L. Project
Raney Planning & Management, Inc. (Raney) has prepared the following scope of services for
the preparation of a Development Code Update for the City of Lodi, California.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
11ro,ject Locafioil
The City of Lodi is located within San Joaquin County, California. As the northern most City in
San Joaquin County, it is surrounded by the City of Galt to the north, the City of Stockton to the
south, Interstate 5 (1-5) to the west, and Highway 99 (SR -99) to the east. The City encompasses
approximately 13 square miles and has a population of approximately 63,000 people. Primary
industries include wine, agribusiness, tourism, plastics, and manufacturing.
Project Description
Raney understands that the City's current Zoning Ordinance was adopted in mid -1950 and has
since become outdated as a result of changes in regulations to development standards, adoption
of State laws, and various amendments that have been made over many years since adoption.
The City of Lodi began the process of updating the City's Zoning Ordinance and Development
Code in 1999. However, the process was halted in 2006 due to staffing and budget constraints.
During the process, a Preliminary Draft and Draft Development Code were prepared. However,
the draft Development Code was never finalized or released for public review.
Given the amount of time that has passed since the initial update process, the City of Lodi is
seeking a consultant to review and revise the preliminary draft Development Code Update and
prepare a Public Review Draft Development Code Update for release to the public and Planning
Commission, and ultimately for adoption by City Council.
Raney understands that the City's goal is to update and upgrade the Development Code while
maintaining a development pattern that would still be compatible with existing development in
the City.
APR;
Raney proposes to prepare a Development Code Update in accordance with the regulations and
requirements of the City of Lodi and the standard City of Lodi format. The Development Code
will be prepared in an internally consistent format that is user-friendly to City staff and the
public. Raney will review pertinent City documents, including the existing Zoning Ordinance
and General Plan to ensure that the Development Code is consistent with the City's plans and
policies.
Raney's approach is to serve as planning consultants to the City. Raney will coordinate
extensively with City staff and the public throughout the Development Code Update process. In
addition to the above documents, Raney will review the Preliminary Draft Development Code
and associated City comments to identify any concerns or issue areas. Raney will also meet with
�^RANEY PLANNING
MANMENIENTANc.
City staff to discuss any new information and discuss relevant laws or regulations, which should
he incorporated in the Development Code.
Raney firmly believes that the level of coordination between the City and the local citizens is
directly proportional to the success of the project. Raney will coordinate extensively with City
staff during the public outreach process and will make ourselves available to assist the City in
any way necessary to facilitate the process. President Tim Raney, AICP is an expert planner and
facilitator and will he available to facilitate meeting and hearings, including presenting the
different code options to assist decision makers in achieving their desired outcome. Mr. Raney
has extensive experience facilitating such meetings as a Community Development Director and
former Mayor of a City of 90,000. Mr. Raney will he assisted by Vice President Cindy Gnos,
AICP. Ms, Gnos is also an expert planner and facilitator, with over twelve years of public sector
planning experience and over eleven years of private sector planning and environmental
experience. As an interesting side note, Ms, (Lauchland) Gnos previously worked part-time for
the City of Lodi Planning Department over summer breaks during high school and while
attending college to achieve her degree in City and Regional Planning.
Raney recognizes that individuals and groups may provide a high level of scrutiny during the
planning process for the proposed project. Raney has extensive experience handling such
controversies. Raney operates under a belief that some dissent and unrest regarding a new
project may potentially be eliminated by the early involvement of project stakeholders and
concerned citizens. This early involvement also provides Raney with an idea of which issues will
be of greatest concern to the public. By identifying these issues, Raney can scrutinize the
planning document to ensure that those issues are adequately addressed.

FIRM OUALIFICATIONS
Raney Planning & Management, Inc. (Raney) is proud to remain a local and privately owned
planning and environmental consulting firm that continues to provide high quality services with
the same key staff that it has had over the past decade.
Given the difficult economy over the past several years, the landscape of consultants providing
planning services has changed. Local governments struggle to find consistent service and
personnel from planning firms resulting in frustrating experience for their staff. The planning
consulting industry has been diluted, company names have changed, key staff has disappeared,
and the number of international corporations claiming they have experience in preparing
planning documents has grown, while the quality of the process and product has diminished.
Cities in the Sacramento region who desire truly local CEQA firms, where the project manager is
also a key principal of the company and has full administrative authority over the contract, have
had a difficult time in finding qualified firms that meet their needs.
In spite of this ever changing landscape, Raney has remained a locally owned firm since its
establishment in 1999, dedicated to providing high-quality client services with a hands-on,
direct, and problem -solving approach. Company President Tim Raney, AICP, together with
Vice President Cindy Gnos, AICP, have built a reputation for Raney as one of the most trusted,
experienced, and highly regarded small planning firms in the Sacramento region as well as in
California. Raney is a highly professional, full-service firm providing public and private sector
clients with a variety of services, including planning, project management, environmental review
and documentation, CEQA and NEPA reports, affordable housing and community development
consulting, and other municipal planning -related services.
During its over twelve years of service, Raney bas completed projects in nearly half of the cities
in California and has provided unmatched consulting services to over 1,000 clients. As part of
our standard services, Raney has prepared and processed over 500 CEQA, NEPA, and planning
documents, including Zoning Code Updates, General Plan Updates, Environmental Impact
Reports, Negative Declarations, and Environmental Assessments. The staff at Raney has also
provided on-call planning services to several jurisdictions, including project application review,
policy and ordinance drafting, and staff report preparation and presentation.
Raney's executive management team and key staff members are expert planners and public
facilitators, having made numerous presentations before community groups, Planning
Commissions, City Councils, and Boards of Supervisors. Raney's planning services range from
preparing land use and asset management plans, writing and facilitating the process for
establishment of the award-winning Community Vision for the City of Wheatland, to providing
contract planning services as an extension of City staff.

Ordinance. The tasks included project initiation, workshops and facilitation, research,
preparation of the Zoning Ordinance, and preparation of the Initial StLidy/Negative Declaration.
Raney conducted several workshops in order to provide coordination with the Planning
Commission and City Council on the key issues and to review draft portions of the Oakley
Zoning Ordinance prepared by Raney. At the conclusion of each workshop, Raney conducted
further research in order to provide the City several options for each issue area. The cycle of
workshops and research will continue as needed in order to adequately address the issues and
approaches to the City's Zoning Ordinance. Raney also prepared an Initial Study, which

FEE PROPOSAL
DEVELOPMENT CODE UPDATE
RANEY PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT, INC.
CostProposal
The cost for completion of the Lodi Development Code Update is $47,800. The tasks are
summarized in the Technical Scope of Services of this proposal and costs by task are shown in
the attached spreadsheet. These costs are based on the estimates of time for each task provided in
the chart on the following page. Costs for the Development Code preparation will be billed on a
not -to -exceed basis, following Raney standard billing rates included in the attached spreadsheet.
The following assumptions were used in the calculations:
• Raney will attend meetings with the City staff as well as public hearings as described in
the scope of work. Raney assumes that the number of meetings required will be achieved
within the hours allocated in the attached spreadsheet. Additional meetings and hearings
are easily accommodated and will be billed on a time -and -materials basis, as directed.
• Raney costs are based on the assumption that the existing data and information for the
City of Lodi and the Development Code will be provided by the City for the preparation
of the Revised Development Code.
• Specific amounts of time for revisions to the Revised Development Code and Draft
Development Code have been assumed. Raney expects that responding to comments will
not exceed the budgeted time. If unanticipated comments result in additional time beyond
that which has been budgeted, those items will need to be renegotiated.
• Raney will provide to the City of Lodi the number of copies of the documents as
indicated in the technical scope of services. The cost for copying will be billed to the City
at actual cost.
• Raney assumes that once a Notice to Proceed is issued, the preparation of the
Development Code would be a continuous process without excessive delays. Raney
would propose to renegotiate the contract with respect to schedule and cost should
substantial delays occur in the processing of the proposed project.
• Factors that would increase the scope of work and estimated costs outlined in the
proposal include: attendance at additional public meetings; printing of additional copies
of reports; analysis of additional issues above those discussed in this proposal or a more
detailed level of analysis than described in this proposal; changes in the project requiring
reanalysis or rewriting of report sections; collection of data required for the documents
beyond that described in this proposal; attendance at additional in-house meetings beyond
those budgeted; and excessive comments on the planning documents. Raney would
propose to renegotiate these items, if required, or charge on a time -and -materials basis.
