Lodi Avenue. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Hernandez' acquired the property at 311 E. Lodi Avenue in July of 2004. Since then, the work that they have done has made a definite impact on the property and in that block in general. After acquiring the necessary permits, they initiated a complete interior and exterior renovation of the single-family dwelling. While it remains a very modest dwelling in a neighborhood that has a mix of retail and residential uses, it is without a doubt a marked improvement from the surrounding properties. It is our hope that this is the first of many improvements to be made along that block. As the Hernandez' have put the house on the market for resale, we are very pleased to hear that they are looking for other properties to purchase and turn -around as they have with this property. For their work in improving this property and the positive impact that it has had on the surrounding neighborhood, the Lodi Improvement Committee felt that this property and these owners were well deserving of the Community Improvement Award. cc: Lodi Improvement Committee Martin & Tanya Hemandez APPROVED: city
