Petitions for annexation are described as over the top in Foothill Manor and Halcyon. After two days of petition circulation Foothill Manor reported 1174 signatures out of 2080 voters, Halcyon 724 of 2400 electors. Both areas need 520 and 600 valid signatures to place the proposal on the ballot, with anti annexation efforts pushing to increase safeguards. Gerald D. Cochran leads the Bay City incorporation committee and notes 18 protests in circulation. An open Halcyon meeting is set for residents along with Foothill area to discuss incorporation and opposition. Weiner challenges validity of annexation claims and argues Bay City incorporation could offer more recreation than San Leandro. He notes that capital interests favor annexation for tax reasons.
