City Manager’s Monthly Message		 
I want to welcome you to the first edition of the City’s monthly e-newsletter.  The purpose of this ongoing communication is to keep our community and organizations informed of the programs, projects, events and happenings in the City of El Monte. I hope you enjoy reading these monthly updates in the future.
Before shifting focus, I would like to take the opportunity to introduce myself.  I was born and raised in El Monte, attended Willard F. Payne Elementary and Charles T. Kranz intermediate schools, ultimately graduating from El Monte High School.  I received my bachelor’s of science degree in civil engineering from Cal Poly Pomona and later received my professional engineering license.
As some you already know, I was recently chosen to serve City Manager for El Monte, after having served as Interim City Manager since October 2009.  Previous to that, I have worked for the City as Superintendent of Public Works and most recently as Deputy City Manager for Community Development, I have worked for the City since 2007 and couldn’t be more excited to serve as the new City’s Manager.
Recently I had the opportunity to be part of a Community-Wide Prayer and Blessing Service for the City of El Monte, which took place at Nativity Church.  The event was coordinated by Father Beto Villalobos, Pastor Wayne Hoglin, from Trinity Church and Pastor Gil De La Rosa, from New Hope Community Church.  Not only did this further set a hopeful tone for the City and 2010, but it also was a great opportunity to bring the community together to pray for local leaders.  I am thankful to the Nativity Church, our City Council, City leaders and all others who joined in to share this special moment for our City.
Even in these tough economic times, several factors point to the positive outlook in El Monte. With a $43 million grant from the federal government in hand, the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) will begin the construction of the much anticipated new El Monte Bus Transit Center in 2010.  The MTA project is expected to go from dream to reality in two years and will double the size of the 35-year-old bus terminal and increase parking, security, bike storage, and travel information for passengers. 
In addition, in 2009 El Monte witnessed the grand opening of a new and improved Sam’s Club and Cathay Bank Headquarters.  These businesses helped increase sales tax revenue and created countless new jobs for the community.  We had a Citywide election in November, which brought in some new faces at City Hall.  We wish our new Council the best and look forward to continuing to improve our City.
As 2010 unfolds, we continue to partner with the development community, businesses, and other stakeholders to improve the quality of life for our residents and City employees to ensure the long-term sustainability of our community.
Thank you,
Rene Bobadilla, P.E., City Manager

Mid Valley News   Written by Administrator    Wednesday, 25 November 2009 09:34

Assemblymember Mike Eng in collaboration with the San Gabriel Valley Water and Cal American Water Companies, hosted the 49th Assembly District’s annual “Operation Gobble” turkey giveaway today. Over 300 turkeys were distributed to various charitable organizations that serve low-income families in the San Gabriel Valley at today’s event, which was held at the Our Saviour Center Kids Campus located in the City of El Monte. 
   “It is a great pleasure to work alongside the San Gabriel Valley Water and Cal American Water Companies again this year and continue the tradition of giving back to our communities,” Assemblymember Eng said. “I believe it is important to serve our neighbors and bring forth the spirit of generosity during the holiday season, especially in times of economic uncertainty.”
   The organizations who received the donated turkeys this year include: Asian Youth Center, Boys and Girls Club of San Gabriel Valley, Boys and Girls Club of West San Gabriel Valley, Church of Our Saviour Center, El Monte/South El Monte Emergency Resources Association, La Casa de San Gabriel and People for People.
