Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
I
City Clerk Strohmayer advised that no protests were received.
Development Services Director Hamilton provided an overview of the Report to Council,
dated July 30, 2001, incorporated herein by reference, regarding amendments to the Redding
Municipal Code relating to extensions of time for tentative parcel maps and tentative
subdivision maps. He advised that the amendments are in response to a revision of the State
Subdivision Map Act, Section 66452.6(e), which provides that local agencies must give a
subdivider an opportunity to seek extensions of a tentative parcel or subdivision map of up
to five (5) years. The City of Redding's Subdivision Ordinance allows a single three-year
extension, the amending ordinance will bring the City into compliance with State law.
08/21/2001
179
Mr. Hamilton explained that the revised ordinance will allow an extension of up to three
years for the first request and an additional request would be for no more than two years, for
a total of five additional years. He noted that the original approval of a tentative parcel or
subdivision map has a three-year time period, and that, combined with the two possible
extensions, will provide a total maximum time for development of eight years. He added
that the requirement to provide extensions does not require approval of a request for an
extension, but only that the request be heard and considered.
I
Development Services Director Hamilton recommended that the proposed ordinance
amending Redding Municipal Code Sections 17.12.090 and 17.24.020, be offered for first
reading by title only, and the full reading be waived.
Mayor McGeorge determined that no one present wished to address this matter and closed
the public hearing.

dated August 2,2001, incorporated herein by reference, relating that City Council Policy No.

prior to publishing the notice of hearing.
I

UPDATE ON CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS - Stillwater Industrial Park
(A-050-080 & E-050)
Economic Development Director Mitchell provided an update of the Stillwater Industrial
Park Project (Project), recalling that the original project proposed the use of approximately
480 acres in the area of Rancho and Airport Roads. He related that the rationale associated
with the large area identified for the Project is to provide larger size industrial lots to meet
future demands. Mr. Mitchell indicated that many agencies would have developed two
separate industrial parks to accommodate different types of industrial uses; however, the goal
of the Stillwater Project is to combine many types of industrial users - from food processors
to electronics manufacturers within the same project, applying mixed-use to the fullest.
According to Mr. Mitchell, this Project will provide the greatest significance economically
toward the long-term stability of the region.
I
Mr. Mitchell advised that the Project places lighter industrial uses to the front entry areas of
the Park in order to preserve the unobstructed view and aesthetic appeal of the drive through
the Project, with heavier industrial uses located to the south, away from adjacent residential
areas. He pointed out that utilities will be located in the extreme north ofthe project, hidden
from view, and housed underground. He noted that while a substation will be visible in the
extreme south, it will be located in an area designated for truck access where heavier
industrial users will be located.
Mr. Mitchell advised that floor area ratios for the project, which amount to the footprint of
the industrial buildings as they relate to the entire parcel, dedicates 35% of the project area
to industrial buildings and 30% to professional office buildings, in conformance with studies
which indicate these percentages are a good basic ratio.
I
Mr. Mitchell continued that between the two project phases, (total of383 gross acres), 247
acres have been designated as open space. This open space will provide the opportunity to
integrate a full trail system into the project to provide circulation for pedestrian movement
and serve as a component of the amenities.
The final totals for building area are:
Light Industrial
General Industrial
Professional/Office
TOTAL
1,448,000 square feet
855,000 square feet
209,000 square feet
5,512,000 square feet
Mr. Mitchell stated the environmental document should be circulated in November of2001
for public comment, and City Council review by February of2002. He noted that $430,000
has been received from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the
Economic Development Agency (EDA) and can be applied to engineered drawings as
allowed by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) if the action is reversible, such
as pre-construction drawings. It is hoped that by October 2001 pre-construction drawings
and bid documents will be prepared and ready for project approval. He believed that phased
construction could begin in Summer 2002, commencing with the widening of Airport Road,
construction of a bridge over Stillwater Creek, and a complete set of engineered drawings
for the entire project.
I
Mr. Mitchell explained that once Council approval is received and engineering documents
are produced, the project will be marketable, with actual construction of buildings as users
are secured.
City Manager Warren interjected that the City did not currently own the property. The
Economic Development Corporation (EDC) still has an option for the property, and it will
be necessary to complete acquisition of the property before attempting to market the project.
08/21/2001
181
In response to City Manager Warren's question regarding work currently underway in
anticipation of the project, Mr. Mitchell stated that the Knighton Road route construction is
in progress, which extends from the Airport to Interstate 5, with completion expected by next
year.
I
Mr. Mitchell advised the cost of Phases I and II is approximately $11 million, with $50,000
received in. the form of a technical assistance grant for environmental documents and
$430,000 received for pre-construction documents. He continued that application has been
made for an appropriation of$1 million, with the assistance of Senator Diane Feinstein's
office, as well as an application submitted for a $2.5 million grant from the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA), to include a 45% match of funds, for infrastructure costs related to
water and sewer for the project.
In response to Council Member Kight regarding the number of building sites available in the
project, Mr. Mitchell advised that the building sites will range from 6 to 115 acres, but can
be divided into smaller parcels. He stated that the intent is to keep two or three large parcels,
allocating the vast majority of remaining parcels at 5 to 15 acres, keeping low intensity users
as buffers.
Council Member Kight questioned the anticipated cost of Phase I, specifically construction
of the bridge across Stillwater Creek and basic infrastructure on the east side of the Creek.
Mr. Mitchell advised that those figures will be available at the end of the week, however,
he estimated the cost at approximately $3 million.
No action was required on this informational item.

ELECTRIC UTILITY'S MONTHLY FINANCIAL REPORT FOR JUNE 2001
(B-130-070)
Electric Utility Director Fieder provided an overview of the Report to Council dated August
10,2001, incorporated herein by reference, advising that retail revenues were 3.2% below
projections due in part to mild weather and conservation efforts during the fiscal year. He
noted that although wholesale power sales were 1,056.2% above projections, it was not
anticipated that such sales will continue into this fiscal year. He advised that retail power
sales revenue is 3.2%, or $2,306,939 below projections and wholesale power sales to date
are 1,056.2% or $157,262,720 above projections. Operating revenue after energy costs is
167.7%, or $57,315,660 above projections. The total cost of electricity through June 2001
is $98,741,742 or 183.~% above projections. The Utility's earnings before interest,
depreciation, and amortization were at 282.3%, or $59,820,789 above plan. The current
outstanding balance for the Debt Reduction Program is $73.7 million.
Mr. Fieder commented on the Activities Update, stating that the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (FERC), in an attempt to mitigate the irrationality of the market, was slow to
act, which appears to have penalized utilities that complied with FERC's direction.
Electric Utility Director Fieder recommended that the City Council approve the Electric
Utility's Monthly Financial Report for June 2001.
Mayor McGeorge and Council Members thanked the Electric Utility Department for a job
well done.
I
By consensus of the City Council, the Electric Utility Monthly Financial Report for June
2001, was accepted.
MONTHL Y FINANCIAL REPORT - General Fund
(B-130-070)
Administrative Services Director Bachman provided an overview of the Report to Council
dated August 3, 2001, incorporated herein by reference, noting that while sales tax was very
strong this year, a decline in sales tax revenue is projected for Fiscal Year 2001-02. He
pointed out that property tax revenues did not meet projections due to housing sales and
development. He advised total revenue to date is $44.2 million or $2,312,934 (5.5%) above
staffs original cash flow projection. Expenditures to date, excluding encumbrances, total
$41,927,729 or $4,806,444 (10.37%) below staffs original projection.
08/21/2001
182
In response to City Manager Warren, Mr. Bachman advised the $2 million additional revenue
noted in the report is not yet reflected in the ten-year plan.
Administrative Services Director Bachman recommended that the City Council accept the
General Fund's Monthly Financial Report for June 2001.
By consensus of the City Council, the General Fund Monthly Financial Report for June 2001
was accepted.
ORDINANCE - Adding Redding Municipal Code Section 16.20.175, Conditional Waiver
of Impact Fees for Industrial Users
(F-205-600)
City Attorney Wingate recalled that City Council'Policy No. 804, approved by resolution,
allows Council to waive development fees under its Industrial Development Incentive Policy
when a developer meets the criteria as set forth in the Policy. However, adoption of the new
development impact fee ordinance, codified as Chapter 16.20 in the Redding Municipal
Code, which sets all impact fees including impact fees for industrial development, requires
cleanup legislation to coordinate the ordinance with the City's Industrial Development
Incentive Policy as set forth in City Council Policy No. 804. Mr. Wingate explained that
because a resolution cannot modify an ordinance, it is necessary to include a provision
authorizing the waiver of impact fees pursuant to the City's Industrial Development Incentive
Policy, which is accomplished through the proposed ordinance.
I
City Attorney Wingate recommended that Ordinance No. 2287 be offered for first reading
by title only, and the full reading be waived.
Council Member Kight offered Ordinance No. 2287 for first reading, an ordinance of the
City Council of the City of Redding adding Redding Municipal Code Section 16.20.175,
Conditional Waiver of Impact Fee for Industrial Users, authorizing the conditional waiver
of development fees relative to the Industrial Development Incentive Policy as set forth in
City Council Policy No. 804.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Kight, seconded by Pohlmeyer, that the full reading
of Ordinance No. 2287 be waived and the City Attorney be instructed to read the full title.
The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
I
Ordinance No. 2287 is available in the office of the City Clerk.
