REGIONAL LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAINING RANGE - J.D. Hunt Ranch (C-070-010-050) City Manager Christofferson stated that J.D. Hunt is prepared to accept the City's latest offer of $675,000 for the 3000 acre Hunt Ranch, with closure of escrow to occur March 1, 1990. Mr. Christofferson conveyed that the Department of Fish and Game will provide $300,000 toward the acquisition in exchange for an easement in perpetuity for a deer range. He explained that the funds will come from the Wildlife Conservation Board, and he reiterated that it is payment for an easement, not a grant. It is the recommendation of the City Manager to authorize the opening of an escrow to acquire the Hunt property for $675,000, subject to arrangements with the California Department of Fish and Game for a $300,000 payment for a perpetual easement on residual property not needed for firing range purposes, with close of escrow on March 1, 1990, and provide short-term internal financing until a permanent arrangement can be made. Mr. Christofferson recommended a temporary advance of funds from the Water Fund, pending arrangements for permanent financing. He also recommended that staff be directed to secure a letter of intent from the Wildlife Conservation Board regarding the $300,000 funding, prepare appropriate easement documents, and get environmental studies underway immediately. Mr. Christofferson also stated that it would be appropriate to hold a public hearing before closing escrow. Council Member Johannessen agreed that a public hearing should be held prior to close of escrow. He said he is concerned about support from the Department of Fish and Game and stated that there is still some question about the the mineral rights. He suggested that the condition relating to mineral rights be stricken. Mayor Carter asked how long it will take to prepare the Environmental Impact Report (EIR). Mr. Perry conveyed that the EIR will not be complete until May. 513 12/5/89 In response to Mayor Carter's question, Mr. Christofferson explained that it is Council's judgement call whether or not to close escrow before the EIR is complete. Council Member Johannessen conveyed that he is not comfortable closing escrow before preparing the EIR. Mayor Carter and Council Member Buffum agreed. Mr. Christofferson indicated that this issue can be discussed with Mr. Hunt. Council Member Buffum asked if funds from the Wildlife Conservation Board would be jeopardized if the EIR did not allow this use. Mr. Perry explained that the deer easement is independent of the rifle range and the acquisition of property for wildlife is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act. He explained that the deer easement is a mitigation measure for the shooting range. Council Member Dahl noted that this is a positive opportunity. He questioned if Council Member Johannessen is asking to leave the escrow open until the EIR is complete. Council Member Johannessen responded yes. Noting that since the Department of Fish and Game is a major partner, Council Member Dahl asked what impact leaving the escrow open until the EIR process is complete will have on getting funds from the Department of Fish and Game. Dave Smith, State Department of Fish and Game, speculated that Fish and Game would hold the funds until escrow closes. He stated that the Wildlife Conservation Board will hear the issue in February. Council Member Dahl asked if Mr. Smith perceives any problems due to waiting until the EIR is complete in May or June. Mr. Smith indicated that the project will be looked upon favorably. He explained that there will be conditions forthcoming relating to the easement. Mr. Smith said it is in the Department's interest to preserve the property outside the shooting range into perpetuity. The Department will seek an agreement with the City which would preclude any kind of development on the property other than the gun range. He added that it will be a permanent wildlife conservation area which would preclude any other use, possibly even expansion of the shooting range. Council Member Buffum asked if the noise from the shooting range will bother the preserve. Mr. Smith explained that the Department recognizes that these activities do not look compatible. However, Fish and Game believe that the alternative, which is development, is not acceptable. He said it is a trade off. He added that if the Department does not preserve the land, other uses will occur which are incompatible. Mr. Smith said the deer will adjust. Council Member Fulton asked if the cart is being put before the horse by opening escrow and preparing the EIR before holding a public hearing. Mayor Carter noted that escrow can be opened and then the problems can be resolved. Council Member Dahl emphasized that the difference is that escrow is closed in May after the EIR is approved and public hearings have been held. Council Member Johannessen explained that it only makes sense to prepare an EIR if the opportunity to purchase the land is there. 514 12/5/89 Council Member Fulton expressed reservations about granting an easement into perpetuity. He explained that the City may want more land. Mayor Carter conveyed that staff will determine how much property is needed. Senior Associate Planner King stated that approximately 200 acres is necessary. Council Member Dahl conveyed his appreciation to the Department of Fish and Game for their contribution. He reiterated that staff should open escrow and hold it open until after the EIR process is completed. Mr. Perry conveyed that the month of May would be the minimum amount of time necessary to prepare the EIR. Mayor Carter stated that it is the concurrence of Council to hold a public meeting at 7:00 p.m., January 9, 1989, at the Redding Convention Center, to consider the regional law enforcement training center and public shooting range. RECESS At the hour of 8:15 p.m., Mayor Carter declared the meeting recessed. At the hour of 8:24 p.m., Mayor Carter declared the meeting reconvened.

RESOLUTION - Airport Development Policies (A-050-060-555) Planning and Community Development Director Perry submitted the revised Airport Development Policy with changes made to the Real Estate Commission and Technical Advisory Committee as requested by Council at the meeting of November 7, 1989. Council Member Johannessen noted that the leases may be subordinated to a first note to be held by a qualified lending institution provided the City has the first right of refusal on any default. He asked if the lessee was in default and the City was not able to afford the 515 12/5/89 improvements, if the City would lose the land. City Attorney Hays stated that the City will not lose fee title. Council Member Johannessen asked if the regulations regarding prohibited operations apply to the City. Mr. Hays said no, it only applies to those individuals that ask to lease land on airport property. Mr. Perry conveyed that this is a policy regarding land use on the property, these are not covenants and restrictions. He stated that if they were recorded as covenants and restrictions, the City would be held in accordance. Mr. Perry explained that Council has the right to change this policy, it is only a guide. He added that the policy applies only to the property on the west side of the Airport. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Buffum, that Resolution No. 89-456 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding establishing and adopting Municipal Airport Development Policies.

DOWNTOWN MALL - Request by Parlay Investment to Renew Lease (C-070-100 & M-010-200) Planning and Community Development Director Perry stated that a letter was received from Archer Pugh, representing Mr. Brian Leidig, president of Parlay Investments, requesting a new lease for the use of the Mall pedestrian platform and walkway to the second floor of Mr. Leidig's two-story building within the Redding Downtown Mall. Mr. Perry indicated that the lease would be similar to the previous five year lease between the City and Redevelopment Agency and Parlay Investments that expired on March 31, 1988. Council Member Buffum asked if the second story was being accessed by the platform and walkway now. Mr. Perry explained that there is a stairway to the second floor from the alley; however, the access to the office space in the front room (which is currently vacant) is primarily accessed by the platform. Council Member Johannessen asked who would be responsible for the liability and maintenance of the platform and walkway. Mr. Perry indicated that maintenance and liability would be the responsibility of the lessee and such responsibility would be covered by the lease. Noting that the previous rental lease was for $1 per year, City Attorney Hays stated that the new rental lease should have more return than that. Archer Pugh, representing Parlay Investments, outlined the background of the lease. Mr. Pugh noted that a lease will assure the future tenant, as well as the owner, that second floor access is available. He added that the ground floor has been leased in total, so Mr. Leidig cannot now ask the tenant to place a recessed stairway on the ground floor. Mr. Pugh said they are willing to reconsider a new lease. He asked Council to consider the economic conditions in the Downtown Mall, and he pointed out that Mr. Leidig has remodeled the interior of the building. He conveyed that excessive costs would be burdensome to Mr. Leidig. 516 12/5/89 MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Buffum, to approve the lease for use of the Downtown Mall pedestrian platform and walkway to the second floor of Mr. Leidig's property in concept, and direct staff and the Redevelopment Agency to recommend a lease for Council consideration. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP S-22-89 - Almaden Estates, by Shield Development Corporation (S-l00-230) Council was advised that the Planning Commission has granted permission to subdivide 4.1 acres into 14 single-family lots, located between Placer Street and Buenaventura Boulevard, described as Tentative Subdivision Map S-22-89. A map of the area and a copy of the conditions of approval were submitted to Council. This was an information item. AWARD OF BID - Bid Schedule No. 2236, Construction Contract for the West Loop 115/12kV Transmission Line and RESOLUTION - Project Change Orders (B-050-020 & E-090-160-800) Electric Utility Director Lindley reported that the low bid for the construction of the West Loop 115/12kV transmission line was received from Collins Electrical Company, Inc., in the amount of $1,773,236. It is the recommendation of staff that the bid be awarded to Collins Electric. Funds for this project are available in the 1985 Electric System Financing Project Financing Program. MOTION: Made by Council Member Johannessen, seconded by Council Member Buffum, that Bid Schedule No. 2236 (Job No. 9849-16), construction contract for the West Loop 115/12kV transmission line, be awarded to Collins Electrical Company, in the amount of $1,773,236.00, and authorize the Mayor to sign a standard City of Redding Public Works Agreement for Item 1 work. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes MOTION: Made by Council Member Johannessen, seconded by Council Member Buffum, that Resolution No. 89-457 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding authorizing the City Manager to sign project change orders on the Public Works Construction Contract with Collins Electrical Company for construction of the West Loop 115/12kV transmission line, up to an aggregate not to exceed $140,000. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Buffum, Dahl, Fulton, Johannessen, and Carter Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - None Resolution No. 89-457 is on file in the office of the City Clerk. RESOLUTION - Furniture for Police Services Division (B-050-100) Police Chief Blankenship stated that Polices Services was authorized to hire three additional employees. Work space is limited and it is the recommendation of staff to purchase Tab Products modular furniture in the amount of $12,368.43, to integrate with existing Service's Division furnishings to provide optimum use of office space. Council Member Johannessen stated that the City has been using a single vendor for the purchase of modular furniture, and in the event of the construction of a new City Hall, it will be transferable. He noted, however, that the City has spent a lot of money, and it could 517 12/5/89 be time to go out for bid again. Council Member Johannessen pointed out that three new employees were hired and it is costing $12,000 to provide furnishings. Chief Blankenship explained that the modular furniture will provide work space for seven employees, whereas there is currently workspace for three. He noted that he also had the same concerns; however, he was assured that the traditional style office furniture would not hold up on a 24-hour basis. He explained that TAB furniture has a long life span, is transferable, and can stack people comfortably. Chief Blankenship noted that there are two vendors that sell modular furniture; however, they are not compatible with each other. Council Member Buffum noted that it is a good product, and in this circumstance, it is wise to the buy the same type of product. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Johannessen, that Resolution No. 89-458 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding authorizing the purchase of compatible furniture from Tab Products, not to exceed $12,400, pursuant to Redding Municipal Code Section 4.20.120 (H) (2), and authorizing the City Manager to sign the necessary documentation. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Buffum, Dahl, Fulton, Johannessen, and Carter Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - None Resolution No. 89-458 is on file in the office of the City Clerk. REDDING MUNICIPAL AIRPORT - Redding Aero Enterprises Request for Aeronautical Activity (C-070-100 & A-090-100) Airports Director Ruff reviewed the Report to City Council dated November 30, 1989, which is incorporated by reference herein. Mr. Ruff stated that Fred Peri, dba Peri Aviation Center, and Jack N. Kilpatrick, dba Redding Aero Enterprises, have a sublease agreement between them dated March 1, 1989, for hangar space #3 of the Peri complex on Redding Municipal Airport. The sublease is for the storage of aircraft and personal property, and the Peri Aviation Center lease requires the prime lessee to obtain City approval prior to any initiation of a sublease activity. Mr. Ruff reported that it has come to his attention that Mr. Kilpatrick has been conducting a small aircraft maintenance and repair business in hangar space #3 without City approval. Mr. Ruff conveyed that the matter has been reviewed by staff and the Airports Commission. Although Mr. Kilpatrick established and pursued his activity without City approval, staff and the Airports Commission believe the business activity would be a viable and healthy one for the Airport and recommended that Redding Aero Enterprises go forward contingent upon going through the City's approval process as well as meeting the City's Building and Fire Code requirements. Staff and the Commission recommended that business activities be restricted to aircraft maintenance and repair not to exceed the confines of Peri hangar space #3, aircraft charter services, and pilot services limited only to piloting others' aircraft but not including pilot training or ground school. Mr. Ruff reported that hangar space #3 does not meet the requirements of the Building and Fire Code, and the prime lessee does not want to fund the modifications necessary to correct the deficiencies. Mr. Kilpatrick has asked to defer some improvements up to a year except 518 12/5/89 for life-safety items which must be accomplished with no deferment. Staff and the Airports Commission recommend that the applicant be allowed to comply with those items and instructions as outlined in the Building Official's October 29, 1989, letter, and the applicant be allowed to defer, for a temporary period up to but not exceeding one year, construction of the area separation walls and modifications to the public restroom. Council Member Buffum asked if all other current operators at the Airport are in compliance. Mr. Ruff conveyed that for the most part, people are in compliance; however, he cannot say for sure. He added that this is probably the one item that he has spent the most time on since becoming the Airports Director. Staff is addressing what City policies are and working toward making those policies known. He conveyed that staff is making an effort to legitimize the effort to do work at the Airport and at the same time make sure City policies are being abided by. Council Member Buffum stated that a letter from Million Air was delivered to Council tonight regarding this issue. Mayor Carter asked if the Million Air facility has water sprinklers. Deputy Fire Marshal Yowell stated that the Million Air facility was required to have sprinklers in their repair section. He explained that the sprinkler requirement is directly related to the size of the operation, and Million Air is a large operation. Redding Aero Enterprises' operation is considerably smaller and does not fall under the Code. The sprinkler requirement was not deferred because it is not required. Mr. Ruff stated that an airport operator is only required to assess whether a business is a compatible use, not whether or not the business will succeed or fail. He added that there is no exclusivity right. Mr. Ruff conveyed that if Mr. Peri wants to request an amendment of a lease to a subtenant and the operation is deemed safe, and it was, the City is not in a position to deny them the opportunity. Council Member Dahl said his concern is the deferments. He asked if there is a precedent set for deferring compliance with the Code. Mr. Ruff stated that deferrals have been granted for other businesses and locations in the City, and this action does not set a precedent. Mr. Yowell added that deferrals have been granted on a limited basis for existing businesses only. Randall Memeo, 400 Redcliff Drive, representing Million Air, stated that Million Air has two concerns: the appropriateness of this type of business and the manner in which this particular request has come about. Mr. Memeo disagreed about what type of business the City can or cannot approve for Airport use. He said the City appears to be taking a fragmented approach to Airport development. Redding Aero Enterprises is undercutting a fixed base operator (FBO) and taking business away without having the overhead. Mr. Memeo pointed out that some Commission members were opposed to this action. He added that Million Air is not opposed to competition, but it should be fair competition. The City should take steps to see if a second FBO is needed and if it is, a request for proposal (RFP) should be issued. A business should not be allowed to come in from the back door. Council Member Buffum asked if the only difference between Aero Enterprises and Million Air that Mr. Kilpatrick does not serve gas. Mr. Memeo noted that the City defines Aero Enterprises as a small 519 12/5/89 business. He noted that if one, and then another, and another small business is started, this will become a problem for Million Air. Mayor Carter pointed out that this is how free enterprise and business works. Mr. Memeo pointed out that this is a Federally-owned airport. He reiterated that if the City determines that a second FBO is needed for this size Airport, an RFP should be issued, instead of someone here and someone there, starting business. Mayor Carter pointed out that Mr. Kilpatrick has been at the Airport for fifteen years. He noted that there is a feeling in the community that the FBO is not serving their needs. Council Member Johannessen said the question is whether or not the facility is appropriate. He is hearing that it is an appropriate use; and if that is so, then he cannot see Council doing anything but approving the request. Council Member Buffum pointed out that the Commission's recommendation was split 4 to 3. She suggested reducing the temporary deferral period from one year to six months. Council Member Dahl said he is not against free enterprise; however, his concern is that of the three dissenting Commissioners, the deferral of improvements for a year. MOTION: Made by Council Member Fulton, seconded by Council Member Carter, to direct staff to work with Mr. Peri and Mr. Kilpatrick to obtain an acceptable amendment to the prime lease and an acceptable sublease arrangement between the two parties, and that the business activities be restricted to the following: aircraft maintenance and repair not to exceed the confines of Peri hangar space #3, aircraft charter services, and pilot services limited only to piloting others' aircraft but not including pilot training or ground school (no commercial refueling operation will be included); that the applicant be directed to comply with those items and instruction as outlined in the Building Official's October 20, 1989 letter, and the applicant be allowed to defer, for a temporary period up to but not exceeding one year the following: (1) area separation walls, of 1-hour minimum fire resistive construction, are required at both north and south walls of hangars, to enclose office area from repair area, and to separate parts cleaner from repair area; and (2) the public restroom needs to meet current sanitation requirements. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Fulton and Carter Noes: Council Members - Buffum, Dahl and Johannessen Absent: Council Members - None This motion failed to pass. MOTION: Made by Council Member Buffum, seconded by Council Member Johannessen, to direct staff to work with Mr. Peri and Mr. Kilpatrick to obtain an acceptable amendment to the prime lease and an acceptable sublease arrangement between the two parties, and that the business activities be restricted to the following: aircraft maintenance and repair not to exceed the confines of Peri hangar space #3, aircraft charter services, and pilot services limited only to piloting others' aircraft but not including pilot training or ground school (no commercial refueling operation will be included); that the applicant be directed to comply with those items and instruction as outlined in the Building Official's October 20, 1989 letter, and the applicant be allowed to defer, for a temporary period up to but not exceeding six 520 12/5/89 months the following: (1) area separation walls, of 1-hour minimum fire resistive construction, are required at both north and south walls of hangars, to enclose office area from repair area, and to separate parts cleaner from repair area; and (2) the public restroom needs to meet current sanitation requirements. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Buffum, Johannessen, and Carter Noes: Council Members - Dahl and Fulton Absent: Council Members - None Victor Clark, representing Redding Aero Enterprises, stated that the reason Aero Enterprises asked for a year deferral is because they would like to build a new building and become a full service FBO. He explained that it will take longer than six months to go through the RFP process and construct a building. Mr. Clark emphasized that if they are not selected in the RFP process, they will remain in hangar #3 and comply with all the requirements. Council Member Johannessen noted that Council could grant another six month extension. Mr. Clark pointed out that the Commission told Mr. Kilpatrick not to come back and ask for more time. He reiterated that their intent is to become a full service FBO, and the one-year deferral will give them the opportunity to try. Council Member Buffum asked why Aero Enterprises does not develop their long term plans concurrent with their immediate plans. Mr. Clark indicated that that is their intent; however, it will take a year. He reiterated that if they win the RFP, they will construct a new building, and if they do not, the hangar will be brought into full compliance within one year. City Attorney Hays noted that Council has not issued the permit tonight. The amendment to the master lease and sublease must be drafted, and the six month time time limit will go into effect after execution of the documents. Mr. Ruff explained that staff has addressed the issue regarding hangar #3 strictly on its own merit. He explained that any other plans Aero Enterprises has for future activity is another issue. Mr. Ruff conveyed that the FAA does not define FBO. An FBO is normally considered to be a business like Hillside Aviation and Million Air; however, it is possible to have a limited service FBO. There is not a clear definition of what an FBO is. Airports Commissioner Mistal stated that there are some errors in the Airport leases, and the Commission has asked that the leases be checked for compliance. Ms. Mistal indicated that the Commission was concerned about the deferral of improvements and the liability to the City and setting a precedent. Mayor Carter pointed out the the public has the perception that the City is doing everything it can to harm aviation. He conveyed that pilots avoid landing at the Municipal Airport. Mr. Hays stated that the City will not assume any greater liability because of this action than it already has on the Airport. RESOLUTION - Residential Curbside Recycling Pilot Project (S-020-550) Director of General Services Masingale stated that Assembly Bill 939 created a new Integrated Waste Management and Recycling Board with substantial authority. AB 939 mandates recycling levels for cities 521 12/5/89 and counties of 25% of the waste stream by 1995 and 50% by the year, 2000. Cities must submit their Integrated Waste Management and Recycling Plans by July 1991. Mr. Masingale said that State contract funds are still available for curbside recycling and other projects through the California Department of Conservation, and it is General Services' intent to implement a residential curbside recycling pilot project. Mr. Masingale outlined the project and the estimated costs. He indicated that the pilot program will cover a one-year period, be manned with current personnel, and cost the City approximately $55,142.96. State funds would total approximately $79,450. It is the recommendation of staff that Council approve the proposal with a commitment to implement the project contingent upon receiving State contract funding. If funding is not received, staff would return with the proposal through the fiscal year 1990-91 budget process for reconsideration. Council Member Johannessen asked if Mr. Masingale was familiar with Assembly Bill 3746. He noted that the Legislature is interested in getting curbside programs started; unfortunately however, there is a recycling glut. Mr. Masingale agreed and stated that the market will probably get worse. He noted, however, that as long as it costs the City less to recycle than to bury it, the project is worthwhile. Council Member Johannessen conveyed that AB3746 encourages and provides incentives to use recyclable products. Council Member Dahl said there is a glut, but the real intent of the program is to avoid the long term costs of another landfill. He reiterated that recycling will be mandated, and staff is planning for the future of the landfill. Council Member Dahl asked staff to explore privatization of the program. Mr. Masingale conveyed that staff will have the data base to consider privatization once the pilot program is completed. Mr. Masingale indicated that it is the Department's goal to run the program so cheaply that privatization will not be likely. Carl Arness, stated that he supports recycling. He stated that People of Progress (POP) may be able to handle the program. Mr. Arness pointed out that POP has been in the recycling business for some time. He encouraged Council to consider the private sector and conveyed that if the program is labor intensive, Council should find the cheapest labor to do it. Mr. Arness stated that there is a window of opportunity to research how it is done, and he asked Council to look long and hard at the City being the last one to do the work. Mr. Masingale noted that Council can look at low cost labor sources; however, the quality of service should be considered. Melinda Brown, Redding Recycling Committee, stated that the State contract funds will not be granted to a for-profit, private sector group. Ms. Brown expressed her support for the curbside recycling program. Ted Klaseen, Redding Recycling Committee, stated that the committee has been working with staff on this project. Mr. Klaseen pointed out that market conditions traditionally go up and down. He said that the State legislature is working on solving problems relating to recycling and more work will have to be done relating to public relations and educating the public. 522 12/5/89 Council Member Fulton stated that he received a letter from Ralph Eymann, Program manager of the POP Resource Recovery Program, supporting the curbside recycling project. MOTION: Made by Council Member Buffum, seconded by Council Member Fulton, that Resolution No. 89-459 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding approving the submission of a proposal under the California Beverage Container Recycling and Litter Reduction Act, and authorizing the City Manager to sign the necessary documentation; and approving the proposal with a commitment to implement the pilot project contingent upon receiving State contract funding; and if funding is not received, authorizing staff to return the proposal to Council through the fiscal year 1990-91 budget process for reconsideration. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Buffum, Dahl, Fulton, Johannessen, and Carter Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - None Resolution No. 89-459 is on file in the office of the City Clerk. COMMISSIONS, BOARDS, AND COMMITTEES (B-080) Assistant City Clerk Strohmayer stated that Government Code Section 54972 requires that a list of all appointive terms which will expire during the next calendar year, including the name of the incumbent appointee, the date of appointment, the date the term expires, and the necessary qualifications for the position, as well as a list of all boards, commissions, and committees whose members serve at the pleasure of the City Council, and the necessary qualifications for each position, be posted in the office of the City Clerk and are available to the public upon request. The lists were submitted to Council as an information item only. RESOLUTION - Parking Prohibition on Cypress Avenue (Hemsted Drive to Victor Avenue) (P-030-250) Transportation Coordinator Duryee recalled that the City modified the lane widths on Cypress Avenue from Bechelli Lane to Hilltop Drive to provide three travel lanes in each direction. In addition, the City completed reconstruction of Cypress Avenue, from Churn Creek Road to Victor Avenue, which allowed the five-lane roadway configuration to be implemented. Mr. Duryee explained that long range plans designate this to be a no parking street when the improvements are completed. It is the recommendation of the Traffic and Parking Commission, as well as staff, that parking be prohibited at all times on Cypress Avenue from Hemsted Drive to Victor Avenue. Council Member Fulton pointed out that parking is being prohibited in a very wide area, and a lot of parking will be eliminated. Mr. Duryee stated that this is a commercial area, and off-street parking can be utilized for these areas. He said that the street can be better utilized as traffic lanes. Mr. Duryee added that there were no objections or complaints received from business and homes in the area. Only Bob's Barn asked that the parking prohibition be implemented after the Christmas season. 523 12/5/89 Council Member Dahl noted that big rigs park along this area. Mr. Duryee conveyed that the Traffic and Parking Commission will be considering that issue further. Mr. Galusha stated that the parking prohibition was a design feature of the Cypress Avenue modification and reconstruction. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Johannessen, that Resolution No. 89-460 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding prohibiting parking at all times on Cypress Avenue from Hemsted Drive to Victor Avenue. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Buffum, Dahl, Fulton, Johannessen, and Carter Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - None Resolution No. 89-460 is on file in the office of the City Clerk. RESOLUTION - Parking Prohibition on Bechelli Lane from Cypress Avenue to Hemsted Drive (P-030-250) Transportation Coordinator Duryee stated that commercial office development is continuing to grow along Hemsted Drive, Knollcrest Drive, and Redcliff Drive. Traffic feeds onto Bechelli Lane through the Cypress/Bechelli signal; however, due to the traffic demands on Cypress Avenue, little signal time is allotted to Bechelli Lane causing severe backup and delays. To increase the number of vehicles utilizing the amount of signal time allotted, it is the recommendation of the Traffic and Parking Commission, as well as staff, to prohibit parking along Bechelli Lane from Cypress Avenue to Hemsted Drive. Council Member Fulton stated that too many parking spaces are being eliminated. He noted that Wallner's Plumbing has only four parking spaces in front of the building for customers, employees, and business vehicles, and now those spaces are being eliminated. Mr. Wallner, Wallner Plumbing Company, 2458 Bechelli Lane, stated that a parking prohibition would create an extreme hardship to his business. Mr. Wallner stated that staff has not spoken about the alternatives, such as widening the street or requesting that business to the north stagger their business and lunch hours. Council Member Buffum pointed out that widening the street would also impact Mr. Wallner's business. She noted that the Commission believed that the expense to widen the street was not appropriate at this time, and Council does not have the ability to mandate office hours for private business. Council Member Johannessen asked if new businesses coming into the area could pay fees toward the widening of Bechelli Lane because it is new business that is impacting traffic. Mr. Duryee explained that existing zoning already allows these type of uses, and it would be difficult for only new business to pay for the improvements. He conveyed that right-of-way would have to be purchased and utility lines moved. Planning and Community Development Director Perry stated that Council could establish a building moratorium or form a special benefit district to raise the money. Council Member Dahl sympathized with Mr. Wallner; however, he stated that he cannot see any other viable alternative. 524 12/5/89 Mayor Carter opined that business could be discouraged until improvements to Bechelli Lane are made. Mr. Wallner asked if Bechelli Lane could be widened. Mr. Duryee stated that widening Bechelli Lane would be prioritized against other projects. Council Member Buffum pointed out that a new hotel is planned in the area, and for that reason, she must support the parking prohibition. MOTION: Made by Council Member Fulton, seconded by Mayor Carter, to deny the prohibition of parking along Bechelli Lane from Cypress Avenue to Hemsted Drive. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Fulton and Carter Noes: Council Members - Buffum, Dahl, and Johannessen Absent: Council Members - None This motion failed to pass. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Buffum, that Resolution No. 89-461 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding prohibiting parking at all times on North Bechelli Lane from Hemsted Drive to Cypress Avenue. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Buffum, Dahl, and Johannessen Noes: Council Members - Fulton, and Carter Absent: Council Members - None Resolution No. 89-461 is on file in the office of the City Clerk. Mr. Duryee conveyed that past City policy stated that streets were for traffic and on-street parking was useful when lots were at full capacity. Noting that something may be done, Public Works Director Galusha stated that staff will put together a project for the widening of Bechelli Lane. CROSSWALK AT DOC'S HILLTOP SKYROOM (T-080-100) Transportation Coordinator Duryee recalled that Marshall Mayer, representing Doc's Hilltop Skyroom, asked the City to repaint a crosswalk on Hilltop Drive which had been removed as a result of a pavement overlay project. Noting that it has been City policy to not install crosswalks at uncontrolled locations, the request was referred by Council to the Traffic and Parking Commission. It is the recommendation of the Traffic and Parking Commission, as well as staff, to deny the request to repaint the crosswalk in front of Doc's Hilltop Skyroom. Council Member Fulton noted that a crosswalk in front of Doc's Skyroom would be appropriate as a safety factor. He suggested that a sign alerting motorists about crossing pedestrians be installed. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Buffum, to deny the request for a crosswalk across Hilltop Drive in front of Doc's Hilltop Skyroom. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Buffum, Dahl, Johannessen, and Carter Noes: Council Members - Fulton Absent: Council Members - None 525 12/5/89 SACRAMENTO RIVER TRAIL PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE (B-050-020 & P-050-460-700) Public Works Director Galusha reported that Shasta Constructors has essentially completed the first and second stage concrete construction of both abutments, and the precast bridge segments are curing in the precast yard. Mr. Galusha conveyed that Avar, the rock anchor subcontractor, is installing two rock anchors for testing in the east abutment, and the installation and stressing of the rock anchors for both anchors is scheduled for completion prior to Christmas. The bridge cables and segments will be installed in January, and the railings will be installed thereafter. This was an information item and no action was required. RESOLUTION - City Participation in Street Improvements (A-050-060-555 & S-070-100) Public Works Director Galusha recalled that Council approved a recommendation to increase City participation in street improvements on Walnut Street between Placer and Butte Street. Staff has prepared a policy for Council consideration which establishes the following participation by the City: (1) engineering services required for preliminary engineering, final design, and construction inspection, and (2) street or alley construction by paying the in-place bid cost for the asphalt paving. The property owners would be responsible for all grading, graveling, and construction of curb, gutter, sidewalk, and necessary drainage facilities. Mr. Galusha conveyed that the policy's intent is to only include street or alley improvements in established neighborhoods and not in newly developing areas. Mr. Galusha estimated that implementation of this policy would cost between $25,000 and $35,000 annually. He added that the City's participation in the Walnut Street Assessment District would be approximately $21,500. MOTION: Made by Council Member Buffum, seconded by Council Member Dahl, that Resolution No. 89-462 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding establishing and adopting a policy on City participation in street improvements in established neighborhoods. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Buffum, Dahl, Fulton, Johannessen, and Carter Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - None Resolution No. 89-462 is on file in the office of the City Clerk. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS Frances Jenkins (P-050-450 & P-050-100) Frances Jenkins, 2652 Sharon Street, asked what authority, if any, the Salvation Army has to establish pick-up points for transporting transients to the Armory for overnight shelter. Ms. Jenkins conveyed that an article in the Record Searchlight named Caldwell and South City parks as the pick-up points. She stated that residents object to using South City park because the area already has a problem with transients and this will amplify the problem. Ms. Jenkins pointed out that before the Salvation Army designated the pick-up points, it would have been appropriate to check with the City first. 526 12/5/89 Council Member Johannessen questioned if the City has the authority to state that City parks are not adequate pick-up points for transients. Mayor Carter encouraged Mrs. Jenkins to write a letter to the Salvation Army. Mrs. Jenkins stated that she would and said she would appreciate it if the City would also contact the Salvation Army. CLOSED SESSION (C-070-010-050) Mayor Carter stated that Council will adjourn to closed session pursuant to California Government Code Section 54956.8 to discuss real property negotiations for the purchase of the Hunt property for the Regional Law Enforcement Training Facility and Firing Range.
