Re Purchase of Property - Benton Airport
Reverend John O'Connor, pastor of St. Joseph's Parish, outlined plans
for the new church. That he is aware of the gully to the south of the property,
and that City has an easement to cover pipeline that is. in this gully. That
should the gully be filled in.to provide parking, that a drainage pipe meeting
City specifications would have to be installed by St. Joseph parish.
� � � He spoke of off-street parking, advising it was their hope it would be
possible to park on the school property directly across the street.
� _
Planning Director Keyes briefed councilmen on the cut and fill that may
be required, or the construction of a retaining wall. Also, that at some
f:u.tur-e: date a road may be constructed between.Benton Airpark and the
� church which would necessitate participation by the church based on a
formula that would consider the relative benefit to all the parties involved.
Councilman Kriegsman said in his opinion all requirements of the City
should be formalized in a letter so there is .no misunderstanding at some
� future date. �
It was further suggested the Church apply, for a use permit before .the
purchase of this property, in order to have the thinking of the Planning
Commission before obligations were contracted.

ORDINANCE - Franchise Community Antenna T. V., Systems
� City Attorney Murphy stated that Ordinance No. 735 �was before councilmen this
evening for second reading and possible adoption; the basic reason for the adoption
-- of the ordinance as quickly as possible was because it would then be possible to
review the applications for a franchise in this �field.
He explained the proposed ordinance�provides a�procedure�for the franchise appli-
cant to make his application, and the procedural sections of the`ordinance remain
unchar�ged by the, propo.sed amendments. The amendments �were suggested by,
review,ed and approved.by Councilman Kriegsman, appointed b,y Mayor Martin
as the council liaison office,r, and stem from suggestions of those have have
informally applied for a franchise, interested parties in the area, comments
- of the Record-Searchlight and comments and reviews of the councilmen them-
�•
selves.
. , - ,.. ,
. _ • . : • ._ .
He fur.ther stated he and the City Manager had met in Red Bluff with Jere Hurley,
.5hasta County District.,Attorne�'s office, representatives of the City of Red Bluff
and Tehama County, the City Manager of Chico�and a member of the City Attorney's
, staff of Chico;.p.roposed ordinances had been reviewed, together with the applications
for the franchis;e. . That Chico a.s a, charter.city was in a po.sition to process
ap_plications for a franchise_at this time, as their charter provides for the pro-
. < <
cedure of obtaining, a„franchise. � .
- •� . � . ... . � - i � - , �� �
Councilman Kriegsman concurred it would be advantageous to pass Ordinance No.
735 tonight, as he believed it would go a long way to reducing the time for pro-
� cessing the applicants for a franchis,e; that he had understood from the ,.persons
with whom h.e had s,poken they.were sati.sfied with .the ordinance�x- +at this time
they request a .delay.and;he saw no reason for a delay as it was not�possible�to
work in concert in everything.
Frank W. Shuman, representing KHSL, Chico, requested a delay in the adoption
� . .
of Ordinance No. 735; that a two week delay was not of such great moment. He
a.sked, that Ordinance,No. 735 and the amendments to Ordinance No. 73�5 be
. � .
considered as first reading. ,
He called attention to Section 13. 1-19, Additional Services to Franchise HoTder,
that made prior approval by City Council necessary under cer-tain conditions; he
mentioned that the last legislature had.passed a 1°jo tax, on pay-as-you-go TV.
� : ,. .. . . � : . - . .
City Attorney Murphy sa�id he did.not understand pay TV to be closed ci`rcuit TV
without any pay features whatsoever; that he was not able�to give 100°jo assurance
that City is exempt from the provisions of the State legislation with this section .
in, nor tell if City is exempt with this section out. In his opinion this ,ordinance
clearly says it does not cover pay T.V; that City was expressly reserving the
right to regulate pay TV by another franchise ordinance covering pay TV if and
when it comes arid if the Federal or State governments have not entered into the
regulation of it. That City could repeal this one section of the proposed ordinance
if we find the State has pre-empted the field. � ' '
Mr. John Spann said in his opinion Mr. Shuman's suggestions were valid and
merited council consideration. The ordinance affected many people;. many
ii�terests; -that the proposed or_din:ance did not have the 30 day clause= on delayed
broadcasts, and this was most importarrt to the local stations.
He then introduced Mr: V��illiam�B. Smullin, Vice President and Executive
Mariager�of Station KRCR; he stated Mr. Smullin had a �life time �of'�experience
in radi'o anfl t. v. arid was `on the executive t. v. advisory board "of�Columbia
Broadcasting Company. � ' `
��
3�6
Mr. S`mulliri stated he had a per'sonal interest iri thi�s 'ordinarice; they were�.
endeavoring to bring top programs to .this `a'rea via'tw'o'networks, and the �:
thirty day delayed `broadcas"t cla�tse does g�ive additional freed'om.' Tliey would
be satisfied to do away with the thirty day before broadcast, but did ask for
inclusion of the thirty day after. He said there were other points of controversy
on the ordinances, however the delayed broadcast clause was of the utmbst
importance. -- � � �
