Arcadia, East San Gabriel, Walnut and Rowland Heights had some of the highest life expectancy rates in the county. Arcadia's life expectancy is 84.7 years. Females of Asian-Pacific Islander descent have the highest life expectancy in the county and all four of the SGV communities with the highest life expectancy rates also have high populations of residents of Asian Pacific Islander descent. In general, the report found that people in affluent communities tend to live longer while residents of poorer cities in more urban parts of the county had some of the lowest life expectancy rates.

It appears likely the Arcadia City Council will make a 180 degree turn at the July 6 meeting, when the proposed ban on wood roofs will once again be on the agenda. At the meeting last week Pellegrino and Lojeski had apparently changed their minds. In any case the second reading has been held over to the next meeting. Concerned citizens were given a chance to speak on the issue during the time reserved for audience participation.

Area librarians agree that recessionary periods create a greater demand for library services. It is ironic that this comes at a time when libraries are hurting from budget cuts. Arcadia and Monrovia have suffered most in this regard, cutting down on personnel and new book purchases and, in Arcadia's case, closing it's audio-visual department and reducing hours.
