RESOLUTION 65-6 EXPRESSING THE COMMUNITY'S LOSS <br />IN THE DEATH OF WARREN K. HILLYARD AND APPRECIATION <br />FOR HIS LONG PUBLIC SERVICE AND GREAT CONTRIBUTION <br />TO THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AND THE COUNTY OF ORANGE, <br />CALIFORNIA <br /> <br /> WHEREAS, the death of WARREN K. HILLYARD at the beginning of <br />this new year again called attention to his contributions to our <br />City and County; and <br /> <br /> WHEREAS, for many years Mr. Hillyard held the office of County <br />Surveyor thereby contributing to all the boundaries and monuments of <br />cities, districts and private property throughout the County; and <br /> <br /> WHEREAS, in the late 1920's Mr. Hillyard advanced the idea <br />that the County Civic Center should be enlarged and re-established <br />to include the then existing County-owned property and property lying <br />westerly thereof between Sixth and Eighth Streets toward Flower Street <br />and should encompass the City of Santa Aha buildings together with <br />State and Federal buildings. He was then a lone voice which has now <br />been heard by most of the informed citizens throughout the City and <br />County and the establishment of this Civic Center will be a living <br />memorial to him; and <br /> <br /> WHEREAS, Mr. Hillyard long had great interest in the history <br />of his County and served on the Board of Bowers Museum for this City. <br />In addition to looking back, he looked into the future and proposed <br />utilizating the air space over our central City streets for building <br />structures to avoid the land wasting spread of short life smaller <br />buildings in what should be residential property. <br /> <br /> NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That the City Council of the <br />City of Santa Aha expresses for its official family and the many <br />friends of "CAP" HILLYARD their appreciation for his contributions, <br />his public service, and his guiding vision and regret that he is no <br />longer with us. <br /> <br /> PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Santa <br />Ana at its regular meeting held on the 18th day of January, 1965. <br /> <br />ATTEST: <br /> <br />CLERK OF THE COUNCIL <br /> <br />STATE OF CALIFORNIA) <br />COUNTY OF ORANGE ) <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA ) <br /> <br />SS <br /> <br /> I, DORIS M.
