<br />with the Statewide General Election to be held on November 7, 1978, to fill
<br />the vacancy of a City Council member which was created when Councilman Frank
<br />A. Gonzales was elected to the Office of Mayor.
<br />Mrs. Bea Hernandez, 258 East N Street, Colton, stated she was concerned about
<br />the Council Members continuing to operate without a full City Council, and in
<br />all fairness to the tax payers and for full representation, she felt the
<br />Special Election should be held in June, instead of waiting until November.
<br />City Attorney Edwards quoted from the Government Code, Section 36512, ad-
<br />vising that if the City Council does not fill the vacancy by appointment,
<br />then an election shall be held to fill the vacancy, and such Special Elec-
<br />tion shall be held on the next regularly established election date not less
<br />than ninety (90) days from the call of the Special Election.
