Explore the Horizons of your Life!

A flexible retirement tool, puts you in charge of your cash flow. East County is a picturesque, welcoming, lively region located in Contra Costa County, with Mt. Diablo on one side, and the Sacramento San Joaquin Delta on the other. You could not ask for a more idyllic setting. It is full of life, laughter and fun. The city started as a small farming community where everyone knew each other â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there was one school and the Corn Festival was the big annual event enjoyed by all. It has grown into a bustling city with everything a person could want within close proximity. One of the things I love most about the area, is that there is always something to do. Activities abound, every day, every week, every month. From crab feeds and hiphop concerts, to art and wine festivals and 5K runs, to winetasting and outdoor movies, to great shopping and wonderful restaurants. And, of course, there are still famous festivals aplenty, from the Delta Blues Festival, to Hot Rods for Paws, the Asparagus Festival, and more craft beer festivals than you can count. East County is known for their festivals and they draw crowds from all around the Bay Area. We are so glad you are considering making our beautiful area your new home. I would like to introduce

myself and my team. My name is Beth Miller-Rowe, and I am your local reverse mortgage lender. I live and work in our local communities. I stay local because I think a reverse mortgage transaction requires face to face interaction. It is a complex product with many nuances. I need to see you, talk to you eye-toeye, to be sure you understand each of those nuances and how they may impact you. I can only do that if I stay local. The first step is education. With me, that takes place in the comfort of your home. No call center, no Fed Ex, no high-pressure sales tactics. I will explain what a reverse mortgage can do and what it cannot do for you. I will explain the program, the process, the costs, as well Beth Miller-Rowe BRANCH NMLS: 294774 DRE: 00950759/01215943 as what you can expect now and what your heirs can expect BRANCH MANAGER AND when the time comes.

Reverse mortgages are loans offered to homeowners who are 62 or older who have equity in their homes. The loan programs allow borrowers to defer payment on the loans until they pass away, sell the home, or move out. Homeowners, however, remain responsible for the payment of taxes, insurance, maintenance, and other items. Nonpayment of these items can lead to a default under the loan terms and ultimate loss of the home. FHA insured reverse mortgages have an up front and ongoing cost; ask your loan officer for details.

HISTORY been approached by numerous parties interested in developing the site. “The Byron Hot Springs has been a place of interest for a long time,” she said. “There’s a historic interest in it for all of the roles it’s played here in East County ... “ And what of the famous hot springs for which the hotel was named? According to reports, all of the springs were capped during the U.S. Army’s use of the property during World War II. “There are several different types of hot springs,” said Crannell. “They’ve all been capped. There are over a dozen in the area. They are in the process of determining if they’re still valid, if they’ve dried up or if they’ve changed routes ...” Having stood for more than 100 years, it’s impossible to know how much longer the Byron Hot Springs Hotel will last before restoration becomes improbable or impossible. In the meantime, much work remains to be done. Cort is waiting for the county to respond to his preapplication review. Crannell said that any comments will be incorporated into a formal design that will be submitted to the county for approval. And Jensen said that, as the building is an historic structure, any plans will need to be compliant with U.S. Department of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. Cort said he is ready to go as soon as he gets a green light. W

once featured more than 20 structures. Windows and doors are long gone. All of the interior appointments have been stripped down to the concrete core of the building. Floors and ceilings sag, while fallen bricks from the exterior pile up on the ground. Nearly every surface bears the spray-painted mark of generations of trespassers who saw the building as their personal canvas. “As architects, we like to say this has pretty good bones,” Crannell said. “Visually, it has good bones. Structurally, we don’t know yet. We’re having a structural engineer assess the building right now to figure out what’s going to happen. We already know that there’s going to be massive infrastructure to repurpose this building because of how it was built and the amount of deterioration in the building.” As Cort currently envisions the project, two of the four floors will be removed. The first floor could accommodate a restaurant with a brewery or wine-making facilities, while the second floor could house space for weddings, parties or other events. Space would also be allocated as a museum preserving remnants of the area’s long and colorful past. But before any of that can occur, more fundamental issues need to be resolved. The project has also caught the attention of Contra Costa County District 3 Supervisor Diane Burgis, who said that over the years she’s

WELCOME! 2020

Sitting oddly out of place among the arid rolling hills of rural East Contra Costa County, the Byron Hot Springs Hotel now offers only the vaguest hints of its former glory, but a Bay Area developer is determined to breathe new life into this once-stunning building. Last year, Robert Cort purchased a 300-acre lot in Byron that includes the hotel. Working with Lance Crannell of the Brentwood-based firm SDG Architects, Cort submitted a preapplication review to county officials in December that proposes restoration of the hotel and the creation of new amenities. “I figured I could do a brewery or a winery with a restaurant, kind of a farm-to-table restaurant, some event space and a little German beer garden – something not super small but small scale,” Cort said. “I want to do something really nice there with a good chef that would make really good food for not a lot of money, good beer and then maybe some event space for weddings out there. I want to utilize the building that’s existing there – just fix it up. It’s about to fall down. It’s crumbling, literally crumbling.” The task faced by Cort is considerable. Time, vandals and general neglect have taken a heavy toll on the four-story hotel that dates to 1914. Referred to as “hotel three” after two previous hotels burned to the ground, it is the only building on the grounds that, according to Cort,

Local Developer Working To Restore Historic Byron Hot Springs Hotel

HISTORY

Captain and Mrs. Remsburg, 1942

East County’s Storied Past More than 1,000 years ago, Native Americans called the East County area home. The Bay Miwok and Yokut Indians preceded Spanish explorer Pedro Fages, who in 1772, led the first European parties through the area. More than a century passed before European settlers arrived to put down roots.

ANTIOCH

On Sept. 16, 1850, the first settlers arrived at the foot of what is now F Street in Antioch. The town was named after the ancient, biblical city in Syria. The town incorporated in February 1872 with a population of only 600. The year 1876 saw the introduction of a narrow-gauge railway between Antioch and the mining town of Stewartsville six miles to the south, at the site of today’s Black Diamond Mines Regional Preserve. In 1851, Antioch got its first school, provided by a ship owner who donated the galley of his beached vessel to serve as the building. Some of Antioch’s early businesses included brick kilns, coal mining, a copper smelter, several potteries and a distillery. By the early 1900s, Antioch was

only about 700 residents strong, but the population began to skyrocket in the 1920s with the construction of the Antioch Bridge and Fulton Shipyards. During World War II, 27 vessels were built in Antioch for the U.S. Navy. By 1970, Antioch had grown to 28,500 residents. Built on inexpensive land, residential development further increased the citizenry to an estimated 47,000 by the mid-1980s. Today, the population tops 114,000. BRENTWOOD One of the first pioneers to settle in the Brentwood area was a doctor named John Marsh. He built a stately mansion out of stone, which still stands today on Marsh Creek Road. Marsh was murdered in 1856 before he ever moved into the house. The name Brentwood is believed to have come from the Marsh family’s hometown of Brentwood, England. City development was hastened by the discovery of coal in the Mount Diablo foothills. By 1874, the first structures were popping up on Oak Street. Fertile soils and the coming of the railroad in 1890 helped make the area the largest shipping point

for grain between New Orleans and San Francisco. The English land speculation company Balfour Guthrie installed a vast irrigation system that improved land values, allowing farmers to grow row crops and fruit trees and firmly establish the town’s agricultural core. Brentwood incorporated as a city in 1948. It remained a small agricultural community until the last decade of the century, when its proximity to the financial centers of the Bay Area and its relatively affordable housing triggered rapid growth. The population grew nearly five times from 1990 to today’s 65,000-plus, bringing a suburban lifestyle and the related influx of goods and services to the formerly rural area. Efforts to preserve its agricultural heritage continues today. OAKLEY The discovery of Native American artifacts in Big Break clearly establishes Oakley as a site of that earlier culture. The first evidence of European settlers in the city can be traced to Randolph C. Marsh, one of its first landowners (no relation to pioneer Dr. John Marsh).

Pop’s Bait House, Bethel Island

In 1897, Marsh arrived and foresaw that the area could produce successful crops. He purchased 12 acres of land, plotted the town and named the first five streets Main, Acme, Ruby, Star and Home, spelling MARSH with the initials of each street name. Nicknamed “sandlappers” by critics who said crops would never grow in the sandy soil, the early settlers proved otherwise, turning Oakley into a bountiful source of fresh fruits and vegetables. In the 1930s, Oakley’s Main Street was dotted with packing sheds, and agriculture was shipped via the railroad throughout the nation. Oakley became a city in 1999. DISCOVERY BAY Discovery Bay is a unique community in Contra Costa County. The idea was born in 1970, when the Veronica Development Company envisioned a water-oriented community where you could “live where you play,” which became the town’s motto. Those who put their faith in the project haven’t been sorry. Lots they

purchased for $15,000 have sold in recent years for 10 to 15 times that amount. Developer Ken Hofmann opened sales in 1978, and buyers slept in the streets in order to get the lot of their choice. In 1984, Discovery Bay unveiled its crown jewel: an 18-hole championship golf course. The final bays of the original Discovery Bay development opened in 1988. In 1997, Discovery Bay became a community services district, assuming oversight of most of its own activities beyond land-use decisions and emergency services. Land-use regulations and police services are overseen by the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors, while fire service is provided by the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District. The expansion of the community, Discovery Bay West, began in 2000, at which time the official name of the community became The Town of Discovery Bay. In 2007, Discovery Bay was granted its own ZIP code, 94505, as its population grew past 17,000.

BETHEL ISLAND In 1860, a Mr. Stone reclaimed the land known as Bethel Island under the Swamp and Over Flowed Act of 1855. It was named Stone Tract. Ten years later, he sold the land to Maj. William K. Bethel, who used it to grow feed for the dairy herd on the island. Though it was officially named in 1898, Bethel Island actually became an island in the 1890s when surrounding sloughs were dredged. The Bethel Island Bridge, a onelane wooden plank structure, was built in 1918. During this same time, the island was farmed by William J. Hotchkiss who purchased 1,317 acres to grow potatoes, beans and sugar beets. During the 1920s and ’30s, Bethel Island became known as a fishing paradise and haven for hunters. Harbors were built along the island’s waterfront, and recreation flourished. Electricity was first brought to the island in 1946. In 2010, a new Bethel Island bridge replaced the aging wooden structure that provided the only access to the island.

BYRON

KNIGHTSEN Knightsen was founded in 1898, when the Sante Fe Railroad made its preliminary survey through the area.

HISTORY

The town of Byron was founded in 1878, when the San Pablo and Tulare Railroad Company built a track connecting Contra Costa and San Joaquin counties, though settlers had been in the area for many years. After finding no luck in the Sierra Nevada gold mines, German immigrant Henry Wilkening built a house on land he purchased near a planned railroad station. He became Byron’s first postmaster and built the town’s first hotel, saloon and livery stable. In the 1860s, R.O. Risdon discovered the Byron Hot Springs. His nephew, Lewis Risdon Mead, discovered more than 50 springs, ranging in temperature from 52 to 140 degrees. Mead developed the now-idle Byron Hot Springs, popular with the rich and famous in the 1920s and ’30s. In 1938, the resort was closed and sold to the government, which used it as a prisoner of war interrogation center during World War II. The property currently remains unoccupied.

Bert’s in the Delta, Circa 1950s

George W. Knight, a native of Maine, purchased 110 acres of land from Lazarus Barkley, acreage that eventually became the town of Knightsen. The name Knightsen was derived from Knight’s last name and the last three letters of his wife’s maiden name, Christensen. Dairies were established in the early 1900s. In the 1920s, the Knightsen Irrigation District brought water to the fields, allowing farmers to plant a wide variety of crops.

The Knightsen Farm Bureau was established in 1918, and the Farm Bureau Center is still a community gathering place. Recently, Knightsen received official historical designation for several of its downtown buildings. Historical information was compiled from “Footprints in the Sand,” by Kathy Leighton, the East Contra Costa Historical Society, the Antioch Chamber of Commerce and the Antioch Historical Society. W

CITY OF ANTIOCH

Big City, Small Town Feel Antioch — Antioch, one of the state’s oldest cities with origins dating back to 1850, has developed into a modern-day population and development hub. The once-small town’s population has shot up from 5,000 in 1940 to over 112,000 today, becoming the second largest city in Contra Costa County, offering an array of attractive affordable homes and business opportunities. What started as a quaint locale is now a cityscape with thousands of businesses thriving in the community, which offers all the amenities of modern life accompanied by nature’s pristine graces. Nestled amid housing developments, 16

shopping centers and office parks, untouched nature emerges at Black Diamond Mines Regional Preserve, Contra Loma Regional Park and along the vast banks of the San Joaquin River as it spills into the California Delta. Not far in every direction, activity springs to life in a variety of sports and leisure activities within the city’s various parks. Other popular visitor attractions include the Dow Wetlands Preserve, the Antioch Dunes National Wildlife Refuge, the Lone Tree Golf Course, Lynn House Art Gallery and the Antioch Historical Society Museum. As summer temperatures climb, the annual Contra Costa County Fair pitches

its tents at the Contra Costa Event Park, and the city’s water park splashes to life just steps from the 35,000-square-foot community center. Visitors and residents looking to turn back the clock can stroll through the historic Rivertown District, which features quaint shops cuddled up to the San Joaquin River. The area is also home to the community’s long-standing entertainment destination, El Campanil Theatre, which was built in 1928 as a vaudeville theater. It saw several owners over the year, fell into disrepair and closed down before major renovations in 2004 breathed new life into the building, making it the community hub for performing arts once again.

CITY OF BRENTWOOD

East County’s Hometown Hub Brentwood — The City of Brentwood, with its deep agricultural roots, has blossomed into a growing community. The town’s population, which hovered around 23,000 in 2000, has grown to over 65,000 making it the fastest growing city or town among 19 communities in Contra Costa County, as reported by the state department of finance statistics in 2018. Even in its growth, many longtime residents say Brentwood hasn’t lost its small-town charm. And efforts to preserve 20

the legacy of agriculture continue. In February 2020, county leaders released 18 recommendations for increasing ag sustainability and economic vitality, including a number of new agricultural land-use policy initiatives. Those initiatives sprouted from a series of public meetings that dug into the county’s agriculture future, current obstacles and agritourism opportunities and constraints, including farm-to-fork restaurants on farmland. In addition, the area boasts more than 40

local growers of farm-fresh produce sold directly to consumers. Meanwhile, the city’s downtown offers a year-round schedule of events for both residents and visitors, including concerts and movies in the park, a Saturday morning farmers market, Fourth of July parade, Hometown Halloween and a holiday parade. The downtown area is also the site of a city attraction, the Big Red Chair in City Park, which is complemented by a new inviting gazebo. W

CITY OF OAKLEY

True To Its Roots Oakley — An area rich with history, the City of Oakley is a growing community situated beside the Delta’s flowing waters. Its first residents were the Miwok Indians, whose remains and artifacts from their daily lives have been found near Big Break Marina and Village Parkway. Randolph Marsh is credited for establishing Oakley as a town in 1897 after purchasing 12 acres. According to legend, Marsh and another settler couldn’t agree upon a name at the time, so they settled it with a cribbage game. Marsh’s idea to name the area Oakley — after its once-abundant trees — won 24

when the game ended in his favor. Since that time, Oakley has grown into a bustling city with a current population of over 42,000. Residents can find a variety of restaurants, parks, community events and more in what’s commonly referred to as a place for families. In February 2020, the Oakley City Council approved key project plans for a strip retail center at the northwest corner of Empire Avenue and Neroly Road. The proposed 2.49-acre, three-parcel project at 3410 Empire Avenue is expected to include an 8,720-square-foot anchor building; an approximately 10,800-square-

foot retail establishment with a drive-thru; and a future 1,200-square-foot self-serve car wash. While the town sallies forth with development, much of the area remains true to its roots. Drivers passing through its country land can still find horseback riders traveling alongside the road, and Cypress Stables caters to the equine crowd. Dwelley Farms boasts a wide variety of fruits and vegetables grown locally along Delta Road. And Big Break Regional Shoreline offers families a chance to get outdoors, while learning about wildlife and local geology in the heart of the Delta. W

Living The Good Life Bethel Island — Life on Bethel Island is comprised of a variety of residents who embrace the abundance of yearly waterfront events, including the Frozen Bun Run, ’50s Bash, Holiday Lighted Boat Parade and Opening Day on the Delta Boat Parade. The highly anticipated Delta Coves development, featuring waterfront homes with private docks, kicked off a grand opening in September 2019 and welcomed its first homebuyers in December. In the water, the Delta’s long-standing

abundance of black bass, striped bass, catfish, crappie, perch, bullhead and sturgeon lure fishermen on a national scale. Boaters can also find fun times and friendships with the San Joaquin Yacht Club. The Bethel Island Municipal Advisory Council, established in the mid-1990s, is the voice of the residents on island and regional issues. The Bethel Island Municipal Improvement District (BIMID) provides levee maintenance and repair, and the Ironhouse Sanitary District (ISD) handles the island’s sewer services. W 25

Small Town Taking Flight Byron — One of East County’s smallest communities, the unincorporated farming Town of Byron, may be home to just over 1,200 residents, but it boasts plenty of charm. Byron is governed by the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors. The Byron Municipal Advisory Council (BMAC) — composed of local residents — advises the supervisors on local land-use, planning and zoning issues and represents Byron on the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) regarding annexation and boundary issues. Another area agency, Reclamation District 800, is responsible for the maintenance and operation of levees in and around the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Reclamation District 800’s fivemember board of directors, elected by local landowners, governs the district. The Byron-Bethany Irrigation District manages Byron’s irrigation water. In 2010, the district completed work on a $3 million upgrade to the facility — the district’s first face-lift since it was built in 1958. Police services for Byron are provided by the Contra Costa County Office of

the Sheriff, and the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District provides fire and emergency services. Tucked away in a corner of Bryon is one of the community’s best-kept secrets — the Patriots Jet Team (PJT) and Foundation. Located in a hangar in the Byron airport complex, PJT is made up of six pilots and a dedicated support crew from diverse aviation backgrounds. These men and women volunteer their time and knowledge to inspire a love of flight in local kids. Byron is also home to the famous Byron Hot Springs. Its current hotel, built in1914, reached its peak of popularity in the 1930s and was a destination for some of Hollywood’s brightest stars, including Clark Gable, who was known to enjoy the springs’ healing waters, mud baths and luxurious accommodations. While the skeleton of the hotel still sits in ruins, plans to restore the structure are being visited by developer Robert Cort, who submitted a preapplication review to county officials in December 2019 that proposes turning the inn into a brewery or winery and event center.

Maintaining Its Rural, Farming Roots Knightsen — In a town where the number of humans and horses is nearly equal, Knightsen prides itself on maintaining its rural, agricultural heritage. While neighboring towns have fallen to track-home developments and ballooned in size over recent years, Knightsen has remained small and full of rural charm. Once a railroad station, the town was established in 1898 and named for its founder, George W. Knight, and his wife, Christina Christiansen, whose names together formed Knightsen. The 4-H club later founded in 1927 is California’s oldest 4-H chapter. For a town with a long legacy, not much has changed. Ranchettes dot the

14 square miles of land, which is also home to farms, produce stands, boarding facilities and a one-block downtown area with a few shops and a post office. Another change for the sleepy town was in the educational realm. Old River Elementary School opened in the fall of 2016 for kindergarten through sixthgrade students, making it the second school in the Knightsen Elementary School District. However, it’s the things that haven’t changed, such as the Christmas parade (with a host of hooved participants) or the Knightsen Days car and tractor show, that keep Knightsen a living, breathing document of a more genial time.

Jewel Of The Delta Discovery Bay — Established in the early 1970s, Discovery Bay has evolved into a thriving year-round home for residents who enjoy small-town living against the backdrop of over 1,200 miles of Delta waterways. Residents enjoy excellent tennis facilities, a championship golf course at the Discovery Bay Country Club and several concerts and events throughout the year. Water sports abound here, including boating, windsurfing, paddle boarding, fishing and swimming. Boaters can navigate from Discovery Bay to the San Francisco Bay, giving residents water access to just about anywhere from their own backyards.

The Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District provides water, wastewater, parks, landscaping and recreation services. The board has five members who are elected by community residents. Reclamation District 800 is responsible for overseeing and maintaining the town’s levee system. It also manages water drainage and circulation in the lakes and lagoons and is governed by a five-member Board of Trustees. Discovery Bay’s Community Center provides many amenities, such as swimming, tennis, a BBQ area, dog park and activities for all ages. The town boasts award-winning schools and is home to a

full-service, deep-water yacht harbor with a chandlery, marina and shops. There are two shopping centers in town and a variety of commercial and retail outlets that include many dining opportunities. Another popular outdoor activity making waves in Discovery Bay is pickleball. In February 2020, the Discovery Bay Community Services District Board voted to apply for grant money to convert two of the community center’s tennis courts into six pickleball courts. The town’s pickleball players have banded together and raised approximately $30,000 in funds over the past two years to contribute to the project. W

There are a lot of myths that swirl around the reverse mortgage program. Initially we will answer all those questions. You, no doubt, have a friend of a friend, who has an aunt, whose nephew in-law said that reverse mortgages are bad. No one is really quite sure why they are bad, but they think it has to do with somehow losing your home or having no equity left in the end. To be clear, as long as you pay your property taxes, homeowners insurance, live in the home, maintain the home and pay your association dues, if applicable, then no one can ever, ever, make you leave your home. Even if you live to be 115 years old, no one can make you leave your home as long as you do those 5 things. As a side note, all of these ‘things’ are requirements of a traditional “forward” mortgage as well. In 2017, HUD revamped the FHA insured reverse mortgage. With the new math behind reverse mortgages today, it is virtually impossible to use all your equity. You may very well be able to utilize a reverse mortgage to better enjoy your retirement years, as well as leave a legacy to your loved ones. I feel that one of the most important aspects of our faceto-face meeting is for us to spend time together talking about your goals, your hopes and dreams – what you

expect a reverse mortgage will accomplish for you. There are so many different ways people utilize a reverse mortgage. Each person is unique, and their goals and expectations are also unique. For some, it might be help with monthly bills, or perhaps provide a safety net for the larger unexpected expenditures. For others, it may pay for travel, replacing an old car, or remodeling your home. Some use it as a financial management tool. They may use a reverse mortgage standby line of credit to hedge the markets, so they are not forced to take money out at a bad time. Another financial management aspect is that reverse mortgage proceeds are tax-fee. You may decide to utilize the tax-free reverse mortgage funds instead of using other taxable retirement assets. Another great idea is to replace your current Home Equity Line of Credit with a Reverse Mortgage Line of Credit (RMLOC). There is no payment required on the RMLOC, but you can make payments if you want to do so. Also, your FHA insured RMLOC can never be reduced, frozen, or closed by the bank, no matter what happens to the value of your home. It gives you peace of mind, flexibility and security. And the best part is that the amount available to you grows larger over time. Because the Reverse Mortgage Line of Credit grows

larger over time, I have had several clients utilize it as a type of Long-Term Care insurance. Depending on the balance of your current mortgage, you may start off with a line of credit of, say, $300,000, and in 10 years you now have $475,000.

Whatever your goals are, this is a big decision. One that deserves the respect of time, conversation, exchanging questions and answers and interacting together, face-toface. If you would like to sit down and chat, give me a call. Welcome to East County!

Discovering the Delta with Captain Morgan’s

Back at Discovery Bay Marina New to the Delta? Out of Town Guests? Planning a Special Party or Event?

ruise away on the Rosemarie, a 55-foot newly remodeled houseboat equipped to whisk patrons away for unique Delta adventures. You can either book the Rosemarie for private cruises and parties with up to 35 guests, or simply buy a couple of tickets to one of the many publicly-planned adventures posted on the website. Captain Morgan’s Delta Adventures can work with you to create your own memorable event, whether it’s a cruise to one of the Delta’s waterfront restaurants or a sunset dinner cruise on the Rosemarie.

Break away from a mundane house party and host a birthday, anniversary or engagement party while exploring the waters around Discovery Bay. Or get out of the office and throw a company party while enjoying the scenery and wildlife - both the two and fourlegged kind - that are found in and around the Delta. Cruises can be as simple as exploring the various bays of Discovery Bay, or setting course up Old River where the Orwood Railroad Bridge is open for the Rosemarie to pass under it. Public cruises include trips to Orwood Resort for brunch,

to the Sugar Barge Restaurant for lunch, and sunset dinner cruises with a buffet on board the Rosemarie. Special event cruises include Discovery Bay Opening Day in early April, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, fiesta lunch cruises, and the ever-popular Fourth of July trip to Mandeville Island for dinner and the Hilton fireworks. And of course, after Thanksgiving, the Discovery Bay Lighted Boat Parade is not to be missed as well as the regular evening cruises in and out of the bays of Discovery Bay, which are always popular and a great way to see the decorated

A volunteer effort in conjunction with the East Bay Regional Park District is underway to restore the flag barn near Vasco Road in rural Contra Costa County.

East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD) and on whose land the barn sits — was reading the conversations and the concern from the public got her thinking. Chivers reached out to her supervisors and those directly in charge of the region where the barn stands to see what needed to be done to get it restored. She said the request to revitalize the barn was met with excitement. “That flag barn holds a special place in my heart, because I’ve always commuted, and I’ve always driven by it, and it’s one of those breaths of fresh air,” said Chivers.

While time has made the barn historic, it has also taken its toll on the wood and paint, and public concern over the fate of the barn began to be noticed on social media. One local resident Jissele Chivers — who also works for the

An iconic landmark in East County is about to get a facelift. Through rolling hills and seas of grass, nothing stands out on Vasco Road quite like the historic barn with Old Glory painted along its wall. Colloquially known as “the flag barn” by locals, it was first painted after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, by local artist and San Jose Police Sgt. Paul Fontaine. At the time, Fontaine was working for the graffiti enforcement team and would drive by the barn each day on his way to work, shaking his head at the vulgar words sprayed across the structure. “I always thought it was the perfect canvas for the flag, but I kept driving,” he said. But after the attacks occurred on 9/11, he decided to turn the thought into a reality. “The barn is a statement of

AGRICULTURE California Farmland Trust is a strong advocate for local farmers and ranchers, working to protect agriculture in California from over-development. Seen here is a Brentwood farmer harvesting tomatoes last season.

WELCOME! 2020

www.eastcountywelcomeguide.net

Preserving East County’s Agriculture, Farmland

Every year, about 50,000 acres of fertile California farmland and ranchland are lost to development. That is why protection advocates across the state, including East County’s own local agency, California Farmland Trust (CFT) — the result of a 2018 merger between the Brentwood Agricultural Land Trust and the Central Valley Farmland Trust — work hard to promote, preserve and maintain precious farm and ranchland. In terms of farming, California truly is the golden state, ranking far above the other 49 states, as far as production is concerned. The USDA indicates California produces 99% of the U.S. production of almonds, artichokes, dates, figs, raisins, kiwi, olives, cling peaches, dried plums, pomegranates, rice and walnuts; and nearly 95% of the nation’s apricots, grapes, lemons, mandarin, nectarines, plums and strawberries, among other crops. A significant role for the trust is aiding farmers in preserving their property by placing easements on farmland per the request of the landowner.

The trust’s website notes, “Placing an easement on your farm is an effective way to ensure your farm remains a farm forever. When an easement is enacted, the landowner essentially either sells or donates the right to develop the land to the California Farmland Trust, which cannot exercise that right. The result is a property that cannot be developed and must always be used for agriculture. Putting an easement on a property is entirely voluntary, but once one is in place, it is permanent.” “There are a lot of opinions about what ag is going to look like in 20 years,” said Katie Otto, CFT development and operations director. “What are we doing now that’s going to be helpful, and what are we doing now that will be relevant in the future?” Earlier this year, CFT produced a short film, “Concrete California: Preventing California’s Last Harvest,” and brought it to the state capitol for a special screening. “California Farmland Trust showcased ‘Concrete California’

to propel the conversation of how we need to be strategic in our development,” said Otto. “We need to be focused on how we preserve our farmland, especially when we look at population growth. What are we doing to keep up? Protection plays a significant role in that.” “Concrete California” is roughly 25 minutes long and follows the compelling story of California farmer Jean Okuye, who chose to protect her over-100-year-old farm through the CFT. “The goal is really to get people thinking about the importance of protecting farmland in California, and how conservation easements are one of the tools that will ensure the land stays in production,” said Charlotte Mitchell, CFT executive director. “We’re all consumers, and we need to understand how the development- and growth-related decisions we make today will inevitably impact how we will feed our families and the growing population in the future.” For more information on the film, email amontzingo@cafarmtrust.org.

Vegan Or Vegetarian – It’s All Right Here

Homegrown goodness and farmto-table options abound in East County making holistic food options simple and plentiful. One popular food trend includes vegan and vegetarian diets — two popular, yet sometimes misunderstood, approaches to eating. In fact, vegan and vegetarian diets are sometimes mistaken as one and the same. While veganism is often simply defined as an approach to diet, it is much more than that. The Vegan Society defines veganism as a way of living that seeks to exclude, as far as is possible and practicable, all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or other purposes. While avoiding animalbased food products is an important component of a vegan lifestyle, committed vegans attempt to avoid all animal products, including clothing and products that might have been tested on animals. If you have been thinking about trying the vegan lifestyle but aren’t sure where to start, newcomers might find there are an abundance of choices. So what do vegans eat?

The Vegan Society notes that a vegan diet is diverse and includes fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, seeds, beans and pulses (lentils, beans and chickpeas). In the way of local dining options, Big House Beans in Brentwood serves a lavender latte made with oat milk (hold the honey) and delicious avocado toast (hold the cheese), and those looking for a tasty meal with a homemade touch can venture to MJ’s Café & Bakery, also in Brentwood, for heart-healthy oatmeal with fresh berries, brown sugar and almond milk. If the vegetarian approach sounds more appealing, there are a couple options to be considered. The Vegetarian Society defines vegetarians as people who do not eat fish, meat or chicken. But it might come as a surprise to some people to learn that vegetarians do not eat fish. Pescatarians are people who avoid meat and chicken but do eat fish. Many vegetarians choose to be so for a variety of reasons. Like vegans, many vegetarians avoid animal products to prevent the

exploitation of animals. Another reason some people follow vegetarian diets is to reduce their impact on the environment. The Vegetarian Society notes that vegetarian diets result in 2.5 times less carbon emissions than meat diets. So what do vegetarians eat? A vegetarian diet includes fruits, vegetables, grains, pulses, nuts, seeds, eggs, dairy products and honey. Vegetarians can find a spinach wrap veggie sandwich at Dino’s Sandwich Shop. Try adding hummus and olives for added flavor. Oakley Bistro Punahele Tonnelier offers a gourmet array of options from pancakes and omelettes to eggs Florentine and Hawaiian-style salmon for those pescatarians. Vegan and vegetarian diets are healthy approaches to eating that are embraced by millions of people across the globe. And with many local restaurants embracing the farm-to-fork philosophy right here in the ag core, hungry vegans and vegetarians have plenty of options while out on the town. W

~ M/M Allen, Brentwood

Brentwood... there’s so much to LOVE! Whether you are just starting out, raising a family or have raised them already, there is no place like the Brentwood community. With over 50 parks, 3 golf courses, a highly rated school district, wineries and vineyards, easy access for commuters, farms, and a wonderful small town feel, it is a Bay Area gem! This is why Jamie not only runs her business in Brentwood, but resides here with her family. Upon moving to Brentwood, Jamie immediately knew this was the place she would be able to call home forever. She loves bumping into friends at the grocery store, going downtown to MJs for Sunday brunch, hitting the Farmers Market, hosting her annual Fall Festival Client Appreciation Event at Smith Family Farm or going on a family bike ride around town. So whether you are new to the Brentwood community, have lived here for years or are just curious to learn more, please give Jamie a call. She will be more than happy to share with you all the wonderful reasons you should be calling Brentwood your home. The Connors Real Estate Team is a proud member of

Tri Delta Transit’s popular Tri MyRide ride share service offers on-demand shuttle service for East County residents via a smartphone app.

“By partnering with technology companies, Tri Delta Transit is meeting the evolving needs of passengers in our community. Tri MyRide allows our agency to provide on-demand service from the convenience of a smart phone app.” said Chief Executive Officer Jeanne Krieg. Tri Delta Transit provides over 3 million trips each year to a population of over 250,000 residents in the 225 square miles of Eastern Contra Costa County. They currently operate 15 local bus routes Monday – Friday, four local bus routes on weekends, door-to-door bus service for senior citizens and people with disabilities, on-demand rideshare services and shuttle services to community events. To learn more, visit TriDeltaTransit.com. W

passengers in an efficient manner. The service uses small, neighborhood-friendly shuttle buses that easily maneuver on residential streets. Tri MyRide operators undergo the same background screening as other Tri Delta Transit operators, and all vehicles are equipped with surveillance cameras to ensure safe transport. The shuttle buses are wheelchair accessible and accommodate people with disabilities. The cost to ride is only $2 per trip. Payment may be made through the Microtransit app or with cash. The low-cost makes Tri Delta Transit’s Tri MyRide more affordable than traditional ride-hailing services, which could cost riders at least more than three times the amount for a similar trip.

WELCOME 2020!

Last year, the Eastern Contra Costa County Transit Authority (Tri Delta Transit) announced the launch of Tri MyRide, a flexible and dynamic on-demand shuttle service operating in neighborhoods near the Antioch BART Station and Pittsburg Bay Point BART Station. Similar to ride-hailing services, Tri MyRide uses a smartphone app for riders to schedule customized curb-tocurb trips. Tri MyRide allows riders to plan their customized trips anywhere in the Hillcrest/Antioch BART service area or San Marco/Pittsburg Bay Point BART service area to BART or to a designated point of interest located in the service area. The app, known as Microtransit by TransLoc, is connected to proprietary software that allows bus operators to pick-up and drop-off
