Tuesday, Nov. 3, 6 p.m. - Redding City Council
In closed session, the council will evaluate the performance of Interim City Manager Michael Webb.
In open session the council will:
- consider calling a special election for the office of the Redding City Clerk on March 2, 2027. The need for a special election follows the omission of the contest from the Nov. 3 ballot. A staff report indicates that the county will cover the cost as the error was made by election official Clint Curtis. Read Shasta Scout's related coverage here.
- consider an update about Redding's fiber optic broadband network. City staff are recommending that the council "allow private fiber developers to proceed through the city's established permitting process while pausing efforts to pursue a public-private partnership at this time." See the staff report.
- consider taking action related to Redding staffing vacancies in order to create cost savings. There are 38 vacant positions being considered for elimination, including top city leadership positions and an additional 8 public safety positions. Savings if all positions were cut would equal about $2.6 million in fiscal year 2027 and $3.3 million in fiscal year 2028, according to the staff report.
- consider authorizing negotiation of a lease with Redding Motorsports Park for a drag strip and motocross track at the Redding Regional Airport and negotiation of a second lease with Shasta Kart Klub and Shasta SuperMoto Club for the road course at the same location. Find the staff report here.
