Spring Clean-Up Spikes Alvarado C of C Session
A verbose Alvarado Chamber of Commerce meeting centers on spring cleaning and beautification efforts. Mrs May Santos criticizes the Washington Township Garbage company for odor and insects, while officials report trucks stored at the dump and promise an ordinance in 30 to 40 days. The group flags unsightly sites, sketches a red-marked map, and considers consolidating Alvarado and Decoto chambers to aid Union City incorporation efforts. Union Sanitary District flags annexation barriers, noting intervening lands must join Alvarado first and that finances hinder service expansion.

Castro Valley Boulevard Plans Tap Six Cost Shares
Castro Valley's Boulevard Improvement Committee begins studying six alternate plans to share a $267,300 project cost for widening the boulevard between Redwood Road and Strobridge Avenue. County engineers favor a mixed tax district or cash contributions with one contract. Cost breakdowns assign sidewalks and curbs to property owners, with storm sewers county funded and roadway pavement varying between 2 and 3 inches across the options. A lighting district may also be created to improve boulevard lighting.

Convent Plans Denied By Fremont Board Of Appeals
Fremont Holy Ghost Catholic Church failed to win approval to build a convent on South Main and Parish avenues due to insufficient off street parking. The revised plan adds 103 parking spaces behind the church with driveways at the school sides and one to the lot from South Main. The board required paving of the parking area and warned that future expansions would need more parking. Willis Simpson withheld his vote and noted prior instructions to reserve church property for parking. The board also asked for removal dates for a dwelling on church property.
