RESOLUTION - Establishing a value basis for In-Lieu Park Fee adjustment
(F-205-600)
Development Services Director Hamilton related that the City's Subdivision Ordinance
requires annual review of the in-lieu fees based on the fair market value of land that would
otherwise be required for park dedication. He pointed out that this fee is only collected from
subdivided property and the base is projected on vacant land values without improvements;
this year, it is $1,936 per residential lot. He advised that a sufficient fee is needed to ensure
implementation the General Plan and Park Master ~lan.
I
Mr. Hamilton recommended that a resolution be adopted establishing land values for
residential land in the amount of $1 ,936 per residential lot, effective October 1, 2006.
In response to Council Member Pohlmeyer, Mr. Hamilton explained that the proposed fee
is higher than the current fee of $1 ,232 due to increases in the real estate market. He added
that it is conceivable that with a softening of the real estate market, the amount will be
reduced next year.
Kent Dagg, Chief Executive Officer of the Shasta Builders' Exchange (SBE), stated that the
SBE has not had sufficient time to fully review the changes and, therefore, does not have an
opinion at this time. However, he believed the methodology for calculating the fee should
not be tied to the real estate market. He believed the real estate market is too volatile to
provide an accurate picture of actual land values and asked that the City Council review the
cumulative effect of the development impact fees which are becoming prohibitive. He
further suggested that the City consider privatization of park maintenance to determine if a
savings is possible.
I
Mayor Murray concurred that the feasibility of a cumulative fee should be studied. He
pointed out, however, that the Parks, Trails, and Open Space Master Plan was the result of
study, discussions, and input from the community on the direction the City should proceed,
and it would be undercutting those requests not to fund the proposed projects to the best of
the City's ability.
In response to Council Member Pohlmeyer, City Attorney Duvernay explained that although
the City Council has some discretion in the amount required for various impact fees, those
8/1/2006
179
fees are generally charged to mitigate impacts caused by the development. He pointed out
that if the fees charged do not fully mitigate the impact, there could be a situation produced
where a developer would be unable to obtain a mitigated negative declaration because it
could not be said that the impacts are fully mitigated.
Council Member Pohlmeyer asked that the matter be deferred to the September 5,2006, City
Council meeting to provide staff with time to develop an ordinance that would provide a
three- or five-year average fqr the basis of land value.
I
Co~unity Services Director Ni~mer clarified hat the fee is used to purchase land when a
d~veloper h~s not dedicated a portion of his development for parks, and it would be self-
defeating to accept a lesser fee that does not equate to the value of the land being retained by
the developer. Ms. Niemer explained that the 'rationale is to make an equal impact of funds
or land dedication on the particular 4eveloper ~o that it is not easier to pay a fee than provide
a park.
MOTIO:N: Made by Council Member Mathena, seconded by Council Member Stegall,
adopting Resolution No. 2006-163, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding,
establishing fair market values for various types of residential lands , and the resultant in-lieu
fees, t'o be used as a basis for fees to be paid in lieu of park and recreational land dedications
in the amount of$1,936 peruIJ!t.

RESOLUTION - Approving equity adjustments to the Executive Management Pay-for-
Performance Salary Plan
(P-100-320)
Personnel Director Johnson stated that some employees such as Department Directors and
Managers are not represented by a labor organization which makes it incumbent on the
Personnel Department to periodically survey other comparable cities to determine if any
adjustments to th,e Salary Plan are warranted. Such a survey was conducted and it was
determined ~hat equity issues existed with the current salary ranges for the Assistant City
Engineer, Foreman-Parks, City qerk, ~nd City Treasurer. She pointed out that the Assistant
City Engineer is making only $11.00 per month more than the Project Coordinator he

Ms. Johnson recommended that a resolution be adopted amending the Executive
Management Pay-for-Performance Salary Plan increasing the salary range of the Assistant
City Engineer to $5,160-$8,077, eliminating the classification of Foreman-Parks and adding
Parks Superintendent with a salary range of $3,929 - $6,126, and increasing the City Clerk
and City Treasurer salary ranges to $4,495 - $7,028. The changes to be effective August 1,
2006.
Council Members Pohlmeyer and Mathena expressed concern that Redding employee
salaries not be based on what other cities pay for similar work, pointing out that all cities are
unique and comparisons are difficult. Ms. Johnson responded that the salary ranges generally
reflect the amount necessary to attract and retain good employees.
City Manager Starman inteIjected that in addition to the external comparison, staff performed
an internal review and determined that even though the City Clerk and City Treasurer are
department head level positions, they actually make less than some mid-management level
positions.
I
Mayor Murray pointed out that the City Clerk and City Treasurer salary adjustments are in
recognition of their Department Director status, however, the $600 stipend paid for their
elected office will not be increased.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Mathena, seconded by Council Member Stegall,
adopting Resolution No. 2006-164, a res'olution of the City Council of the City of Redding,
amending the Executive Management Pay- for- Performance Salary Plan increasing the salary
range of the Assistant City Engineer to $5,160 - $8,077, eliminating the classification of
Foreman-Parks and adding Parks Superintendent with a salary range of$3,929 - $6,126, and

RESOLUTION - Approving bringing Liability Claims Administration In-house
(R-100-550)
Personnel Director Johnson recalled that last year, the City Council authorized the Workers'
Compensation Claims Program to be performed in-house to streamline the process, and to
date, the Risk Management Department has saved the City over $250,000. Because of the
success of that program, Ms. Johnson stated that staff reviewed the feasibility of bringing the
Liability Claims Administration Program in-house also and believes it will be equally
successful. She pointed out that the current agreement with Bragg and Associates costs the
City $92,500 annually and will expire June 30, 2007. She related that a Senior Personnel
Analyst and a part-time clerk could be hired to run the in-house program for $95,000
annually, but could also perform personnel investigations currently contracted to private
investigators as well as a variety of other duties. She added that it is proposed that the Senior
Personnel Analyst serving in the Claims Examiner position would occupy the vacant office
in the City Attorney's Department, although he/she would fall under the jurisdiction of the
Personnel Department.
Ms. Johnson recommended that a resolution be adopted adding 1.5 full-time-equivalent
(FTE) positions to the Risk Management Division to bring Liability Claims Administration
in-house for fiscal year 2006-07.
I
In response to Council Member Pohlmeyer, Ms. Johnson stated that if the Claims Program
was brought in-house and for some reason did not work as anticipated, there are several
agencies that can be contracted to provide interim services or full service. She added that it
is her intent to add depth to the system by cross-training other employees.
