Fremont is a classic example: over its 50+ year history it has evolved from an agricultural township to the fourth largest city in Cthe San Francisco Bay Area, home to a highly-educated, diverse population and many successful businesses, large and small. How should Fremont continue to change and evolve? Based on input from thousands of residents and business people and extensive conversations with the City Council as part of the update of the City’s General Plan, the answer is best summarized as follows: Fremont will serve as a national model of how an auto-oriented suburb can evolve into a sustainable, strategically urban, modern city.

  • A's News Clips, Monday, January 11, 2010 Cactus League Expands From
    A’s News Clips, Monday, January 11, 2010 Cactus League expands from humble roots Reds latest team to move spring headquarters to Arizona By Jesse Sanchez / MLB.com 1/10/2010 Robert Brinton first sold the Cactus League program when he was 6 years old. Fifty-eight years later, Brinton has bought into the program, too. As president of the Cactus League, he has watched the Arizona Spring Training league evolve into a baseball power that rivals its older East Coast counterpart, the Grapefruit League. There will be 15 teams training in Florida's Grapefruit League when pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training on Feb. 18, and with the recent arrival of the Cincinnati Reds in Goodyear, Ariz., 15 teams will now train in Arizona. "We were down to seven teams in the early '90s and my vision was to see if we can get 10 teams here," said Brinton, who lives in Mesa. "To end up with 15 teams shows the hard work of many people working together over the years. It's been more successful than we could have ever dreamed." The leagues have come a long way. The Cactus League started in 1946 with the Cleveland Indians in Tucson and the New York Giants in Phoenix. The Grapefruit League started in 1908 with an exhibition game between the Reds and the St. Petersburg Saints. The Chicago Cubs were the first team to train in Florida when they arrived in 1913. When the Cubs became the third team in the Cactus League in 1952, Brinton was a boy who wanted to be ballplayer when he grew up.

  • Idle Fremont Plant Gears up for Tesla
    By PUI-WING TAM FREMONT—Inside the cavernous automobile factory here once known as New United Motor Manufacturing Inc. or Nummi, equipment stands idle and the lights are off. Only at the southern end of the 5.5-million-square-foot facility are there signs of activity. That's where large crates—each holding a piece of a hydraulic press that stamps metal—have rolled in, having made their way from the Detroit area to Silicon Valley over the past few weeks. Those pieces will be put together over the next few months so that in 2012, the factory's new owner, Tesla Motors Inc., can begin producing an electric-powered sedan, the Model S. "We used trucks and railcars" to move the press in, says Gilbert Passin, Tesla's vice president of manufacturing. The crates are just one sign of how electric-car maker Tesla is starting to gear up at Nummi, the onetime joint venture between General Motors Corp. and Toyota Motor Corp. that was shuttered in April following the recession. Tesla, which snapped up the site in May for $42 million, formally took over the factory on Oct. 19 and intends to hold an opening ceremony later this month. Tailoring the facility to fit Tesla's needs is an enormous task, however. While the company is keeping some existing Nummi equipment and systems, Tesla says it still needs to recruit and train 500 people, modify machines, bring in new gear and sign up suppliers for the factory over the next year. The Palo Alto-based company intends to initially produce 10,000 Model S vehicles a year at the site, increasing that to 20,000 cars annually over time.

  • HSD Community Report 2010-2011
    Community Report 2010/11 Human Services Department “Human Services works to support a vibrant community through services that empower individuals, strengthen families, encourage self-sufficiency, enhance neighborhoods and foster a high quality of life.” Telling the Stories… ‘Juan’, a 16 year old student at Kennedy High School, was identified by his teacher for counseling because of missing assignments, flunking tests and a “defiant” attitude toward school rules related to a possible gang affiliation. The Youth and Family Service Counselor learned Juan’s dad had been laid off; the family was homeless and living in a small hotel room. Working as a team with the counselor and a service coordinator from the Family Resource Center, the family was able to access Homeless Prevention services and move into an apartment. With support, Juan’s mother was able to find a full time job. Juan’s behavior and school performance have improved and he has learned healthier ways to communicate. “Supporting older adults to stay at home is cost effective. All of the clients in Fremont’s Multipurpose Senior Services Program have health conditions that would qualify them to live in a Medi-Cal funded nursing home. The State contracts with Fremont’s Human Services Department to help these individuals stay in their home, saving taxpayers approximately 2.65 million dollars last year.” – Wendy Peterson Senior Services Coalition of Alameda County I’m 25 years old, and I’m responsible for my 10 year old sister. I came to the FRC because I was feeling overwhelmed with responsibilities. The Family Service Team helped me develop a plan to get back on my feet.

  • Supervisor Gioia Remembers Richmond
    Contra Costa Times editorial: Mourning passing of two mayors who made a difference Contra Costa Times editorial © Copyright 2011, Bay Area News Group Posted: 01/11/2012 04:00:00 PM PST The East Bay has lost two leaders who understood the meaning of public service, worked tirelessly to promote and improve their communities, understood that elected office was a place to better other people's lives and helped lead their respective cities, Richmond and Fremont, during challenging times of rapidly changing demographics. George Livingston, the first elected African-American mayor of Richmond, ran council meetings and led the city with care and respect. Chosen by his City Council colleagues for the top post after Mayor Tom Corcoran died in office in 1985, he was seen as someone who could unite others. He soon ran for mayor in his own right and held the seat for eight more years. Rep. George Miller, D-Martinez, remembers Livingston as a man who was "always pushing the edge on the issues of equality and participation." Richmond Councilman Nat Bates recalls him as a "people's politician" who represented all residents, not just the black community. Contra Costa Supervisor John Gioia says he worked to unite not only the council but the entire city. Livingston competed in an era of hardball politics when the city was divided into political factions. While he was known as a consensus builder, he was by no means immune to the political power-brokers who threw their weight around behind-the-scenes deal-making. Nevertheless, he was a leader who cared deeply about Richmond.
