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 April 12, 1990 Planning and Community Development Director Perry reported that the Planning Commission recommended approval to reclassify property from "Residential, 3.5 units per acre" and "Retail" to "Residential, 9.0 and 12.0 units per acre" and "Office." Mr. Perry indicated that the City of Redding became a co-applicant after widening the boundary of GPA-19-89 to include several surrounding parcels. Mr. Perry explained that the primary issue was the inconsistency between the existing zoning and the general plan classification for several parcels adjoining the proposed six-lot single-family-duplex subdivision. As a result, the Planning Commission expanded the General Plan amendment boundary to cover eight additional acres. If the general plan amendment is approved, the existing zoning would still need to be amended to achieve consistency.

PUBLIC HEARING - re General Plan Amendment Application GPA-13-88 and Rezoning Application RZ-14-88, by FHK Investment Company (East of Eastside Road and south of South Bonnyview Road) 179 4/17/90 (G-030-010) The hour of 7:00 P.M., having arrived, Mayor Buffum opened the public hearing regarding GPA-13-88 and RZ-14-88. 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 April 12, 1990 Planning and Community Development Director Perry stated that FHK Investment Company has applied for an amendment of the Redding General Plan on 31.6 acres from "Residential, 9.0 and 2.0 units per acre" to "Retail," of which 5.87 acres would remain classified as "Greenway." The intent of the application is to construct a 250,000-square-foot shopping center. Mr. Perry reported that the Planning Commission required FHK to prepare an environmental impact report. After two hearings on the EIR, the Commission referred the EIR back to staff and the consultant to add additional information on traffic, drainage, alternative shopping center sites, market analysis, and a larger area; recommended denial of GPA-13-88 and RZ-14-88, and recommended that Council appoint a citizen's committee to update the Cascade Neighborhood Plan. Mr. Perry explained that Council has two actions it can take--deny the applications or refer the applications back to the Commission to complete the EIR process. Mr. Perry stated that the Cascade Neighborhood Plan was adopted in 1978 and encompasses about 12 square miles. If Council decides to update the Cascade Plan, Council will have to establish a moratorium on further general plan amendment applications, deny, or gain deferral of existing applications. He explained that it is unlikely that more than 10% of the land use would change within the 12-square-mile area, and based on past experience, requests for increased density or more commercial use would occur. Mr. Perry pointed out that the real issue for the area and the City is how does the community fund improvements needed on South Bonnyview. He explained that the shopping center could represent about $1,000,000 in off-site street improvements and provide tax increment for the Redevelopment Agency to pay for additional traffic improvements in the project area, if that plan is formed. Mr. Perry added that there will be traffic created by residential development and there is an eight- acre retail site to the east of the proposed application. It is the recommendation of staff that Council refer the applications back to the Planning Commission to complete the environmental review process. It is also recommended that the Cascade Plan not be updated as the only reason to update the entire plan would be to increase the density or intensity of land use over what exists on a significant part of the undeveloped properties in the plan area. John Wilson, 6281 Center Street, said he is representing homeowners in the South Bonnyview area. Mr. Wilson stated that a shopping center will increase the number of traffic trips on South Bonnyview. He pointed out that the area is now mainly classified as Residential, 2 units per acre. Mr. Wilson agreed with staff's recommendation to not update the Cascade Neighborhood Plan because property owners would probably request higher densities. He emphasized that large commercial growth should not be allowed and the area should remain residential. He opined that commercial development is not necessary to fund improvements on South Bonnyview Road. Mr. Wilson pointed out that the developer knew the land was zoned residential when it was 180 4/17/90 purchased. He emphasized that Redding does not need a shopping center on every corner. Grady Fort, 3450 Pioneer, stated that the South Bonnyview area is a beautiful residential area, and the shopping center would permanently alter the use of the nicest residential area in Redding. He conveyed that the shopping center is not wanted or needed in this area, and it is a traffic intensive use that is too close to the elementary school. Mr. Fort stated that the local merchants should be supported and money kept in the area. He pointed out that campaign statements in the recent election were based on maintaining Redding's quality of life and he challenged Council to act accordingly. Bill Brashears, 5385 Mulberry, stated that staff's recommendation is contrary to the Planning Commission's recommendation. He pointed out that the Commission was unanimous in its decision that the EIR was inadequate, and the applications were denied four to one. He added that the Commission also recommended that a committee be appointed to update the Cascade Plan. Bob Michaels, 5967, Riverside, stated that he submitted a rezoning application for commercial nine years ago and was denied approval based on the determination that there was already too much retail, and traffic on South Bonnyview would be impacted. Mr. Michaels stated that he now has eight acres of retail on the general plan. He requested that FHK's applications be denied. He said this is a complete about face, and it is not consistent with the general plan. Betty Trail, Riverside Drive, stated that she has lived in the Bonnyview Area for 40 years. She pointed out that the property along South Bonnyview is becoming more valuable, and it is an ideal place for a shopping center. Ms. Trail said there is no other shopping center on the south side of town, and residents will save gas money and pollution will be reduced by shopping in the area. Ms. Trail stated that FHK will pay for road improvements, and that will also save the taxpayers money. Dan Rizzi, resident of Westwood Manor, stated that the area should remain rural residential, two units per acre, because another shopping center is unnecessary. He noted that heavy trucks are a problem at the interchange. Kathy Kuhn, 6220 Center Street, stated that she lives outside the 500- year flood plain, but her home has flooded twice in the last twelve years. Ms. Kuhn conveyed that she is very concerned about run-off into Olney Creek. She said the EIR is inadequate, and she urged Council to keep the general plan residential and rural to maintain the integrity and the quality of life that the citizens demand. Carrie Hodges, 17065 Shady Lane, stated that she lives south of the Redding area; however, she and other who commute into Redding will be impacted by the increased traffic. She said the shopping center will impact all of those who drive Highway 273. Chuck Rudman, Eastside and Bonnyview property owner, said he is concerned, and he is not sure if the shopping center is good or bad. Mr. Rudman questioned how much the South Bonnyview trident will relieve traffic congestion. He opined that the trident is necessary and someone has to pay for it. He said the City cannot afford to pay for the traffic improvements. Mr. Rudman conveyed that he would like to see more information pertaining to how traffic congestion can be alleviated. 181 4/17/90 Leonard Bandell, representing FHK Investment Company, stated that FHK requests that staff's recommendation be accepted by Council. Mr. Bandell stated that the EIR did not adequately address drainage and flooding and Council should have a complete document before making a decision. He conveyed that FHK will prepare a market study and supplement the EIR with regard to flooding and drainage issues. Ed DeGraff, 8733 Canyon Road, stated that is difficult to get from Canyon Road to Highway 273. Mr. Graff asked Council to deny the request. He said another shopping center is not necessary. Phyllis Fisher, Holly Road, said that she owns property across the street from the proposed shopping center and plans to develop the property for personal use. Ms. Fisher expressed her opposition to the application and stated that there is no integrity and no class in Redding. She stated that everywhere one turns there is another shopping center. Ms. Fisher conveyed that flooding will be a problem, exhaust emissions will be a problem, and if that many acres are covered with pavement, toxins will drain into Olney Creek and into the Sacramento River. Sharon Kennedy, 6833 Riverside Drive, expressed her concerns about the draft EIR. She pointed out that Cypress Avenue has all of the improvements slated for South Bonnyview and that Cypress Avenue is still not a pleasant to drive. Ms. Kennedy conveyed her concern about traffic and the railroad crossing and pointed out that the EIR could not justify the loss of oak trees, riparian habitat, and wildlife. She emphasized that Council has the opportunity to preserve this area for the City of Redding. Paul Presario, 6212 Riverside, stated that he is not opposed to the proposal. However, Mr. Presario stated that he was informed that if a shopping center is located on South Bonnyview, the street rating will drop to an "F." He added that there are alternatives sites. Mr. Presario opined that the notification system for public hearings is inherently wrong, and the notification area was not expanded enough. He added that if the area is expanded, more residents will become involved and then a valid hearing will be held. Art Hild, 6958 Riverside Drive, stated that he commutes to the Enterprise area and travels on alternate routes depending on the traffic. He conveyed that he has a vested interest in the Westside Manor shopping center because his wife owns a beauty salon there. Mr. Hill stated that the vacancy factor in Westside Manor has been up to 90%, and this fact and the turnover rate of this center should be considered. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Fulton, that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Council Member Arness suggested that the application be sent back to the Planning Commission, and it will not prejudice the Council in any way. He emphasized that no promises are being made. Noting that Public Works is preparing a traffic study, Council Member Arness asked when the document will be completed. Public Works Director Galusha stated that it will probably be finished in approximately six months. Council Member Moss stated that problems will continue to be created when commercial zoning is created on our hinterlands and cheaper property. Because the area is comprised of large vacant lots, he said there is no way Council can approve 32 acres of commercial along South Bonnyview without approving an additional 100 acres. Developers have 182 4/17/90 the right to apply, but he opined that Redding already has enough commercial property. Council Member Moss conveyed that the last time he heard a consultant discussing commercial property, the consultant stated that Redding had enough commercially zoned property as a city with a population of 250,000. He emphasized that he will be consistently opposed to establishing any more commercial zoning other than in those areas near commercial zoning. Council Member Fulton stated that a decision should be made tonight. Council Member Dahl stated that South Bonnyview has a serious traffic problem. There has been explosive residential growth and the trend will continue. He conveyed that he has a problem with this request to amend the general plan because it will compound a serious problem. However, of equal concern is that the existing general plan will allow residential growth to expand, and traffic has to be addressed with or without the shopping center. Council Member Dahl pointed out that if the opportunity to have the EIR studies done is available, Council should take advantage of that. He added that a way must be found to pay for traffic improvements. Council Member Arness conveyed that the applicant should be given the opportunity to go through the process. Noting that the City does not have extra money, Mayor Buffum agreed that it is advantageous for the City to have development money prepare the studies. Council Member Moss stated that he disliked having the neighborhood up in arms for this considerable period of time; however, if the developer is willing to spend the money for the studies, he will support the recommendation. MOTION: Made by Council Member Arness, seconded by Council Member Dahl, to refer GPA-13-88 and RZ-14-88, by FHK Investments, back to the Planning Commission to complete the environmental review process and not update the Cascade Neighborhood Plan.

The mission of the Task Force was to submit a report on the level of services and make a recommendation regarding the direction the departments should follow for the next five years. Council Member Dahl recommended that Council authorize the establishment of a new Public Safety Task Force to chart a five-year plan for Police and Fire protection. Council Member Dahl recommended that the Task Force be similar in structure to the previous Task Force and that the Mayor make the appointments. He suggested that the Task Force be established at the conclusion of labor negotiations with the Fire Fighter's Association, and that the five-year plan be more focused and a review of the recommendations take place within two years of its adoption. He added that the report should address the impacts of additional annexations and our expanded geographical size, including the sphere of influence, and that the local drug problem should have a major emphasis in the report.

MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Fulton, to hold a City Council workshop at 8:30 a.m., Saturday, May 12, 1990, at the United Way Conference Room on Benton Drive.

Mr. Perry reported that the Planning Commission found that acquisition for the purpose of a corporation yard in the Service Commercial areas of 187 4/17/90 the property was consistent with the General Plan. Development of other than park facilities in the residential areas would first require a general plan amendment. It is the recommendation of staff to authorize acquisition of the property.

Mr. Ruff explained that airport industry standards may be used as a guideline and rental rates will be tied to the Consumer Price Index on an annual basis. He added that the quality and conditions of the hangar are also to be considered. Mr. Ruff stated that there has been an ongoing effort over the past six months to examine and survey other airports and determine what other airports charge. He added that the rental fees and charges at Municipal and Benton Airports have not been updated since 1986. Council Member Dahl complimented Mr. Ruff and the Airports Commission for taking a controversial issue and completing it successfully. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Fulton, to approve and adopt the new Hangar Rental Agreement Form for the Municipal and Benton Airports.

The Vote: Unanimous Ayes TRANSFER STATION - Temporary Drop-Off Center (S-020-650 & S-020-550) Director of General Services Masingale recalled that the Solid Waste Division assumed operation of the Voluntary Drop-off Center at the Benton Transfer Station on March 20, 1990, after People of Progress ceased operation of the center on March 19, 1990. Staff has evaluated past and present programs, practices, and performances and concluded that the Transfer Station can assume the activities of the Voluntary Drop-off Center with little or no budgetary impact. It is the recommendation of staff that Council approve funding to allow the incorporation of the Voluntary Drop-off Center into the Transfer Station facility. 189 4/17/90 Council Member Arness stated that he would like to review this matter further and asked if action on this item may be continued to the following Council meeting. Mr. Masingale explained that resources will be stretched thin, but it is possible to continue this item.

The Vote: Unanimous Ayes TRAFFIC IMPACT FEE PROGRAM (T-080-400) Public Works Director Galusha recalled that in April 1989, Public Works staff formalized a draft study reviewing the projected traffic impacts to the Redding area by the year 2010. Staff met with a traffic task force created by the Builders' Exchange in July, 1989, and reviewed the 20-year traffic plan. It was apparent that the 20- year plan was unattainable and staff revised the program to reflect transportation improvements for a ten-year plan. Mr. Galusha submitted the Transportation Development Fee Program and it is incorporated by reference herein. He conveyed that the projected cost of traffic improvements is $35,122,000 and as development continues and additional traffic studies are conducted, the project list of improvements will grow. Staff, as well as the task force, believe that a program which imposes an additional fee on new construction is appropriate to fund the improvements; however, the task force felt that the fees proposed by staff were too high and unacceptable. Mr. Galusha added that even with the impact fee as proposed, special benefit districts or spot development fees will still be required. It is the recommendation of staff that a public hearing be set for May 1, 1990, to review the proposed traffic impact fee. MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member Moss, that a public hearing be set for 7:00 p.m., May 1, 1990, to review the proposed traffic impact fee program.
