The Alamitos Creek Bridge will be name in memory of Kitty Monahan, a preservationist and historian who was pivotal in the creation of Almaden Quicksilver County Park.
Some rules are made to be ignored, and we’re lucky the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors had the sense to disregard one of its own.
Supervisor Joe Simitian proposed renaming the bridge on Alamitos Road, just south of Bertram Road, in her memory after a New Almaden resident contacted his office with the idea. He first ran the plan past Monahan’s brother, Richard, who told him the idea was wonderful because “Kitty bridged so many things. Alamitos Creek can be another one.”
“Setting aside that lack of clarity, this situation is unique,” he wrote in a supporting memo. “This is a bridge in the public right of way, over a creek that is a community asset, located within the Almaden Quicksilver County Park; Ms. Monahan was pivotal in the effort to establish that park.”
