RECREATION AND PARKS COMMISSION REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
<br />36i
<br />Mr. David Lozano, Chairman of the Recreation and Parks Commission, referred to the ordinance creating the Recreation
<br />and Parks Commission, and read Section 6 of the ordinance, outlining the duties and powers of the Commission.
<br />Mr. Lozano continued that the Commission feels they have been treated unjustly, and should have had some say and
<br />input with regard to recent proposed projects for Municipal and Veterans Parks. Mr. Lozano asked exactly what
<br />duties does the City Council desire that the Recreation and Parks Commission perform.
<br />Mr. Lozano stated that any recreational activities of the City should be channeled through the Recreation and Parks
<br />Commission.
<br />Mayor Beltran said he does not want the Commission to feel that they have been overlooked, and once these projects
<br />move forward, the Commission will be required to offer input and recommendations.
<br />Mayor Beltran suggested that the Community Development Coordinator Arturo de la Cerda, Recreation Director Max
<br />Lofy, and representatives from the Citizens Advisory Commission and the Recreation and Parks Commission, get to-
<br />gether to discuss and resolve these problems.
<br />Mayor Beltran then referred to previous correspondence from Dr. Owen J. Cook, Superintendent of the Colton Joint
<br />Unified School District, with regard to establishing a Joint Committee, consisting of two School Board Members and
<br />two City Council Members, for the purpose of studying the joint use of school facilities for recreational purposes.
<br />Mayor Beltran stated it is his feeling that, rather than have two City Council Members serve on this Joint Committee,
<br />it would be more beneficial and logical to appoint the Recreation Director, the Chairman of the Recreation and
<br />Parks Commission, and the City Manager as the City's representatives to the Committee.
<br />Councilman Gonzales felt that inasmuch as this matter involves recreational activities primarily, the City's repre-
<br />sentatives to this Joint Committee should consist of those persons more directly involved with recreational programs
<br />and facilities. Councilman Gonzales said the Recreation Director and the Chairman of the Recreation and Parks
<br />Commission have first-hand knowledge and concern of the needs and requirements for recreation in the City.
<br />Councilman Hayes said that he agreed with Councilman Gonzales, and felt the City's representatives to the Joint
<br />Committee should consist of the Recreation Director and the Chairman of the Recreation and Parks Commission only.
<br />Moved by Councilman Gonzales, seconded by Councilman Rehrer, appointing the Recreation Director Max Lofy, and the
<br />Chairman of the Recreation and Parks Commission David Lozano, as the City's representatives to serve on a Joint
<br />Committee, with Board Members of the School District, to review and discuss the joint use of school facilities for
<br />recreational purposes. Vote was unanimous.
<br />ORAL COMMUNICATIONS:
<br />Councilman Hayes suggested that Staff prepare a Resolution of Sympathy on behalf of Robert L. Schnore, long-time
<br />City Employee, who had recently passed away.
<br />Moved by Councilman Hayes, seconded by Councilman Rehrer, instructing Staff to prepare a Resolution of Sympathy, to
<br />be presented to Mrs. Betty Schnore, on the recent death of her husband, Robert L. Schnore. Vote was unanimous.
<br />EXECUTIVE SESSION:
<br />The City Council adjourned to Executive Session at 10:55 p. m., to discuss Personnel Matters. The City Council
<br />reconvened at 11:06 p. m., all members present.
<br />rMIXi : ► u

<br />meet for an Adjourned Regular Meeting on Wednesday, October 13, 1976, at 7:30 p. m., in the Council Chambers.
