White's letter to Council with respect to insufficient designated parking
stalls for the handicapped in the right places. The Commission agreed that
the two stalls adjacent to the west Yuba Street entrance to the Mall are

entrance on the west side of the Mall and one in Parking Lot No. 11, south
of the Far East Cafe, on the east side of the Mall.

REQUEST TO CONSTRUCT TWIN ENGINE HANGARS AND EXTEND TAXIWAY FOR HANGARS -
Redding Municipal Airport
Airports Manager McCall reviewed his memo to Council dated July 5, 1978,
\\
0 stating that the preliminary 1978-79 budget contains $80,000 for construction
of six large twin engine hangars and extension of the taxiway to serve the
1
1
199
new hangars. Mr. McCall said that he has received firm requests for six
hangars of this type from local aircraft owners whose aircraft are based
at Redding Municipal Airport. The hangars will rent for $125.00 per month
and the investment will amortize in 10 years.
Mr. McCall said that the bid received from Port -A -Port in the amount of
$66,507.60 was good for 30 days. He advised that the time has lapsed and
steel prices have increased; however, Port -A -Port has agreed to hold the
price on this bid until consideration by Council tonight.
City Attorney Murphy said he did not oppose the recommendation but noted
that the 1978-79 budget has not been approved and because of the Propo-
sition 13 Initiative, it is possible that some of the contemplated projects
may be trimmed. Mr. Murphy said he is bringing this to the attention of
Council because both the City Manager and the Assistant City Manager are
not present at this meeting.
At this point, Mayor Demsher entered the meeting.
Airports Manager McCall said that both Mr. Brickwood and Mr. Courtney are
aware of the request and are in favor of it. He pointed out that Mr.
Brickwood co-signed his memo to Council dated July 5, 1978.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilwoman Gard
approving the recommendation of the Airports Commission for expenditure
of $13,000 for extension of the taxiway for hangars at Redding Municipal
Airport. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
Council members referred to a related item on the agenda with respect to
construction of six hangars as recommended by the Airports Commission.

COU14CIL AMBULANCE COMMITTEE REPORT - re City -County Ambulance Committee
meeting
Councilwoman Gard reviewed the City -Council Ambulance Committee recom-
mendations, dated July 6, 1978, which were submitted to Council. The
City -County Ambulance Committee met on July 5, 1978, and formalized three
recommendations: (1) dealing with rate increases for services, (2) granting
Memorial Hospital a license for second vehicle upon request (subject to
provisions of the Redding City Code), and (3) that all City and County
regulations that duplicate State regulations be removed unless State DA -0
regulations diminish in standards. Mrs. Gard and Mr. Kirkpatrick serve
as representatives of the Council on the City -Council Ambulance Committee
and both concur that the recommendations are a reasonable compromise.
Councilman Kirkpatrick said there is concern about the rising costs for
the excellent emergency care service offered and the Commission feels it
has negotiated to cover these costs. In reference to the third recom-
mendation, Mr. Kirkpatrick said the Committee is attempting to reduce
some of the bureacracy by eliminating duplication in effort.
City Attorney Murphy said that removing City regulations would require
a change by ordinance.

-�)\ C)
Todd Fineberg, Attorney, representing the Redding Ambulance Society, said
he concurs with the three recommendations.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilwoman Gard
approving the three recommendations of the City -County Ambulance Committee
and instructing the City Attorney to prepare the necessary document to
implement same. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes with Councilman Pugh abstaining.
PUBLIC WORKS PLANNING REPORT
Public Works Director Arness submitted the Public Works Planning Report
for July, 1978.
Public Works Director Arness reported that a meeting has been scheduled
with the Water Quality Control Board in Sacramento on July 12, 1978, to
attempt to motivate some action on federal funding for the infiltration
inflow project.
Councilwoman Gard asked the purpose of a project entitled "Traffic Control
Commission", which committee would parallel the Board of Administrative
Review to study traffic control and parking matters.
Mr. Arness said it is an effort to streamline programs and cut down on
the paper work.
Councilwoman Gard urged caution in bypassing a Commission where public
input is taken.
SANITARY LANDFILL - Change in Grades
Public Works Director Arness reviewed the actions taken by the Board of
Administrative Review and the Planning Commission with respect to changing
the grades at the sanitary landfill. Council was provided with a memo
from the Director of Planning and Community Development dated June 8,
1978, pertaining to ratification of the Negative Declaration on this land-
fill project together with an Environment Assessment prepared prior to
the Negative Declaration.
It was noted that because of the annexations of Enterprise and Cascade,
the amount of waste being placed in the landfill has been increased by
41 percent. Based on the present rate of filling, the design capacity
of the landfill will be reached by December of 1978. It is estimated a
joint landfill operation with the County probably would not occur until
1982-83; therefore, it is necessary for the City to either continue
operation at the present site or obtain an interim site. The major change
in the use of the present site is an increase in the height of the fill
area thus increasing the visibility of the operation. Height increases
will vary from zero feet at the north end to approximately thirty feet at
the south end.
Mr. Arness said it is staff's belief that the mitigating measures presented
in the Environmental Assessment will effectively reduce the basic concerns
expressed by those persons who have attended the meetings. The estimate
for mitigating measures to overcome the environmental impacts of odor,
dust, noise, leachate generation, trash, and the visual appearance and to
perform work required by the Water Quality Control Board is roughly $23,000.
City Attorney Murphy advised Council that even though the Planning Com-
mission has ratified the Negative Declaration, Council must also ratify
the findings as they are the decision-making body which has to approve
the cost of the work and authorize proceeding on the project. He said
if Council desires to act favorably, it must make specific findings that
there are no substantial impacts on the environment and that mitigating
measures have been proposed to be incorporated into the project.

Councilman Pugh asked if funding for this project is in the new budget.
Public Works Director Arness replied in the negative.
City Attorney Murphy asked if the project has to be acted on tonight.
Public Works Director Arness said that the City Manager and the Assistant
City Manager are in favor of the project and, because it is anticipated
that the landfill will be out of usable space by early 1979, it is recom-
mended that the project be started immediately.
Discussion ensued on whether there will be an increase in use of the City
landfill should the County initiate a charge for use of its facilities.
It was pointed out that the City would probably begin a program of charging
for large items such as tires, stumps, appliances, etc., but that curtailing
its use to some might encourage dumping rubbish alongside the roadsides and
streets. It was felt that if there is a notable increase in the use of
the facilities and it becomes a serious problem, controls may have to be
imposed.
Clark Hull, 1577 Benton Drive, questioned the possibility of reclaiming
some of the waste, such as the tires and metal which could be salvaged for
a profit, instead of burying these items. He referred to an Americology
Program being used in Milwaukee, Wisconsin where materials are sorted and
used for Generating electricity.
Councilman Pugh said the City has researched this and that it does not
appear economically feasible at this time.
Mayor Demsher pointed out that scavengers remove most of the metal.
Howard Thomas, 1805 Mesa Street, stated that trash and garbage is dumped
on Friday by City crews and remains uncovered until Monday. Mr. Thomas
also felt that since there is no control of the odor and flying papers
with the location of the dump in the bottom of a gully, control will be
impossible if the elevation is increased. He didn't feel that addition
of a row of trees would stop flying debris. Mr. Thomas also indicated
concern over the ditch that runs on the east side of the present landfill
which is filled with debris that will end up in the Linden area with the
first rains.
Public Works Director Arness said that the operating hours will be
reviewed in order to assure that the .refuse dumped on Friday is covered
by Saturday.
Councilwoman Gard felt it imperative that mitigation commence immediately.
She said that landfills do not make good neighbors and feels that the pro-
posed installation of fences and landscaping should begin promptly.
Mayor Demsher said that the problems of compacting and the work schedule
of the employees may have to be reviewed in order to provide protection
that the neighbors deserve.
At this point, Councilman Fulton entered the meeting.
Arnold Reed, 1810 Mesa Street, said his concern is not necessarily the
landfill itself, although he would prefer to see a golf course and motor-
cycle trail there, but he objects to the garbage trucks utilizing Mesa
and Pleasant Streets which is their shortest route to the landfill area.
He said there are a lot of children in this area and he would prefer that
the trucks use San Francisco Street which should be their access street
to the dump. He also stated that neither he nor_ other residents on Mesa
Street had been notified of prior hearings on this matter-.
202
Public Works Director Arness said he would investigate the routes the
trucks utilize.
Councilman Pugh noted that the landfill area has been used as a dump for
a good many years and that houses have been built adjacent to it. He
acknowledged that as early as 1949, there was talk of this area being
used for a golf course. Mr. Pugh said that searching for possible new
landfill sites has been difficult as there are few suitable areas isolated
from nearby homes.
Mr. Reed asked where the City would obtain the dirt should the project be
approved.
Mr. Arness replied that the City is mining dirt from the Buenaventura
area.
Mr. Reed said he could foresee a lot of grief to the neighborhood because
of the dust that will be created when the dirt is brought in to fill the
area, along with the existing problems of noise and flying debris.
Councilwoman Gard expressed concern that Mr. Reed had not been notified
of any of the hearings and asked staff to check on which areas were noti-
fied. She said that although the dump was a pre-existing use, the integrity
of the R-1 properties should remain. She felt Council has an obligation to
run the best possible landfill and to mitigate the existing complaints.
Mayor Demsher said that everyone would prefer a location for the landfill
adjacent to nothing which appears impossible. He said the joint program
with the County has serious drawbacks. He said in his review of the
project, he thinks the improvements will be aesthetically pleasing if the
job is done correctly. He felt the City has to move forward with this
landfill area until something more appropriate is found.
Mr. Reed asked about runoff from the landfill area.
Associate Engineer Hastings said the 6% slopes will cause the water to
run off the landfill faster with less percolation. He said northwest of
the area, the waters should run into the ditch which will go into the
Linden area and all waters upstream presently bypass the landfill area.
MOTION: Made by Mayor Demsher, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick ratifying
the decision of the Negative Declaration regarding the change in grades of
the sanitary landfill; and finding that the impacts on the environment,
which the initial study has determined exist, have been adequately mitigated.
The Vote: Unanimous Ayes

Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
The City Clerk advised Council that no written protests had been
received, and the Mayor Pro Tem ascertained that there were no
protests from the floor.
City Attorney Murphy reported that the need to amend the Conflict
of Interest Code for members of the City Council was due to the
ruling of the Fair Political Practices Commission that the City
Manager could not be covered in the same code as members of Council;
therefore, a separate ordinance has been prepared for the City
Manager. The Conflict of Interest Code for designated officers
and employees has been amended to include Planning Commissioners
as required by the Fair Political Practices Commission.
