Residents and volunteers described a community-led renovation of a park in Monrovia and used brief public remarks to urge more people to volunteer.
"I wasn't going to sit back and let something like this go without putting a 100% of my effort into it," said Speaker 1, a resident who described personal involvement in the effort. Speaker 2 said, "We took on this enormous task renovating this beautiful park in spite of the many challenges we face," framing the work as a significant local undertaking completed through volunteer effort. Speaker 3 encouraged listeners to get involved: "There's always a chance to volunteer someplace ... become a volunteer."
The speakers emphasized community connection and local knowledge. Speaker 3 contrasted outside descriptions with lived experience, saying residents can "feel from the heart" things an outsider might not understand and suggesting people consult the community website or social media for historical background. The comments closed with Speaker 2 rallying the crowd with, "Let's get that w from Monrovia. Let's go."
No budget figures, funding sources, or formal motions were announced in the remarks, and the speakers did not specify city approval or contract details. The comments functioned as public encouragement for civic involvement and a short report-back on a volunteer renovation; no subsequent procedural steps were specified in the transcript.
