<br />Miss Regina Currieri as student member to the Board of Trustees of the Library. Vote was unanimous.
<br />Utility Commission
<br />Mayor Beltran advised that Councilwoman Cisneros and Councilman Gonzales have submitted memorandums recommending
<br />appointments to the Colton Utility Commission.
<br />Mayor Beltran asked for the City Attorney's report on this matter.
<br />City Attorney Edwards stated the Council Members have received copies of the proposal submitted by the Colton
<br />Citizens Utilities Committee, which has been reviewed by Staff, and the proposed ordinance, establishing a Utility
<br />Commission.
<br />Mr. Edwards continued he would like to suggest the following changes to the proposed ordinance:
<br />On the first page, under that portion outlining the Commission's powers and duties, Item B, should read "Require of
<br />the City Manager, or his designee, monthly reports"; on page two, Item F, should read "To the City of Colton General
<br />Fund as directed by the Mayor and City Council".
<br />City Manager Huffaker also recommended a change to the proposed ordinance, on page one, under that portion pertaining
<br />to revenues of the utilities, Item (a), a period placed after the word "utilities", and the remainder of the paragraph
<br />stricken, which would then read "For the payment of the operating and maintenance expenses of such utilities."
<br />Councilman Rehrer felt that both of the proposals as submitted should be studied in greater detail before the
<br />Council takes any action.
<br />Moved by Councilman Rehrer, seconded by Councilman Hayes, to postpone this item to the next regular Council Meeting,
<br />November 16, 1976. Unanimous vote.

<br />Mr. Arturo de la Cerda, Community Development Coordinator, stated that he has several corrections and changes to be

<br />RECREATION AND PARKS COMMISSION REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
<br />Community Development Programs
<br />Mr. David Lozano, Chairman of the Recreation and Parks Commission, advised the Mayor and Council members that the
<br />Commission will go along with anything the City Council may advise as far as working with Mr. de la Cerda regarding
<br />HUD programs.
<br />Student Members
<br />Mr. Lozano requested the City Council's consideration and approval regarding the appointment of a Student Representative
<br />to the Commission, who attends Colton High School but resides outside of the City limits.
<br />Mayor Beltran stated it has been the practice and policy of the City that any person approved or appointed to
<br />serve on a Commission, Board, Committee, etc., must live within the City limits; however, possibly the City Attorney
<br />could review this matter and make a report at the next regular Council Meeting.
<br />Mayor Beltran also suggested that the Recreation and Parks Commission submit a letter to the City Council justifying
<br />this request.
<br />Study Session
<br />Mayor Beltran stated that recently several Commission and Committees have responded enthusiastically toward future
<br />projects and developments in the City, such as the Multi -Service Center and a Senior Citizens Center.
<br />Mayor Beltran continued in this regard, the Community Development Coordinator was instructed to meet with the Planning
<br />Director, Chairman of the Planning Commission, the Recreation Director, and Chairman of the Recreation and Parks Com-
<br />mission, to establish coordination with these projects and a possible future Housing Program.
<br />Mayor Beltran said in order to continue successfully and gain the in -put needed by all concerned, he would like to
<br />suggest that a study session be scheduled for some time next week with the Planning Director, Chairman of the
<br />Planning Commission, Recreation Director, Chairman of the Recreation and Parks Commission, Community Development
<br />Coordinator, Chairman of the Community Citizens' Advisory Commission, and the City Council Members to define goals,
<br />objectives, responsibilities, etc., and eliminate some of the mounting confusion, so that the City can progress and
<br />move forward harmoniously on these projects, and any other future projects and programs.
<br />After discussion, on Council consensus, a tentative date of Wednesday, November 10, 1976, at 7:30 p. m., was set
<br />for an Adjourned Regular Meeting.

<br />1976, to amend Rule XI of Resolution No. 2240, Personnel System Rules and Regulations.
<br />Mr. Huffaker advised that Staff met with representatives of S.B.P.E.A., and at the conclusion of that meeting,
