GROWTH MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE - Shasta County Non -Attainment Area Plan Recommendation Mayor Demsher reported on the meeting of the Growth Management Committee and staff personnel at which time the draft copy of the Shasta County Non - Attainment Area Plan was reviewed. It is the position of the Committee and staff that air pollution is a regional problem which must be dealt with on that basis, noting that a good portion of the air pollution experienced in the basin surrounding Redding originates in the counties to the south, where agricultural burning is extensive. It is also recognized that some of it is locally generated through exhaust emissions, from trucks and automobiles and certain other burning activity. It is the recommendation of the Committee and staff that Council indicate its willingness to cooperate in any study and subsequent program to help reduce the amount of pollution. There appears to be no real value in approaching the air pollution control problem on a non -regional basis. 1 1 1 379 Councilwoman Gard said she would like Council to endorse the draft of the Shasta County Non -Attainment Area Plan and believes the Board of Super- visors should be commended for adopting this Plan which was prepared after careful consideration of all facets of air pollution and contains specific recommendations for reduction of pollutants in our area. MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick that Council approve the recommendation of the Committee and staff and indicate to the Pollution Control Officer Council's willingness to cooperate in any study and subsequent program to help reduce the amount of pollution.

Councilman Fulton noted that the tabulation listing all the bidders was not attached to the recommendation as is the usual practice. Electric Director Simpson said he regretted that the tabulation of bidders was not included in the recommendation and said he did not have the information with him. Mr. Simpson explained that on power transformer bids, manufacturers are required to provide information regarding kilowatt loss at no load and kilowatt loss at full load. He noted that some manu- facturers use copper conductors which results in less kilowatt loss. The RTE Corporation does use copper conductors and this was a factor in deter- mining that they were the evaluated low bidder. He further noted that there was less than to difference in the two evaluated low bidders. MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick approving the recommendation of the City Manager that Bid Schedule No. 1049, 15/20/25 MVA Power Transformer, be awarded to RTE Corporation, the evaluated low bidder, in the amount of $198,220.00.

Electric Director Simpson replied that the low bid was reviewed with the bidder prior to presentation to Council. MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Fulton accepting the EIR on the proposed addition to the Canby Electric Substation, Bid Schedule No. 1058, and finding that, in accordance with Section 15088 of the California Administrative Code, changes or alterations have been required and incorporated into the project which mitigate or avoid the significant environmental effects thereof as identified in the final environmental impact report.

Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Fulton, Gard, Kirkpatrick, Pugh, and Demsher Noes: Council Members - None Absent: Council Members - None COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT REHABILITATION PROGRAM - Amendment No. 6 Planning and Community Development Director Harris reviewed his memo to 1111,� Council dated December 13, 1978, stating that Amendment No. 6 to the % Community Development Rehabilitation Program would provide deferred payment rehabilitation loans at three percent to finance sewer assessments to qualified owner occupants in sewer assessment districts. It also provides 1 1 1 381 that these loans could be converted to a grant if the property owners bring their residences up to the City's housing rehabilitation standards. Mr. Harris said that it is estimated that there are 24 families in the Cascade area with assessments totaling $85,000 who would potentially qualify for these loans. Funds to finance the program are available from monies carried over from the original three-year Community Development Block Grant program. It is recommended that the budget be amended and money allocated to urban beautification be transferred to the rehabilitation program. A resolution approving these amendments has been prepared for Council consideration. Councilwoman Gard asked if future Community Development money will be available for urban beautification. Mrs. Gard expressed concern that the Citizens Advisory Committee and Community Development Board were not aware of the proposed transfer of funds. Housing and Redevelopment Administrator Henson replied that in order to provide immediate relief to persons in the North Bonnyview Sewer Assessment District (Cascade) who are in great need of help, there was not time to refer this to the Citizens Advisory Committee or Board for review before bringing the recommendation to Council. He noted that it is perfectly within the Council's right to make the decision to utilize the money for this special project. Mr. Henson further stated it is felt it will not be appropriate to use Community Development money for urban beautification in the future. The three-year program basically commits the dollars available to specific projects and the program would have to be amended to regain the monies for the beautification program. Councilwoman Gard asked if the entire $85,000 will be required for the sewer assessment district. Mr. Henson replied that it will take that amount plus additional monies, assuming everyone that is eligible participates in the program. MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick amending the original three-year Community Development budget by transferring $50,000 allocated to Urban Beautification to Housing Rehabilitation. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick that Resolution No. 78-240 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding approving amendments to the Rehabilitation Loan Policy adopted by the City Council Resolution No. 75-86.

Councilman Pugh said that staff should write a letter to the Citizens Advisory Committee and the Community Development Board explaining why this item was handled in this manner.

The effect of the proposed rate change would be to increase the license tax imposed within the Parking and Business Improvement Area in the following categories: 1. For the first 1000 square feet of usable floor area, the rate would go from 60� per square foot to 65� per square foot; 2.

PARKING PROHIBITION - Churn Creek Road near Enterprise High School Traffic Engineer Hamilton reported that in regular session on December 11, 1978, the Traffic and Parking Commission considered the recommendation of the Traffic Engineer and the Police Department to prohibit parking at all times except Sunday on the east side of Churn Creek Road from 140 feet south of Del Sol Place to 260 feet south of Camino Court, and on the west side of Churn Creek Road from Linda Lane to 260 feet south of Camino Court. Mr. Hamilton said that.the prohibition of parking will permit full use of the 40 ft. paved section for moving traffic, improve visibility at driveways and side streets, and increase pedestrian safety. He indicated the proposal has the support of the High School and the Church of Latter Day Saints. Opposition was expressed by letter from George Theobald representing the Churn Creek Medical Center. The Commission voted unanimously to recommend the parking prohibition to Council. Mayor Demsher and Councilman Fulton questioned whether the loss of parking would be detrimental to the area in that it might shift parking to the side streets in front of residences. Mr. Hamilton replied that although the prohibition of parking would eliminate 50-60 parking spaces, the High School recognizes the safety factor of the pedestrians. He noted that the side streets in the neighborhood will be utilized more for parking, but added that parking on Churn Creek has been sporadic so it is not a matter of moving 50 cars. With respect to Mr. Theobald's opposition, Councilman Pugh said that he had always been able to find a parking spot in the Medical Center area. Councilman Kirkpatrick noted that this area has sporadic parking because of the different hours of classtime kept by the students; he indicated that the parking areas are not full at all times. He pointed out that making a left turn into the High School is difficult and dangerous at the present time. Mr. Hamilton stated that by removing the parking on the street, the danger of making left turns into the High School will be eased. He also pointed out that there are no sidewalks which makes it unsafe for the pedestrians now. Councilman Fulton noted that the letter opposing the prohibition that was received from George Theobald, representing the Churn Creek Medical Center, was not included in the packet and he requested a copy. Mr. Hamilton said he would see that Councilman Fulton received a copy. MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Kirkpatrick approving the recommendation of the Traffic and Parking Commission to prohibit parking at all times except on Sunday on the east side of Churn Creek Road from 140 feet south of Del Sol Place to 260 feet south of Camino Court, and on the west side of Churn Creek Road from Linda Lane to 260 feet south of Camino Court and instructing the City Attorney to prepare the necessary resolution. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Council Members - Gard, Kirkpatrick, Pugh, and Demsher Noes: Council Members - Fulton Absent: Council Members - None 113,6 384 CHANGE IN PARKING HOURS - Portion of California Street Parking Facility Traffic Engineer Hamilton reported that in regular session on December 11, 1978, the Traffic and Parking Commission voted unanimously to recommend to Council that the present parking prohibition of parking from 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. in the California street parking structure be changed to permit parking until 2:00 a.m. in the nonstructural at -grade portion which lies between Butte and Yuba Streets and adjacent to the alley. Mr. Hamilton indicated that this proposal has the approval of the Downtown Mall Associ- ation and the Police Department. Mr. Hamilton further added that this change would permit evening parking for patrons of the Oddfellows and the Post Office Bar and Restaurant. Dick Burton, 5760 Maynard Road, Palo Cedro, proprietor of the Post Office, requested that the area recommended by the Traffic and Parking Commission for parking until 2:00 a.m. be extended southerly, half way to Placer Street. He indicated that there is a pedestrian exit into the alley at this point. He said he has observed that patrons will park in the area closest to where they intend to go and not pay any attention to the signing. He believes his patrons will park directly across from his establishment and will be �j subject to tickets if the area isn't extended. Mr. Hamilton said that Mr. Burton's request has not been presented to the Traffic and Parking Commission. He indicated that he had shared Mr. Burton's concern with the Police Department and they did not endorse his request as they feel that the ability to adequately mark off one section permitting parking from another section that does not permit parking makes enforcement difficult. Councilman Pugh asked if perhaps barriers were needed rather than signing to distinguish one area from another. With the concurrence of other Council Members, Mayor Demsher referred this item back to the Traffic and Parking Commission and requested also that the Downtown Mall Association be apprised of Mr. Burton's request. MOTION: Made by Councilman Fulton, seconded by Councilwoman Gard referring this matter back to the Traffic and Parking Commission for recommendation. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes MODIFICATION OF PARKING PROHIBITION - Old Library Parking Lot Traffic Engineer Hamilton reported that in regular session on Monday, December 11, 1978, the Traffic and Parking Commission voted unanimously to recommend that Resolution No. 75-74 be modified to also except Parking Lot No. 5 from the 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. parking prohibition, to permit overnight parking by tenants of the Lorenz Hotel. Mr. Hamilton noted that �\ Captain Dawson of the Police Department has indicated concurrence. y� MOTION: Made by Councilman Kirkpatrick, seconded by Councilwoman Gard approving the aforestated recommendation and instructing the City Attorney to prepare the necessary resolution.

A breakdown of charges was given to Council. Mr. McCall said the Airports Commission further recommends that the lease be granted for a two-year period renewable by the City Manager for one year if so recommended by the Airports Manager. Councilman Fulton asked how the Commission arrived at the figures quoted noting that the increase appears substantial. Airports Manager McCall said the square footage utilized by each company was taken into consideration along with the City's related costs. Councilman Pugh said he favors a two-year non-renewable lease. He noted that with the possibility of a new terminal in the future, he did not want to mislead the lessee into thinking these figures would be appropriate for a third year, when, in fact, they may need to be increased. Other Council Members concurred. MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilwoman Gard approving the recommendation of the Airports Commission that the total income from Hertz Rent-A-Car and Avis Rent-A-Car be increased to an annual rate of $3025.00 for each of the services at the Redding Municipal Airport, but that the lease be granted for two years only on a non-renewable basis, and instructing the City Attorney to prepare the necessary document.

Councilman Pugh reiterated his preference for a two-year non-renewable lease, the same as the leases approved for Hertz Rent-A-Car and Avis Rent-A-Car. Other Council Members concurred. MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilwoman Gard approving the recommendation of the Airports Commission that the total income from National Rent-A-Car be increased to an annual rate of $745.00 at Redding Municipal Airport, but that the lease be granted for two years only on a non-renewable basis, and instructing the City Attorney to prepare the necessary document.
