Public Meetings to Discuss Impact of Gold Line Extension

The draft environmental impact report for the Gold Line Foothill Extension from Azusa to Montclair will be available for public review at two upcoming meetings.

From the Gold Line Construction Authority:

The Construction Authority released the Draft EIR on August 21, 2012 for the proposed Foothill Extension from Azusa to Montclair. The Draft EIR evaluates the impacts of the  proposed 12.3-mile light rail extension, which includes six new stations (Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, Pomona, Claremont and Montclair) and two new grade-separated  crossings (at Lone Hill in Glendora and Towne Avenue in Pomona). The proposed extension is planned to run mostly at street level and parking is planned at each station. The Draft EIR is circulating for a 45-day review period.

REMINDER: Two public meetings are scheduled to receive comments on the issues raised in the Draft EIR, and the document's accuracy and completeness.

I kind of lost interest when, along with the Lion's barbecue, the carnival disappeared but thereRead More were always people I knew in the parade so I kept the date. Now that the parade is gone, it's just another festival day in town. Times change and this kind of under-stated event is what people want. The old Monrovia Days used to be a day we could all get together and have fun. Now, people are too busy with their own lives and "community" doesn't mean what it once did.

Interesting. There was one person who decided that letting Monrovia Day slide with nothing doneRead More wasn't gonna play. BY HERSELF and her family and friends planned all of it and set everything up. That person was Keely Milliken. It was astounding how much got done, and without financial support or the usual cast of players to do anything. There were many pitfalls, permits that needed approval and what not...Perhaps if you voiced your displeasure to the City Council and volunteered your personal money and weeks of planning and organizing you'd feel a lot better about it. I can say with absolute conviction that Keely should hold her head high, and I was glad to be a part of it. With almost no money, the people that volunteered their time and efforts are not ashamed, but rather glad that at last minute a albeit mellower version, something nice was created. Sometimes being able to apologize is the biggest most wonderful quality a human can have. I am wrong, often, but not on this one. Great job Keely and family/friends. Thank you for all the hard work.

Danielle, you can call City Hall and they will direct you to the correct people. These peopleRead More worked hard to plan this with what little money we have.

Cool presentation. Many of us have had our own encounters and all of us have seen numerous photosRead More and videos so your creative approach freshened it up for us.

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.
