HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - March 20, 1985CITY COUNCIL, MEUDU Nil 20 1985, into an agreement with the developer to either grant a density bonus or provide not less than two other bonus incentives for the project and other incentives_ As you are aware, the City adopted the housing element of the general plan which has as one of its goals, the adequate provision of housing. Another goal is to develop an incentive program which encourages new developments to designate a percentage of the units supply housing for particular need groups in the community. Page 71, paragraph 4 of the housing element states that "as an additional incentive to include low and moderate income housing, those projects containing units of this nattLre should be -given t priority. As an example, a par::ular sta f person, knowledgeable of below market rate housing, should be designated to sheppard these development applications quickly through the permit process." Therefore, we ask that the City act expeditiously on our request. We understand that the City, as a precondition to annexation, must place our matter on the ballot to be voted on by the citizens. We are informed that the City. upon making the finding that the proposed annexation 's contiguous to existing city boundries (which this property is) and the project demand from the proposed development in the area to be annexed will not exceed the service capacity of the existing municipal utilities and services, the school district, and existing roadways (a finding which can be made) that the City must then schedule an election. Would you kindly advise me when this p- operty can first be considered by the voters. Thank you for your kind attention to this matter. Very truly yours, s/A. Fred Baker. s/Melvin E.

D11:4SURES PLACID Frederick Baker for annexation of certain parcels to the City C%1 \UVU,13ER 1985 of Lodi and Mlleasure "A" measures to be placed on Novery-ber BALLar ballot" was introduced by Staff. The requests are hereinafter set forth and thereby made a part of the record. "Dear City Council MaThers: Being a part of Lodi for 23 years, it has been exciting for me to purchase the Toone Estate so it can be preserved as a Lodi land -nark. With the dream of being able to retain the history, digm;ty, and traditions of the Tonne family and the many friends r�bo have enjoyed the estate for the past 82 years, it will still reflect all the rlonderful and happy times as it is shared in the future. It will be a landmark for all of us to be proud of and enjoy. ply plan is to convert the property to a very rc=tic and nostalgic inn called the "Wine and Poses" Country Inn. The gracious atmosphere of the charming home and beautiful grounds will be refurbished for overnight guests, an intimate restaurant, small outdoor weddings, private gatherings, and fund raising activities. I believe the property will be a significant asset to our calm pity. The property sits on the edge of the city limits of Lodi, but is in the county. The approval of the County Use Permits states that I must conform to city standards in developing the off-site irrprovements on Turner Road, and the county is requiring me to comply with them on the on-site improvements such as server, water, and parking. To put in all the required on and off-site improvements is going to be very costly. To install all the necessary sewer requirements will tear up a good portion of the beautiful grounds we want to preserve. The water requirements require me to add a new pump, holding tank, and possible new well. Niy ultimate goal -is to become annexed to the city. Knowing that can only happen through an election, I intend to take the necessary steps to get on the November ballot, but the timing of the project needs to be completed by summer. Since the Torine Estate is very much a part of the past, present, and future of Lodi, I am requesting that you consider allowing the property to be served with water and sewer utilities. Thanking you in advance for your consideration.
