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 June 2, 1988
6/7/88
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that the four related applications by FHK Investment pertains to the development of approximately 20.44 acres. General Plan Amendment GPA-11-87 is a request to reclassify 13.32 acres from
"Residential, 3.5 and 9.0 units per acre" to "Retail Commercial." Rezoning Application RZ-16-87 is a request to rezone the entire
site to "C2-B15-F" Retail District; Use Permit Application
UP-126-87 is a request to construct a 191,250-square-foot
shopping center; and Lot Split Application LS-35-88 is a request
to merge six parcels and resubdivide the property into seven
parcels.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the General Plan
Amendment, subject to an agreement being entered into which
covers the mitigations to be done and what happens if the project
does not proceed, and also recommended approval of the rezoning
request. The Commission forwarded UP-126-87 and LS-35-88 to
Council with a recommendation for approval subject to Draft
Conditions of Approval.
Mr. Perry noted that the FHK has amended their application to
incorporate mitigation measures, and amended their site plan to
avoid encroachment into the wetlands area. Mr. Perry explained
that the wetland's issue is unresolved at this time, pending a
decision by the Army Corps of Engineers. This issue affects
whether Lake Boulevard can be widened, if the private property
can be more fully utilized, and storm water storage capacity.
Mr. Perry conveyed that Caltrans has asked the developer to widen
Lake Boulevard and provide traffic signal coordination, and
Shasta County has requested funds to realign Hilltop Drive to the
east and install a signal at that location. It is the
recommendation of staff that UP-126-87 and LS-35-88 be approved
subject to approval of the General Plan Amendment and Rezoning
Application. Staff also recommends that FHK not be required to
participate in traffic coordination, nor in the realignment of
Hilltop Drive.
Fred Katz, 3435 American River Drive, Sacramento, representing
FHK Investors stated that they have options on seven parcels and
acquisition is based on approval of the rezoning. Mr. Katz noted
that Shopko, a major anchor at the proposed shopping center is
concerned with the signage. He stated that Condition No. 3 in
the Conditions of Approval for UP-126-87, limits the amount of
signage facing Lake Boulevard to 1750 square feet, and Shopko is
requesting the flexibility to show the aggregate 2458 square feet
allowed on any one of the buildings sides.
Mr. Katz added that with regard to Condition Nos. 1c and 1d,
Shopko requests that the area provided for seasonal outdoor sales
be increased by an additional 5000 square feet. Mr. Perry stated
that approval is recommended as long as adequate parking is
provided. He added that the Planning Commission felt that the
signage criteria was adequate.
Mr. Katz stated that Condition No. 3e, no sign shall be closer
than five feet to the property line, hinders the property line.
With regard to Condition No. 6e, FHK is requesting reimbursement
for the purchase of right-of-way to extend North Point Drive to
Redwood Boulevard. He explained that outright purchase of the
property would avoid eminent domain proceedings, and FHK is not
asking the City to exercise its power of eminent domain. Mr.
Perry stated that the recommendation is to not reimburse the
developer for acquisition of right-of-way.
Mr. Katz stated that with regard to Condition No. 23, Shopko
anticipates using an area for nursery products and requests
permission to construct a cyclone, rather than a masonry or
decorative block-post fence, adjacent to the area.
6/7/88
With regard to Condition No. 29, landscaping improvements, Shopko is requesting that a three-foot sidewalk be constructed along the
east side of the building to allow employees easier access to the front of the building from the employee parking lot. Mr. Katz
also stated that the freestanding pads have not been spoken for, and FHK anticipates leaving those areas clear or sodded for the time being. Mr. Perry stated that that is understood.
Jerry Drennan, 1657 Riverside Drive, representing Caltrans,
stated that Caltrans is not requesting traffic signal
coordination or widening of Lake Boulevard, they are requiring
those conditions. Mr. Drennan stated that when a developer
affects part of the State Highway system, costs are born by the
developer or some other agency other than Caltrans. Caltrans is
also requiring that the developer, or the City, provide a share
of the costs for the proposed signal at Redwood and SR 273. Mr.
Drennan added that if those requirements are not met, Caltrans
will request an Environmental Impact Report. He noted that
traffic is currently at or near capacity.
Mr. Perry explained that Caltrans wants two additional lanes on
Lake Boulevard, and City staff is recommending that the developer
fund one lane and purchase right-of-way to extend Northpoint.
Mr. Perry relayed that the City has asked for a contribution of
$30,000 towards signal construction at the intersection of
Redwood Boulevard and SR 273, and the County will, hopefully, ask
potential developers on the northeast side of SR 273 to
contribute funds. Mr. Perry noted that the Draft Conditions of
Approval already require the developer to fund completion of a
traffic signal at the intersection of Lake Boulevard and Masonic
in excess of $100,000, and install a traffic signal at Lake
Boulevard and Northpoint Drive. He added that Caltrans' requests
places a large burden upon the developer.
Mr. Katz stated that FHK does not object to widening Lake
Boulevard with two lanes or relocating the pond; the problem is
one of timing. Mr. Katz explained that they are working with six
property owners and they have not been able to receive a decision
by the Army Corp of Engineers on the wetlands issue.

Columbia Plan pending consideration by the Shasta County Board of Supervisors, specifically in regard to the classification of 30
acres east of Abernathy Lane. Mr. Perry reported that the Board of Supervisors adopted the Columbia Plan and designated the 30 acres located east of Abernathy Lane and north of Viking Way as "Industrial." This action results in a 660 foot wide peninsula
of industrial sandwiched between two areas of single-family
residential.
The Airport Land Use Commission reviewed the Columbia Plan with
respect to the Enterprise Skypark and concluded that, at this
time, the resources to prepare an Airport Plan for the Skypark
were not available. It is staff's recommendation that the
timetable for Skypark improvements be amended to allow an
additional year for completion of the first, third, and fourth
items as delineated in Exhibit "D" of the Columbia Area Plan.
It is the recommendation of staff that the Columbia Area Plan be
referred back to the Planning Commission for reconsideration.
