RECREATION & PARKS COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION' - Kutras Park Siebert Stephens, Chairman, submitted the recommendation of the Recreation and Parks Commission dated March 26th, that the City of Redding enter into a lease agreement with Kutras Recreation Park Inc. to preserve a swimming beach on Kutras Lake. �g� City Manager Cowden submitted a recommendation dated March 26th; - that the City Council reject the recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Com. that the City lease and operate the facility because of the reasons stated in the memo. Said memos and recommendatirns are made a part of these minutes by reference. Mr. Stephens reviewed the proposal of Bob Spaid that the City of Redding lease from Kutras Recreation Park Inc. approximately 15 acres plus 2 acres of car parking space to maintain the swimmi ng beach on Kutras Lake. He stated that time allotted for study of the proposal was very short but the Commission has discussed cost, legal aspects, problems of maintenance, advantages and disadvantages. Members of the Recreation and Parks Commission Shuman, Martin, and Pugh, who were also present at the meeting, concurred that there has not been sufficient time to study this offer which requires such a monumental decision, but if the City does not accept the lease, the area will be lost forever to commercial uses. They stated that while this is a weighty decision, because of the expense involved, the lease acquisition would provide a most desirable recreation situation. , Pa rks Supe rintendent Smith commented that it i s a de si rable pa rk a rea and a good swimming facility but it will neve r be a money make r. � 83 In answe r to que stions f rom Councilmen, M r. Spaid advi s ed that the rea s on for urgency is that if the area is to continue to be operated as a swimming � � facility, repairs must be made to the dike during the low water season. If the City does not elect to operate the facility, the dike will be removed and the fill'�_inaterial will be used to create more useable land. He stated that � if the City does lease the area, his company would be willing to install a wooden dike, and. the City could dump concrete rubble behind it for six or seven months. He further stated that it would be possible for a public � ! agency to acquire a fishing easement along the dike, which would preserve i ; { almost a mile of river frontage for public use. John Reginato, Manager of the Shasta Cascade Wonderland Association, representing Mr. O'Brien of the Department of Fish and Game, stated the Department is vitally concerned and hopeful that the City will acquire this exceptional shoreline for the angler. He suggested the Department might be able to help by providing fencing, parking, sanitation facilities, and later on a launching facility.. He urged Council to study the proposal and offered his assistance in developing the area for public use. Mr. Spaid advised there are 53 years remaining in his lease with Mrs. Kutras, and that the City would be permitted to assign or sublet for the duration of his lease. However, his firm would not want the City to provide concessions which would be competitive with the ente.rprises of his Corpor-ation. He said he does not believe Mrs. Kutras would be interested in deeding or selling that portion of land to the City directly at this time. Other questions were raised concerning capital improvements, maintenance expense, obligation of the City, etc. � , .. . , , � = - -. . , .. , .
