Acklin moved to approve the minutes of the regular meeting and executive session of April 7, 1987; Reid seconded the motion which passed unanimously on voice vote. Mayor Medaris introduced Harry Skerry, Chairman of the Ashland Constitution Bicentennial Committee, and presented to him a proclamation designating May 1, 1987 as "Law Day U.S.A. in Ashland". Mr. Skerry then gave a short history of the U.S. Constitution and invited the Council to offer ideas for the celebration of same. Diana McLaughlin, Assistant to the Director of the Medford Goodwill, accepted the Mayor's proclamation for "Goodwill Industries Week" which will be May 3-9, 1987. Mrs. McLaughlin invited everyone to visit their workshop at 604 N. Fir Street in Medford. Mayor Medaris read a proclamation which designates May 1987 as "Youth Employment Month". The same was presented to Minnette Schmidt of the Job Council. Judy Howard of the Oregon Arts Council requested that this item be postponed. Rob Wintnrop of the Ballet also requested it be tabled until after the May 5, 1987 Council meeting so the State Ballet Board could discuss it at their meeting of May 5.

Commencement Committee requesting permission to close Winburn Way for commencement. ceremonies on June 6, 1987 from 7:00 A.M. to 12:00 Noon. Elerath moved to approve request; Bennett seconded, the motion passed unanimously on voice vote. This item was withdrawn by Ralph Wehinger. A memo from the Asst. City Engineer was read requesting authorization for the Mayor and City Recorder to sign a boundary line agreement with respect to City property in the vicinity of Crowson Reservoir. Public Works Director Alsing said the proposed boundary line was a reasonable split and both staff and the property owner were in favor of it. Laws moved to authorize signing of the agreement, Bennett seconded the motion which passed unanimously on voice vote. No comments from the audience. City Administrator Almquist read a letter from the Chamber of Commerce requesting that the Resolution extending Ordinance No. 2377, concerning parking fees and employee/employer parking restrictions be made into separate resolutions. On question from Reid as to the reasoning behind this, Regina Stepahin explained that the parking fee resolution would have to be extended periodically until the Water Street parking lot bond debt service had been paid. Separating the two would eliminate the need to go through the resolution process on the employee/employer parking ban issue at the same time. It was noted that Section 2 of the Resolution concerning the survey had been completed. Acklin moved to adopt the Resolution; Elerath seconded. All AYES on roll call vote. (Ref.

Reso. #87-11) A Resolution was read concerning prohibiting parking on the South side of Glenwood Drive from Beach Street Easterly. Acklin moved to adopt the Resolution, Arnold seconded, passed unanimously on roll call vote. (Ref. Reso. #87-12) A Resolution supporting the redesignation of S.O.S.C. to Southern Oregon State University was read, and the Mayor introduced Ben Tyran, Chairman of the Economic Development Commission, who explained the status of Senate Bill 736 in the present Legislative Session. Mr. Tyran expressed appreciation on behalf of Senator Lenn Hannon for letters of support and said the resolution would be very much appreciated. Elerath felt the important issue was to take "State" out of the name and put "University" in, and we should allow the State Board of Higher Education some freedom in selecting the actual name. Laws noted that Senate Bill 736 specifies the name and it may weaken our position if we don't stick with the name in that bill. Bennett said the name change had been a dream of Dr. Stephenson, Dr. Sauers and Dr. Siccuro, and she appreciated the work Ben Tyran is doing to reach this end. Bennett moved to adopt the Resolution, Arnold seconded the motion which passed unanimously on voice vote. (Ref. Reso. #87-13) A memo from the Police Chief to the Finance Director was read by City Administrator Almquist who said the Resolution was necessary to formalize the process.

A1mqui,t, City Admini't'~ Jf rom: ~ubjed: Proposed Electric Rate Increase In December of 1986 the Council received an estimate of electric revenues and expenditures for 1987-88, together with the most recent BPA forecast of wholesale power rates. You may recall that my estimate at that time was that overall retail rates would need to be increased by 8.8% with residential rates increased by 12.2% and commercial by 5.5%. This would have resulted in the average monthly bill for a residential customer being increased by about $5.69. When the proposed 1987-88 bUdget was submitted to the Council in February of this year, I estimated that BPA would eventually reduce its earlier 13% increase to about 9%, resulting in an overall increase in our rates of about 5.8%. BPA has now announced its final proposal at 9.5% which translates into a 5.9% overall increase in retail rates for Ashland's customers. Attached are the proposed rate schedules for all classes of customers, which can be summarized as follows: Customer Class Present Ashland Proposed Present Ashland PP&L Proposed(*) PP&L Residential 1000 KWH 46.58 49.20 (+5.6%) 54.13 53.03 Commercial 3000 KWH 175.35 190.35 (+8.5%) 209.39 205.30 Commercial 10,000 KWH 25 KWD 491.95 530.75 (+7.9%) 587.35 575.70 Croman Corp. 38,188 39,759 (+4.1%) 40;544 39,762 (*PP&L has proposed a 2% overall rate decrease which could be approved as early as May 1, 1987) The foregoing rates would leave most of Ashland's rates at 10% under those of PP&L, and if the P.U.C. grants Pacific the rate decrease it has proposed, the percentage of differential would be about 8%. Please v/ Honorable Mayor and City council April 29, 1987 Page Two remember however, that under the BPA exchange, Pacific will also have its exchange power costs increased by 9.5%, so I would expect them to request a rate increase this summer of about 6%, which will leave Ashland's rates . about 14% under those of Pacific Power. Also attached for your information is the annual comparison for all 51 cities over 5,000 population showing present utility costs and local taxes. Please note that even with the proposed increase we have dropped to 48th position from 47th in terms of being the least expensive. Finally, all of the other city utilities I have spoken with will likewise raise their retail rates this summer to respond to the BPA increase. RECOMMENDATION: In order to allow adequate time to revise our computer program to implement the new rates, action should be taken on the new rates at the May 5 Council meeting. The actual rates would be effective with meter readings taken on or after June 1, 1987. Therefore, it is recommended that the Council adopt the attached resolution to be effective June 1.

'ijf 0: Brian L. Almquist, City Administrator " Jf rom: {l Allen A. Alsing, Director, Public Works ~ubjett: Enforcement of Vision Clearance Ordinance You will recall that last year the City became involved in the enforcement of the vision clearance ordinance at 334 High Street in relation to a hedge belonging to Marge Sommerville. This was prompted, I believe, by a request to.the Council for vacation of the alley directly across High Street from Susan Lane. The outcome at that time was an order for Ms. Sommerville to trim her hedge to comply with the ordinance. She requested that the trimming be delayed until Fall so as not to kill the hedge and the requested was granted. Before Fall came it was discovered that the property had been sold so staff notified the new owner of the requirement for hedge trimming. You can see by the attached letters that the new owner intended to again request vacation of the alley and staff requested that the application to Council be made within 30 days. The new owner, Mr. Sposato, has now made his request for vacation of the alley. Attached are copies of recent correspondence with Mr. Sposato and excerpts of Council Minutes which note that many of the neighborhood residents opposed the vacation proposal. The final action of the Council at that time was to table indefinitely and a request that staff take action to improve visibility. . Robert Sposato 334 High Street Ashland, Oregon 97520 . Ci ty Counc i I C i t y of Ash 1 an d Apr i 1 14, 1987 Dear Counc i 1 , I am beginning the process of asking the city to vacate an "a"ll ey adjacent to my property on Hi gh Street, The purpose of this letter is to ask that the fee for such a process be waived in this case for reasons J will here explain: ~Iy neighbors (the Shea,.) and J, between whc,m the alley exists, are aware that the alley poses a great safety hazard to the many pedestrians who use it daily, The alley is steep in grade, runs at an acute angle to High Street and is topped by loose granite, Vision and braking conditions being poor, the heavy foot traffic by school children create a potential hazard of great consequence. Since few cars use the alleys closing the alley to vehicles i,: a. minimal inconvenience to drivlJi>s. The Sheas and J are not intend i ng to vacate the all ey in order to acquire more personal property, The purpose of the change is to create a safer publ ic access for the many who already use the alley (not unlike the Alice Peal walkway). Many of our neighbors on High Street share our concerns for the safety of pedestrians and encourage our action concerning the alley's vacation. It is for this community purpose that ~.e ask the counc i 1 toO l"aive the fees. understand the process J must follow to request the city'S blessing on this project and 1 intend to do so promptly, The first step is to clear the way financially for the pr"Dcess to take place. Since this matter is one of pub1 ic sa,fety and nDt .of individual property, J hope the council sees fit to keep this issue exclusively within the pub lie doma in, Sincerely yours, M~ Robert Sposato .__.:..._:.-.=---- , .

AT SUSAN LN. ~ :ISTORIC CO~IISSION REPORT 7th Street Vacation) XEMPLOY~~NT AGREEMENT aSS-TRAINING STORIC COMMISSION REPORT TAX FREEZE A letter from Sandra Shea, 342 High Street, was read requesting vacation of an unimproved alley East of High Street at Susan Lane because the alley used by children walking to Briscoe School etc. creates a danger to them by vehicular traffic using the alley as a short-cut to N. Main Street. Shea suggested closing " the alley rather than vacating it and said she could not afford I the $250 vacation fee and the proposal is not for her own benefit. I The City Attorney said that the alley would have to be vacated and if the City acts on its own motion, the property owners abut- ! , ting the alley would have to be agreeable. Alsing wondered if the alley could be closed and the right-of-way reserved for future street plans. Arnold said the vacation proceeding should be implemented with notification to abutting property owners. Acklin suggested owners be contacted by mail to see if they are interested in the proposal. Mayor Medaris and Council agreed to postpone until Staff receives input from neighborhood. A memo was read from the Historic Commission relative to street vacation (portion of 7th St.) in the Railroad District and sug- gesting that a policy should be implemented which would create a narrow right-of-way to a uniform width to be no less than 47 feet. Also recommended Was that vacation should be addressed on a street by street basis rather than by"individual parcel. No action necessary. Council will wait for policy before proceeding on such requests. r Acklin moved to instruct staff to remove preemployment agree- ments signed by Fire/~\!~sb\lh/''ie from the file. Bennett seconded the motion which passed 'unanimouSly on voice vote. A letter from George Kramer, Chairman of the Historic Commiss- I ion was read relative to possible implications to the City because of requests for tax freezes on properties designated b, <h, "," ',"'0'" '"""M"oo om" " ""<h'" r" <h, i spec1al assessment status.

Almquist said that those in opposition were very "strong in their objection and recommended that Council not proceed with the proposal but emphasized the need to either trim or remove abutting hedges for vision clearance. Laws moved that the proposal be tabled indefinitely and instructed staff to take action to improve visibility; Arnold seconded the mtoion which passed unanimously on voice vote. Energy Conservation Director Wonderscheid reviewed the proposal outlined in his memo to establish a criteria whereby new homes using electric utilities as their major source of heating would be required by ordinance to use the Model Conservation Standards to be qualified for a hookup to the City's electric utilities. Wanderscheid recommended that a public hearing be held to allow input by builders, BPA and other interested parties and possibly get an Attorney General's Opinion on the legality of the pre- posal. Wanderscheid said there is strong support in town and reviewed the statistics gathered from a survey taken in the City which showed 95% agreeing with need for energy efficient homes, etc. Wanderscheid said he really doesn't anticipate any formid- able opposition because of the fact that most homes are already being built with energy efficient options. Elerath noted that the Com~rehensive Plan supported the use of natural gas for heating and now electric is being pushed. Wanderscheid said the Comprehensive Plan was drawn up during the 'energy crunch in 1980 and since there is now a glut.of electric energy, the Comp Plan will be modified to reflect that situation when it is given its five year review. Wanderscheid noted that State Rep. Nancy Peterson was present and would represent the City in securing an Attorney General's opinion through the legislative process. The costs of anticipated litigation were discussed and Wanderscheic reported that B.P.A. would be willing to pick up some costs. Acklin favored requesting the A.G.'s opinion and Laws disagreed saying that if the opinion turn out to be negative it would have a negative reaction on the effort and it wouldn't be accepted in the event of a court procedure anyhow. E1erath moved to table and the motion died for lack of a second. Laws moved to hold a public hearing and further pursue the question of early adopt- ion of the code as presented ana- Ben~ett:seconded the motion. On roll call vote Bennett, Acklin, Laws and Arnold voted in favor. Elerath opposed. Arnold moved to get the Attorney General's opinion and solicit Peterson's assistance; Bennett seconded the motion which passed with Elerath, Bennett, Acklin and Arnold voting YES and Laws opposing on roll call vote. AI Willstatter"noted there was no call for a second on the motion to table and Laws noted there was time for a second and the motion died for lack of same.

Physiographic conditions can be considered to include, but are not limited to: slope of the land, natural drainage ways, wetlands, soil characteristics, potential landslide areas, and natural and wildlife habitats. 18.62.020 Regulations. The type of regulation applicable to the land depends upon the classification in which the land is placed, as provided in Section l8.62.050. If those regulations conflict with other regulations of the City of Ashland's Municipal Code, the more stringent of the two regulations shall govern. 18.62.030 Definitions. The following terms are hereby defined as they apply to this Chapter: A. Architect - An architect licensed by the State of Oregon. B.

Non-cohesive Soils - Residual or transported soils containing no or very little clay, usually from crystalline granitic parent rock. Non-cohesive soils have a Plasticity Index of less than 10, based on laboratory testing by AASHTO, or a published scientific analysis of a particular soil type. I. Riparian - That area associated with a natural water course including its wildlife and vegetation. J. Wildfire - Fire caused by combustion of native vegetation, commonly referred to as forest fire or brush fire. iO.62.040 Approval and Permit Required. A. A Type I Physical Constraints Review Permit is required for any development, as defined in 18.62.030 (C), in areas identified as Riparian land, Riparian Preserve, Erosive and Slope Failure land, or Severe Constraint land. B. If a development is part of a Site Review, Performance Standards Development, Conditional Use Permit, Subdivision, Partition, or other Planning Action, then the Review shall be conducted simultaneously with the Planning Action and no additional fee shall be charged. C. If a development is exclusive of any other Planning Action, as noted in Subsection B, then the Physical Constraints Review shall be processed as a Type I Hearing and the permit fee shall be $25. Adopted by the Planning Commission 11-12-86 - 3 - D. Plans Required. The following plans shall be required for any development requiring a physical Constraints Review: 1.

Additional plans and studies as required in Sections 18.62.070, l8.62.080, 18.62.090, 18.62.l00 of this Chapter. E. Criteria for Approval. A Physical Constraints Review Permit shall be issued by the Hearings Officer when the Applicant demonstrates the following: l. That the development will not cause damage or hazard to persons or property upon or adjacent to the area of devel- opment. , Adopted by the Planning Commission ll-12-86 - 4 - 2. That the applicant has considered the potential hazards that the development may create and implemented reasonable measures to mitigate the potential hazards caused by the development. 3. That the applicant has taken all reasonable steps to reduce the adverse impact on the environment. Irreversible actions shall be considered more seriously than reversible actions. The Staff Advisor or Planning Commission shall consider the existing development of the surrounding area, and the maximum permitted development permitted by the Land Use Ordinance. 4. That the development is in compliance with the requirements of this chapter and all other applicable City Ordinances and Codes. F. The Staff Advisor or Planning Commission has the power to amend plans to include any or all of the following conditions if it is deemed necessary to mitigate any potential negative impact caused by the development: l. Require the retention of trees, rocks, ponds, water courses and other natural features. 2. Require plan revision or modification to mitigate possible negative or irreversible effect upon the topography or natural features that the proposed development may cause. G. The Staff Advisor or Planning Commission may deny the Physical and Environmental Constraints Review Permit if, in its opinion: l. The proposed development will have a detrimental effect on the lands regulated and protected by this Chapter, or if inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. 2. Where it appears that the proposal is part of a more extensive development that would require a master site plan, or other Planning Action. In this case, approval is to be postponed until a complete planning application has been processed. 18.53.050 Land Claosifications. The following factors shall be used to determine the classifications of various lands and their constraints to building and development on them: A. Riparian Lands - Lands with potential stream flow constraints. The following lands are classified as Riparian Lands: l. All lands within the recorded 100-year flood plain.

Have structural components capable of resisting hydrostatic and hydro-dynamic loads and the effects of buoyancy. 3. Be designed by an engineer or architect to meet the stan- dards of this subsection. 4. Keep to a minimum the extent and exposure of disturbed areas during development. C. Where information regarding the lOO-year flood plain is not available from the National Flood Insurance Study, then the following certification is required: 1. A declaration by an engineer that the proposed building will be at least one and ,one-half feet above the calculated lOO-year flood elevation. The lOO-year flood elevation shall be determined by computing the runoff, using standard engineering techniques, of a lOO-year design storm. 2. The above declaration is not required for structures whose lowest habitable floor is at least lO feet higher than the elevation of the creek bed on the sections of Ashland Creek not covered by the National Flood Insurance Study, and 5 feet above the creek bed for any other creek, measured at a location perpendicular to the location of the proposed Adopted by the Planning Commission ll-l2-86 - 7 - structure.

Nelson, Director of finance j&uhject: MONTHLY FINANCIAL COMHENTARY--MARCH 31, 1987 Electric Utility There were no major changes in Electric Utility financial trends during March, and we still expect the July 1 fund balance to be close to the $1,047,000 budgeted. Water Quality It is a relief to know that the sluicing program is behind us, and the modifications to Hosler Dam are almost complete. The effects of these activities on the Water Quality operating budget have been accommodated, and we still believe the budgeted July 1 fund balance of $650,000 is atainable. General Fund The most difficult General Fund problem during the current fiscal year is in Fire, Police, and Public Safety-General, where we face the "attrition and delayed rehire" credits. Current trends indicate these savings will be achieved, but it has not been easy for the departments, and it has contrib- uted toward the 1987-88 budgeting problem. We remain confident that the budgeted July 1 fund balance of $214,000 is a reasonable expectation. Hospi ta 1 Fund In March, the Hospital returned to profitability, and should achieve or exceed its budgeted July 1 fund balance estimate of $125,000. Central Services In total, Central Services Fund should have no trouble reaching the budgeted July 1 fund balance of $225,000. Street Fund The Street Fund is gradually galnlng financial strength, because much of that fund's revenue is received late in the fiscal year. It should be possible to begin the annual street resurfacing and/or chip sealing program during June, if weather permits. RDN:paw cc: Hon.

If you agree, would you please forward to the Council at your earliest convenience? ijf 0: ~tmnrandum April 21, 1987 Al Alsing Jff ro~: Jim Olson ~ Jv j&uhject: Improvement of "A" Street between 7th & 8th Streets "A" Street, between 6th and 7th Streets, was approved for paving by the Council on August 21, 1986 under Ordinance No. 2.398. since that time we have been attempting to extend the improvements through to 8th Street. Petitions were mailed to all property owners in February of this year and to date all have been returned except one. The attached sheet shows the results of the petition signatures. In addition to the petitions, two pre-paving agreements have been acquired. Although only 38.25% have been shown to be in favor, I feel that the Council would perhaps consider this section for improvement to complete the last of the unpaved streets in the Railroad District. As with the previously approved section, the Southern Pacific Railroad holds a 54.1% majority of the property frontage. It is impossible to ever gain a majority in favor vote without the railroad's vote and, of course, their vote is negative. In the unlikely proposition that both the railroad and the non-responding owner were to file a remonstrance, their percentage would only total 61.75%. Attached are the standard maps, data sheets, ownership lists, petitions and agreements pertaining to the proposed L.I.D. Due to the lateness of the season, we hope that this can be presented to the Council as quickly as possible.

Alsing j&uhject: Recommendation from the Traffic Safety Commission The Traffic Safety Commission at its meeting of April 22, 1987. recommended the following to the City Council: 1. That stop signs be placed on Morton Street at the intersection of Forest Street. While this intersection does not meet the standard warrants for stop sign installation, the Commission feels that signs should be installed because of the unusual configuration of the intersection including extreme steepness and pavement profile of Morton Street which have reportedly caused vehicles to become airborne and uncontrollable as they pass through the intersection. This item was brought to the attention of the Commission by a number of residents in the immediate area. 2. That parking be prohibited on the north side of Sheridan Street between N. Main and Grover Streets. This item was brought to the TSC by Fire Chief King because the narrowness of the street posed a safety problem for emergency vehicle response. The residents were polled as to which side to post and the majority requested the north side. Would you please pass these recommendations on to the Council at your earliest convenience. - .

Commissioners in attendance were Walter Schraub, Phil Gates, Gary Mallicoat and Bill Marschall. The minutes of the March 1987 meeting were .approved as written. The removal of parking on the east side was discussed. Staff reported that the Planning Department confirmed that the 52 unit proposed development was providing five parking spaces over the required 85.. Alsing further mentioned that when ASH was built (1970-72), the parking requirement was 1 parking space per unit. Today, it is 1 3/4 parking spaces per 2 bedroom unit and 2 parking spaces per 3 bedroom unit. . DON GRAVEN, Manager of ASH, said they were developing a new parking lot on the south side of Siskiyou, in excess of 20 spaces which should be completed by the end of the week. Graven said he could handle a time zone situation just fine. After further dis- cussion, Marschall moved to table the issue pending development of the new complex and Gates seconded. The vote was 2-2 and Cretan broke the tie to table the issue suggesting that it be readdressed if the problem continues. Alsing referred to the map included in the addendum to the packet which signified which property owners preferred the north side to be designated "No Parking". After a brief discussion, the Commission voted unanimously to recommend to Council that the North side of Sheridan Street be designated, "No Parking" from North Main to Grover Street. .-"., . ....."';.,...: . -~~:-'::'C:-"-'.' .~, "" ._.....~._-_.._.~.-. .'-.".'

GLENWOOD " . MORTON- & FOREST \ \:-' STU WATSON,' 128 S. Pioneer, spoke of the hazards on this street with people turning around once they hit the dirt road. LEAH IRELAND, 130 S. Pioneer, reiterated the dilemma and passed around a map of where she would like signs .and what they should say. Marschall said they didn't want to post a sign that would require enforcement. Alsing asked what would discourage people from driving on that road. After fu~ther discussion, Gates moved to accept Ms. Ireland's recommendation to post a sign at the beginning of the intersection of S. Pioneer and 'Hargadine stating "Dirt Road Ahead" and another sign where the dirt road starts saying "Thru Road". Mallicoat seconded and the vote was 4-1 with Marschall opposing. Alsing stated that Council took the Commission's recommendation to go ahead and post restricted parking on the south side of Glenwood between Beach Street and where Glenwood turns north. Alsing reviewed the Minutes from the May 1985 meeting on this issue. The following people spoke at the Public Hearing stressing the absolute need for a stop sign at that intersection: Michael Crowley, 566 Morton Alan Armstrong, 720 Forest Vicki Sturtevant, 720 Forest Rodney Badger, 610 Ashland Judd Hotile, 575 Liberty Bill Anderson, address unknown They all agreed .that the intersection was dangerous to children playing, that it had become a high school sport to speed through it, and that they were open to other ideas for slowing down. Cretan reviewed the criteria for Stop Signs. One of the Commission's concerns was trying to stop while going down that steep hill on a winter day when there was ice on the road. Neighbors claimed there was an alternative route to take on those few days during the year and the City should be more concerned about the majority of the year when there isn't any ice. Alsing reminded the Commission to consider the future development of that subdivision which will enhance the problem. The commission discussed the problem in detail and compared it to similar streets in the City. Marschall then moved to recommend to Council that a stop sign be placed on Morton at Forest for both directions or at least one northbound and that staff arrange for warning signs saying "Steep Grade - Use Low Gear" and "Stop Ahead". Gates seconded the motion and the vote was unanimous. ...... .," ~. .,.. . ... .... .~:.>r.. .'!..~,,:':.:.J'. ". ""~~: -'.;.:: :.~. ... . ~ .; d. P" _.
