During a recent city council meeting, Pastor Terrence Shea of the Arcadia Police Department opened the session with an invocation, reflecting on the tragic shooting in Monrovia that claimed lives. He emphasized the importance of support for first responders and the community's youth, particularly those graduating from Arcadia High School.

The council convened at 5 PM for a study session focused on establishing an inclusionary housing ordinance, which will be revisited in July or later. Additionally, a discussion on the council certificate policy was postponed for two weeks. The council also unanimously voted to hold a closed session regarding anticipated litigation stemming from a written threat.

City Manager Dominic Lazzaretto provided updates, including a letter from the Olivares Madruga Law Organization urging the city to approve a specific project. He suggested rearranging the agenda to prioritize public hearing items, allowing community members to engage more effectively.

The meeting also featured a presentation from the Pasadena Humane Society, showcasing an adoptable dog named Patsy, a five-year-old boxer mix. The shelter is promoting a \"Senior for Senior\" program, waiving adoption fees for seniors adopting older pets. June is designated as \"Adopt a Shelter Cat Month,\" with no fees for cats over six months old.

The council's agenda continued with a public hearing on a resolution, marking a significant engagement with community issues and initiatives.
