Councilman It has been an honor and a pleasure to work for you for Cruz the past 8 years. I represent the City and not just one segment of the community, but the entire community. I mean, the north end, the south end, the east end and west end. I never did represent just the Mexicans, so they call me now, I've always considered myself an American, ' I've fought for this country. Thank youl It so happens I'm one of 7 brothers, and we all served our country well during the call of duty. Therefore, in the future, I hate to see this stigma placed on people of our community. When we run for office, we run for the entire community, not a special group; not a certain section. I represent the entire city, I always have. I did a lot of work for the north side; signals were installed for the golf course people; we had the crossing guards at one time and they had a little dispute between the city and the school, it was the school responsibility, but they wouldn't accept the responsibility, so I fought for, I mentioned it to our Chief, we must take the bull by the horns and do it ourselves, too many children in jeopardy. Then, I'm proud to say for the Senior Citizens, I did a lot for them, during my time in office; and they're a mixed group also. We have the home refurbishing for them also, they're a mixed group of people. In the entire community I never did segregate people from different things of our community. The youth, same for the youth. I've always fought for the youth; gave them better parks, completed parks that are completed now. So I would like to thank you, again, and hopefully, you'll vote for me in November, if there's a special election. Thank you. ' The City Clerk administered the Oath of Office to the Oath of following; Office Eugene F. Moses, Mayor Bruce Latta, Councilman June W. Hart, Councilwoman Councilman Latta made the following statement; Remarks by Well, just very briefly, I just carne from Citrus Councilman College, where I just had to resign, as required by Latta law, as a Trustee to represent the City of Azusa, and I had some regrets, you know, I've been there almost five years. But, conversely, I look forward to spending some time here and developing the same close working relation- ships that I had with the Staff and everybody there at the College, and I want to thank those of you that supported my candidacy and have given me this opportunity, and I look forward to the challenges ahead. Thank you. Councilwoman Hart made the following statement; Remarks by I would like, at this time, to thank the people that Councilwoman Hart voted for me. I will try to represent you as well as I, the same as I would represent myself. We have a very good city, let's keep it that way. Thank you. Mayor Moses made the following statement; Remarks by Mayor Moses I would like to say a few words. I feel that we have won a victory here, but also feel that I have a deep wound, and that wound is my constituent, Mr. Cruz. I've worked side by side with him and as he has said previous to this that he has worked for all of the people of this community, he will be deeply missed. I want to thank the people of Azusa for giving me the opportunity of being their new Mayor and also want to thank the former ,V7 CIVIC AUDITORIUM AZUSA, CALIFORNIA TUESDAY, APRIL 20, 1982 Page 7 Mayor and Councilmen for their years of service to the City of Azusa. As your Mayor I will do everything in my power to conduct city business in a dignified manner. I will try to work with harmony along with my constitu- ents; I will seek a new and progressive approach to the issues that affect our lives. Azusa needs fresh ideas that will blossom our city instead of wilting like a dying flower. However, it's impossible to keep all of the people happy on the issues that affect our lives, but when I make a decision, I will study the problem scientifically, and with your help, and the help of God, perhaps we will come up with a good decision. I want to apologize for certain circumstances that has happened to me during the election, that I had no control of. Once again, please allow me to thank you for your loyal friendship and faith with me. Thank you. Moved by Councilman Latta, seconded by Councilwoman Hart Adjourn and unanimously carried to adjourn.
