Fires, 1943, 1873, 1869

  • April 7th 1869 Mine Fire in which 37 miners died, 1943, 1869
  • Three adjoining mines (the Crown Point, the Kentuck, and the Yellow Jacket) were working on the same east ore bodies from the 600- to the 900-foot level
  • and their extensive stopes were a maze of large resinous pine timbers.
  • The fire, of unknown origin, started on the 800-foot level of the Yellow Jacket and had been burning for several hours without knowledge owing to heavy doors in the drifts . . .
  • when the men on the morning shift were lowered down the shafts a mass of charred timbers in the stopes broke under the weight of the roof, sending a blast of deadly gas and smoke through the workings of the three mines.
  • A few were hoisted back, many were suffocated, and others burned . . . three days . . . heroic efforts were made to reach the remaining men. When it became clear that all below were dead and that not even their bodies could be recovered at that time, the shafts were sealed . . .      
  • [p. 123] "The last descent into the Crown Point prior to the second sealing of the shaft was made on April 12 (the fire occurred on the 7th) by Superintendent Jones and a young man who tried to connect a pipe with the blower tube. Foul air drove them out after fifteen minutes without making the connection.
  • After the shafts were sealed large volumes of steam were forced into the workings to check the fire.
  • Those mines, which had been among the most productive on the Lode, were practically ruined. The caved stopes smouldered for months and yielded but little good ore afterward.
  • Instead of paying dividends all three mines began to levy assessments.
  •  Another fire in the Yellow Jacket on September 30, 1873, on the 1,200-foot level, killed six more men, 1943, 1873

The shares of Con. Virginia and California, which had already fallen to 15 cents, then sold at 5 cents. The Bonanza Firm had not given the stock any support for years and the speculative public lost all interest until the low-grade operation proved unexpectedly profitable, 1943, 1920-1850

  • Over objections to a development, the Santa Monica city council enacted a zoning ordinancin 1922 and followed with one much more comprehensive in character in 1929, 1974
  • The City Administration hired a consultant, Gordon Whitall, the first Los Angeles City Planner, to rewrite the ordinance which by the time it was enacted in 1937, it had been much diluted, in response to pressure from builders and other interests. In particular, it was grossly inadequate in the matter of off-street parking requirements, 1974, 1937, 1930s, 1929, 1922
  • The Courts required that any zoning codes be flexible, 1974, 1937

In areas not zoned for that purpose. Usually such variances purported to be "for the duration of the emergency," but even so, the end of the "emergency" was not declared for many years after the termination of the conflict.

The owners of the properties came to feel that they had a vested interest in whatever operation had been permitted, whether it was a boarding house, apartment at the rear of the house, or out-of-zone industrial operations, 1974, 1940s

Wartime industries 1974, 1940s

  • In areas not zoned for that purpose. Usually such variances purported to be "for the duration of the emergency," but even so, the end of the "emergency" was not declared for many years after the termination of the conflict.
