out for RFP's. This was not a low bid item. A bill had been received for
$i2 ,000.
Steve Musselman, administrative-analyst stated they had attempted
to negotiate the fact Paradise had incorporated and their area was not as
large. They were told they could not afford to reduce their income revenues
and if they decided to continue to contract they would have to-leave the price
where it was. They looked at other alternatives. The Administrative Office
felt they should continue until the contract expires in 1983 and at that time
they expect to look at other proposals.
C1if Mickelson, administrative officer, stated there are three
issues: 1) The contract dollar amount and the loss of 26,000 people in
Paradise; 2) Issue of the dog pound in the two cities and they recommend
they refer to County Counsel as this is federal reimbursement money; and
3) Why it costs $17 per day fora cat. Under recent legislation you must
keep a cat for 72 hours.
Mr. Musselman stated the law regarding cats became effective
January 1. Stray cats must be kept 72 hours before disposal. They did
not anticipate-these additions. It has been suggested that people who
bring in cats be charged a fee. There is a 120 day cancellation clause.
They are continuing to pay at th~.~~,ate of $130,000 a year. They will be
running out of funds. Fage 61,

held at this timed
Clay Castleberry, public works director, stated as a folllow-up
to a meeting recommended they start proceeding for formation of a capital
out lay including Ruddy Street basin. To continue to have developers on
the 800 lots-have tentative approval. Or in additionata a maintenance
district to form a county service area for the existing channel and existing
facilities. Then they could continue to develop. He recommended stopping
building permits for single family homes. They would need to loan enough
money to buy a retention site if a maintenance district were formed. A
maintenance district would have difficulty buying the ten acres for the
retention dam. If the channel was-piped the developer would. pay for that
cost if he developed it. He-would be paying more than his fair share.
He felt it would cost $50,000 to purchase the site for the facility.
He felt there would be a $20 per parcel per year if they go without the
assessment district.
Dan Blackstock, county counsel, stated they cannot increase the
taxes above the $1 that is already there. He felt they should forget the
county service area concept. There is a minimum of $1 fax rate and school
bonds are a large part. There is no way legally you can add to that or '_ _.
increase the tax. .When this was done in Paradise they did not have Proposition
13o In the water code thexe are 2 or 300 different directions you can look
at. They cannot expect to expend funds from the general fund and get them
back.
Mr. Castleberry stated there were many type of maintenance
districts.. Any kind would be fine. He did not want to see a laxge capital
outlay. If they cannot find a solution, they should stop building permits
and development.
Supervisor Saraceni stated they are looking ahead to the future
purchasing possibility and at the lowest cost for the residents in the
Thermalito area.
1. Henry McCall, Oroville. Mr. M¢Call`Ifielt they should be aware
of the Oroville City Council's position. He spoke regarding the Vietti
property being annexed into the City. The Council felt they were not in
a position to solve the drainage problem. They had a tremendous problem
with Fogg Road. Funds were spent that should never have been used. There
is water standing on Monte-Vista Avenue, fie is concerned the same thing
will happen in Thermalito. He was not present as a representative of the
City.

requirements. of 40 acres. He objected to the full amount of his 262 acres
and 153 acre contracts not being able to change it in the future. It was
not flexible. He and his wife are to the age they might want to transfer
portions to their children. He understands he could withdraw the contract,
divide his property into smaller parcels and then come back with a contract
request.
Bettye Blair, planning director, stated the Land Conservation Act
Committee voted to recommend these contracts, the Board had copies of the
minutes. There was discussion regarding the possibility of;dvision-of property
and erosion. The current zoning is A-40. The ;,.Committee was trying+to
preserve agriculture land and to have some control.
Dan Blackstock, county counsel, stated if the zoning in the area
was A-5 and in the agreement you could not split 40 to 160 acres, they would
have a cause for action. A resolution was set up in 1967 establishing orchard
as 10 acres, field crop as 40 acres and ranch and grazing land at 160 acres.
There could be a possiblity of violating the zoning laws-and the subdivison
map act.
Mr. Henningan stated he was interested in 1~reaking down to..40 acres.

COMMISSION TO HOLD SPECIAL FETING ON FE$RUARY 9 1981 AT 7:30 P.M.
A report and discussion on the proposed changes in dates for deer
hunting season was held at this time.
Supervisor Saraceni stated he had talked with many individuals the
past week regarding the change of date far deer hunting.
Gene Mercer, secretary, Butte County Fish and Game Commission,. Chico.
Mr. Mercer set out the background on his appearance-two weeks<ago. He came
with a recommendation from the Fish and Game Commission for a change of
opening date. For more than 50 years deer season has apened on the 16th day
of September and closed on the 35th of October. After the department was
formed it was felt the real thing was to give the majority of hunters who
bought tags to hunt. ; -. iTtYSSwas the life blood of the department. It was
decided to open the hunt on a Saturday the nearest to the 20th of September.
That has been the rule for 25 years. This year "~hex'e was a recommendation
to move the date to open to_-Septeiuber 26 and close November 1 in the D2B
district north of Highway 70 and the portion south of the county close the
8th of November.
Jim Snowden, wildlife biologist, Chico. Mr. Snowden felt the change
would be a great benefit to the general public. His proposal which was brought
forward from the Commission has the support of the Nine Northern Counties.
The basis for his recommendation was what was best for the wild life, species
and a benefit to the greatest number of hunters. This year there appears to
be 10 bucks per 100 does, last year it was 9 bucks-per 100 does. It should
be at least 25, it is low. They feel there is less public land for private

81- hunters. Some deer move earlier than others to winter grazing. Some do not
~', move until the first week of October. Spot kill maps indicated in Plumas
County the first week of November they have moved out of Chester. There is
a safety factor with hunting on private property. The Commission was going
to propose the archery season not be changed in length, just set back one
week earlier.
Veitieo::Quanterio was representing about 20 hunters in the area.
He questioned if biologically it would be harmful to close on November 8.
', It was suggested there be a split season. He was not aware of when the
Fish and Game Commission held their meetings.
Tom Sanders, Lakeview Drive. Mr. Sanders spoke in favor of a
split season.
Tom Turk, Durwood Drive. Mr. Turk felt the deer hunting public
should have a change to voice .their opinion. He defended the use of private
hunting clubs. He suggested if there is a poor buck season to discontinue
hunting for two seasons. The gun clubs help subsidize the farmers. He
asked the Board to adopt the State Fish and Game Commission recommendation.
He was in favor of a split season.
Gaylin Taylor, Game Warden, Paradise. Mr. Taylor stated there
would be a problem enforcement wise if a split season was approved. It
would encourage the poachers. He felt everyone has a change°to hunt high
country.
Mr. Mercer stated there would be a tremendous patrol problem.
', He stated he used the wrong word by saying wealthy, he had meant people
*** wha could afford to belong to the hunting club"s.
', Mr. Taylor stated there are pepple who would take advantage
of the split season to poach. Many individuals do not punch their tags
', legally during the regular season.
', Supervisor Lemke stated he f~1t this issue needed more time
and discussion to be presented before the Fish and Game Commission.
Mr. Snowden stated if a decision was to be made by this county
', for this year, it would have to go to the state by the first of March.
The committee will not be meeting unil April.
Jess Gilliam, Chico. Mr. Gilliam is president of the Fish and
Game Commission. He talked to numerous people prior to their meeting and
making a recommendation before the Board. The matter could be referred
back to the commission for a special meeting. He is an archery hunter.

Hearing open to the public. Appearing:
1o Mike Glaze, Cook and Associates, Oroville. Mr. Glaze set out
a brief background on the project. Mr. Rauch has owned the land since 1960.
He had used the land for agriculture purposes but it is no longer economically
feasible. The "ARMH-1" zone was recommended by Planning. Because of density
a one acre was required. As the project has progressed people have purchased
the 8 parcels indicated in red and have applied for land divisions. Mr.
Rauch is willing to change the density to 2z acreso This might mitigate
the intense development. There was discussion of a covenent with the City of
Orovilie. Mr. Rauch does not own all of the property. He was here to request
an extension of time. It is har@ to mitigate the problem with all the owners.
Del Siemsen, deputy county counsel, stated the regulations regarding
an EIR hearing must be heard. If the applicant should withdraw it would end it.
There is no provision to file an appeal. It must be continued to a time certain

DISCUSSION OF NORD-GIANELLA ROAD
Discussian of Nord-Gianella Road was held at this time.
Hal McDonald, assistant public works director, set out the
background on Nord-Gianella Road. Mr. Castleberry had a previous engage-
ment and would be present later. There-has been land leveling by the
farmers in the area. There is some concern about the ditch being on the
right-of-way. There is erosion at one bridge. There is a gravel road
with a section that is paved to the second bridge. He and Mr. Castleberry
had met with Mr. Peterson and Mr. Jenkins. Mr. Peterson will not lower
the levee. The levee was in when Mr. Jenkins purchased the property,
1. Warren Hampton, Chico. Mr. Hampton stated it floods since
the levee was put in. Supervisor Dolan requested a written opinion from
County Counsel. Mr. Hampton presented pimtures for the Board to view.
This has been going on since 1974 and the County doesn~t seem to want
to do anything about it. Anytime there is 1~ inches of rain there property
is flooded. He would like the county to get the water off the road.
Clay Castleberry, public works director, stated some of the
water from Rock Creek and Pine Creek to the west is diverted to the
flood control district. In the Nord-Gianella-Roam there are no flood
control or redemtion districts. We have no land leveling ordinance within
the county. The Hampton's have not been satisfied-_`with work the county
has done. They have-paved part of the road, He did not feel deepening the
ditch would help. He asked the property owner to straighten the corner,
but it will not solve the problem. There have been no complaints from
other property owners in the area.
Mr. Castleberry stated they are going to have to reducecahe road
maintenance level throughout the county.
Mr. Hampton read from the letter he received from Mr. Blackstock.
Mr.t~iampton felt it was up to the county to protect and take care of the
road. There has been two letters asking Mr. Peterson to make changes and
he has ignored them.
Mr. Castleberry felt the channel clearing could be handled through
flood control and a maintenance district. He did not think the county
should be telling Mr. Peterson and Mr. Jenkins what to do. If they want to

Supervisor Lemke stated if lowering the levee did nod solve the
problem they should not be required to do so. He felt the solution was to
form a flood control district. He felt they should get all individuals
together to solve the problem.
', 2, Edith Hampton,CChsco. Mrs. Hampton stated there was a meeting
of people on Rock Creek and Mudd Creek but they were only worried about
the new subdivision going in above them. She would like to see Mr.
Castleberry come across and. help them. There is one swale that backs water
up on the road. ,She did not feel the little individual should pay the costs.
', *~** Mr. Hampton presented slides to the Board at this time.
3. Daniel Springer, Nord, Chico. Mr..Springer stated there has
been more water on the road xecently. He does not have the answer to
eliminating the water.
', Mrs. Hampton felt there was a safety hazard when the water was
on the road. They need an engineers opinion,
4. Bruce McClintock, Chico. Mr. McClintock stated his family
owned the property for 25 years. He felt the problem was both up and down
the stream. He feels it is in the best shape it has ever been.
', Supervisor Dolan is to meet with the individuals involved to
resolve the issue, Mr. Castleberry is to help and will furnish any data
which is necessary.
