Ms. Niemer introduced Dr. Randy Smith, one of the founding chairs of this event. I Dr. Smith thanked the City for its support and acknowledged former Mayor Ken Murray for starting the creek cleanup project. Dr. Smith also acknowledged Redding Electric Utility and the Redding Police Department for their contributions to the event. Last year, the local event 9/15/2009 225 accounted for 10% of the debris collected in the entire State of California on Coastal Cleanup Day, now in its 25th year. Dr. Smith noted that Redding's continued success with this program sets it apart and is what the state is striving to achieve throughout California. The current project is designed to lessen the budgetary impact of tipping fees for disposal of collected material and will focus on removing non-native vegetation along the river trail. Commercial chippers are being supplied by Bureau of Land Management, California Conservation Corps, McEntire Landscaping and the McConnell Foundation, to facilitate the work of 500 volunteers in restoring the historical views of the south bank of the Sacramento River.

I PERMITS AND PERMIT APPLICATIONS - Authorize the Building Official to grant an automatic 180-day extension retroactive to permits and permit applications valid on or after July 1,2009 [F-205-600] Development Services Director Hamilton recalled that a six-month extension to active building permits was granted earlier this year, which expired on July 1,2009. Mr. Hamilton recommended that an additional six-month extension be granted to the life of building permits and building-permit applications that were active as of July 1, 2009, to allow proponents of many worthwhile development projects to retain their current investments in plans and building permit fees and to assist the local economy, property owners and the construction industry in weathering the severe economic downturn. City and State building codes provide flexibility to the Building Official to make this type of determination, but due to the broad scope of the action, Mr. Hamilton requested Council approval. MOTION: Made by Council Member Jones, seconded by Council Member McArthur, to authorize the Building Official to grant an automatic 180-day extension, retroactive to permits and permit applications valid on or after July 1, 2009. .The Vote: Unanimous Ayes I RESOLUTION - Authorizing the Police Department to establish eligibility to participate in the Federal Surplus Property Program through the State Agency for Surplus Property [P-I50-150] In response to Council Member McArthur, City Manager Starman stated that each city department could seek eligibility to participate in the Federal Surplus Property Program in the future and that the City had previously participated in the state surplus program with mixed results. Currently, a unique opportunity exists for the Redding Police Department to obtain ballistic material from the California Highway Patrol and is, therefore, the appropriate applicant at this time. Mr. Starman further advised that the City has an active Surplus disposal program via auctions and internet technology. MOTION: Made by Council Member McArthur, seconded by Council Member Jones, adopting Resolution No. 2009-176, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding, authorizing the Redding Police Department to establish eligibility to participate in the state and federal surplus property program. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Resolution No. 2009-176 is on file in the Office of the City Clerk. RESOLUTION - To suspend reductions in utility late payment penalties for late notices and final disconnect notices [F-205-600/E-090-IOO] City Manager Starman recalled that while considering budget reductions at the Council 9/15/2009 226 meeting on September 1,2009, a suggestion was made to postpone reductions in utility late payment penalties for late notices and final disconnect notices until the annual sales tax revenue for the City returned to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006, amount (adjusted for inflation) and use the funds to maintain police personnel slated for lay-off. Mr. Starman advised that Finance Director Strong recommended approval of a resolution to suspend reductions in late fees and that both were available to answer any questions. Danny Smetak, Chris Mills, and Tyler Lanaam, Redding Police Officers, expressed appreciation and support for the continued funding of crucial public safety personnel, describing benefits of the proposed resolution action and citing that the officers slated for lay-off have responded to approximately 1,000 calls for service since the beginning of August 2009. I Muriel Almquist, Charlene Scates, Fred Hess, Bill Ream, and Gary Cadd opposed postponing the reduction oflate fees citing that: it amounts to a tax on the poor, may not be legal, and adds to the difficulties that low-income households struggle with day-to-day. Council Member Stegall clarified that $619,000 is the impact on the General Fund for the reduction to late payment penalties for late notices and final disconnect notices only, and that the previously discussed amount of $700,000 included other expenses incurred by the General Fund related to the implementation of other Utility Billing Review Committee recommendations. Council Member Jones relayed that, upon further consideration, he favors keeping the changes to REU late fees intact and reiterated his opinion that monies generated by REU should stay in the utility's enterprise fund. Mr. Jones further stated that it was not equitable to continue to make cuts in the fire department and not the police department and opined that waiting for city revenue to return to 2006 levels may take years. Council Member McArthur supported the reduction of REU late fees. Council Member Dickerson observed that the proposed postponement of implementation of recommended late fee reductions and the proposed alternative use ofthis revenue to maintain public safety staff would impact the police department in a distinctly different way than a similar amount of funding to the fire department to keep a fire station open, since police were slated to lose personnel and fire was not. Loss of personnel can reduce the effectiveness of the department to protect the City. I Mr. Dickerson inquired about labor negotiations with the International Association of Firefighters Local 1934. Mr. Starman responded that a closed session was scheduled for later that evening, however, he stated that negotiations are on-going and he perceives a genuine. interest, but no agreement has been reached nor any member action taken at this point in time. Council Member Stegall reiterated how difficult budget decisions have been and recognized that many people in the community are being affected by extreme hardships caused by national economic conditions. Ms. Stegall also pointed out the many other changes that had been implemented to assist REU customers who found themselves in dire circumstances including: (1) extending the billing period without late fees by one day to accommodate customers who drop payments in the drop box on the same day they are due; (2) granting a one-time annual waiver oflate fees per customer request; (3) relaxing the criteria to qualify for payment extensions and payment plans; (4) increasing the CARES program assistance amount and frequency; (5) increasing the amount of kilowatts hours available under the Lifeline program; and (6) aggressively promoting and improving availability of information about assistance programs offered by REU. I Mayor Bosetti commented on the Council's struggle to determine the best alternatives in the face of impossible choices. Mr. Bosetti acknowledged the UBRC's work and expressed his appreciation. He concluded that, at this time, public safety was a higher priority than the reduction of utility late fees. Mr. Dickerson clarified that the reduction in late. fees would not be rescinded, rather suspended to a point in time when the City is not suffering such economic restraints. He further asserted that if public safety is the Council's priority, this action is necessary. 9/15/2009 227 MOTION: Made by Council Member Jones, seconded by Council Member McArthur that Redding Electric Utility late fees be suspended for six-months with the resulting revenue divided equally between fire and police departments, on the condition that each bargaining unit match the amount with concessions covering the same time period. The Vote: AYES: NOES: ABSTAIN: ABSENT: Council Members - Jones, McArthur Council Members - Dickerson, Stegall, and Bosetti Council Members - None Council Members - None I Motion failed.

The Vote: AYES: NOES: ABSTAIN: ABSENT: Council Members - Dickerson, Stegall, and Bosetti Council Members - Jones, McArthur Council Members - None Council Members - None Resolution No. 2009-177 is on file in the Office of the City Clerk. I COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT - Oasis Road Interchange, Phase 1 Project [G-030-110/ A-050-300-050/B-130-070] Transportation and Engineering Director Crane provided an update on the current status of the Oasis Road Interchange-Phase 1 project, the Project Study Report (PSR), and the Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) grant application. He stated that the next step is Federal Highway Administration acceptability and it is anticipated that the City's request will be submitted to U.S. Department of Transportation early next month, along with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) approved PSR and appropriate environmental compliance documentation. Mr. Crane recalled that the Oasis Road Interchange-Phase I Project (Project) was selected as the City's American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) priority project at the Priority Project Setting Workshop on February 19, 2009. He noted that at the April 7, 2009, Council meeting, staff was directed tQ pursue construction funding for completion ofthe loop on-ramp and temporary traffic signals at the off-ramp and on-ramp terminus within the interchange utilizing ARRA funding from the approximately $3.55 million in federal stimulus monies being allocated by the Shasta County Regional Transportation Planning Agency. I In that vein, Levenson Development Corporation (LDC), the project development consultant, submitted 60 percent ~omplete plans to the City and Caltrans last month, which have been reviewed, and LDC is now preparing 95 percent complete plans, specifications and estimates, due to the Engineering Department by the end of October. Completion of environmental compliance is anticipated in early October, with 100 percent complete plans, specifications, estimates, environmental compliance, and other necessary documents scheduled for completion by early December. The current estimate for completion of the loop on-ramp, temporary traffic signals at the off-ramp and on-ramp terminus within the interchange, and related construction support is $2.8 million. A delta pavement preservation project has been targeted for any ARRA funds not used on the Phase 1 Project. Mr. Crane advised that the next step in delivering the Project to construction is the Cooperative Agreement with Caltrans, a legal document as described in the staff report, herein incorporated by reference. He relayed that Caltrans had expressed significant concern about the mainline impact of the Oasis Road Interchange and related growth to Interstate 5 (1-5). He briefly reviewed the proposed traffic monitoring plan, a ramp metering agreement, and cost sharing of a ramp meter. Mr. Crane recommended that staffbe directed to negotiate a Cooperative Agreement with 9/15/2009 228 Caltrans for the Project and that direction be provided on addressing mainline I - 5 congestion- related impacts resulting from the interchange improvements in the Cooperative Agreement. In response to Council Member McArthur, Mr. John Bolinski, Caltrans District 2 Director, stated that a strong partnership had been developed over the years, specifically relating to this project. MOTION: Made by Council Member Jones, seconded by Council Member McArthur, to direct staff to negotiate a Cooperative Agreement with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) for the Oasis Road Interchange Phase 1 project. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes DONATION OF BICYCLES TO NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS [S-020- 5 50/S-020-650] In response to Council Member McArthur, Municipal Utilities Director Tippin explained that, in the past, the Solid Waste Transfer Station (city dump) conducted auctions to sell useable items that had been discarded. Unfortunately, associated costs were higher than revenues generated and the practice was discontinued. Currently, a substantial number of bicycles that are in very good condition are discarded at the Transfer Station. I Mr. Tippin recommended that Council authorize donation of discarded bicycles to non-profit organizations who would make any needed repairs and then give the bicycles to disadvantaged families. Mr. Tippin concluded that this practice does have the potential for expansion if it proves to be successful. MOTION: Made by Council Member McArthur, seconded by Council Member Jones, to authorize donating discarded bicycles to non-profit organizations for repair and distribution at little or no charge to low income families. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes ORDINANCE - Amending Redding Municipal Code Sections 6.14.130 and 6.14.140 to clarify the prohibition on loans and the authorized means to purchase playing chips at card rooms [L-070-030] City Attorney Duvernay provided background information, explained concurrent jurisdiction, and highlighted the proposed changes to Redding Municipal Code (RMC) sections related to playing chips and card room practices. I In response to the State Department of Justice Division of Gambling Control's annual inspection report, Mr. Duvernay recommended that a draft ordinance amending RMC Sections 6.14.130 and 6.14.140 to clarify ambiguity related to the prohibition of loans and the use of personal checks for the purchase of playing chips be offered for first reading; recommended waiving the full reading; and requested to introduce the ordinance by reading the full title only. MOTION: Made by Council Member Stegall, seconded by Council Member Jones to (1) amend Redding Municipal Code Sections 6.14.130 and 6.14.140 in order to clarify ambiguity related to the prohibition ofloans and the use of personal checks for the purchase of playing chips at the Casino Club Card Room; (2) offer Ordinance No. 2439 for first reading, an ordinance of the City Council of the City of Redding, amending Redding Municipal Code Sections 6.14.130 and 6.14.140 as stated above; (3) waive the full reading; and (4) instruct the City Attorney to read the full title only. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes ORDINANCE - Amending Redding Municipal Code Chapter 2.04 to change the start time for regular council meetings and to codify other rules related to public comment to the City Council [A-050-060] City Attorney Duvernay recalled that on September 1, 2009, consensual agreement was reached to change the start time of regular Council Meetings from 7:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on the first and third Tuesday of every month, and to move closed session agenda items to follow completion of the open session. In addition, he clarified Brown Act regulations and expounded on rare exceptions to a three-minute limit for public comment. I 9/15/2009 229 City Attorney Duvernay recommended that a draft ordinance amending certain sections of Redding Municipal Code Chapter 2.04 to (1) change the start time for regular Council meetings; (2) reflect that "closed session" items will be heard at the end of the regular meeting calendar; (3) incorporate a three-minute time limit on speakers during public comment; (4) limit non-agenda public comment at the beginning of the meeting to 30 minutes, with the remaining speakers trailed to the end of the meeting; and (5) establish a general rule that requires submission of speaker cards for public comment prior to the calling of an item be offered for first reading, recommended waiving the full reading and requested to introduce the ordinance by reading the full title only. I Gary Cadd, Redding resident, questioned when closed session action would be reported and opposed speaker cards being required prior to the item being called. Mr. Duvernay assured that Council would follow Brown Act protocol and reconvene to open session, report on any action as required, and officially adjourn the meeting. Any reportable action would be memorialized in writing and would be available from the City Clerk's Office at the start of the business day following every Council meeting. Council Member Jones opposed changing the start time of Council meetings and changing the order of closed session agenda items. Council Member Dickerson suggested better staff control of the number of agenda items to mitigate long meetings and opposed the proposed changes to start time and order of closed session agenda items. Council Member Stegall favored changing the meeting time, emphasizing that meetings lasting late into the night was not a small matter or an occasional occurrence, and that it affects the public's ability to participate and staff and Council's ability to function at an efficient level. I Council Member McArthur strongly supported moving closed session to follow open session, citing examples of feeling rushed and hesitant to ask important questions because it was already past time to begin open session. Ms. McArthur disagreed with insisting that staff control the length of meetings by limiting the number of agenda items, noting that the business of the City must be addressed in a timely manner. Mayor Bosetti concurred with Council Member McArthur regarding closed seSSIOn scheduling and suggested starting meetings at 6:30 p.m. MOTION: Made by Council Member Stegall, seconded by Council Member McArthur to (1) amend certain sections of Redding Municipal Code Chapter 2.04 to change the start time for regular council meetings to 6:00 p.m., to move closed session agenda items to after open session agenda is completed, and to codify other rules related to public comment to the City Council; (2) offer Ordinance No. 2440 for first reading, an ordinance ofthe City Council of the City of Redding, amending Redding Municipal Code 2.04 as stated above; (3) waive the full reading of the draft ordinance; and (4) instruct the City Attorney to read the full title only.
