My fondest memory was waiting for Santa and Mrs. Claus to arrive at the mall via helicopter. I stood in anticipation with my husband and daughter and all the other families anxiously waiting for them to land. I was so proud when they landed and stepped out and was happy to see them as they were there in all their glory ⦠my Mom and Dad, that is. Yes, they were Mr. & Mrs. Santa Claus at Gateway Mall for many years. Not many daughters can claim having a personal connection to the Guy in the Big Red Suit!
PLEASANTON â In an effort to revamp Paratransit Service for seniors, the council backed a transfer of management from the city to Black Tie Transportation.
Black Tie provides limousine rentals to areas such as executive airports, wine country and gaming casinos in rural California areas.
The council approved the negotiations in a 4-0 vote at its Dec. 1 Zoom meeting. Mayor Jerry Thorne was absent.
The city wants to transfer the management on Feb. 1, Recreation Manager Jay Ingram said.
There wonât be any limousine rides for seniors. Black Tie will use vans from among the recently acquired portion of the cityâs fleet. The firm also will acquire a couple of new vans in the first and third years with the city paying $66,000 for each of the two vans. Those costs are figured into the total new annual average that is saving the city money.
