City Council: City wants funding for proposed new air quality regulations; Women's History Month; Inclusionary Housing discussion

At its next meeting (agenda here) the Monrovia City Council will consider ...

~ Sending a letter to the South Coast Air Quality Management District saying that while the city supports the district's plan to reduce Nitrogen Oxides from gas-fired water heaters, it thinks there should be some funding for homeowners and business people to compensate for the increased cost of complying with the proposed regulatory change. Details

~ Proclaiming March as Women's History Month. Details

Also, there will be a study session at 5:30 p.m. to discuss a proposed Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. Such ordinances require developers to include a certain percentage of affordable housing units in new residential developments.  Details.

    2. Not entirely true. Talk to a plumber. Parts are getting so expensive and difficult to get that you will effectively have to get a new one.
