Arcadia, E. O. Rodeffer, and Public Storage won a round in their legal dispute with the city of El Monte. On March 12, Superior Court Judge Norman Douds ordered El Monte to allow San Gabriel Valley Water Company to dig up El Monte streets to install water lines to a Public Storage building partially located in Arcadia.
Arcadia requested a rehearing of a Court of Appeals decision favoring El Monte in one of the 3 lawsuits involving a Public Storage facility in South Arcadia.
The Arcadia Mounted Police Reserve has filed a lawsuit against the City. The suit apparently stems from the City taking over the organization's headquarters (City owned property) due to members' refusal to allow the City access to their financial records.
