message: The original author of this page proposed the following:
  ==Proposed geographic definition==
  This location appears on the US Geological Survey 7.5-minute quadrangle "Loma Prieta, California".USGS: Map of 7.5-minute quadrangle "Loma Prieta, California"
  The area comprises canyons along the eastern face of the Santa Cruz Mountains between Hecker Pass and Loma Prieta summit. The area would cover the canyon communities along Casa Loma and Loma Chiquita Roads. A proposed northwest extent of the area is the US Geological Survey's 
  Loma Chiquita feature at . Loma Prieta is shown to be 3,791 feet (1,155 m), Loma Chiquita is shown to be 2,586 feet (788 m) AMSL according to US Geological Survey figures. The southeast extent of the area, and possibly the lowest elevation, could be identified by the intersection of Uvas Road and Casa Loma Road at NAD83 coordinates .
  ...
  Use of the name Casa Loma is supported by the existence of Casa Loma Volunteer Fire Association (CLVFA).Web Archive: Casa Loma Volunteer Fire AssociationGilroy Dispatch: Volunteer Fire Brigades Form, September 2003Uvas Volunteer Fire Department, Coverage Area  The fire department has some level of official recognition and is dispatched by the California Department of Forestry.  One tract within this area is named Twin Falls, which runs off Casa Loma Rd. Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority lands and Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District surround this mountain community.
This proposal and supporting evidence don't line up with the historical and current term for the region, viz., Mountain Home, where "Casa Loma" is one of several communities located within it.
Furthermore, the "Casa Loma" locales referenced by the author as examples also don't support his proposal since they are officially recognized places:USGS: Casa Loma, Placer County, CaliforniaUSGS: Casa Loma, Riverside County, California
  ==Other similar-named locales in California==
  There is a Casa Loma in Placer County, California near Dutch Flat with a ZIP code of 95704. There is a smaller locale also named Casa Loma in Riverside County near the community of Lakeview.
Lastly, the author's reference to "Costa Loma" oil fields is irrelevant to his proposal:
  The name sounds similar to Costa Loma, the name of a group of wells in an active oil field along Oil Creek. The oil field is located in Santa Cruz County west of the intersection of State Route 9 and State Route 35.California Department of Conservation, Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources, Map W3-10, 08/11/2003.
Given this, the above sections have been removed from the wiki page.  There might be a stronger case for a "Casa Loma community" page, which could be addressed/discussed here.  Wahn (talk) 15:51, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
