Industries Brought Into Alameda County Report
The Oakland Chamber of Commerce and 13 smaller South County chambers told the Alameda County Board of Supervisors they helped bring 35 new industries and 98 service trade or financial agencies to Alameda County last month. They reported about $289,000 in county funds promoted, with $115,500 for Metropolitan Oakland Advertising administered by the Oakland chamber. The 73 new projects represented $30 million investment and 954 new jobs, per Bill Sparling, and the effort aims to foster a healthy countywide business climate. Spokesmen cited MOA as key in sparking initial interest and noted first contact with Carling Brewery, now moving into Tremont, came through Ken Moeller of the Oakland chamber.

Flood Fund Aid For Alameda Creek Project Hopes
Public Works Director Herbert Crowle says Alameda County's plea for supplemental flood control funds faces serious consideration by federal appropriations committees in Washington. The county delegation’s testimony before the committees, though not openly optimistic, drew relatively favorable reception compared with harsher reactions to other groups. They sought 1,250,000 dollars for flood control on Alameda Creek, higher than President Johnson's recommended 750,000. Crowle notes unity among the county board and four cities strengthened the case.
