MONTEBELLO - Molinari, Barajas and Gomez win

| |
MONTEBELLO -- The votes are in and Bill Molinari, Art Barajas and Frank Gomez have been named to the city council.

Mayor Rosie Vasquez finished fifth in a field of nine candidates.

Councilwoman Mary Anne Saucedo-Rodriquez did not seek another term.

Council members Robert Urteaga and Kathy Salazar face a recall election that is expected to take place in February.

That recall stems from a 15-year exclusive contract the city awarded to Athens Services to hall all the commercial and residential garbage in the city.

Athens Services contributed the majority of the $548,000 they raised to political campaigns in Montebello this fall.

Molinari, Barajas and Gomez were not the benefactors of those funds.
