MEMBERSHIP OF CITY COMMISSIONS
Councilman Anderson reported that he and Councilwoman Gard had been
charged with evaluating the various City Commissions as to the advisa-
bility of increasing the membership of some or all.
Mr. Anderson reported that the Planning and Parks and Recreation
Commissions are seven -member commissions, and it is recommended
that membership on the Airports and Traffic and Parking Commissions
be increased to seven.
The Committee believes that it is important to maintain the leadership
and experience of the present membership of Commissions and, where
appropriate, these commissioners should be retained. However, as
vacancies occur and new appointments are to be considered, it is
recommended that geographic balance and representation of the entire
City be achieved.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman Demsher
approving the recommendation as aforestated. The Vote-, Unanimous
Ayes
POWER GENERATION
Councilman Pugh reviewed his memorandum to Council dated April 15,
1977 re Power Generation Recommendation, which memorandum is
made a part of these minutes by reference. The Power Committee is
recommending a three -pronged effort to obtain the City's own source
of supplemental power as follows:
1. Consideration of Redding's participation in the Calaveras
County Water District Hydroelectric Project as a member
of NCPA. In order for the City to preserve its opportunity
to fully .consider participation in this project, it is immed-
iately necessary that Council authorize Redding's partici-
pation in the acquisition of a 60 day or more option from the
District, and in the cost of a preliminary engineering eval-
uation by R. W. Beck. The estimated total NCPA cost for
accomplishing these two steps is $15,000.00 of which $5,000
is presently budgeted. Redding's share of the new cost would
be $857.00.
2. Council authorize staff to have prepared and filed the necessary
applications to the Federal Government and to the State for a
license to generate power in the Sacramento River at the approxi-
mate location of the present ACID diversion dam.
3. Council authorize staff to file a similar license application for
generation at the site of the Red Bluff diversion dam.
The estimated cost of the initial step for Items 2 and 3 is
between $5,000. and $10,000.
107
10�, P
It is the judgment of the Power Committee that the City must pursue several
avenues to the solution of the supplemental power generation problem as
any of the routes could have obstacles that the City may not be able to overcome.
1:
Councilman Demsher agrees that Council should keep its options open
and should participate in the NCPA project to a point, but he would
hope that the license status for the ACID and Red Bluff projects would
be known before a final decision on Calaveras is necessary.
City Attorney Murphy stated that it is very difficult to say at what
speed any of these projects will develop; none have been approved
by the State yet and all will need State approval. He noted that the
City will have opportunities to back out of the projects during the
next 18 months.
Mr. Demsher said he is concerned that -the Calaveras Project will
cost the City about $1 million a year for several years before we
need supplemental .po-wer'_, _andvw;e don ''t knb.w at what :pr:ice,we,.can-.
sell our un -needed power.
Mr. Pugh said that many decisions will have to be made by NCPA;
i.e. , what cities will participate, what each City's power costs
will be; what the power can be sold for in the event the City does not
use it, etc. Council will negotiate its contract with NCPA and can
either stay in or get out of the project, depending on what our power
costs will be and what we can sell the power for if we can't use it.
He noted that we may have losses for two or three years but can make
it up in subsequent power savings.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilman
Anderson approving the recommendation of the Power Committee.

Planning and Community Development Director Harris reviewed
his memorandum to Council dated April 14, 1977, concerning
proposed "RM" Residential Zoning Districts, which memorandum

mendation of the Planning Commistsion'.arid.:staff that five 'new
residential classifications, that are directly related to densities
shown on the General Plan, be incorporated into the Zoning
Ordinance.
Councilwoman Gard questioned the requirement that "Open
Space shall be improved", noting that canyon areas could
pose a problem.
Planning Consultant Lyle Stewart stated that Open Space desig-
nated on the General Plan would not be included in an "RM"
District; native landscaping would apply in such areas. Mr.
Stewart said the purpose of establishing the "RM" Districts
is to assure consistency between the General Plan and zoning.
The State is concerned with compliance and, as the proposed
ordinance is written, there is consistency.

SECTION 312 REHABILITATION LOAN PROGRAM
Planning and Community Development Director Harris advised
Council that HUD has invited the City of Redding to participate in the
Section 312 Rehabilitation Loan Program in which loans are available
to investor owners as well as owner occupants. The loans are in
larger amounts than is provided in the rehabilitation loan program
approved by Council for owner occupants only, and the loans are
direct loans from the Federal Government to the borrower. The
City's role is to assist the applicants in preparation of their loan
packages, presenting them to HUD and to provide inspection ser-
vices during rehabilitation. Council was advised that the processing
of such loans could be accomplished with present staff.
112
Councilman Anderson asked the maximum amount that could be
borrowed and at what interest rate.
He was advised that the maximum loan may not exceed $17,500,
and the interest rate is 3%.
Mr. Anderson asked if this program is designed for low income
property owners.
Housing Administrator Henson stated there is a priority for low
and middle income property owners and it applies only to property
in designated neighborhoods, such as Magnolia, Linden Avenue,
and Freebridge. He added that the purpose of the program is to
rehabilitate substandard units.
Councilman Anderson indicated he has concerns about subsidizing
property owners who could obtain conventional loans.
Mr. Henson said that these loans are intended for people who cannot
get regular financing.
Councilman Demsher said he understands the concern expressed by
Councilman Anderson but he feels the program is worthwhile. He
asked if there has been abuse of programs of this nature in other
areas.
Planning Consultant Lyle Stewart said he has been involved in a
program in Salem, Oregon in which approximately 3, 000 loans were
made and he saw no abuse of the program. He noted that HUD has
its way of establishing priorities, and added that financial statements
must be filed by the applicants. Mr. Stewart said that very often
landlords have to rehabilitate property to bring it up to code and this
is a means by which they can accomplish the needed improvements.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman
Demsher authorizing staff to provide administrative services necessary
to implement the Section 312 program in the City of Redding. The Vote:
Unanimous Ayes

Traffic Concerns in Enterprise Area and Elsewhere
The Traffic and Parking Commission made a field trip on March
17, 1977, covering congested spots in the Enterprise Area and
elsewhere in the City. Council was supplied with a list of the
needs that were observed. The Commission believes that four
locations are particularly important and recommends that con-
sideration be given as follows:
A. Signalization of the intersection of Cypress and Larkspur, If
to .encourage use of Maraglia and Larkspur as an alternate
access to the Cypress 5 Shopping Center and relieve the
Cypress -Hilltop intersection.
B. The improvement of the Hartnell -Alta Mesa intersection by
widening the northbound approach to provide two approach
lanes, and by creating a left turn lane for westbound traffic
on Hartnell turing left onto Alta Mesa.
C.. Sidewalks on Alta Mesa are needed for safety, and our
present policies regulating sidewalk installation should be
reviewed to see if a means can be found to provide them.
D. The extension of State Hwy. 273 (Pine Street) northward to
Trinity Street and thence to Market Street should be con-
sidered as a relief to the Eureka -Market intersection, and
114
steps taken to secure desirable corner-roundings before
property is further developed. The possibility should be
studied with Caltrans.
There was considerable discussion regarding the aforestated
items. Council expressed its interest in sidewalk construction
not only on Alta Mesa but elsewhere, and urged staff to continue
working towards this goal. It was the consensus of Council that
the Traffic and Parking Commission should work with the
Planning Commission and Planning Consultant to resolve the
problem areas cited and that consideration be given to such
matters in developing the General Plan for the Enterprise area.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilman
Demsher referring the items listed by the Traffic and Parking
Commission to the Planning Commission and Planning Consultant
for consideration. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
OFF STREET PARKING - New County Jail
The Traffic and Parking Commission recommends that steps be taken

facility regarding the E.I.R. , and has stresed the parking problem and
the need for adequate off street parking.
Council was in agreement that the Mayor should forward a letter to
the Shasta County Board of Supervisors expressing the City's concern
in this matter.
