There was this fellow called Bill Wilson

 

I have some excerpts that Bill gave at the World Conference July 2, 1960.

Some say that these Clubs should be abolished and they are the Sink Holes of inequity.

They seem to cause more trouble than in the back seat of automobiles.

 

 

Bill Said,

“Forgive me while I snicker.”

 

Bill replied that they are close but not quite of A. A.   “No Club is so damn bad that it hasn’t got

a plus sign”.  “They are something very worthwhile.”  “Above All we must be respectful”

Our sister Club,  The Alano Club West is getting a bit of bad press

 

An Excerpt From The Willow Glen Resident.

 

“City says Alano Club West  failed to obtain permits and must close.

Characteristic of the on-again, off again Alano Club West saga, the club’s Sept. 14 hearing before the San Jose Appeals Hearing Board has been postponed. 

 

The city’s code enforcement division planned to ask the hearing board to shut the Alano Clubs doors.  However, the club’s attorney had a time conflict, and the hearing was rescheduled for Oct 12.  Neighbors first complained about noise and parking issues at the club in October 2003.  In early 2005, the club was ordered to close or apply for a conditional use permit.  The city has yet to receive a completed application despite repeated compliance orders , according to city documents.  In April, the issue was supposed to go before the Appeals Hearing Board, but the city postponed the hearing to make sure it had a solid case against the club for its failure  to comply,

according to code enforcement deputy director Mike Hannon.
