Darlene Oaks et al
(G-030-0l0)
The hour of 7:00 P.M., having arrived, Vice Mayor Gard opened the

Planning Commission recommendation dated March l3, l986
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his memo-

Commission has recommended approval of a request by Darlene Oaks et
al, to amend the General Plan designation of six acres located at the
southwest corner of the intersection of Girvan Road and Pit Road from
"Residential, 3.0 units per acre" to "Residential, 6.0 units per
acre."
Mr. Perry stated that the Planning Commission and staff felt the
requested 6.0 unit per acre classification is appropriate given the
location of the property. He said it was not felt that approval of
the request will adversely affect nearby single-family residential
areas, given the separation created by Girvan Road and Pit Road and
the moderate density requested.

Council ratify the negative declaration and approve GPA-l5-85. It is
further recommended that staff be directed to prepare a resolution for
adoption at a later date.

PUBLIC HEARING - re Appeal by Mark Swanson of Tentative Subdivision
Map S-l4-85, Hacienda Heights
(S-l00-260)
Council Member Pugh abstained from voting and discussion on this
matter.
The hour of 7:00 P.M., having arrived, Vice Mayor Gard opened the
public hearing re appeal by Mark Swanson of Tentative Subdivision Map
S-l4-85, Hacienda Heights.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk:
Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing
Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
Planning Commission recommendation dated March l4, l986
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his memo-
randum to Council dated March l4, l986. He pointed out that Council
determined to reconsider the approved alignment for Shasta View Drive
north of Old Alturas, which was established as part of the approval
for Hacienda Heights Subdivision. Mr. Perry referred to maps depict-
ing the location of the approved route and the alternate route orig-
inally proposed by the developer, the land use, and General Plan for
the area.
Mr. Perry reviewed the history of the project and explained that the
basis for the rehearing by the City Council is the statement by
several property owners that they did not receive notice. He noted
that property owners who have changed their minds since the first
hearing are Blehm and Young. Mr. Perry pointed out that since the
January hearing, no new information has been presented except concern-
ing the Lema property. On the field trip by the City Council, Mr.
Lema clarified his reasons for opposing Alternate 3. Mr. Perry
outlined these reasons. He also reviewed the advantages and disadvan-
tages of Alternate l and Alternate 3.
Mr. Perry stated that from the perspective of developing a major
arterial that meets the areas circulation needs, both alternatives are
functional. He said the principal reasons the Planning Commission
approved the applicant's proposal (Alternate l) were (l) the right--
of-way is available and (2) the developer would provide a gravel road
access from Shasta View to Gibraltar which would significantly improve
access for Gibraltar Avenue residents. Mr. Perry said the City
Council must determine if these factors and the issues raised by Mr.
Lema support Alternate l or if the other issues raised by Gibraltar
Avenue residents merit retaining the alignment as approved by the
Council on January 20.
Fred Weatherill, 2538 Old Alturas Road, said the present alignment
passes along the west side of his property. He said they have tried
to reduce the impact of the road but no matter what the alignment, it
will always be on the west side of his property. Mr. Weatherill
pointed out that there are some great benefits to the road and every-
body has to give a little. He said by moving the road to the west, it
will not be possible to have the access road to Gibraltar. He empha-
sized that he would like to see Council approve an alignment which
will allow the developer to proceed with the Shasta View extension.
Bob Blehm, l020 Gibraltar, said he was opposed to Alternate l at
previous meetings; however, after meeting with the developers and
engineers and weighing all aspects, he has changed his views. He felt
that the best alignment for the future of the area is Alternate l.
Mr. Blehm said he checked the General Plan when he was considering
purchasing his property about four years ago and he knew Shasta View
would be there; however, it didn't define the exact location.
Dennis Farrell, ll50 Gibraltar, said he owns two parcels of land in
the area. He is opposed to Alternate l and felt the disadvantages
outweigh the advantages.
Don Anderson, l8l5 Yuba Street, Attorney representing the Lema's, said
his clients are the most impacted property owners by Alternate 3. He
emphasized that the Lema's have no present intention to develop their
property, and with Alternate 3, there is no way to assure them con-
tinued access to their property. Mr. Anderson pointed out that the
Lema property is a family ranch and Alternate 3 will take away a 300
by 2300 foot strip of grazing land. He pointed out that there is an
agreement between the developer and Mr. Lema for access rights for
Alternate l; however, if Alternate 3 is approved, there will be no
agreement. He also noted that, if the City assumes that the Lema
property will be subdivided, it should be paying subdivision prices
for access rights.
Mike Wells, 292 Hemsted, attorney representing the developers, said
his clients support Alternate l because it will benefit their subdivi-
sion, provide better access, and provide better utility services to
the area. He emphasized that if Mr. Lema will not provide right-of--
way for Alternate 3, it will be difficult for the developer to pro-
ceed. He said the end result of Alternate 3 will be a substantial
increase in cost to build the road and possibly a delay for a long
period of time. Mr. Wells noted that Alternate 3 may also require an
assessment district to pay for the road. He said by opting for
Alternate l, the City would have the opportunity to obtain a major
circulation arterial for the City and the people on Gibraltar would
have an access road.
Steve Mahowald, 870 Gibraltar, said he enjoys the beauty of the Lema
property, does not want to see the Mr. Lema lose his pasture land.
Debbie Peterson, 2520 Old Alturas Road, said she likes the quietness
of the area and is opposed to the road. She said it will increase
traffic and the speed and questioned why the road could not come from
College View to Sunridge Drive. Ms. Peterson felt that Council should
be concerned about the people who have homes in the area.
Mark Swanson, 732 Gibraltar, said they are building a home on
Gibraltar and hope to move in in about a month. He said the home they
are building is the home they have always wanted, in a country-like
and quiet location and now they are facing a four-lane highway right
behind their house. Mr. Swanson said they were told that the City
Council was their last resort to fight this road, and now it seems
like the rules are being changed on them. He emphasized that accord-
ing the General Plan, Shasta View was proposed to be about 600 feet
from their property. He felt that everybody should have been notified
of the decision to rehear the matter. Mr. Swanson did not feel that
anything has changed since the January hearing that should change the
decision to use Alternate 3. He felt that Alternate 2 would give good
access and would make everybody happy except Mr. Lema, who would get
half of the strip of land back. Mr. Swanson felt that, on the basis
of what we have heard, there is no reason to choose Alternate l over
Alternate 3. He said they realize progress is inevitable but it
shouldn't totally alter the character of the neighborhood.
Bill Maus, 987 Gibraltar, said the land owners that are most affected
that will give their land all want this road. He said over 2/3 of the
land owners on the east want Alternate l. He felt it would be in the
City's best interest to have Alternate l and said he would be willing
to give access on his property to have access to a paved road.
Chris Stevenson, 2704 Some Place, real estate agent representing
Preston and Sablone, said her clients are not making any money on this
proposal but they are hoping that whoever they sell to will benefit.
She said there is an 80-acre parcel for sale that will be developed
shortly and Alternate l is the best route to provide access to the
property. She said Alternate 3 will split their property in half and
would be very costly to the people in the area.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Fulton, seconded by Council Member
Demsher that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
with Council Member Pugh abstaining
In response to an inquiry from Council Member Demsher, Mr. Perry
advised that Alternate 2 is half way between Alternate l and 3 and
would require the cooperation of Mr. Lema for right-of-way. It would
also create some shallow lots.
Council Member Fulton commented that if Alternate l is not approved,
it may preclude the Shasta View extension from being constructed.
Mr. Perry advised that if Alternate 3 is approved, Mr. Lema would have
to develop his property or the City would have to use eminent domain
proceedings to acquire right-of-way, at the expense of the developer.
Vice Mayor Gard clarified that the reason for the rehearing is that
apparently notices were not received by some property owners, and not
the fact that someone was displeased with the decision. She added
that the greatest impact is on the Lemas since they have no intention
to develop their property. Ms. Gard felt that if people take the time
to check the General Plan to see where development will be occurring,
they should be able to have some faith in that information.
Council Member Fulton said now that Council has had a field trip to
the area, he feels the access to Shasta View from Gibraltar is very
desirable.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Fulton that Alternate l for the
alignment of Shasta View Drive, be approved.
This motion died for lack of a second.
Council Member Demsher stated that after the field trip, he recognized
that the hardship of the proposal approved at the previous hearing is
clearly on the Lemas; however, he does not believe that the Lema
property will remain undeveloped for any length of time. He said his
feeling at the last hearing was that Alternate 3 is not good for the
developers and at best a compromise, but was a reasonable decision.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Demsher, seconded by Council Member
Gard that the appeal by Mark Swanson be upheld and that Alternate 3
for the extension of Shasta View Drive, be approved as recommended.

RECOMMENDATION RE PARK MARINA DRIVE AREA
(C-070-0l0-095)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his memo-
randum to Council dated March l3, l986, which is incorporated herein
by reference. He stated that the joint meeting on March l0, of the
Recreation and Parks Commission, Planning Commission, and City Council
provided a reference point for all three bodies to discuss possible
City ownership along Park Marina Drive.
It is the recommendation of staff that the Parks and Recreation
Commission and the Planning Commission be asked to make a recommenda-
tion. He stated that acquisition would occur as owners are willing to
sell. He added that this would also give a consultant a better idea
of the public's interest in developing a plan if a budget is approved
for a specific plan.
Council Members discussed the various options and determined that the
matter should be referred back to the Commissions for a report and
recommendation.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Pugh, seconded by Council Member
Fulton that the subject of acquisition of property in the Park Marina
Drive area be referred to the Parks and Recreation Commission and the
Planning Commission for report and recommendation by May 5, l986; and,
that the report consider the use, acquisition, preservation, and
development of the property, including specific areas. The Vote:
Unanimous Ayes

Council Member Pugh abstained from voting and discussion on this

James Lee, Chair of the Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed the
Commission's recommendation dated February 27, l986. He stated that
the Commission recommends that the City acquire the Lake Redding Golf
Course property from the Benton Trust, that the property remain a golf
course for as long as possible, and that the City refrain from enter-
