FROM: Supervisor Tom Torlakson Contra
Costa
DATE: July 23 , 1985 County
SUBJECT: NAMING OF STREETS IN OAKLEY
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: , I have discussion with and
received the attached corespondence from Louise Allington of
the Brentwood Historical Society regarding the selection of
street names for the rapidly-growing Oakley community.
I agree with her suggestion that builders use the
family names of those who have contributed to the history of
beautiful Oakley. I feel this would be an appropriate way
to recognize these long-time residents who have contributed
greatly to the Oakley community.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to the Community Development
Director to Communicate this good suggestion to the
builders in the Oakley area.

Dear Tom:
Thank you for your attention in Brentwood at the
Historical Society meeting. Our Oakley is growing
rapidly, housing which requires new streets , names are
needed for these streets .
Our family is in the history of our beautiful
Oakley, and I would like to ask you to call the attention
to some of the builders in our area to use ,names of
people that made Oakley what it is today.
"AUGUSTA"
I feel there are few families in Oakley that
can claim residency for five (5) generations , three '
living in Oakley today.
"ALLINGTON"
This has been my name for over fifty five years , I
have lived here in Oakley since 1912, have received many
honors here.
"BYEB."
Lenny Byer and my daughter Joanne Byer have done
much for our town, and Lenny has-been a volunteer fire-
man for over thirty (30) years .
"CHASTEK"
You should know that name as he worked very hard
on the Oakley Bethel Island Sanitary Board, and was
a trustee in our school for many years .
Very truly yours ,
Louise Augusta ington
