OF
'CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
In the Matter of Honoring )
DIANE LONGSHORE ) RESOLUTION NO. 89/ 679
Diane Longshore of " the Concord City Council was elected in 1980.
On November 21, 1989, she will step down after nine years of
service. Prior to coming to the city council, Diane owned her
own business, Reddi-Rooter Sewer and Drain, and she was also a
real estate broker. Diane ran for city council because she felt
that business needed a stronger voice in city government.
Among her many significant contributions to the general health
of the city, Diane considers one of her most important actions
to be the privilege of having a say and providing input for the
economic development and environment of Concord.
Diane also takes pride in her involvement with innovative
programs on housing. She went to Sacramento to work with
Housing and Community Development to set up a loan program for
residents of apartments and condominiums, which enabled them to
purchase their units rather than having to relocate. She worked
for a housing mix in Concord seeking to include all levels of
housing, not just afforable, so that there would be a balanced
mix in the community. She also played a role in the
establishment of senior citizen housing.
Diane was also involved in the setting up of the independent
child care administrative programs which evolved into the Contra
Costa Child Care Council.
Diane was very involved in the negotiations for the contract
with Bill Graham for the Concord Pavilion. She is justifiably
proud as this endeavor turned around the economic viability of
the Pavilion.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Supervisors
congratulates and honors DIANE LONGSHORE for her many years of
service to the City of Concord as an elected official.
PASSED AND ADOPTED ON October 17, 1989, by a unanimous vote of
the board members present.
