Parents and Founder of the Bel-Air Parents Club-1951 First of all congratulations to all of the students who attended the summer session at the Bel-Air school. The District and Staff of Bel-Air School and parents. I cannot possibly put on one sheet of paper all of the information that I can .give at this time regarding the West Pittsburg History. You the students have been appointed by me as my helpers to gather and add to what I have already gathered from the old-timers and the new-timers plus yourself. We will be a team of historical searchers of the West Pittsburg area. So join me this day and make this an event that you will be proud of. Here is my first story about your school. The Mt. Diablo School District bought the property which the Bel-Air School is on called the 110"Nara Ranch" . Initially the property belong- ed to the Federal Government, when Ulysess Grant was the President ofthe United Stated on August 1, 1872.. The land was sold for $1.25 an . acre and the 0"Nara family bought 160 acres. This included the Bella Vista area, Mt. View, Hanlon and down to the railroad tracks of which there was no- tracks at that time. The 0"Nara family bought the property to have a ranch for their family and farming was the main thing at that time. A gas station was built at the corner of Bailey Road and Willow Pass which the O 'Hara Brothers operated for many years. That is where Taco Bell is noW located. on The Shell Chemical Plant was/the first ranch area and was owned by the Wight Family. This family came from Holland also were farmers when they, started here in the West Pittsburg area. They were the first Settlers here around 1850. At this time I would like to mention more,Pioneer families who lived in West Pittsburg; Bernard, Chris, Albert and Lenord, & Mary :.ries family; Bernard & Geralding (Kennerl_v) Levada family; Robert & Eileen O 'Hara & the brothers John and William, George, & Eleanor.

We were not just called West Pittsburg at that time but :ha4• separate names according to the area we lived in, such as: Home Aerts , Bel-Air Tract; Enes Tract; Orbisonia Heights; Shore Acres ; Manor Drive ; In closing I would like to acknowledge the names of the first Principal who was in charge of the Bel-Air School when it first opened Mrs. Loretta Lipe and her secretary 1:vas Miss Joan Reynolds. I would like to thank whoever was responsibly -,'-is great day and may we have many more.

CLERK BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OTHER TOWNS OF THE COU I `CONTRA COSTA CO. BAY POINT The town of Bay Point is situated on a tract of government land lying between the Los Medanos Grant on the east and the Monte del Diablo or i Pacheco Grant o►1 the south anti west. The land was first patented to IJ. eK H. Smith by President U. S. Grant. Smith sold his preemption and home- stead rights to Daniel Cunningham. This part of the tract bordered the bay shore. Where the Smith lumber plant now is, was the site of the old I Cunningham homestead. The other part of the tract where the business and residential parts of the town are located, was upon land patented by • '+;`y"' President Grant to Mr. Clark, who in turn sold to A. H. Neeley, a friend of Mr. Cunningham. The Cunningham heirs and Mr. Neeley sold to C. A. Smith, a large lumber manufacturer of Minneapolis, Minn., who had decided to locate his Western business in close proximity to San Francisco s {.; ;:..• and manufacture and distribute his product. This was in 1907, when Bay � . I Dolt was a tole bog. Mr. Smith arranged to purchase 1500 acres with one and one-half miles of tidewater frontage from the heirs of Dan Cunningham and A. . ... . I I. Neeley. The deal was consummated and the nucleus of the town was started on November 26, 1907. William Smith, from Pittsburg, started the first general merchandise store in 1903-1909. The first residence was erected by William Buholtz in 1904, the second by Samuel Gilroy that same year. The original name of the shipping point was Seal Bluff. The Copper Bing Smelting Company erected a smelter and docks at a cost of $1,375,- 000. "They closed down February 15, 1903. Ll 1490 there was a ware- I; „'',,.r.:.. .. house built at that point, and this was the first and only warehouse ever ' located at Bay Point. Bay Point is served by the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and San.Fran- cisco-Sacramento Short Line railroads. The town is divided into two units. J'hat part lying between the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe and the bay is devoted to manufacturing; and that between the two roads and t.:'. the foothills, to residence property and business places. The. main Pitts- ,`>>; burg and Martinez highway passes through Bay Point, and also the main county highway to Oakland. In 1914, as a war measure, yards were established by the Pacific •,•... Coast Shipbuilding Company to build ten emergency fleet ships, Diablo being the first built. Four hundred men were given employment. The town of Clyde was built to house the employees of the shipyard. It is is - ----- - - i f i 160 CONTRA COSTA COUNTY !: now peopled by the employees of the Associated Oil Company at Avon, and by many of the Shell employees frons Martinez. At Bay Point are located the Coos Bay Lumber Co.'s plant; stores f i of all. kinds; a postoflice; a graded school with 150 pupils attending, and j live teachers (it is in the Mount Diablo Union Haigh School district) ; Congregational, Catholic, and Swedish Lutheran churches; Bay Point Foundry; and the First National. Bank, organized January 7, 1920, with w25,000 capital, a branch of the First.National Batik of Pittsburg. There are also lodges of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, the Rebekahs, i the Woodmen of the World, the Royal Neighbors, and a Masonic Club. II '� The town has paved streets, cement sidewalks and curbs, an artesian i water supply system piped into. the town from the hills to the south, about If one and a half miles from the Government Ranch. The population is about 300 people, and it is a thriving locality. i! j IiDANVILLE+ � The town of Danville, eighteen miles south of Martinez, is located in a horticultural district which was one of the early grain-raising sections of Contra Costa County. It has a population of about 400 people, and is enterprising and progressive. i Danville was started in 1353 when Daniel and Andrew Inman built I a smithy. Inman sold out to J. L. Close, who carried on the blacksmith i ( I shop for years. In 1353 M. Cohen built the second building in the place i for a branch establishment of the store at Alamo owned and conducted by Cohen & wolf. This building stood for sixty years. The first hotel was i I kept by H. W. Harris in 1.353, and lie was also the postmaster. The mail came via stage from Walnut Creek. P. E. Peel conducted the second store. He was succeeded by John Conway, who carried on the business for i many years. `.['here are two versions given regarding the naming of Danville. One i is that it was named for Dan Inman, the man who built the first building. li ! Another is that the honor was given "Aunt Sallie" Young, who named it I ' Danville after Danville, Ky., her birthplace. There had been a schoolhouse erected in the valley, about a mile from the townsite, in 1353; this was moved into the town in 1370 and put on i a lot in the south end of the town, where the first grammar school was !i' l built in 1365. This building burned and the county schoolhouse was g Y moved onto the plat of ground. A new building was erected in 1395 and did duty until 1922, when the new building was erected at the north side II .. of the town. This modern building was built from a bond issue of : 15,000. In 1910 the Union IIigh School was established at Danville, known as the San Ramon Valley Union High School, and school was held in temporary quarters until the present high school building was erected on a site adjoining the new grammar school. In 1372 Granger's Hall was built. The Grange is still a live organi- zation of the district. i I ' + I f DATE: S _ l REgUEST TO SPEAK '' ORM (THREE (3) MINUTE LIMIT) Complete this form and place it in the box near the speakers' rostrum before addressing the Board.

My family and I have done business and been involved in the community of West Pittsburg for thirty years. I am proud to say that I am from "West Pittsburg" and so are a great many of the families who have lived here for many years, many are second, third, fourth and maybe even fifth generation families. It seems some of our "new neighbors" are looking for a "short-cut" to improving the image of the West Pittsburg community by way of a name change to Bay Point. The persons working so hard to change the name to Bay Point are the same people who have moved into West Pittsburg over the past six years, some of them have lived here less than one year! They came to West Pittsburg looking for affordable housing rather than pay the high price of living "on the other side of the hill" . Now they want to rename this area to increase the value of their homes. I believe whenever a "community" matter is at hand, a "community" decision should be made. Are the people who want the name change really involved with the community. I was at the petition pick-up location on April 17th. I heard one of the people picking up a petition in favor of the name change say "Oh, this is the Community Center, it's nice! " , sounding shocked. As another person entered the room I asked them if they knew where Ambrose Park is, to which they responded they did not. How many of these people have attended an Ambrose Recreation and Park District meeting, a West Pittsburg Municipal Advisory Council meeting, a West Pittsburg Pride Committee meeting, a Project Area Committee (West Pittsburg Redevelopment) meeting? Are their children involved in the local youth sport programs? I contend that most of the people wishing to change the name of the community do not even know the community. They have stated that they believe changing the name will change the image of the community. I say no, people will say "Bay Point, you know, it used to be West Pittsburg" . I wish that all the hard work, energy and togetherness that has gone into this campaign could be concentrated on more important issues. Let's work to better this community, not hide it with a new name.

Leland Drive Suite 100 �Ifilk� Pittsburg, CA 94565 Dear Supervisor Torlakson, We are writing in regard to the name change and the vote taken by the Municipal Advisory Council on May 2, 1993. Contrary to what the Bay Point Committee may believe, the majority of our community does not favor -.Bay Point as a new name. We feel the vote taken on May 2 was premature. We had no idea any action was.-.to be taken at that time. We were led to be- lieve by statements made by MAC Chair Glen Williams that the MAC would be taking steps to make this a ballot issue. The attached petitions represent signatures collected since the meeting on May 2, we continue to collect signatures and support everyday. f makin any decision until June 7, 1993 when the Municipal Advisory Council meets again. is will ow to make them aware of the opposition to the Bay Point name change. This is a decision that otir..community will have to live with for many years to come .and it is extremely important that we move slowly and precisely to make sure everyone is represented. Respectively, r• 1� J r l AOL rwiiiillBA P01TqTt Y '���;�(( s 1 .

Since West Pittsburg is an unicorporated area, it is up to the Board to make this decision. We represent the overwhelming majority of West Pittsburg residents who would like to change the name of our community from West Pittsburg to Bay Point. As ou know, our community has been considering changing the name to Bay Point, a ame that has been associated with this area since the 1800's. -7-7 upported by Municipal Advisory Council On Monday, May 2, the Municipal Advisory Council voted 4-2 to support this name change to your board. Attached you will find the MAC letter of support. Proposal has 90% approval rate Over the past several weeks, Bay Point volunteers have canvassed over 3500 homes in our community. these, 2000 people were home and answered the door. Of these 2000 peop1�900 a signed our petition. In every neighborhood, the approval rate for been over 90%. 19 A Important Issue to Community Residents in our community wish to develop a sense of identity. All of the MAC council members attended a public meeting held on March 30th, and were able to see the huge amount of support for the name change. pc� No Costs for Residents There are no costs associated with the Bay Point name change. We have contacted every significant agency in California, and have determined that there will be no costs for any West Pittsburg residents. We have attached a list of these agencies A�ez which include: • DMV • U.S. Post Office • CalTrans • Contra Costa Planning Dept G � • BART • Secretary of State �' � • LAFCO • State Board of Equalization County and Bay Area Support The Bay Point name change has been endorsed by both the Contra Costa Times, and the Antioch Post-Dispatch, who wrote editorials supporting change. (See attached.) The name change effort has also received favorable press coverage from KTVU, KPIX, KCBS, KGO, KISS, and KNEW television and radio stations. Special Election Costly and Pointless This decision can, and should be made by the Board of Supervisors. To put this issue on a ballot would be both costly and pointless. With a 90% approval rate among residents, it is apparent that this is what the community wants. The cost of an election is between $6000 and $9000, which would have to be paid by the county, or by residents. Either way, it is a huge waste of money. Any money spent should be used to fund a library, or to focus on programs such as the Safe Streets Now! project. At a time when the county is attempting to cut 40% of it's budget, it would not make sense to place this on the ballot. Community is Changing West Pittsburg is changing. New developments and businesses are moving into town every year. If we were a city, we would be the third largest city in east Contra Costa County. This is a great opportunity for the Board to make a positive impact on our community, and make a change that residents want to see. We have attached some additional information that shows the broad based support this issue has throughout our community. Thank You For Support We would like you to approve this change as soon as possible, and assist us in contacting the appropriate agencies with a letter from the Board. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact us.

Pittsburg name change is a. worthy idea Iis a dynamic time in West Pittsburg. . . Roads are being moved, hundreds of newcomers are moving onto the unin- corporated community and BART will be chugging into a newly-built station on Bai- ley Road in 1997. The time is ripe for res= idents of this community to define themselves, which is why changing the community's name to Bay Point is a noble endeavor.' No one can argue that West Pittsburg has a negative reputation, most notably It deserves to for drug dealing have a name and prostitu- tion. But these that reflects elements are a tiny fraction of these positive how this grow- ing community changes. of 18,000 peo- ple should be defined. Thousands of law-abiding, con- cerned families have made this community their home. They are committed to seeing the West Pittsburg flourish, and should not be.burdened with a reputation that does not reflect their lives. That is why a name change has been proposed. This grass-roots effort, spurred on by residents working to improve the commu- nity, is based in reality. Organizers know a new name will not be a magic panacea for the'ills that do exist in West Pittsburg, but they want the community to change for the better. They are addressing problem areas through the Safe Streets program, and are continually developing a real sense of,community— not an easy task in bed- . room communities. With its easy freeway aceess and close location to Central County and other major employment bases, the fu- ture is bright for this community. It de- serves to have a name that reflects these positive changes. Bay Point is a noble choice. It has his- torical perspective — it was the name the community was known as until 1931 — and it also sounds appealing. . Changing West Pittsburg to Bay Point can give this unincorporated community the positive identity it deserves. . mo People interested in this issue are invited to at- tend a Bay Point name change meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday, March 30, at Ambrose Recreation Center, 3105 Willow Pass Road, West Pittsburg.

As you know, our community has been considering Brett Howard changing the name to Bay Point. This name has been associated with this area since the 1800's, and the overwhelming majority of residents feel this name better describes our community than our current name. On Monday, May 2, the Municipal Advisory Council voted 4-2 to support this name change to your board. We would like you to approve this change as soon as possible, and assist us in contacting the appropriate agencies with a letter from the Board of Supervisors. Members of the Bay Point name change committee will be contacting you in the near future to finalize this process.

Since West Pittsburg is an unicorporated area, it is up to the Board to make this decision. We represent the overwhelming majority of West Pittsburg residents who would like to change the name of our community from West Pittsburg to Bay Point. As you know, our community has been considering changing the name to Bay Point, a naive that has been associated with this area since the 1800's. Supported by Municipal Advisory Council On Monday, May 2, the Municipal Advisory Council voted 4-2 to support this name change to your board. Attached you will find the MAC letter of support. Proposal has 90% approval rate Over the past several weeks, Bay Point volunteers have canvassed over 3500 homes in our community. Of these, 2000 people were home and answered the door. Of these 2000 people, 1900 have signed our petition. In every neighborhood, the approval rate for this issue has been over 90%,. Important Issue to Community Residents in our community wish to develop a sense of identity. All of the MAC council members attended a public meeting held on March 30th, and were able to see the huge amount of support for the name change. No Costs for Residents There are no costs associated with the Bay Point name change. We have contacted every significant agency in California, and have determined that there will be no costs for any West Pittsburg residents. We have attached a list of these agencies which include: • DMV • U.S. Post Office • CalTrans • Contra Costa Planning Dept • BART • Secretary of State • LAFCO • State Board of Equalization 'W 'r County and Bay Area Support The Bay Point name change has been endorsed by both the Contra Costa Times, and the Antioch Post-Dispatch, who wrote editorials supporting change. (See attached.) The name change effort has also received favorable press coverage from KTVU, KPIX, KCBS, KGO, KISS, and KNEW television and radio stations. Special Election Costly and Pointless This decision can, and should be made by the Board of Supervisors. To put this issue on a ballot would be both costly and pointless. With a 90% approval rate among residents, it is apparent that this is what the cosninunity wants. The cost of an election is between $6000 and $9000, which would have to be paid by the county, or by residents. Either way, it is a huge waste of money. Any money spent should be used to fund a library, or to focus on programs such as the Safe Streets Now! project. At a time when the county is attempting to cut 40% of it's budget, it would not make sense to place this on the ballot. Community is Changing West Pittsburg is changing. New developments and businesses are moving into town every year. If we were a city, we would be the third largest city in east Contra Costa County. This is a great opportunity for the Board to make a positive impact on our community, and make a change that residents want to see. We have attached some additional information that shows the broad based support this issue has throughout our community. Thank You For Support We would like you to approve this change as soon as possible, and assist us in contacting the appropriate agencies with a letter from the Board. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact us. Thank you for your consideration.

Thousands of law-abiding, con- cerned families have made this community their home.

Although this makes me a relative new comer to the are, I've always felt that the West Pittsburg name wasn't very represeatative of this community. I can't express the delight I felt upon hearing of the Bay Point name change. I've followed the name change movement and was comforted to discover that so many other residents, over 80%, were also in favor. I 'm pleased to have the West Pittsburg MACs support in the Bay Point title, To be honest, I was surprised to discover, from MAC chairman Glen Williams, that West Pittsburg was not an official name. It seems that adopting the Bay Point name would present fewer obstacles than changing an official, existing, name.. In any case, as I stated earlier, an overwhelming percent of this community supports the Bay Point name. I know this first hand since I was involved in the petition drive that produced nearly 2,000 signatures in support of the change. I was pleased to see that my friends and neighbors all shared the same enthusiasm for positive change. I believe that no other single act, could have such a profound effectin projecting a positive image, provide a community identification and unify of boroughs& citizens. It is my understanding that there are no set procedures for adopting a name. As a citizen, I feel that I've done my part by providing my elected representatives tangible proof that this community is overwhelmingly in favor of the Bay Point name change. I personally don't feel that tax dollars need to be wasted in a ballot measure that will undoubtedly, and needlessly, confirm our findings. } J.

Leland Drive Suite 100 Pittsburg, CA 94565 Dear Mr. Torlakson, West Pittsburg has deep roots through its many different kinds of people from long time residents to kids that grew up here in the community and as adults stay to raise their children here, to make a multi- generation community. Yes, it has its problems like most communities (mostly of outside influence) , made bigger by the constant negative newspaper articles over the years. And now this Bay Point idea. But one problem this on the move community doesn't have is a identity conflict, they know who they are, and where they're from, not some lost identity, unlike some of the Bay Point advocates, they don't have any sense of community pride, they are just plain embarrassed to be here or to say they live here, in West_ Pittsburg. You must build within the community, add to it not change the name for their lack of identity or embarrassment of this community. West Pittsburg will change as it has all along. With new and special programs, involvement and concern of the people. We are on the move for .;a better place to live in West Pittsburg. I am a 15 yr. resident who has no problem with the newer residents. However if the name change doesn't go on a ballot there will be bad feelings for many years, this would be a step backward for our community. Sincerely, Lloyd L.

Leland Drive fd� Suite 100 USS ECEaVE® APR 2 S93 Pittsburg, Ca 94565 5 Re: Bay Point Name Change Dear Mr. Torlakson, I am writing to you in ENTHUSIASTIC support for the West Pittsburg name change to Bay Point. I am a resident of West Pittsburg as of September 1991. We bought our new home here due to the affordability of the area, and have, until this time, wished we could pick up our beautiful home and place it in a town that had a more desireable reputation, 'not to mention a more palatable name. Even though . I have been- a resident for almost two years,' I was not made aware that "Pittsburg-" and "West Pittsburg" were two different towns ! They have the same name, essentially, and they have the same zip code! All my mail is addressed as "Pittsburg" and comes to me even though I live in "West Pittsburg" . There is no sign saying "You are entering West Pittsburg" . There is a Rotary Club sign on Willow Pass stating you are entering "Pittsburg" which only serves to confuse the rest of the community who live outside those limits. I attended the name change meeting in March and was glad to see how many residents want to change the name. 1 was equally apalled to see the four or five residents that were extremely loud, sometimes vulgar and quite uninformed about what the rest of us wanted. They obviously had never heard of Roberts Rules of Order as they , for the most part, were an embarassment to the rest of the group, due to their behaviour. As soon as they finally realized they were in the extreme minority, Lhey stormed out. All four of them. These same four were spouting off about issues other than the name change and seemed to have alot of hostility about their special interests not being heard. when they held their own meetings, so were using Brett Howard's forum to vent their anger about these special interests. It'was as if we were deciding whether to get rid of the drug and prostitute problem OR change the namel. If that were the case I too would have been quite vocal, but that wasn't the case. These four just didn't get it. Sure, West Pittsburg has other problems to contend with as well as the name, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't do anything! I applaud Brett Howard's initiative to start somewhere and work his way up. He handled the meeting beautifully, it was well organized and powerful and he got tough when he needed to and heard people out, on both sides with compassion and great diplomacy. He stood his ground and was prepared for every question and doubt. I, as a registered and active voter in your district, strongly urge you to support this name change in the swiftest and most economic fashion. Yours Truly, O Lisa A.

Leland Road, Suite 100 Pittsburg, CA 94596-8099 Dear Mr. Supervisor: No doubt you have heard about the proposed name change of West Pittsburg to Bay Point. I am writing this letter to state my support for the name change and to ask for the support of the Board of Supervisors as well. I favor the name change because our community has suffered from an identity crisis for a long time. People in other communities and in the news media consistently associate us with the city of Pittsburg during casual conversation and in news coverage, particularly negative news coverage. The fact is that we are an unincorporated community completely outside the amity Limits of Pittsburg. We do not receive police protection or anv other municipal services provided by the city of Pittsburg. West Pittsburg is perceived by many as nothing but a haven for drug dealing and prostitution. In fact, those activities occur in a very small portion of the community, primarily in the commercial section. The rest of the community is composed of thousands of everyday, hard working, law abiding citizens living in many new housing developments, as well as in beautifully maintained, established neighborhoods. The Bay Point name would help to dispel the incorrect perceptions of the community. It would give us our own identity. The name Bay Point has historical roots. The native Americans who first inhabited the area called it "Point of the Bay." During the years leading up to the Great Depression, the community was called Bay Point. Bay Point also accurately describes the main topographic feature of the area - a point overlooking the Suisun Bay and the delta, Bay Point is the perfect new name for our community. Thank you for reading this letter and for your consideration regarding the name change.

Leland Drive r` �� 6.0 Suite 100 Pittsburg, CA 94565 Dear Mr. Torlakson: Re: Bay Point Name Change My wife and I (who are both retired) support the proposed name change of our community from West Pittsburg to Bay Point . Although we are newcomers to this area (we moved from San Fran- cisco in 1985) , we feel proud to be members of this community, especially after learning about Bay Point ' s fascinating histor- ical background . This could be the first step towards ending West Pittsburg ' s negative reputation and for our community to have a better image and identity. The name change would also be in keeping step with the positive changes going on in our community, e.g. , the B.A.R.T. extension into our area . We would greatly appreciate your efforts to put a name change on the ballot in November. Sincerely, �oseph C. Fleming q,4 Esther M.
