RECOMMENDATION - re Possession and Consumption of Alcohol in
City of Redding Parks
City Manager Brickwood reviewed his memo to Council dated
April 16, 1980, in which he stated Council is aware of the pro-
blems the City has been experiencing in Lake Redding and Cald-
well Parks . Redding is the hub City for nine northern California
counties and historically, Lake Redding and Caldwell Parks
L, have been the gathering point for the young people in this
✓Z community and outlying areas . The congregation is primarily
on weekends and as part of the socialization process, alcohol
is consumed. It is evident that this is a catalyst that
triggers the majority of the problems . These problems are
identified as harassment of other park users , the use of obscene
language and gestures , fighting, littering, breaking of bottles ,
vandalism and quite often physical resistance to arrest.
Mr. Brickwood states he believes we have reached the point where
corrective action must be taken and readily admits that there
is no one solution to this situation. Therefore, staff is
recommending adoption of an ordinance prohibiting the posses-
sion and consumption of alcoholic beverages in Lake Redding,
Caldwell, Turtle Bay, and Turtle Bay East Parks , and the Civic
Auditorium area. It is also recommended that the use of alco-
holic beverages be permitted in certain designated locations
by a permit approved by the City Council. This will be elabo-
rated on in the ordinance, if approved. A memo to Councilman
Demsher, dated March 10, 1980 , was distributed to Council
which contained additional information regarding the activities
in the abovementioned parks .
Mr. Brickwood concluded that if Council concurs with the staff
recommendation, the City Attorney should be instructed to
4/21/80
143
prepare an ordinance for submission to Council at its May 5 ,
1980 meeting.
Councilwoman Gard expressed concern that if South City Park
were not included in the proposed ordinance, it would become
the new gathering point.
Mr. Brickwood responded that South City Park was not included
because of the one-way entrance and one-way exit, and because
there has never been a problem there before, noting that staff
did not want to include anything that was not experiencing
problems.
Councilman Demsher pointed out that the City has watched this
situation each year and each year it has been a problem.
Mr. Demsher is receiving more and more calls from citizens
regarding the fact that the parks are one of the City 's biggest
assets but undesirable groups have precluded others from using
them. Mr. Demsher stressed the need for positive action in
order to give the Police Department the power to enforce the
drinking problem in the park as well as the excessive littering.
Councilwoman Gard remarked that when she was on the Parks and
Recreation Commission, the Commission was greatly concerned
that these activities were precluding the use of the parks by
family groups. She also noted that there has been a tremendous
effect on the City ' s Museum which is in the center of Caldwell
Park; therefore, one of the City' s finest assets is not being
used to its full potential.
Mr. Brickwood noted that the proposed ordinance would not
be a cure-all but feels it is a step in the right direction.
He added that the first nice weather we had this spring
there were a tremendous amount of problems in the park.
Councilwoman Gard suggested the possibility of allowing beer
and wine in Lake Redding Park and banning it in Caldwell, or
to exclude parking in the parks .
Mr. Brickwood replied that if this were done, the horse shoe
pits would have to be moved and may cause more problems near
the Senior Citizen ' s Building and golf course because a large
number of people would be congregating in a small area.
Councilman Kirkpatrick expressed that he had been against
banning drinking in the parks as it would infringe on the
rights of the people not causing problems; however, since
spending several hours riding with the Police Department
in these areas, and seeing the same cars and the same people
causing the problems repeatedly, he is now in favor of banning
the use of alcoholic beverages in the parks .
Councilman Fulton inquired of Mr. Brickwood, what other ideas
had been contemplated. Mr. Brickwood stated staff has con-
sidered
placing barricades at the trestle to block movement
between Lake Redding and Caldwell Parks, but that would also
block Police movement and maintenance people. He indicated
staff is studying ways of alleviating traffic problems in
that location; however, the consumption of alcohol is the
real problem.
4/21/80
144
Councilman Demsher proposed that the City needs to do two
things: Control the drinking problem, and create an environment
in the park in which most people would feel comfortable . He
felt eliminating the drinking is the first step. He stated
the problems during the day get progressively more difficult
when the consumption of alcohol has increased.
Mrs . Gard indicated she feels a great sense of frustration.
The parks are one of the best assets the City has and our
citizens feel very uncomfortable there. We owe the community
the use of what is available.
Mr. Brickwood stated he had resisted the ban on alcohol for
a long period of time but after seeing what was occurring
last year and then again this year, he believes this is
a step in the right direction.
Councilman Pugh felt the problem will be solved with the con-
struction of the road through, and the changes in the parking
areas within Lake Redding and Caldwell Parks . He stated the
activities of a few, during early spring until the first part
of June, do not justify taking away this right from every-
one, for all time. He favored complete curtailment of
traffic through the park by way of Benton Drive and recommended
that Rio Drive be used only for the use of the boat ramp, as
another possible solution. He remarked that he has received
many phone calls from people who are opposed to the ban of
alcoholic beverages in City Parks .
Mrs . Gard stated she did not feel this was a seasonal problem,
but a constant one. She agreed the intensity is greater in
the spring but on visit to the Museum last January, Mrs . Gard
r
states the parkinglot area caused her to be very uncomfortable .
MOTION: Made by Councilwoman Gard, seconded by Councilman
Demsher that the staff recommendation be approved as outlined
above and that the City Attorney be instructed to prepare an
ordinance prohibiting the possession and consumption of al-
coholic beverages in Lake Redding, Caldwell, Turtle Bay
and Turtle Bay East, and the Civic Auditorium area, with a
provision for permitted use, forfirst reading at the City
Council Meeting of May 5, 1980.

DISPOSAL OF SURPLUS PROPERTIES - Former Cascade Fire Hall
and Old Fire Station No. 2 , 1900 Placer Street
City Manager Brickwood reviewed his memo to Council dated
April 17, 1980. He stated the status of the above properties
was reviewed by the Planning Commission at its meeting of
August 28 , 1979 . It was determined that they are not needed
0V for any City function and could be disposed of as surplus .
It is the recommendation of the Ways and Means Committee , who
have historically acted as the Surplus Property Committee ,
that the above properties be transferred to Shasta County
4/21/80
145
without charge. This can be considered a good-will gesture
and perhaps may help to solve some of the County ' s problems
in regard to parking and office space which will be created
by the construction of the new Jail and Justice Center.
The Committee also recommends that certain restrictions be
placed in the deed for disposal of Old Fire Station No. 2
as follows:
If the County ceases to use the property for a public
purpose or wishes to dispose of the property, then
the land and improvements will revert to the City of
Redding. The use of the Fire Station site must remain
in the parking or office-use classification or similar
type of use. The usage must remain compatible with the
general neighborhood.
The former Cascade Fire Station was constructed on land leased
from Shasta County for a period of 40 years . It is assumed
that if the City cancels the lease, the building would auto-
matically revert to Shasta County.
If Council concurs with the recommendation,, the City Attorney
should be instructed to prepare the necessary documents for
submission to Council at its regular meeting of May 5 , 1980 .
In response to an inquiry from Mrs. Gard, regarding who
determines what uses are compatible with the neighborhood,
City Attorney Hays suggested that the last sentence of the
deed restrictions , which states "The usage must remain com-
patible with the general neighborhood" be eliminated. He
advised that these uses be specifically stated.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilman
Kirkpatrick, that the City Attorney be instructed to prepare
the necessary documents to dispose of surplus property as
abovementioned, for submission to Council at its next
regular meeting of. May 5, 1980 . Said documents should
specifically state the allowable uses. The Vote: Unanimous
Ayes
AGREEMENT - Between City of Redding and PG&E for PG&E to do
Certain Joint Facility Work
City Manager Brickwood reviewed Electric Director Simpson 's
Memo to Council dated April 17, 1980. He stated this item
is an agreement between the City of Redding and PG&E for
PG&E to rearrange their facilities on transmission and
distribution poles between the City limits and the waste
treatment plant to provide adequate space for the City to
install 12, 000 volt facilities from the present City
limits to the waste treatment plant. It is recommended
that Council approve the agreement in the amount of approx-
imately $12, 000 and authorize the Mayor to sign.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilman
Fulton approving the agreement as hereinabove described

RESOLUTION - re Waiver of Parcel Map for Lot Line Adjustment �, �
LS-26-80 /6 '
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed
4/21/80
146
his memo to Council dated April 15, 1980. He stated that at
its regular meeting of March 26, 1980, the Board of Admin-
istrative Review granted Jabb Development permission to adjust
lot lines at 2600 Park Marina Drive. Maps depicting the
location of the property and proposed adjustments were shown
on the Vu Graph. Mr. W. C . Matz, the developer of Park
Marina Circle Subdivision, and Mr. Frank Wilson have agreed
to a land exchange in which a triangular piece along Park
Marina Drive would be deeded from Wilson to Matz; and a
strip along Matz ' north property line would be deeded to Wilson.
The respective pieces of property would provide access to the
approved commercial subdivision and additional parking for the
Washington Plaza office complex.
The applicants have requested that the parcel-map requirement
be waived in order to simplify the recording of the final
subdivision map. It is the recommendation of the staff that
the requirement for a parcel map be waived by adoption of the
submitted resolution.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Council-
man Fulton, adopting Resolution No. 80-84, a resolution of

RIGHT-OF-WAY ACQUISITION - Victor Avenue
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed his
memo to Council dated April 18, 1980 . He stated in 1979 , the
City Council approved the designation of Victor Avenue as
a major thoroughfare in the Circulation Element of the Redding
General Plan. Earlier this year, the City acquired a one-acre
parcel on the south side of Hartnell Avenue in order to extend
Victor Avenue to the south of Hartnell Avenue. An opportunity
.CC) now exists for the City to acquire the parcel located at
the northwest corner of Victor Avenue and Hartnell Avenue.
The lot is 67 feet wide and 137 feet long. The attached map
depicts the property in question which is for sale. In the
long run, it appears that the City will have to acquire
the property to widen Victor Avenue and to provide a work-
able intersection. The lot is narrow; and when the street
is widened, very little usable area would be left.
At their regular meeting of March 25, 1980, the Planning
Commission unanimously recommended to the Council the acquisi-
tion of the subject parcel for right of way. It is the
recommendation of staff that Council authorize the City
Attorney to proceed with the acquisition and authorize the
Mayor to sign the necessary documents . 111
MOTION: Made by Councilwoman Gard, seconded by Councilman
Kirkpatrick approving the recommendation of staff and
authorizing the City Attorney to proceed with the acquisi-
tion and authorize the Mayor to sign the necessary docu-
ments . The Vote: Unanimous Ayes

the necessary structural work precedent to further renovation.

the City Manager to enter into a contract with the firm of Wirth
and Long to prepare plans for the restoration of the building,
provided the cost does not exceed the quoted price. It is
further recommended that Council authorize the filing of an appli-
cation for a $50, 000 matching grant with the State Department

the Council concurs , a resolution has been prepared for adoption
which authorizes the filing of the application, appoints the

PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS - Southern Pacific Railroad
Public Works Director Arness reviewed his memo to Council dated
April 14, 1980 . He stated staff has reviewed the pedestrian
crossings over the Southern Pacific Railroad tracks and has
communicated with the Roadmaster in Redding. Copies of his
responses were submitted to Council, as well as a sketch of
the clearances required for any type of railroad crossing, lir
illustrating the problems with attempting to develop a
pedestrian overcrossing. It is staff ' s opinion that the only
IIP time this type of structure would be used would be at that
time when a train physically blocks the crossing. During
periods of inclement weather or extremely hot weather, people
would choose not to use this extended ramp system. Estimates
were not prepared for such a structure, believing that the
response by the Southern Pacific Transportation Company is
a meaningful program. It is recommended that staff continue
to work with the Southern Pacific Railroad in a mutual effort
to maintain safe crossings .
This is an information item and no action is required by Council.
