Mrs. Hope Peterson
In a letter to Council dated September 14, 1977, Mrs. Hope
Peterson questioned water rates and the manner in which water
meters are read.
Mrs. Peterson appeared before Council and stated she is con-
cerned about the honesty of the meter readers , noting that
�.
recently she confronted one of the meter readers and was ad33
-
vised that her meter had not been read because the employee
could not locate it. According to Mrs. Peterson, this was true
with respect to other residents in the neighborhood. The meter
reader told her that when they are unable to locate the meter,
a green tag is made out and a service man from the City comes
out to locate and read the meter.
Mrs. Peterson referred to the tabulation of water utility bills
which she submitted with her letter, and called attention to
the large increase in units used in August over July, 1977
(300 in August vs 76 in July) . She also referred to the low
water rates in Sacramento vs Redding rates.
Assistant City Manager Courtney stated that the City has had
to put new meter readers in the field and has had to train them
on the job. He said that undoubtedly the meter was misread in
July which would account for the large usage indicated on the
August bill. He noted that it is possible for the meter to mal-
function and show less water consumption than was actually
used but it is not possible for the meter to show consumption
greater than actual usage. Mr. Courtney said that a service
man was sent to the Peterson residence and verified that the
August reading was correct.
252
Mrs. Peterson suggested that Council apply for Federal funds
for needed improvements in the water system, thus offering
some relief to the citizens of Redding who otherwise will be
forced to let their shrubs and lawns die for lack of water.
Councilman Pugh stated that the City has received grants and
loans for water system improvements; however, the City has
outlived a water system that was built many years ago and
should have been updated. Mr. Pugh acknowledged that the
water rates are high but said that the Cascade, Enterprise,
and Redding areas are all water deficient, and the increase is
needed to insure an adequate water supply. He mentioned that
if citizens had not conserved water this summer because of
the drought, it is doubtful that the City would have been able
to supply the demand.
Councilwoman Gard stated that when the water rate increase
issue was first brought up, Council referred it to a committee
and the matter was thoroughly studied, with the conclusion that
the rate increase had to be adopted.
Councilman Demsher noted that this community has been a high
water user per capita. He mentioned that Sacramento will
probably have to increase its water rates as it is subsidizing
its water utility. He noted that Redding does not subsidize any
of its utilities.
The complaints registered by Mrs. Peterson were referred to
the City Manager for further investigation.
Tri -Aerial Enterprizes
MOTION: Made by Councilman Pugh, seconded by Councilwoman
Gard ratifying the action taken by Council in a telephone poll

J diving activities on the afternoon of September 17, 1977 in the open
1 field between the Civic Auditorium and the Posse Grounds.

253
Mr. Sperry advised Council that the City called for bids on
improvement bonds for this assessment district on July 18,
1977. At the public hearing held on this same date, Council
approved modifications of the project which reduced the amount
required in bond sales by about 35/0. The bond underwriter has
oversold the bond issue and has asked if it would be acceptable
to modify the customary equal annual debt service schedule.
Council indicated it would like Mr. Sperry to submit a more
formal structure of the proposal so that the financial difference
can be evaluated. It was also recommended that the property
owners be advised of the proposal.
PUBLIC HEARING - re Moratorium for Sewer Connections in the
Area Tributary to the Twin View Sewer
Treatment Plant
The hour of 7:30 P.M. having arrived, Mayor Fulton opened
the Public Hearing to consider a moratorium for sewer con-
nections in the area tributary to the Twin View Sewer Treat-
ment Plant.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City
Clerk:
Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
Report and Recommendation of Public Works Director
dated September 16, 1977
The City Clerk advised Council that no written protests had
been received.
Mr. Arness reported that originally staff had intended to
request a moratorium on sewer connections in the area
tributary to the Twin View Sewer Treatment Plant; however,
the City now has the ability to spray irrigate on adjoining
property and it appears that a sewer connection ban is not
required at the present time. Mr. Arness said that staff �C
does recommend that the installation of water conservation
devices in all new construction in that area be mandated.
Councilman Pugh asked if the temporary control plan would
accommodate units under construction and for which building
permits have been issued. Mr. Arness stated that was correct.
He further stated that those not yet under plan could be advised
that there is a possibility that sewer connections could not
occur until October 31, 1978 under certain circumstances.
Elmer Roesner asked if the water conservation devices would
be required in his subdivision in which the sewer and water
lines are already in. He was advised that this mandate would
not apply to his subdivision.
Dean Roesner, a building contractor, said he believes if water
saving devices are to be required in the Twin View area he
thinks they should be required in all areas of the City.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by
Councilman Pugh that the Public Hearing be closed. The Vote:
Unanimous Ayes
Councilman Demsher said he thinks Dean Roesner's statement
is well taken and he would generally agree with that concept;
254
however, he noted that this recommendation re installation
of water saving devices is to keep a moratorium from
occurring. If a developer is not willing to install such de-
vices, perhaps a moratorium might be needed.
Councilman Pugh said he feel's the concept of requiring
water saving devices on new construction throughout the
City should be looked at.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Anderson, seconded by
Councilman Pugh approving the recommendation of staff
re installation of water saving devices, and instructing the
City Attorney to prepare the necessary document. The Vote:
Unanimous Ayes
Councilman Pugh stated that if the Council -staff committee
finds that a moratorium is necessary in the future with
respect to sewer connections in that area, it can so recom-
mend to Council and an urgency ordinance can be adopted.
APPROVAL OF PAYROLL AND ACCOUNTS PAYABLE REGISTERS
MOTION: Made by Councilman Anderson, seconded by Councilman
Pugh that Accounts Payable Register No. 6, check nos. 52939 to 53187,

GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT GPA -1-77
Planning and Community Development Director Harris submitted the
r•.ecommendation of the Planning Commission re GPA -1-77. Mr.
Harris reported that at a special meeting on September 16, 1977 the
Commission considered the General Plan Amendment of Humboldt
Financial Services, Inc. , which Council had referred back to them
for report and recommendation. It is the Commission's recommendation
that the General Plan be amended to allow a maximum of 609 dwelling
units within the property owned by the applicant. The Commission,
with the consent of the applicant, rejected the concept of duplexes along
Benton Drive, but did recommend that the small neighborhood commer-
cial center be retained. The Commission also recommended that the
property of Humboldt Financial Services, Inc. be annexed to the City
and that the 190 acres of property offered to the City be acquired. It
is suggested that no action be taken on the acquisition until a recom-
mendation has been received from the Parks and Recreation Commission.
Council was in general agreement that the traffic impact probably would
be reduced with the inclusion of the neighborhood commercial center.
Councilman Fulton stated that he wished to go on record that, although
he has no objection to amending the General.Plan, he is not in accord
with the concept of the entire project. He does not believe it is the
proper place for this type of development.

doesn't want to give anyone the feeling that all of the problems have
been solved as they have not.
TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP - Shasta Enterprises
Planning and Community Development Director Harris reported that
at a special meeting on September 16, 1977 the Planning Commission
considered the proposed modification to the conditions of approval of
the Tentative Subdivision Map for Shasta Enterprises, as requested by
Council. The Commission recommends that Condition 20 be amended
deleting the wording re hiking and scientific access, as requested by
the applicant, and that Condition 21 be amended as follows:
�D 21. ''The area designated not a part of the subdivision shall
be included in the subdivision either as a single parcel
or by extending individual lines through the area.''
Mr. Harris noted that although the modification to No. 21 allows the
developer a choice with how to treat the lower area, the owner's
attorney indicated at the meeting that they would retain the area as
a separate parcel.
MOTION: Made by Councilwoman Gard, seconded by Councilman Pugh

DEMOLITION OF STRUCTURES - Linden Canyon Area
Public Works Director Arness submitted a tabulation of bids received
and opened on September 13, 1977 for the demolition of structures in
the Linden Canyon area, Bid Schedule No. 972. Mr. Arness reported
that neither the low bidder nor the next low bidder possess the proper
contractor's licenses to perform the indicated work. The third bidder
is qualified to perform the project; however, his bid is $3,250 over
the Engineer's estimate. Mr. Arness feels that due to the short
bidding time, other contractors in the area who are qualified to perform
the project were not made aware of the project. It is recommended
that Council reject all bids and allow the Public Works Department to
readvertise with the intent of acquiring a greater number of qualified
bidders.
Mr. Whitmire, the third bidder on the project, voiced his objections
to this course of action. He stated that the project was properly
advertised and if it is readvertised he will be at a disadvantage as
other bidders already know what he bid. He said he would like an
opportunity to negotiate the price with the Public Works Director.
After discussion of the bidding procedure on this project, Council
indicated its agreement with Mr. Whitmire's proposal to negotiate
a price for the project with the Public Works Director.
MOTION: Made Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilman Pugh
that Resolution No. 77-191 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council
of the City of Redding declaring that the work described in Bid Schedule
No. 972 for the demolition of structures in the Linden Canyon area can
be performed more economically by day labor or the materials or
supplies furnished at a lower price in the open market.
