PUBLIC HEARING - re General Plan Amendment Application GPA-7-88,
by Charles Jewell (455 Beagle Lane)
(G-030-010)
9/20/88
The hour of 7:00 P.M., having arrived, Mayor Johannessen opened the public hearing re GPA-7-88. 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 September 15, 1988
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that
the Planning Commission recommended to amend the General Plan
from "Residential, 6.0 units per acre" to "Retail/Commercial."
The recommendation was subject to the two parcels being merged.
Mr. Perry explained that Mr. Jewell wishes to expand his retail
outlet. It is the recommendation of staff that the application
be approved.
Robert Currie, 2775 Teal Court, stated that he owns property
located on Beagle Lane. Mr. Currie objected to the general plan
amendment and noted that when the Planning Commission approved
the original project, he was assured that the intersection would
be improved. Mr. Currie indicated that traffic conditions have
become worse and it is a dangerous situation. Mr. Currie stated
that the area should remain residential. He opined that even if
there is no access from the parking lot onto Beagle Lane,
employees and customers will park there, and there is no
assurance that Beagle Lane will not be affected by additional
traffic.
Council Member Buffum questioned if Beagle Lane will be developed
to City standards.
Mr. Perry stated that Beagle Lane right-of-way is 20 feet, and
there is not enough room for a conventional street without
relocating signs and power poles. He reiterated that the store
will not have access onto Beagle Lane. Mr. Perry noted that Mr.
Jewell dedicated ten feet adjacent to his project to widen Beagle
Lane and constructed corner rounding, street, and sewer
improvements.
Charles Jewell, 16710 Hawthorn, explained that the retail outlet
has ample parking, and there is no reason to use Beagle Lane for
parking. Mr. Jewell noted that the size of the lot where he
would like to expand his outlet is small and could probably not
be developed for any other purpose.

Planning Commission recommendation dated September 15, 1988
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that
the Planning Commission approved a tentative map for a 17-lot,
single-family subdivision. The developers then requested
amendment of the condition pertaining to fencing restrictions in
open-space easement areas to allow fencing around the perimeter
of the project and on all side lot lines. Mr. Perry conveyed
that the Commission amended the condition to allow perimeter
fencing along Highway 299 and the future shopping center to the
west. The developers subsequently appealed the Commission's
decision. It is the opinion of staff that the action of the
Commission strikes a reasonable balance and, therefore, recommend
that the appeal be denied.
Dennis Mihalka, 164359 Plateau Circle, noted that the Planning
Commission was concerned about fire service access. Mr. Mihalka
stated that Assistant Fire Chief Hiebert has been contacted, and
the developers would like additional time to work with the City
on this matter. He conveyed that Whitson Engineering is
redrawing the tentative map and Stoney Ridge Partners would like
the public hearing continued until the next Council meeting and
at which time additional information will be presented.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Carter, seconded by Council
Member Fulton, that the public hearing re the Appeal of
Conditions of Approval for Tentative Subdivision Map S-6-88 be
continued until 7:00 p.m., October 4, 1988. The Vote: Unanimous

(L-010-210-510)
Alan Hill, developer of the Shasta Hill Estates, conveyed his
appreciation for the opportunity to make this presentation to
Council on behalf of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD). Mr. Hill stated that HUD has designated
Redding as an official participant in HUD's Joint Venture for
Affordable Housing, and it is an award that the City can be very

nation so designated, and it is looked at as a true joint venture
by the private sector, City, and Federal Government to provide
affordable housing.
Mr. Hill noted that the two officials from HUD who were present
at the opening of Shasta Hills Estates were very complimentary in regard to the development of Shasta Hills. He conveyed that Mr. Nishimura, the Regional Administrator for HUD, also expressed his
thanks to the City of Redding and all the people involved. Mr. Hill presented commemorative plaques to Council. RESOLUTION - Chris A. Smith Ground Lease at Redding Municipal

FEDERAL DEPOSITORY
(L-050)
City Manager Christofferson recalled that, due to the closure of
the Library on June 30, 1988, the U.S. Government notified the
Shasta County Library on July 1, 1988, that the Federal
Depository would be withdrawn. The Library was able to retain
the depository through September 14, 1988, in order to evaluate
the results of the City's special election on library services.
He conveyed that on September 14, after the defeat of Measure L,
he contacted the State Librarian, Gary Strong, in an attempt to
retain the federal depository. Mr. Christofferson conveyed that,
in accordance with Federal regulations, the Library will be able
to hold the depository until December 31, 1988.
Mr. Christofferson expressed hope that if all the federal
material could be assembled in one location and made accessible
to the public, perhaps the depository could be placed in a
retention mode until overall library service can be restored. He
requested authority from Council to continue working on this
matter in concert with Shasta County.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member
Carter, authorizing the City Manager to continue to work on
retaining the Federal Depository and report back to Council with
the results. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes

ABANDONMENT APPLICATION A-8-88 - Request by Dennis McMaines
(A-010-100)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that
the Planning Commission recommended denial of Dennis McMaines'
request to abandon an open-space easement on property located at
1210, 1220, 1230, and 1240 Bradley Drive and 4054 Ormsby Way.
The abandonment was opposed by two area residents who objected to
loss of views and the impact on property values. It is the
recommendation of staff that Council determine not to consider
the request.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member
Carter, to not consider Abandonment Application A-8-88, by Dennis
McMaines. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
ORDINANCE - Rezoning Application RZ-2-88, by Western General
Engineering (East end of Starlight Boulevard and south end of
Summit Drive)
(L-010-230)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry recalled that
Council approved RZ-2-88 for "R-1" Single Family Residential
District in concept on May 17, 1988. The final map for Starlight
Subdivision, S-4-88, has been recorded, and it is the
recommendation of staff that the ordinance be offered for first
reading.
Council Member Dahl offered Ordinance No. 1863 for first reading,
an ordinance of the City Council of the City of Redding amending
Section 18.06.020 of the Redding Municipal Code relating to the
rezoning of certain real property in the City of Redding
(RZ-2-88).
ELECTRONIC READER BOARDS
(C-110-100)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry recalled that
the Planning Commission unanimously recommended that Council
adopt an ordinance prohibiting electronic reader boards; and in
response, Council adopted an emergency ordinance establishing a
ban on electric reader boards. Mr. Perry stated that staff then
conducted a sign survey and contacted many organizations and 89
cities. Of the cities contacted, 65 cities responded; and the
results are attached to the Report to Council dated September 15,
1988. It is the recommendation of the Planning Director to ban
electric reader boards.
Council Member Fulton stated that the reader board ordinance
should be reviewed. He noted that Council has already authorized
one such sign, and it is not fair for others to now be denied
this method of advertising. Council Member Fulton opined that a
changing sign is more interesting than a fixed sign, they are not
eyesores, and it should be possible to control the content of the
sign.
Council Member Dahl stated that making one mistake does not
obligate Council to make another. He conveyed that the majority
of people he has with spoken with do not want reader boards.
Council Member Carter concurred with Council Member Dahl.
However, he noted that he would consider approving reader boards
with restrictions such as limiting height to eight feet, no
blinking lights, and limiting the areas in town where allowed.
9/20/88
City Attorney Hays stated that banning reader boards will become difficult if any more are allowed. He pointed out that Council is currently in a good legal position because there is now only one reader board. Council Member Fulton questioned if the majority of people really
do not want reader boards. He said the Planning Commission did not make a mistake when they approved the electronic reader
board. Council Member Fulton pointed out that electronic reader
boards are becoming the trend and even the Federal Government
recently signed a bill allowing reader board signs along the
highway.
Council Member Buffum conveyed that she favors the formation of a
citizens committee to review the issues. She stated that the
Planning Commission believed they got a sign they did not
approve.
Mayor Johannessen indicated his preference for less signs, rather
than more. He agreed that the technology is fascinating, but
warned that we are seeing but a portion of what is to come.
Mayor Johannessen noted that the most attractive cities are those
that are less gaudy.
Council Member Dahl stated that he does not agree with allowing
reader boards; however, formation of a citizen's committee to
evaluate the issues would be appropriate.
With the concurrence of Council, Mayor Johannessen referred the
formation of a citizen's committee to determine community
sentiment about electric reader boards to the Planning Director.
Council Member Buffum stated that the committee should be
advisory in nature, Council should not vacate its
responsibilities. Council concurred.
DOWNTOWN MALL COMMON AREA STRUCTURES
(M-010-200)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry stated that the
Downtown Mall Merchant's Association requested permission to
remove the viewing structures and play platforms in the Downtown
Mall. The Merchants propose to do the work and have asked to
retain the wood that is removed. The Merchants have also asked
that a place be provided to construct a kiosk-type structure for
the Merchant's Association. It is the recommendation of staff
that Council approve the request in concept and refer the matter
to the Redevelopment Agency for processing under the terms of the
Redevelopment Plan, the deed restrictions, and conditions
outlined in the Report to Council dated September 14, 1988.
Staff also recommends that the work proceed in stages and that
initial approval be limited to the play structures only.
Chuck Zinc, 800 August Way, stated that the platforms serve no
purpose and block the view through the Mall. Mr. Zinc noted that
the intent is to continue to improve the Mall area. In response
to Council's questions, Mr. Zinc explained that the artwork
located on the supporting beams would remain, only the platforms
will be removed; and artwork placed on the risers will be saved
and turned over to the City.
Mayor Johannessen suggested that an inventory of the artwork be
taken.
9/20/88
Council Member Fulton questioned if the Downtown Mall has a
master plan. Mr. Perry indicated that there is no master remodeling plan, and it would take considerable effort to get the tenants together to do that. It would be necessary to hire an architect and it would be costly. Council Member Buffum emphasized that it is not wise to start chipping away at things without knowing where one is going. She
concurred with the recommendation to remove the two play
structures; however, she noted that the upper platforms were used
by patrons of the Hof Brau, and it is likely that they could be
used and enjoyed again.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Buffum, seconded by Council
Member Dahl, concurring with the removal of the play structures
only, and referring the matter to the Redevelopment Agency for
processing. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
MURALS
(C-110-100)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry recalled that
Council referred the issues surrounding murals to the Planning
Commission. The Planning Commission recommended that the Sign
Code relating to murals be amended as follows: maximum of one
mural per wall; one acknowledgement of mural donors not to exceed
two square feet; the use permit issued for a mural shall not be
valid for more than ten years; and a maximum of one mural per
building. It is the recommendation of staff to authorize
preparation of an amending ordinance implementing the
Commission's recommendations.
Council Member Buffum stated that the use permit should not be
valid for ten years. She pointed out that because of Redding's
climate, murals may have to be repainted in three to five years;
thus, the use permit should only be valid for five years.
Mr. Perry noted that the Planning Commission took into account
the fact that a mural is a great investment.
Council Member Buffum emphasized that murals should only be an
interim measure; the downtown area building should be revitalized
and architecture improved.
Council Member Carter suggested a compromise to allow a valid use
permit for seven years. Council concurred with this suggestion.
Council Member Buffum also recommended that lettering for sponsor
acknowledgment be standardized and not exceed two square feet,
even for multiple donors.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member
Buffum, authorizing staff to prepare an amending ordinance for
murals to include the following: maximum of one mural per wall;
acknowledgement of one or multiple sponsors not to exceed two
square feet; any use permit issued for a mural shall not be valid
for more than seven years; and a maximum of one mural per
building. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
CONSULTANT SERVICES FOR PLAN CHECK
* (B-130-070 & A-050-230-030)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that
building activity in the City has increased beyond expectation
this year. Mr. Perry also noted that recruitment for the
position of Plan Checker resulted in no applications being filed
so the position must be readvertised utilizing a larger area. It
is the recommendation of staff that a $50,000 budget
appropriation be adopted to provide plan check services.
9/20/88
MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member
Buffum, that Resolution No. 88-348 be adopted, a resolution of
the City Council of the City of Redding approving and adopting the 16th amendment to the City Budget Resolution No. 88-235
appropriating $50,000 for Building Department Professional
Services. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Buffum, Carter, Dahl, Fulton, and
Johannessen
Noes: Council Members - None
Absent: Council Members - None
Resolution No. 88-348 is on file in the office of the City Clerk.
NONPROFIT PARK LEASE CRITERIA
(C-110-100)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that
staff developed estimated costs to establish a lease rate and is
finalizing a draft lease for United Way's lease of property in
the nonprofit park. Mr. Perry stated that the lease is based on
a fair-market rental payment for the land and an appraisal has
been ordered to establish that value. He noted that United Way
has asked for a firm lease proposal, and it is the recommendation
of staff that Council authorize forwarding to United Way a letter
explaining the basis for establishment of a lease.
Jack Gallop, representing United Way, stated that United Way is
very appreciative that the proposal has come this far; however,
the United Way Board is deeply concerned about the need to
establish a lease cost. Mr. Gallop stated that an annual lease
rate at 10% of the fair market value is excessive. He explained
that United Way would be paying approximately $12,000 to $15,000
per year and will find it difficult to make that payment. Noting
that United Way is also required to pay possessory interest
taxes, Mr. Gallop asked if United Way could be exempted from this
tax.
City Attorney Hays stated that the Shasta County Assessor's
Office collects the possessory interest tax and those that lease
City land are responsible for that tax. Mr. Hays suggested that
United Way discuss a determination for exemption from the
possessory tax with the Assessor. Mr. Perry explained that if
the possessory tax clause is not included in the lease, Council
has the exposure.
Mayor Johannessen stated that a lease based on 10% of the fair
market value is fairly standard.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member
Buffum, authorizing the forwarding the letter to United Way
conveying the basis for establishment of a lease. The Vote:
Unanimous Ayes
ANNEXATION 88-4 - Viking Way
(A-150-203)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that
City Departments, the Board of Administrative Review, and the
Planning Commission reviewed Annexation Request 88-4, Viking Way.
It is the recommendation of staff that the annexation request be
approved and annexation proceedings be commenced.
9/20/88
MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Buffum, that Council make the following findings re Annexation 88-4:
l. Project is compatible with the Redding General Plan. 2. Project will not significantly alter existing land
form. 3. Project is compatible with surrounding land use. 4. Project is compatible with the Code of the City of
Redding, California.
and, ratify the Negative Declaration authorized by the Board of
Administrative Review on August 17, 1988. The Vote: Unanimous
Ayes

City of Redding requesting the Local Agency Formation Commission

Annexation No. 88-4 (Viking Way); and request that LAFCO waive

ANNEXATION 88-5 - Country Oaks
(A-150-204)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry stated that a
letter was received from Robert Thompson asking Council to
reconsider the requirements for annexation of the Country Oaks
subdivision. Mr. Thompson's letter indicated there was support
for annexation if the preconditions for annexation were lifted.
Mr. Perry explained that a petition requesting annexation was
received in 1980 and Council indicated at that time it was
willing to annex the area subject to conditions which included
the formation of an assessment district to acquire electric
facilities, installation of sidewalks and street lights, street
improvements, and storm drain improvements.
It is the recommendation of staff to maintain current policy and
accept the area as it is and the City will maintain it and
provide service at that level. If the area wishes a higher level
of service, than an assessment district would have to be formed.
Mr. Perry explained that this will enable the area to annex
without creating a financial hardship and without transferring
the financial obligation to the City, except for acquisition of
electrical facilities.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Buffum, seconded by Council
Member Dahl, adopting the recommendation of staff to accept the
area as it is and maintain and provide service at that level; and
send a letter to Bob Thompson stating same. The Vote: Unanimous
Ayes
RESOLUTION - Award of Contract for Classification and

of Redding salaries and benefits to other cities and the private
sector.

ORDINANCE - Deleting Sections of the Redding Municipal Code
Pertaining to Taxi Cab Stand and Pawnbrokers
* (T-100-400 & C-110-100)
City Manager Christofferson reported that taxi stands are
outdated, seldom used by taxis, and not wanted by most
businesses. It is the recommendation of the Chief of Police that
the sections pertaining to the establishment and location, use
required, fee required, and building occupant consent for taxi
stands be deleted from the Redding Municipal Code. It is also
recommended that the section pertaining to licensing fees for
pawnbrokers be deleted as Ordinance No. 1839 repealed Chapter
