COMMUNICATIONS, PETITIONS & REMONSTRANCES:
Community Center A letter from Planning Director John Fregonese was
read concerning the history and use of the Community
Center in recent years, and a request to continue with
the present policy of occasionally booking the Center
to groups other than the Folkdancers on Friday nights.
On a question from Arnold, Fregonese said the contract
calls for 30 days notice to terminate. Reid feels the
Folkdancers serve a need in the community. Elerath
said they have been using the Center for 15 years and
it wasn't fair to bump them. He can see the need for
them to have a regular meeting place and if they are
not paying their fair share, they should be asked to
pay more.
,_._._._.._~--_._-,"'.__.,._.._-_.__.~~_.
Arthur Clemons, 175 California St., spoke for the
Folkdancers explaining that the same people don't
dance every time, therefore it's hard to measure the
number of people they serve. Their dances have
various levels of difficulty but the steps are learned
very easily and all age groups get involved. They
have tried to get a formal policy on the use of the
center, and don't object to being bumped once in a
while but want to be assured it won't happen too
often. On a question from Arnold concerning problems
with dancing other places, Clemons said the Legion
Hall's floor is too hard, and the lighting is poor.
Laws asked if the. group would be open to being bumped
six times a year if it was not more than twice in any
three-month period, and Clemons said yes.
Bill Ashworth, 201 Granite St., said the real issue is
whether the building is a Community Center or a
Performing Arts Center. He noted there were 36 people
from their group in the audience, and felt a Community
Center Board should be appointed to run the Center.
Mirriam Marrs, -150 Sixth St., said it would be appro-
priate for some groups to use Hunter Park and she
would be willing to serve on a Community Center Board.
Dan Hamnet of Talent talked of the difficulty of
moving their equipment which is stored there and said
the acoustics in the Center aren't the best for
musical performances. He asked if City had been
soliciting groups specifically for Friday nights and
Fregonese said no, they market the Center for use
at all times.

COMMUNICATIONS, PETITIONS & REMONSTRANCES: (Continued)
Community Center Michaele Sallade', 8 Beach Street, felt City was
soliciting to rent Center to other groups to get more
revenue, but understood the Children's Group had been
offered free use. She also read a letter from the
Heather & Rose Scottish & English Dancers in support
of the Folkdancers.

Councilor Laws suggested a policy be adopted whereby
the grandfather groups using the center be bumped no
more than six times a year, including once for the
annual maintenance of the building, and not more than
twice in a three-month period. These groups will only
be bumped by groups meeting the following conditions:
1) they give six weeks notice; 2) they are open to the
public; 3) their activity is of general interest to
the public; and 4) they have an expected attendance of
50 or more. Laws made the foregoing a motion which
was seconded by Elerath. The motion passed
unanimously on voice vote.
Director of Public Works Alsing said there has been a
little rain lately and we're in good shape. He
suggested waiting a couple weeks before taking conser-
vation measures. No action necessary.
City Administrator Almquist said the seller had
accepted the City's offer of $16,000 and it was now
necessary for Council to authorize the Mayor and City
Recorde~ to sign the agreement. Reid so moved,
Elerath'seconded the motion which passed unanimously
on voice vote.
It was decided to hold the discussion of the liquor
license/property tax payment issue prior to talking
about the Mark Antony liquor license. Councilor
Arnold said its good for business to have taxes paid
and we should stay with original policy. Laws felt
lessees should not be penalized when they have no
control over payment of taxes on a leased building.
Williams wanted to be flexible and give owners a time
frame to pay taxes current, review the tax rolls each
year and if not paid, revoke liquor license recommen-
dation. Acklin was not opposed to being flexible.
Mayor Medaris noted that alcohol causes the majority
of problems for our Police Dept., which is funded
partially by property taxes.

(Continued)
Laws moved to change the policy whereby applicants or
owners who certified that they could not pay taxes
current were offered a plan to bring them current
within three years, and payment would be a condition
of liquor license renewal. Williams seconded the
motion. Arnold felt we would get further behind in
the collection of taxes. City Attorney Salter said if
tax records were Checked prior to annual renewal,
they would not get very far behind. On roll call vote
the motion failed as follows: Elerath, Reid and
Arnold, NO; Williams, Acklin and Laws, YES; Mayor
Medaris broke the tie with a NO vote.
On the question of denying a liquor license
recommendation if a person was charged with a crime,
Laws felt the application should be processed as if
the person was innocent. If they were found guilty,
this would be taken into account in a year when the
license was up for renewal. Arnold moved that a
charge or accusation of a crime not be the basis for
denial of approval of a liquor license. Laws seconded
the motion which passed unanimously on voice vote.
nn .D~ (Reid asked that a notification system be devised where
~-t~rhoLPeoPle were made aware of the liquor license policy.
Mark Antony ~ife(f' Reference was made to the recommendation from City
Liquor License Attorney Salter included in the agenda packet. Arnold
moved to deny the motion to reconsider their previous
denial qf liquor license approval. Laws seconded the
motion which passed on voice vote as follows:
Elerath, NO; Reid, Williams, Acklin, Laws and Arnold;
YES.
NEW & MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS:
Council Liaison A letter was read from Lance Pugh requesting a Council
Ashland Performing Liaison to the Ashland Performing Arts Center Board of
Arts Center Board Directors. Mayor Medaris appointed Councilor Laws,
Arnold moved to approve the appointment and Reid
seconded the motion which passed unanimously on voice
vote.
So. Pioneer St.
A letter from the Parks Commission was read requesting
a study of So. Pioneer Street to explore the
feasibility of either closing the dirt section to
vehicular traffic or paving it. Reid asked that
people in the neighborhood be kept posted and said the
Parks Commission will hold a public forum at one of
their meetings. Council asked staff to proceed with
cost estimates for paving, and a study on the impact
of closing the street. A public hearing will be held
at a later date.

PUBLIC FORUM:
Halloween Food
Booth Report
Acklin moved to accept the financial commentary for
the period ending September 30, 1987 and place it on
file; Arnold seconded the motion which passed unani-
mously on voice vote.
A memo was read from the Traffic Safety Commission
concerning the possibility of a pedestrian walkway on
Wimer Street. Public Works Director Alsing showed a
plat of the area and said a walk could be developed on
the north side of Wimer between North Main and
Chestnut St., but would not be possible on that side
behind the curb between Chestnut and Prim Streets.
Parking is checkerboarded because of icy conditions in
the winter. Marilyn Bolstad, 481 Thornton Way,
expressed concerns for school children from Briscoe
School who use Wimer and said the School District does
not provide busing because of the steepness of the
street and abuse to engines. On a question from
Elerath as to other routes, Bolstad said there was no
other way for small children to walk. Susan Mann, 477
Taylor St., owns property on Wimer and said the
developer had assured property owners that sidewalks
would be built when the street was paved in 1978.
Karl Hesse, 117 Nab Hill, is Principal of Briscoe
School and expressed willingness to work with the
Council in alleviating this hazard. Laws moved to
research the records to see if a walkway had been a
condition of the paving; obtain cost estimates and
hold me~tings with the property owners; and request
the Traffic Safety Commission to look at parking on
one side and striping on the other as an interim
measure. Acklin seconded the motion which passed
unanimously on voice vote.
Emile Cloutier, speaking for the Kiwanis Club, ex-
pressed thanks "for being allowed to have a food booth
on Halloween and reported a profit of $2600 which,
along with last Halloween's booth and the 4th of July
booth, the Club will be able to donate $4,000 to the
YMCA's Tolman Creek Park playground. He suggested
that next year service oriented non-profit groups
be given first option to have booths on Halloween.
William Thompson, 809 Clay Street, said he appreciated
the way the Council conducted their business and asked
about garage sale signs and why they were pulled off
poles. He was told that it was against City Ordinance
to tack anything to the poles and people who did were
asked by the Police Department not to do so. There
being no further comment from the audience the public
forum was closed.

CONCURRENT REQUEST TO APPROVE A MINOR LAND PARTITION )
TO CREATE TWO LOTS. )
APPLICANT: LYLE REEDER )
RECITALS:
1) Tax Lot 1200 of 39 IE 15D is located directly to the north
and to the east of the current Ashland City Limits, with the north
property line abutting Peachey Road. Subject parcel totals 2.58
acres in size. The parcel is presently zoned RR-5, Rural
Residential, minimum five acre parcel size" Jackson County Zoning.
2) The applicant has requested an annexation an zone change
from RR-5 to R-l-l0, Single Family Residential. The site
presently has one dwelling located on it, with accessory
structures.
3) The criteria for annexation of property are found in
Chapter 18.108.190 of Ashland's Land Use Ordinance. These
standards identify specific findings which must be made to justify
such a request. Further~ the City's Comprehensive Plan has been
acknowledged by the Land Conservation Development Commission under
ORS 197.251(1). This annexation is consistent with the LCDC
goals.
4) The Planning Commission, after proper public notice, held a
Public Hearing on October 14, 1987 at which time testimony was
received and Exhibits were presented. The Planning Commission
adopted a recommendation for Council approval for the proposed
annexation and rezone subject to certain conditions which would
guarantee the appropriate development of this site. Further, the
Minor Land Partition was approved contingent upon the Council's
approval of the annexation and rezone.
Now, therefore,
The Planning Commission of the City of Ashland finds, concludes,
and recommends as follows:
SECTION 1 FINDINGS
1.1 The Planning Commission hereby incorporates by the
slides presented at the hearing noted as "Exhibits A and B", the
,.,--r .----
.
~
Staff Report noted as "Exhibit C", the plans on file in the
Department of Community Development including the site plan and
applicant findings noted as "Exhibit 0", and minutes from the
PUblic Hearing on this proposal held on October 14, 1987 noted as
"Exhibit E."
SECTION 2 CONCLUSORY FINDINGS
2.1 The Commission finds that it has received all
information necessary to make a decision based on the Staff
Report, Public Hearing Testimony, and the Exhibits received and
reviewed.
2.2 The Commission finds that the annexation as proposed
will meet the qualifications mandated in Chapter 18.108.190,
Annexations. Approval of the Minor Land Partition with the
attached conditions, will ensure that the proposal will be in
conformance with the Ashland Land Use Ordinance.
2.3 The applicant has made the requisite findings for a
request for annexation and zone change. The land is within the
City's Urban Growth Boundary; the proposed zoning and project are
in conformance with Ashland's Comprehensive Plan; the land is
currently contiguous with the present City limits; public services
are or can be made available to the site; and there does exist a
public need for additional land so zoned as defined in the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
SECTION 3 DECISION
3.1 Based on the record of the Public Hearing on this
matter, the Planning Commission concludes that the proposal for an
annexation and rezoning of the subject property has be
substantiated. Therefore, the Planning Commission recommends that
Council approve the annexation and rezone request. The Commission
further approves the Minor Land partition as submitted contingent
upon the following recommended conditions of approval:
1) That the applicant provide a legal description prepared and
stamped by a State of Oregon registered surveyor prior to the
first reading of the ordinance for annexation and rezone.
2) That the applicant sign in favor of future improvements to
Peachey Road.
3) That the applicant agree to extend the sewer main as
necessary from Hillview down Peachey Road. All cost to be borne
by the applicant and all work to be done to the standards of the
City Public Works Department.

annexation form.
5) That the applicant pay the Systems Development Annexation
Fee. Such fee shall be due and payable upon the issuance of a
valid Building Permit; or upon the issuance of a valid permit for
a connection on the City's water or sewer system, whichever of the
foregoing occurs first. The amount of the fee is approximately
$4,300.
6) That all City utilities, including water, sewer, and
electric connections, with appropriate and necessary easements, be
installed and provided to the standards established by the City of
Ashland Public Works Department and Electric Department.
7) That a survey of the partition be completed within one year
of the approval of the minor land partition and that the survey be
submitted for review and approval by the City's Engineering and
Planning Departments.

STAFF REPORT
October 14, 1987
PLANNING ACTION: 87-117
APPLICANT: Robert Lyle Reeder
LOCATION: 1660 Peachey Road
ZONE DESIGNATION: RR-.5
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Low Density Residential
ORDINANCE REFERENCE: Chapters 18.16, 18.76 and 18.108
REQUEST: For an Annexation, Zone Change and Minor Land Partition
of property at 1660 Peachey Road.
I. Relevant Facts
1) Background - History of Application: There are no
Planning Actions of record for this site.
2) Detailed Description of the site and Proposal: Tax10t
1200 of 391E15D is a 2.58 acre parcel located on county
land approximately 160 feet west of Hillview Street. The
north property line of this parcel fronts on Peachey Road
and the south property line fronts on Bristol street.
The east property line fronts the City limit
line. The parcel is inside the Urban Growth Boundary.
Average slope on this parcel is to the north at -11
percent. The jparcel is not in any designated Flood
Zones. A 1020 square foot single family residence sits
on the north west corner or downhill side of the lot
near Peachey Street and near it there is an 820 square
foot shop and a garage. There are no other structures or
uses on the parcel other than the single family
residence.
The proposal is to Partition the parcel into two lots of
approximately one acre and 1.5 acres, respectively, and
annex them into the city. Adjacent zoning to the south
is R-1-10 and to the north and east is R-1-7.5. This
area, if annexed, would also be R-1-10. The applicant
has stated an intention to use both lots for one single
family residence each. While these are rather large
lots for this zone, the applicant has not stated any
immediate plans for further division. Future division
of the lots is possible, however, and could be
accomplished through the use of flag lots since the
frontage to public streets is limited. City services are
available to these proposed lots, although Bristol
Street has a moratorium placed on it for street cuts
until June of 1989. Water service would be provided off
T-,----
\ .
'----' .
~!
of Bristol Street while sewer can be made available from
an extension of the main from Hillview along Peachey, or
by pumping the sewer up to Bristol. An easement is
proposed from Peachey Street up the east line of the
lower lot to allow for sewer access to this street for
the upper lot.
II. Project Impact
Staff perceives little appreciable negative impact from the
annexation of this property. The development, as proposed,
would provide few additional auto trips on the existing
streets. Bristol and Hillview are presently improved city
streets capable of handling the additional traffic.
Staff also sees little problem with the minor land
partition. While the lots are large, and there is potential
for further division, it will be somewhat limited by the
lack of adequate access to public streets, requiring
partitioning to be done by flag lots.
III. Procedural - Required Burden of Proof
The criteria for approval of an Annexation are found in
18.108.190 and are as follows:
A. That the land is within the City's Urban Growth
Boundary.
B. That the proposed zoning and project are in
conformance with the City's Comprehensive Plan.
c. That the land is currently contiguous with the present
City limits.
D. That public services are available or can be made
available to the site.
E. That a public need for additional land, as defined in
the City's Comprehensive Plan, can be demonstrated.
The applicant has submitted findings adequately addressing
these criteria.
The criteria for approval of a minor land partition are
found in 18.76.050 and are as follows:
A) The future use for urban purposes of the remainder
of the tract under the same ownership will not be impeded.
B) The development of the remainder of any adjoining
land or access thereto will not be impeded.
C)
The tract of land has not been partitioned for 12
,.r-----y---~-"~.. .L
u
~)
months.
D) The partitioning is not in conflict with any law,
ordinance or resolution applicable to the land.
E) The partitioning is in accordance with the design
and streets standards contained in the chapter on
subdivisions.
F) When there exists a 20-ft. wide access improved to
the minimum standards established in Section 18.76.170.-
The applicant has submitted findings adequately addressing
these criteria.
IV. Conclusions and Recommendat~ons
Staff recommends approval of the annexation and minor land
partition with the following conditions:
,1) That the applicant provide a legal description
prepared and stamped by a State of Oregon registered
surveyor prior to the notice for a public hearing before the
Ashland City Council.
2) That the applicant sign in favor of future
improvements to Peachey Road.
3) That the applicant agree to extend the sewer main
as necessary from Hillview down Peachey Road. All costs to
be borne by the. applicant and all work to be done to the
standards of the City Public Works Department.
4) That the owner of the parcel shall sign a consent
to annexation form prior to the public hearing by the City
Council.
5) That the applicant pay the Systems Development
Annexation Fee. Such fee shall be due and payable upon the
issuance of a valid Building Permit1 or upon the issuance of
a val id permi t for a cori'nection on the Ci ty I S wa ter or sewer
system, whichever of the foregoing occurs first. The amount
of the fee is approximately $4,300.
6) That all City utilities, including water, sewer,
and electric connections, with appropriate and necessary
easements, be installed and provided to the standards
established by the City of Ashland Public Works Department
and Electric Department.
7) That a survey of the partition be completed within
one year of the approval of the minor land partition and
that the survey be submitted for review and approval by the
City's Engineering and Planning Departments.

Dear Honorable Mayor ~ordon Medaris
and Members of the Ashland City Council,
The Ashland Family YMCA would like to apply for Community
Development Block Grant (C.D.B.G.) funds to help construct Phase
#1 of the YMCA facility. C.D.B.G. funds must be used for the
construction or renovations of community facilities that agree to
provide programs for low to moderate income families. In order to
be eligible for these funds the YMCA must apply through the City
of Ashland. We have hadprel iminary discussions with the City
Planning Department and have their endorsement to pursue the project.
The Grant application would be prepared by a private consultant
of which the YMCA's Board of Directors has agreed to pay for. It
would, however, be necessary to consult and get informati'On from
John Fregonese during the grant application process.
Phase #1 of the YMCA facility (which would be located on our
property off of YMCA way - next to the As'h 1 and YMCA City Park 1
would include childcare facili~i~s, multi-purpose room, weight
room, kitchen, mens and womens locker rooms and off'i-ces. The
preliminary cost estimates to construct phase #1 (which is 7,680
sq. ft.) is $460,000. The YMCA anticipates having approximately
~ of the funds necessary to build and therefore, would request
$230,000 in Community Development Block Grant Funds. The YMCA
already owns the property and has pre-paid for all the necessary lot
development cost (i.e. utilities, city hook-up fees, etc.]
We feel a facility of this type would be a welcomed addition
to the community of Ashland.
Enclosed are letters of support from other communi'ty agenctes.
We ask for your support and endor,sement to apply for thes-e funds.

~uhjed: Disposition of Street Plugs or Reserve Strips
To remedy a situation where street plugs or reserve strips are
still in place across numerous City streets even after the street
has been extended through phase development of sub-divisions,
please consider the following suggestion:
Currently, Section 18.80.020 of the Ashland Municipal Code is as '
follows:
18.80.020 Design Standards
B. Streets.
3. Reserve Strips: Reserve strips or street plugs
controlling the access to streets will not be approved unless
necessary for the protection of the public welfare or of
substantial property rights and in those cases they may be
required. The control and disposal of the land composing such
strips or street plugs shall be placed within the jurisdiction of
the City under conditions approved by the Planning Commission.
Possible revision of Section -
3. Reserve Strips: Reserve strips or street plugs
shall be created to control access onto any street which
terminates upon any undeveloped land through which the street
might logically extend. In such cases, the street shall be
provided to within one foot of the boundary line of the tract with
the remaining one foot being granted in fee to the City as a
reserve strip.
Upon approved dedication of the extension of the
affected street, the one-foot reserve strip shall be dedicated to
the public use as a part of said street. This dedication will.be
automatic and without further action by the City. This action
shall also apply retroactively to all previously created reserve
strips where the streets have been extended and dedicated for
street purposes.
The situation of reserve strips across fully opened and traveled
streets has recently been a point of objection by the County
Surveyors Office. It would seem that the above revision would
provide an easy remedy. Please let me know your feelings on this.

Agreement for Widening Glenn Street
Glenn Street, between North Main and Orange Street, was
paved several years ago. The PUC has recently concluded that
the pavement at the railroad track should have been widened
to 36 feet rather than the existing 32 feet.
It has therefore been ordered that the widening be done
with the railroad rehabilitating the existing pavement at the
tracks and the City widening the pavement from 32 to 36 feet
at the tracks.
The railroad will do the actual work with the City
reimbursing it for its portion of the project.
In order to proceed, it will be necessary to pass a
resolution authorizing the Mayor and Recorder to sign the
agreement.
Would you please place this item on the next Council
agenda?

CITY OF ASHLAND SENIOR PROGRAM
Board Meeting
October 7, 1987
CALL TO ORDER
The meeting 'was called to order at 4:00 p.m. at Hunter Park
Center by Chairman Mavis Cloutier. Also attending were board
membe~s Bob Edwards, George Foster and Don Laws, Program Director
Barbara Dunlap and outreach worker, Pam Thornhill.
FINANCIAL REPORT
Dunlap distributed the 1986-87 fiscal year financial report which
showed expenditures of $66,245.47 against a budget of $76,986.
She said said she will have a draft of the 1988-89 proposed
budget for inspection at the November board meeting.
DIRECTORS REPORT
A copy of the report is attached as a part of these minutes.
Dunlap amplied the written report with the following
observations:
Flu Clinic
The flu clinic administered a record 562 shots. Donations of
$2,215 paid for the cost of the program.
Green Thumb Workers
Dunlap said she had conferred with recruiter Ellie Ross and hopes
to have a qualified worker on board by November 15.
AARP Handbook
Copies of the new AARP handbook for senior citizens were
distributed. Dunlap said they have been well received. Published
at a cost of $1.50 per copy, donations of $1 are being collected
to help defray the cost of future updates.
Oregon Transportation Conference
As a board member of the OTA, Dunlap will attend the conference
on October 30 at a cost of the pro-rated $50 fee.
Taxi Discount Program
Dunlap reported usage is now approaching the volume orginally
projected'. It is proposed to print brochures and posters this
quarter to better inform propsective clients. Dunlap said she
would like to increase the FTE work of Pam Thornhill by January
to serve the system properly. It was the consensus of the board
that it would be appropriate to make such a move. Dunlap sai~ she
-----;r---,--- ,,-
~

would like to build into the 1988-89 program a half-time person
to handle the taxi program' and in so doing request more than the
/ $16,000 currently allocated from cigarette tax moneys.
Considerable discussion followed on the preparation of discount
coupons each quarter. It was agreed that the coupons should be
redesigned to eliminate names of users and rely, instead, on
ticket numbers and color codes for different quarters.

CITY OF ASHLAND SENIOR PROGRAM
DIRECTOR'S REPORT
Barbara Dunlap
October 7, 1987
FLU CLINIC
On Wednesday, September 16, 1987, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m., influenza vaccine
(A-Taiwan A-Leningrad and B-Ann Arbor) was administered to 562 recipients.
Cost was $804.00 for vaccine. (Cotton and syringes were donated by Fred
Ashdown, sales representative for Park Davis.) Miscellaneous supplies
and fruit juice cost under $30.00. Donations received were $2,215.00.
This clinic has historically taken in more money from donations than it
has cost.
Vaccinations were administered by volunteer RN's supervised by Gerry White
Other volunteers assisted our staff in processing the clients' informed
consent forms and in taking donations. Dr. Sammons was again the physician
of record. The Ashland Hospital emergency team was on stand by. There
were no negative reactions reported.
A photographer came from the Tidings and a story and picture appeared in
the Tidings the following day.
GREEN THUMB WORKERS
We have had two Green Thumb trainees in the past year. This has been only
partially successful. While it has provided a worker to answer phones
and to assist with clerical work, training and supervision has consumed
more staff time than had been anticipated. I met with Ellie Ross, Green
Thumb recruiter. She will try to find a trainee whose skills better match
the needs of our office. We hope to have another trainee in place by
November 15 th.
AMP HANDBOOK
The Seniority Unlimited organization granted $1,000. to the local chapter
of the AARP for the production of a handbook for seniors. A committee,
chaired by Jeanne Monroe, worked many months compiling information which
is pertinent to Ashland residents 9ver age 55.
The Senior Program staff worked closely with the committee. Many hours
and revisions went into the production of this book. We are happy with
the results and are pleased to have had the opportunity to work on this
project.
SENIOR SHUITLE
The shuttle has received numerous dents and nicks over the past years. These
were repaired in August by Butler Ford. New hub caps were purchased and the
tires which were purchased in June were put on.
The transmission which was repaired in July, 1986, had to be completely
rebuilt this past week. Pete's Transmission did the work at a cost of
approximately $1,100. The work, both parts and labor, is warranted for
three years. I have contacted City Finance Director, Bob Nelson, and
explained this unexpected expense. It is possible that we will go over
budget before the end of the fiscal year on this line item and an amendment
to the budge t w';' be necessary.

RURAL TRANSPORTATION PROVIDERS NATIONAL CONFERENCE
Board President Mavis Cloutier and I attended this conference which was
held in Ashland in early September. It was well attended by providers
from all areas of the country.
Topics included funding, regulations and different methods of providing
special transportation. One entire afternoon was devoted to methods of
accident investigation and accident prevention. Slides of actual accidents
which the presenter had investigated were shown.
OGA CONFERENCE IN ROSEBURG
Although Pam Thornhill and I had planned to attend, the State Police could
not assure us that 1-5 would not be closed by smoke. As we would have
been on the highway very early in the morning and as the smoke was so
heavy, we decided not to attend the conference.
OREGON TRANSPORTATION CONFERENCE, October 28, 29, 30, in Springfield
As a member of the OTA Board I will need to attend Friday, 30th.
Registration fee will be pro-rated for the one-day period.
TAXI DISCOUNT PROGRAM
RVTD has notified funding recipients that a new Advisory Board will be
named November 12th. These members will be chosen from users and provider
of special transportation. They can have no interest as workers or volunteers,
including board members, of funded agencies.
Funding recipients will be reviewed by the end of 1987 and the decision as
to extension of present contracts to the end of FY 1988, June 30, 1987,
will be made at that time. Any unspent money will be required to be refunded
to RVTD at the end of that period.
The Senior Program is extending its taxi discount coverage to include those
persons outside the City limits of Ashland who are not covered by the
RVCOG contract with RVTD. At present we have issued tickets to two clients
who live just outside the City limits.
The discount program is growing at the rate we anticipated when we made
application for funding (see attached sheet). While we have set aside
$2,400. of STF funds for additional staff time, studies of time use show
that an additional .2 FTE is needed to administer the program. I have
spoken with RVTD worker, Margaret Lambert, and it is likely that a request
to use additional money for administration will not be received negatively.
At present we are following the procedure which was in place with the
City Taxi Discount Program. That is, we type the name, number, discount
amount and expiration date on each ticket. Tickets are recorded by usage.
The taxi company turns used tickets to the City Finance Department and
then the used tickets are returned to our office for recording.
------------rr~.-----'--

With the growth of the discount program, this has become overly time con-
suming. We are currently reviewing the procedure and will try to streamline
this without loss of accountability.
We also plan to print posters and are also considering producing brochures
which explain our taxi program, as well as, the other services offered
by the Senior Program. No price estimates have been obtained for these.

TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMISSION
October 28, 1987
The meeting was called to order at 4:03 P.M. in the
Council Chambers by Chairman Phil Arnold. Commis-
sioners in attendance were Walter Schraub,
Gary Mallicoat, Gary Cretan, Bev Lamb and
Bill Marschall.
The minutes of the September 23, 1987 meeting were
approved with one correction on page two, under
2190 Siskiyou, 6th line should read from Clay, not
to Clay.
Staff contacted Carol Templer and she had nothing
else to add to her letter. Lamb contacted both
drug stores who felt a handicap or limited parking
space would be nice. Anderson's already has 7
leased spaces in Elk's Lodge parking lot but
not convenient for handicapped. She asked if it
were necessary that the fire plug in the Elk's
Lodge building be marked which uses up one
parking space and Al said it was the law.
Marschall moved to table this item until further
notice and Cretan seconded. The vote was unanimous.
Al said there was no record of painting the yellow
curbs in front of the other mailboxes and therefore
it would have to be assumed that they are
unauthorized. Florence Hill showed up to explain
that her neighbors were not in favor of bunching
the boxes nor getting a security box. She pointed
out that her newspapers were now being stolen.
She said the Post Master General would be in town
the next day and she would contact him for further
suggestions. It was recommended that a yellow curb
be painted 20' from the corner on both sides so
that Mrs. Hill could move her mailbox within that
20' and hopefully there would be no parking there.
Janice Pinkul said she had filled here requirement
for parking spaces and even had extra for her
workers but still people park in the alley and
block those cars in. She said she has even been
threatened when she asked people to move their
cars. She is requesting a "no parking" sign in the
alley. Captain Barnard said that the ordinance
states that there is parking allowed in alleys but
is limited to 10 minutes. Ms. Pinkul said 10
minutes wouldn't be a problem but it is out of
control.

Lamb moved that Staff recommend to Council
placement of a "No Parking" sign in the a'lley.
Marschall seconded and the vote was unanimous. Ms.
Pinkul is to be notified when this item goes on the
Council agenda.
Al talked with property owner to clip corner.
Nedra Belloc of 68 Scenic said the City should try
to increase the visibility of that corner by
removing the shrubs and adding a convex mirror.
C.C. Brown said she has lived at 171 Church Street
for 14 years and 12 years ago sent a letter to the
City to paint white lines at the stop sign and the
response was that it was too expensive to maintain.
She has seen three cats killed on that intersection
and would like to see a 25 mph sign posted on
Church. She said she was all for the above
mentioned recommendations. Mark Brown at 171
Church said the corner should be widened for fire
engines, U-hauls, construction trucks, etc. He
added that the mirror would help drivers in all
directions. Heather Allen at 96 Scenic said she
traveled that corner nine times today and expressed
the dangers of it. Her dog was hit and she is
concerned for drivers as well as pedestrians.
Mallicoat suggested moving the stop sign up into
the intersection on Scenic and agreed removing the
brush would help that corner. Al mentioned that
the shrubs could be as high as 30" and still be
legal and stated that the accident problem is
unrecorded. Chairman Arnold was in agreement to
move the stop sign up on Scenic and paint stop
lines at the intersection to determine where to
stop, and to clear the brush on that corner. The
Commission further agreed to hold off on the convex
mirror until the outcome of these actions can be
determined.
Al stated that a traffic count had been taken at
Weller Lane and the results do not warrant a stop
sign~ Lamb said a yield sign might help. Cretan
felt there should be more speed enforcement on
Ashland Street and perhaps the City could put an
insert in the utility bill newsletter stating that
25 mph is the speed limit when unposted. The
Commission agreed to hold off on the stop sign and
Captain Bernard would look into the speeding
matter.

Dick Kopple, P.E. instructor at Ashland High School
said there were no signs on Mountain indicating
that was a school zone. Most kids parade' down the
street and stop traffic since there are no
sidewalks on the east side. Al said the dangers of
unmarked crosswalks is that kids will jump out
without looking assuming it is safe. It was
recommended that Staff draw up a map specifying
where to place the cross walk and signs indicating
a school zone.
The Commission discussed the long agendas as of
late and agreed that. it was probably because of the
missed meeting in August. If it continued, the
possibility of starting early will be discussed.
These items were postponed to the next meeting.
Lamb suggested that the College newspaper be
contacted and perhaps do an article on City Safety
Rules and Regulations. Barbian agreed to help and
it will be brought up at the next meeting.

City's bond attorney. After review by the
attorney, closure will be scheduled.
Bill Porter reported that a committee had been
formed consisting of himself, Roy Collier, Jerry
Scott, Virgil Nuenschwander and Al Alsing.
One inspection had been made and the following
items identified as needing attention or
investigation:
1. grass along runway
2. windsock at wind tee
3. posts and cable along newly paved
taxiway
The safety inspection book will be kept at the
airport.
This item was given to the Safety Committee.
A future grant was discussed. It was the
general consensus that the next grant
application should be for land purchase at the
far end of runway 30, land to the N.E., and
resurfacing of the taxiway. Staff was
asked to request authorization from the
Council to submit a pre-application.
The Commission discussed the area behind the
Administration Building in light of the
removal of the mobile home. It was suggested
that a pilot/classroom building might be
constructed with volunteer labor and con-
tributions. Staff offered to provide an area
map so that further study could be made.
It was decided to hold the next meeting at the
airport at 11:00 A.M. so that a general
inspection could be made by the Commission.

Minutes of the September 28, 1987 meeting were

The proposed revision of the Bike Ordinance
was discussed. It was suggested that "bell"
be changed to "audible device". Language
concerning maximum speed allowed on the
bikepath was discussed. It was suggested that
the proposed language should be the same as in
the DMV booklet. This item was carried
forward to the next m~eting.
Since Larry Browning was unable to attend the
meeting, this item was carried forward to the
next meeting.
Staff reported that a letter had been for-
warded to the Highway Division supporting
Jackson County's grant request for a bike path
along E. Main Street.
Staff reported that there are presently no
funds available for bicycle education and
suggested that a request be included in next
year's proposed budget. Chief of Police Vic
Lively had suggested that the bike education
funds should perhaps be in the Police budget
since the Police collect the bike license
revenues.
Wording was identified in the December 15,
1986 Bike Committee Minutes which will be used
for pedestrian information signs to be
utilized on the Boulevard bikepath. Signs
were suggested for placement every two blocks.
