Adams of the firrri of Adams and Reiser states he had made an investi.- gation of the sanitary sewers traversing the property on south Pine Street at which location the construction of a motel is proposed. � The letter dated January 4th states: "Since�these sanitary sewers are laterals, are small in size, and would be located under �th'e proposed construction for relatively short distances, we request the City� to approve the recommendation that. the lines remain where they are and be encased in a concrete envelope where located under the proposed coristruction. Any load bearing footing crossing a line could be �constructed as a beam �/, thereby'removing all possibility of damage to the lines. � This procedure would obviate the alternative of realignment of.the lines which we believe to be an unnecessary and an uneconomical procedure in this case. " � Director of Public Works Arness stated he had written a rriemb.to his people dated June, 1961, that a permit should not be issued without council authori- zation in a circumstance such as this; he felt his office was not authorized to accept the liability of this type of construction. That it was a small 1'ine, however it did receive the waste from the 400 Motel and he was reticent to see sewer lines, water lines or storm drains placed beneath a structure. There should be a hold harmless agreement to protect the City should there be a line.failure. � Mr. Mac Wood, representing the firm of John Bryant, stated he had several conversations with the former City Engineer (Mr. Ward).who had even drawn a diagram; this had been presented to his client to indicate that, it could be and would be feasible. , 190 � Councilrnan Kriegsman, stated that it was a common practice of many cities to require cast iron pipe�.or;that lines be encased in concrete; that this is not an unnormal procedure; either method or a combinatiori of the two, together with a hold harmless agreement. _ City Attorney,Murphy, said that on a long range basis the hold harmless <<. portion of City's protection may not be available to us unless it was made to run with the land ,rather than with the individual contracting party. This is not a precedent,to be sought for. nor would you like to have.become common. Council reviewed the sale of this property: $42, 500 �assessed valuation, sold for $22, 500,which represented the cost for the r.elo_cation of this line. � - John X.

L�/�� Councilman Kriegsman offered Ordinance No. 704 for first reading, an ordinance 194 of the City of Redding adding Article IV of Chapter 10 of the Redding City Code, 1959, as amended, providing for regulation of public dances in the City of Redding. Mr. Arch Merrifield, .Secretary-Treasure� of the Musicians Uni�n� Local 113 stated he was deeply perturbed by this ordinance, that he did not think theCity had an ordinance they could live with. He cited the following problems that would arise.: 1 - Checking of the I D cards for teen agers � �. 2.- The closing of the dance at 12:30 A. M. if teen agers were in attendance 3 - No readmission without 'payment of additional fee He stated it was known that teen agers did not like restrictions; they would go out of the City to thwart 'restrictions, if�`the County adopted an ordinance such as this, they would go out of the County. That proper lighting and adequate patroll- ing of the grounds and the hall would have the same effect. Terry Bowman, President o,f the Teen C�nte.r, approved the 12:30 A. M. closing, and said that no doubt, if you had adequate reason, you could be readmitted to a dance without payment of an additional fee. - , - - Councilman Kriegsman reaffirmed his .stand that dances .should close .their doors at 12:30 A. M. if teen agers are admitted. , ORDINANCE - Prohibiting Burning e�cept'Under Certain_,Condi.ti-ons , , , , MOTION: Made by Councilman Chatfield, seconded by Councilman_Kriegsman! that full reading of Ordinance No. 702 be waived and.the City Attorney be directed to scan same.
