Citizen Communication re Traffic Signal at Market and Tehama Streets
In a communication to Council dated July 9, 1979, Beulah Johnson, 901
North Market Street, directed Council's attention to the traffic signal
at the corner of Market and Tehama Streets at the north end of the
Downtown Mall. She pointed out that the duration of the green signal
\\ indicating "walk" is so short, it is impossible to get completely
across the street. This is complicated by the fact that motorists
are allowed to proceed on a red light after making a stop. She pointed
out that it is an inconvenience to old or handicapped persons and a
safety hazard to everyone trying to cross the street.

PUBLIC HEARING - Cascade Neighborhood Plan - Olney Creek General Plan I�
Amendment
The hour of 7:30 P.M. having arrived, Vice Mayor Fulton opened the
Public Hearing re the Cascade Neighborhood Plan - Olney Creek General
Plan Amendment.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk:
Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing
Planning Commission Recommendation dated July 12, 1979
Supplemental Environmental Impact Report EIR-2-78
The City Clerk advised that no written protests have been received.
</
Planning and Community Development Director Harris reviewed his memo
to Council dated July 12, 1979, stating that at its regular meeting
of June 12, 1979, the Redding Planning Commission unanimously recom-
mended approval of General Plan Amendment GPA-4-79, concerning the
land use for the area adjacent to Olney Creek. The area under con-
sideration was shown on the Vu Graph. Mr. Harris stated that the
issue of the proposed General Plan amendment is whether to leave the
channel of Olney Creek in its natural state or adopt one of three
alternate flood-control measures to mitigate flooding. Each of the
alternatives is evaluated in the Environmental Impact Report.
Mr. Harris said it is the opinion of the Planning Commission and the
staff that the natural channel concept is only acceptable for the
strip of channel located above the ACID Canal and below Girvan Road
because of existing and proposed development in said areas. Because
of existing development that has already occurred between these two
points, the shaped earth alternative or setback alternative is recom-
mended for the Olney Creek Channel. Mr. Harris pointed out that for
the portion of the flood plain, other than that illustrated as green-
way, it is recommended that it be classified in a manner consistent
with the adopted Cascade Neighborhood Plan. It is the staff recom-
mendation that after close of the Public Hearing, the supplemental
EIR be adopted, the Plan, as recommended, be approved, and the prepared
resolution be adopted.
The following persons responded to the issue:
M.B. Christian, 2001 Jewell Lane, representing the Estate of
M.V. Christian, stated that the Christian 35-acre site located
at South Bonnyview and Eastside Roads, lies on both sides of
Olney Creek and he desires to see the full extent of that
property outlined on the map. The elderly gentleman pointed
out that last summer the banks of Olney Creek in this area were
all graded and the creek was put back into its original bed.
He doesn't believe that Olney Creek will flood here.
Planning and Community Development Director Harris noted that
the Vu Graph doesn't designate property lines.
Mrs. Dan Madrid, 2584 Sacramento Drive, whose property is located
adjacent to Allen's Golf Course, stated that 50 ft. of her property
has been washed out along with some of the golf course property.
Mrs. Madrid desires relief from the flooding and is a proponent
of flood controls which will accomplish same before it rains again.
Public Works Director Arness advised that the City does not have
plans for spot work on the creek. In looking at the Vu Graph,
188
Mr. Arness said he believes the EIR sets forth control measures
for curbing the water within the heavily shaded area illustrated
on the map (area adjacent to the Creek in varying widths) .
Councilwoman Gard noted that cleaning the creek bed upstream
may help alleviate the situation Mrs. Madrid is experiencing.
Mr. Arness said that funds have not been budgeted or programmed
for cleaning.
Dick Gore, Westwood Construction Company, 2190 Westwood Avenue,
recommended that no flood control measures be implemented upstream
of the ACID Crossing. In his opinion, the channel is adequate
upstream. He is in agreement with the recommendation for the
remainder of the Creek.
Mr. Harris replied that the plan provides for bank control
measures for a distance of only 1000 ft. west of the ACID Canal.
Lloyd McCants, 3025 Lakewood Drive, said that the Bonnyview drain
is a problem for his property.
Public Works Director Arness replied that PACE Engineering is
preparing a Master Storm Drain Plan for the City which will
determine the appropriate depth to transport those waters safely
without flooding. He noted that this matter is not being con-
sidered this evening.
Ron Munk, 3168 Inverness, representing Buchanan and Buckner,
stated that he represents the owner of a 20-acre parcel of
property the City has plans to purchase for park land. He
questioned whether his firm would have to make application to
the City for a zoning change prior to development if the City
is unable to purchase the land.
Mr. Harris replied in the affirmative.
Jim Westlake, Westlake Realty, 2510 Eureka Way, representing
Russell G. Weide, who owns an 8.3 parcel of land along Olney
Creek. Mr. Westlake requested substantiation for the portion
of the plan that prohibits his client from developing 2.5 acres
of his parcel. He noted that the proposed amendment designates
a 100 ft. strip of his client's property as greenway. He
questioned whether there would be a credit offered for unusable
land.
Mr. Harris responded that without flood control measures, the
problem of flooding would preclude development.
Councilman Pugh said that some area between the limits of the
flood plain and the greenway will be available for development.
He said that since annexation of this area to the City, the City
assumed greater responsibility and is going to be certain that
these areas are safe for building.
Mr. Westlake asked who would be responsible for diking.
Mr. Harris said that it would be up to the property owners to
form an assessment district for same.
Mr. Westlake asked if the City has provided any corrective
measures on Olney Creek.
189
Mr. Arness responded that the City corrected an erroded area
where it was losing a sanitary sewer.
Mr. Westlake asked if a zoning change will be required to zone
the Weide property R1-PD.
Mr. Harris answered in the affirmative. He said that zoning of
the area will follow after adoption of the General Plan Amendment.
MOTION: Made by Councilwoman Gard, seconded by Councilman Pugh that
the Public Hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
