AGENDA TITLE: Consider Removal of Recreation Commissioner Barbara Wardrobe -Fox and
Appointment of Recreation Commissioner Ethan Chelli
MEETING DATE: March 6, 2013
PREPARED BY: City Clerk
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Consider removal of Recreation Commissioner Barbara Wardrobe -Fox
and appointment of Recreation Commissioner Ethan Chelli.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This item is being brought before the City Council for consideration at
the request of Council Member Johnson with concurrence by Mayor
Nakanishi.
Section 5.2 of the City Council Protocol Manual sets forth the following removal policy for Boards, Committees
and Commissions appointed by the City Council:
"A majority vote of the City Council may remove any member of a Commission for any reason including,
but not limited to, conduct unbecoming a public official, violating the City's Conflict of Interest Code, failing
to comply with statutory requirements, or failing to attend fifty percent (50%) of the Commission meetings
in a calendar year. Conduct unbecoming a public official includes the conduct that any reasonable
commissioner would know is incompatible to public service, would indicate a lack of fitness to perform the
functions of a commissioner or would discredit or cause embarrassment to the City.
Any member of the City Council may initiate a person's removal from a Commission by requesting that
consideration of the person's removal be placed on the Council's agenda at a regular or special meeting
for discussion and potential action. The City Clerk shall notify the person affected of the time and place of
the meeting. When the item is on the City Council agenda, the City Council may, by majority vote, remove
the person from a Commission."
Ms. Fox's removal has been recommended based on current and previous lack of compliance with AB 1234
Ethics Training, previous lack of compliance with Conflict of Interest Code filings and attendance shortcomings
over the previous two years. Notice of this meeting was provided to Ms. Fox pursuant to Section 5.2 above.
The Mayor held interviews with candidates for the Recreation Commission on January 7, 2013. While the
incumbents were reappointed at that time, new applicant Ethan Chelli also excelled in the interview process
and was determined to be a qualified candidate for Recreation Commissioner. In the alternative, the City
Council may direct the posting and application process for the position which will take a minimum of 60-90
days depending upon the number of applications received. In January 2013, only four individuals, including
the two incumbents, applied for the two positions.
Due to the recent timing of the interviews, it is recommended that if the City Council removes Commissioner
Fox from the Recreation Commission then it also appoint Mr. Chelli as the successor Commissioner.
FISCAL IMPACT: None.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.

Dear Commissioners,
We will be cancelling the September Parks and Recreation Commission meeting due to low attendance.
We do have a couple of items we would like to discuss with the Commission prior to the first Council meeting in
October.
There is a remote possibility that we may have an emergency meeting prior to the end of September. We
request that all Commissioners be
available for the October meeting.
Please feel free to call me if you have any questions.
Thank You

Terri -
The mandatory AB 1234 ethics training is not complete for any of the Recreation Commissioners.
Commissioner Fox has taken the training and I am awaiting her return of the signed certificate.
I have no record of any of the other Commissioners having taken the training. As you are aware, they must
complete the training before the December 31, 2010 deadline. If they do not, they will not be eligible to receive
any reimbursements and/or stipends from the City. They can complete the online training at the link listed below
and send in their certificate accordingly to ensure compliance.
Let me know if you have any questions regarding the same and/or need assistance in communicating this
information to the relevant Commissioners.
Thank you as always for your assistance with this!

Review and Approve Access and Design Concept for Mokelumne Water Treatment Plant
Mr. Rodems introduced this item. Wally Sandelin, Public Works Director, informed the Commission of the
status of the Mokelumne Water Treatment Plant. The cost of the plant is in the range of $30,000,000 to
$40,000,000. Mr. Sandelin feels at this point in time its important for the Commission and staff to begin to firm
up what the uses are going to be, what the building location might be for the group picnic facility, as well as a
restroom facility. Mr. Sandelin stated in previous preliminary designs there was a restroom facility incorporated
into the Water Treatment Plant building but with new Homeland Security requirements, this is no longer a
viable option.
Commissioner Wardrobe -Fox asked if the development of this site will continue to include upgrades and
infrastructure upgrades to the remaining park portion of the 13 acres. Mr. Sandelin feels this is a discussion
that the Parks and Recreation Commission, the Council, and the City Manager need to have. Commissioner
Akin recalls this being part of Council's understanding.

Pigs Lake. There are also discussions regarding possibly dredging Lodi Lake which would allow for better

II. Action Items
Delta Velo Bicycle Race and Festival
Mr. Rodems introduced this item. Mr. Rodems asked the Commissioners to discuss this item and take
action tonight on the Delta Velo Bicycle Race.
Grace Malson introduced Dominic Brooks and Damien Gonzalez from Delta Velo Bicycle Team. They
plan on approximately 2,000 spectators and over 500 professional bicyclists. Ms. Malson feels this
event will have a positive impact on the downtown area.
Dominic Brooks — Race Director for Delta Velo. The race is scheduled to be in downtown Lodi. Mr.
Brooks stated these races would be similar to races that have been held in Davis and San Luis
Obispo. Mr. Brooks would like to see Lodi be a stop on the AmGen Tour of California as Davis and
San Luis Obispo have been. The racers range from amateurs to professional racers along with a
children's event for under 13 year olds.
Mr. Rodems stated there have been a number of pathways laid out for this race. The map that the
Commission has is a revised map after discussions with the Downtown Lodi Business Partnership
(DLBP). The DLBP tried to mitigate some of the impact they see from downtown events and provide
better access to businesses even though part of the downtown will be closed for the race. Mr.
Rodems and Mr. Brooks had a discussion of this map prior to tonight's meeting and they didn't see a
huge issue with the outline of the course as long as it achieved the goals of the organization and it
does not additionally impact the adjacent residencies. Mr. Rodems also stated that the Parks and
Recreation Department is doing this race in partnership with the Delta Velo organization as an
inaugural event to try to start bringing in more events into Lodi under the umbrella of an event arm of
Recreation. Our involvement allows Delta Velo to bring their costs down and Recreation allows Delta
Velo access to our equipment as well as our name will go on all the materials as a co-sponsor. The
goal of the Recreation Department is to bring events into Lodi that will increase revenues for the City.
Commissioner Sasaki asked for history of who has been presented with the idea of this proposed race.
Mr. Brooks stated that most if not all shops along the proposed race route have been contacted by Mr.
Gonzalez and the DLBP has endorsed this particular course as well as the event itself. The Fire
Marshall's concern was closing Church Street down completely. However the new race route will
allow for north and south bound traffic on Church Street. Mr. Gonzalez stated his concern was parking
for the churches on the west side of Church Street so Delta Velo has freed up the big parking lot so it
won't impact parking. Commissioner Sasaki asked if the City would be liable for any issues. Mr.
Rodems stated that Delta Velo has been asked to provide liability insurance by the City in addition to
coming under the Parks and Recreation Department umbrella as a co-sponsor. Mr. Gonzalez stated
that all racers participating in this event sign a liability waiver that frees up the racing organization as
well as the City of any liability. The racers are also covered with insurance through USA Cycling as
well. Mr. Rodems stated that the City gave Delta Velo their insurance requirements and the additional
liability coverage's are acceptable to the City.

designated park space for use by park flyer electric aircraft. Mr. Shorts explained these aircraft are less than 2 lbs.
in weight and go less than 60 mph. Mr. Shorts feel that a special area with certain times designated for flying of
aircraft will allow people who fly planes at other areas (i.e. Target and Walmart) to have a safe area to utilize. He
recommends having a partnership with Academy of Model Aeronautics for the purpose of liability as well as a liaison
for people in the community. He also recommends that each flyer have an insurance policy of $500,000 in case
there was ever an accident. Commissioner Wardrobe -Fox asked if this was a program where lessons could be
taught. Mr. Shorts feels this is something that could be done. Commissioner Long feels that Mr. Shorts should work
with staff on this issue. Mr. Dutra would be happy to have a conversation with Mr. Shorts regarding this issue.

deductible through the City's insurance company. Mr. Rodems will take the report forward to the Risk Manager to
look at the options through the City's insurance company in addition look for fund sources outside the Parks budget
for replacement. Commissioner Wall asked that this item be added to the agenda for the November meeting.

brought to the Commission. Mr. Dutra stated staff doesn't typically bring on going maintenance issues before the
Commission. Commissioner Wall feels these types of items should be addressed in a public forum and not as a
one-on-one discussion between a Commissioner and staff and then brought up as a question under Comments by
the Commission. Mr. Rodems shared with the Commission that when an incident has occurred at a park facility an
accident report is completed and forwarded to the Risk Manager for their review and recommendation.
