Catch the Bus to Watch Monrovia vs. Paraclete | Work at Old Blockbuster?

~ If you'd like to go watch Monrovia High take on Paraclete this Friday, but don't want to drive to Lancaster, Monrovia School Board member Alex Zucco suggests the "Wildcat Rooter Bus." For $8, she writes, "you can hop on the Wildcat Rooter Bus and have MHS do the driving. Email Mr. McGinnis (kmcginnis@monroviaschools.net) by Weds., 11/27 at 4pm. Kids must be accompanied by adult -- see you in the high desert!"

~ A correspondent writes that there is remodeling going on at the old Blockbuster building at the corner of Foothill and Stedman. I'll see if I can find out what's happening there.

UPDATE: Planning Division Manager Craig Jimenez responds: "An interior demo permit was recently issued, so that’s what was probably observed.  I believe that the owner is preparing the space to help facilitate future leasing.  City staff has fielded a considerable number of inquiries about the space  from various businesses, but to date, I don’t know that a lease has been signed.  What I do know is that the City has not received any applications for business license yet.  Stay tuned."
