MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING
ASHLAND CITY COUNCIL
October 1, 1985
Mayor Medaris led the Pledge of Allegiance and called the meeting to
order at 7:30 p.m, on the above date in the Council Chambers, Present
were E1erath, Reid, Bennett, Acklin, Laws and Smith.
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

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.

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.

sale of the warehouse property on "A" Street to purchase property for

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.

DEAN'S RIDEABOUT

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.

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.

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.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Ashland
Ashland, O~egon 9752e
october 15, 1985
Ladies and Gentlemen:
In accordance with your request for more information regarding my
proposed guided tour business in Ashland, I wish to submit the
following:
My point of origin will be located on Winburn Way, adjacent to the
Information Booth by the Plaza. 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.
Sincerely,
~~~~~~

Brian Almquist
Administrator
City of Ashland
City Hall
Ashland, OR 97520
September 18, 1985
Dear Mr. Almquist:
The purpose of this letter is to set forth my proposal for the
operation of a guided tour business in Ashland. 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,

The City Council may, by resolution, establish such amount dependent upon

ing zoning as such use relates to the vehicular traffic which will be
generated by the property. Collection of the Fee against each property

such property, and shall commence on the 1st day of June, 1986 for
developed property, and for undeveloped property upon issuance of a

tration, and maintenance of the local street network of the City. It
shall not be necessary that .the operations, administration, and mainten-
ance expenditures from the Fund specifically relate to any particular

extent that the fees collected are insufficient to properly maintain local
streets, the cost of the same may be paid from such other city funds as
may be determined by the City Council, but the City Council may order
the reimbursement to such fund if additional fees ,are thereafter collected.

tion, administration, and maintenance shall be separately designated as
such and shall be used solely for those purposes.

Honorable Mayor and City Council

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.
WIRING AND COMPONENTS COSTS..................$ 750.
TOTAL. . . . . . . . . . . . . '. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $8,500.
.
COMM. CTR.' 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.

~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.
