Helicopter ambulance service urged for Alameda County
Alameda County Emergency Medical Care Committee urged the board of supervisors to require all 2-hour emergency hospitals to develop heliports and to implement a heliport atop Highland Hospital in Oakland. The panel called for countywide ambulance helicopter contracts, central dispatch, and expanded Med-Net radio links between hospitals and emergency vehicles. The report also supports mandatory first-aid training for police and fire personnel, ongoing Red Cross advanced first-aid courses, and CPR/EMT training for ambulance staff.

County CEO adopts only two reforms from state list
The Southern Alameda County Economic Opportunity Agency directors Tuesday night rejected most state Office of Economic Opportunity recommendations, approving only two. They forbade automatic board approval for all contracts under state rules, setting a $200 threshold for federal audit conditions, and declined to halt promotions or leave vacancies open until a reevaluation and restructuring. Acting Executive Director William Newton urged filling critical posts, warning that delaying hires could cripple the agency. The board backed hiring some positions but left others unfilled, insisting essential roles be filled to maintain program function.

Alameda County Supervisors Reject Manpower Council Entry
Alameda County Supervisors voted 4 to 1 to refrain from immediate participation in the Alameda County Manpower Area Planning Council under federal labor guidelines. The action cited unequal influence by city mayors, with Oakland, Berkeley, Fremont, and Hayward running the program, while county programs face limited leadership. The board may reconsider if representation changes. The meeting also covered Work Incentive Training Program placements totaling 188 men and 129 women last year and Educational Training Service placements of 154 men and 35 women, with training costs averaging 51 dollars a month for men and 136 for women due to childcare costs, amid discrimination claims by legal aid and welfare groups.

Zoning Plan Aims To End Visor Debate With Amendments
The county moves to end the visors dispute by amending zoning to protect agricultural lands while enabling rural residential development. Supervisors back a plan creating a dedicated agricultural district with large lots and de-emphasized housing, raising site requirements and allowing limited combined agricultural uses on smaller parcels.
