Councilmember Sergio Jimenez described discussions at an Independent Cities Conference in San Diego about wildfire preparedness, homelessness and the use of technology to aid public engagement. He noted Monrovia’s work toward permanent housing solutions and described the local Pathways program, which coordinates housing placement, case management and services — including arrangements with local hotels — to move people off the streets and into more stable accommodation.

Mayor Pro Tem Dr. Kelly and Mayor Chevlin reported on regional networking about the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics and early preparations in the San Gabriel Valley, including a gubernatorial or executive order to create a task force (as described at the conference). Dr. Kelly said cities are exploring ways to partner with foreign delegations and other municipalities to host visiting athletes and delegations.

City staff and the mayor also highlighted local economic-development activity: a Long Beach industry event drew attention to Monrovia’s technology firms, including a local manufacturing presence that works in lidar and robotics. The council noted the Monrovia Area Partnership (MAP) leadership academies returning this fall with youth and adult classes focused on civic skills and job-readiness.

No formal policy actions or votes were taken in the reports section; the presentations were informational and primarily used to update the council and the public.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Monrovia City Council Recap | August 5, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","At the Aug. 5 meeting councilmembers and staff reported on the Pathways homelessness program, upcoming MAP youth and adult leadership classes, Monrovia’s tech corridor, and early planning for the 2028 Olympics.","taxTitle","Monrovia, Los Angeles County, California","taxId",52085,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6585835,"Monrovia City Council approves consent calendar (CC1–CC9) unanimously",39,173000,212000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5588913-2b4d48bff383c6aab318eac6cde90834&start=173&end=212","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5588913-2b4d48bff383c6aab318eac6cde90834/thumbnail_173000.jpg","/articles/6585835/Monrovia/Los-Angeles-County/California/Monrovia-City-Council-approves-consent-calendar-CC1CC9-unanimously","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6585835-a3b330923d3226324e0769759b74f4ea/orig.mp4?Expires=1770450623&Signature=obmBcyoCcT7f7EnlXLOebpQv2FUgz1FSpxPbD7DKCrpZSU58OgzWHC6x4t3zdIB5j9or9qy-WgXNp0DcLIzGuCCbnDWmBoV7Jp8ig3~NTKrOHidABCoJS2ccPAEZ~LBKobAJjQx~34w5rR3HDgCPX5DetItZHmdSw0DGrM9y1cTIZly0AgKlxMwKy-TP~qH2JMNyzUIQFQZs6aqmbNxrZpOj6k6iMQEYyLE8A9D9KWxArm9g7JQ8eH6VdRMZFZv3QbBiaFGIIa6Hda8jiwsnZQKb657sjcVNqayNkK9Ua7VdgvJiDc91rJK1sWrnInoJZ68sGO7h8lR25z5PuK7EDA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Monrovia City Council approved its consent calendar (items CC1 through CC9) unanimously at the Aug. 5 meeting, the council’s recap reported. The consent vote occurred about nine minutes into the meeting and covered routine administrative items; no items were pulled for separate discussion.

The meeting recap did not list detail for each item. City staff and the hosts of the meeting’s recap noted that agendas and minutes are posted on cityofmonrovia.gov and that residents may review individual consent items and request that an item be pulled at a future meeting.

No separate roll-call vote or individual tallies were provided in the public recap; the meeting video and official minutes on the city website should contain the formal vote record and any item descriptions residents want to review.","The council unanimously approved nine consent-calendar items at the Aug. 5 meeting; the items were taken as a block and no individual votes were recorded in the meeting recap.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6585839,"South Magnolia construction blamed for lost customers at station near train depot",41,447000,488000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5588913-2b4d48bff383c6aab318eac6cde90834&start=447&end=488","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5588913-2b4d48bff383c6aab318eac6cde90834/thumbnail_447000.jpg","/articles/6585839/Monrovia/Los-Angeles-County/California/South-Magnolia-construction-blamed-for-lost-customers-at-station-near-train-depot","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6585839-eb2692863b2ad9a2a4cb3af323d3d275/orig.mp4?Expires=1770450623&Signature=foIjtBXvkHzGeVE9BExEe0UZIstgcesLONtjsponSpGGw5hGMnej9Hx7npdT0-4GctEaP0ODbd4ztrZ-rFkzLZgz3IgHmRK1QoOnzdzzLtC2aDnQTx-XwMFowZDNoi2QrKStKqLKGQ5zt7UJYwC1YXPzG591Z7p0RpOKkpxKfEzy7852wMGGUD72flsCe8kzoSHS4ewkUTDPrV-afSUCnt5t0yFy8Qj9jhz3vFDiOE2fcx3zWBrNsOhMqJwEbdieDxRudsu8aGDvRmKm4XanWVFESMvvM-~Lwfb3W05fEWAZ6e7~8KrfKoU3xtlEmJ1g5x2HkZFpDUhC9LG2zwqSEw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Meldia Mirabe, who identified herself as a family member and operator of the 76 gas station near the Monrovia train station, told the City Council during public comment on Aug. 5 that prolonged street construction on South Magnolia Avenue has reduced customer traffic and contributed to business closures in the area.

City Manager Dylan responded that some work is delayed while the contractor coordinates relocations with Southern California Edison and that crews plan to begin moving equipment to reduce the obstruction. Dylan said staff recognize the street closure is an eyesore and an impediment to local businesses and that the city will try to obtain more information for affected merchants.

Mirabe told the council she felt her business had been “ghosted” by Metro and had not received adequate communication about timelines or mitigation. Council members did not take action at the meeting; the remarks were part of the public-comment period and staff reports noted that the city manager will follow up with additional information to the speaker.

The council held no public hearing or vote tied to the South Magnolia construction during the Aug. 5 meeting; any changes to construction sequencing or mitigation would depend on the contractor and utility coordination and follow-up from city staff.","A business owner told the council Aug. 5 that ongoing street work on South Magnolia has reduced traffic to her 76 gas station and other nearby businesses; city staff said the delay involves coordination with Edison and contractors.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6585844,"Resident urges 4-way stop at Greystone and Ivy after series of collisions",92,275000,367000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5588913-2b4d48bff383c6aab318eac6cde90834&start=275&end=367","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5588913-2b4d48bff383c6aab318eac6cde90834/thumbnail_275000.jpg","/articles/6585844/Monrovia/Los-Angeles-County/California/Resident-urges-4-way-stop-at-Greystone-and-Ivy-after-series-of-collisions","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6585844-0512b3e9c2cd89323afae45007a4b4b1/orig.mp4?Expires=1770450623&Signature=h6vr1j-IrOqFAtwZ5E8FCqdokRrkuwZimUkTTULE0KH8Fc6O-lrIEwtlMO44Eoc4vSzHA8OETRUc2VEW7wLWDfjnEJxAiwcjjkg99kxKbbPSXHo0fnLsHzMBRgzpI-gVsg-MofI4uMzeduC3x1EBCs7HOYSa7Pfj9GAPC~zGzKAetgVxKgC5kMFnc9DR5FseFge4myueeYfOG0ncGD70oII-BKB0jAceF2Ejnwhj8Ts5xY~luu3LSd8pBBZcKno-L-mfzcAgcZXeeSl1lt3IEmMDfdmUI73oZtzn~ctQfwhbJLiUeQCYc5uBNY0cXxA5VKtmwyQMtWeJfKLwc8WxVg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","John Schneider, a longtime Monrovia resident, told the City Council on Aug. 5 that repeated collisions at the intersection of Greystone and Ivy Avenue are causing safety concerns and urged the city to install a four-way stop.

The comment came during the public-comment period of a brief council meeting that began at 5 p.m. and closed at about 5:40 p.m. The council did not take immediate action on the intersection; City Manager Dylan told Schneider that any new stop sign would require review by the city’s traffic-safety process and pointed him to an online survey tied to Monrovia’s Safe Streets and Roads for All effort.

The survey, Dylan said during the reports section, has been extended for 30 days to collect more resident input about crosswalks, stop signs, speed cushions and similar changes. The city manager also noted residents may attend traffic safety committee meetings and that the interactive map on the city website allows people to mark locations of concern.

Council members did not vote on any traffic changes at the meeting. The discussion was limited to public comment and staff guidance on the next steps for requesting a traffic-safety review.

The meeting record shows the Aug. 5 council session was shorter than usual so there was no public hearing or agenda item devoted to the intersection; formal engineering review and committee recommendations would be the next step before any traffic-control devices were installed.","At the Aug. 5 Monrovia City Council meeting a longtime resident described recent collisions at Greystone and Ivy avenues and council staff pointed residents to an extended Safe Streets survey and the traffic review process.","actionData","errors"]
