olan, the minutes of May 27, 1980 be approved as mailed.
Dan Blackstock, county counsel, stated he was requesting a mod-
fication of minute order 80-855 whereby the Board requested the Clerk`of
he Board to republish the drainage plans. There was an allegation made
uring the hearings that the published notice was inadequate. He has
eviewed and looked-into the matter and felt it was one of the best
ublications they have ever had. In addition to the description there
as a plat map. It was published on April 22, 1980 which was more than
imely. To attempt to notify each individual property owner in the area
ould be quite costly, as the area includes 200 square miles. He felt the
ublication was sufficient. There is no legal requirement for it.

community Action Agency business. He could cut down on his extra help as
hey;8re on a fiscal year, When Community Action Agency had a large turn
wer of staff there were problems with inconsistency. Since the present
staff. has been handling matters there has been less difficulty. They would
Lose the fiscal control of the program should it be "degreened".

her constituents against the "degreening".

which would help with the program. He felt it was a one time cost. Mr.

organized twice now. The first time was staff and second time he delegated
more control to the department heads. Now the executive director does not
have total control. He felt they had a governing Board to oversee them

working with local government. In JackieT~Iulholland's letter she stated
the quarterly reports could be forwarded to the Board of ,Supervisors.

ACRES SUBDIVISION UNIT N0. 2, AP 40-04-36-AND 38, 20 LOTS, SOUTH SIDE OF
ENTLER AVENUE, EAST OF MIDWAY, DURHAM AREA
The public hearing on Malcolm D. Jayred and William S. Towne
appeal of Advisory Agency's mitigation measure relating to the installation
o£ a crossing signal at Enlter Avenue and the Sacramento Northern Railroad
tracks fox Southgate Acres Subdivision Unit No. 2, AY 40-04-36 and 38, 20
lots, south side of Entler Avenue, east of Midway, Durham area was held as
advertised.
Clay Castleberry, public works director, set out the background
on the appeal and location. He stated the frequency of trains is not great,
however, PUC recommends crossing protection on the railroad crossing. The
requirement would cost $50,000 for gates.
Earl Nelson, environmental review director, stated his memo to
the Board covered what their position was in regarding to the required mit-
igation measure in Unit No. 1. It is a policy question on the off-site
improvements.
Mr. Castleberry stated the project had been previously approved,
this is a related improvement.
Hearing open to the public. Appearing:
1. Mr. Rallis Lewis, Nimshew Stage, Chico. Mr. Lewis stated he
was appearing on behalf of the applicants. They are appealing the installation
of the railroad signals. They feel it is not justified at this time. There
are only two trains passing per day. He had hoped that Sacramento Northern
would go on a 50/50 basis. Unit No. 2 consists of 40 one acre lots. There
are twenty other people on Entler Avenue-that are one acre.: or larger. They
object to paying the full $50,000.
Hearing closed to the public and confined to the Board.
There was a motion by Supervisor Moseley, seconded by Supervisor
Wheeler, the appeal on Jayred and Towne be upheld relating to crossing signal
and stipulate somewhere down the line that they be required to pay part of
the expense be approved. Page 458.

- Dan Blackstock, county counsel, stated if Supervisor Moseley was
indicating a deposit, there is-no way effective the county two or three years
down the line could requixe this once the subdivision is approved.
Mr. Castleberry stated he felt possibly in two years they would
need the signals but not lights and gates. He felt possibly a left hand
turn pocket on the Midway would be more efficient and more critical than
the lights and gates. He could address the traffic concern at the intersection.
Supervisor.Wheeler stated at the crossing site it is very short.
She was concerned about traffic backing up onto the Midway. She ~fe1:t it
would be a better investment to require the left turn pocket.
Supervisor Dolan stated the residents in the area were not in
favor of paying for expenses to further develope the area. She felt the
signals and crossing guard would be necessary once there are 40 homes there.
Mr. Castleberry noted it is a spur line to Durham not a main line.
Motion amended:
The appeal of Jayred and Towne mitigation measure relating to
installation of crossing signal at Enlter Avenue and Sacramento Northern
Railroad tracks for Southgate Acres Subdivision Unit No. 2 be upheld; and
Jayred and Towne stipulate that they make a left hand turn pocket on the

it would be using common sense as to the placement of fire hydrants. The

dition.. would cost X2,187. He felt that to require one fire hydrant
would be quite adequate far three lots.

solution and the contribution would set until they get the water.

pay necessary with the irrigation district and whenever it was appropriate
it could be connected with OWID, then they have met their commitment;.
