Will Monrovia Be Chopped in Half at Foothill? | Will PD Lose Money?

Also, in his weekly letter ( http://goo.gl/1dTQm ), Monrovia City Manager Scott Ochoa writes:

 

~ that the most recent redistricting maps show "a united Monrovia for State Senate and Assembly districts, but a split community for the Congressional map. The dividing line would be Foothill Boulevard. For Monrovia's part, we submitted a letter emphasizing that the City Council wishes to be included into one district for Assembly, Senate and Congressional purposes.

 

~ that through the state budget process, the Monrovia Police Department could lose $100,000. "Our Finance Division is working with the PD to ensure a workable response if this comes to pass."

 

He adds that State Controller John Chiang's refusal to pay state legislators - whom Chiang says failed to come up with a balanced budget - "should put a serious fire under the Legislature to get something done."
