Who Knew? Monrovia High's Front Lawn Designed for Overflow Parking

There has been some debate on Facebook after people noticed cars parked on the front lawn of Monrovia High School during this Sunday's meeting of Fellowship Monrovia, the church which meets at the school. Some said it shouldn't be allowed and others said that such parking is regularly allowed for other large events. Then School Board member Ed Gililland posted that:

"The area was considered for pavement, but considering the amount of surface that does not allow rain water to permeate into the ground, the decision was made to put in pavers that allowed grass to grow and water to permeate into the ground. It is designated and designed for overflow parking."
