He stated that based on the first bids that were made for Geo- thermal steam rights, the second program was to work with the property owners as the original leasehold owner of the mineral 1(9`/ rights has the right to match the bid of the successful bidder. This resulted in Almonoil securing the rights . However, one property owner who has property north of the areas up for bid has expressed a willingness to enter into an agreement with M.S .R. He has 600 acres and has partial rights , with the State also hav- ing individual rights . It is proposed that M.S .R. pay him $24 , 000 a year advance royalties on said property for his Geothermal rights . Mayor Pugh said he has not heard how negotiations are proceeding on this property. He noted that the M.S .R. Power Agency had an organizational meeting on Tuesday, May 13, and had authorized bids on three additional parcels the State had put up for bid on Friday, May 16 . M.S .R. was the third highest bidder on these parcels . The M.S .R.

MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Demsher setting a public hearing on the Redding City budget and the proposed uses of Revenue Sharing funds , on June 2 , 1980 , at 7: 30 P.M. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes SUPPLEMENTAL POWER CONTRACT - between City of Redding & P .G. & E . Electric Director Simpson reviewed his memo to Council dated May 12, 1980 . He stated the electric load growth customers within the Central Valley Project area, which includes the City of Redding, reached an agreement with the Western Area Power Administration whereby each customer receives a fixed allo- cation of power through the term of the power contracts . The City of Redding is a load growth customer and has reached an agreement with the Western Area Power Administration for the fixed allocation of 116 megawatts through the year 2004 . The City' s previous high demand occurred in September, 1979 at 98 . 5 megawatts . The contract submitted to Council is between the City of Redding and P.G. & E . to provide supplemental power to the City at any time the City has a demand greater than the 116 megawatts . Mr. Simpson recommended that Council adopt the resolution approving the contract and authorizing the Mayor to execute the necessary document. Mayor Pugh noted there has been substantial time and effort invested in negotiating this contract and feels it leaves the City in the best posture to negotiate a future supply contract with P.G. & E . once we have our own generation or other purchased power. He noted that in order to be locked into a specific pre- sent supply contract allowing generation and other purchases , the City would have to guarantee when the generation or new supplies would be available. Mayor Pugh felt the contract was fair to both parties . Resolution MOTION: Made by Councilwoman Gard, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick that Resolution No. 80-106 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding approving the supplemental power contract with P.G. & E . and authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to sign same on behalf of the City.

Mr. Perry stated for the most part, plan- ning fees have not been raised in the City since 1972 . The only exceptions are fees for environmental-impact reports and planned-unit developments. Since 1972, many changes have occurred in the planning-process costs, including adoption of the California Environmental Quality Act, which requires en- vironmental reviews for all applications. Postage and legal- ad rates have also increased. In addition, specific findings are now required on all applications. More recently, State law was amended to require that each applicant be notified by letter whether his application is complete or incomplete . Mr. Perry noted that the proposed fee schedule reflects only the direct cost of processing the permit and does not include overhead, preapplication conferences , or nonpermit-related costs that are part of the day-to-day Department operation. It is recommended by staff that the City Attorney be asked to prepare a resolution for fees for subdivisions , site-plan reviews, abandonments, and animal permits for the next regular Council meeting. The remainder of the fees presently require amendment of the City Code by ordinance, and it is recommended that these fees be referred to the Planning Commission in order to amend the City Code to permit these fees to be adopted by resolution also. In response to an inquiry from Mayor Pugh regarding what infor- mation has been available to the general community in regard to this program, Mr. Perry stated an article in the newspaper has been the only published information. Councilwoman Gard stated she felt the current fees as compared with other agencies, were low and if left alone would become very unrealistic. Mayor Pugh noted that he believes the increases are fully justified and would like the general public to look at the complete proposal. Councilman Demsher suggested persons on the mailing list for the Planning Commission and Board of Administrative Review be ad- vised of these revisions and invited to make comments when these resolutions are brought back to Council. It was agreed by Council that the entire proposal be referred to the Planning Commission and be brought back to Council in one package. MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick that the proposed planning-permit fee revisions be referred to the Planning Commission in their entirety and be brought back to Council in one package. The Vote: Unan- imous Ayes CASCADE AREA PLAN - Request to change the Redding General Plan I1-/5 Planning and Community Development Director Perry submitted a letter from Robert Rehberg representing several property owners on Clear Creek Road who are trying to get the area classified 5/19/80 176 as "Commercial" on the Shasta County General Plan. Mr. Perry stated that in 1978, the City adopted the Cascade Plan, which classified the area as "Residential, " two and three units per acre. Presently, Shasta County is processing the Cascade Plan. The only apparent point of controversy is the Clear Creek Road area. Both the County staff and the County Planning Commission have recommended that the area be residential. This week, the 111 Board of Supervisors took the matter under advisement. The area is presently classified on the County plan as "Residential, " one to four units per acre. In response to Mr. Rehberg 's letter, it is the recommendation of staff that he be advised that the procedure to change the Redding General Plan is to formally file for a general-plan amendment. MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilwoman Gard that a letter be sent to Mr. Rehberg indicating that if he wishes the City to consider a General Plan Amendment, he must formally file for said amendment.

He stated the U.S . Depart- ment of Housing and Community Development has announced a new grant program for innovative Community Energy Conservation. The purpose of the program is to encourage local governments ^� to integrate energy conservation with their community-develop- ment activities. Mr. Perry advised that the program criteria had been reviewed and he submitted examples of energy-conserva- tion activities. It is the opinion of staff that a grant from the program would be supportive of the City 's housing rehabili- tation program and energy-conservation information program. In conjunction with the City's already on-going programs , grant monies could be used to: 1. Develop a program to provide financial grants for energy conservation to supplement the City's rehabilitation loan program for moderate-income families . 2. Develop a program to provide financial assistance for energy conservation for owners of multifamily dwellings that house low- and moderate-income families . 3. Develop an energy-conservation element for the City as part of the Redding General Plan in order to establish goals and policies for future energy-conservation programs . 4. Provide technical assistance and information to builders on energy conservation. The deadline for the submission of an application is June 23 , 1980 . Grants are competitive nation-wide, and HUD expects to approve ten to twenty applications. As part of the application, Redding would need to submit a statement on energy-conservation measures that the City has undertaken or will undertake. Matching local funds are not required in order to obtain a grant. Mr. Perry concluded, it is the recommendation of staff that Council author- ize an application to the Department of Housing and Urban Develop- ment for a Community Energy Conservation Grant for the amount of $300, 000 and that the City Manager be authorized to act on behalf of the City and execute the necessary documents . If the Council concurs , a resolution has been prepared for Council consideration and adoption. Resolution MOTION: Made by Councilwoman Gard, seconded by Councilman Demsher that Resolution No. 80-109 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding authorizing the City Manager to file with the U.S .

The Vote: Unanimous Ayes REDDING BEAUTY COLLEGE - Request for Relief From 2-Hour Parking Limit Traffic Engineer Hamilton reviewed the recommendation of the Traffic and Parking Commission as stated in his memo to Council dated May 13, 1980 . A letter dated April 10 , 1980 was received �t ��1 from Robert Hambleton requesting relief from the two-hour park- ing limit on the streets in the neighborhood of the Redding Beauty College. Said letter was referred to the Traffic and Parking Commission. On January 8 , 1979 , the same request from Mr. Hambleton was considered by the Traffic and Parking Com- mission, and no recommendation was made at that time to change the two-hour limit, for the following reasons : 1. A three or four hour limit would result in long-term parking by employees from the general area and, hence, would not create open customer spaces for the Beauty College. 2. The Mall parking lot is within reasonable walking distance and offers free three-hour parking. The Traffic and Parking Commission again recommended that no change be made in the parking limits in the vicinity of the Redding Beauty College. Chairman Vincelli suggested that Mr. Hambleton pursue the possibility of developing off-street parking on the vacant property on the southwest corner of California and South Streets , and on the lot south of Shasta Glass . Council discussed the matter and agreed that increasing the parking limit in this vicinity would not solve Mr. Hambleton' s problem as people who work elsewhere in the area would utilize these spaces . Also, this would open the door to evaluating individual parking requests. Mayor Pugh spoke of the need of a parking district for the core area. Mr. Hamilton noted that the Beauty College provides no off-street parking for its students and customers and should look at the possibility of locating a parking lot in the vacant lot across the street from the College. MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Demsher approving the recommendation of the Traffic and Parking Commission and staff, that no change be made in the on-street parking limits in the vicinity of Redding Beauty College .

MOTION: Made by Councilwoman Gard, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick to waive the full reading of Ordinance No. 1491. { 5/19/80 186 The Vote: Unanimous Ayes MOTION: Made by Councilwoman Gard, seconded by Councilman Demsher that Ordinance No. 1491 be adopted, an ordinance of the City Council of the City of Redding amending Chapter 10 . 20 of the Redding Municipal Code by repealing Section 10 . 20 . 040 and substituting therefor new Sections 10. 20 . 040, 10 . 20 . 045 , and 10 . 20. 046 regulating possession and consumption of alcoholic • beverages in City Parks . Before calling for the vote, Mayor Pugh asked if anyone in the audience wished to address this issue. Mr. Ray Foust, Superindendent of the Whiskeytown National Recrea- tion Area, spoke to Council at this time, concerning his appre- hensions in regard to the adoption of the above Ordinance. He is concerned that it would not eliminate the problems experienced in City Parks , but simply move them to other areas such as Whiskeytown Lake. Mr. Foust noted that he doesn ' t have the man- power or travel funds to handle patrol which would be necessary if they experience the same type of trouble which has been occur- ring in Redding. He stated that a total of 20 arrests were made last year, 14 or 15 of which were alcohol or drug related. Already this year they have made 12 arrests , all of which were alcohol re- lated. In the past, 92% of the use of the park has been day-use. He hopes these apprehensions prove needless . Councilwoman Gard stated that Council has considered this possibility when discussing the issue. Councilman Demsher believes that the effects probably won ' t be felt for quite a while, as the majority of the problems occur in April and May. He felt the fact that Whiskeytown is quite a distance away from Redding and the fact that the arrests would be made by Federal Officers , could discourage some of the people . Mayor Pugh advised Mr. Foust that he had received- his letter expressing these concerns and it has been discussed by Council . Councilman Kirkpatrick noted that this is a community effort and hoped the alcohol-related problems would not be shifted from the Redding city parks to Whiskeytown Lake. Councilman Demsher asked that Mr. Foust advise the City of what impact is felt at Whiskeytown in the coming months , and expressed the hope that the problem might be eliminated. Mr. Foust stated he will begin keeping very accurate records as to the types of crimes being committed in his area. He noted he has advised the Highway Patrol and the Sheriff 's Office of the situation. In response to an inquiry from Councilwoman Gard, Mr. Foust advised that he has seen an increase in alcohol-related problems since the proposed Ordinance banning alcohol in City parks has been pub- licized. He felt this was partly due to the time of the year and not entirely because of the proposed ordinance. At this time Mayor Pugh called for the vote. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Demsher, Gard, and Kirkpatrick Noes: Council Members - Pugh Absent: Council Members - Fulton Ordinance No. 1491 is on file in the office of the City Clerk. 5/19/80 187 City Attorney Hays advised that the Parks and Recreation Department is preparing signs and, until the signs are posted, enforcement of the above ordinance will not begin.

At present, the changes in rates for sewer services are established by ordinance.
