COMMUNICATIONS � Shasta.County Safety Council � Mrs. Christina Gans, Manager of the Shasta County Safety Council, called attention to the traffic problem on Riverside Drive betwe'en Market and Calif.

Re Rezoning Application RZ-14-63 � Under date of December 11, Robert Sondag, Civil Engineer with Clair A. Hill and Associates, submitted a letter on behalf of F. O. Beutke, owner and Redding's Panorama`Heights, Inc. , the developer, regarding Rezoning Application RZ-14-63, He asks council consicleration on certain requests, predicated upon the action of the C�ity Planning Commissiori on December lOth �� when they�disapproved the reque st for rezoning; bu� submitted a statement � � to the Council that rezoning of the property to multiple family use was : appropriate as to land use, and that the applicant's request was reasonable. 472 The disapprpval of the Planning Commission was based upon the premise there is presently�an insufficient access roadway section serving the properties in question, and this roadway, Grandview Avenue, will not carry the traffic that would be generated by the proposed multiple family area. He therefore requested the Department of Public Works submit to the Council at the time of their consider.ation of the rezoning application, a detailed and factual engineering report which clear�ly establishes the maximum traffic load that the present geometrical design of Grandview Avenue will carry in conformance with the general public welfare. Further, with the above information available, he asked Council to approve the rezoning request and instruct the Planning Commission to limit their approval of future tentative maps in the area, so as not to exceed the maxi- �� mum density that the present access road will support. � • . That the Council instruct the City Planning Commission to bring the Master � Street and Highway Plan of the City of Redding up to date in this area. MOTION: Made by Councilman Kriegsman, seconded by Councilman Denny the Director of Public Wo,rks, be directed to submit report at the date set for public hearing on Rezoning Application RZ-14-63 in accordance with the request outlined in Paragraph 3 of Robert Sondagts letter.

Re Legislation H. R. .6457 The. �Mayor of the City ,of B�arstow, California, Ida Pleasant, submitted copy of legislation now before the 88th Congress of `the United States, H. R. 6457, "that can result in substantial economic damage to cities along the Interstate Highway System if those cities depend, to any substantial amount on tourist trade. " This is a Bill to amend Section 111 of Title 23 of .the U. S. Code to permit States to,allow certain service facilities to be constructed o'r located on the rights-of-way of the.Interstate System. (Code amended by striking out _ "will not." and inserting in lieu thereof "may!'. ) � �1:�% City Attorney Murphy said this could tend to inject on freeways service �� facilities in between cities, rather than located withiri coagulated points by cities or towns, � Councilman Chatfield said he felt this was more related to interchanges ' � where the State. owned.fragments of land that was of no value to them. Councilman Kriegsman stated he was of the.op'inion the City of Barstow was 100°jo right; that council represented a city with motels arid stop-off facilitie s. Mayor Martin stated he had mixed feelings about this; that political methods should not stand in the way of development, on the othe� hand he realized it had a certain impact on the�deve`lopment of cities who exist because of their location and their facilities. Progress should not be impeded by legis- lation, competition should not be interfered with. That those who need services on the higliways will seek these services. _ - _ � � � � � � , � � � � 473 - ' MOTICON: Ma�de by Couricilman Kriegsman,�. seconded by Councilman Moty the City Manager be authorized to write a letter protesting•'�lie bili H.
