COMMUNICA TIONS
State Department of Public Works - TOPICS
A. communication from the State Department of Public Works, '
dated May 5 , 1970, re allocation of Federal TOPICS funds for -�i' 7-�
I the 1970-71 fiscal year was referred to the Director of Public
Works .
, Famin, Inc.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Chatfield, seconded by Council-
� man Denny approving the request of Famin, Inc. re their request
for a permit to sell beer at a Family Day Picnic at Lake Redding
Park on June 6, 1970. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
Mayor Moty said that he had been advised by Parks Superintendent
�?��;?
Blaser that fewer and fewer groups are using park facilities in
Redding because of the cost of liability insurance required by the
City. Mr. Blaser noted that in one instance the North Valley
Travelers Motorcycle Club would have had to pay $286. for insur-
' ance for a two day event in the park, and the Shasta-Trinity
Employees A.ssociation were quoted a cost of $50. for a one-day
picnic . ✓'�'�l
Councilman Denny mentioned that this is also true regarding the
use of the Civic Auditorium.
Mayor Moty advanced the theory that perhaps the City could
provide insurance coverage at a lower cost. Finance Director
Courtney said that perhaps the Independent Insurance Agents
A.ssociation of Shasta County could develop such a program.
The. Mayor asked the City Manager to have a member of staff
check into this possibility.

Shasta Vet's Club
In a communication to Council dated IVIay 14, 1970, the
Shasta Vet:'s Club and the Redding Chamber of Commerce
requested permission to sell beer at the new boat ramp in
Turtle Bay on June 20, 1970 in conjunction with the a raft
race from the Shasta County Sheriff's Posse Grounds in
Redding to the A.nderson River Park.
%y�-
Mayor Moty noted that questions have been raised in connec-
tion with this request and, with the approval of Council,
referred this matter to the Parks and Recreation Commission
for review and recommendation at the Council meeting of June lst.
Richard Smith was in the audience on behalf of the Shasta Vet's
Club and he was told he would be advised of the time and place
of the ComxYiission meeting.
Redding Redevelopment A.gency
A. Progress Report on Midtown Project No. 1 was submitted by
F. E. Henson, Executive Dir.ector of the Redding Redevelopment
A.gency. Councilman Denny, a member of the Council Mall
-��� �� Committee, reported that this is the first report that has been
prepared in response to Council' s request for periodic progress
reports to be submitted by the A.gency. Mr. Denny said that any
comments by Council regarding the format of the report would
be welcomed by the Agency.
Mayor Moty mentioned that in his opinion the attachments would
�'-/G; .� require a verbal explanation. Mr. Denny said that the pres s had
voiced the same opinion. He feels that in future reports :.the�rie;
will be a brief statistical report after the narrative portion.
Mayor Moty stated that he believes there are items on the last .
page of the report (Project Parking and Financing) that could be
questioned and that such items can be discussed at budget sessions.
He mentioned Item E of the City Manager's memo of May 13, 1970
and said he intends to write a memo to the Mall Committee re-
garding his thoughts, particularly with respect to Item E. He
spoke of the po s sibility of utilizing parking attendants in lieu of
parking meters in the parking lots.
A.ctive A.mericans for Peace
Lynn Young appeared before Council on behalf of A.ctive A.mericans
for Peace, an organization dedicated to the ending of the Viet Nam
war . Mrs . Young asked for the backing of Council in their efforts
to collect signatures of Redding residents on a petition that calls
for the passage of the A.mendment to the 1Vlilitary A.uthorization
A.ct, introduced by Mark O. Hatfield and co-sponsored by Senator
A.11a� Crans ton and many othe rs.
�-�� Council indicated to Mrs . Young that they felt it would not be
appropriate for Members of Council to collectively or individually
as Councilmen support the petition. It is their feeling that it is
not proper for the City Council to take stands on State or National
issues .
Later iri the meeting Mrs. Vi Klaseen of 595 Mary Street stated
that there are many people , including many young people , who
feel that the situation in this country has become so serious that
no governmental body is going to be able to say it can't speak on
issues because such issues don't concern it directly. Mrs.
Klaseen thinks that Council should reconsider its policy
75
A.t a later point in the meeting Mayor Moty commented that if
the City Council were to take positions on national and state
issues , in his opinion, it would result in a "party-type" local
government and Council could not maintain an impartial posi-
tion in othe r matte r s .

PUBLIC HEA.RING - Phase V - Curb, Gutter, and Sidewalk Construction
The hour of 7:30 P.M. having arrived, Mayor Moty opened the
Public Hearing re Phase V - Curb, Gutter , and Sidewalk
Construction Project.
The following documents are on file in the office of the City
Cle rk:
Declaration of Mailing and Posting Notice of the Project
and Public Hearing Thereon
Superintendent of Streets "Finding of Fact" dated 5/14/70
� The City Clerk advised Council that no written protests had
been received.
A.ssistant Civil Engineer Hastings briefed Council re the
Project, and members of Council were given drawings
showing the locations of the properties included in Phase V.
Mr. Hastings was questioned by Council regarding the owner-
- ship of pr.operty located on Cypress A.venue. He stated that ���
the property is owned by the 5tate Department of Fish and
Game and that a State representative had told him the State
is agreeable to installation of the improvements .
Mr. Murphy confirmed that the City cannot compel a 5tate
agency to put in the improvements if they are unwilling to
do so.
Mr. R. A . Wright, who owns .property on California Street,
indicated that he is in favor of the improvements. He asked
if the City would assume responsibility for pruning or removing
trees in the right-of-way if it were found necessary. Parks
Superintendent Blaser stated that the City will take care of the
trees in the right-of-way.
A.lice Kirkpatrick spoke on behalf of .the Native Daughters of
the Golden West and said that this. organization is in favor of
the improvements but would like a wider driveway than what
is proposed. A.t present, the members park vertically on
the property (off the street in front of the building) but this
would not be.possible with the width of the proposed driveway (20').
76
Mr. Hastings said that he had discussed this with the ladies
and had informed them that it is not the policy of the City,
nor would he recomxnend a driveway the full width of the
property because of the hazard of backing irito the �street.
It has been the policy of the City that driveways shall not
exceed 60°jo of the width of the property. Mr , Hastings
had suggested that additional parking could be achieved
by using the back portion of the lot; there is a driveway
along the side of the building to the back of the property.
In a discussion of this matter Mrs . Kirkpatrick brought
out the fact that there is a drain pipe on the property for
which there is no easement.
Mayor Moty recommended that the hearing be continued
to 7:30 P.M. , June 1 st, to allow the Department of Public
Works time to work out the driveway problem with the
Native Daughte r s.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Chatfield, seconded by
Councilman Fulton that the Public Hearing re Phase V -
Curb, Gutter, and Sidewalks, be continued to 7;30 P.M. ,
June 1 , 1970. The Vote: Unanimous A.yes
PUBLIC HEA.RING - Rezoning Application RZ-2-70
The hour of 8:00 P.M. having arrived, Mayor Moty opened
the Public Hearing on Rezoning Application RZ-2-70
The following documents are on file in the office of the City
Clerk;
Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Public Hearing
A.ffidavit of Mailing - Notice of Public Hearing
Planning Commission Recommendation dated May 14, 1970
The City Clerk advised Council that no written protests had
��� been received.
Planning Director Harris reviewed the Planning Commission
recommendation re RZ-2-70 as contained in a memo to Council
dated May 14, 1970, which memo is made a part of these minutes
by reference. The seven acre parcel proposed to be rezoned
from R-1 is located west of Almond Avenue on the south side of
Eureka Way. Members of Council were provided with site plan
maps.
It is the recommendation of the Planning Commission that said
property be zoned CO-BR-F with a specific site plan review
and development requirements .
Councilman Chatfield asked who has the responsibility for
setting the criteria for "F" site plan review. Mr. Harris
replied that the Comrriission sets the criteria and tlie Board
of A.dministrative Review approves the plan, based on the
criteria established.
Attorney Richard Asbill appeared before Council representing
the applicants as well as the property owner. Mr. A.sbill
noted that except for the southern boundary of the property,
all of the surrounding property is zoned commercial. Mr.
Asbill listed three objections to the proposed criteria for the
"F" District:
�7
1) The 702' height restriction in the easterly portion of
the seven acre parcel. He requests 706' .
2) The 100' buffer strip proposed for a portion of the
southern boundary of the property. He requests a
uniform 50' buffer strip -- 25' to be landscaped and
' 25' for parking or roads.
3) The location of the line delineating what portion of
the parcel height limitation is imposed upon. He
requests that the line be moved to the east as illus-
trated on a drawing submitted.
Mr . A sbill stated that the limitation imposed by the above
restrictions do not allow sufficient flexibility for the appli-
cants in planning this $500, 000. development. In addition
to the loss of usable property from the buffer strip, the appli-
cant will not be able to develop a wide strip along Eureka Way
as this must be reserved for future widening of Eureka Way
by the State Division of Highways . Also, there is a City
water easement on the property which limits flexibility in
planning the development.
Mr. Asbill submitted drawings and photographs to substan-
tiate his claim that the 706' height requested would not
obstruct the view of property owners on the upper portion
of Foothill Blvd. He also submitted a petition signed by
six of the eleven property owners on Foothill Blvd. whose
property abuts the proposed development and who do not
oppose the development.
A.ttorney Daniel Carlton appeared on behalf of Mr, and Mrs .
Watt, who have a home on Foothill Blvd. Mr. Carlton con-
tended that there should be integrity in zoning; that the Watts
purchased this property several years ago and built a home
there because of the view. They object to a commercial
development which could endanger this view. Mr. Carlton said
his clients have consented to cha.nging the zoning to allow the
dental complex but believe that the restrictions imposed by
the Planning Commission are proper and necessary to preserve
their view. He further stated that his clients are willing to
purchase some of the property to insure an adequate buffer
strip. Mr. Carlton pointed out that there is property avail-
able on Court Street for development of a professional complex.
Councilman Denny questioned Item #4 of the site plan review
criteria, noting that the wording could lead to some misunder-
standing. 1VIr. Harris said he wauld suggest leaving the scrub
oaks and Manzanita and that he did not anticipate a problem.
Councilman Chatfield questioned Item #I in this respect also,
stating that a landscaped buffer might cut off the view with the
growth of trees .
Mr. A.sbill was asked if he had any cost figures re excavating
to stay within the 702' height limitation. He replied that he
did not have such figur.es and. said he thought the developers
should be able to build with the same restrictions as in an
R-1 District, which District allows building to a height of 728' .
Mr. Theobold, a .realtor .who represents both the property
owner and the developer said.that pipe lines preclude excavation.
He also stated .tha.t he has a signed deposit receipt and a signed
contract, subject to zoning, and that as far as he knows there is
no commitment binding on the property owner to sell any portion
of the property to someone else.
�8
Councilman Chatfield said he agrees wholeheartedly with
Mr. Carlton that the integrity of zoning should protect the
Watts in the manner that the present zoning does. He said
he has misgivings `about the topography map that is being
` used and would propose that the Public Hearing be continued
to allow the Department of Public Works to obtain a profile
of the area and ascertain the accuracy of the topo map. He
would also like to have the Planning Director develop a plan
for R-1 development and show the parcel as he would arrange
it under R-1 zoning.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Chatfield, seconded by
Councilman Fulton that the Public Hearing be_continued
to 8:00 P.M. , June l , 1970 and the Planning Department
and Public Works Department to,furnish additional informa-
tion as outlined by Councilman Chatfield. ,
Voting was as follows:
A.yes: . Councilmen - Chatfield and Fulton
Noes: Councilmen - Denny and Moty
A.bsent: Councilmen - Anderson
Councilman Denny said he doesn't feel that information
that would come out of this would affect judgment that
Council will reach. Council would have a more accurate
topo map but he doesn't think this is a xnajor consideration
for Council. Mr. Denny said that the developer has to be
responsible for the accuracy of the topo lines . He also
feels that the hypothetical design of an R-1 District would
only add to the confusion because any placement of a resi-
dence would have to be extremely arbitrary and the Planner
would be placed in a difficult position. He therefore feels
that there is no point. in delay and that the applicants are
deserving of a fairly prompt decision. He is opposed to
any continuance of the Public Hearing.
MOTION: IVlade by Councilman Denny, seconded by Councilman
Fulton that the Public Hearing be closed.
Voting was as follows:
A.yes:� Councilmen - Denny, Fulton, and Moty
Noes: " Councilmen - Chatfield
Absent: Councilmen - Anderson
Councilman Denny stated it is his belief that the City has an
obligation to honor zoning commitments; however, the integrity
of zoning does not mean that the zoning cannot be changed.
Zoning will change dictated by trends, traffic movements, etc.
Mr. Denny mentioned that this property has not been used and
it should be used; productive use of property is a goal of govern-
ment. . He feels that Council needs to consider a zoning that will
permit use of this property and he has confidence that the devel-
oper and property owners will work around minor problems that
have arisen. He is sure that some excavating and grading will
be necessary to make this parcel usable for office development.
Mr. Denny said that the residences that are on Foothill Blvd.
certainly need the protection that they assumed they had with
the R. 1 zoning but sees no objection to the recommended change.
He brought out that Council would prefer always to honor the
judgment of the Planning Commission; to respect the great deal
of thought that goes into a Planning Department and Planning
Commission recommendation. In this case Mr. Denny believes .
that the Planning Department and Commis sion have worked long
and hard to come to a compromise and he is quite willing to
accept their recommendation and hopes the developers can live
with that recommendation.

� ;
� MOTION: Made by Councilman Denny approving the proposed
, i rezoning.
The moti`on died for lack of a. second.
Councilman Fulton said he feels there is something un-
realistic re the proposed 100' buffer strip for a portion
of the' southern boundary'. He does agree with the 702'
" height limitat'ion but'would want the buffer strip to be
50' throughout and would also apprbve of moving the line
limiting height to the east.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Fulton, seconded by Mayor
Moty that the proposed rezoning of RZ-2-70 be referred back
to the Planning Corr�xnission for reconsideration of the follow-
, ing items:
1 . Buffer strip to be 25' landscaping and 25' for
parking or roads across the entire southern
, boundary of the seven acre parcel
2. That the differential height line be pivoted
� - from the corner of Pa 'rcel 3, parallelling
the water easement line.
Voting was as follows:
A.yes: Councilmen - Denny, Fulton, and Moty
Noes: Councilmen - Chatfield
A.bsent: Councilmen - A.nderson
Councilman Chatfield asked that the record Show that he
voted ''No''' `because he feels that Council should have
