Mr. Christofferson noted that the parade route includes a portion of the state highway, and the State Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is requiring a $1 million certificate of insurance prior to issuing the permit. This represents a cost the Veteran's Council cannot absorb. He explained that this cost could be eliminated if the City were to co-sponsor the parade and request the permit from Caltrans. Mr. Christofferson noted that he has conferred with City Attorney Hays and Risk Manager Kirkpatrick. There are valid concerns regarding potential liability and setting a precedent; however, he stated that this is an organization and event worthy of Council's support. Council Member Johannessen stated that the Veteran's Council is a unique organization, and the Veteran's Parade is something of a City function, as well. Noting that the City will have exposure either way, he suggested that the City co-sponsor the event. Council Member Dahl concurred with Council Member Johannessen and pointed out that if the City does not help, there will not be a Veteran's Day parade. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Johannessen, authorizing staff to file the necessary permit 382 9/5/89 application with Caltrans as a City co-sponsor of the Veteran's Day Parade.

MOTION: Made by Council Member Fulton, seconded by Council Member Dahl, to accept the resignation of Tom Osgood from the Redding Redevelopment Agency with deep regret. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Noting that Council is concerned about commissioners resigning because of the laws regarding redevelopment project areas, Council Member Dahl suggested that a letter from the Mayor be directed to the appropriate commissioners and redevelopment agency members clarifying the issues. Council concurred.

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 August 30, 1989 Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that the Planning Commission approved prezoning property located at the intersection of Clear Creek Road and Westside Road to "U" Unclassified District. The rezoning is being processed in conjunction with Annexation 89-10. Mayor Carter determined that there were no comments from the floor. MOTION: Made by Council Member Johannessen, seconded by Council Member Dahl, that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes MOTION: Made by Council Member Buffum, seconded by Council Member Dahl, that Council make the following findings re RZ-10-89: 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 July 12, 1989. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Council Member Buffum offered Ordinance No. 1905 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 prezoning of certain real property adjacent to the City of Redding (RZ-10-89). 383 9/5/89 PUBLIC HEARING - re Rezoning Application RZ-11-89, by City of Redding (Both sides of Airstrip Road north of Highway 44) (L-010-230) The hour of 7:00 P.M., having arrived, Mayor Carter opened the public hearing regarding RZ-11-89. 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 August 30, 1989 Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that the Planning Commission recommended prezoning homes, businesses, and the Enterprise Sky Park on property located on both sides of Airstrip Road to "U-F" Unclassified District with site-plan-review criteria. Mr. Perry stated that this will establish zoning consistent with the Columbia Area Specific Plan, the existing use pattern, and the unknown future of the Sky Park facility. Roger Mills, 2026 Airstrip Road, stated that he supports the Unclassified designation because it protects the Enterprise Skypark. Mr. Mills conveyed that he can support either the "C-6" or "U-F" zoning. He noted that one of the issues is if the residents are protected. Mr. Perry stated that staff considered a residential zoning. He also noted that C-6 zoning would preclude a residential district. Tom Cross, 2360 Airstrip Road, noted that half of the airport was already zoned "U" Unclassified. Mr. Perry indicated that the south end of the airport is zoned "U" Unclassified without site plan review criteria. He explained that the south side of the airport has more mixed uses. Mr. Perry added that north of the runway is a clear zone, and east and west of the clear zone is a subdivision. He indicated that staff took a harder look at the zoning this time. Dick Osier, 2223 Airstrip Road, stated that he supports the "U-F" Unclassified designation. Doug Balfour, 9952 Oriole Lane, noted that the "U-F" classification requires a use permit. Mr. Balfour asked if a commercial business can be placed there. Mr. Perry replied yes. Mr. Mills asked if the the northern end of the airport parcel can be rezoned from "U" Unclassified to "U-F" Unclassified. He said the rationale is that construction is more likely to occur on the northern end, not the southern end. Mr. Mills explained that there are eight lots with development potential on the north end. Mr. Perry indicated that Mr. Mills could apply for a rezoning application. MOTION: Made by Council Member Johannessen, seconded by Council Member Dahl, that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Fulton, that Council make the following findings re RZ-11-89: l. Project is compatible with the Redding General Plan. 384 9/5/89 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 July 12, 1989. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Council Member Dahl offered Ordinance No. 1906 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 prezoning of certain real property adjacent to the City of Redding (RZ-11-89). PUBLIC HEARING - re General Plan Amendment Application GPA-8-89, and Rezoning Application RZ-12-89, by C. D. Nelson (3500 and 3555 Santa Rosa Way) * (G-030-010 & L-010-230) The hour of 7:00 P.M., having arrived, Mayor Carter opened the public hearing regarding GPA-8-89 and RZ-12-89. 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 August 30, 1989 City Clerk Nichols stated that a petition opposing the request to reclassify property was received from property owners in the Lake Forest Subdivision. Mr. Perry apologized on behalf of staff because the mailing list for the public hearing notice was not expanded from 300 to 500 feet. Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that the Planning Commission recommended reclassifying two parcels consisting of approximately 2.35 acres from "Residential, 3.5 units per acre" to "Retail" and approximately 0.9 acres from "U" Unclassified to "C-1-F" Neighborhood Commercial District. Mr. Perry noted that many of the residents in the Lake Forest Estates Subdivision are concerned about the increase in traffic, noise, and light. He explained that the Commission felt the reclassification was appropriate in light of the existing zoning to the north, south, and east. Council Member Fulton said he is concerned about the small amount of property on the northern parcel that actually fronts Lake Boulevard. He noted that most of the property fronts Santa Rosa Way. Mr. Perry stated that single-family lots could be created on the north parcel, but one of the lots would front Lake Boulevard. He noted that the Planning Commission received testimony from residents that higher density mobile homes would not be appropriate. Harold Flanigan, 3650 Lake Forest Drive, stated that he represents 56 residents in the Lake Forest area, which represents approximately 30 homes. He conveyed that these residents want the area to remain residential. They do not want commercial uses in that area. In response to Council Member Fulton's question, Mr. Perry explained that the north parcel is zoned "U" Unclassified and the general plan is designated residential. The south parcel is zoned commercial. 385 9/5/89 In response to Council Member Dahl's question, Mr. Perry stated that Lake Boulevard is essentially strip commercial except for one block of multiple family residential. Mayor Carter asked what is located south of the southern parcel. Mr. Perry indicated that there is one house and vacant land. He added that the recommended zoning on the south parcel requires site plan review. Council Member Johannessen pointed out that it will be difficult to protect and screen the residences adjacent to the north parcel from commercial uses. Mr. Perry said that, ideally, the lot line will be adjusted with the adjoining north parcel. Council Member Johannessen asked if zoning for multiple-family single story homes could be designated. Mr. Perry responded that the zoning could be designated R-3 or R-4 with site plan review criteria for single-story dwellings. Council Member Buffum noted that office use would be a good compromise. Council Member Dahl explained that Council wants to protect the rights of the property owner, as well as the rights of the neighborhood. Jerry Jones, 1091 Goodview Way, stated that M & M Construction and Dr. Nelson informed him that the area would be single-family homes. Mr. Jones indicated that he would not have bought a home in Lake Forest Estates if he knew apartment buildings would be constructed there. He noted that the only access to the north parcel is on Santa Rosa Way. Council Member Johannessen asked Mr. Jones what he would choose if he had a choice between office and residential zoning with single-story duplexes. Mr. Jones chose office and stated that the area should be zoned for residential single-families. Stanley Herreid, 3568 Lake Forest Drive, stated that Dr. Nelson has held a permit for 12 duplexes on the north side of the subdivision for three years, and he is just starting to develop them. He noted that, excluding the duplexes, there are 125 dwellings with only two exits from the subdivision, Santa Rosa Way and St. Nicholas Avenue, and both exit to Lake Boulevard. Mr. Herreid indicated that the traffic situation is very bad on Lake Boulevard and this zoning will only add to the problem. Keith Myers, Lake Forest Drive, stated that he bought his house with the understanding that there would only be single-family homes in the area. He recommended that the area be zoned for six single-family residences. He added that if it is Council's intent to allow commercial, a pedestrian light should be place at Santa Rosa, and Dr. Nelson should pay for the light, not the taxpayers. Daniel Story, 3615 Santa Rosa Way, stated that the area was zoned residential and should remain that way. He opined that building duplexes will lower property values. Dr. C. D. Nelson stated that the south parcel has been zoned commercial since the subdivision began. He expressed regret that anyone who purchased a lot was informed that anything but a commercial use was planned. He said he was surprised that the general plan had not been changed when the area was zoned commercial. Dr. Nelson indicated that it was always his intent to zone the north parcel commercial, and he did not try to withhold that information from anyone. He added that he still owns lots in the subdivision and he 386 9/5/89 does not believe that property values will drop. He explained that an appropriate type of commercial use, such as a beauty shop or gift shop, will enhance, not detract, from the subdivision. Dr. Nelson explained that there is a third access out of the subdivision from Magnums Way. Dr. Nelson reiterated that there is retail all the way out to Buckeye School. He conveyed that he is willing to create two more single-family residences on the north parcel and have the remainder of the parcel designated office. As for the south parcel, he stated that the property is already zoned commercial. Council Member Dahl stated that residents have legitimate complaints regarding the traffic impacts. He asked if traffic was discussed at the Planning Commission meeting. Mr. Perry responded that traffic was not looked at in great detail; that is for major developments. Council Member Dahl asked what would the traffic impact of office be compared to commercial. Mr. Perry stated that it would depend on the type of commercial, but office use would be approximately one-fourth of commercial. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Johannessen, that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Council Member Buffum asked how long the south parcel has been zoned commercial. Mr. Perry responded seven years. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Buffum, to refer General Plan Amendment Application GPA-8-89 and Rezoning Application RZ-12-89, by C.D. Nelson, back to the Planning Commission, to amend the zoning on property located at 3500 Santa Rosa Way to two single-family homes and office. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes PUBLIC HEARING - re Appeal of Lot Split Application LS-34-89, by Norman Levenson (Both sides of Oasis Road east of Twin View Boulevard) (L-010-150) The hour of 7:00 P.M., having arrived, Mayor Carter opened the public hearing regarding the appeal of Lot Split Application LS-34-89. 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 August 31, 1989 Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that the Planning Commission reviewed the Lot Split Application and recommended that the matter be continued. The Commission's position was based on the belief that this application and one to the south of Mr. Levenson's property should not be approved without the formation of a benefit district to pay for street improvements. Mr. Levenson's representative did not concur with the continuation request; therefore, the Commission denied the tentative map, and Mr. Levenson subsequently appealed. Mr. Perry conveyed that related issues pertain to traffic, channel modifications, road alignment, and improvements. It is the recommendation of staff that the appeal be denied. Virgil Weld, Weld Brower and Associates, stated that the Planning Commission is overreacting. He noted that the property was recently rezoned and development is subject to a use permit. He requested that the lot split be approved and staff put together the costs, etc. 387 9/5/89 In response to Council Member Buffum's question, Mr. Weld stated that Mr. Levenson is opposed to formation of a benefit district for street improvements and opposed to an assessment district for the extension of a water line. Regarding the road alignment, Mr. Weld stated that the alignment should follow the topography. Mayor Carter asked if the individual lots could be included in a benefit district if the lot split application is approved. Mr. Perry indicated that individual lots could be included in a district, but the issue would not be dealt with in a comprehensive manner. He explained that needs should be identified and improvements apportioned now rather than deferring the issue until specific use- permit applications are received. Mr. Perry conveyed that the Commission felt they did not have enough information before them and there were other issues to consider such as adequate water lines and disputes between property owners. In response to Council Member Buffum's question, Mr. Perry suggested that the lot split application be continued until a benefit district is put together. Council Member Dahl noted that the Commission is looking very closely at major developments. Eihnard Diaz, Sharrah, Dunlap, and Associates, representing Colbert Thomason, Chuck Rhoades and Gold Hills Development, reviewed the issues regarding realignment of the road and improvements. He pointed out that the entire area should be master planned. He conveyed that Mr. Thomason and Mr. Rhoades are willing to work with Mr. Levenson. Mr. Diaz questioned if an assessment district is the appropriate way to bring in water lines. He suggested that the parcel map be continued until a master plan is developed. Mr. Weld stated that Mr. Levenson has already master planned his property and road requirements have been identified. Council Member Buffum expressed concern about traffic impacting the area beyond what has been identified and what is expected. She stated that the traffic study that was prepared does not apply any more. Mr. Weld asked what is the timeline. Mr. Perry indicated that until Mr. Levenson has a use permit, there is no timeline. Mr. Weld stated that Mr. Levenson did not agree to the continuation because he wanted the application to progress. He suggested that Council act or refer the application back to the Planning Commission. Mr. Weld added that the Commission can do their job and Council can deal with anything left over. He explained that it will take some time to put it all together. Council Member Johannessen said there is a problem when a project is ready to go and property owners on the north, south, and east want to slow down and master plan. He asked if Mr. Levenson's project will be held up until they master plan. Mr. Perry agreed that a property owner should not be held up for another property owner. But he pointed out that Mr. Levenson's tentative map has not been submitted for approval or denial. He said there will probably be more lot splits and he concurs with the Planning Commission that it is necessary to know what the numbers are and not wait for the use permits. 388 9/5/89 Mayor Carter asked if a time frame can be placed on the matter. Mr. Perry responded yes, but staff is stretched thin. Council Member Dahl asked what the process would be if the application was continued. Mr. Perry indicated that if Mr. Weld is willing to continue the application, it should be sent back to the Commission. Council Member Dahl asked what the status is on the water assessment district. Mr. Weld indicated that everyone wants to act independently. Public Works Galusha conveyed that staff put together an assessment district about six months ago. He explained that an eight inch water line serves the area, but service must be improved. In response to Council Member Johannessen's question, Mr. Galusha stated that some property owners may not want to join the district because they are not ready to develop and they do not want to pay. Mr. Weld explained that a private contractor can build the water line for 40% less money. Mr. Galusha concurred that that may be possible, but there are times when a small private property owner wants to extend a line and it becomes too expensive. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Buffum, that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Council Member Buffum noted that Mr. Levenson's property is master planned, but there are no applications, and Council and staff do not know what kind of development and uses there will be. She suggested that the lot application be continued and the matter be considered a priority of staff. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Johannessen, to uphold the appeal and refer Lot Split Application LS- 34-89 back to the Planning Commission for a report and recommendation regarding the issues raised by the Planning Commission. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Council Member Dahl stated that other property owners concerns should also be addressed. Mr. Perry said that with respect to the lot split application, the Planning Commission will be the final decision maker. He indicated that the report and recommendation should take about ninety days.
