WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS

A letter was received from Dan Greenwald, Chairman of the Shasta
3/7/83
1
64
County Commission on Aging, advising Council that the Commission
recently adopted a motion, directing that a letter be sent to the
Shasta County Board of Supervisors, proposing that a study be made by
that board as to the feasibility of acquiring property for a Senior
Multipurpose Center on a lease-purchase plan which would serve as a
nutrition center and other related senior requirements.
The Commission proposed that a committee be selected comprised of lit
persons from the County of Shasta, cities of Redding and Anderson, and
persons selected by a senior organization which is an independently
supported organization.
Councilman Kirkpatrick suggested that Council encourage the Board of
Supervisors to give their consideration to this request.
Council Members concurred with the above and it was suggested that the
two members appointed by the City to the Senior Citizens Facility
Advisory Committee also serve on the proposed committee. The Mayor
was authorized to write a letter to the Board of Supervisors
indicating interest in the study.
Communication from PGandE - re REACH Program
A letter was received from John Ulrich describing an energy assistance
program announced by PGandE to help residents of northern and central
California who have exhausted all other sources of assistance in
helping pay their energy bills. This program, which is administered
by the Salvation Army, is called REACH (Relief for Energy Assistance
through Community Help) . According to the letter, PGandE stockholders
have initiated the program with a fund of one million dollars contri-
buted to the Salvation Army, and have pledge another two million
dollars to match contributions from others on a dollar for dollar
basis.
Mr. Ulrich addressed Council at this time. He pointed out that this
program is unique in that it gives assistance to people who reside in
this area and it is not necessary to be PGandE customers to be eli-
gible. In addition to Council ' s support of this program, Mr. Ulrich
asked that the City ask its employees and customers to contribute to
the program.
Councilman Pugh thanked Mr. Ulrich for bringing the REACH program to
the Council 's attention and felt it is a good program. He noted that
a resolution has been prepared along with a memorandum from the City
Manager explaining the program. Mr. Pugh felt it is important to
encourage and promote the program as much as possible.

Letter from Shasta County Evangelical Ministerial Association - re •
Council Support of Letter to the Governor Requesting State-wide Day of
Prayer
City Clerk Nichols noted that several additional letters have been
received from residents of the City in support of this program.
Pastor Ed Brown spoke on behalf of the SCEMA' s request for Council 's
support of a letter to the Governor of California asking that a "State
Wide Day of Prayer" be declared, calling upon all citizens of good
will to pray for deliverance from these destructive storms and restore r3)'
normal agricultural seasons to our state.
Pastor Brown said that the fact that the SCEMA has been granted an
appointment to see the Governor on March 8, is an answer to prayer.
He emphasized that in as much as this is a nation under God, we need
to petition our Governor to support this action.
Mayor Gard stated that due to the Council 's policy on proclamations
and resolutions, this request is considered as an information item
only. She noted that she has discussed the City's position on this
matter with Mr. Brown.
Councilman Kirkpatrick said he concurs that it would not be appro-
priate for the City Council to take action on this request, but that
individual members could decide in their own minds whether they wish
to endorse the concept.

MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. MEMORIAL CENTER - Operating Lease Agreement and
Funding by the City of Redding
City Manager Courtney reviewed his memorandum to Council dated March 4,
1983, regarding the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Center operating lease
and funding by the City of Redding. He also referred to a letter from
Franklin Cibula who is a member of the Center' s Board of Directors.
Mr. Courtney advised that the audit of disbursements from City of Redding
funds paid to the Martin Luther King Center during the fiscal year ended '/pi./
June 30, 1982 , has not been completed. He explained that record keeping
has been grossly inadequate, and basic documents have been reported as
missing. Mr. Courtney noted that microfilm copies of missing checks have
been requested from Crocker National Bank and will be reviewed when
received.
Mr. Courtney stated that since September, monthly payments have been
withheld pending the proper authorization of the operating lease agreement
and the resolution of problems at the Center. He explained that fortun-
ately, able and dedicated persons have volunteered to serve on the Board of
3/7/83
68
Directors, and this new group is trying to get the Center back into proper
operation. He added that the operating lease agreement for September 1 ,
1982, to August 31 , 1983, has been executed by the new Board of Directors.
It is the recommendation of the City Manager that Council approve the
operating lease agreement, and authorize the City Manager to release
operating funds to the Martin Luther King Center when it has been estab-
lished that adequate financial controls have been installed.
In response to an inquiry from Councilman Kirkpatrick, Mr. Courtney acknow-
ledged that he felt all the necessary conformances are forthcoming. He
said that the new Board will be required to have signature cards on file at
the bank and precise procedures must be implemented before funds will be
released.
Councilman Fulton asked how this is different from past procedures. Mr.
Courtney advised that the City' s role has been much more distant in the
past and the Center has acted under the jurisdiction of those on the Board
of Directors. Mr. Courtney explained that funds will normally be paid
monthly, at $1900 per month; however, at the present time the City is
holding back payments from October 1982 through February 1983.
Franklin Cibula, 1743 Tehama, said he wished to assure the Council that the
new Board of Directors has not only made suggestions for improvements, but
intends to implement them. He said there is little that can be done finan-
cially until the facility receives reinstatement of funding. He emphasized
that there is no reason for the Board not to carry out the intent of the
City Council .
Mr. Johnson, thanked the City for reinstating funds. He said the Board has
taken measures to comply with all City requirements.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Fulton
approving the operating lease agreement, and authorizing the City Manager
to release operating funds to the Martin Luther King Center when it has
been established that adequate financial controls have been installed. The
Vote: Unanimous Ayes
REVISED NOISE ELEMENT - Redding General Plan
Planning and Community Development Director Perry submitted the draft
revision of the Noise Element of the Redding General Plan. He said, of the
nine State-mandated general plan elements, the scope of the Noise Element
is required to be the most specific in content and method of preparation.
Mr. Perry recalled that a draft revision of the Urban Expansion Element was
recently forwarded to the City Council . He noted that at this time, the
1 draft Noise and Urban Expansion Elements of the General Plan are undergoing
review by several public agencies for comment prior to beginning the public
hearing proceedings. Mr. Perry asked Council for any comments they may
have concerning either of the draft documents during the initial review
period.
No action was required on this matter.
PUBLIC HEARING - Development Agreement with Mervyn' s
Councilman Pugh abstained from voting and discussion on this matter. 111
The hour of 7:30 P.M. , having arrived, Mayor Gard opened the public
; hearing re the Development Agreement between the City of Redding and
;621
D Mervyn's.
r \ ld
3/7/83

The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk:
Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing
The City Clerk advised that no written protests have been received.
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his memo-
randum to Council dated March 1 , 1983 , which is hereby made a part of
these minutes by reference. He advised that the Planning Commission
recommended approval of a development agreement between Mervyn' s and
the City of Redding. He indicated that Council was previously given a
copy of the Environmental Impact Report EIR-3-79 and a copy of the
Assessment District Study for the Churn Creek Overcrossing.
Mr. Perry explained that a provision has been included in the agree-
ment
giving Mervyn's the option of deferring construction or withdraw-
ing from the agreement if a lawsuit is filed challenging either the
use permit or agreement. He advised that the Redding Redevelopment
Agency has authorized execution of the agreement by the Agency.
Mr. Perry stated that in recommending approval of the draft agreement,
the Planning Commission found that EIR-3-79 adequately addressed the
impact of the development agreement based on the six findings listed
in the staff report. The Commission also found that the provisions of
the agreement are in accordance with Section 301 of the City' s regula-
tions pertaining to development agreements.
Mr. Perry explained that a development agreement is essentially a
contract between the City Council and a land owner. In this case, he
noted, Mervyn' s is using the agreement to obtain assurances that for
the term of the agreement, the company, if it exercises its option,
can utilize the land as proposed and that the City will not levy
additional conditions or charges beyond the ceilings established by
the agreement. In exchange, Mervyn' s commits to constructing the
proposed building within a set time (in this case, ten years) , paying
fees or charges as identified in the use permit, and participating in
an assessment district to the extent agreed upon.
It is the recommendation of staff that Council approve the development
agreement subject to receipt of an executed copy of the agreement from
Mervyn's and Cypress Properties. It is further recommended that an
ordinance be offered for first reading and that Council ratify the
findings made by the Planning Commission with respect to environmental
review, general-plan consistency, and land-use regulations.
Leonard Bandell , representing Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company,
noted that with the concurrence of the City Attorney, Mr. Bandell 's
letter dated February 15 , 1983, and the transcripts of the Planning
Commission meeting of January 25, 1983, should be made a part of these
records. He contended that Council cannot ratify Finding No. 5 unless
it is certain that by approving this agreement, the overcrossing will
be constructed. Finding No. 5 states that approval of the agreement
will not adversely affect the orderly development of property or the
preservation of property values. Mr. Bandell pointed out that it has
been the Planning Commission's position that if the overcrossing is
not constructed, surrounding properties will have to be down-zoned
which he felt would have the effect of lowering property values. Mr.
Bandell also questioned the enforceability of the agreement and
suggested that the amounts owed by the developer be received as a lien
upon the property. He said there is no language stating how the City
will enforce its rights. Mr. Bandell also referenced Page 12, Para-
graph c of the agreement, and stated that it is not clear when the 1
extra contributions for the RRA's share of the overcrossing will be

made by the developer. He felt that Council should require some
clarification of the term "final judicial decision" .
John Hoffman, attorney representing Mervyn' s, stated he is responsible
for the drafting of the development agreement with the help of the
City Attorney and the Planning Director. He said he would be happy to
respond to any questions on the agreement.
Councilman Fulton asked Mr. Hoffman if he felt it would have an
adverse effect on the Mervyn's property, if the overcrossing is
determined to be unfeasible; and, would they go ahead with the project
without the overcrossing. Mr. Hoffman said Mervyn' s feels the project
is feasible even without the overcrossing. He noted that the agree-
ment is supportive of the overcrossing.
Councilman Kirkpatrick asked for Mr. Hoffman's opinion of the term
"final judicial decision" . Mr. Hoffman explained that it refers to
the litigation between the City and the County which is no longer
subject to appeal . In regard to Mr. Bandell 's question about placing
a lien on the property, Mr. Hoffman advised that Mervyn' s will be
required to pay all assessments before building permits are issued.
Mr. Bandell returned to the podium and noted that the agreement
F contains language which allows payment of the RRA's share to be made
after issuance of a building permit.
In response to an inquiry from Mayor Gard, City Attorney Hays advised
that placing a lien on the property could jeopardize financing and
possibly hamper the development of the project. He felt that the City
is well covered under this agreement and has reached an agreement that
is meaningful and allows the developer to proceed expeditiously.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Fulton, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick
that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes with
Councilman Pugh abstaining
Mayor Gard asked for the City Attorney' s comments pertaining to
Finding 5. Mr. Hays said it is his feeling that adoption of this
agreement aids in the construction of the overcrossing and would be a
plus toward accomplishing the goal of its development. He added that
it does not adversely affect the developer or the property.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Fulton
approving the development agreement between the City of Redding and
Mervyn' s/Cypress Properties, subject to receipt of an executed copy of
the agreement from Mervyn' s and Cypress Properties. The Vote:
Unanimous Ayes with Councilman Pugh abstaining
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Fulton
that Council finds that EIR-3-79 adequately addresses the impact of
the development agreement based on the following findings:
1 . The environmental effects of UP-200-82 and the development
agreement are similar enough to UP-237-78 to warrant the same
treatment in an EIR.
2. Provisions of the agreement are to implement mitigation measures
identified in EIR-3-79.
3. EIR-3-79 adequately covers the impacts of UP-200-82 and the
development agreement.

4. No new environmental impacts have been identified.
5. Substantial changes have not occurred with respect to the
circumstances for which EIR-3-79 was prepared.
Further, Council also finds that in accordance with Section 301 of the
City' s regulations pertaining to development agreements, that approval
of the agreement
(1 ) is consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses
and programs specified in the General Plan and any applicable
specific plan;
(2) is compatible with the uses authorized in, and the regulations
prescribed for, the land use district in which the real property
is located;
(3) is in conformity with public convenience, general welfare and
good land-use practice;
(4) will not be detrimental to the health, safety and general
welfare; and
(5) will not adversely affect the orderly development of property or
the preservation of property values.
The Vote: Unanimous Ayes with Councilman Pugh abstaining
Councilman Kirkpatrick offered Ordinance No. 1630 for first reading,
an ordinance of the City Council of the City of Redding adopting the
Mervyn' s development agreement pursuant to the procedures and
requirements established in Resolution No. 81-87.
CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - re Victor Avenue and Other Streets Sewer
Assessment District No. 1982-5
The hour of 7:30 P.M. , having arrived, Mayor Gard opened the public
hearing re Victor Avenue and Other Streets Sewer Assessment District
No. 1982-5.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk:
Affidavit of Posting - Notice of Continued Public Hearing
The City Clerk advised that no written protests have been received and
Mayor Gard ascertained that there were no protests from the floor.
Special Bond Counsel Sperry advised that construction bids for this (v
project were opened on February 15, 1983, and that the low bidder was
disqualified as not responsive. He concurs with that disqualifica-
tion. Mr. Sperry explained that the purpose of the continuation of
this public hearing was to allow the owners of two parcels to be added
to this assessment district. However, as of this morning, he said,
the consent and waivers have not been received from these property
owners and therefore have not been included. He added that in the
event that the waivers are received prior to April 4, the assessments
will be modified accordingly.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Fulton
that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes

PUBLIC HEARING - re General Plan Amendment Application GPA-1-83
The hour of 7:30 P.M. , having arrived, Mayor Gard opened the public
hearing re General Plan Amendment Application GPA-1-83, by W. Jaxon
Baker and the City of Redding.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk:
Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing
The City Clerk advised that no written protests have been received and
Mayor Gard ascertained that there were no protests from the floor.
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his memo-
randum to Council dated March 1 , 1983, which is incorporated herein by
reference. He stated that the Planning Commission has recommended
approval of GPA-1-83, by W. Jaxon Baker and the City of Redding, for
the area generally bordered by Caterpillar Road on the north, Highway
273 on the east, Lake Boulevard on the south, and the Southern Pacific
Railroad on the west. A map of the area was shown on the Vu Graph and
the draft negative declaration was submitted to Council . Mr. Perry
also submitted a letter from an affected property owner requesting an
alternate classification for her property.
Mr. Perry explained that the amendment proposal originated from a ) /1,›
adjacent
request by W. Jaxon Baker to subdivide 21 .5 acres located east of and
adjacent to the Mount Vista Subdivision. He said the present General
Plan classification of this property is "Greenway," inferring that the
slopes on the property would make it difficult to develop; however,
111 this is not the case. Mr. Perry indicated that the reason for this
discrepancy is the imprecise topographical data that was available at
the time of adoption of the 1970 General Plan.
Mr. Perry stated that the area is presently classified on the General
Plan as "Residential ," 3.5 units per acre, along Lake Boulevard;
"Industrial" in the area of the Mount Vista and Crestview Subdivi-
sions; and "Greenway" in the northeast corner and along Boulder Creek.
As proposed, the property would be classified as "Residential ," 2.0
units, 4.0 units, 6.0 units, 9.0 units and 12.0 units per acre;
"Retail Commercial " ; "General Industry" ; and "Greenway. " For the most
part, Mr. Perry said, the proposed General Plan classifications
reflect existing land uses and residential densities, a more refined
delineation of steep slopes and the channelization of Boulder Creek.
He advised that little of the area remains undeveloped, and added that
the proposal reflects a continuum of those classifications applied to
the adjacent property to the southeast by GPA-2-81 .
Mr. Perry indicated that the only area in contention after the Commis-
sion hearing pertains to property located immediately south of the
Crestview and Mount Vista Subdivisions at the south end of Beltline
Road. He said the property owner has requested that all of the
developable area of the property be classified at 6.0 units per acre,
rather than a portion 4.0 and a portion 6.0 units per acre, to allow
development of a mobilehome park. Mr. Perry explained that the
recommended 4.0 units per acre classification is based upon the
density of the adjacent subdivisions to the north. He said that both
the Commission and staff feel that the 4.0 units per acre classifica-
tion is appropriate based upon the existing density of the adjacent
property to the north and the natural buffer provided by the "Green-
way" between this density and the 6.0 units per acre classification.
Mr. Perry noted that the 6.0 units per acre classification would also •
3/7/83

74
create the potential for apartment development with primary access
through a single family residential area.
It is the recommendation of both the Commission and staff that the
area be reclassified as depicted on the map entitled "Proposed General
Plan." It is further recommended that the negative declaration be
approved, that the proposal be approved in concept, and that the City
Attorney be asked to prepare the necessary resolution for adoption in
April .
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Fulton
that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Fulton that
Council makes the following findings re General Plan Amendment
Application GPA-1-83:
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, ratifies the negative declaration approved by the Board of
Administrative Review on January 12 , 1983. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Fulton
approving General Plan Amendment Application GPA-1-83 in concept, and

PUBLIC HEARING - re Rezoning Application RZ-1-83, by City of Redding
The hour of 7:30 P.M. , having arrived, Mayor Gard opened the public
hearing re Rezoning Application RZ-1-83, by City of Redding.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk:
Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing
Planning Commission Recommendation dated March 1 , 1983
The City Clerk advised that no written protests have been received and
Mayor Gard ascertained that there were no protests from the floor.
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his
memorandum to Council dated March 1 , 1983. He stated that the
Planning Commission has recommended rezoning of property located
generally south of Hartnell Avenue, east of Interstate 5, and west of
School Street, from "U" Unclassified District to "R1-B10" Single
Family Residential and "RM-12" Multiple Family Residential Districts.
A map of the area was shown on the Vu Graph and a copy of the draft
negative declaration was submitted to Council .
It is the recommendation of both the Commission and staff that the
area be rezoned as illustrated on the map entitled, "Proposed Zoning" ,
that the negative declaration be ratified and that an ordinance be
offered for first reading.
3/7/83
75
Mr. Perry added that subsequent to the Commission's action, a letter
was submitted by George Theobald, owner of two lots on the east side
of School Street, requesting that they be classified as "Office."
Since this request was not reviewed by the Planning Commission and
would require a General Plan amendment, Mr. Perry recommended that the
lots be zoned "R-1" or the ordinance be amended to leave them zoned
"U" Unclassified.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Pugh
that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
Council discussed Mr. Theobald' s request and determined that even if
this request was recommended for approval by the Planning Commission,
the applicant would still need a General Plan Amendment for a
commercial use on the property. No action was taken on this request.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Fulton, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick
that Council makes the following findings re Rezoning Application
RZ-1-83, by City of Redding:
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, ratifies the negative declaration approved by the Board of
Administrative Review on January 19, 1983. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
MOTION: Made by Councilman Fulton, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick
approving the recommendation of the Planning Commission as hereinabove
stated re Rezoning Application RZ-1-83, by City of Redding. The Vote:
Unanimous Ayes
Councilman Fulton offered ordinance No. 1631 for first reading, an
ordinance of the City Council of the City of Redding amending Section
18.06.020 of the Redding Municipal Code relating to the rezoning of
certain real property in the City of Redding (RZ-1-83) .
PUBLIC HEARING - Planned Development Application Amendment Request,
PD-16-80
The hour of 7:30 P.M. , having arrived, Mayor Gard opened the public
hearing re Planned Development Application PD-16-80, by John Frank.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk.

Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing
Planning Commission recommendation dated March 1 , 1983 i
The City Clerk advised that no written protests have been received and
the Mayor ascertained that there were no protests from the floor.
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his
memorandum to Council dated March 1 , 1983. He stated that the
Planning Commission has recommended amendment of the approved site
plan for PD-16-80, granting John Frank permission to construct a 107
unit planned development on property located west of Masonic Avenue,
A
3/7/83
76
south of Buckeye Terrace and east of the Southern Pacific Railroad. A
map of the area was shown on the Vu Graph.
Mr. Perry explained that basically, the amendment request involves a
relocation of the tennis courts, the addition of racketball courts,
reorientation of the recreation facilities and the RV parking area,
and clustering the dwelling units to reduce the amount of grading and
private street construction. It is the opinion of the staff and the
Planning Commission that the proposed changes enhance the project.
It is the recommendation of the Planning Commission and staff that the
Council approve the amendment to the site plan subject to the 44
original conditions , with a new Exhibit "A" and modification of
Condition No. 34 as follows:
(34) At the time of Final Plan Review, the location(s) of the RV
parking is/are to be approved based on detailed engineering data
with adequate provision for prevention of soil erosion through
landscaping. The slope of the storage area on the angle along
which a parked vehicle could roll shall not exceed five percent.
It is further recommended that the City Attorney be instructed to
prepare an amending ordinance for consideration at the next regular
Council meeting.
Mayor Gard expressed some concern about slippage near the location of
the RV parking. Public Works Director Arness said he does not see a
problem and is comfortable with the grading requirements.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick
that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick

pertaining to Planned Development Amendment PD-16-80, by John Frank,

PUBLIC HEARING - re Proposed Change in Residential Solid Waste Collection
The hour of 7:30 P.M. , having arrived, Mayor Gard opened the public
hearing re proposed changes in residential solid •waste collection
procedures.
A copy of the display ad is on file in the office of the City Clerk.
the City Clerk advised that protest letters were received from H. T.
Barnard, The American Association of Retired Persons, Walter Johnson,
Carol Whetstone, S. "Dag" and Norma Seeley, and Mary Pettigrew.
City Manager Courtney reviewed the reasons for the proposed change in
residential service to one collection per week. Mr. Courtney advised
that the reduction in personnel cost is an integral part of the
planning for the 1983-84 budget. He said this plan will reduce
General Fund net cost in 1983-84 by approximately $ 100,000 and permit
more efficient scheduling of personnel and equipment. Mr. Courtney
indicated that by September, it appears that only one full time
employee would have to be released, and possibly some temporary or
probationary employees.
3/7/83
77
In response to an inquiry from Mayor Gard, Mr. Courtney estimated that
possibly a total of six employees will be displaced, some of which are
temporary. He said that it is anticipated that there will be two
positions in the Public Works Field Division that will be filled by
two people from the Sanitation Division, which will permit two of the
six to remain in Sanitation.
He said consideration was also given to fuel conservation and equip-
- ment conservation. Mr. Courtney also explained that it has been the
custom of the industry to collect solid waste on a frequency of once
per week and most operators collect only one 30-gallon can once per
week for a basic rate that is more than that charged by the City of
Redding.
Mr. Courtney also emphasized that in California, the installation of
garbage disposal units in new residences has become common practice.
He noted that Redding was slow to adopt the use of this devise because
of sewer system deficiencies , but most new residential construction
during the past 20 years has included the garbage disposal unit as an
appliance. Another devise discussed by Mr. Courtney was the use of
plastic disposal bags. He said they are readily available at
reasonable cost and their use along with containers with properly
fitting lids, should be virtually fly, rodent, and odor proof.
Mr. Courtney concluded by saying that if this change can be made
before May 1983, it will be possible to prevent the abrupt lay off of
some of the displaced employees by assigning them to the work which
would have otherwise been performed by temporary seasonal employees.
He noted that this is an additional saving to the General Fund which
is under severe financial pressure this fiscal year, and will be a
major problem in developing a balanced budget for 1983-84. He
stressed that no changes are proposed at this time for commercial
service, location of pickups, yard refuge pickups , or quantity of
cans.
Mr. Courtney emphasized that if the proposed change is approved, the
City of Redding will still be providing a solid waste collection
service superior in quantity and price compared to nearly all cities
in the State of California.
Mr. Henry Trask, 1429 Ridge Drive, said the newspaper article about
the proposed change in trash collection does not say how much the
present service is costing or how much the equipment costs. He felt
the information to the public has been inadequate. He questioned how
much wear and tear would be saved on equipment if the trucks have to
make two trips to pick up twice as much trash. Mr. Trask noted that
if the City is losing money on this service now, it must have been
losing money for many years. He said the City should be proud to have
twice per week pickup and he would be willing to pay more per month to
continue the service. Mr. Trask felt this is a step backward not
forward.
Mr. Buel Hunt, 2058 Sonoma, represented the American Association of
Retired Persons. Mr. Hunt said he has lived in the City for over 30
years. He said that some people over 50 have a problem handling
garbage cans. He stated he cannot see how this reduction in service
will cut down on the amount of garbage.
Howard Fritz, 2475 Waldon, said he is also a member of the A.A.R.P.
He felt the City is not placing the emphasis on sanitary matters. He
urged the Council to give serious consideration to the public welfare

a
i•
of Redding before making a decision. He said he agrees with Mr.
F Trask.
J. D. Martz, 2152 Sonoma, J. D. Martz, said he is in agreement with
all the concerns that have been stated. He added that the hot summers
will add to the sanitary problems. He would like to see the twice a
week collection continued.
Pavetra Krimmel , emphasized that people are going to have to find ways
to reduce their waste. She suggested that information be included in `<
utility bills explaining how to reduce waste.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Pugh
that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
Public Works Director Arness stated that from the very beginning,
staff has suggested that there be exceptions for people who really do
have a problem getting their cans within the 40 ft. limit from the
street. He said there are presently about 30 to 32 such exceptions
being made. Mr. Arness said that budget figures given to Council
indicated that the Sanitation budget is about $1 ,800,000. In response
to the question regarding increased amounts of trash, Mr. Arness
explained that trucks will be handling heavier loads per unit.
Councilman Kirkpatrick noted that the cost of commercial garbage
collection is $11 for two cans, twice per week. He said that
increases in fees have been few and far between for residential
pickup.
Councilman Fulton questioned the holiday pickup schedule. Mr. Arness
advised that the procedure will be the same and that trash will be
picked up the day following a City holiday. He said staff relies
heavily on ads in the newspaper, on radio and T.V. to notify the
public of schedules. Mr. Arness indicated that this program can be
increased if necessary.
Mayor Gard said she has some real concerns about the location of the
cans. She noted that, today was garbage day in her neighborhood and
the trash was not picked up, and at times like these dogs overturn the
cans. She felt that the 40 foot location is unfavorable from an
aesthetic standpoint.
Councilman Fulton suggested a compromise which would provide twice per
week pickup in the summer months. Councilman Pugh noted that when he
lived in Enterprise before it was annexed to the City, once per week
trash pickup did not cause problems. Mr. Pugh said he has given this
matter a lot of consideration. He stressed that over the years , the
City has been forced to increase costs for basic services because of
increasing needs, and this is one of the few areas that the City can
provide an acceptable level of service without increasing the cost.
He emphasized that while it is nice to have twice per week pickup, he
does not feel it outweighs the cost factor. Mr. Pugh also noted that
with the twice per week pickup, one day per week Sanitation Department
employees are working in other departments, which increases the cost
factor in the General Fund. He said this change will produce a net
savings across the board and will allow the City to provide adequate
service without increasing the cost. He also said that it will help
offset the cost of a new landfill site. He emphasized that the City 1
must find areas where it can provide basic services which can be borne
by the public. He felt that maintaining the present fee schedule
outweighs the inconvenience of once per week pickup.

REOPENING OF RESTAURANT
Airports Manager Woodrum briefed Council about the reopening of the
Municipal Airport Restaurant. He said that since the restaurant was closed ••
on January 21 , 1983 , he and Mr. Homan have shown the restaurant to 14
prospective restauranteurs. He indicated that they have also made contacts
with franchise food chains such as the Red Baron to determine their inter-
est; and, the terms of the lease and possible modifications have been made
available with each inquiry.
Mr. Woodrum advised that letters have been sent to each person or firm who
submitted inquiries, asking them to furnish all of the information required
1 ) S
under Resolution No. 2978 along with a narrative outlining their restaurant
experience plus a statement regarding what changes they might wish to make
at their own expense, including modifications and decor.
It is the recommendation of the Airports Manager that a committee be
appointed to review these applications to determine if a satisfactory
concessionaire can be selected or if we should seek further.
Councilman Fulton asked if the bankruptcy litigation is blocking any future
situations for the restaurant. City Attorney Hays advised that it is not
and that all the basic equipment belongs to the City.
Mayor Gard said with the concurrence of Council , she will appoint City
Manager Courtney, Councilman Demsher, Airports Manager Woodrum, Assistant
Airports Manager Homan, and a representative from the Airports Commission
to a committee to review restauranteur applications. Mayor Gard indicated
that if Mr. Demsher is unable, she will serve on the committee.
STATUS OF AIRLINE SERVICE
Airports Manager Woodrum reviewed his memorandum to Council dated March 3,
1983, which is hereby made a part of these minutes by reference. He stated
that after Republic's announcement of departure from the Redding market, he
met with travel agencies to discuss ideas as to what was needed with
respect to departure schedules. He also asked that they elect a represen-
tative to accompany whatever committee was appointed to discuss the Redding
market with prospective replacement airlines. Mr. Dennis Stark was so
elected.
Mr. Woodrum advised that Pacific Express contacted him and asked for a I/
meeting. At that meeting, Mr. Woodrum explained, Pacific Express said they
would begin a review of the figures and advise as soon as possible what
their intentions would be. He also noted that Western has advised that
they may reconsider service to Redding in August or September. Additional
information has been sent to them. Mr. Woodrum advised that similar data
was sent to PSA, Air-Cal , and United, as well as Pacific Express and
Western. Air-Cal and PSA have already indicated that they were not inter-
ested and United Airlines may consider local service.
Mr. Woodrum reported that Pacific Express has been very receptive and
11/ several of their officials have visited the airport on difference occa-
sions. They have indicated unofficially, that they would like to provide
service to Redding. Mr. Woodrum pointed out that managers of other air-
ports served by Pacific Express have indicated that Pacific's service is
excellent, and this information was supported by people from the Civil
Aeronautics Board.
3/7/83

Mr. Woodrum stated that Republic Airlines requested a waiver of the 90-day
waiting period. This waiver has been protested by the City and Mr. Woodrum
indicated that the CAB has advised that this waiver probably would not be
granted and Republic would probably be required to stay the full 90 days.
This means that the earliest Republic would depart if Horizon is named as
minimum essential air carrier would be about May 8. He noted however, that
in view of the City' s protest, staff does not know at this time what action
either Republic or Horizon will take. Mr. Woodrum added that if Republic
does not provide a carrier acceptable to the Civil Aeronautics Board as
minimum essential air service, then Republic will remain indefinitely until
a suitable carrier is accepted.
No action was required on this matter.
