San Gabriel Valley

Is South El Monte's mayor living in city hall?

The saga continues. A city councilman in South El Monte says that mayor Blanca Figueroa not only works unusually late (getting national attention) but actually lives at the city hall. She denies it. The item is from the San Gabriel Valley Tribune's Leftovers from City Hall blog, which also reported that the nearby city of Rosemead will allow its lone chicken slaughterhouse to expand.
