The official event to fittingly inaugurate the Ignacio Madera, Jr. Waste Water Treatment Plant was held at the International Center for Trade.
"It's an honor for me to be here today, Mr. Madera, this has been a long time coming," stated County Judge David Saucedo, " On a personal basis, I want to thank him for all he's done I know that he started his public service at a very young age. I remember he's from the star-studded class of 1980. By 1982 he was already running for office, he ran for school board and I know because my father made sure all our family voted for him. What you did showed Mayor Cantú, Mr. Nevarez and myself that you're never too young to represent your community," concluded Judge Saucedo.
Rodriguez accepts season-long suspension
RONALD BLUM, AP Sports Writer
NEW YORK (AP) — Alex Rodriguez ended his extended and acrimonious fight with Major League Baseball on Friday, withdrawing a pair of lawsuits and accepting a season-long suspension that marks the longest penalty in the sport's history related to performance-enhancing drugs.
Rodriguez, who has steadfastly denied using banned substances while with the New York Yankees, made the decision nearly four weeks after arbitrator Fredric Horowitz largely upheld the discipline issued last summer by baseball Commissioner Bud Selig.
"I think it's a good move for him," former Commissioner Fay Vincent said. "A-Rod had no chance legally, and the commissioner got his authority validated."
Rodriguez was among 14 players suspended last summer following MLB's investigation of a Florida anti-aging clinic accused of distributing banned substances. Given the harshest punishment, A-Rod was the only player to contest his penalty.
