LONGTIME MONROVIANS EXUDE THEIR PASSION FOR THE CITY

Summer in town: Monrovia’s Welcome Wagon - won’t you be my neighbor Susie LING, GUEST CONTRIBUTOR

I

f you’ve moved to Monrovia after 2003, you may know about Monrovia’s unique Welcome Wagon.

Over the last fifteen years, John Watson and Hal Leavens

collate information packets and plan their driving itinerary to go say “welcome neighbor” to new homeowners. They visit about three dozen homes each time, 15 times per year, for 15 years.

That’s about 10,000 doors SEE MONROVIA MEN PAGE 10

MAP Block Party Will Unveil a Second Neighborhood Treasure Susan MOTANDER motander@yahoo.com

A block party has been planned for Aug. 18, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the 500 block of East Cypress Avenue. This Monrovia Area Partnership (MAP) party will be highlighted by the unveiling of a Neighborhood Treasure plaque in honor of Kate Wright. In addition to the plaque, an art piece in honor of and representing her life will

also be revealed.

In the early 1900s, Monrovia was known for the great quality of its air and was recommended as a location for tuberculosis (TB) patients. Wright, who was known throughout the community as “Aunt Kate,” unselfishly worked for low-income residents who suffered from TB. She asked for no payment or government assistance; she just wanted to help SEE BLOCK PARTY PAGE 11

MAFA HOLDS LAST ART WALK OF THE SUMMER

Monrovia Homeless Count Results Released

Event to be held on Aug. 25

Homeless on the streets - down, those living in their cars - up

Staff WRITER editorial@beaconmedianews.com

Every summer the Monrovia Fine Arts Association (MAFA) hosts an “Art Walk” in Old Town Monrovia.

The last of this year’s walks will be held on Aug. 25 from 7 to 10 p.m. in the 400 and 500 blocks of Myrtle Avenue.

These are the two blocks south of Library Park from Lime Avenue to Colorado Boulevard.

This is a great chance to stroll among the shops in the evening when it is cooler, enjoy the art, and interact with other Monrovians. And it is far less crowded than during the Friday Night Festival.

Susan MOTANDER motander@yahoo.com

At the end of last month, Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) released the official results of its 2018 homeless study. In Monrovia that study was conducted by 30 Monrovia volunteers on Jan. 23. The

count included those living on the streets, or in makeshift shelters such as tents, and those living in a car, van or RV/camper.

LAHSA reported that the number of those living on the street went down to nine from 14 in 2017 and that of those living SEE HOMELESS COUNT PAGE 11

Sierra Madre Search and Rescue Team Works With Temple Station Deputies

In 1961 the Sierra Madre Search and Rescue (SMSR) team was fired by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department (LASD). The team was adamant in maintaining its identity and not be absorbed by the department.

Fred LaLone, one of

the founding fathers of the team and president at the time, stood his ground and made it known that despite this rift, the team would "be available to any agency or persons needing assistance."

These days SMSR has a solid, beneficial relation-

ship with LASD, specifically the Temple Sheriff's Station. The SMSR mission remains unchanged, in the words of Fred LaLone, "We were organized to search for the missing and bring out the injured."

Summer in Town: Remembering Monrovia Veterans Susie LING, GUEST CONTRIBUTOR

I

n 2006, 21-year-old Raul Mercado was killed by a roadside bomb in Iraq.

Mercado was born in Monrovia, earned a 3.5 gradepoint average at Monrovia High, and was a member of the track and basketball teams.

His goal was to buy a home for his mother, a hotel worker. At the lance corporal’s memorial service at Immaculate Conception Church, Mayor Rob Hammond struggled to say something meaningful to Raul’s mother. Hammond said, “I will never forget your son. Raul Mercado will remain in all of our hearts." Raul gained U.S. citizenship posthumously.

Monrovia has lost others to war. Norman Ross, now 94, was born on Huntington Drive in 1926. He volunteered for World War II along with other African-Americans from Monrovia like Leroy Criss and Julius Parker.

Ross said in an earlier interview, “I volunteered because I didn’t want to be drafted into the Army. I didn’t want to live in a foxhole. I was in the Navy which was segregated. I was a third class steward’s mate on the USS Lyon, AP-71. We weren’t allowed to do anything else but be cooks and service. I was in the Philippines and

Okinawa. We were attacked in Okinawa and it was our job to hand ammunition to the gunners. If the gunners were killed, we had to take over. All I wanted to do was go home.”

Ross continued, “When I came back from the service in 1946, we couldn’t join the American Legion at Recreation Park because we were black. That was the Monrovia Armory. So we started our own post which was the Phillip Adams Post.

All the blacks that came back from the service started it.

There were about 20 of us at the Post. We forced them to let us use the building.”

Phillip Adams died in 1944 while serving his country.

Born in 1921, Phillip was the oldest son of Frank and Mary Adams, and grandson of John

B. and Adeline Morris Adams – founders of Monrovia’s AME Zion Church in 1886. Thelma King, Phillip’s younger sister said, “Mama was so heartbroken about Phillip.”

As a child, Hammond heard about the Vietnam War every day. He said, “By the age of 12, I already knew what I would do if called to the service.” America’s direct involvement in that war ended in 1973, and American soldiers came home to mixed sentiments. Many quickly put away their uniforms and – as best they could – their memories.

In 1996, Hammond got a

CD-ROM called Beyond the Wall and out of curiosity, made a list of names of Monrovians who died in Vietnam.

Hammond went to a basketball game that night and showed his list to longtime Monrovian, Andy Montgomery. Montgomery recognized Edward Borrego’s name and said, “That’s my dad’s stepbrother.” As Hammond continued to circulate the list, another said, “Tommy Sands was my friend from school.”

A local paper printed Hammond’s list. For every one of those names, many came forward. Hammond said, “One woman wrote me and told me

that one of our names was her husband and the father of a son the soldier never met. The young husband had been pressured by his father to join the military for the benefits, and when he was killed, it fractured that family. She was appreciative that Monrovia would not forget her boy’s father.”

The oldest postseason football game in America has some surprising origins. The Rose Bowl was created by Pasadena’s Valley Hunt Club, an organization synonymous with fox hunts, debutante balls, and dinner jackets, which is still around today. These East Coast transplants were the original organizers of the Tournament of Roses in 1890, which was a mid-winter celebration with competitions in jousting, polo, chariot races, and tug-of-war. The point, at

least at first, was to invite their old friends from back east to show them what a swell town Pasadena was. It grew and changed every year, and in 1902 the first football game was added to the festivities and made permanent in 1916. Rose Bowl Stadium was erected in 1922. Here’s hoping they return to their roots and bring back ostrich racing at halftime this year.

Lowrider Band Performing at Blues Festival Eric Burdon and Jerry Goldstein didn’t feel like Long Beach was a battlefield when first meeting Harold Brown and Howard Scott in 1969. “War” certainly was declared, however.

“The World is a Ghetto,” “Why Can’t We Be Friends?” and the thematic “Low Rider” have been songs of the community for over 40 years.

Founding members Harold Brown and Howard Scott are locals to the area; in fact you might catch Harold without drumsticks trekking the streets! The founding members of War, with the exception of the late Charles Miller and “Papa” Dee Allen, are combusting this Labor Day weekend at the New Blues Festival’s mainstage under the new name, Lowrider Band!

This year the band’s mission is for the people of Long Beach to educate and innovate

when harnessing the power of blues. There are plenty of fans who may not know, but the music of the Lowrider Band is an intercultural music bound together by the tradition of blues.

Take a listen to the recordings of Lee Oskar’s harp or Brown’s syncopated double shuffles.

It’s clear that the spice of the band comes from more than Long Beach salsa. The members of Lowrider Band have over 17 professional albums and are certified platinum on two of their greatest hits. This band is dynamite in Long Beach which blew a new hole in the world of music. Thank goodness they’re featured on the New Blues Festival Stage this year at El Dorado Park. The festival will be on Sept. 1 and 2. Tickets are available online at newbluesfestival.com.

Tracing Route 66 through Monrovia, Arcadia, and Pasadena Jackie Gonzales jackiegonzales3392@gmail.com

The 2,451 miles that make up historic Route 66 are taking center stage at the 2018 Los Angeles County Fair.

With at least seven different attractions based around the country spanning road, this year’s fair will provide visitors with an in-depth look at Route 66 and remind everyone from Santa Monica through the Foothills how history weaves

its way through their city.

The primary Route 66 attraction is Alt 66, a fine art exhibit presented in the Millard Sheets Art Center.

A focus on the experience of those who traversed the historic road over the years drives the exhibit. Comprised of 14 different installations with contributions by 18 different artists from the greater Los Angeles area, the exhibit seeks to explore the unique experiences of different ethnic minorities

on the route while creating snapshots of the historic landmarks and attractions along Route 66. The entire exhibit is designed to be an immersive experience and allows visitors to understand the history of not only this famous highway, but the country itself.

for the Welcome Wagon.

The John and Hal partnership is quite special. They exude love for Monrovia and Monrovians. John said, “We have no goals. We are not sponsored by any group. We just want our neighbors to appreciate the unique qualities of Monrovia. We just want to say hello.” Hal and John, 84 and 81 years young respectively, are involved in a lot of community efforts and they can answer questions ranging from Monrovia’s water source to the history of the Monrovia airport. While working on his yard one day, John’s neighbor joked, “It’s about time you put a little work on your home.” John answered, “This is just my house; Monrovia is my home.”

John moved to Monrovia in 1989. Born in rural Kansas, John was selling trucks parts and had gotten into competitive dancing as a hobby.

He met another competitive dancer, and it was this bride, Katie, that brought him to Monrovia. John and Katie have been teaching ballroom and swing dancing for years. They were also co-presidents of Monrovia

Historic Preservation Group (MOHPG) in the 1990s. It was in January 2003 that John and Katie thought to visit new homeowners to encourage the protection of Monrovia’s architectural heritage. But Katie often had to work on Saturdays at the hospital, so John needed a new partner.

John chose Hal, a 42-year veteran salesman that can talk to just about anybody.

Hal said, “I was born in Boston.

My Northeast Yankee roots can be traced back to 1640. I didn’t even know where Los Angeles was when I was sent by my company to California in

How To Tell It’s Time To Do Something About Your Diabetes

By Dr. Tamika Henry, MD, MBA

Often times I’ll get someone come into my office who has diabetes and they’ll tell me, “I feel fine. I mean, yeah my blood sugar is a little high, but I don’t’ feel any different.”

That’s one of the biggest issues with Diabetes - you can’t feel the damage it’s doing to your body! It silently goes about destroying your capillaries without you taking any notice. And before you know it, you could be looking at black toes and talking with your doctor about amputation.

So, if you can’t feel the damage being done by Diabetes, how can you tell you need to do something about it?

The Best Way To Tell If You Need To Take Action Against Your Diabetes One the biggest mistakes you can make when you have Diabetes is not paying attention to seemingly unrelated warning signs.

I know of one women who ignored all of the early warning signs that her Diabetes was out of control and ended up having a heart attack!

Your body is designed to tell you something is wrong pay attention to it!

For example, if you have frequent headaches as a Diabetic, it can be a sign that you’re blood sugar has been too high for too long and it’s damaging the blood vessels in your brain.

1958. I didn’t know about the oil wells, the palm trees…” Hal met Liz and they wanted to buy a little home for their growing family. It was their real estate agent that introduced them to Monrovia. “We could barely afford the house. It was $16,500! That’s $77/month including insurance, taxes, and interest.” Hal retired in 1999 and “the floodgates opened.”

You see Hal and John volunteering just about everywhere in town.

MONROVIA READS VAN RETURNS The Monrovia Reads Van will return to its regular program of rolling out library services to Monrovia’s elementary schools. As with last year, the program will bring books directly to the schools’ after school programs. Students will be

Another common sign is blurry vision. If your eyes are constantly changing, needing new glasses every year, it can be a sign that you need to do something about your Diabetes.

And, of course, some of the most common early warning signs are uncontrollable blood sugar despite trying to eat healthy, also constantly being thirsty and frequent urination are other early warning signs. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms it’s a sign that you need to take action.

Learning To Listen To Your Body It’s not easy right away - we tend to dismiss small things that bug us but don’t disrupt our day. A small headache, ringing in your ear, a tingling sensation in your toes, all go unnoticed until something more major happens - like your toes turning black.

The easiest way to learn to listen to your body is to write down how you feel. If you’ve written down that you’ve had a headache for the last 25 days out of 30, it’s a sign you need to make a change. But, if you don’t write it down, you won’t remember.

So, when you check your blood sugar, take a minute and write down how your feeling generally, if you notice anything bugging you, and keep track.

Being aware and listening to your body will help you catch those early warning signs that you might otherwise miss.

Now, What If I Told You That You Could Actually REVERSE YOUR DIABTES? Would you be interested in learning more? I bet you would. And, I have a very special offer just for readers

in makeshift shelters decreased this year from 10 to seven. That is the good news.

The bad news is that the number of those living in their vehicles has significantly increased. The count identified that those living in their cars rose from two in 2017 to 18 in 2018. Those living in a van increased from two to four. Finally the number living in their campers went from 10 to 23. LASHA uses a complex formula to determine, based on the type of vehicles, and the number of homeless living it them. So the total of those living in vehicles last year was 15.

New School Year Begins for Monrovia Students We have all seen the kids trudging back to school, some with happy, shining faces and others at a snail’s pace. But they are not the only ones returning to the classroom.

Teachers are also getting back to the classroom.

Last week Monrovia Unified School District held a welcome breakfast for its new employees. The principals from each school used the opportunity to outline the accomplishments of their respective schools and the plans for the upcoming year as well as to introduce the new teachers at each site and to thank their community partners.

The Performing Arts Department, which is spread district-wide, outlined the program it has for a comprehensive elementary arts program at each grade level.

In addition there is now a Theater Arts Academy at the high school as well as an expansion of the dance program. The department has also established relationships with The Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens and the Pasadena Symphony. The new teachers in the department are Samantha Wei in art and Siranoush Soukiassian with music.

At Monroe Elemen-

tary the focus is on the dual language immersion to Spanish program. Its community partners are Fellowship Monrovia and Monrovia BMW. Monroe is welcoming Diana Zavala, teaching fourth grade to the young Lions.

The Mariners at Mayflower are involved in “Code to the Future” and its computer immersion program. Katherine Martinez is joining the staff to teach fourth grade.

Protravel Proves That Travel Agents Are Actually Thriving

Arcadia Realtors and CAR Hope to Eliminate ‘Moving Penalty’

Are you missing out by not using a travel agent? emily g. peters emilygpeters@gmail.com

T

ravel agents are sometimes regarded as a relic of the past, lumped in with rotary phones or watching TV shows on an actual television.

Yet Protravel International is proving the opposite: travel agents are not only alive, they’re thriving.

The sentiment is embodied in Gloria Lopez, manager of Protravel International’s Sierra Madre branch. Once based in Pasadena, Protravel moved to Sierra Madre in 2017 when it acquired Madre Hills Travel as part of their expanding services. Lopez joined the team about 17 years ago, but had been working in travel long before that.

“I married an airline employee and we went to Europe for our honeymoon.

It was then that I began to think about helping others travel,” shared Lopez, who started helping out at a local travel agency in 1975. She soon ventured into business ownership when she launched

her own travel agency, but industry changes compelled her to join the Protravel team in 2001.

“The 1990s were a downer for individually owned travel agencies because airlines stopped paying commissions on airline tickets,” she explained. And it wasn’t just airline commissions that changed—the advent of online booking also made it tough for some agencies to survive. While Lopez knew she’d have to adapt to stay relevant, one major event

threw that relevance in the spotlight.

“When Sept. 11 happened, we were able to assist many clients on that day, even those who weren’t our clients. They realized how important it was to be able to reach a real live person with their needs,” said Lopez. “It’s one thing to search the internet for the least expensive coast-tocoast fare, but another thing when there’s special requests, land arrangements and other complexities that cannot be done using the internet.”

Part of Protravel’s success is rooted in their ability to handle these complexities.

“My team specializes in upscale leisure, corporate and entertainment travel.

We all have a knowledge in a particular field or region—so whatever the client’s question, we have the answer,” said Lopez.

In its continuing effort to address California’s unprecedented housing supply crisis and eliminate the “moving penalty” that severely restricts the ability of seniors, disabled residents, and victims of natural disasters to relocate, the California Association of Realtors (CAR) has filed a revised initiative with the attorney general for preparation of title and summary for the November 2020 ballot. The new initiative would: - Remove the moving penalty for seniors 55 and older, the disabled, victims of natural disasters, and those whose homes are located on contaminated property, allowing them to carry their current Proposition 13-protected property tax assessment level to another home of any price, anywhere in the state, any number of times.

- Eliminate intergenerational transfers of primary residences and other inherited property being used as income-producing properties without reassessment.

- Address abuses by

commercial property owners who avoid property tax reassessment by means of “creative” transfers.

“Filing this new initiative will allow CAR – in the event the ‘moving penalty’ is not eliminated this November – to immediately begin gathering signatures to qualify the new initiative for the November 2020 ballot and reinforce our commitment to making tax fairness a reality,” said Arcadia Association of Realtors 2018 president, Margaret Garemore. “This new initiative will provide for property tax base portability, reform the intergenerational transfer laws, and address the true ‘split roll’ problem – corporations gaming the current property tax reassessment system.

And, most significantly, it will raise money for schools and local governments,” stated White.

The Risky Business of Job Searching Angela COPELAND,

I

angela@copelandcoaching.com

recently heard a stand-up comedian make a joke about dating.

They compared the experiences that men have versus women when they go on a Tinder date.

They joked that when a man gets ready for a blind date, his biggest worry is that it will be

boring. He will have wasted an hour of his life, and perhaps some money.

When a woman prepares for a blind date, her biggest worry is a bit different. In her worst case scenario, she may be physically hurt during the date.

Before going on the date, she makes sure to text her friends, to let them know where she is, in case she doesn’t return.

This stand-up routine is meant to be a joke, but it highlights how different an experience can feel when two parties perceive they have different levels of power. Job searching has a similar dynamic.

From the hiring manager’s perspective, a bad interview is a waste of an hour. They’re going to have to keep searching for candidates. It’s a

Is Media Really ‘The enemy of the American people?’

Terry MILLER tmiller@beaconmedianews.com

F

or most of the past 19 months, U.S. President Donald Trump’s horrific media ambush has garnered international attention and reaction unlike any other administration in recent memory.

Editors of the Boston Globe had a splendid idea last week. They asked news organizations throughout the United States to voice their concern. The Globe’s editorial board said: Trump has labeled the news media “the enemy of the American people” a

month after taking the oath of office.

The Boston Globe is proposing that newspapers across the nation express their disdain for the president’s rhetoric on Aug. 16 with the best weapon they have: their collective voice.

A CNN analysis concluded, Trump used the word “fake” — as in “fake news,” “fake stories,” “fake media” or “fake polls” — more than 400 times.

And last week, at a political rally in Pennsylvania, Trump told his audience that the media was “fake, fake disgusting news.”

For the record, Mr. Presi-

dent – we are not fake, nor disgusting. We are part of a time-honored network known as the Fourth Estate which strives to write stories with accuracy, insight, and diplomacy.

“Whatever happened to honest reporting?” he asked the crowd. Then he pointed to a group of journalists covering the event. “They don’t report it. They only make up stories.”

Venice’s Gifts to the World Are as Unique as the City Itself May s. ruiz MayChu@att.net

I

taly is one country I am happy to go back to again and again. And one place that is distinct from any other Italian city is Venice.

Seasoned travelers will even tell you it is the most un-Italian city. Because it separated itself from the rest of Italy, it had to establish itself as an independent state. Its location made it a maritime power and afforded access to other influences which added to its wealth of arts, architecture, and culture.

Since I absolutely love pasta vongole and tiramisu, both of which are typically Venetian, I don’t need any other reason to go back to Venice. But a trip to this dazzling city on the water is definitely all the more enriching because of its long history and glorious past.

Venice produced renowned artists.

The palaces we visited contained the most spectacular works of Italy’s greatest artists – Bellini, Canaletto, Canova, Tintoretto, Veronese, among others. Even the humblest homes in this city boast of priceless paintings by famous painters.

Moorish influences, not seen in other Italian edifices, are on display at St Mark’s Basilica with its mosaics, the arches on its façade, and the Islamic lanterns on top of the dome. Former residences like the Doge’s Palace and Ca’ d’Oro, and the fondacoes (trading factories and warehouses) have architectural elements that reflect those of mosques. They are all reminders that Venice was once a trade center that linked the Adriatic and Mediterranean Seas to Constantinople, Egypt, and Syria.

Venice abounds with trattorias and ristorantes. You don’t have to eat at expensive restaurants with fancy dress codes, your most satisfying gastronomic experience can be found in the hole-in-thewall trattorias.

Because Venice is known for masks, we weren’t going to leave Venice without bringing home an authentic Venetian mask. Other Venetian specialties are Murano glass and Burano lace, two products that symbolized wealth and class during the city’s years of economic prosperity and imperial power.

Venice is the venue for La Biennale di Venezia (Venice Film Festival), which is celebrating its 75th anniversary.

Held on the island of Lido, it is one of the ‘Big Three’ film festivals alongside the Cannes Film Festival and Berlin International Film Festival.

The magnificence of Venice is clearly evident to the 55,000 tourists who descend to this jewel of a city every single day. It is one travel destination that will remain unforgettable for me.

Each time I visit, I see another aspect to it and I’m awed by its beauty all over again. But even those who haven’t been there are touched by it in some way. Venice’s influence – whether it’s related to art, clothing, food, or movies – reaches far and wide.

Venetians call their city ‘Serenissima’ – the Most Serene Republic – not because it’s peaceful (the presence of so many tourists guarantees it’s anything but quiet), but because it still reigns supreme. And Venice’s gifts to the world are as unique as the city itself; they are a reflection of the splendor that is Venice.

Travel Lions,Tigers, and Gondolas at Two California Zoos Greg aragon gregsgetawaytravel@gmail.com

I

love zoos. I love the awareness they bring to the plight of animals and the joy and intrigue they bring to kids of all ages.

So when I heard that two of my favorite California zoos recently added a couple of must-see attractions, I knew I had to investigate.

In March, the San Diego Zoo unveiled a massive, 27-foot-tall bronze lion statue at its entryway, and in June, the Oakland Zoo opened the 56-acre California Trail Expansion, featuring a soaring gondola ride over lush, hilltop habitats.

The new landmark lion at San Diego Zoo is known as Rex. The statue was designed in honor of Rex, the lion that inspired the creation of the Zoo in 1916. Legend has it that Rex arrived in San Diego as part of the Panama-California International Exposition. After the Exposition

Arcadia City Notices SUMMARY OF ORDINANCE NO. 2356, AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA APPROVING ZONE CHANGE NO. ZC 1801 AND TEXT AMENDMENT NO. TA 18-01 TO REMOVE THE DOWNTOWN OVERLAY FROM THE CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT ZONE, AND INCREASE THE MAXIMUM RESIDENTIAL DENSITY AND HEIGHT IN THE DOWNTOWN MIXED USE ZONE (“DMU”) AND IN THE CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT (“CBD”) ZONE, ALLOW AN IN-LIEU PARKING FEE, AND APPROVE A NEW CITY CENTER DESIGN PLAN

Pursuant to Government Code Section 36933 (c), the following constitutes a summary of Ordinance No. 2356 introduced by the Arcadia City Council on July 17, 2018 and adopted August 7, 2018 at its meeting held in the City Council Chambers, 240 W. Huntington Drive, Arcadia, California.

Ordinance No. 2356 increased the residential density in the Downtown Mixed Use (“DMU”) Zone from 30-50 units per acre to 80 units per acre, increased the building height limit in the DMU Zone from 50 feet to 60 feet, increases the residential density in the Central Business District (“CBD”) Zone from 13 units per acre to 80 units per acre, and increased the building height limit in the CBD Zone from 48 feet to 60 feet. The approval also included the removal of the Downtown Overlay from the CBD Zone, allowed an In-lieu Parking Fee as a parking option in the Downtown area and the approval of a New City Center Design Plan, which will provide additional design guidelines for new development in the Downtown area.

Concurrent to this request, the City Council, at its July 17, 2018 meeting, approved General Plan Amendment No. GPA 18-01 under Resolution No. 7227 that increased the residential density to 80 units per acre and the maximum building height to 60 feet in the DMU and CBD Zones. The approval also included minor changes to the General Plan Land Use and Community Design Element to clearly define the CBD and provide consistency with the Development Code.

An Addendum to the 2010 GP Update Environmental Impact Report and 2016 Development Code Update Mitigated Negative Declaration was approved under Ordinance No. 2356 and Resolution No. 7227. Pursuant to Sections 15162 and 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines, based on analysis presented in the Addendum, the approved changes would not result in any new significant impacts. In addition, the approved changes did not result in any substantial increase in the severity of any previously identified significant impacts and no new mitigation measures were required.

A certified copy of the full text of the Ordinance is available for review in the City Clerk’s Office at 240 W. Huntington Drive, Arcadia, California.

This Ordinance shall be in full force and effective thirty-one (31) days after its adoption, and published and posted as required by law.

Monrovia Wildcats Catch Serious Case of Football Fever

Arcadia Apaches Ranked No. 4 in Preseason Poll

A

fter a long and grueling offseason, those Friday night lights will finally return as the Arcadia football team embarks on its 2018 campaign, starting with its first game against La Salle on Friday.

This is arguably one of the most highly anticipated seasons in recent memory, as the Apaches have progressively improved with each passing year under the guidance of Andrew Policky. The team’s recent success and impressive outings in passing tournaments this summer have garnered a No. 4 ranking in the Preseason CIF-SS Division 8 Football Rankings.

This makes them the highest ranked team in the San Gabriel Valley with the next best being Arroyo at No.

7. Only Rancho Mirage (No. 1), Santa Ana (No. 2) and Woodbridge (No. 3) are ahead of Arcadia.

Despite boasting an already talented roster, the Apaches have reloaded themselves with senior transfers Jabari Kindle, Ahmad Lipscome and Dyllan Wright.

The trio came from Cathedral High School and is poised to make Arcadia all the more lethal.

Rolandiss Whitener will return for his junior year looking to lead the Apaches offense. Last season, the 5-foot-9 slot receiver was an All-CIF First Team selection, recording 766 receiving yards and four interceptions.

Though Arcadia went 8-4 overall and 6-1 in league last season, the team was ousted by eventual champions Katella

41-35 in the second round of CIF. This season, Policky and the rest of the Apaches will have their hands full week in and week out.

“We don’t have a ton of bodies out there but we do work hard and we are talented and I think if we stay healthy, the sky is the limit,” Policky said. “The last couple of years we have been pretty good, not great, but pretty good and we have a chance to finally break through the glass this year and get over the hump, win the league title and make some noise in the playoffs.”

After shaking off the opening-game jitters against La Salle on Friday, Arcadia will round out preseason action with games against Cathedral and Hart. The Apaches will begin league action on Oct. 5 with a game against Glendale.

The time has finally arrived for the Monrovia Wildcats, as the football team’s first game of the 2018 season is just around the corner.

It’s been a long and busy summer for Monrovia after somewhat underachieving last season, easily taking the Rio Hondo League title but falling to Yorba Linda

in the opening round of CIF playoffs.

Despite the shortcomings, newly hired Head Coach Chris Williams is ready to breathe some new life into a talented Monrovia squad that only went 4-7 in 2017.

Plenty of training was done over the summer that paid dividends in several

passing tournaments where the Wildcats showed a lot of promise.

Monrovia has a 10-game schedule on their plate with nonleague matchups against Burbank, Alta Loma, and Don Lugo. The team will then begin Rio League play on Oct. 5 with a clash of the cats against the South Pasadena Tigers.

Pasadena and Muir Set to Make Big Noise in Pacific League The Pacific League has gotten all the more competitive over the summer as the Pasadena and Muir football teams are ready make a big run for the league title this season.

The Bulldogs and Mustangs are hungry to put themselves on the radar in a tough Pacific League that includes defending champ Burbank, No. 4 ranked Arcadia, and Crescenta Valley.

Muir did finish fourth last season with a 4-3 record, but it was not enough to qualify them for the playoffs. On the other hand, Pasadena did not enjoy the same success as they finished sixth with a 2-7 record.

The last time either program made the CIF playoffs was when Muir qualified during the 2016 season.

However, the Mustangs were quickly

knocked out in the first round by Antelope Valley.

Pasadena will kick off the season with a road game against San Marino this Friday while Muir will play their entire two-game preseason on the road starting with a game against Charter Oak. Pacific League action will begin on Oct. 5 for both squads as Pasadena takes on Hoover on the road while Muir hosts Burroughs.

The Rise of China’s Basketball Yao Ming’s New NYBO China Youth Basketball Development Program Yao Ming and his closest basketball associate, Mr. Lu Hao, are on the move to continue improving China’s status in the world of competitive basketball. Ming

has already brought China’s interest and recognition in basketball to an unbelievable level through his dominance in China’s Olympic participations and, of course, through

his other relationship with the NBA and the Houston Rockets. Currently, China’s interest in basketball has been greatly elevated through the passion of both Ming and Hao,

a long-time business associate and friend. Currently, there is a greater effort to increase China’s basketball development to an even higher status.

Yao Ming has recently become the person in charge of his country’s development as China’s newest basketball Chairman and the Director of Basketball Operations. One of his goals is to use this opportunity to develop China’s overall youth basketball skill that will turn China into a greater, stronger future challenger, so China can compete at a much higher, global level.

One of San Gabriel Valley’s youth basketball development training programs, The Play Smarter Basketball Classes (PSB), have been traveling to different parts of Asia, conducting their annual training camps for the past fifteen summers.

This summer, Coach Marquis, founder of PSB and two of

his coaching staff have just returned from several of their Asian summer camps that were located in six different areas throughout Mainland China.
