The Season is upon us!
It is the Holiday Season.
Where did the year go? The City of Action is in the midst of a
lot of action in the downtown area. Storm water, sewer, and
water pipes are being replaced as part of the Downtown
Beautification Project which began in the fall. When completed,
downtown Riverbank will have a whole new look, complete with a
park (Plaza del Rio) at the corner of Third and Santa Fe
Streets.
The Crossroads Shopping Center
is still growing with current work that includes a Chevron gas
station and Save Mart Supermarket. A Best Buy is planned to
open in 2008.
In January, the Community
Awards Banquet will be held on Saturday, January 26, beginning
at 6:00 p.m. in the Riverbank Community Center. This annual
event is the evening set aside to announce the new Man of the
Year/Citizen of the Year (or MOY/COY, as it is fondly referred
to), the new Youth of the Year (or YOY), and the Business of the
Year (or BOY). The MOY/COY Club, which is comprised of Man of
the Year and Citizen of the Year recipients, select the winners
from the MOY/COY and YOY nominees. The BOY is selected by
Riverbank Chamber of Commerce members. Dinner tickets will go
on sale in early January, $17.00 per person.
Also in 2008, terms expire for
City Mayor Christopher Crifasi, Vice Mayor
Virginia
Madueño, and Councilmember Kathy Anaya. In November, Riverbank
residents will decide who will help move the City forward.
As we wrap up 2007, the City
is working with the Salvation Army Extension to provide toys for
local needy kids and lap blankets for the elderly. If you can
donate to either program, please call Norma at 209-863-7153.
The City of Riverbank staff
would like to wish you and your family, a very, Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year!
