A meeting between the Arcadia and El Monte City Councils did not resolve the situation created by El Monte's attempts to annex 310 acres of Arcadia property south of Live Oak Avenue.
The Arcadia City Council will oppose attempts by El Monte to annex a strip of uninhabited Arcadia land located between Peck Road and the San Gabriel River.
The El Monte City Council formally withdrew its petition to annex some 300 acres of Arcadia property south of Live Oak Avenue. Protests to the annexation represented more than 50% of the assessed property owners.
