1416 DELAY ACTION ON PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING PROPOSAL FOR CONSTRUCTION OF A
SANITARY SEWER TRUNK LTNE TO SERVE THE NORTH CHICO AREA UNTTL BUDGET
CONSIDERATIONS
Discussion on the preliminary engineering proposal for construc-
tion of a sanitary sewer trunk line to serve the north Chico area held
at this time.
Clay Castleberry,.public works director, stated that they had
received proposals for preliminary engineering from Ro11s, Anderson and
Rolls. If the Board wants to proceed with possible development of an
assessment district it would be in order to start now. The City of
Chico has started for the southerly Chico area. Most of the north Chico
trunk would be for the unincorporated area. If it is in order, they should
accept Mr. Drake's offer of one-half of the money for the preliminary
engineering and some way to finance the remainder. If the assessment
district is formed, the money would be paid back. It is'in order to authorize
the issuance of ~urchase order for the preliminary work and make an
appropriation fo the other $8,250 in the budget the Board is now considering.
He felt the county should proceed.
Supervisor Winston stated that the Board is going to be
commencing budget deliberations. There are some grave problems in the
budget. Even $8,250 is quite an item. This project is not going to
sink or swim in 30 days.` He would hesitate committing any money out
of the budget.
Supervisor Dolan stated that she could share Supervisor
Winston's concern in a sense. ;:She knew the city's engineering study
was proceeding rapidly. If it is a cooperative effort the county should
also move on the matter. It has been too long in coming. She was
optimistic regarding the assessment district. Money has been offered
by an individualo

79- Supervisor Wheeler felt that the county was dragging their
~ feet. The people have waited a long time for this. She felt the county
should proceed as soon as possible.
Dan Blackstock, county counsel, stated that because of the
present litigation schedule, it would take some time to prepare and
review the contract. This might not be brought back until the budget
is adopted. If the money is not in the anticipated budget, he would
not be inclined to: have the auditor pay out money or the Board to sign
the contract, He felt that with working with other property owners
something could be worked out.
On motion of Supervisor Winston, seconded by Supervisor Moseley
and carried, the action regarding the preliminary engineering proposal
for construction of a sanitary sewer trunk line to serve the north
Chico area was delayed until budget considerations. AYES: Supervisors
Moseley, Winston and Chairman Lemke. NOES: Supervisors Dolan and

ON THE WEST SIDE OF HICKS LANE, APPROX. 400 FEET NORTH OF EATON ROAD,
AP 44-44-63, AND AP 44-45-95, CHICO
The public hearing on R. C. Roberts appeal of Planning
Commissiun~s denial of variance to 25-foot perimeter setback to allow

(mobile home park) located on the west side o£ Hicks Lane, approximately
400 feet north of Eaton Road, AP 44-44-63 and AP 44-48-05, Chico was
held as noticed.
Bettye Blair, planning director, set out the background of
the appeal. The Board has copies of the Planning Commission minutes
and staff findings. At the time the Planning Commission denied the
variance they were discussing whetherti~ere had been construction and
under what permits. It appeared some utilities were installed
within the area of the setback.
Hearing open to the public, Appearing: Jay Talbot, representing
R. C. Roberts. Mr. Talbot stated that the park was built and they are
in the process of completa.ng the park. The setback is the only problem

Supervisor Winston stated that the Board received a memo that
says the zoning was for a mobile home park with Ordinance 1179 being
adopted June 29, 1971, Apparently a use permit was granted in September
of 1972 and improvements were started in 1973. He wondered if the people
were aware of the setback requirements.
Mr. Talbot stated that his company acquired the park after it was
semi-completed The utilities were in. There has been no request for
hookup of the utilities until they are complete and they meet the codes
and standards. They acquired the property last year. The mobile home
-park was started under "C-C" zoning. They do not have the raom to
accomodate the unites- The utilities are within ten feet of the property
line and should be within four feet of the mobile home.
Dan Blackstock, county counsel, stated that economic reasons
are not sufficient grounds to grant a variance. The Board's ability to
grant a variance are quite limited.
Del Siemsen, deputy county counsel, stated that it is not
a size problem but more an economic problem. '
Mr. Talbot stated that the wall on flicks Lane is one foot
back. In front of that is the flood control channel. The north property
line is a prune orchard. They will plant trees every six feet on the
perimeter.
Supervisor Winston stated that there is a piece of property
that was developed for a mobile hame park some years ago and certain work
was done under existing conditions and there was a financial disaster.
There is a lot of conduit in the ground and there it sited The new
owners come along and want to clean the property up so that it can be
used. Supervisor Winston asked Counsel if this situation could be
termed under special circumstances.
Mr. Blackstock stated that the last sentence of the code
section has a bearing on the mattero The fact of the matter is the
Board is allowing a mobile home park additional use of their property
over the use of other mobile home parked Mobile home parks are an
internal design that is determined by an individual and the Board is
hard put to find a reason for a variance unless there is some specific
problem with the shape.
Mr. Talbot stated that he was not asking for anything that is
not granted under "C-C"zoning. Many mobile home parks are not built
under "MHP" zoning. They are built under the."C-C" zoning with a use
permit, This makes them legal to go ten feet from the property line.
Ms. Blair stated that the mobile home park to the north
has pulled back 180 feet, The perimeter is to be 70 feet,
Supervisor Dolan felt that the Board had the information that
the Planning Commission did not have. She asked if this could be referred
back to the Planning Commission,
Mro Talbot stated that they had not anticipated any lots not
being usabf~0- They will have to go in and tear out the utilities on the
perimeter lots and start over. The property would not be feasible to
start over.
Discussion of possibly putting the property back into the
"C-C" zoning classification held at this time,

Ms. Blair stated that the Board could initiate an action and
then require a use permit. The. mobile home park zoning does not require
anything other than approval of design criteria set out in the ordinance.
A rezone to the commercial district may fall into an environmental review
situation. Tt might not be as easy as it seems.

On motion of Supervisor Winston, seconded by Supervisor Dolan

Supervisor Wheeler felt that maybe economic reasons should be
justified for a variance. She would like to look into having the
law~~hanged.
Supervisor Wheeler was given permission to work with County
Counsel on this matter.
ADOPT ORDINANCE 2043: PUBLIC HEARING: ROBERT C. VIETTI, PH.D. - PROPOSID
NEGATIVE DECLARATION AND REZONE FRAM "A-R" (AGRICULTURAL-RESIDENTLAL) TO
"R-2" (DUPLEX RESIDENTIAL) PROPERTY LOCATED ON THE NORTH SIDE OF NELSON
AVENUE, APPROX. 1/4 MILE WEST OF 6Tki STREET, AP 31-02-20_, _OROVILLE
The public hearing on Robert C. Vieth , Ph.D. proposed negative
declaration and rezone from "A-R" (agricultural-residential) to "R-2"
(duplex residential) property located on the north side of Nelson Avenue,
approximately 1/4 mile west of 6th Street, AP 31-02-20, Oroville was
e1d as advertised.
Earl Nelson, environmental review director, sat out the
background of the negative declaration. The plan indicated by the
developer is that he would like to place 150 duplex units on the
property. This would be 300 residential units. The environmental
evaluations are based on that proposal. The area is not a sensitive area
other than the typical things like traffic and drainage increases and
compatibility with the surrounding areao There is sufficient capacity
in the drainage system to accomodate the increase. He was of the opinion
that the drainage deposits contributed by the developer would take care
of the problems. There are several residents to the south and either
public land or vacant land to the east is Nelson Avenue School, The
schools felt the development was inevitable. The traffic figures are
incorrect in the checklist. The figures should be doubled. This would
be about 2,000 cars per day. Nelson Avenue has been rebuilt and is
adequate to accomodate the traffic. He recommended a negative declaration.
Bettye Blair, planning director, set out the background of
the rezone. The Board has copies of the minutes and staff findings.

APPEARANCE: GEORGE MC LANE::
Reverend McLane read a letter of resignation from the Board of
Directors of the Superior California Senior Citizens. The reason for
the resignation is due to the fact that the corporation liability
insurance requires a $5,000 deductible amount per member. It was his
recommendation that a supervisor be appointed to the board as they are
covered under the county`s insurance. The other reason a supervisor
should be appointed is because of the increasingly complex negotiations
with the Department of Aging on Area Agency on Aging. On August 29,
1979 at 10:00 a.m. in the Shasta County Board of Supervisors Chambers
there will be a meeting of the board and the Department of Aging. He
hoped that a supervisor could attend that meeting.
Discussion of the insurance requirement held at this time.
Clif Nickelson, administrative officer, stated that this organization is
an independent nonprofit corporation. Consequently, the county cannot
cover a private person appointed to a separate corporation. The Board
members are covered in serving for the county in a much broader sense.
The Board accepted Reverend McLane's resignation with regret.

APPEARANCE: ED BROWN ASSESSOR RE: 1979-80 SECURED ASSESSMENT ROLL
Ed Brown, assessor, reported on the 1979-80 secured assessment
roll. The total roll is an increase over last year of 12.97%. Mr. Brown
stated that the county had about 1,500 new parcels over last year. There
is a tremendous amount of construction. Mr. Brown set out the increases
in the business properties within the county at this time. Another
thing that made the increase in the roll was the fact that the commercial
property was carried on Iast yearTs roll with a 1969 and 1970 value.
His office had to bring up the values on the commercial properties.
Most of them will be increased this year. They have tried to make the
level of assessment the same as that used by the assessor in 1975.
This did not bring property to what is termed full market value.
They have reached the conclusion that the property was put on the roll
at about 87% of market value.
Mr. Brown also reported on the open space contract lands.
According to the original concept they would be taken back to the 1975
year. Legislation precluded- this and said to disregard the base year
under Proposition 13 and a value for tax purposes will be made :each
year. They did not receive significant reductions if any over the last
year.
Mr. Brown stated that with the increase in the unsecured roll
of over 16% the overall increase to the roll was 13027% for both rolls.
The figure for the utility roll is a 5% increase.

in commercial businesses. These would only be used for drain pipes.
The drainage will be much less than the average home as they do not have
a kitchen or facilities like those in a home. The Building Department
advised him that he would .have to get permission from the Board for use
of this pipe.
Clay Castleberry, public works director, stated that there is
a Building Code Appeals Committee that reviews things like this. The
reason the Board took the action regarding the fire station was because
the Board was involved. He felt it was appropriate for the matter to
be referred to the Committee.
Dan Blackstock, county counsel, advised that they must proceed
to the Committee under the County Code.
Mr. Castleberry stated that he would be happy to set up a
meeting as early as possible.
SUPPORT ACTIONS OF CITY OF CHICO RE: AIR SERVICE IN BUTTE COUNTY
~e Even, representing Paradise Chamber of Commerce, presented
a letter to the Board. The Chamber of Commerce is asking that the Board
take some action with regardr.to air service in Butte County. They are
concerned with the fact that Air Pacific has stated they will discontinue
service on September 15, 1979. The. reasons for pulling out is that
there is not ample business to justify the stop. The Chamber has been
informed that they are not performing their business. The Civil
Aeronautics Board has advised the Chamber of Commerce that the City of
Chico or the Board must file a petition regarding the value of service.
They are requesting that there be a request to the CAB that Hughes Air
West return to Chico. Pressure should be brought to rectify the condition,
United Airlines is naw flying into Visalia and has not been permitted to
discontinue service to that community.
Mike Pyeatt, assistant administrative officer, stated that
the City of Chico has already filed a petition with the CAB to institute
a procedure for them to make a recommendation of what is essential
transporation needs of Butte County. There are a number of communities
experiencing the same problems There will be a hearing on October 21,
1979 for the CAB to take action. The issue regarding the Hughes Air West
pull out is a dead issue. The City Attorney has been given authority to
file a petition of intervention should it be necessary on the pull out of
Air Pacific. John Doughtery just received a letter from Air Pacific
moving back the pull out to October 1, 19790 This is the third letter
he has received. The Airport Commission will be meeting with representatives
of Air Pacific and Hughes Air West tonight at 7:30 p.m. in the Airport
Conference Room.
On motion of Supervisor Dolan, seconded by Supervisor Wheeler
and unanimously carried, a representative will be sent to the meeting
in support of maintaavsg air services in Butte County and the Board
supports the actions of the City of Chico and will join in any issues
that arise.

AISCUSSION: SCHOOL C1t03STATG_GUARD AND REQUIREMENTS OF.AB8
Gene Even, Paradise Unified School District, stated that the
funding of school crossing guard attendents are part of AB 8. The,
District is demanding that something be done as there has been accidents
in front-of the school. He asked that either the Board at this Cime
accept the responsibility for the crossing guards or indicate they will
not be able to and then the school district will do so until the decision
is made. They will have to have crossing guards when school begins.
Aan Blackstock, county counsel, stated that up until last year
the school district [bas not allowed to hire crossing guards. There were
code sections added .which authorized the school to pay for crossing guards.
The second section authorized the county to allow reimbursements to come
out of fine money or any other funds they wanted to, Under AB 8, it makes
it mandatory that the school district can be reimbursed under Section
42201 which is fine money or shall be reimbursed from filnds including but
not limited to fine money. There is a passibility of working with CETA.
Jim Rackerby, personnel director, stated that the school
districts can use CETA Title IIB positions.
Mro Blackstock stated that the first part of the Bill deals
with when a county fails or refuses to adopt standards. To his knowledge
there have been no standards adopted. The school district has the
authority to hire a crossing guard and the Board has the authority to
give assistance under the fine money. The new section is mandatory.
The district can obviously work with CETA.
C1if Mickelson, administrative officer, stated that the district
could supply the crossing guards. The question now is where the funding
would come from with the AB 8 funding.
Mr. Even stated that he did not believe that CETA crossing
guards should~be placed in the crossings without proper instruction.
He will rely on the Sheriff's Office for training.
No action taken.

legal. They have gone through litigation on the issues raised. If
the Board does not like the contract and do not want the contract, then

79- Will Manley, district attorney, stated that he would like to
$ discuss the agreement to extend the Consumer Protection Unit until
April 30, 1980 that was discussed earlier by the Board. The matter was
tabled and he requested that the Board reconsider the agreement.
Supervisor Winston stated that the agenda item was dismissed
and now the Board is in hearings on the budget.
Chairman Lemke advised that the item was discussed and action
was postponed until budget hearings. He wondered if Hr. Hartley would
be able to discuss the matter on Thursday afternoon.
Mr. Mattley stated that this was not a budget item. It is
a request for the county to received $2fl,000 in funds.
Chairman Lemke set August 30, 1979 at 1:00 p.m. for department
heads to present their budgets to the Board.
Mr. Johansen stated that the decision packages indicate the
purposes of the various functions and the costs versus the benefit of
the different department. He hoped this would serve as an evaluation
of the departmental requests. He hoped it would serve as a reference
for future evaluation and the beginning of a zero base budget concepto
The proposed budget was adopted in June, 1979° At that time there were
a significant number of unknowns. Mr. Johansen presented a summary of the
fund status as estimated with the understanding that they are still in
a situation of not knowing the county share of the 1979-80 property taxes.
They are hoping to have the calculations required by AB 8 ready in
another two weekse
The summary does not include the state buy back. The state
has assumed Medi Cal and SST in the $3 million amount, The bail-out
the county was eligible for last year was cut to Zero. Subsequently
additianal information was made available for a portion of the $335,000
in bail-out funds which was accrued as fund balances available.
He was informed yesterday that the figure has been audited downwards.
C1if`Mickelson, administrative officer, stated that they
have put together a new total for the budget. They estimated the available
finances. They were sure there would not be that much property tax
money .available. The increase in the assessment roll will help somewhato
This was put together before AB 8 was passed.
Hr. Johansen stated that the available financing from
the proposed budget is $48 million. There were technical adjustments
because of property taxes that include homeowners and inventory exemptions
that must be deleted, To fund the budget excluding property taxes the
Board will need $48,214,000a Since the adoption of the budget there was
an additional fund balance of $727,000 which was more than anticipated.
They were 14% under the estimate. This makes up part of the $1.6 million
short in the proposed budget. Tn addition to that, there is a reduction
of expenditures because of SSI and Medical. This effect on the budget
is $1 million. Subsequently, he had more available information on the
sales tax and the revenue estimate was revised upward in the amount of
$1,800,000. The net result of the adjustments is there is $49,870,000
available except for property tax revenue, He added an estimate of
property tax in the amount of $6,253,000. This makes the sum total of
available revenue $56,123,000, The total budget requirements are
$56,132,000, As it stands, if the assumptions are correct, there is
enough funding available to fund the budget as it stands.

Mr. Nickelson advised that Mr. Rackerby was working on those
Mr. Johansen stated that $600,000 was a rough estimate of what
the county would need if Paradise is incorporated. It could go from
$600,000 to over $1 million. A good estimate would be maybe $750,000.
The law provides that whenever there is an incorporation the county and
other agencies must continue to provide services that they are now providing.
Many of the state revenue sources will accrue to the benefit of that
city and to the detriment of the county. The county would be required
to provide services until July 1, 1980.
Mr. Nickelson stated that the budget adjustment presented to
the Board was a net increase. Some are policy related.
The following budget adjustments were made with the Board to
