DIRECTIONAL SIGN.S ON FREEWAY
Harold .Finkler gave a prog.r.ess report re obtaining lease or purchase
options on sites for directional signs on the freeway. He stated that he
has found it will behoove the City to lease rather than purchase the sites
because of obsolescence. He further stated that it may be necessary to
obta�iri use or variance permits from the Shasta County Planning Commis-
� sion for those sites not located in the City of Redding. He referred to a
� use permit issued to Ryan Advertising Company for a sign to be erected
near Anderson which may be too:close to the site where the City wishes
to place a sign. Mr. Finkler will tour the area with a representative of
Ryan Advertising to pinpoint the exact location and he will work with
Sliasta County Planning Director Herbert regarding the necessary use or
variance �permits. Mr. Finkler stated he hopes to have all the details
finalized by the meeting of June 5th and suggested that the contents of the
signs be dete rmined. . . .
"'CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - Garden Street Sewer Assessment District

11,9
_ Public Works Director Arness submitted.a status report:and
recommendati.on .re� the,propos.ed, Ass:essment District dated .
May 9, 1967. Mr.� Arness :stated that a review of the records
indicates that the three lots in the proposed Assessment District
were originally part of the Garden Olivia Sewer Assessment
District but an assessment split was made which isolated these
three lots from the sewer for which they were being assessed.
It also appears that three lots across the street will eventually
have need of the propose.d lateraT .extension; however, the .
owners of two of the lots hav.e indicated a negative attitude
towa,rd. the proposed Assessment.District. It:is.. therefore the
recommenda�tion of .the.Department of Public Works�that Council
adopt a resolution repealing all previous resolutions passed in
connection with this district, thereby dissolving�the district.� ;
It is al�so recommended that Council.award a contract to Glenn.
W. Shook to install the sewer line in Garden Street and charge
the owners of the six lots at the time they have need of connec-
tion $4. 00 a front foot, as provided by Section 23-7-B of the
Redding City Code. , � ,

DEMOLITION OF BUILDING - Sewage Disposal Plant Site
Assistant City Manager Stewart submitted for Council consideration the
proposed demolition of the old dwelling at the Clear Creek oxidation pond
site, poi:nting out that it has been rented at various times for $50 per
month but at present it is badly in need of repairs at an estimated cost
of $1600. During a discussion of this item Councilman Chatfie,ld asked . �
if any thought had been given to the possibility of moving this dwelling �� �
�
by a salvage company. Mr, Stewart said he had not checked into this but
he was of the opinion that it might cost the City more money to move it
than to demolish it. He stated he would investigate this possibility.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Denny, seconded by Councilman Doherty
authorizing the demolition of the dwelling at the Clear Creek oxidation
pond site or otherwise disposing of it to the best advantage of the City at
the discretion of the Assistant City Manager. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes

plained that the documents had not been received until Saturday morning

that these documents are not being considered by Council at this meeting,
that this is the only way the matter can be brought before Council. Council-
man Chatfield commented that this is a committee report from a coxnmittee
appointed in January.
Mr. Patterson said he thought privaie meetings s.hould .be he,ld,with Mr.

PTJBLrC HEARING - Redding Heights Assessment District No. 1965-3
Councilman Fulton abstained from discussion and voting on this item
The hour of 8:00 P. M. having arrived, Mayor Moty opened the
Public Hearing re Redding Heights� As�sessment District No. 1965-3

Ce rtificate of mailing - Notice of.Improvement
Certificate of posting �- Notice of.Improvement. .
The City Clerk advised Council that 21 protests had been received
representing 32, 8% of the area in the Assessment District.
Assistant City Engineer Lan�g gave a brief resume of the history of
this Assessment District, stating that petitions we.re signed in
1965 and the total estimated cost at that time was $80, 000. There
are 54 parcels included in the Assessment District. In April 1967
the work to be done was refigured and it was estimated to cost
$108, 000 and first assessments were based on such cost. The
low bid received for this work was $76, 300, which reduced the
individual assessments approximately 22°jo from the original
assessments mailed to the property owners. Mr. Lang then ex-
plained the method of spreading the assessment.
122
Councilman Denny referred to a comment in one of the letters of protest
regarding purchase of rights-of-way and was advised that to date the
City has not paid for any right-of-way; however, there is one parcel the
City is negotiating for which may involve a dollar figure.
The following persons appeared before Council and spoke in favor of
the Assessment District: Paul Bodenhammer, 1540 Barbara Road,
Walter Skerke, 1735 Barbara Road, and Mrs. Echo Maher who owns
property in the district but who resides elsewhere.
MOTION: Made by Councilman Denny, seconded by Councilman
Doherty, the Public Hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes
with Councilman Fulton abstaining.
In answer to an inquiry of Mayor Moty. as to the various courses open
to Council re this proceeding, Bond Counsel Ed Ness advised that Council
can move ahead with the proceedings and overrule the protests, it can
support the protests and vote down the District, or it can put the matter
ove r, until a late r date.
Councilman Doherty and Gouncilman Chatfield spoke in favor of pro-
ceeding with the Assessment District.
Mr. Ness explained that the assessments could be paid for in cash
with the property owners given 30 days in which to pay any part or the
total assessment. After the 30 day period the assessments are spread
over a 15 year period and, based on a typical assessment of $1150,
an average yearly payment would amount to $135 for the first year and
a decreasing amount in subsequent years, the interest being based on
a declining balance.
MOTION: Made by Mayor Moty, seconded by Councilman Denny
overruling the protests. The Vote: Unanimous Ayes with Councilman
Fulton abstaining.
Mr. Ness submitted the following documents in connection with the
Assessment District.

the improvement of Wyndham.Lane and, at that time, the County ver-
bally agreed to provide the rights-of-way for ,the improvements. No
rights-of-way have been acquired to date. The question now arises as
to who is to provide the rights-of-way, the developer or the City. ���D
Mr. Kennicott, the developer, appeared before.Council and advised
that he is trying to acquire a more desirable access to the subdivision
than Wyndham Lane, and if.he is successful he would reque.st that
Condition No. 15 be waived with the .understanding that the alternate
access accomplishes everything required by such condition.
Mayor Moty referred the matter to the Council Committee composed
of Councilman Chatfield and Councilman Doherty to explore all possi-
bilities, and report back to Council.

LEGAL AID SOCIETY OF SHASTA COUNTY
Mr. Joseph Redmon, Director of the Legal Aid Society of Shasta County,
a non-p rofit o rganization, submitted to Council a lette r des c ribing the
purpose and proposed financing of the newly formed Legal Aid Society.
The purpose of the letter was to inquire as to whether the City Council
of the City of Redding will, together with the City of Anderson and the
County of Shasta, consider making a contribution to this non-profit
organization. The proposed total annual budget is $28, 282. 00, and f.��
the Redding-Anderson-Shasta County share of this amount is $500. 00.
In a discussion of this matter it was suggested that an equitable division
of this contribution might be for Shasta County to contribute 60°jo, Redding,
30°jo, and Anderson, 10%.
Although members of Council were in agreement that this is a worthy
cause, the matter was referred to the City Attorney to research as
to whether the contribution of public funds to this type of organization
is permitted by law.
