Additionally, members will receive presentations by the consultant team on the four working papers that were distributed several weeks ago. The working papers have also been made available on the General Plan Update page of the City's web- site. Finally, it is anticipated that there will be ample time allotted to answer any questions or respond to comments regarding this subject matter. As mentioned previously, the working papers and community workshop provide a foundation for the consultants work moving forward. Much of the content is factual data concerning each topic area and is not meant to answer any particular question. The final portion of the evening's activities will focus attention on the next phase of the update having to do with alternative development. The intent is to lead a discussion regarding several topic areas such as: Where to grow How much to grow (land use mix and balance) Character of development Transportation Public facilities Sustainability This list is not meant to be exclusive, but we will certainly want to cover these subject areas.

I General Plan Policy Implications ■ Create walkable streets: pedestrian scaled, green, safe. ■ Provide pedestrian/bicycle connectivity, especially to important destinations and in districts that lack it. ■ Create public spaces of varied character throughout the city. ■ Encourage small scale neighborhood retail and service centers with walkable village character. ■ Develop housing Downtown and on underutilized sites throughout the city in order to maintain Lodi's green perimeter. ■ Maintain and enhance the distinctive character of neighborhoods through preservation and place -based design guidelines. Lodi General Pian Update •jI Growth & Economic Development Strategy What it means for the General Plan ■ Land for Residential Use • Demand for 8,100 - 14,400 new housing units • Amount of land required will depend on density of development ■ Land for Nonresidential Use • Need for 35 to 75 acres of new retail space • Need for about 300 acres of land for other nonresidential uses Lodi General Plan Update What's important to Lodi? ■ Preserving community character and identity ■ Sustaining economic vitality ■ Maintaining agricultural base ■ Growing the visitor industry ■ Maintaining downtown ■ Fiscal health: revenues sufficient to cover service costs Lodi General Plan Update Key topics ■ Retail sales ■ Visitor industry ■ Paying for municipal services and facilities ■ Employment base ■ Jobs/housing balance Lodi General Plan Update Retail sales ■ Critical source of revenue for fiscal health • Grew between 1995 and 2005 (per capita, adjusted for inflation) ■ Are we doing well enough?
