RecreationandParkCommission | 2018-04-12 | 5 | Bohol Circle Letterhead.docx - Google Docs Page 1 of 1 CIRCLE the Founded 1936 * 1815 Union St. Alameda, CA 94501 Tel: (510) 522-6467 Officers: Myrna Sale Cajilog To: The Alameda Recreation and Park Commission and April 11, 2018 President Alameda City Council Derrick Cagaanan We are writing on behalf of Bohol Circle, one of the oldest surviving civic organizations in Vice President Alameda bringing together the Filipino community for over 80 years. It is also the longest surviving Filipino-American civic organization in America. We have been especially Herminia Gonzaga grateful for the Planning Department's recent attention to visible representation of all Treasurer parts of the Alameda community, especially historically underrepresented people and Alicia Larsen groups. It is exciting to see Alameda opening up to its past and at long last recognizing key Assistant Treasurer pieces of the island's heritage. Crystal Faith Cajilog Secretary With this in mind, we understand that a new waterfront park is being planned at the foot of Fifth Street in the Alameda Landing project. As we understand the process, the park's Remy Nieto plans will be coming forward to the Planning Board and Recreation and Park Commission Assistant Secretary in May of 2018. We would like to request that the Recreation and Park Commission, and Phil Gucor the City Council be asked to take action in the honoring of Alameda's long-time Filipino Auditor community by choosing Bohol Circle as the name for this new park. Bohol Circle is already on the City's list of approved names and represents a decades-long presence in the city of Norma Loquelliano Alameda. We feel the naming of an important new recreational area after Bohol Circle will Assistant Auditor honor the legacy not just of the Filipino-American community in Alameda and the Bay Sarah Gucor Area, but also appropriately recognize the many Alamedan Filipino-American leaders who Public Relations Officer have brought together people from our city and the region to ensure that our community members were supported and our voices heard. Arcadio Japos Sgt At Arms In writing to you, we hope that you will bring forth a recommendation for naming this Expedito Nieto space after Bohol Circle, helping to give visibility a longtime community in Alameda that Sgt At Arms went unseen for many, many years. If there is anything that we can provide to help Mike Arboles support this request, please feel free to let us know. Sgt At Arms Thank you for your continued support.
