He said there had been positive movement and recognized <br />there was slow progress in areas that encompassed another City and/or the County, <br />such as the intersection at La Cadena/Barton which is a County area. He thanked City <br />staff who had been very helpful. <br />District <br />Councilmember Sanders read Councilmember Beltran's farewell speech wherein he <br />thanked the citizens of Colton for allowing him to serve them as Mayor and <br />Councilmember. Indicating his heart was no longer in it and it was now time to stop, <br />Councilmember Beltran declared the last four years had been hard to endure when he <br />faced three recall attempts, one lawsuit and allegations of improper campaign <br />reporting. He warned citizens not to listen to false prophets and not sign any recall <br />attempts - other than those used for major crime. He concluded that it had been an <br />honor and a privilege to have served the community since 1962. He wished the City <br />Council much success in their endeavors. <br />2 <br />DEC 31996 <br />
