Deal For Monrovia In-N-Out Officially Sunk

A plan to bring an In N Out to a plot of land near Home Depot officially fell through.

Monrovia's In-N-Out burger ambitions hadn't looked good since property negotiations ended in June, and now city officials say that the deal to bring Double-Doubles to town is officially dead.

In-N-Out announced its intentions to purchase a piece of Home Depot's land to build a drive-thru restaurant, but negotiations with the home improvement company have now been completely abandoned, according to the Pasadena Star-News.

The burger company already , so it is unclear from the Star-News report if any talks had ever been rekindled.

"Unfortunately, we did have a few challenges come up with that location and we’re not moving forward on it at this time," wrote In-N-Out spokesman Carl Van Fleet in an email to Patch in June. "We still absolutely want to be in Monrovia but, right now, I really can’t speculate as to the timing."

In-N-Out is still looking at other sites in town and the city is working to connect property owners with the company, the Star-News reports.

I agree Bill. Enough snippin' and tail bitin' and finger pointin'...I do find it amusing to thinkRead More what would happen if people who wanted to have a parade/carnival just made it happen. Let's make a parade and carnival, not war.

A California city will never prevail in a lawsuit against the STATE. All CA. cities must merge toRead More sue in mass under Federal RICO laws while we still have Federal laws. Filing alone at the State level is useless. Wake up people.
