Byron MAC 2013 Objectives
Byron MAC Submitted by: Linnea Juarez, Chair
Activities and Accomplishments The primary goal of the Byron MAC in 2012 was to continue to be the connection between the residents of Byron with the County. During the 2012 Byron MAC meetings the following presentations were made to the community.
• Public Works staff regarding traffic items
• Heart Safe Community Program
• Update from the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office During 2012 the Byron MAC activities and efforts included:
• A successful Community Clean-Up Day held on August 25, 2012. The Brentwood Disposal company brought multiple dumpsters and the event was free of charge to Byron residents. It was a wonderful opportunity for a community clean up and the Byron MAC members and community volunteers, lead by Council member Lopez, assisted several elderly property owners clean up their residences.
• Byron MAC continued to send a representative to the monthly Code Enforcement meetings held at the Supervisor’s office to discuss and set code enforcement priorities for the Byron community. Significant improvement in enforcement and compliance was completed throughout the year.
• The Byron MAC discussed concerns with the Public Works Department regarding the Camino Diablo and J-4 intersection and submitted comments regarding proposed future projects in this area.
• Continued to cleanup weeds around the Byron Community Sign
• Participation with the Heart Safe Communities Program at two community events
