History

The Rancho Del Puerto Mexican land grant to Mariano and Pedro Hernandez in 1844 by Governor Manuel Micheltorena extended east of the present-day Highway 33 to the San Joaquin River. The northern boundary was Del Puerto Creek and the southern boundary was just south of present-day Marshall Road.

Samuel G. Reed and Ruben S. Wade made claim to the land on January 7, 1855. A patent encompassing the land grant was signed by President Abraham Lincoln. Reed and Wade received title to 13,340 acres (54 km2) on August 15, 1864. Reed and Wade then sold the grant to J. O. Eldredge on June 18, 1866, for $5,000. Mr. Eldredge held the title for only two months before selling it to John D. Patterson on August 14, 1866, for $5,400. John D. Patterson purchased additional land and, upon his death on March 7, 1902, a total of 18,462 acres (75 km2) were willed to Thomas W. Patterson and William W. Patterson, his estate executors, and other heirs. The land was sold to the Patterson Ranch Company on May 16, 1908, for the sum of $540,000 cash gold coin. Thomas W. Patterson subdivided the land into ranches of various sizes and plotted the design of the town of Patterson. Determined to make Patterson different from most, he modeled his town after the cities of Washington, D.C., and Paris, France, using a series of circles and radiating streets. Major streets were planted with palm, eucalyptus, and sycamore trees.

The Patterson Colony map was filed with the Stanislaus County Recorders office on December 13, 1909. Sales of the ranch properties and city lots commenced. Patterson was the third city in Stanislaus County to incorporate on December 22, 1919.[8] In May 1971, the chamber of commerce approved the title of "Apricot Capital of the World" for Patterson.[9]

Government

State and national

In the California State Legislature, Patterson is in the  12th Senate District, represented by Republican Shannon Grove, and the  21st Assembly District, represented by Democrat Diane Papan.[16] In the United States House of Representatives, Patterson is in California's  10th congressional district, represented by Democrat Mark DeSaulnier.[17]

Local

The city council consists of five representatives, the mayor is elected to two-year terms and four council members are each elected in district elections to four-year terms on a staggered basis; this means that every two years there are either two council seats and the Mayor seat up for election. The current council consists of Mayor Dennis McCord and Council members Shivaughn Alves (District A), Al Parham (District B), Dominic Farinha (District C), and Cynthia Homen (District D). The City Council appoints a city manager, who hires all city staff and manages the day-to-day business of the city. Advisory bodies work with the city council and identify issues before the council makes final decisions. Advisory body members are appointed by the mayor, subject to the approval of a majority of the council.[18]

Public safety

Patterson previously had a local police department.[19] In 1998, it was merged into the Stanislaus County Sheriff's Department.[19] The county sheriff's department, through a contract with the city, provides services through Patterson Police Services.[19][20]

Culture

Media

The daily newspaper in Patterson is the Patterson Irrigator, which was founded in 1911.[21] It is located in downtown Patterson and has been at the same location since 1929.[21] The Irrigator, since 2009, is published weekly.[21]

Patterson is also the city of license for two radio stations, the iHeartRadio-affiliated country music channel KOSO and Spanish contemporary hit radio channel KTSE-FM.

Celebrations

During the first weekend in June, Downtown Patterson hosts the town's largest celebration of the year, the Apricot Fiesta. The event begins on Friday with several beauty pageants. The Patterson Library hosts an art show during the celebration, and displays on local history are held open to the public at the Patterson Museum, also known as the Center Building and located at the center of Patterson. The three-day celebration also features fireworks shows and, during early mornings, hot air balloons departing from the football stadium at Patterson High School. This celebration typically takes place on the first weekend of June.

Patterson has also been the site of the Fiestas Patrias celebration, commemorating the independence of various Latin American countries. This celebration is held in mid-September.

Education

The Patterson Joint Unified School District serves more than 5,669 students and operates four elementary schools, one middle school, one comprehensive high school and one continuation high school.

Transportation

Major highways include Interstate 5 and State Route 33. Patterson is also the eastern terminus of State Route 130 as defined by state legislation, although the route is unbuilt in Stanislaus County. A freeway has been proposed for construction along this route, passing directly through the Diablo Range west of the city toward the San Francisco Bay Area.

Public transit service is operated by the Stanislaus Regional Transit Authority, including commuter service to Dublin/Pleasanton station.
