TO: THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: THE CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE CMTN CIL COMMUNICATION, DATE August 12, 1986 SMECT. or-nnc I I b LUMP t un' J KtttutJ t 1U AM NU MUL 11FLt tAMIL 1 VKUJtL t APPROVAL FOR 205 AND 225 WEST LOCKEFORD STREET. BACKGROUND On February 6, 1985 the City Council approved the issuance of Multiple -Family Development Bonds for the following projects (1) 102 units at 1830 South Hutchins Street (i.e. Center Court Apartments); (2)-40 units at 205-225 West Lockeford Street; and (3),18 units at 218 South Hutchins Street. In November, 1985 when the Council declared the Moratorium on apartment construction in the central and eastern portions of the community, the Multiple -Family Bond projects at 218 South Hutchins and on Lockeford Street were granted exemptions. Center Court Apartments were under construction at the time and were outside of the Moratorium's boundaries. At its meeting of June 25, 1986 the City Council approved the request of Bennett and Compton, Inc. to divide the parcel at 218 South Hutchins Street into three fourplex lots and to substitute these units for the previously approved 18 unit project. The developer did not contemplate using bond proceeds for the fourplex construction. The 40 unit project at 205-225 West Lockeford Street (APN 041-161-15 and 16) has completed plan check and has been approved by SPARC. The application for the Building Permit expires on S^_ptember 13, 1986. Bennett and Compton are now requesting that the City Council approve an amendment to this project which would permit 205 West Lockeford Street to be developed for commercial purposes and 225 West Lockeford Street being subdivided into four fourplex lots. Both parcels are presently zoned C-2, General Conxnercial which would permit the requested changes. INDICATED ACTION. The City Council must determine if the history o t is project is such that the proposed fourplex development should continue to be exempted from the Moratorium. n:!2 WJZ"4- J S B.

Pine St. Lodi, CA 95240 ATTN: Mr. James Schroeder RE: 205 W. Lockeford Street Gentlemen: The above referenced property has been proposed and approved for a Forty Unit apartment complex. This property was exempted from the current multi -family moratorium due to proposed multi -family bond financing. At present bond financing is not available and in retrospect I feel the proposed project is not the best use of this property. A building permit has been.applied for and could be issued by paying the proper fees. In addition, SPARC approval has also been obtained for the project. The purpose of my letter is to request approval for a change in this project to allow four four plex lots on the west half of this property and a small commercial use on the east half of this property. The present commercial zoning will allow my intended commercial usage and would not be affected by the current moratorium. Therefore, my request is for approval of a reduction in density from forty units to a total of sixteen. This plan would remain the corner for commercial usage and require no action on that area. Having reviewed the original plan for this property and in view of the current over -built condition of the apartment market, I believe an approval of this proposal would be beneficial for the surrounding properties as well as a more economically feasible project to complete. The available commercial properties in the downtown area is minimal, and I believe this is a more practical approach to utilize this property. 1 1200 W.
