170 Mrs. Bea Hernandez, Director of the Multi -Service Center, spoke from the audience advising that although the home for shut-ins carried the name of San Salvador, it actually has no connection with the church and is not run by the church, the home is privately operated. Mrs. Hernandez suggested that the Council allocate these federal funds as they were intended, instead of trying to give everyone a piece of the pie. Mr. Frank Rebollo, Manager of the Chamber of Commerce, spoke to the Council Members with regard to the Agua Mansa Restoration project, advising that the $10,000 amount that had been suggested would not actually help this project get going, as the com- mittee had investigated the purchase of three parcels of land in South Colton, to get the project started, at a price of $150,000, approximately $50,000 a piece. Mr. Rebollo said he was concerned about the funding, and felt that an amount of $10,000. would have to be placed in the bank and wait to be utilized until such time as ad- ditional funds could be added to that amount for any practical use. Mayor Gonzales stated he felt that $10,000 would be a start for the Restoration Program, and suggested that possibly these funds could be used for consulting services for the project. After additional discussion, Councilman Rehrer moved to adopt the three priorities as listed in Staff's report, with a possible amendment to the application at the time of next year's funding. Motion seconded by Councilman Hayes and carried, with Councilwoman Cisneros voting NO. Annexations South 35 City Attorney Edwards gave a report on Colton Annexation South 35, which had been left in abeyance from a previous Council Meeting. Mr. Edwards advised that after researching this matter, it has been determined that the protests received do not constitute more than 50 percent of the total valuation of the property recommended for annexation, therefore, it would be in order for the City Council to approve Annexation South 35 and adopt Resolution No. 3867. Moved by Councilman Hayes, seconded by Councilman Rehrer, to approve Resolution No. 3867. Unanimous vote. RESOLUTION NO. 3867 - A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE ANNEXATION OF CERTAIN UNINHABITED TERRITORY DESIGNATED "COLTON ANNEXATION SOUTH 35" TO THE CITY .OF COLTON AND WITHDRAWING SAID ANNEXED AREA FROM COUNTY SERVICE AREA NO. 38 AND IMPROVEMENT ZONE G OF COUNTY SERVICE AREA NO. 389 AND COUNTY SERVICE AREA NO. 70 AND IMPROVEMENT ZONE A OF COUNTY SERVICE AREA NO. 70. Mr. Terry L. Donnelly, 11881 Bostick Avenue, Colton, stated he felt that if the City Council could develop a better communication with the people from La Loma Hills, it would definitely help the relationship. Community Centers Mayor Gonzales read in full a letter dated November 10, 1978, from Mr. Jess Perez, Architect for the two Community Centers, regarding the status of the two Centers, the minor items remaining for completion, and use of the Centers. Mrs. Bea Hernandez, Director of the Peter S. Luque Multi -Service Center, addressed the Council Members on the present condition of that Center, stating it is really a shame that the City has spent all of this time and money, and neither Center is ready for occupancy or service to the public. Mrs. Hernandez suggested the City Council take action on these matters, and do something about getting these build- ings ready for occupancy. Councilman Rehrer stated if there are still discrepancies remaining at both of the Centers, they should not be open or in operation until everything is completed and ready for use. Parsnnnel Mr. Crespin Luna, former Police Officer for the City of Colton, spoke to the City Council requesting reconsideration of his appeal for an "E" Step classification and raise as presented at a previous Council Meeting.
