Spharler, spoke concerning the proposed transfer of 181 acres in the Bidwell River Park. This would be for a unit of the State Park System. This property was originally given to the State by the Bidwell family; the state transferred it to the County in 1915 and the County has been leasing a portion of the property to the Chico Park and Recreation District. The State has taken a slightly different view of the Sacramento River now; they feel that maybe they should provide a series of parks along the Sacramento River so peopae could land for overnight stays or picnics. Fishermen could use these parks for their activities. Supervisor McKillop asked how the Chico Recreation and Park District felt about the matter. He was told that they are on record as endorsing the proposal. Chairman Madigan asked if the County could reserve the mineral rights. Mr. Spharler said he did not see any real problem with this idea. Mr. Castleberry reported on the areas that the County use for obtaining gravel. The property to be taken over by the State would be that property along the Sacramento River. A proposal will be written up in this matter. The County could reserve a right to the aggragate and bank protection for the people in Che area. Dale Wilson, State Engineer, answered questions about the County roads. The eastern boundary of the property is the County road. If erosion should occur, the Corp would have to take care of it. It was moved by Supervisor McKillop, seconded by Supervisor Cameron and carried, that it is the intent of this Board to negotiate with the State for the land acquisition of the property for the State, in conjunction with County Counsel working up a proposal with Public Works and George Stamm for the retaining of the aggragate and mineral rights. 74-1756 DR.

The property in question has been requested to be annexed to the Oroville-Wgandotte Irrigation District. LAFCO has recommended that these annexation be denied. It is contended that raw ditch water is not a pure source of water. He has discussed this with other counties. The Water Quality Control Board is requiring that before construction is commenced, the developer must list the source of water, Treatment facilities could be used by the developer. Jim Glander, County Building Department, said that this is something that the County staff has not been complying with the State regulations concerning the water problem. Supervisor Ladd explained what has been stated~at_the LAFCO meetings. It is felt that if the County is going to regulate the type water to be used, then a permit should have to be required. Supervisor Ladd said he does not thintc it is in the best interest of the County to oppose use of ditch water if 'they have a treatment facility. They should utilize the water that is available. It was moved by Supervisor Ladd, seconded by Supervisor McKillop and carried, that the application for a @ermit to build must contain a statement of source of water; it will be required that they have potable water; that ditch water will require a treatment facility and that this requirement be dovetailed into the new requirements. 74-1758 PROGRESS REPORT ON WELL ORDINANCE AND DISCUSSION OF REQUEST OF THE WATER QUALITY CONTROL BOARD TO INCLUDE REGULATIONS COVERING DRY WELLS USED FOR STORM DRAINAGE Howard Toussaint gave a progress report on the well ordinance. They have met with the well drillers and the majority of the drillers were in agreement with the County. Use of dry wells set out. The Water Quality Control Board has requested that a regulation be placed on the storm drainage wells; there are some problems that could be created by these wells. Clay Castleberry, Director of Public Works, set out his thinking, in the matter. He explained the incident of pollution of water in this matter. He said that maybe direction should be given to come up with standards for the regulation of these wells. George Stamm does not think these dry wells work properly. The amount of drainage that they do does not outweigh the problems they create. Ile would recommend that. they be prohibited except in the cases where it could be guaranteed that no contamination exists. Until that type proof is available, they should not be allowed. Wells discussed; no action taken at this time.

Richter, representing the Paradise Chamber of Commerce. They feel that there is a discrepancy in the dispursements of the funds. Board reconsideration is being requested; he explained their request.

He would like to see this whole tl ng discussed and a solution set out. The Board interested in the development of the entire County. Request discussed; no action taken.' It was moved by Supervisor McKillop, seconded by Supervisor Ladd and carried, that the Board approve the allocation of the funds set out in the contracts with the Chambers of Commerce of the County, as delineated in the Budget; approve the various contracts and authorized the Chairman to sign.

Following a discussion of the disbursements, Supervisor Cameron changed his "No" vote to an "Aye" vote. Supervisor Cameron said Chat as far as spending so much money to go to fairs and shows, he would rather give the money to the Econom~e Development Commission to go out and bring in industry to make more jobs for the people in the County. Mr. Nickelson will work with Mr. Nicholson on this matter and will schedule this for discussion at a later date. 74-1760 APPEALS SET FOR PUBLIC HEARINGS: January 7, 1974 Jim Lawson, Planning Director, reported on the protest filed by Gloria Ballinger, listed under communications.
