Smith moved to approve minutes of the regular meeting and executive sess- ion of September 17, 1985; Bennett seconded the motion which passed unanimously on voice voteD Gustavo Lopez-Laing reported for the City of Guanajuato expressing it's appreciation for the particupation of delegates Stacy Heard who partici- pated in their pageant and Don Smu11in, member of the Sister City Committee, Lopez said that the City of Guanajuato was untouched by the recent earth- quake which devastated Mexico City, Judy_Compton and MeLedith Reynolds, both of whom have graduated from the University of Guanajuato, said they have been 'upset since learning of the Mexico City disaster and asked Council support of an effort to assist victims through donations which would be given in the name of City of Ashland Good Samaritan Fund through the Red Cross channels. Compton said that donors could designate one of three categories 1) food, 2) shelter or 3) medical needs and donations would be tax deductible. Smith moved to place on agenda; Reid seconded the motion which passed unanimously on voice vote. Compton challenged the citizens of Ashland, students, visitors etc., to give to the people of Mexico during this time. Laws moved to authorize the City to act as reciepient of funds to the City of Ashland Good Samaritan Fund and direct staff to decide on any legal aspects of so doing; Acklin seconded the motion which passed unanimously on voice vote. Compton and Reynolds were thanked for their concern. Planning Director Fregonese reviewed the history of the downtown parking problem along with the efforts of the many Parking Committees and said that the demand was for 124 additional spaces and that the need is becoming more critical. Fregonese reported on the results of an extensive study by the Downtown Parking Facility Committee chaired by Councilor Laws and the survey conducted by Geography students working with the Planning staff, which used a computerized analyses of the various areas. Fregonese noted that it is imperative that downtown employees and employers be'urged or made to use parking spaces other than those in the core downtown business district for all-day par~ing during the summer months to make room for cus- tomers, tourists etc. who come and go. Fregonese said that parking spaces freed by employees and employers would amount no between 120 and 180 spaces. The proposed improvement of the Water Street 16ts at a cost of approximately $35,000 would create an additional 20 spaces add the improvements could be financed through Bancrofting. Parking fines add surcharges added to bus- , iness licenses for,emp10yees at a rate of $5.00 per employee, to include the City, Shakespeare and non-profit institution eclp10yees would generate between $3,000-4,500, per year. Fregonese said,lthe proposal also recommends increasing parking fines by $1.00, which would generate between $5,000 and 6,000 per year. Fregonese said the total revenues raised by those outlined should generate an excess of costs for parking improvement and any surplus would go into the Downtown Parking Improvement Fund for use to improve the 000.0,. continued 10/1/85 P. 1 .gular Meeting .....snl.ana l,~LY Lo(J~a(;;...L. .J..U/.J../ U..J L. ~ . PUBLIC HEARING cont. parking situation when further improvementS are needed. Fregonese showed several exhibits covering questionnaire results relative to the parking demand, etc. City Administrator Almquist requested that letters received by Council be made part of the record and reviewed the proposed ordinance. A new section was added to provide for loading, unloading and delivery the case of Real Estate offices. Laws proposed that an optional section be added to the ordinance which would delete the need for the license numbers and addresses of employees and employers but would simply call for names of employees. Almquist reviewed the violation penalties which call for a written warning for the first violation. The Mayor opened the public hearing. Mavis Cloutier, member of the Cham- ber of Commerce Board of Directors said ~he is not speak~ng in support of the ordinance as such, but would like to see of the of positive points implemented. Cloutier encouraged cooperation on the concept. John Shannon 345 Siskiyou, said that if the spaces could be made available as outlined, people could use stickers to park and the problem would be solved. Tim Alford, representing Rogue Federal Credit Union, said they were never contacted during the study and asked that the time limits for parking remain the same on Third' Street and Lithia Way. Alford opposed the plan as presented and recommended further study for the total effect of the plan. Ron Roth, owner of Geppetto's said he has forty employees and only fifteen have vehicles and that he supports part of the ordinance but is opposed to registration etc. Roth said parking restrictions shouldn't be changed on Lithia Way and suggested that parking fines be substantially increased. Roth recommended use of the property formerly owned by the Bagley Canning Co., and suggested the City and Shakespeare work together to provide downtown parking. Michael Donovan, owner of Chateaulin Restaurant said he has approximately 30 employees during the summer and admitted the Parking Committee had a difficult task, but he feels a parking structure would be the answer. Donovan ~aid he doesn't feel employees will want to registere Don Evans, owner of Don!s Barber Shop expressed changing of the time for parking on Lithia Way. employees park several blocks away to make room Council to keep the two hour parking. Stu Watson, 128 Pioneer Street, opposed the registration saying it dis- criminates against the employees and would shift parking to the sing1e- family residential areas, concern with proposed Evans said he and his for customers and urged A1 Wi11statter, 128 Central, said he would take a positive approach and eliminate the crosses painted in the front and rear of the parking spaces and that many spaces could be picked up. Don Rist, 310 Bridge, encouraged Council to use the proceeds from the sale of the warehouse property on "A" Street to purchase property for parking purposes. 10/1/85 p. 2 egu1ar Meeting . Ashland City counC1i LV/L/~~. r. ~ PUBLIC HEARING cont. DOWNTOWN PARKING Joel Gonzales, 355 Tudor, recommended increasing the parking fees and also raise the fines for second and third time offenders. Gonzales said he is opposed to registrabion and would like to see Shakespeare share in the costs involved. Gonzales suggested the shuttle bus being used by the Seniors be used to transport employees to the parking lots before and after work. Mary Lou Gross asked if City employees would be treated the same as other downtown employees and if authorized spaces would continue in use along ,the side of City Hall. Laws said those parking spaces would be retained and City employees are included in the proposal. Gross spoke in opposition to the registration of employees and vehic~eso The publiC hearing was closed. Reid said that tourists are valued customers downtown but the employees are too. E1erath said that by repainting the spaces some could be added and disagreed with the registration of employee's vehicles. Acklin said she has worked on previous parking committees and the City has been involved because the need was brought to it's attention by the Chamber of Commerce, Shakespearean Festival and the business people. Acklin said the City employs about thirty people downtown and the City is being asked to solve the whole problem. She stated the only quick and inexpensive solution would be for employers to ask their employees not to park in time limit zones downtown. Acklin added that it shouldn't be any more offensive to register a vehicle for parking purposes than to register with DMV or register to vote. Acklin said without the $5.00 fee, the City won't have money to improve the Water Street parking lot and the Municipal Judge doesn't want to raise the park- ing fees because of the outcry by tourists who write volumes of letters threatening they won't come back to Ashland, etc. Bennett said she is sympathetic with comments heard but can't understand why no one wants to give the proposal a chance, and if it doesn't work then it could be abandoned after a year's trial. Laws equated the parking problem with the sign ord- inance in that it was resented at it's onset, and after being implemented brought a dramatic change in aesthetics in the downtown area. Laws com- mented on the allegation that registration would make second~c1ass citizens of employees saying they are already registered with the State and Federal government and noted that 95% would probably obey the ordinance. Smith reviewed the enforcement proposed and recommended that the two hour parking on Lithia:Way between E. Main and Third Streets remain as is and that first time parking ticket be increased to $5.000 The City Attorney noted that the Judge 'could still use his discretion on the fee. Reid moved to accept the $5.00, fee on employees; improvement of Water Street parking lot and leave parking on Lithia Way to four hours,and increase first and second time parking violations; E1erath seconded the motion. On roll call vote, E1erath and Reid voted in favor and Bennett, Acklin, Laws and Smith opposed the motion which failed. Smith moved to pass ordinance to second reading with amendment deleting license numbers and addresses; Laws seconded the motion which passed'with Bennett, Acklin, Laws and Smith voting in favor; E1erath and Reid opposed. 10/1/8~ p. 3 }:;U..LQ.L.

DEAN'S RIDEABOUT Liquor License Request-Toonerville Be11view School Stop Light Request A letter from Dean Spencer outlining his proposal to operate'" a guided tour business in Ashland was read and Spencer was present to review his plan. Spencer said he would ideally have four passengers for tours and he would use his Volvo stationwagon for this 1~ or 2 hour tour. Spencer said he has a chauffeur's license and liability insurancei',to cover the business. Spencer said he would not use loud speakers or invade anyone's privacy along the way and the passengers would be returned to the point of origin. On question of Councilor Smith on planned route, Spencer said he would go from Oak to "A" Street, "A" to 8th Street, 8th to liB" Street - to 6th and on "e" down to Morton, Morton to Eo Main etcCl Spencer said he would visit the areas to show highlights, view etc. and eventually return to the point of origin. Councilor E1erahh said he usually hires cabs to take him on tours of a city and he likes the idea but doesn't want competition with the franchise holder who has heavy expenses to provide the City with services outlined in the franchise. City Attorney Salter said that the proposal could in fact be competition but from reading the ordinance Salter said that with the tour the passenger does not control the route where in the case of a cab they would. Salter said the Councilsti11 has the option of saying yes or no. Bennett said she would like to see a map designating the route. Laws said he approves of the concept but requested that Spencer comeback with route so Council can address the request. 'Reid asked Spencer if he has done this beflore and Spencer saidfhe had with church groups. Dennis Perkins read a letter giving 'status IR1s"cabbusiness and citing business climate necessitating longer shifts and promotion of tours to make up for declining calls for cabs, Along with this fact Perkins cited other conveyances and modes of travel as having cut into his business to an alarming degree. Perkins asked that' his three page letter be made part of the record (dated: 10/1/85). Council agreed it would need to see Spencer's route before discussing further. The executive secretary of the Chamber of Commerce noted that she has had inquiries about availability of this type of tour, of , Application requesting c~ange of ownership/liquor license for Toonervi11e Deli Depot and recommendation by Police Department for approval was consid- ered by Council and,Laws moved for approval; Acklin seconded the motion which passed unanimously.on voice vote. Eric Jorgenson, principal of Be11eview School, expressed concern for the safety of the students because of inadequate signals at the dangerous intersection on the corner of Siskiyou Blvd. & Tolman Creek Road. Jorgen- son said that traffic to and from 1-5 creates a speeding hazard and the yellow blinking light which is too high to be easily seen is ineffective. Jorgenson said the last traffic count was taken in 1985 and hopes to get a more current count to justify the need for a traffic light approval by the State Highway Department, Jorgenson asked the City for it's expertise and support in requesting a four-way'light to control the traffic. Dir- ector of Public Works A1sing said he checked with the State Highway Depart- ment and ,learned that the project is on their six-year plan for 1989 but at this moment it does not qualify by their warrant system. A1sing said they did offer to do a study to check on requirements for approval and it should be ready in 'about six weeks at which time it could be studied. ooooo..continued 10/1/85 P. 4 2gular Meeting Be11view Traffic Signal Hospital Bd.

Smith asked the cooperation of the City so the request could go through the right channels. A1sing suggested that Traffic Safety Commission might be of assistance by taking a look at it and report to Council. Director of Public Safety Lively said there is a speeding problem there and will try to have a car in that area for careful patrolling.

Franklin Ci ty Recorder Lo Gordon Medaris Mayor 10/1/85 P. 6 ~emorandum October 11, 1985 mo: Honorable Mayor & City Council /;2" Brian L. Almquist, City Administrat~r /~/' I i " ~ rom: ~ubjed: Letter from Howard Miller The attached request for sewer service outside the city limits does not meet the requirements of the ordinance relative to outside-city , connections. It involves the construction of a new sewer main for a new dwelling, and contrary to a statement in the letter, does not meet the intent of our ordinance. -' The ordinance was designed specifically to prevent the urbaniza- tion 0 f lands outside the city limits, and secondly to encourage the annexation of land before services are extended. The ordinance was changed about two years ago to allow new dwellings to be connected to existing sewer mains, if that property owner agreed to sign a consent to annexation. In Mr. Miller's particular case, there are existing dwellings in the area with septic tank problems similar to the Fordyce Street area. We also have certain access problems on Normal Avenue which should be addressed, as well a's, the need for easements to connect this area with the Bear Creek interceptor. RECOMMENDATIO~: It is my recommendation that the Council authorize the Staff to call a meeting of all property owners in the area bounded by the SPRR, E. Main Street, the Junior High and the Creek midway to Clay Street to determine their interest in: a) forming an Assessment District to construct the required sewer main; b) annexation; and c) dedicating the necessary right-of-way for the extension of Normal Avenu~ as shown on the Comprehensive Plan. I do not believe an individual request such as this should be acted upon without an areawide solution such as was reached with the Fordyce Street area. To do so would make it difficult, if not impossible, to solve the access problems or to encourage the annexation of the area with rational boundaries. Bt-ian Alrnqui:,:t., Citld Administ.rat.or A:;:h I arllj Citq Ha 1I A ,,:r', I ;'irllj, CWeqon Dear ~;i r: Hlis let.ter is a request to allow my property, located on Normal Avenue, t.o tie pt'ovided 'Nith city sewer service, The parcel under rjj:,:cu:,::,:ion is t.a:, lot. 39 1 E 10 D lot number 230, After lengthy discussions with the city staff, it appears that although my property does not meet the t.ecrlnicalities of the ordinance for extending sewer service ouhirje t.he city limits, it certainly meets the intent of that measure, As you know, I have had prepared complete engineering plons for e:d.ending an eight-inch sewer line from the tnJnk line which runs along Bear Creek to ml~ property, This is one of the lines desigmlted on the Capital Improvernent pr-ogram and would be a valuable addition to the city '3eWet- :,:'~,,:tem, I ther-ef ore ask that thi s request be added to the agenda of tJle ne:;t Citq Council meetinq so a decision can be mode on this proposal. '- ". T,,"tO othet- benefits would be reeilized with this sewer line. It would :,:et-ve a porti on of the I and i nc I uded in tr,e urban growtt1 boundry, Many of t.he :,:eptic :,:yst.ems now located in nle area are failing, representing a pot.entially ,=:er-ious healtt1 hazard to residents, I am willing to undertake this project at. rny own e:,pense, the city would incur no costs to gain this valuable ,,:ewet- e:;tension, I would ask, however, as with other lines which ha'....e treen con:,:tnJCterj at an individual's e:,pense, a method be established 'Nhet-etry Gnyone hooking on to or extending this line to serve his needs pay trGCk a cwoportionate share of the costs I will incur building this line, "lOtH' pnxnpt. at.tention to U',is matter is greatly appreciated. ~; i ncere I'd, 7L,cI~~ HowGrd E, r'1i 1I er 9/24/8> -.------ ...

From that point, my route would follow Winburn Way through Lithia park, returning via South pioneer St., through the Shakespearean Festival Center, down through the Railroad District, up through the SOSC campus area, to the residential area above, out to Tolman Creek Rd., down to Scenic Hills Memorial Park, and returning via East Main St. past the Civic Center, up to Scenic Dr. and back to the point of origin as listed in detail on the accompanying sheet and delineated on the attached map. I ' My advertising plan is 1) To place a sign on the roof of my vehicle one foot high and five feet long which will say, "DEAN'S RIDEABOUT, A QUIET LOOK AT CAMELOT". 2) To distribute 4" X 9" cards with photographs and descriptive writing of the tour. These would be placed with the Chamber of Commerce, hotels, motels, and tour agents. 3) To use conventional business cards. If my business proposal is approved, I expect to operate 4 days a week, Tuesday through Friday from 1e:eeAM TO 4:eePM. I plan to charge $5.ee per hour per person. I would like to be allowed to operate beginning November 1, 1985. I know the tourist season will be over, but I'd like a few weeks of actual experience before closing for the winter.

I propose to transport the public in my automobile from an established point of origin, over a fixed route, and back to the same point of origin. I have a flawless driving record with a chauffeyr's license and adequate liability insurance. Also, I have a genuine appreciation for the.area and a knowledge of its' history and highlights that I would like to share with Ashland visitors. A service which offers the public a personalized and informative view of Ashland at a leisurely pace is not currently available. Although there is a satisfactory taxi service available, several local business people have stated the need for a specialized tour service of the type I propose. There is no conflict with existing transportation services since my passengers are always returned to their point of origin. Many months of thought and study have gone into the design of this service. It is my goal to offer the public a quality experience that is unique, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. Ashland has a reputation for providing an outstanding experience for its' visitors and your favorable consideration of my proposal would further this community quality. Sincerely, IJ~ ~;~~~ Dean Spencer TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council DATE: October 1, 1985 FROM: Ronald L. Salter City Attorney SUBJECT: Sidewalk Repairs Our File A-l Ladies and Gentlemen: The staff and I reviewed the City laws relative to the repair of sidewalks, and the enforcement of those pro- visions. Upon review, we find that the penalty for failing to properly keep your sidewalk in repair is designated a misdemeanor, and:~t is recommended that this be changed to an infraction. As it presently stands, a person who is charged with failing to keep his sidewalks in good repair is subject to 60 days in jail, is entitled to a jury trial, and a Court- appointed attorney at City expense. I suspect that it has been many, many years since we have put anyone ,in jail for such a misdeed, and in fact most likely we never have put anyone in jail. It seems much more consistent to make it an infraction where the maximum penalty is a fine, and it is handled by the Court without a jury, and without the expense of a Court-appointed attorney. Accordingly, the foregoing recommendation, which is to direct the staff to bring back an ordinance changing the penalty from a misdemeanor to an infraction. Perhaps there are other departments or branches of the City that would benefit from a meeting to consider the laws and rules relative to its functions, and to that end, I am sending a memo to the Department Heads to suggest such meetings if they believe it would be beneficial. This may well result in further'reports to you requesting changes in our laws. Respectfully submitted, ~ ~-" .. , , & ' \ ' ~ ~ONAL~- ~ SAL )@-- City Attorney RLS/pc RONALD L.

SIGNED and APPROVED this L. Gordon Medaris Mayor , mo: ~ rom: ~ubjed: ~emorandum August 30, 1985 Honorable Mayor and City Council John l"regonese PERMISSION FOR THE ASHLAND COMMUNITY CENTER TO APPLY FOR A FACILITIES GRANT FROM THE OREGON ARTS COMMISSION. The Ashland Community Center would like permission from the City Council to apply to the Oregon Arts Commission for a facilities grant to improve the performance situation in the main hall. Attached is our letter of-intent to the Oregon Arts Commission which describes our grant proposal. Please refer to the letter for more complete details. The major obstacles to performances in the Community Center are: the poor acoustics, lack of stage area, and inadequate electrical wiring for sound and lighting equipment. We contracted four local professionals to complete specifications on the necessary improvements in the main hall to correct these problems. The proposed solutions and names of profess- ionals are listed below: 1) To correct the acoustics we need to purchase and install retractab1~ velour theater curtains for the two side walls and stage area. For the back of the hall we would like to purchase portable sound panels. The specifications were com- pleted by Jon Bates and David Maltby, Ore~on Shakespeare Festival Sound Technicians. 2) To increase the stage area we would build an easily assembled stage extension which would make the stage proscenium. For storage of this unit we need to construct a c1?set. The specifications for the stage extension were done by Gary Schrodt, Woodcraftsman/Carpenter. The closet was designed by Joyce Ward, Architect. 3) In order to accomodate sound and lighting equipment necessary for performances and supplied by performance groups, we need to install adeq~ate electrical circuits in the audi- torium. The specifications for this were done by David Maltby, OSFA Sound:' Technician. The estimated cost, of the project breaks down as follows: CURTAINS. . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $4,000. SOUND PANELS................................. $2,000. STAGE EXTENSION............................. .$1,000. STAGE EXTENSION CLOSET.......................$ 750.

MEMO PAGE TWO , The project funded by this grant needs to be completed in the year 1986 and matching funds should be acquired during this time. The Oregon Arts Commission will grant 3 to 1 on matching funds. We are seeking matching funds from three different sources. 1) We will request $2,000. from the Carpenter Foundation in Medford in December 1985. 2) We will request the City Council to allocate $2,000. out of the Community Center maintenance budget to be applied. 3) We will raise the balance of money needed through community fundraising: benefit concerts and performances, donations, dinners, slideshows etc. The performing artists in this area have expressed their need for a Community Center for the Performing Arts for a long time. Many groups will not utilize this building because they cannot cope with the problems. If we can improve the performance situation and estimated increase of weekend activity wouTd be 8 to 1 and the approximate number of people participating would be 500+. We are gaining support in the performing arts community already and we will begin promoting this project this fall and continue into next year. Thank you for considering our proposal. We hope to secure the support of the City Council as our first step to attaining our goal of enhancing our Community Center's versatility by creating a viable and desired space for the performing arts. . , ~ ( ORDINANCE/ryb.

'mo: Brian L, Almquist, City Administrator Jtf rom: Robert D. Nelson, D'irector of Finance ~ubjert: MONTHLY FINANCIAL COMMENTARY -- AUGUST 31, 1985 Electric Utility The warm summer weather increased energy consumption for ,air conditioning. Also, other aspects of the electric utility are performing satisfactorily. The ending balance next June should be at least $700,000, compared with $630,000 budgeted. . , Water Quality The successful sale of the advance refunding bonds will give rise to a significant saving in the Water Division. Hopefully, we will be able to quantify this, on a present value basis, in the next commentary. Financially, both Water and Sanitation are performing satisfactorily. Revenue Sharing The City's appeal of the denial of electric utility franchise tax revenues as "tax effort" for Revenue Sharing allocation purposes has been disallowed. The revised budget presented to the Budget Committee on September 26 did not assume, our appeal would be upheld', so no action is necessary to reflect the Treasury's unfavorable response.' Cemetery Fund Total cemetery expenditures probably will exceed the amount in the original budget, as indicated during the Budget Committee meeting, but this fund will meet or exceed its budgeted June 30, 1986 carry-over of $20,000, which is reserved for replacement of that department's backhoe/ loader. Airport Fund The airport should have sufficient resources to support operations during 1985-86; but unless new: revenues become available for this fund, it will once again need General Fund support during 1986-87.
