percent of the youth who completed the survey stating that they purchased vaping products.

Street Manor motel called Abundant Life Academy, residents who are accepted into the

the goal of the program is to help the residents reestablish their lives through life skill
training, and future story mapping processes, to find more permanent solutions. Residents
who are currently living at the facility are required to pay rent in order to maintain the
facility. Mr. Cronic noted that non -profits within the community will be assisting with the
operations and maintenance of this facility through various fundraising efforts. He further
noted that these funds would be used for infrastructure improvements, not programming.

to City Council (staff report), and provided a PowerPoint presentation, both incorporated
herein by reference.
In response to Council Member Johnson, Mr. Bowers noted that new utility scale solar
would be included in REU's renewable energy plan, and the City of Redding is looking for
parcels in Redding that could sustain the project space which would be at utility scale,
approximately $37 to $40 per megawatt hour, which equates to approx. $0.04 per kilowatt
hour. However, he noted that storage becomes an issue due to the heat lasting in Redding
past 9:00 PM, and the only storage solution currently available is batteries.

Additionally, Mr. Bowers noted that in answer to Council. Member Johnson's question, he
affirmed that eventually new homeowners would be able to subscribe to a
community/utility wide solar project, and Mr. Tippin agreed that a program could be
crafted such as that builders could potentially pre -subscribe to this type of project as well,
but the City would need to know additional details before consideration of such..

report), and a PowerPoint presentation, both incorporated herein by reference.
A discussion amongst the Council ensued.
In response to Mayor Audette, Mr. Robinett explained that although there is a $5 million
deficit, the millions being asked to be appropriated in the report are actual incurred costs
that have already been spent from the General Fund. He noted that with the City's reserves
and forecasting tools, depending on sales tax, property tax, and other variables, there could
be a different fiscal picture by the end of the year. He noted that the recommendation to
the Council is to reduce the future revenue assumptions from four percent to two and a half
percent.

particularly within the next two months as the City begins to prepare the next biennial
budget, and will return to Council in January of 2025 with the next quarterly update.
