How to resolve AdBlock issue? The council will meet beginning at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 15, in the council chambers at Clearlake City Hall, 14050 Olympic Drive.
On the agenda is consideration of an interim urgency ordinance adopting a 45-day moratorium on the establishment of tobacco retailing businesses, smoke shops, or hookah and vapor lounges within the city.
The report from City Manager Greg Folsom and City Attorney Ryan Jones explains that they’re proposing the urgency ordinance because the city has been approached by a company that wants a business license to open up a smoke shop on Lakeshore Drive.
“The City’s zoning ordinance does not distinguish between tobacco retailers, smoke shops, or hookah or vapor lounges and any other type of retailer,” the report said.
If approved, staff would begin to work on a permanent ordinance that would be presented first to the planning commission, Folsom and Jones said.
Also on the agenda is consideration of two contract amendments, including one for construction design services during the Country Club/Kings Lane Pavement Rehabilitation Project. It would allow for an additional $3,240 to Coastland Civil Engineers, with an allowance for up to 10 percent for additional unforeseen contract amendments.
Another amendment for construction design services would allow for an additional $4,880 plus up to 10 percent for unforeseen amendments to Coastland on the Dam Road Extension Project.
The council also will consider awarding the restriping and bike lane project to Chrisp Co. for $287,567.50, with a 10-percent amendment allowance.
In other business, the council will take up staff’s proposal to reject all bids for the Harbor Lane/Highlands Harbor pavement rehabilitation project and will consider a $92,000 contract with Foster Morrison Consulting for consultant services to develop a new city local hazard mitigation plan.
Also on Tuesday, the council will consider a letter of support for the Adventist Health-St. Joseph Health Partnership.
