The Vote: Unanimous Ayes PUBLIC HEARING - re Annexation 90-8, Hollow Lane Area (A-150-230) The hour of 7:00 p.m. having arrived, Mayor Moss opened the public hearing regarding Annexation 90-8, Hollow Lane Area. The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk. 13 06/16/92 Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing Planning Commission recommendation dated June 16, 1992 City Clerk Strohmayer advised that no protests were received Planning and Community Development Director Perry related that the Shasta Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO), at its April 23, 1992, meeting approved Annexation 90-8, Hollow Lane, and designated the City Council as the agency for the conducting authority proceedings. The annexation comprises 89.3 acres and the primary reason for this annexation is to receive City services. Mr. Perry explained that this is an inhabited annexation request consisting of 12 or more registered voters. He explained Council's responsibility as the conducting authority and the actions which are before them for consideration. Mr. Perry stated that to date, no protests have been received. If written protests are received from less than 25 percent of the registered voters or less than 25 percent of the number of owners of land owning less than 25 percent of the assessed value of the land within the annexation, it is the recommendation of staff that Council adopt a resolution ordering the boundary change. Council Member Arness requested that staff routinely incorporate into annexation staff reports the parcels within the area and their respective sizes. Mr. Perry stated that staff would be able to provide that information in the next fiscal year. Bernie Williams, 19431 Hollow Lane, has reservations concerning this annexation as it is designed to provide sewer services to the area. He related that the area has existing sewer services which were paid for through a bond issue. In addition, water is provided by Bella Vista Water District. While he is not opposed to annexation, he objects to paying for duplication of services. He strongly objects to a Mello-Roos District. Mayor Moss assured Mr. Williams that the City cannot impose an assessment on his property with regard to this particular annexation. Mayor Moss determined there were no additional individuals wishing to speak on the matter and closed the public hearing. MOTION: Made by Council Member Arness, seconded by Council Member Anderson, that Resolution No. 92-295 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding ordering territory designated as "Annexation 90-8, Hollow Lane" annexed to the City of Redding. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Anderson, Arness, Kehoe and Moss Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - Dahl Resolution No. 92-295 is on file in the office of the City Clerk.

The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk. Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing Planning Commission recommendation dated June 16, 1992 City Clerk Strohmayer advised that two protests were received as indicated in the Report to City Council, dated June 16, 1992. Planning and Community Development Director Perry related that the Shasta Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO), at its meeting of April 23, 1992, approved Annexation 91-6 and designated the City Council as the agency for the 14 06/16/92 conducting authority proceedings. LAFCO modified the boundary of the annexation by merging it with Annexation 90-10, Posey Lane Area, which comprises 11.48 acres in the southeast portion of the annexation. LAFCO also deleted a five-acre parcel on the east side of Twin Towers Drive along the east boundary of the annexation. As modified, the annexation comprises 425.7 acres and the primary reason for this annexation is to receive City services. Mr. Perry explained that this is an inhabited annexation request consisting of 12 or more registered voters. He explained Council's responsibility as the conducting authority and the actions which are before them for consideration. Mr. Perry stated that to date, two protest letters have been received. If written protests are received from less than 25 percent of the registered voters or less than 25 percent of the number of owners of land owning less than 25 percent of the assessed value of the land within the annexation, it is the recommendation of staff that Council ratify the Negative Declaration and adopt a resolution ordering the boundary change. Mayor Moss determined that there was no one present who wished to speak on the issue and closed the public hearing.

PUBLIC HEARING - re Abandonment Application A-4-92, by Richard Bakken (West side of Lakeside Drive at the Intersection of Mt. Ashland Avenue and Lakeside Drive) (A-150-246) The hour of 7:00 p.m. having arrived, Mayor Moss opened the public hearing regarding Abandonment Application A-4-92. The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk. Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing Planning Commission recommendation dated June 9, 1992 City Clerk Strohmayer advised that no protests were received. Planning and Community Development Director Perry explained that the Planning Commission at its meeting of April 28, 1992, recommended approval of a request by Richard Bakken to abandon approximately 20 feet of street right-of-way along Lakeside Drive adjacent to Mt. Ashland Avenue. Mr. Perry stated that both the Planning Commission and staff concurred that the subject right-of-way is not needed and that it should be abandoned. The Planning Commission recommended that a public-service easement be retained and that the property owner construct curb, gutter and sidewalk along the frontage of Lakeside Drive, relocate an existing waterline, merge the vacated right-of- way with the adjoining property, and stipulate the driveway location. It is the recommendation of the Planning Commission and staff that Council approve the abandonment in concept, ratify the Negative Declaration, and direct staff that upon compliance with the conditions of approval or an 15 06/16/92 agreement to that effect, that a resolution of abandonment be prepared for Council's consideration. Mayor Moss determined that there was no one present who wished to speak on the issue and closed the public hearing. MOTION: Made by Council Member Anderson, seconded by Council Member Arness, that Council make the following findings regarding Abandonment Application A- 4-92: 1. 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 April 8, 1992. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes MOTION: Made by Council Member Anderson, seconded by Council Member Arness, approving Abandonment Application A-4-92, by Richard Bakken, in concept, subject to the conditions outlined in the Report to City Council dated June 9, 1992, incorporated herein by reference, and directing staff to prepare a resolution of abandonment for consideration upon compliance with the conditions or an agreement to that effect. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes PUBLIC HEARING - re Rezoning Application RZ-12-92 and General Plan Amendment GPA-4-92, by Jeff Mora and the City of Redding (Adjacent to Twin Tower Drive and south of Winter Way) (L-010-230 & G-030-010) The hour of 7:00 p.m. having arrived, Mayor Moss opened the public hearing regarding Rezoning Application RZ-12-92 and General Plan Amendment GPA-4-92. The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk. Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing Planning Commission recommendation dated June 9, 1992 City Clerk Strohmayer advised that no protests were received. Planning and Community Development Director Perry related that the Planning Commission at its May 26, 1992, meeting recommended amendment of the Redding General Plan on property located east of Twin Tower Drive from "Residential 0.2 unit per acre" to "Residential, 2.0 and 3.0 units per acre" and "Greenway." It also recommended prezoning the property to "R1-B10," "R1-B20," and "R1-BFM" Single Family Residential Districts. By earlier action of the Commission, the General Plan amendment and rezoning area were expanded to generally coincide with a pending annexation, Annexation 90-5, Twin Tower Drive. Mr. Perry explained that the General Plan amendment area represents approximately 200 acres and the prezoning area consists of 160 acres. Significant subdivision development has occurred west of the amendment area at densities between two and three units per acre. Amendment of the General Plan and the application of appropriate zoning will allow the pattern of development to continue eastward. Mr. Mora's property, which initiated the request, comprises about 40 acres of the area. Mr. Perry noted that a letter has been received from the Bella Vista Water District requesting that densities not exceed 1.0 unit per acre in the area in order to maintain a rural atmosphere. Staff is seeking clarification of that request as it pertains to future annexations and General Plan amendments within the District. It is the recommendation of the Planning Commission and staff that Council approve General Plan Amendment GPA-4-92 and Rezoning Application RZ-12-92, ratify the Negative Declaration and direct staff to submit the necessary resolution and ordinance for consideration. Jerry Pearson, 19584 Wintu Way, opposed increasing the density on the subject property thereby eliminating the area's rural atmosphere. In addition, he expressed concern regarding the impact it would place on the area's current water situation. 16 06/16/92 Marty Beyer, 19520 Old Indian Trail, expressed concern regarding the proposed General Plan amendment and the rezoning for the following reasons: (1) Environmental impact of the increased traffic load on Collyer Drive and Old Oregon Trail and the future development and expansion of Twin Tower Road, in addition to the further development and expansion of Old Indian Trail; (2) Impact on current water supply. Residents within the Bella Vista Water District are experiencing water reductions due to the drought; therefore, development will impact the supply even further; (3) Does not foresee that the rezoning and eventual annexation will affect the residents of the area; (4) City's ability to provide adequate police and fire protection; and (5) Disagrees with the philosophy that all areas need to be developed to the maximum density. She requested Council to deny the General Plan amendment and the Rezoning Application. Jim DeGuara, 19603 Wintu Way, opposed the General Plan Amendment and the Rezoning Application. Joe Golenor stated that he does not oppose the proposal with regard to Mr. Mora's property. He does not, however, favor changing the density on his own property, eliminating the rural atmosphere. He noted that the Planning Commission granted more density than was originally requested by Mr. Mora. Mr. Perry explained that State Planning Law requires the City to have a General Plan which extends beyond its boundaries. He related that when an annexation request is received, the City tries to accomplish the following: (1) Square the boundaries; and (2) Prezone the area or adopt the equivalent of a specific plan. He commented that in order to prezone an area, the City has to have a General Plan which indicates City services might be required. In addition, he stated that the Planning Commission did not have the benefit of the testimony provided this evening. Jeff Mora, 11649 Twin Tower, stated he is primarily interested in the General Plan Amendment and the Rezoning Application as it relates to his property and its development. He opined that because the property is in the City's sphere of influence, it should naturally have a higher density. He does not feel the changes will negatively affect other property owners within the area, as they are not required to further develop their property. He acknowledged that when the various proposed road extensions are completed, the rural atmosphere will eventually be affected. Dan Saler, 19486 Hollow Lane, does not favor the increased density. He is concerned about water, traffic, and the general lifestyle of the area. Mayor Moss determined there were no additional individuals wishing to speak on the issue and closed the public hearing. In response to Council Member Anderson, Mr. Perry replied that unless the area is annexed, the City's zoning will have no affect on the property. In addition, based on the testimony this evening, unless otherwise requested, the area to the north would be excluded from the annexation. Council Member Anderson stated that he is not in favor of any additional annexations until it is known how the Mello-Roos District functions, or unless the County relinquishes the recently-negotiated property taxes. Mayor Moss shared Council Member Anderson's concern regarding the development of revenue to pay for public protection. He favored referring the matter back to staff for further recommendation. Mr. Perry related that Council has the option of referring the north half back to the Planning Commission and proceeding with the south half. He indicated that the boundaries were originally expanded to develop a 20-year plan for the area. Council Member Kehoe favored referring the matter back to the Planning Commission. He also concurred with not proceeding with further annexations until more is known regarding the Mello-Roos. MOTION: Made by Council Member Kehoe, seconded by Council Member Anderson, to refer General Plan Amendment GPA-4-92 and Rezoning Application RZ-12-92 back 17 06/16/92 to staff and the Planning Commission for further consideration and recommendation. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes PUBLIC HEARING - re General Plan Amendment Application GPA-5-92, by Fred Meyer (Adjacent to both sides of Lucky Lane, between Dana Drive and Highway 44) (G-030-010) The hour of 7:00 p.m. having arrived, Mayor Moss opened the public hearing regarding General Plan Amendment GPA-5-92. The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk. Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing Planning Commission recommendation dated June 8, 1992 City Clerk Strohmayer advised that no additional protests were received since the Report to City Council dated June 8, 1992. Planning and Community Development Director Perry related that the Planning Commission at its May 26, 1992, meeting recommended approval of a request by Fred Meyer, Inc., to amend the General Plan from "Residential, 12.0 units per acre" to "Retail Commercial." The request is identical to that approved by the City in 1990, GPA-7-90. The General Plan classification has since reverted to the previous residential classification due to the failure of the applicant to satisfy the requirements of an associated land-use agreement. Mr. Perry explained that the area involved consists of 24 parcels, which are currently vacant. The above-mentioned agreement required that these parcels be merged. This was not accomplished within the time frame required by the agreement; however, a map to merge the properties has now been filed with the City. The map has yet to record. Mr. Perry stated that in considering the environmental impacts of the proposed General Plan amendment, traffic circulation was identified as a potentially significant issue. The amendment area was included in the traffic study prepared by Costco under General Plan Amendment GPA-14-88. This traffic supplement to EIR-3-79 for the Costco General Plan Amendment included a worst- case scenario that assume retail-commercial development of the subject parcels. Mitigations necessary to maintain satisfactory traffic-service levels in the area were identified in the Supplement. Two of those mitigations, acquisition of property for the relocation of the Dana Drive off ramp and establishment of a traffic-impact fee, have been implemented by Council. Mr. Perry noted that staff has not identified any other potential impacts relative to the proposed General Plan Amendment. The existing zoning requires a use permit be obtained for any use. With submittal of the use permit, the site would be subject to further environmental review. It is the recommendation of the Planning Commission and staff that Council recertify the Environmental Impact Report and approve GPA-5-92 with the stipulation that the resolution implementing the General Plan amendment be adopted only after the parcels within the amendment are merged. In response to Council Member Kehoe, Mr. Perry provided the following responses with regard to the letter dated May 26, 1992 from the Sierra Club, as indicated in the Report to City Council dated June 8, 1992, incorporated herein by reference: (1) This is a previously approved General Plan Amendment and does not represent a loss of continuity. The traffic study provided a worst-case scenario of possible traffic impacts. As a result of the study, a list of improvements was developed and the Dana Drive Benefit District was formed. In addition, the Redding Redevelopment Agency has been doing traffic improvements in the area; (2) Loss of multi-family land - The Planning Commission and staff might have made a different recommendation, if the plan had not been to relocate the Dana Drive off-ramps, immediately adjacent to this property; and (3) With regard to the overall consistency of the General Plan law and community goals which have been ruled invalid and obsolete, the City had a lawsuit which attacked the Redding General Plan. An update of the Land Use Element has been prepared; however, has not been adopted pending resolution of the Softball Complex issue. 18 06/16/92 Kelley Clark, 577 Brock Drive, reviewed his letter to Council dated May 26, 1992, included in the Report to City Council dated June 8, 1992. He maintained the City's General Plan, specifically the Land Use Element, is not in compliance with State law. Further, the City has had an opportunity to bring it into compliance; however, has not yet done so in a timely fashion. It is the opinion of the Sierra Club that the City needs to postpone any major General Plan Amendments, pending the adoption of the revised Land Use Element. In addition, a project of this significance should be postponed, pending implementation of the Air Quality Attainment Plan, effective July 1, 1992. Mr. Clark asserted that the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) which was completed in 1979 does not encompass this 28-acre parcel and he questioned the basis on which the Planning Commission certified that it includes said parcel. Mr. Perry replied that the Planning Commission reviewed the supplemental information prepared with regard to the EIR. The Planning Commission and staff concurred that EIR was adequate to identify the projected impacts of the project. The EIR focused on traffic which was identified as the primary impact. Staff reports and other documents addressed land use issues which were identified but not found to be significant. Mr. Perry opined that congestion management type issues have been already been addressed in a highly focused manner. He also felt that if the Air Quality Control District implements its program in a timely manner, any development of this property will be subject to air quality review. Mayor Moss determined there were no additional individuals wishing to speak on the issue and closed the public hearing. MOTION: Made by Council Member Anderson, seconded by Council Member Arness, to recertify Environmental Impact Report (EIR) EIR-3-79, and approve General Plan Amendment Application GPA-5-92 in concept, with the stipulation that the resolution implementing the General Plan Amendment be adopted only after the parcels within the amendment area are merged. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Anderson, Arness, Kehoe and Moss Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - Dahl PUBLIC HEARING - re General Plan Amendment Application GPA-3-90, by Nolan Brewer and the City of Redding (Columbia Plan/Enterprise Skypark) (G-030-010) The hour of 7:00 p.m. having arrived, Mayor Moss opened the public hearing regarding General Plan Amendment GPA-3-90. The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk. Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing Planning Commission recommendation dated June 10, 1992 City Clerk Strohmayer advised that one protest letter was received today from Douglas K. Balfour. Planning and Community Development Director Perry recalled that Council at its January 22, 1992, meeting approved in concept an amendment to the Columbia Area Plan, which addresses land-use classifications encompassing the Enterprise Skypark and certain adjoining properties. The application was submitted by Nolan Brewer, but includes a City-initiated review of the policies of the Columbia Plan pertaining to the Skypark. The proposal would reclassify the subject area from "Airport Service," "Greenway," and "Residential, 0.5 units per acre" to "Service Commercial," "Residential, 9.0 units per acre," and "Residential, 3.0 units per acre." Mr. Perry explained that Council deferred final action on the General Plan amendment and directed staff to prepare the necessary revisions to the text of the Columbia Plan coinciding with elimination of the "Airport Service" and "Greenway" land-use designations of the Skypark. Council further directed that the General Plan amendment proposal be referred to the Shasta County Airports Land Use Commission (ALUC) for review. The Planning Commission at its May 26, 1992, meeting conducted a public hearing on the text amendments to the Columbia Plan, as indicated in the 19 06/16/92 Report to City Council dated June 10, 1992, incorporated herein by reference, and forwarded a recommendation of approval to Council. In addition, ALUC staff has informed the City that the General Plan amendment is not subject to ALUC review and that a hearing on the proposal will not be scheduled. It is the recommendation of both the Planning Commission and staff that Council adopt a Negative Declaration and approve General Plan Amendment GPA-3- 90 amending the land-use plan and text of the Columbia Area Plan as illustrated in the Report to City Council. Mayor Moss determined there was no one present who wished to speak on the issue and closed the public hearing. MOTION: Made by Council Member Arness, seconded by Council Member Anderson, that Council make the following findings regarding General Plan Amendment GPA- 3-90: 1. 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 April 4, 1990. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes MOTION: Made by Council Member Arness, seconded by Council Member Anderson, approving General Plan Amendment GPA-3-90 in concept, amending the land-use plan to "Service Commercial," "Residential, 9.0 units per acre," and "Residential, 3.0 units per acre," directing staff to prepare the necessary resolution to implement the General Plan Amendment, and amending the text of the Columbia Area Plan as illustrated in the Report to City Council dated June 10, 1992. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes PUBLIC HEARING - re General Plan Amendment Application GPA-1-90 and Variance Application V-11-92, by Kenneth Knighten (501 Twin View) (G-030-010) The hour of 7:00 p.m. having arrived, Mayor Moss opened the public hearing regarding General Plan Amendment GPA-1-90 and Variance Application V-11-92. The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk. Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing Planning Commission recommendation dated June 8, 1992 City Clerk Strohmayer advised that no protests were received. Planning and Community Development Director Perry related that the Planning Commission at its meeting of May 26, 1992, recommended approval of a General Plan Amendment request submitted by Kenneth Knighten to reclassify property located at 501 Twin View Boulevard from "Residential, 12.0 units per acre" to "Service Commercial." In conjunction with the General Plan Amendment, the Commission also 20 06/16/92 recommended approval of the placement of fill on the property within the 100- year floodplain of Boulder Creek, to increase the usable area of the site. The fill placement would result in a relocation of the floodplain boundary which defines the "Greenway" classification. Mr. Perry noted that based upon the findings of a hydraulic analysis on the proposed fill encroachment into the floodplain, the Planning Commission waived the requirement for an EIR and authorized preparation of a Negative Declaration. Since this request involves a General Plan amendment, the variance was forwarded to the City Council. In 1990, this application was continued to allow Mr. Knighten time to address the objections of the Department of Fish and Game to the proposed channelization and fill along Boulder Creek. Since that time, Mr. Knighten has revised his proposal and has received the endorsement of Fish and Game. Mr. Perry explained that staff's recommendation to the Planning Commission was for denial of the General Plan amendment based upon a concern that many of the uses typical to the requested "Service Commercial" General Plan classification are potentially incompatible with the nearby mobilehome park, the KOA facility, and future uses across the creek. In making its recommendation for approval, the Planning Commission opined that the requested "Service Commercial" classification was consistent with the existing commercial uses along Twin View Boulevard to the north and along Lake Boulevard east of Market Street. The Commission further opined that the concerns for site development and land-use compatibility could be adequately addressed through the use permit process if the property were zoned "U" Unclassified District, which would require a use permit approval prior to any development of the site. It is the recommendation of the Planning Commission that Council ratify the Negative Declaration, and approve General Plan Amendment Application GPA-1-90 and Variance Application V-11-92 as indicated in the Report to City Council dated June 8, 1992, incorporated herein by reference. Ken Knighten, applicant, requested Council to change the amendment to reflect "C-3," Heavy Commercial and Light Industrial District. He originally requested "C-3," however, the Planning Commission recommended "U" Unclassified District. Mayor Moss determined there were no additional individuals wishing to speak on the matter and closed the public hearing. MOTION: Made by Council Member Anderson, seconded by Council Member Arness, that Council make the following findings regarding General Plan Amendment GPA- 1-90 and Variance Application V-11-92: 1.

The Vote: Unanimous Ayes PUBLIC HEARING - re Annual Increase of City's Schedule of Fees and Service Charges 21 06/16/92 (F-205-600) The hour of 7:00 p.m. having arrived, Mayor Moss opened the public hearing regarding the annual increase of the City's Schedule of Fees and Service Charges. The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk. Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing Finance Department recommendation dated June 11, 1992 City Clerk Strohmayer advised that no protests were received. Finance Director Downing related that in accordance with City Policy, staff has developed adjustments to the Schedule of Fees and Service Charges. She explained that the last blanket adjustment of the schedule was approved by City Council on June 18, 1991. Most of the adjustments proposed herein are based on the change of 3.8 percent in the Consumer Price Index for the year ended March, 1992. However, in accordance with the direction given by Council at its March 17, 1992, meeting, Planning Division fees were increased by 15 percent of the cost of providing such services. At the conclusion of the public hearing, it is the recommendation of staff that Council adopt the necessary resolution adjusting the Schedule of Fees and Service Charges. Mayor Moss determined there was no one present wishing to speak on the matter and closed the public hearing. MOTION: Made by Council Member Arness, seconded by Council Member Kehoe, that Resolution No. 92-297 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding amending its Schedule of Fees and Service Charges, reflecting the annual increase. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Anderson, Arness, Kehoe and Moss Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - Dahl Resolution No. 92-297 is on file in the office of the City Clerk.

COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT REPORT (G-100-030-037) Council Member Kehoe related that the Community Needs Assessment Report, which was submitted to Council at its May 5, 1992, meeting, outlines recommendations, strategies, identifies needs, and incorporates results of the public hearings conducted by the Community Development Advisory Committee. He stressed the importance of Council to accept the report. In addition, he recommended that Council refer the item referencing the formation of an ad-hoc committee to further study land use policies as they relate to affordable housing issues to the Housing Authority for further consideration. MOTION: Made by Council Member Kehoe, seconded by Council Member Anderson, to accept the Community Needs Assessment Report as presented and refer the formation of an ad-hoc committee to further study land use policies as they relate to affordable housing issues to the Housing Authority. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes 22 06/16/92 LEGISLATIVE MATTERS (L-040-300) In a Report to City Council dated June 11, 1992, incorporated herein by reference, City Manager Christofferson recommended that Council support H.R. 776, stipulating that a "Safe Harbor" provision be included; thereby, forcing all utilities, public and private, into a new transmission access and planning process that would be coordinated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). MOTION: Made by Council Member Anderson, seconded by Council Member Arness, authorizing the Mayor to send a letter to Congressman Herger expressing support of H.R. 776, with the stipulation that a "Safe Harbor" provision be included. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes In response to Council Member Arness, Mr. Christofferson indicated that it would be beneficial to meet with the City's various legislative representatives. If Council desires, staff would be happy to assist in arranging such a meeting. Mayor Moss concurred that he sees merit in arranging such a meeting. He opined that it would be appropriate to have the legislative representatives attend a City Council meeting and indicate what the State's intentions are relative to the City's traditional sources of revenue. Mr. Christofferson indicated that he would determine if such a meeting can be arranged. ORDINANCE - re Uniform Public Cost Accounting Act and Increasing Purchasing Limitations (B-050) Finance Director Downing related that Council at its February 18, 1992, meeting elected to become subject to the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Program as promulgated by the State of California and approved increasing the purchasing system limitations. It is the recommendation of staff that Council offer the necessary ordinance for first reading. Council Member Anderson offered Ordinance No. 2018 for first reading, an ordinance of the City Council of the City of Redding amending Title 4 of the Redding Municipal Code by adding Chapter 4.22, Public Projects; and amending Sections 4.20.120/130/160. LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE DISTRICTS - Background Information (L-170-075) In a Report to City Council dated June 8, 1992, incorporated herein by reference, Planning and Community Development Director Perry provided Council with background information on landscape maintenance districts, specific information regarding the maintenance agreement and costs for Landscape Maintenance District No. 5, River Park Highlands Subdivision, and options to maintain landscaping along major arterials in residential subdivisions. This was an information item and no action was required. ENTERPRISE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DISTRICT - re Notice of Exemption from City Zoning (E-060-325) Planning and Community Development Director Perry related that the Enterprise Elementary School District has notified the City of its exempting the construction of a new school, located east of Churn Creek Road, south of Boulder Creek, and north of Quail Ridge Subdivision, from having to obtain a use permit from the City. Under City zoning, schools require a use permit. This action by the school board is consistent with past actions where it has added portable units to campuses without City review and has additions to Parson and Alta Mesa Schools under construction. This is, however, the first time the District has gone through the proper procedure. Mr. Perry explained that the District was aware of the use permit requirements, but chose not to make an application. They did submit for a General Plan consistency finding on October, 1989. On February 27, 1991, the City deeded five acres to the District for part of the school that had been deeded to the City for park purposes. The District has also required several adjoining parcels to increase the acreage of the school on Springer Drive. 23 06/16/92 This additional land was not submitted for General Plan review pursuant to California Government Code Section 65402(c). In October, 1989, the District sent out notice of a Negative Declaration on the proposed school, which indicated it was to be located outside of the 100- year floodplain of Boulder Creek. As now planned, the site will create considerable fill within the 100-year floodplain. The floodplain identified for the Negative Declaration affected less area than that adopted by FEMA. The Report to City Council dated June 8, 1992, incorporated herein by reference, outlines issues of concern regarding schools developed within the City. Mr. Perry commented that this is a policy question on the part of the City Council. Council should be aware that three to four other schools are planned within the City once funding for construction is secured and the same sequence of events is likely to be repeated. It is the recommendation of staff that Council authorize the Mayor to send a letter to the School District relating Council's concerns. In response to Council Member Anderson, Mayor Moss stated, that to his knowledge, no response, to date, has been received from the Redding Elementary School District. He related that he will meet with the City Manager and Planning Director to decide the appropriate course of action to take with regard to this matter and contact the appropriate individuals and relate Council's concerns. LOT SPLIT APPLICATION LS-52-91 - by Shasta Enterprises (L-010-150) Council was advised that the Planning Commission approved a lot split granting Shasta Enterprises permission to divide 20 acres into nine industrial/commercial lots on property located at 5893 Airport Road. A map of the area and a copy of the conditions of approval were submitted to Council. This was an information item. TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP - re Airport Park Subdivision, by the City of Redding (S-100) Council was advised that the Planning Commission approved a lot split granting the City of Redding permission to divide 43 acres into 19 industrial/commercial lots on property located on Airport Road opposite the Municipal Airport. A map of the area and a copy of the conditions of approval were submitted to Council. This was an information item. CITY'S POLICY RE PURCHASING PG&E FACILITIES IN NEWLY-ANNEXED AREAS (E-090-020 & A-150) Electric Utility Engineering Manager Russell explained that the City's policy in the past has been to purchase, where practical, the Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) facilities serving the area. These purchases have been made at Electric Utility ratepayer expense with no cost to newly-annexed customers. Over the last 10 years, these costs have averaged approximately $280,000.00 per year. Mr. Russell recalled that Council at its May 19, 1992, meeting requested the Electric Utility Commission (EUC) to review the current policy of purchasing PG&E facilities in newly-annexed areas. After considerable discussion, the EUC adopted a motion that there be no change in policy for annexed areas as it would be inconsistent with the current Electric Utility Service Policy since the Electric Utility furnishes, at its expense, all overhead electric facilities and a significant portion of underground electric facilities to serve new development. Council Member Arness requested that staff review associated costs whenever annexations are completed. Because the Electric Utility Department does, in fact, put significant money into development, he related the importance of considering this issue when considering rate increases and how these costs are being passed on to the ratepayer. 24 06/16/92 MOTION: Made by Council Member Anderson, seconded by Council Member Kehoe, to not change the City's policy regarding the purchase of Pacific Gas and Electric facilities in newly annexed areas. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Anderson, Kehoe and Moss Noes: Council Members - Arness Absent: Council Members - Dahl RESOLUTION - re Award of Bid Schedule No. 2593, Banking Services (B-050-100) City Treasurer Linville related that in January, 1992, the City mailed Requests for Proposal (RFP) for banking services to all local banks. Only two responses were received, Bank of America and First Interstate Bank. Ms. Linville related that due to First Interstate Bank's pricing, collateral requirements, and basic services, it is the recommendation of the City Treasurer and the Director of Finance that Council accept the banking proposal contract submitted by First Interstate Bank and adopt a resolution directing the City Treasurer to sign the necessary documents. In response to Council Member Anderson, Ms. Linville that the City bettered its position by rebidding the service. Additional savings will also be realized by utilizing a micro-encoder which has been included in the 1992-93 budget. MOTION: Made by Council Member Kehoe, seconded by Council Member Anderson, that Resolution No. 92-298 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding approving and authorizing the City Treasurer to sign the Banking Service Contract between the City of Redding and First Interstate Bank of California. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Anderson, Arness, Kehoe and Moss Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - Dahl Resolution No. 92-298 is on file in the office of the City Clerk. SOLICIT BIDS FOR FIVE NEIGHBORHOOD PARK SITES (P-050) Recreation and Parks Director Riley related that Council authorized the development of five neighborhood park sites in the Recreation and Parks Budget in 1991-92 which were to be funded by in-lieu fees and park development fees. The sites are as follows: (1) Western Oaks Neighborhood Park - In-Lieu Park Fees ($75,000.00); (2) Creekside Meadows Neighborhood Park - In-Lieu Park Fees ($75,000.00); (3) Ravenwood Neighborhood Park - In-Lieu Park Fees ($75,000.00); (4) Indian Hills Neighborhood Park - Park Development Fees ($75,000.00); and (5) Ridgeview Park, Nos. 1 and 2 - Park Development Fees ($150,000.00). Mr. Riley explained that the design costs, construction costs, administration and contingency costs will be expended from Park Development Funds and will not have an impact on the General Fund. The total estimated costs for all five sites is approximately $493,000.00, which includes playground equipment and special surface material that meets American Disabilities Act of 1990 standards. There are sufficient funds in the respective In-lieu and Park Development Fund accounts to fund the additional expenditures. If Council approves the projects and authorizes staff to go to bid, construction could commence in July, with possible completion in the fall of 1992. The contractor would be responsible for a ninety-day maintenance period that would carry the project to 1993. It is anticipated that the Parks Department would then be responsible for the maintenance of the park sites, effective January 1, 1993. It would not be possible for the Parks Department to properly maintain the new park sites without additional equipment and personnel. A one-time cost of new equipment (mower, pick-up truck, and small tools) is approximately $44,500.00, and a temporary full-time employee and materials, at $12,000.00, would require an additional $56,000.00 in the Parks Department budget on January 1, 1993. The landscape architect has estimated that a private contractor could maintain the Neighborhood Park at an average cost of $35,000.00 annually. 25 06/16/92 It is the recommendation of both the Recreation and Parks Commission and staff that Council authorize staff to proceed with the project and authorize staff to go out to bid for the designed park sites with the intent of purchasing equipment and employing additional personnel on January 1, 1993 to properly maintain the new facilities. 26 06/16/92 In response to Council Member Arness, Mr. Riley indicated that the parks were in the process prior to the adoption of the Recreation and Park Plan which provides for larger parks. The majority of these park sites are now surrounded by homes, thereby, making it impossible to negotiate for additional park ground. From a maintenance standpoint, the parks have been designed to be relatively maintenance free, however, larger parks are preferred over the smaller neighborhood parks. Council Member Anderson stated that the City does not have the additional $56,000.00 which is required to purchase the equipment and provide the necessary personnel for maintenance. Council Member Kehoe stated he would be reticent of building parks without knowing where the City can obtain the necessary $56,000.00 to purchase the equipment and provide the necessary staffing. He related that there is no question that the City needs the parks; however, the City does not currently have the additional $56,000.00. Mr. Riley explained that the law requires that the in-lieu park fees be expended within five years for a particular project and each of these parks is on a different timeline. Council Member Kehoe requested that timeline information be provided on each park. Mayor Moss questioned if there is a real need for an additional pickup, a mower and small tools to maintain five new parks. Mr. Riley related that the equipment costs are one-time expenses and that the purchases would not be requested if the five subject parks were not built. MOTION: Made by Council Member Anderson, seconded by Council Member Kehoe, to table the item regarding the solicitation of bids for five neighborhood park sites until after adoption of the 1992-93 budget. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Kim Saito, 3540 Auburn Drive, and Sue Adams, 3359 Cutlass Court, both of the Indian Hills Subdivision, related that Council received a copy of their petition and are aware of their park situation. They indicated that contributions were made to the park fund when homes were purchased and do not see how the City cannot build this park when the need and the funds are available. They requested that Council approve the construction of this park. In response to Council Member Arness, Mr. Riley stated that there could be associated liability problems with residents maintaining the park sites. Mayor Moss requested that Ms. Saito and Ms. Adams be notified when this item is brought back before Council for consideration.
