BUENAVENTURA PROJECT - Land Acquisition Councilman Pugh abstained from discussion and voting on this item. City Manager Brickwood reviewed his memorandum to Council dated March 4, 1977 concerning acquisition of property re the Buenaventura Project. As a solution to the problem of finding additional funds to relocate owner -occupants in the Linden Avenue area, it is recommended that the Community Development Program be amended, as the only available source of funds is within the existing Community Development Block Grant. In order to fund the additional relocation housing payments, it will be necessary to reduce or eliminate some other project in the Community Development Program. It is estimated that the total com- bined supplemental payments authorized by this amendment should not exceed $60,000. It is suggested that the necessary funds for the addi- tional relocation housing payments be rebudgeted from the housing - rehabilitation loan program, and that Council adopt a resolution author- izing the additional payment. Mr. Brickwood noted that three full time field representatives will be working with the owner -occupants to assist them in finding housing, and that the representatives will contact such persons. He further stated that this resolution addresses itself only to owner - occupants, and that he is working on the problem of absentee landlords 1 1 1 53 with rental units. He hopes to have a report to Council on this matter at the next meeting.

The hour of 7:30 P.M. having arrived, Mayor Fulton opened the Public Hearing on Appeal re Use Permit UP -30-77 by Carrol Hammar 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 Memorandum from Director of Planning and Community Development dated March 4, 1977 The City Clerk advised Council that a letter has been received from Eric Ostling which states that Mr, and Mrs. Ostling oppose the Appeal. Associate Planner Perry reviewed the above referenced memorandum to Council which states that the Redding Planning Commission approved Use Permit UP -30-77, granting Carrol Hammar permission to operate a mobilehome park in the City and to expand the park by 18 additional spaces, subject to certain conditions. Mr. Hammar subsequently appealed the conditions of approval of the use permit. The applicant is opposed to the requirement that a 30 -foot wide strip of land along the southern property boundary be dedicated to the City of Redding for street and utility purposes. The location of the park, expansion, and proposed easement were shown on the Vu Graph. The position taken by the Commission was that each land owner is responsible for his share of the extension of needed streets along property lines and is also responsible for his share of the improvements of these rights of way where they relate directly to the development or are used as access. The Commission did not require installation of curbs, gutters, and sidewalks; nor did they require dedication of the 60 -foot -wide road easement along the eastern property boundary. Mr. Hammar appeared before Council. He requested that Council- man Demsher abstain from discussion and voting on this item, inas- much as Mr. Demsher is employed by the Shasta High School District and Mr. Hammar is a candidate for the Shasta High School District Board. City Attorney Murphy confirmed Mr. Demsher's assertion that there is not a conflict of interest as Mr. Hammar is not at this time a member of the School Board. Mr. Hammar questioned the need of a use permit from the City, noting that the use permit granted by the County should prevail as he has been continually building on this property and that, in his opinion, the construction has not been done in stages. 1 1 57 City Attorney Murphy stated that the County's jurisdiction ended when annexation became effective, and any subsequent construc- tion not specifically permitted by the County prior to annexation is subject to City regulations. Councilman Demsher said he believes the issue is whether Mr. Hammar is willing to dedicate an easement for street and utility purposes. Mr. Hammar stated that the only opposition to his appeal is from the Ostlings who do not live in the City and who have tried to get hire to put a road through to their property. He stated that there is a 30 -foot easement along the southern boundary of his property and that he has improved the easement from Churn Creek Road to the driveway into his mobilehome park. Mr. Hammar said he will not dedicate what is required unless the City guarantees that he will not b0orced to pay for the improvement of the dedicated area. Mr. Murphy said the City is unable to guarantee what is requested. He did state, however, that it iso,unlikely that Mr. Hammar will ever be compelled to pave the dedicated area without his consent, even if an assessment district is formed. M . Hammar asked Mr. Murphy what law requires that he dedicate land to the City for road easement. Mr. Murphy replied that the law provides that when a developer generates traffic which requires the development of an adjacent street or roadway contiguous to a subdivision or mobilehome park that is creating some of the traffic, the City can impose conditions upon the development to solve the traffic problem which will be generated. He noted that Mr. Hammar's mobilehome park is being expanded from an existing street by a "L" shaped area on his land and already dedicated as a private roadway to the benefit of Mr. Hammar and other neighbors, and it is reasonable for the City to require that he dedicate the front 30 feet of his property (that is already a private roadway easement) to the City as a public street. Mr. Hammar said he would be willing to dedicate the 30 foot portion from the driveway entrance to his mobilehome park (approximately 300 feet). There was discussion as to whether it would be possible for the City to develop the street in exchange for dedication of the land. Mr. Murphy stated that the City has a variety of procedures with respect to street improvement' and, if Council wishes, it can waive any street assessment in exchange for dedication of land. Goluncilman Anderson said he felt that Mr. Hammar should receive some sort of credit against future street assessments. Councilwoman Gard said she feels strongly that street dedications are very important, noting that there is access by easement all throughout the Cascade, Enterprise, and Buckeye areas. She stated that if the City abandons this policy, the taxpayer will pay the bill for acquisition of property to build roads. Mr. George Dymesich, who owns the property to the south of Mr. Hammar said that the property owners to the east of Mr'. Hammar's property did not fulfill their promise to provide a 30 -foot easement as 'a continuation of the easement to the east of Mr. Hammar's property. He believes that they have not acted in good faith -- that they can now use Mr. Hammar's easement for access to their property and so do not feel it necessary to provide an easement for street and utility purposes. The property to the east of Mr. Hammar's is not within the City. Mr. Dymesich owns the other half of the 60 foot easement. MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilwoman Gard that the Public Hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes with Councilman Pugh abstaining. Councilman Demsher stated that if Mr. Hammar is being asked to subsidize other property owners, perhaps it would be viable to use the value of the property he is dedicating against any future assess- ment district. Mr. Murphy stated that an alternative would be to have Mr. Hammar dedicate the portion that is already paved -- approximately 300 feet from the driveway entrance to the westerly boundary of his property. Public Works Director Arness noted that the exchange of right of way for street improvements has been used primarily on major str.eets where it benefits the public rather than private individuals . Otherwise, the taxpayers are paying for services for private developers. MOTION: Made by Councilwoman Gard, seconded by Councilman Demsher that the appeal be denied. Voting was as follows: =Ayes: Councilmen - Demsher and Gard Noes: Councilmen - Anderson and Fulton Absent: Councilmen - None Abstain: Councilmen - Pugh MOTION: Made by Councilman.Demsher, seconded by Councilwoman Gard that the foregoing motion be amended that upon dedication of the 30 foot easement, the value of that portion of the property to be dedi- cated east of the easterly side of Mr. Hammar's driveway be credited at today's value for any future street improvements, and that the use permit be granted. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes with Councilman Pugh abstaining MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilwoman Gard that Use Permit UP -30-77 be granted, subject to the performance of all conditions of said Use Permit (including Condition No. 5, the subject matter of said appeal), provided that the City shall give the applicant credit, computed on the basis of today's market value, for that portion of dedication lying east of the easterly edge of the applicant's driveway into the mobilehome park, towards any sub- sequent street improvements within the area of said dedication and as the result of an assessment district formation or other procedure in which the applicant is not a voluntary participant. The Vote: unanimous Ayes with Councilman Pugh abstaining. PUBLIC HEARING - Appeal of F. L. Chapter, et al of Use Permit UP -35-77 granted to Lewis McCaslin The hour of 7:30 P.M. having arrived, Mayor Fulton opened the Public Hearing re Appeal of F. L. Chapter, et al of Use Permit \ UP -35-77 granted to Lewis McCaslin. 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 Memorandum from Director of Planning and Community Development dated March 4, 1977 59 The City Clerk advised Council that a petition signed by approxi- mately twenty families in opposition to granting of Use Permit UP -35-77 has been received. Associate Planner Perry reviewed the aforementioned memorandum to Council. The applicant plans to construct duplexes on three individual 20,000 square foot lots located at 2120, 2136, and 2152 Marlene Avenue in a "U" Unclassified District, which property was zoned "R-2" Duplex prior to annexation. ,The area under considera- tion was shown on the Vu Graph. The Planning Commission approved the permit, subject to certain conditions, including approval by the Shasta County Health Department of sewage disposal system. The applicant has proposed that a common septic tank be used for each duplex. The following people appeared before Council in opposition to granting of the Use Permit: Frank Chapter Dave Heins Roger Martin Robert Foote Their ar'eas of concern include the possible sewage, problem and contamination of wells, the change in character of the neighborhood from primarily singly family to multiple family, thus lowering property values, and the effect of increased density upon traffic and schools: Mr. McCaslin, the applicant, submitted letters from James Lee and Ruth Marshall, signers of the petition, who stated that the petition was misrepresented to them and that they do not object to the duplexes. Mr. McCaslin said that when he purchased the property it was zoned ''R-2" and he was assured that his proposal to construct three duplexes would cause no problem. He said he plans to re- side in one of the units, and two other members of his family in- tend to reside in the other units, and that they will be well main- tained. MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilman Pugh that the Public Hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes In a discussion regarding the appeal, Council expressed concern about the prolifereation of septic tank systems within the area, and of the serious traffic problem on Alta Mesa which would be aggra- vated by increased density in the area. Councilman Demsher also mentioned the over -crowded school conditions and the sentiment expressed to maintain the area as a single-family residential neighborhood. MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilwoman Gard approving the appeal. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Councilmen - Anderson, Demsher, and Gard Noes: C ouncilmen - Pugh and Fulton Absent: Councilmen - None Councilman Anderson said he believes a study should be made regarding multiple family units on septic tanks and that the entire Enterprise area should be zoned as quickly as possible. Councilman Pugh concurred and added that thought should also be given as to the City's ability to provide other services to developments within the City as well as future annexations. M MANZANITA VILLAS SUBDIVISION - Tentative Map Councilman Pugh abstained from discussion and voting on this item.
