The meeting was called to order at 7:30 P.M. by Mayor Demsher with the following Councilmen present: Gard, Kirkpatrick, Pugh, and Demsher. Councilman Fulton entered the meeting at 7:40 P.M. as indicated hereinafter. Also present were City Manager Brickwood, City Attorney Murphy, Public Works Director Arness, Planning and Community Development Director Harris, Parks and Recreation Director Riley, Traffic Engineer Hamilton, Assistant Planner King, City Clerk Brayton, and Deputy City Clerk Richter. PUBLIC HEARING - Appeal of Tentative Map for Lake Redding Estates Subdivision The hour of 7:30 P.M. having arrived, Mayor Demsher opened the Public Hearing on the Appeal of the Tentative Subdivision Map for Lake Redding Estates Subdivision. 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 April 17, 1978 The City Clerk advised Council that no written protests had been received. Planning and Community Development Director Harris reviewed his memo to Council dated April 17, 1978, concerning the appeal filed by'Jane Whitehead, Violet Klaseen, et al, of the approval of the Planning Com- mission of the tentative Subdivision Map for Lake Redding Estates. Mr. Harris said that previously, under separate cover, Council received copies of Environmental Impact Reports EIR-1-77 and EIR-4-78, that pertain to the project, and the following: 1. Summary Statement of Proceedings and Actions 2. Summary Environmental Impact Report 3. List of Required Actions to Approve the Tentative Map 4. List of Conditions of Approval 5. Colored rendering of Approved Tentative Map Mr. Harris advised that the Planning Commission approved the,tentative map on March 14, 1978, subject to 47 conditions, all of which have been agreed to by the developer. The major points covered in the 47 conditions included: 1. A maximum of 590 lots 2. Realignment of Quartz Hill Road through the property as a four -lane major thoroughfare 3. Construction of a four -lane street between Benton Drive and North Market Street 4. Dedication of a ten -acre school site 5. Dedication of three one -acre neighborhood park sites 6. Dedication of a strip of land 210 to 450 feet in width along the entire frontage of the Sacramento River, for park and open - space purposes 7. The developer's placing on deposit with the City $50,000 for traffic signals on Highway 273 Mr. Harris said that in approving the tentative map, the Commission found, under the California Environmental Quality Act, that changes were required 104 and incorporated into the project which mitigate the significant environmental effects identified in the final EIR. Under the Sub- division Map Act, the Commission did not find in evidence any of the specified criteria that would have required the tentative map to be denied. Mr. Harris stated that in his letter of appeal, the attorney for the appellants has requested Council to overturn the action of the Commission based on three of the criteria under the Subdivision Map Act and to reduce substantially the density of the project to mitigate the traffic impact and to protect Caldwell Park. The letter of appeal does not include any new evidence of which the Commission was not already aware. Mr. Harris reviewed the 47 conditions imposed by the Planning Commission. Mr. Harris said the staff concurs in the action of the Planning Com- mission in approving the tentative map and would recommend that the action of the Commission be sustained and the appeal be denied. It is also the recommendation of the staff that Council ratify the findings of the Planning Commission with respect to the tentative map. Large colored maps depicting the proposed subdivision and adjoining Caldwell Park were displayed. At this point in the hearing, Councilman Fulton entered the meeting. Mayor Demsher asked members of Council whether they had questions of Mr. Harris prior to opening the hearing to the public. Councilwoman Gard asked what the ultimate use was for the greenway-open space easement to the westerly side of the proposed development. Mr. Harris replied that it would remain in private ownership, but would be designated open space and greenway for the benefit of the lots within the subdivision and the residents of the City of Redding. Councilwoman Gard asked if the grade of the roads proposed were in excess of 120. Public Works Director Arness said that his Department discourages roads that steep. (For additional discussion of this matter, see Page 111) Mayor Demsher asked what the cost would be for a traffic light at the intersection of Market Street and Del Mar Avenue? Todd Fineberg, 1428 West Street, Attorney, said he was representing a number of appellants.who are of the position that Council has the authority to reduce the density of the development and to deny this Traffic Engineer Hamilton said that presently Cal Trans uses the figure of $100,000 for total installation and that is the figure the City is quoting. Mr. Hamilton said the developer is committed to pay $25,000 for one leg of each of the two traffic lights. Mayor Demsher advised the audience that during the public hearing, Council persons reserve the right to ask questions of knowledgeable persons in order to clarify a point. Mr. Demsher advised that members of Council and staff have read the voluminous matter contained in three binders covering the total project. He said that any information presented at any of the Commission meetings, or hearings held previously, was in the hands of the Council and has been reviewed. He requested that comments be succinct because a long evening inhibits the thinking process when the time comes for the final decision in the matter. Councilman Pugh added that because Council has reviewed the three volumes of material, it requests that only new material be presented. Todd Fineberg, 1428 West Street, Attorney, said he was representing a number of appellants.who are of the position that Council has the authority to reduce the density of the development and to deny this 105 tentative map altogether on the grounds that it will damage the area to the west of Benton Drive. 'Mr. Fineberg said that a traffic report prepared by Barnard C. Johnson, a San Francisco Traffic Engineering Consultant, who has worked as a Traffic Engineer for 20 years, is being submitted as new information. He quoted statistics from Mr. Johnson's report dated April 18, which report is made a part of these minutes by reference. It is the opinion of Mr. Johnson that the proposed and potential developments would impose significant traffic increases on Market Street, California Street, and the streets to the northwest, and it appears to him that a more detailed study of the access system is needed to assure workability of any new J developments. Mr. Fineberg said that from a study of the General Plan, the area around Quartz Hill has a development potential of 1350 units which will generate a traffic volume of 26,000 cars per day. This 'traffic will flow toward the City along the same channels as Lake Redding Estates and Mr. Fineberg questioned whether the City has considered the vast potential of motorists in that area. He asked about the traffic volumes at peak hours and during peak usage in the summer and said these figures have not been provided for consideration. Mr. Fineberg said the proposed extension of Delta Street at the north end of the Park is another mitigating factor. He said previous tentative subdivision maps have not included the street pattern as shown at tonight's meeting. He felt the discussion and consideration has been limited mainly to the street pattern within the subdivision itself and the number of units to be developed. City Attorney Murphy asked Planning Director Harris if the street pattern has been presented to the Planning Commission. Mr. Harris replied that four different alignments were presented to the Planning Commission during the EIR hearings. He said the Commission refined the proposals submitted. Mr. Fineberg felt it urgent that a specific EIR be completed on the extension of Delta Street, as a concentrated study on the impact of the road going through the park has not been accomplished. He further stated that the safety factor has not been dealt with. Councilman Pugh pointed out that the minutes of the Planning Commission indicated the safety factor was discussed at the last public hearing. Mr. Fineberg said the General Plan is not phrased in specific terms. It talks about maximum limits on developments. He stated that the Subdivision Map Act gives control to local agencies and he urges the City to exercise authority over the size of the subdivisions. Mr. Fineberg did not feel the Council was locked into granting the request for 609 units as proposed 1by the General Plan. He felt the number should be reduced in density to 125 units or 200 units to protect the environment and reduce the traffic. He felt this area of Redding is fragile and the natural setting and habitat are not compatible with the proposal for heavy traffic and congestion. Mr. Fineberg said the question of an inverse condemnation lawsuit is a possibility. He feels there is no vested right of the developer to any specific number of units unless there are actual building permits issued or an investment in improvements made. He said the Council's hands are not tied in this matter, the City has power to regulate land uses. Mr. Fineberg cited court cases upholding his belief (HFH vs. Los Angeles/ Youngblood vs. Board of Supervisors (1977)/Eldridge vs. City of San Mateo). Mr. Fineberg contends that the developer will make a substantial 106 amount even if the development is cut by one-half or more. He said the City can deny the project on legal grounds. Councilman Pugh felt there should be some clarification as to whether Mr. Johnson, the Traffic Engineer, is referring to future development or the proposed development re impacting Market Street. Vi Klaseen, 595 Mary Street, asked Council if the City plans to permit �L development of this area to the limit of what the present streets can \� handle or is it going to allow development greater than the streets can accommodate. She said the proposed plan requires planning for future adequacy for traffic. Mrs. Klaseen said her personal preference is to limit development to what the present streets can handle. She said if new development is allowed, a new north south route across the river, parallel to Market Street, should be provided for rather than proposing to utilize Benton Drive. She admonished Council to consider peripheral effects of funneling four lanes of traffic through the park. She said this proposal raises several questions such as traffic volume, what happens at Market and Eureka Way, what happens to traffic with the addition of two lights on Market Street, what about Riverside Drive, what about the Market Street traffic down Sulphur Creek Hill, what about safety? She stated that the exterior effects of this proposal must be considered. City Attorney Murphy asked Mrs. Klaseen if it was her position that Delta Street should not be built and to limit the development so the existing street pattern is adequate. He questioned how the City could prevent the area clear to Keswick Dam from being developed. Mrs. Klaseen said she felt the City should plan for streets that are really going to carry the future traffic. Councilman Pugh said the development would have an impact on the entire City. He said the City of Redding has limiting geographic boundaries and is bisected by a river, a railroad track and the freeway. Mr. Pugh said it is not within the monetary realm to build a new bridge. He said we would have to live with the congestion that growth brings. He didn't think the City could stop the growth, but must plan the best it can to make the flow of traffic as smooth as possible. Mr. Pugh said Council has to make a decision on the information available and it has ample infor- mation obtained during the numerous meetings and from the materials v\ submitted covering a 15 -month span. Mr. Eberhart, 1537 Benton Drive, appealed to Council to examine the speed of the traffic on Benton Drive which appears excessive to him. He said it is posted 35 mph and is used by all types of trucks and motorists going at a faster rate of speed than posted. He said there are a lot of Senior Citizens, joggers, and groups of children utilizing the area with very few sidewalks. He stated he has not seen anyone arrested for excessive speeding. He pointed out that construction of the pro- posed development will compound the problem because heavy trucks will be using Benton Drive. Jane Whitehead, 390 Rosemary, said she lives in Redding Heights and the traffic emerging in the Market Street area is unbelievable and doesn't appear to have any pattern. She pointed out new developments in the peripheral area that would create more traffic onto Market Street as follows: 1. A development of 38 single family dwellings, known as Timberline Estates, located north of Redding Heights has been approved; 2. A commercial building containing 11,200 sq. ft. of floor area and 40 parking spaces is presently waiting for approval from the Board of Administrative Review (located at the northwest corner of Benton Drive and Market Street); 3. Francis Benton has 290 acres east of the Miracle Mile for which the General Plan shows the possibility of a develop- ment of 895 dwelling units; 4. The Dymesich lands on the west side of the Elks Club; 5. There is also the possibility of the development of 895 dwellings on property on Quartz Hill Road adjacent to Mr. Hilger's property. Ms. Whitehead expressed concern about the traffic that will be created by all of this development. She said some pattern for traffic must be adopted and guidance by the City is imperative. She said it isn't clear who will take care of the archaeological sites and noted that the museum parking area is congested. Ed Clewett, 929 Hawley Road, an instructor at Shasta College, and representing the Field Archaeological Society for California Archaeology, expressed concern for the archaeological sites located within the park area. He said that within the original Planning Department report developed for the EIR, 6 or 7 potential sites had been found, but those original potential sites have been decreased in number to three. He felt the report was inadequate and incomplete and questioned why the sites had been reduced. Secondly, he said he had contacted the State Historical Preservation office in Sacramento and learned that a letter was sent to Donald Doss of Humboldt Financial Services advising that the development was in close proximity to archaeological sites, one of which is listed in the National Register (Shasta 47), and requesting consideration of what the impact of the development will have on the sites. He asked where the information was that was requested in the letter. Mr. Clewett said of the three sites discussed, there is very little information given about the first two (Shasta 545 and Shasta 46), although the third site (Shasta 47) is discussed quite adequately. He questioned how the City intends to protect these sites since merely transferring them to the City does not guarantee protection. He advised that money, personnel, and time will have to be expended for their protection. He basically felt the archaeological aspects of the proposal were inadequate and incomplete and requested that more information be developed in the following areas: 1. Original survey 2. Primary information for at least two of the three sites discussed 3. Assessment of impact 4. Assessment of secondary impact on sites outside the project 5. Question of a lawsuit. In relation to this, he said if there is a legal question, Council has the right to request the office of the Attorney General to look at the archaeological report. 6. An additional problem now is the four -lane road and the site it will bisect. Mr. Clewett noted that Peter Banks, an Archaeologist, has reported that there are 26 archaeological sites of undetermined status in the Sulphur Creek area. 107 Councilman Pugh asked if this verbal presentation had been given before the Planning Commission. Mr. Clewett said that it had not. Councilman Pugh said the information was far more detailed and specific than anything submitted to the Planning Commission and if the concerns are as drastic as presented and the adequacy of the EIR is in question, he questioned why this verbal presentation was not made at an earlier meeting. Councilwoman Gard shared this concern. City Attorney Murphy said the adequacy of the EIR is not before Council for consideration, only the tentative map. He advised Council the EIR has been certified by the Planning Commission as to its adequacy and noted that the EIR for the General Plan Amendment was tested in the Superior Court and found adequate. Mayor Demsher asked Mr. Clewett if one of the roles of the Field Archaeological Society for California Archaeology is bringing to the attention of the public the neglect of a site or the inattention of sites in proposed developments such as the one being considered. Mr. Clewett agreed he had a professional responsibility to come to Council sooner with his verbal presentation, but said at this point, Council consideration of the information contained in the letters already submitted would be adequate. He said the problems related to the archaeological sites are dear to his heart and because throughout the State, three sites per day are being destroyed due to highways, subdivisions, and natural erosion, he has become more emotional about the matter. He said these are non-renewable natural resources and his feelings about them are greater now than a year ago when the EIR process commenced. Councilman Pugh said the developer has agreed to the preservation of the three archaeological sites already -existing within the development and, should additional sites be uncovered during development, construction will be halted and the sites studied. Dr. Winfield Henn, Central Valley, said the burial site in the existing park is presently being bisected by the road. He stated that an EIR on that site has not been considered. Planning Director Harris said the proposed street alignment would miss the site. Councilman Pugh advised Dr. Henn that Council was aware of that site. Dr. Eugene Clark, 1725 Wisconsin, was concerned with the philosophical attitude expressed by Councilman Pugh. He said he didn't like to hear that we have to put up with growth and accept the problems growth creates. He questioned whether the four -lane street had been discussed at prior meetings. He felt that at the Planning Commission level, the streets were considered on the basis of what they would do for the area, but not the total impact on the City of Redding. The method for measuring the traffic was questioned. Because the traffic fluctuates from morning to afternoon, he felt the method used might not be accurate enough. Gary Hollahan, 4460 Cynthia Way, asked if the present four -lane road had been previously discussed. Planning Director Harris said that four proposals had been discussed. Councilman Pugh said that the exact north -south alignment being presented was not considered, that it had been moved westerly to some extent. Mr. Hollahan asked if it wouldn't be appropriate to do additional study and an EIR on this specific alignment. City Attorney Murphy said the EIR and CEQA laws specify that a separate analysis is not required on a minor change such as this, but only on meaningful alterations. Mr. Hollahan asked if the greenway - open space easement, referred to by Councilwoman Gard earlier, could be developed at a later date. He was advised that the only way this area could be used for any use other than for greenway or open space would be by mutual agreement of the City Council, the adjoining property owners, and a unanimous vote of the 590 property owners within the subdivision. Councilwoman Gard said she felt this area was pretty secure. David Johnson, 1639 Derby Lane, submitted a document dated April 20, 1978, setting forth his views re the proposed development, which document is hereby made a part of these minutes by reference. Mr. Johnson said he favors including development fees as a condition of approval. 109 City Attorney Murphy said it isn't possible to condition the developer to pay fees that are not presently established by City ordinance. The conditions imposed are specific conditions that now exist and are enforceable by law. When the fee ordinance becomes operational, develop- ment fees can be imposed. Jean Beauchamp, an amateur historian, reminisced about the Diestelhorst Bridge which was constructed in 1915 and called the Pacific Highway Bridge. The bridge offered a cool, pleasant atmosphere; it was the community swimming hole, and dances were held there in the evenings. It is being threatened now by increased traffic according to Mrs. Beauchamp and she urged Council to close the bridge completely and utilize it as a bicycle/pedestrian bridge. She said it has survived two huge floods in years gone by, but now is being jeopardized by the threat of destruction from traffic. She fears the landmark will disappear with too much use. She urged Council to preserve it as a bridge between the past and the future. Coral Caldwell, 885 Caldwell Drive, expressed concern with the communi- cation and coordination betweeen the Planning Commission, Traffic and Parking Commission, and the Parks and Recreation Commission over the proposed.four-lane road through the park relative to the future antici- pated congestion in the park. She expressed fear that once the four- lane road is developed, the parking for the baseball diamonds will be J / lost forcing more parking congestion in Caldwell Park. She didn't see any future for additional area for parking within the park. She urged more coordination between City Commissions to bring about orderly develop- ment. Councilman Pugh assured Mrs. Caldwell that there is coordination and the development plans have been studied in consecutive sessions. He said the temporary plan to close Rio Drive in the park and move the parking toward the roadway is for the benefit of the people using the park, not for automobiles. He said the ball park parking would not be affected. Clark Hull, 1577 Benton Drive, doubted the right of a developer to exploit the land for private gain. He felt the proposed development is a monumental ripoff for the City of Redding and those who will live here for the next 100 years. 110 Scott Carter, residing 1 mile upriver from the Elks: Club, said he has some reservations about the proposed development. Geographically it is isolated by bridges and the river. The access by bridge is a night- mare because of the children attracted to the river. He said we can only speculate what the impact of the Delta Street extension will be. It is a serious problem. Mr. Carter proposed Council approve 2/3 (400) of the units tonight, to see how the traffic pattern develops, and then approve the other 1/3 (180) at a later date. \ As a last resort, Mr. Carter requested Council _consider a referendum so the people can determine whether or not they desire a four -lane street through the park. It would shift the responsibility off the Council. Councilman Fulton asked Mr. Carter if his proposal for development of 400 units now included the extension of Delta Street. Mr. Carter said yes, this is a compromise solution. Darrell Burrell, 5705 Fagan Drive, said he thought it was time Council looked very seriously toward another access across the river rather than development of a four -lane street: through the park. He said the General Plan for Redding suggests that Court Street be extended across the river and urged Council consideration of that plan now. Dick Riis, 940 Lincoln Street, said he was not against the development and believes the developer has the right to utilize his land. However, Mr. Riis raised the following points for Council consideration: 1. Council members for the last 20 years have worked toward the unique goal of acquiring both sides of the riverland from the Dam to Cypress Street Bridge for the use of the citizens forever more. Additional land is needed by the river. He urged City acquisition of the parcels by the river to insure that they will remain for the citizenry. In his opinion, the land proposed to be donated by the developer is insufficient. 2. He felt development of a two-lane street through the park would be sufficient at the outset. If traffic dictates the need for an additional two -lanes at a later date, accomplish it when the need is there. Building two lanes would lessen the costs to the City and the developer. He also felt the proposed street: location was not suitable. He said that although the ballparks are expensive today, he urged development of Delta Street for traffic flow through \�'� this area rather than adjacent to the park. 3. He urged that costs to the citizens and to the developer be delineated. Councilman Pugh said his concern was running the traffic along the ballparks and asked if Mr. Riis was suggesting moving the ballparks? Mr. Riis said the ballparks were placed there on a tentative basis and are not that expensive to relocate. Councilwoman Gard said that routing the traffic on Delta Street raises her concern for the residents there. Fred Hilger, Humboldt Financial Services, developer, offered remarks on comments that had been made throughout the hearing. 1 1 He said he has been advised by his engineering staff that no streets in the proposed development will have grades in excess of loo and was agreeable to Condition #48 imposing construction of roads with a grade not in excess of 10%. Mr. Hilger pointed out that traffic studies have been made including a 24-hour traffic count on the Diestelhorst Bridge; traffic conditions on Market Street at the intersection of Del Mar; peak hour counts on Market Street; how many turned left and how many turned right; counts at Lake Boulevard and on 99 South, etc., which studies have been sub- mitted to the City Public Works Department and Traffic Engineer. These studies show the intersections, the streets and traffic controls pro- posed are able to handle far more than what the project will impose. Mr. Hilger said that future development upstream on Quartz Hill Road may necessitate construction of a four -lane street from Benton Drive to Market Street in the future. With reference to constructing a two- lane road through the park, he said there is additional expense and problems related to improving two lanes of a street now and then coming back later to build the additional two lanes. The developer has offered to develop the four -lane street now at his expense. Mr. Hilger said there has been communication between City Commissions. He felt the constructive project produced by the City and the developer obviously displays such cooperation. He said the developer has gone further than they were compelled to in dedicating the riverfront property to the City. Mayor Demsher asked Mr. Hilger if he was amenable to the proposal of Scott Carter to develop 2/3 of the development now and the rest at a later date. Mr. Hilger said it is a totally unacceptable proposal, that the project is only viable when considered as a whole project. Dorothy Gilman, 650 Overhill Drive, asked who would be paying the balance of the proposed traffic light at Market Street if the developer was paying $25,000 and the entire cost was $100,000. City Attorney Murphy replied that the State would pay for two legs of the proposed stop light, the developer for one leg, and the City of Redding would pay for the fourth leg out of the general funds of the City. Mrs. Gilman asked why the proposed subdivision was being forced on the residents of Redding when there appears to be a lot of opposition to it Todd Fineberg, Attorney, said that in order to avoid litigation, he recommends an EIR be done on the proposed road alignment. He felt this measure of the proposal is too significant to place on the coattails of a tentative map. 111 MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick that the Public Hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes City Attorney Murpny asked Mr. Hilger if he has any objection to relocation of the four -lane street; i.e., if Council should determine that two lanes should go through on Delta Street and two lanes southerly from that location adjacent to the park, would he have any objection to that relocation or some other location between those two points. Mr. Hilger replied that it wouldn't mean construction of any more road, only a different position which would be okay with him. He said he would not object to this being Condition #49. 112 -y� City Attorney Murphy said, in rebuttal to challenges made during the course of the hearing, of the veracity of staff and the Planning Commission, that the laws of this country allow a land owner or developer to attain the highest and best use from his land. The laws will not allow the City to deny the use of land without paying due compensation to the owner. Inverse condemnation damages would be likely if the City took such adverse action. Mr. Murphy said the Council has the legal power to uphold the appeal, deny the appeal, or send it back to the Planning Commission. Mayor Demsher said the development fees for this proposed project would cost around $1,200,000 of which the developer would pay $300,000. He said the citizenry would be subsidizing to the extent of about $900,000. He asked if a condition could be imposed on the developer to pay a form of interim fees pending approval and adoption of a fee ordinance. City Attorney Murphy said that Council did not have an express vehicle for interim fees, that an EIR on fees would have to be completed prior to adoption of an ordinance. He advised Council that very likely the fee structure would be enacted prior to commencement of construction on this project as the final map needs to be filed prior to issuance of building permits. Councilman Kirkpatrick said he felt it would be improper to impose interim development fees on this developer unless all other developers were treated in a similar manner. Other members of Council concurred. Councilman Pugh restated his concern that Redding is going to grow and it can grow in a reasonable and organized manner. He felt that 1.3 units per acre is the lowest density imposed in the City. He stated that developments have to be worked in the planning process of the Ccity. �,\ Councilwoman Gard said she was assigned as Council liaison to the Plan- ning Commission and has watched the process and it really does work. She said consideration is given to what is the right of the property owner and of the citizens, and capricious decisions have not been made. She said Council members care what happens to Redding, but it has to be fair to the developers too. She urged members of the audience to persevere and say what they want the City to be - "We can say what we want to be." Mayor Demsher succinctly summed up the testimony offered adding that everyone felt anguish and concern for the growth Redding is experiencing. MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilman Pugh that the findings of the Planning Commission re the Tentative Map of Lake 1-71 Redding Estates Subdivision be ratified, that the appeal be denied and '\ the decision of the Planning Commission be upheld, and further that Conditions No. 48 and No. 49 as hereinbefore stated be added to the conditions of approval. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Councilmen - Fulton, Gard, Kirkpatrick, and Pugh Noes: Councilmen - Demsher Absent: Councilmen - None PRIVATE UTILITY EASEMENT -Graham & Williams - Correction of Legal Description MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Fulton approving \� the correction in the legal description contained in the Easement between the City of Redding, Harvard E. Graham and Blance A. Graham, and Carl V. Williams and Martha C. Williams, dated April 2, 1968. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes 1 1 There being no further business, at the hour of 11:30 P.M., Mayor Demsher declared the meeting adjourned. ATTEST: J! ll City Clerk 1 i APPROVED: Mayor 113
