ByHeatherHoelscher hhoelscher@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Heather on Twitter RED BLUFF The City Council is schedule to meet Tuesday at City Hall to discuss removing a ban on the use of outdoor fireplaces in residential properties, as it has been stated in the previous ordi- nance. Portable manufactured out- door fireplaces have been sold lo- cally for the use in backyards at private residences for a number of years, according to the agenda report from Red Bluff Fire Divi- sion Chief Matthew Shobash. These portable fireplaces are widely used by the public and, when used correctly, per the manufacturer's recommenda- tions, have shown to not create an increased risk of personal or property damage.

By Julie Zeeb jzeeb@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Zeeb on Twitter RED BLUFF The actual cost of construction to remodel the Red Bluff Daily News building to house the Tehama County Li- brary is expected to be lower than originally thought, esti- mated to be about $6.4 million, or about $270,000 lower, said Derek Labrecque, a partner in JK Archi- tecture, which is handling the de- sign phase. Labrecque was tasked with giv- ing the Tehama County Board of Supervisors an update along with seeking approval of the concep- tual plans for the new library site in order to be able to move onto the design phase. "We want to consider the cul- ture of Tehama County, but also have it be modern," Labrecque said. "The design will build around the history and culture of the area and what makes Te- hama County unique. We have had broad conversations over the new entry and what the commu- nity wants to see. What images they want to have celebrate the past, present and future." The group also is sensitive to the cost and is taking a look at the short-term needs to get the building up and going as well as options for expansion, such as the outdoor amphitheater. The county has set aside about $4 million for the project. Of the $6.4 million estimate, roughly $4 million is slated to for con- struction and escalation in cost, $1.75 million for fees, furniture, fixtures and equipment. The purchase of the building was $500,000. Buying an existing building was a cost-effective way to get a building similar in size to the ex- isting library and the location on Diamond Avenue played a role in the site being chosen, Chief Ad- ministrator Bill Goodwin said. An entry plaza will be con- structed in the front of the build- ing and eventually an outdoor learning quad that can be utilized by the community. The proxim- ity to the Shasta College Tehama Campus allows the potential for the college to utilized the facility.

Although the freeze watch ex- tends through the Sacramento Valley, there was less concern for crop damage here as most of what's grown on the valley floor has already been harvested. There's still quite a bit of citrus on trees in the San Joaquin bot- toms.
