between Shasta and Sacramento Streets on Friday, September 21 , between
6 P.M. and 8:30 P.M. to conduct this event.
Council Member Gard asked about permission from CalTrans, and what
effect this might have on the City bus service.
Public Works Director Arness advised that they would be required to
obtain the necessary permits from CalTrans. He also explained that
the City is not in a position to furnish the labor for pre-signing or
the signs necessary for this event. Mr. Arness noted that the City
would make available any spare signs to them, but they would have to
provide the remainder of the signs and the labor to install them.
Mr. Arness stated that the R.A.B.A. service is a minor problem and is
manageable. The main concern, he said is that cars parked on-street
don' t get trapped there.
Council Member Demsher pointed out that this is the second year for
this event and it is their goal to have a major bicycle race in
Redding within the next four to five years. He emphasized that
community support is essential to the success of this effort. Mr.
Demsher commented that bicycling is the fastest growing sport in
America and it could be a real benefit to Redding to capitalize on
that fact.
Council Member Gard concurred that this is the kind of event that a
community can capitalize on which is both fun for the public and an
economic benefit.
Mr. Jeff Roake, Director of Vulcan Tour, addressed Council at this
time. He explained that they have planned five races during this
four-day event. Mr. Roake stated he has been in contact with CalTrans
and they are anxious to hear from the City Council . He indicated that
the total closure would be for about two hours between 6:00 P.M. , and
8:00 P.M.
Mayor Kirkpatrick commented that it appears the Downtown Mall parking
lots will still have access to get out.

ment and they have made sure that access to and from the Downtown Mall
will remain open.

training as a free public service to the citizens of Redding, September
19-22, 1984.

APPOINTMENT - Shasta County Commission on Aging
(B-080-470)
Mayor Kirkpatrick said that some time ago Olive Young appeared before
8/20/84
235
Council to request that a City representative be appointed to the Shasta
County Commission on Aging. He advised that Parks and Recreation Director
Riley has reviewed the request and recommends that a staff member be
appointed as a liaison or member to this commission.
Mayor Kirkpatrick stated that it is his recommendation that Parks and
Recreation Director Riley be appointed to the Shasta County Commission on
Aging, and that Dorsa Rogers be appointed as the alternate.
Council Member Gard said it was her recommendation that since the Parks and
Recreation Commission is required to have two members on the Senior Citi-
zens Advisory Commission, it would be appropriate to have one of those
members the designated representative to the Commission on Aging. She felt
it is important to have a "policy" person rather than a staff person.
Mayor Kirkpatrick stated that his reasoning was that Mr. Riley is familiar
with the City of Redding, and since this is a new area, he felt it would be
appropriate that the main representative be a staff member.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Demsher, seconded by Council Member Fulton
approving the appointment of Tom Riley as the City' s designated representa-
tive to the Shasta County Commission on Aging, and that Dorsa Rogers be
appointed as the alternate. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes with Council Member

SCHOOL IMPACT FEE GUIDELINES
(L-010-170)
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his memorandum
to Council dated August 9, 1984. He submitted a draft of a letter to
school districts in the City to establish guidelines for the review and
consideration of findings of overcrowding prior to next year and to provide
this information to the school districts in advance of their submittals.

Mr. Perry explained that these policies are not recommended to be incor-
porated into the City Code, rather they are to be administrative policies
in order to maintain flexibility. He said the basis for drafting the
guidelines is the requirement in Government Code Section 65971 that the
City Council must review and concur in the findings of the school district
prior to the imposition of school impact fees. Mr. Perry stated that it is
hoped that information provided in accordance with these guidelines will
clearly indicate whether or not a school district is or will be over-
crowded.
It is recommended that the guidelines be adopted and forwarded to the
school districts.
In response to a question from Council Member Gard, Mr. Perry advised that
it is recommended that these fees be collected at the time the building
permit is issued. Mr. Perry felt that it would be simpler, administra-
tively, to accept these fees at the building permit stage, than at the time
the occupancy permit is issued.
Council Member Gard noted that some fees are collected at the time of
occupancy. Council Member Pugh pointed out that he sees no difference in
the administrative process whether fees are accepted at the building permit
stage or the occupancy stage.
Public Works Director Arness commented that the City hopes to give all
costs to the prospective buyer, up-front, so that they can take the total
cost to the lending institution.
Mr. Perry pointed out that when the building permit is issued is when the
school district needs to plan on the impact.
Council Member Demsher emphasized that it is his feeling that these fees
should be accepted at the time the building permit is issued. He said
doing this up-front seems to be the most logical way to handle it. Mr.
Demsher stressed that this has to be addressed in a broad sense and it must
be realized that it is everyone' s obligation to educate children and the
fees will never completely address the impact.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Fulton, seconded by Council Member Demsher
that the school impact fee guidelines as submitted by Planning and Com-
munity Development Director Perry be adopted and that the guidelines be
forwarded to the school districts. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
