sion line and its effect on Reno Lane, was asked by the Mayor
if he had any objections to the Moore Road site and he indicated
he had none.

ing public transportation for low-mobility individuals such

to fulfill the transportation needs that are not presently
being met and cannot be met by other funding programs . Grant
guidelines were submitted to Council.

by the grant program would be to acquire a van to transport
moderate-income Hospice patients for treatment at Mercy Hospital.

Hospital. The specially equipped van is estimated to cost
$25, 000 . He advised that Shasta General, Memorial Hospital, and

ditional endorsement.

INSTALLATION OF CROSSWALK - Across Park Marina Drive at the

painted cross-walk is not desirable because studies show that
pedestrians place false confidence in them and because people
will probably still cross wherever it suits their convenience.

be advantageous and should be painted across Park Marina Drive
at the south side of Park Marina Circle, and voted unanimously
to so recommend to Council.

Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing
Planning Commission Recommendation dated 10/17/80
The Deputy City Clerk advised that no written protests
have been received.
Planning and Community Development Director Perry reviewed
his memorandum to Council dated October 17, 1980 . He
stated that at its regular meeting of September 10, 1980,
the Planning Commission granted Bruce Thorpe permission
to divide 18 acres located west of East Bonnyview Road,
south of Pioneer Drive, and north of South Bonnyview
Road into 36 lots. The applicant has since filed a
letter appealing the conditions of approval. A map of •
the area was shown on the Vu Graph. He noted that Mr.
Thorpe has appealed only Condition No. 23 , which pertains
to the assessment of a fee for water-system improvements
within the Cascade Pressure Zone. The fee amounts to
$835 per lot and would be paid at the time of water con-
' nection. Mr. Perry advised that the purpose of the fee is
to obtain the necessary revenue for the City to augment
the existing water system in the Cascade area to allow
for property owners to intensify the use of their prop-
; erties.
Mr. Perry stated that in the Cascade area, the fees were
derived by estimating the construction cost of improve-
' ments recommended in the Master Water Plan and by dividing
10/20/80
405
that amount by the projected population in terms of
Household Equivalents to be allowed within the benefiting
•
geographic area. Essentially, he noted, the recommended •
fee is a percentage share of needed water-system improve-
ments spread across a large base. Equality is obtained
among system connectors by using a standard household
equivalent to determine the assessment.
Mr. Perry further stated that unless the City or individual
developers construct the required water-system improvements ,
the water utility will not be able to supply adequate fire
and domestic water flows to this area. The required con-
tribution is essentially a mitigation measure to offset
the cumulative impact of development in the area. Without
the water-system improvements being developed, there would
be an adverse environmental impact on the City fire rating
and an inadequate water supply to both existing and future
customers.
It is the recommendation of staff that the appeal be denied.
A memorandum from the Public Works Director was also sub-
mitted which is hereby made a part of these records by
reference. Said memo outlined sanitary sewer needs as
recommended by PACE Engineering, Water System Needs, fund-
ing alternatives , and a recommendation to establish and
assign a special benefit charge for the identified problem
areas .
In response to an inquiry from Dr. Fulton, Public Works
Director Arness advised that the monies accumulated for
this improvement project would be kept in a special fund
to be used for this particular project and would acquire
the normal rate of interest.
Mayor Pugh invited comments from the floor at this time. •
Bruce Thorpe, applicant, stated he is not objecting to
paying his fair share, but his basic argument is the
way in which the fees are arrived at. He stated that
the fees already being assessed for each lot are approx-
imately $3, 501, or a total of $126, 000 for the 36-lot
subdivision. He feels there is duplication in the water
service fees. Mr. Thorpe stated that no ordinance has
been adopted to his knowledge, which specifies that the
water-system improvement fees should bepaid by developers
in the Cascade Pressure Zone. He stated that other
land-owners in the area are also unaware of the assessment
of these fees and felt an ordinance should be introduced
and public comments heard on the matter.
Mr. Kirkpatrick noted that the improvements are necessary
and must be done and that an ordinance will probably be
developed in the near future .
,Mayor Pugh:s•tated that Council, has heard .these" concerns
prior to this meeting and is working with staff to
develop a procedure for financing capital improvements
such as this.
Councilman Fulton stated he felt the City is asking Mr.
Thorpe to pay water fees in several different ways . He
10/20/80
7
406
.
felt it would be appropriate to wait to assess these fees
until such time as Council has had an opportunity to dis-
cuss this matter publicly .
Mayor Pugh noted that this would involve a delay to Mr.
Thorpe of at least six months, and there would be the
problem of mitigating the EIR.
Councilman Demsher expressed concern that the City will
eventually be expected to pay for such improvements and
will be faced with a massive lack of revenue to do so.
He felt the revenue must come from benefit feesand
noted that the method of arriving at the fees seems to
be equitable. He agreed with Mr. Thorpe that an ordinance
outlining this procedure should be adopted as quickly
as possible.
Council Members discussed other methods of obtaining
revenue for such projects, such as bond issues; however,
it was felt that it would be difficult to have a bond
issue passed by the entire City which would benefit only
one particular area.
Councilman Kirkpatrick stated he would like to see these
problem areas identified specifically and discuss them
publicly prior to development.
Council was advised that staff is presently working on
identifying these areas .
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by
Councilman Demsher that the appeal of Tentative Sub-
division Map S-14-80, by Bruce Thorpe, be denied.
Voting was as follows :
Ayes : Council Members - Demsher, Kirkpatrick, and Pugh

} PUBLIC HEARING - re Bechelli Lane Curb, Gutter, and Sidewalk
Improvements Assessment District (Chapter 27)
The hour of 7: 30 P .M. having arrived, Mayor Pugh opened
the public hearing re Bechelli Lane Curb, Gutter, and
Sidewalk Improvements Assessment District (Chapter 27) .
The following documents are on file in the office of the
City Clerk:
Affidavit of Mailing and Posting - Notice of Public
Hearing
The Deputy City Clerk advised that no written protests
have been received.
Public Works Director Arness advised Council that the
subject Assessment District is located on the west side
of Bechelli and south of Wilshire. A map of the area
was shown on the Vu Graph. He noted that the subject
Assessment District was initiated by the decision to in-
stall a traffic signal at Bechelli and Hartnell , which
therefore necessitated the acquisition of right-of-way
10/20/80
407
s
and the Chapter 27 Assessment District on the west side
of Bechelli.
Eugene Rother, P. O. Box 3008, property owner in the
area, stated that he now has approximately 50 parking
spaces, and he will lose one-third of those spaces
if this project is approved. He stated that long-term
leases are currently in effect on his buildings and there
would be no way to recover the amount of money required
to finance these improvements. Mr. Rother did not feel
that four lanes were necessary and noted that his property
is approximately 500 feet from the proposed signals at
Hartnell. Mr. Rother requests that he not be required
to make the subject improvements.
Councilman Fulton felt it was unfair for the City to take
one-third of Mr. Bother' s parking and also ask him to pay
for curb, gutter, and sidewalks.
Mayor Pugh noted that there are no sidewalks on the north
end of Bechelli, north of Wilshire Drive. He felt that
the expense of curb, gutter, and sidewalk on this portion
of Bechelli may not be advantageous, since at some time
in the near future, the intersection may be rearranged.
He felt it may be just as effective to install a barrier
to prevent access over the curb.
Mr. Arness stated it would have to be placed at a distance
to preclude cars from backing out onto the roadway. He
also noted that considerable work would have to be done to
control drainage. Mr. Arness felt that the continuity of
sidewalks is needed in the area.
Mayor Pugh stated that he would like to see cost figures
and some thoughts on the use of wheel stops or asphalt
barriers as opposed to curb, gutter, and sidewalks .
He suggested continuing this public hearing until November 3 ,
1980, until these figures are available.
Councilman Kirkpatrick stated that pedestrian safety is
a factor, not only for those walking by, but also for those
who are patronizing the businesses in the area. He noted
it is a very dangerous situation and felt that considering
the way the traffic moves in the area, a berm would not
be adequate.
Councilman Fulton agreed with the Mayor that the hearing •
be continued, to give staff an opportunity to compile
some alternative cost figures.
Mayor Pugh clarified that he would like staff to compile
dollar figures on the curb, gutter, and sidewalks, compared
to dollar figures on asphalt barricades and on wheel-stops ,
and to give input on these alternatives .
MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Council-
man Kirkpatrick that the public hearing re Bechelli Lane
Curb, Gutter, and Sidewalk Improvements Assessment District •
(Chapter 27) , be continued to 7 : 30 P .M. , November 3 , 1980
