AGREEMENT WITH WESTERN AREA POWER ADMINISTRATION - re Keswick Switchyard Metering Error (E-120-900 and E-120-070-350) Electric Director Lindley reviewed his memorandum to Council dated November 15, 1984, which is incorporated herein by reference. He stated that early in 1984, the Western Area Power Administration became aware of a suspected error in the metering of power delivered by Western to the City of Redding. He said it was later determined that the City was definitely under-billed in the amount of $644,208. Mr. Lindley explained that Western agreed to offset the metering error against the monies owed to the City by Western for the monies the City advanced to Western to construct facilities at Keswick Switchyard. It is the recommendation of staff that Council approve Supplement No. 4 to Contract No. DE-MS65-83WP-59008 with the Western Area Power Administration to reflect the above-described change, and that the Mayor be authorized to sign. MOTION: Made by Council Member Pugh, seconded by Council Member Demsher approving Supplement No. 4 to Contract No. DE-MS65-83WP59008, with the Western Area Power Administration, and authorizing the Mayor to sign. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes RESOLUTION - re Change in Participation Percentage and Membership of the Transmission Agency of Northern California (TANC) (E-120-250) Electric Director Lindley reviewed his memorandum to Council dated November 15, 1984, which is incorporated herein by reference. He stated that since Council ' s original approval of Redding' s participation in the TANC Joint Powers Agency, events have occurred which require further Council action. Mr. Lindley explained that TANC representatives have continued to negotiate with other California public and investor-owned utility representatives with regard to a final Memorandum of Understanding for the proposed 500 KV Northwest Transmission Project. He said, during final phases of negotia- tions, in order to come to an equitable settlement, it was necessary to reduce TANC' s overall interest in the project to approximately 700 mega- watts and restrict the percentage share of the Sacramento Municipal Utility District, one of the TANC members. Mr. Lindley noted that this action requires a reallocation of the Agency' s percentage shares. It is the recommendation of staff that Council approve participation by the City in the TANC Joint Powers Agency for a percentage not to exceed 17.5%, and adopt a resolution providing for changes in membership in the Agency. It is further recommended that the Mayor be authorized to execute a new, modified, or amended TANC agreement, subject to the City Attorney's ap- proval as to form. 11/19/84 329 MOTION: Made by Council Member Gard, seconded by Council Member Fulton that Resolution No. 84-257 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding providing for the approval of the Joint Powers Agree- ment of the Transmission Agency of Northern California.

TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAPS - S-10-84, Los Arboles, and S-13-84, by Quail Ridge, Unit lA *(5-100-443 and S-100-607) Council was advised that the Planning Commission has granted permission to subdivide property described as Tentative Subdivision Map S-10-84, Los Arboles, by Jim Graves. A map of the area was shown on the Vu Graph. Council was also advised that the Planning Commission has granted permis- sion to subdivide property described as Tentative Subdivision Map S-13-84, Quail Ridge, Unit 1A, by Jaxon Baker. A map of the area was shown on the Vu Graph. This was an information item and no action was required by Council . AGREEMENT WITH COMPUTRAN - re Needs Assessment Pertaining to New Cable T.V. Regulations (T-040-050) Planning and Community Development Director Perry stated that as a product of the last session of Congress, legislation was passed which makes several important changes to the City' s cable franchising authority. He summarized those laws. Mr. Perry explained that it appears the renewal provisions would not apply to any franchise scheduled to expire within 30 months following the effec- tive date of the legislation; however, staff believes that even though Redding is grandfathered, it would be advisable to conduct a "needs study" to determine cable-related needs and to assess the operator' s proposal in this area. He outlined the advantages of this study. It is the recommendation of staff that Council approve an agreement with Computran Systems Corporation, in the amount of $10,500, to conduct a needs assessment for the City' s cable-related needs. MOTION: Made by Council Member Fulton, seconded by Council Member Gard approving an agreement between Computran Systems Corporation and the City of Redding, in the amount of $10,500, to perform a needs assessment on behalf of the City of Redding, and authorizing the City Manager to execute the document. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes SUBMISSION OF PROPOSAL FOR BID OFFER - FAA Flight Service Station (A-090-100) Planning and Community Development Director Perry explained that in Novem- ber of 1983, the Federal Aviation Administration solicited offers for providing leased space for an automated flight-service station to be located somewhere between Visalia and the Oregon border. He said staff submitted an initial bid offer to the FAA of $12 per square foot. In updating these figures, Van Dyke Construction felt the original building cost estimate was still valid if not high, given current building materials costs. 11/19/84 330 Mr. Perry stated that the FAA has requested that the City submit a "best and final" offer by November 30, 1984, and that the offer be extended through March 29, 1985. He outlined the perceived benefits from having the service station at Redding Municipal Airport. Mr. Perry explained that the main drawback of entering into a contractual relationship (lease) at this time is the unknown financing cost. He said it is assumed that the City will be able to finance the project through the issuance of tax-exempt industrial revenue bonds for a 20-year period at 11%; however, there is no assurance that this type of financing will be available. Mr. Perry listed the options available to the City and advised that if Council desires to pursue the project, staff will submit the City' s final offer to FAA. Discussion ensued regarding different types of financing possibilities and it was generally felt that financing could be obtained for the project. Council Member Demsher said if the City approves the project conceptually, it can always withdraw if financing cannot be obtained. Councilman Pugh noted that if the FAA accepts the City' s offer, the City is bound to proceed. The City Attorney concurred. Mr. Pugh felt the offer should contain a projection clause. MOTION: Made by Council Member Demsher, seconded by Council Member Gard to maintain the City' s offer to the FAA at the current $12 per square foot per year for a flight service station at Redding Municipal Airport, subject to staff including an historical construction cost index factor to reflect projected increased costs. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - re Lake Keswick Sewer Assessment District No. 1982-6 (A-170-100-330) The hour of 7:30 P.M. , having arrived, Mayor Kirkpatrick opened the continued public hearing re Lake Keswick Sewer Assessment District No. 1982-6.

Resolution - Continuing Public Hearing MOTION: Made by Council Member Demsher, seconded by Council Member Pugh that Resolution No. 84-258 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding continuing hearing and consideration of all matters for Lake Keswick Sewer Assessment District No. 1982-6, to 7:30 P.M. , December 3, 1984. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Demsher, Fulton, Gard, Pugh, and Kirkpatrick Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - None Resolution No. 84-258 is on file in the office of the City Clerk. 11/19/84 331 PUBLIC HEARING - re Appeal of Approval of Use Permit Application UP-254-84 (L-010-030) The hour of 7:30 P.M. , having arrived, Mayor Kirkpatrick opened the public hearing re appeal of approval of Use Permit Application UP-254-84. 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 The City Clerk advised that no written protests have been received. Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his memo- randum to Council dated November 15, 1984, which is incorporated herein by reference. He stated that the Planning Commission approved Use Permit UP-254-84, granting the East Enterprise Congregation of Jehovah' s Witnesses permission to construct a church on property located at 3055 Alta Mesa Drive in an R1-B20 Single Family Residential District. A letter was received from D. McKillup appealing the decision. Mr. Perry explained that the letter appealing the use permit and testimony at the public hearing identified several concerns as the basis for opposing the project as follows: 1 . Increase in traffic and congestion. 2. Increase in ambient noise level . 3. Increased auto emissions. 4. Parking problems. 5. Safety factors (Walkers, bicyclists, etc. ) . 6. Proximity to single-family homes. 7. Zoning consistency. It is the opinion of the Planning Commission and staff that, while the neighborhood concerns are valid issues , the church project will not have impacts significant enough to warrant denial of the use permit. Dennis McKillop, 3120 Alta Mesa, said the traffic studies do not take into consideration Bible studies and other meetings. He also noted that there is no room to grow and there is insufficient parking. Mark Vanderbeck, 3132 Alta Mesa, felt the single best use for this property is two single family homes. He objected to the increase in traffic on Alta Mesa and noted that the extension of Victor Avenue has not relieved traffic. Council Member Gard suggested that traffic counts be taken on Alta Mesa on Sundays. Paul Ison, 3171 Alta Mesa, said traffic on Alta Mesa is backed up several blocks every Sunday morning as it is now. He did not feel that Victor Avenue has helped the situation very much. Mr. Ison also pointed out that there is a drainage problem in the front of his home and this could only become worse if a church is constructed. He favored single family homes on the property. Bob Hartsen, representing the congregation, said they keep their congregations limited in size and do not expect to outgrow this facility. He felt their plan provides adequate parking. He noted that approximately 70% of their congregation will be traveling from 11/19/84 332 the north and using Hartnell Avenue. Mr. Hartsen also noted that the times they will be using their facility will be when traffic is less. Berle Maddox, 3076 Alta Mesa, said he lives directly across from the proposed church and there are times when he cannot get out of his driveway now. He said Victor Avenue has not helped much. Lana Ferrara, 2405 Marilyn, said people will be parking on Marilyn which is a very narrow street with a flooding problem. She said if cars are parked on both sides of the street, one cannot get through. MOTION: Made by Council Member Pugh, seconded by Council Member Demsher that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes Council Member Pugh said he has some serious concerns with the impact of this project on the Hartnell and Alta Mesa intersection and would like to see the property remain residential . Council Member Demsher concurred that there is a traffic problem out there now and he doesn't feel it would show good judgment to con- tribute to a problem that is already serious. Council Member Gard agreed that this is an area that is impacted and narrow, and on-street parking is a problem. She felt it would be unappropriate to add to the existing burden on the street. Mayor Kirkpatrick noted that Victor Avenue has not been completed yet and a 4-way stop at Hartnell and Victor has been approved earlier this evening which should alleviate some of the problem. MOTION: Made by Council Member Demsher, seconded by Council Member Gard that the appeal of Use Permit UP-254-84, be upheld and that the Use Permit be denied. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Demsher, Fulton, Gard, and Pugh Noes: Council Members - Kirkpatrick Absent: Council Members - None PUBLIC HEARING - re Rezoning Application RZ-12-84, by City of Redding (L-010-230) The hour of 7:30 P.M. , having arrived, Mayor Kirkpatrick opened the public hearing re Rezoning Application RZ-12-84, by City of Redding. 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 November 15, 1984 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 memo- randum to Council dated November 15, 1984. He stated that the Plan- ning Commission has unanimously recommended amendment of the rezoning of Jennifer Manor Subdivision to permit mobilehomes on all lots. Previously, a recommendation had been submitted for mobilehome zoning on only a portion of the lots. Mr. Perry explained that as part of development of the site, grading plans were approved and grading was accomplished which makes the 11/19/84 333 restriction on "ST" zoning, as a function of topography, invalid. Accordingly, it is recommended that all of the single-family areas be zoned "R1-ST" with the "U-F" areas reconciled to toe of slope rather than occurring on any banks created by fill . It is the recommendation of Planning Commission and staff that the recommendation be approved and that the City Attorney be instructed to prepare an ordinance following receipt of a final map. Ed Hammond, 809 August Way, said he was concerned about the multiple zoning. Mr. Perry explained that the request is for mobilehome zoning, not multiple zoning. MOTION: Made by Council Member Demsher, seconded by Council Member Pugh that the public hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes MOTION: Made by Council Member Pugh, seconded by Council Member Demsher that Council make the following findings relative to Rezoning Application RZ-12-84, 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 July 18, 1984.

A map of the area was shown on the Vu Graph. It is the recommendation of staff that the Planning Commission recom- mendation be approved, that the two surplus parcels be referred to the City Attorney for disposition, and that the City Attorney be author- ized to prepare a resolution for the vacated area. Joe Silveira, applicant, stated the reason for the requested abandon- ment is to clean up Calaboose Creek. He said the property is an eye sore and it is hoped that it will be cleaned up.
