Ms. Lorenza Vasquez, 677 South 8th Street, Colton, spoke in oppositih'9
<br />to the General Plan Amendment, stating she did not feel this was ap-
<br />propriate for the area. Ms. Vasquez asked what had happened to the
<br />committee that was to be formed with residents of Colton, to work to-
<br />gether on future amendments to the General Plan and industrial devel-
<br />opm,jrts in the City. Ms. Vasquez also asked if the public hearing
<br />had been advertised properly and the property owners notified.
<br />Councilwoman Garcia stated the City is industrializing South Colton
<br />and the residents of that area want the properties to be zoned proper-
<br />ly. Mrs. Garcia said apparently some of the Planning Commissioners
<br />are confused about this issue, as they thought this matter was in con-
<br />formance with the General Plan, and it is not, this is an amendment to
<br />the General Plan.
<br />Planning Director Aguilera responded that the Staff report on this
<br />matter was very clear as to what was being requested and what the
<br />recommendations were, and that it was in fact an amendment to the
<br />General Plan.
<br />Mayor Huntoon asked if anyone else desired to speak on this matter.
<br />Moved by Councilwoman Cisneros, seconded by Councilman Rios, the
<br />Public Hearing was terminated. Unanimous vote.

<br />CITY MANAGER'S REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
<br />Assessment District No. 79-1
<br />Mr. Joseph E. Bonadiman spoke to the Council Members with regard to
<br />payment for services rendered as Civil Engineer for Assessment Dis-
<br />trict No. 79-1, advising there was a contract between his company and
<br />the City, approved and signed in 1980, providing compensation in the
<br />amount of $62,400. for design, engineering and surveying services for
<br />Assessment District No. 79-1.
<br />Mr. Elliott advised there is a fund for Assessment District No. 79-1,
<br />that could provide for this payment, however, these funds have been
<br />invested in a 30 -day CD Account, and, if the Council does decide to
<br />make this payment to Mr. Bonadiman, Staff would request the monies
<br />be taken from another source, and after January 19, 1984, that amount
<br />could be reimbursed from the Assessment District Account.
<br />After additional discussion among Council Members, Staff, and Mr.
<br />Bonadiman, moved by Councilman Rios, seconded by Councilman Rehrer,
<br />to refer this matter back to Staff for study and report back to the
<br />City Council at the next regular meeting.
<br />ORAL COMMUNICATIONS:
<br />Mr. Frank Smith, 270 West F Street, Colton, suggested the City do
<br />something about having the railroad tracks leveled out on the west
<br />side of Colton Avenue, near F Street.
<br />Ms. Lorenza Vasquez, 677 South 8th Street, Colton, spoke again about
<br />the General Plan Amendment in South Colton, asking if the residents
<br />are still not happy about the action taken, can they bring this back
<br />to the City Council again for discussion.
<br />City Attorney Edwards stated if there is any resident in the City of
<br />Colton that wished to discuss any matter with himself, a Council
<br />Member, or Staff, they were certainly welcome to do so, and they are
<br />always available to the citizens of the community.
