In the Matter of )
Commending F.A. "Bud" Stewart ) RESOLUTION NO. 85/717
Today we commend F.A. "Bud" Stewart for his many years
of service to the citizens of Concord as well as Contra
Costa County.
A civil engineering graduate of the University of
California, Berkeley, whose career was interrupted by his
service in World War II, Bud came to Concord as City
Engineer and Public Works Director in 1953 and at that time
he designed Concord' s first City Hall building.
Becoming Concord' s second City Manager in 1960, Bud
launched the many projects needed by the growing city. With
ability and enthusiasm he charted a course for the projects:
new streets, street maintenance, storm drains and additional
facilities, development of new as well as older sections of
the City, revamping of the financial machinery of the City,
and organization of the City personnel staff.
He was one of the original group of civic and business
leaders in Contra Costa County who envisioned the immense
contribution to the Bay Area to be made by a cultural center
and he worked with his characteristic energy to bring the
Concord Pavilion into being.
We, the members of the Board of Supervisors, commend
F.A. "Bud" Stewart for his years of dedication to the
quality of life of the citizens of' Concord. His integrity
and compassion are examples of the best in public service.
