MEETING DATE: August 19, 2025 ITEM NO. 6.1 FROM: ***APPROVED BY*** sbade@cityofredding.org btippin@cityofredding.org SUBJECT: 6.1--Public Hearing to consider adoption of a new Ordinance amending Redding Municipal Code Title 6 – Business Taxes, Licenses and Regulations – by adding Chapter 6.42 – Entertainment Zones Steve Bade, Assistant City Manager Report to Redding City Council August 13, 2025 Re: 6.1--Public Hearing regarding an Entertainment Zone in Downtown Redding Page 2 Alternative Action The City Council (Council) could decline to pursue an Entertainment Zone at this time ; direct staff to modify the Entertainment Zone parameters and continue the public hearing; or provide staff alternate direction. Background/Analysis Senate Bill 969, effective January 1, 2025, authorizes California cities to create designated public "entertainment zones," where individuals, aged 21 and over, may legally possess and consume open containers of alcoholic beverages purchased from licensed participating businesses. The goal of this legislation is to stimulate local economies, enhance cultural and social activities, and promote downtown vibrancy through well-regulated public spaces. In April 2025, City Manager Office staff and Chief Barner met with a representative group of downtown restaurant and bar owners; property owners; and event holders to discuss and evaluate the potential formation of an Entertainment Zone in downtown Redding. On June 13, 2025, The City Council directed staff to develop guidelines and return at a future City Council meeting. The following key parameters were collectively identified and are proposed in the ordinance and resolution: • Geographic Boundaries: The proposed Entertainment Zone is bordered by Eureka Way to the north; Lincoln Street to the south; Oregon Street to the west; and Pine Street/East Street alley to the east as specifically described in the attached map and ordinance exhibit. • Days of Operation: The zone would operate every day of the year (365 days), creating a consistent and predictable environment for residents, businesses, and visitors. • Hours of Operation: Alcohol consumption would be permitted from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily, allowing for safe daytime and early evening enjoyment while minimizing late-night disturbances. • Allowable Open Alcoholic Beverage Containers: The City will determine a standardized container for alcohol consumption within the zone. At present, staff is considering the use of a durable, non-glass, non-metal container which is in line with the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) Guidelines, affixed with a recognizable sticker or marking, issued by licensed participating vendors, to easily identify compliant containers. • Alcohol Type: The type of alcoholic beverage permitted will not be restricted, allowing beer, wine, and spirits to be served in accordance with individual business licenses and state law. • Signage: The Downtown Entertainment Zone boundaries will be clearly marked by visible signage posted at every intersection of the zone. The signage will instruct patrons not to carry alcoholic beverages outside the zone. • Two-Year Review: The operation of the Downtown Entertainment Zone will be reviewed not less than every two years following the adoption of the ordinance to ensure that the Downtown Entertainment Zone is being maintained in a manner that protects the health and safety of the general public. This review shall be conducted by the City Manager or their designee and in consultation with Redding Police Department and ABC. Report to Redding City Council August 13, 2025 Re: 6.1--Public Hearing regarding an Entertainment Zone in Downtown Redding Page 3 If the ordinance is approved, staff will continue to conduct outreach with downtown businesses, RPD, ABC, and community members to inform zone logistics and ensure alignment with public safety and operational needs. Staff believes that the Downtown Redding Entertainment Zone will stimulate the downtown Redding economy, further support ongoing revitalization efforts and enhance the visitor experience. Environmental Review This action is not considered a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and is therefore exempt from CEQA review at this stage. Council Priority/City Manager Goals • Economic Development - “Facilitate and become a catalyst for economic development in Redding to create jobs, retain current businesses and attract new ones, and encourage investment in the community. • Government of the 21st Century – “Be relevant and proactive to the opportunities and challenges of today’s residents and workforce. Anticipate the future to make better decisions today.
