Description Condition Chock ono Chock ono excellent deteriorated unaltered X original site X good ruins X altered moved data n/a fair unex posed Describe the present and original (if known) physical appoaranco The Fresno Bee Building (1922) is located on the southwest corner of Van Ness Avenue and Calaveras Street in Downtown Fresno, California. It has been recently buffered from encroaching urban renewal projects by its somewhat isolated location just north of the natural boundaries of the Fulton Mall. An immediate nine block zone of influence is stable. The area includes a telephone communications center, television and radio broadcast facilities, financial institutions, and a lively legitimate theatre district. The original six-floor structure measured 75x100 feet, but utilized only two-thirds of the corner site. The remainder of the -lan<^ protected the building from being "walled-up" by other buildings, and!provided ample room for the newspaper's own anticipated expansion. Structurally, the publishing pl,ant was built of reinforced concrete with cast cement ornamentation and a veneer of rose-colored Cannon brick, which was identified as special in design. The bottom third of the building housed a basement press room with an intermediate mezzanine for employee services and restrooms. This basement space was excavated 9'-0" below ground level and elevated 8'-6" +_ above ground level, to provide adequate natural light and ventilation to the mechanical bowels of the building. A 1923 article in ARCHITECT AND ENGINEER provided the following detailed description of the functional layout of the building: The first floor of the building contains the business , offices, executive offices, mailing room, advertising department and the delivery room for the newsboys, which is accessible from Calaveras Street. On the second floor is the editorial staff, also the reporters' room, library, etc. The third floor is devoted to the composing department. The composing room has a special system of ventilating so as to take care of all fumes, etc., directly from the linotype machines. In addition to this special ventilation, the roof slab over the composing room is flat, and upon this has been built a wooden deck supporting from two to. three feet of earth and a lawn with sprinkler system. This lawn is accessible from the main elevators and stairways.22 Both in scale and detail, the Fresno Bee Building was a modified Palazzo in appearance. Its Renaissance inspired ornamentation and fenestration was 8.

Unhampered by a tardy construction schedule, the fledgling evening newspaper printed a five-section, sixty-page premier edition, which launched a decade of intense competitibn with the politically entrenched FRESNO MORNING REPUBLICAN. As tfye newest arm of the Sacramento-based James McClatchy Publishing Company; THE FRESNO &EE initiated an: aggressively competitive advertising and subscription campaign to capture the daily circulation stakes in this vast region of Central California. By 1932, The McClatchy-owned paper successfully absorbed the ailing MORNING REPUBLICAN into its bannerhead. In one short decade, THE BEE had closed down a fellow pioneer California newspaper which had itself been founded in 1876. This classic contest of journalistic enterprise came slightly more than a half century after the parent paper, THE SACRAMENTO BEE, had been founded in 1857 by James McClatchy. McClatchy, an itinerant baker who emigrated to New York City from Liburn, County Antrim'/ Ireland, had "the fever of journalism ... in his veins, and ... drifted around the office of THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE where he became a fast friend of ;Horace Greeley."2 Greeley secured a position for McClatchy with the paper, then encouraged 1 the young man to travel West as a correspondent for THE TRIBUNE. After a treacherous journey via the Isthmus of Panama to California, McClatchy settled into reporting the colorful and often violent territorial news. As a regional correspondent, he relayed his observations in the form of personal letters to Charles A. Dana, Managing Editor at THE TRIBUNE. The 33 year-old McClatchy, however, was a fiercely independent man, whose instincts sensed the limitless opportunities of the Western Territories. With characteristic ambit ion, he decided to publish his own newspaper in the sparsely populated Gold Rush Territory. "THE BEE from the beginning was a militant paper, having strong opinions and expressing them plainly. "3 The strength of his convictions resulted in "one of the longest unbroken lines of newspaper ownership in California, if not the longest, "4 and assured that, as an out-of-town challenger, THE FRESNO BEE would succeed in a traditionally self-sustaining agricultural community. 9.

The raised basement served as a grand base which supported a two-part building composition split by a molded and bracketed belt course, and capped by a terra cotta tile mansard- roof. An intricately detailed cast concrete cornice consisting of dense bracketing, rosette grilles, a brightly colored soffit, and a frieze band of garlands and festoons marked a rigid contrast to the more casual California flavor of the mission style roofing material. The raised base was accented by a pronounced plinth course, marble entablature inserts, cast ornaments, and a continuous Greek key detail along its top.

Fresno County and the other participating jurisdictions developed this multi-hazard mitigation plan to make the County and its residents less vulnerable to future hazard events. This plan was prepared pursuant to the requirements of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 so that Fresno County would be eligible for the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Hazard Mitigation Assistance Grants, including Pre-Disaster Mitigation and Hazard Mitigation Grant programs as well as lower flood insurance premiums (in jurisdictions that participate in the National Flood Insurance Program’s Community Rating System). The plan was originally developed in 2007-2008 and FEMA approved in 2009.

    ANNEXES A - I ANNEX A: CITY OF CLOVIS A.1 Community Profile Figure A.1 displays a map and the location within Fresno County of the City of Clovis and its Sphere of Influence. Figure A.1: The City of Clovis A.1.1 Geography and Climate Located in the northeast quadrant of the Fresno-Clovis Metropolitan Area in northern Fresno County, Clovis is situated in the midst of the agriculturally rich San Joaquin Valley. It covers a roughly 21,108 acre area that encompasses the City of Clovis and unincorporated Fresno County, inclusive of the City’s Sphere of Influence. Over the past decade, the City has annexed land in the southeast near Dog Creek and expanded its Sphere of Influence in the north. All lands outside of the City’s Sphere of Influence are regulated by the Fresno County General Plan and zoning designations. However, state law requires that cities plan for areas outside of their immediate jurisdiction if the areas have a direct relationship to planning needs. Fresno County (Clovis) DRAFT Annex A.1 Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan Clovis consists of three distinct geographical areas: The City, which represents the incorporated City within the City limit boundaries; the Sphere of Influence, which corresponds to the City’s existing Sphere of Influence; and the study area, which includes unincorporated Fresno County lands outside of the City’s Sphere of Influence. Immediately beyond Clovis to the northeast are the western foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The City of Fresno and its Sphere of Influence are located to the southwest.
