General Municipal Election announced for April 10, 2018 to elect three city council members for Districts 2, 3 and 5. (This will be the first election since switching from at-large elections to district elections.)
The American Red Cross chapter in Arcadia has laid off 10 of 11 employees, citing a large budget deficit. Chapter officials say all services will continue, with help from staff from the Los Angeles and San Gabriel/Pomona Valley chapters. Most of the laid off staff were trainers who taught first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
