The Vote: Unanimous Ayes. PRESENTASION - Civic Auditorium Com�nittee � Mr. M. F. Parker, Chairman of the City of Redding Auditorium Committee, sub- mitted to all councilmen an analysis of cost of the proposed civic auditorium•. He stated this represents a culmination of eight years of study and the committee now requ�sts that Council institute proceedings to place a $2, 500, 000. 00 bond issue on the ballot at the June Primary,election for decision by the voters. He further requested that Council go on record indicating that it is their intention that General Obligation Bonds will be retired from Sales Tax Funds: - � He further commented that the electorate imposed the sales tax with the understand- ing the revenue would be used for capital im�rovements such as streets, water, storm drain development and a civic auditorium. That funds are now available from the sales tax, and the voters must decide if funds should be used for the con- , . struction of the proposed civic auditorium. Mayor Puryear indicated that study of this project had been made by the Forward Redding Committee, the Chamber of Commerce and the City Council, and that Council is now most interested in presenting the facts to the people; that this is '; '/ � a gaod, feasible project. Dr. Martin said he has mixed feelings on this project: It will be a wonderful living room for Redding from an architectural standpoint and as an attraction for the en- joyment of many kinds of diversified programs, however he was not in complete accord that all the things should be included; however, as a father with a family must adjust the needs of the family to the available resources, so the City must adjust their needs to the available resources. The praposed expenditure is a large sum, however the items to be included should be to the judgment of the Comrnittee. "This is a worth- while project and I am willing to let the judgrnent of the Committee stand. The proposed auditorium will be an asset not only to the City and County, but all the northern counties from here to tlie Oregon state line, the Nevada State line and to Eureka,"he concluded. Councilman Simons stated he was aware of the pros and cons faced by the Auditorium Committee; that he 'noticed the estimated cost of maintenance of the auditorium was lacking. That while it is possible to build the auditorium with sales tax money, this s.�.me- money would not then be available for storm drainage, etc. He pointed out that while this must be a general obligation bond issue, and the present Council's intent is that sales tax rnoney be used to retire the bonds, we can not tie the hands of future councils. "It would be an injustice to the property owners if ever insuf- ficient money wer.e available and the bond payments would have to be met by increased property tax" he concluded. He favored 'the issue being placed on the ballot for June 5th. Councilman Moty said he echoes the sentiments of Councilmen Martin and Simons; he accepts the wisdom and judgment of the many capable men who have studied the project duriiig the last eight years. He"app'roved placing the issue on�the ballot and will go on r"ecord that his intent is that�sales tax revenue will be used for the retirement of the bonds, interest and redemption. � Mayor Puryear commended the C'ivic A.uditorium Committee for keeping the Council so well informed on their progress; that.he wanted the tax payers to know it was the intent of this City Council, the Finance Director and the administration that sales tax mone`y will be used. as outlined. That $57, 000 has been invested to date on this project, and believing in the integrity of the men on the committee, the money had been well spent. "I'am convinced the civic auditorium is in the best interes.ts of the City and County. dur area can become the principal industrial and recreational area in Northern California. It is our heritage to make improve- ments for our growth and economy" he said. ' 479 MOTION: Made by Councilman Simons, seconded by Councilman Martin directing City Attorney Redmon to commence the necessary legal proceclure to place this issue on the ballot, and empowering the mayor and City Attorney to employ the necessary bonding attorney to set the program in motion, and approve the validation of the proceedings.

Planning Director Evans submitted a memo to all c.ouncilmen entitled "Recon-. ' sideration of the Planning Commission on the matter pertaining to the Parkview � i'"� �! _ Avenue rezoning request of Mr. Frank Shuman. " He reviewed previous action of the Planning Commission and the City Council�,s request to obtain a majority vote of the total membership of the Comrnissioners on whether or not the properties in question should be rezoned from.R-3 (Restricted Multiple Family Residential) to either a C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial) or a C-2-P (Gentral Commercial with off-street parking} District. ., 5taff recommendation was for the C-1 classification, based on the following reasons: • 1 . General Plan for Land Use does not indicate a major transition �rom a high density residential development to a Central Commercial or Industrial land us e. �" 2. Neighborhood Commercial Zoning would best control any future encroach- ment of a retail commercial nature into the residential (.R-1) area along 5tate Street as well as the adjacent area (R-3) 3. The same retail commercial uses are permitted in the C-1 classification as are allowed in the G2-P classification, with the exception of the 15. 0 ft. setback, service stations and used car lots etc. 4. The entire area adjacent to Parkview Ave. should be preserved and retained for harmonious and aesthetic arrangement of buildings in order to p�e- serve the features of the civic center. , . . . . He then advised the Planning Commissioners had voted for a C-2-P zoning, _ with five commissioners favoring this rezoning, one. commissioner absent. Mr. Frank Shuman, representing Mr. Bauman and proponents of rezoning to C-2-P stated that not only have the five Commissioners present at the meeting recommended this rezoning, but property owners Henry Keefer and Roscoe Anderson wanted to be placed on record as favoring commercial zoning. Mr. John �2.eginato; 672 State Street, advised he approved C-1 rezoning. That rezoning should be considered from a community interest standpoint rather than as a local matter. Mayor Puryear stated he did not favor C-2-P zoning for this area, but was of the opinion zoning should b.e R-3, R-4 o,r C-1 with a 15 ft. setback that. should be landscaped to enhance the aesthetic value of Parkview Avenue as a boulevard type street. That should commercial development be allowed, he stressed that careful. attention should be given to landscaping in order to provide a beautiful area in.the City of. Redding for years.to come.. ` MOTION: Made byCouncilman Simons, seconded by Councilman Martin that hearing be closed. The Vote: Unanimous A.yes. 480 MOTION: IVlade by Councilman Simons, seconded by Councilman Martin to accept the recommendation of the Planning Commission and subject prop- erty be rezoned and an ordinance be introduced, establishing C-2-P zoning. Voting was as follows: Ayes: Councilmen - Martin and Simons Noes: Councilmen - Moty and Puryear Absent: Councilmen - Fulkerth Mayor Puryear suggested the matter be referred to the-Plani�.ing Director for the next move. Frank Shuman requested the matter be referred to a vote by the complete council. . . . . Councilman Moty stated he was of the opinion that this should not be considered as an average pieee of property, but that public interest must be considered as well as private interests. Councilman•Martin stated he �felt the area should be developed as compatible witli the civic center'across the street, and �suggested the property•be unclass- ified and each proposed use be considered on its own merit. City Attorney Redmon advised it was his opinion a 2 to 2 vote serves as a rejection of rezoning. - MOTION: Made by Councilman Simons�, seconded by Councilman Moty�to rescind previous votes: The Vote: Unanimous A�yes. - MOTION: Made by'Councilrnan Sim'ons, 'seconded by Councilrrian Moty to reopen hearing and continue with the�hearing -- ati.`. 8:00 P:1V1. �1V,tarch 19th.
