Nate is an East Bay community papers editor for the East Bay Times and Bay Area News Group.

I’m writing this month’s article from Varazze, Italy, Alameda’s picturesque sister city on northern Italy’s Mediterranean coast. I’m here with 16 members and affiliates of Alameda’s Sister City Association, many from the Ratto, Perata and Ferro families whose grandparents and great-grandparents came to America from Varazze at the turn of the last century, in search of a better life.

My Italian counterparts’ responses reminded me of an article written by Natalie Arroyo, an inspiring young Humboldt County supervisor I recently met. Like Mayor Luigi, Natalie also turns 40 this year. She was elected to the Eureka City Council at the age of 30, becoming the youngest woman and first Latina to serve on that City Council and is Humboldt County’s first Latina supervisor.

The Civil Service Board ensures that Alameda complies with the civil service ordinance requiring that appointments are based on merit and qualification. The board established the civil service rules governing recruitment, classification, performance evaluation, leaves of absence and disciplinary appeals.

This year, Historical Advisory Board members expect to weigh in on balancing development progress at Alameda Point with protecting significant historic elements in this area. Please note that you must be a registered architect to apply for this position.The primary goal of the city of Alameda’s Housing Authority is to provide quality, affordable and safe housing for low-income families, households, seniors and veterans on the Island.
