The City Council has decided to spend about $100,000 for vines on the 4.5 miles of sound walls the Metropolitan Transportation Authority will build along the 210 Freeway in 2004-2005.
Habitat for Humanity proposed building 20 homes on city-owned land in South Arcadia that was previously used by the Arcadia Police Department horseback unit. The parcel's access would be via Live Oak Avenue. Assembly Bill 637 requires Arcadia to develop low-income housing. City Council did not make a decision, leaving options open.
