At 5 p.m. there will be a staff and council workshop, with a staff presentation to the council and Lakeport Planning Commission on reorganization as part of the Community and Economic Development and Redevelopment Business Plan.
The council's regular meeting will begin at 6 p.m.
On the agenda is a presentation from Lake County Community Radio/KPFZ on its new full-power station.
Sitting jointly as the council and the Lakeport Redevelopment Agency, members will approve disbursing tax increment pass-through payments to affected local taxing agencies.
A staff report by Redevelopment Manager Richard Knoll explains that the city is receiving $487,652.38 in tax increment revenue in the 2007-08 fiscal year, and state law requires it to pass on a portion of those funds to taxing agencies in the Redevelopment Project Area.
Of those funds, 20 percent – or just under $98,000 – will go to the city's housing set-aside fund, commonly used for affordable housing projects.
Another 20 percent will go to affected agencies, including the city, City of Lakeport Municipal Sewer District, Lakeport Fire District, Hartley Cemetery, Lakeport Unified School District, Mendocino College and the county, among others.
Under council business, City Manager Jerry Gillham will take to the council a discussion item on planning Phase II of Westside Park.
The council also will discuss holding a joint public meeting with the county and the City of Clearlake to discuss traffic mitigation fees.
Following the open session, the council hold a closed session to discuss labor negotiations with the Lakeport Employees Association.
The council meets at Lakeport City Hall, 225 Park St.
