OLD CITY HALL
Councilwoman Gard read the Council Committee Report dated November 17, 1977
regarding preservation of the Old City Hall, which report is made a part of
these minutes by reference. The architectural firm employed to assess the
feasibility of preserving the Old City Hall has submitted a report which states
that the building appears to be in very good condition and concluded that the
building can be structurally rehabilitated at an estimated cost of between -,
$25,000 to $30,000. This estimate was based on the assumption that the
building can qualify for certain building -code exemptions under the State
Historical Building Code. It is the recommendation of the Committee and the
Civic Arts Commission that Council authorize staff to proceed with an appli-
cation to have the building placed on the National Register. In addition, it
is recommended that a request be made to include Fire Station No. 1 on the
National Register since the building has been referred to throughout the State
as a classic example of "Art -Deco" architecture. Registration provides a number
of incentives for preservation of historic properties, including special building
codes to facilitate the restoration, and grants for restoration. Inclusion
on the National Register will allow the City to allocate Community Development
Funds for the rehabilitation, as well as allow the City to apply for other
grant funds not otherwise available. Potential uses of the building are being
reviewed and the Committee will submit a recommendation to Council when more
specifics are available.
Dr. Justin Howland addressed Council on this matter, noting that his interest
in this project is through the Rotary Club which is interested in getting a
Community Center started. It is felt that the Old City Hall would be an
ideal building to house such a center.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Anderson, seconded by Councilman Demsher approving
the recommendation of--the7Gommittee and the Civic Arts Commission re authorizing
staff to proceed with an application to have the Old City Hall and Fire Station
No. 1 placed on the National Register. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
MODIFICATION OF EXTENDED FIRE PROTECTION AGREEMENT
MOTION: Made by Councilman Anderson, seconded by Councilwoman Gard approving
a modification of the Extended Fire Protection Agreement between the City of %Ily
Redding and County of Shasta; and authorizing the Mayor to execute same.
The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
PLACER ROAD ANNEX NO. 1
Councilwoman Gard abstained from discussion and voting on this item.
Planning and Community Development Director Harris reviewed his memorandum
to Council dated November 25, 1977 regarding Placer Road Annex No. 1. Earlier
this year Council authorized proceeding with the Placer Road Annex No. 1, %S�
320
submitted by John Frank, subject to requiring that the annexing property
be detached from the Centerville Community Services District and that the
Rivers property containing 5.5 acres also be included. A Vu Graph illus-
trating the location of subject properties was shown to Council.
Mr. Harris noted that the Local Agency Formation Commission concluded its
hearings on the matter and approved the annexation with a revised boundary.
The boundaries as approved by LAFCO excluded the 5-1/2 acre Rivers parcel.
This parcel was excluded because the Centerville Community Services District
required the payment of a fee to cover the prorated share of the District
indebtedness as a condition of detachment and, as Mr. Rivers had no interest
in the annexation, he indicated no willingness to pay the required fee.
The Board of Supervisors will proceed with the detachment and annexation as
provided for in the Government Code if Council consents to this procedure
(Reorganization Act). It is the recommendation of staff that Council approve
the revised boundary and consent to the reorganization and annexation of the
John Frank parcel.
In a discussion of this matter, although Council indicated its concern over
the creation of an irregular boundary by the exclusion of the Rivers property,
it was conceded that such annexation would not create an island.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Anderson, seconded by Councilman Demsher approving
the revised boundary and consenting to the reorganization and annexation of
Placer Road Annex No. 1 by the Board of Supervisors of Shasta County under
the Reorganization Act. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes with Councilwoman Gard
abstaining.

Planning Commission Recommendation dated 11/17/77
The City Clerk advised Council that no written protests had been filed.
Planning and Community Development Director reviewed the recommendation
of the Planning Commission as contained in his memorandum to Council
dated November 17, 1977, which memorandum is made a part of these minutes
by reference. The area under consideration for rezoning was shown on the
Vu Graph.
Mr. Harris reported that Dorr Grover of Oak Ridge Associates, an adjoin-
ing property owner, has expressed concern regarding the extension of
Rosaline Avenue, and it is recommended that the Public Hearing be con-
tinued to 7:30 P.M., December 5, 1977 to allow staff time to work with
both property owners in resolving the issue.
Mr. Dave Packard, representing Mercy Hospital, advised Council that his
client has agreed to quit claim to the City of Redding that portion of
Octavia Street fronting on their property, and that the adjoining
property owner has agreed to withdraw any objections to the rezoning if
this is done.

Walton Gill, representing Oak Ridge Associates, the adjoining property
owner, stated that although his client is in accord with the abandon-
ment of that portion of Octavia Street to the City by quit claim, it is
felt that access to his property should be provided by the extension of
Rosaline Avenue. He said his client would be happier if this were
included as a condition.
There was discussion as to the location of the future extension of
Rosaline Avenue by Council, staff, and representatives of Mercy Hospital
and Oak Ridge Associates.

PUBLIC HEARING - Abandonment Application A-5-77
The hour of 7:30 having arrived, Mayor Fulton opened the Public
Hearing on Abandonment Application A-5-77 by Bard Enterprises, Inc.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk.
Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
Resolution No. 77-216
Affidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing
Resolution No. 77-216
Affidavit of Posting - Notice of Public Hearing
Resolution No. 77-216
The City Clerk advised Council that no written protests had been
received, and the Mayor ascertained that there were no protests from
the floor.
321
A Vu Graph, indicating the location of the proposed abandonment was
shown to Council. The Commission approved the abandonment of the portion
of Olive Avenue between the north line of Sonoma Street extended and
the south line of Greenwood Street extended. Due to topography and the
prior abandonment of Olive Avenue between Greenwood Street and Oak
Ridge Drive, the subject section of Olive Avenue is not needed for street
purposes.
The applicant also requested abandonment of Sonoma Street between
Olive Avenue and a point 150 feet to the east. The Commission rec-
ommended that Sonoma Street not be abandoned because of concern expressed
at the hearing involving the need for a second access to Greenwood
Heights Subdivision. It was felt that Sonoma Street is the most logical
location for an improved second access.
It is therefore the recommendation of the Planning Commission that Olive
Avenue be abandoned as shown on the Vu Graph and that Sonoma Street
not be abandoned.

PUBLIC HEARING - Abandonment Application A-6-77
The hour of 7:30 P.M. having arrived, Mayor Fulton opened the Public
Hearing on Abandonment Application A-6-77 by Ernest Ostling, et al.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk:
Planning and Community Development Director Harris reported that the
applicant had requested abandonment of 10.ft. of the street right of
way on the south side of Eleventh Street from Court to West Streets.
The improved section of the street is 44 ft. wide; however, it is not
centered within the existing 80 ft. wide right of way. An open
drainage ditch that used to be on the south side of the street shifted
the centerline of the street to the north. This ditch has now been
installed underground. Because of the enclosure of the ditch and the
shifting of the improved street to the north, retention of additional
right of way on the south side serves little purpose. The Commission
and staff therefore recommends abandonment of 10 ft. of street right
of way on the south side of Eleventh Street from West Street to the
alley between West and Court Streets.
The Commission did not recommend abandonment of the south side of
Eleventh Street, east of the alley,as the title report indicated the
right of way would revert to Thelma Diestelhorst and not to the adjoin-
ing property owner.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Anderson, seconded by Councilwoman Gard
that the Public Hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes

CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - Establishment of Limousine Service in Redding
The hour of 7:30 P.M. having arrived, Mayor Fulton opened the Continued
Public Hearing re Establishment of Limousine Service in the City of
Redding.
The City Clerk advised Council that no written protests had been
received, and the Mayor ascertained that there were no protests from
the floor.
Council reviewed the second memorandum from the City Attorney, dated
November 9, 1977, clarifying issues regarding what Council must con-
sider in determining if public convenience and necessity requires the
issuance of such a permit. It was pointed out that the City Code must
be amended to provide for limousine service in the City.
In discussing the matter, Council was of the opinion that it would
not be necessary to require a stand in the City, and that it would
be a matter between the applicant and the County as to the housing
of the limousine, inasmuch as the applicant resides in Palo Cedro.
It was also pointed out that the ordinance should define limitations
of the services to be offered to assure that the limousine service is
not in competition with the airport limousine and Redding Yellow Cab
Company.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilwoman Gard that
the Public Hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
Council was in agreement that, inasmuch as this is a luxury service and
no such service is presently available to the citizens of Redding,
public convenience and necessity require the issuance of such a permit.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilwoman Gard
approving the concept of limousine service in the City of Redding,
and instructing the City Attorney to prepare the necessary ordinance
taking into consideration that limitations should be defined to assure
that such limousine service is not in competition with the airport
limousine or Redding Yellow Cab Company. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CITIZENS ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Planning and Community Development Director Harris reviewed his memorandum
to Council dated November 17, 1977 regarding citizen participation in
Planning and Community Development. Mr. Harris noted that in 1974, Council

of residents of various geographical areas of the City, and a Community
Development Advisory Board consisting of two members of the Planning
Commission, two members of the Redevelopment Agency, two members of the
Parks and Recreation Commission and three members of the Community Develop-
ment Citizens Advisory Committee.
The Cascade Citizens Advisory Committee was appointed to help develop the
General Plan for that area, and there is a need for a similar group in the S any,
Enterprise area. /

original Community Development Citizens Advisory Committee who have
indicated a desire to continue to serve, appoint the Cascade Advisory
Committee en masse to the Community Development Citizens Advisory Com-
mittee, and appoint an Enterprise Advisory Committee to assist in the
development of the General Plan in the Enterprise area and also to serve
on the Community Development Advisory Committee.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Demsher, seconded by Councilwoman Gard, approving
the aforestated recommendation. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes

membership from nine to eleven. A recommendation as to specific member-
ship will be submitted at a later date.

/I that the project would have a positive effect in reducing congestion
at the intersection of Cypress and Akard Streets, it is recommended
that the project be considered for the 1978-79 budget. A petition
signed by 75 merchants and other interested persons was submitted
urging the extension.
A Vu Graph illustrating the ultimate design was shown to Council.
It is anticipated that the first stage would be a two lane street
rather than four lanes, and $78,000 was requested in the budget for
this extension. The second stage would be a bridge over the A.C.I.D.
Canal.
City Manager Brickwood noted that although the extension project was
in the preliminary budget for the 1977-78 year, it was deleted in
the final budget because of projects with higher priority ratings.
Mr. Brickwood said he is not opposed to the project and believes
it will be advantageous to the City. He anticipates that it will be
included in the 1978-79 budget. However, he cautioned that the City
has several high priority Public Works Projects, such as water, sewer,
electric, and traffic signalization, which must be taken into consider-
ation.
Public Works Director Arness said he recommends inclusion of the project
in the 1978-79 budget.
The following persons spoke in favor of the extension, citing the
reduction in traffic on Cypress Street and lessening of congestion
at Akard and Cypress as important factors:
Charles Hess, representing the Business Affairs of the
Chamber of Commerce
Lyle Faudre, representing himself and 75 merchants
Vi Klaseen asked that consideration be given to providing for a bikeway
in the proposed extension.

MAC'S ROAD WATER LINE ASSESSMENT DISTRICT
Council was advised that a petition with a 61% signup has been received
for the Mac's Road Water Line Assessment District. The proposed boundaries
of the district were shown on the Vu Graph. This area, while outside the
i�
City of Redding, is within the old Buckeye County Water District boundaries
S � and is now receiving water service from the City of Redding. The proposed
district will not only upgrade the domestic service but will provide fire
service. Because this area lies outside the City of Redding, a resolution
by the Shasta County Board of Supervisors will have to be requested
authorizing the City of Redding to administer this assessment district.
It is the recommendation of the Department of Public Works that Council
authorize the retention of special bond counsel and authorize the Public
Works Department to design the project and prepare for the calling of bids.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Anderson, seconded by Councilman Demsher approving
the aforestated recommendation re Mac's Road Water Line Assessment District.
