Background: The City of Mt Shasta owns a 127-acre parcel which is the former location of the Roseburg Lumber Mill. Since the site was deeded to the City approximately 25 years ago, attempts have been made to seek a qualified developer to purchase and build on the property. The City’s efforts have attracted interest but no serious development proposal or offers to purchase. The major obstacle that has frustrated development attempts is the lack of infrastructure (e.g. sewer, water) to serve the site.
The City has an established developer, Pinsonneault Holdings, who is interested in signing an LOI with the City for the purposes of conducting a feasibility study and to assemble financing to purchase the site. Council will discuss whether to approve the LOI.
Report By: Todd Juhasz, City Manager
Recommended Council Action: Approve the Letter of Intent to purchase and develop the Landing.
Background: At the May 13th City Council meeting, the subject of placing a half-cent sales tax measure on the November ballot was suggested. In addition, it was suggested that this proposed tax increase should have some nexus with the potential for moving City fire and police services to a for hire contract with the County. Council will discuss options for adding the sales tax measure to the ballot and other potential options.
Report By: Todd Juhasz, City Manager
Recommended Council Action: Discussion and direction to staff on whether to place a ½ cent sales tax increase on the November ballot.
