CLEARLAKE, Calif. – The Clearlake City Council will hear a presentation from Clearlake Police Chief Craig Clausen regarding crime prevention during its regular meeting on Thursday.
The council will meet beginning at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 24, at Clearlake City Hall, 14050 Olympic Drive.
The presentation is the final item of business on the evening's agenda, which is led by a presentation on the Clear Lake Cyanotoxin Monitoring Program.
Also scheduled is a public hearing for consideration, and possible first reading, of a proposed ordinance to regulate telecommunications facilities in the city.
The public hearing was previously continued to allow staff the opportunity to address concerns regarding height restrictions and other details of the ordinance submitted on behalf of Verizon Wireless.
Gary Price, contracted planner for the city, said that several applications recently have been received for the development of wireless facilities, consisting mostly of proposals to install large cellular transmission towers. The city currently does not have any regulations that specifically address these types of applications, he said.
The council will also consider a resolution authorizing the finance director to make interfund loans for the purpose of cash flow management at the current Local Agency Investment Fund rate of interest.
An abatement order appeal hearing on property owned by Ted Barcelon also appears on the agenda. However, staff will recommend that the hearing be continued to the Oct. 8 regular meeting.
The council will begin the evening at 5:30 p.m. in closed session for discussion and possible action on six items:
– Conference with legal counsel for existing litigation concerning the case of Anthony Spittler, Jeri Spittler and Robin Farham versus the City of Clearlake.
– Conference with legal counsel for existing litigation concerning the civil action case of John Leroy Clemons versus Don Anderson et al.
– Conference with real property negotiator concerning a 26-acre property owned by the city, the price and terms of payment of which is currently under negotiation with Katz Kirkpatrick Properties.
– Conference with real property negotiator concerning property owned by Tim Yarbrough in the area of Ogulin Canyon Road. Price and terms of payment are under negotiation.
– Conference with real property negotiator concerning property owned by Nancy Chisnall at 14265 Lakeshore Drive. Price and terms of payment are under negotiation.
