Old Town Trolleys May Go Away :-(

Monrovia's two Old Town Trolley buses are at the end of their useful life and are in constant need of repair. What to do?
 
Well, refurbishing them costs $100,000 per trolley. New ones run $250,000 each. The city can retire them or retain the trolley service and perhaps serve a larger portion of the city. City staff is recommending retiring the trolleys and using the left-over Prop A money (which is funding them) to do some tie-in with the Gold Line when it arrives.
 
The City Council will decide the question at its March 15 meeting. Agenda: http://goo.gl/Ty7qs
