  1. Monrovia's New Zoning Code (R -L)- There are many of us who feel the dangers of mansionization have still not been addressed properly. The R-L zone regulations still allow overdevelopment. Well-respected cities with good property values such as La Canada Flintridge, San Marino, Sierra Madre etc. etc. have much tighter regulations on size.
