RE: Undeveloped Industrial Land Within the City of Lodi
At the present time there are 368.8 undeveloped, industrially zoned acres within
the City of Lodi. Parcels are illustrated on a map on file in the Community
Development Department.
The figure was derived in the following manner: January, 1981 there were 373.3 un-
developed industrial acres within the City. This was the figure used in the
City's Development Information book. Recent annexations, general plan amendments.
and. rezonings-were compiled and added to the base figure of January, 1981.
Building permits were compiled to determine new non -vacant acreage, which was
subtracted from the above figures.

F
Cal -Cushion Inc. of Lodi is proposing a new facility that will ac-
commodate 300-400 employees. This high employment, along with
trucks from Sanitary City Disposal.and other.area industries, will
generate a considerable amount of traffic at the interse,'tions of
Turner and Cluff Roads. Therefore, it is our professional opinion
that in the best interest of the City of Lodi and the tw-p properly
owners, the City condemn this property so Turner Road may be
constructed to its full design width at this point.
Please find enclosed a parcel map indicating this requested con-
demnation. If you need any additional information, pleabe do not

In our letter of January 14, 1982 to the City Council, we made an
incorrect statement which I wish to correct. I indicated that
Morris & Wenell was representing both Cal -Cushion and Willow Oak s

Cal -Cushion only in this matter.

Dear Ms. Reimche:
We request that the Public Hearing on the condemnation of the
Snell and Jerome properties, Assessor Parcel Nos. 049-020-02 and
049-020-16, be postponed until the February 17 council meeting. I
would also like to stress that we are asking for public condemna-
tion of the right-of-ways only and not the entire properties.
As I indicated in my letter of. January 14, we believe this is a
necessity for the increase in traffic that will be placed on the
intersection of Cluff and Turner Roads.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call this
of f ice.
Sincerely,

RE: Turner Road Widening
Dear Ron:

ALICE M. REIMCHE
City Clerk
RONALD M. STEIN
City Attorney
Thank you very much for taking me to lunch on Thursday,
January 21, 1982. I wanted to try to recap the nature of
our conversation. As you will note from the cc's', i am
sending a copy of this letter to the City Council so that
they can also be privy to our conversation.
It is my understanding that the people whom you represent
would ask the City Council to widen Turner Road and to con-
demn the right--of-way over the Jerome and Snell properties>
and if the appraiser whom the City hires to appraise the
A.
taking of the right-of-way from the Jeromes and Snell, d®--
= a J� .:
termines that it would be to the City's advantage to take'_
the whole of. the Jerome and Snell properties,. that the
people whom you represent would be tiMing to pay to the
t�
City the cost of the excess take (the home and land minus
T�
the value of the right-of-way). further, the people whom
fi
r
u represent are willing to put in the street; curb
gutter and sidewalk on the right-of-way for the City:'
Further, it is my understanding that the people you repre-
sent would ask that if the City were able to sell and `rew"
the homes that are located on the Jerome and Snell property,
tbAt the City would give to the people whom you represent #
k
credit for whatever the City was able to sell the two hem®e
h'
for.ij
�f
7w i
In our discussion, Z mentioned the possibility of the people
whom you represent purchasing "thO homes from the Jeromee . and
{
Snells diractty and it was your voncern that if they wwar�`>
able to purchase said 'homes, that the City under present
�r
>{
policy would require them to dedicate the right-of-way And
put in the street. What l sugce3ted to you was that perhaps
the City would be willing to purchase the right-of-way from
the individuals whom you reprasent rather than requiring you
to dedica -e the right-of-way to the City.
Mr. Ron Judson
1/21/82 - Page Two
One concern that I mentioned during our conversation was if
the City were to condemn the Jerome and Snell right-of-ways,
that the appraiser might not feel that it is necessary to
take the complete properties and this would be of no advan-
tage to the people whom you represent.
I hope that this adequately represents our conversation and
I would certainly appreciate your confirming in writing that
it does. If you have any questions regarding this matter,
please feel free to call upon me.
Sincerely yours,
RONALD M. STEIN

MANAGER'S OFFICE
• DATE
February 24, 1982
SUBJECT:
Cluff Avenue Industrial Area (Snell/Jerome)
For your information, I am attaching a copy of a
memorandum which was prepared by the Community
Development Department regarding the Cluff Avenue
Industrial area. That memorandum sets forth the
chronological order of the development of Turner
Road and Cluff Avenue to determine the necessity
to complete the widening of Turner Road.
What is important for you to remember is that the
most that the Council may do this evening is to
make the determination, to complete the widening
of Turner Road. Upon that determination, the staff
should then be directed to employ an appraiser to
determine the cost of the right-of-way in front or
the Jerome and Snell properties. Once an appraisal
has been completed, our right -o€ -way person would
then proceed to negotiate with the Jeromes and
Snells for the purchase of the right-of-way In
front of their property.
If s_ some point in the future it is determined that
the Jeromes and Snells refuse to sell their property,
this Council would then begin the proceedings for a
condemnation of the right-of-w=ay.
