440 Councilwoman Cisneros asked if anyone had contacted the senior citizen group with
<br />regard to this insurance and the payment of the $100. Mrs. Cisneros was concerned
<br />as to whether this group could afford the payment, and if this matter had been dis-
<br />cussed with them.
<br />Mrs. Mandy Karr, 1265-3/4 Mt. Vernon Avenue, Colton, stated she has assisted the
<br />group with the sale of produce in the park on various occasions, and that there
<br />are many senior citizens very upset about the use of the Community Center. Mrs.
<br />Karr stated this sale of produce is not a money -making deal, and she was sure
<br />there was no one among them that could afford to pay the $100 premium for insur-
<br />ance.
<br />Mayor Gonzales asked about Father Keane's offer to use Immaculate Conception Hall
<br />for sale of the produce.
<br />Recreation Director Max Lofy stated he had called Father Keane to confirm this, and
<br />Father Keane told him that was correct, that he had offered the use of Immaculate
<br />Conception Hall for the sale of their produce.
<br />After additional discussion, Councilman Hayes offered to contact various organi-
<br />zations in the City of Colton to see if he could raise the $100 needed for the
<br />premium payment on the liability insurance for the senior citizen group.
<br />Mr. William A. McCool, 1305 Mojave Drive, Colton, commended Councilman Hayes and
<br />the City Council for their humanitarian efforts, and stated we are so close now
<br />to getting this matter resolved, so lets get something started. Mr. McCool then
<br />gave Councilman Hayes a $100 bill to pay the premium for the insurance.
<br />Councilman Hayes gave the $100 to Mandy Karr for the senior citizen group.
<br />Moved by Councilwoman Cisneros, seconded by Councilman Hayes, authorizing use of
<br />Municipal Park twice a month for the sale of produce by the senior citizen group,
<br />with the stipulation that liability insurance be purchased naming the City of Colton
<br />as an added insured. Vote was unanimous.
<br />ORAL COMMUNICATIONS:

<br />Director of Building & Safety John Twiss spoke to the Council Members regarding the

<br />Mrs. Mandy Karr, 1265-3/4 Mt. Vernon Avenue, Colton, suggested to the City Council
