HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - September 16, 1981 (67)LODI COMMUNITY A slide presentation on the Lodi Community Center
CENTER as prepared by the Lodi Design Group and moderated
by Mr. Leta Bishop was presented. Copies of the Lodi
Community Center Master Plan Report as prepared for
the City of Lodi dated September 7, 1981 was also
presented for Council's perusal. In his presentation,
Mr. Bishop indicated that the "group" feels strongly
that the project design is viable and that the project
can be started with virtually no money. The "Group's"
recommendation have been and are:
1. Remove the following buildings:
a) Auto Shop
b) Shop Rooms
c) Old Bus Bard
d) wood Shop
e) Girls Shower
f) Main Building Foundation
g) Custodial Building
2. Board up to preserve including roof repair
a)
Science
b)
Gyms
r)
Pool
d)
Auditorium
e)
Music
3. Continue to use and improve:
a) Cafeteria
b) Spurts Field
These rec(x mendations are based upon a lack of capital
expenditure allocations sufficient to reconstruct any of
tite "to preserve" buildings. It should be noted that the
auto shop, wood- shop and custodial buildings can be used
until such time as their- use interferes with the completion
of the master plan development.
At the introduction. of Councilman Pinkerton, Council
commended the Lodi Design Group on the work they have
accomplished.
Discussion followeJ with questions being directed- to Fir.
Bishop. Councilman Katnich indicated that he felt that
the electorate should at the next election vote on a
special tax to raise the funds necessary for this project.

Just prior to the close of the meeting, Council, oil, motion
of Mayor Pro Tempore Murphy, Pinkerton second, adopted the
Lodi Community Center Mester Plan and directed the City
Clerk to place the "Lodi Community Center" on the agenda
for the Ocotber 7, 1981 meeting to receive further direction
from the Council regarding the site.

LODI COMMUNITY CENTER
LODI UNION HIGH SCHOOL
"The Center 10 Acres"
During the earl;, years of Lodi, education was considered the backbone of
progress for the community. Many of the residents, city fathers and school board
members worked long, hard hours to develop an academic plant befitting a conserva-
tive, but progressive small town, something of which to be proud. The physical
plant was constructed, and aver the years expanded to include additional facilities
such as the shops, gyms, pool, music and cafeteria buildings. Over the years,
the school became a focal point for music and drama as well as academics. The
Lodi Design Group's research into the architecture and planning has proven the
soundness of this previous work, and has formed the basis upon which our directions,
suggestions and conclusions ore built. The community interest and support created
when LUSD and the City of Lodi negotiated the sole, purchase of the site, has been
the force behind our efforts and the efforts of countless citizen groups and individuals --
all with the goal of creating "something" out of the old campus. That something is what
the City Council, City Administration, Old LUHS Foundation, the Community Develop-
ment Committee, the Lodi Design Group and the residents of Lodi can be proud.
A community center can be numerous things -- sports complex for the physically
active, meeting rooms for all manner of groups, and a cultural focal point for audio
and visual arts. In addition, it could provide any number of other possible program
homes. The search for those programs and places desired by the populace and not as yet
supplied by the community, has resulted in a "shopping list" of services, from gyms to
theater -to swimming to running to music ► ;ns to museum spaces. All have merit, and
required the Lodi Design Group to ex the value both in terms of providing the
space necessary and in determining how we might pay for the privilege. in this report,
we have included the data presented as preliminary research as well as all of the
statistical data and estimates we used in the development of the program presented.
A majority of respondents to our questionnaire.- indicated a desire to restore
and/or rehabilitate all of the facilities. We have isolated several buildings which
serve no apparent useful purpose, and recommend their removal. Each of the
recommendations has resulted in a large quantity of soul searching to be sure of our
directions. Even as this report is being completed, many other possibilities (variables)
have presented themselves. As one possibility is considered, it affects all of the other
variables. Therefore, our master plan should be considered as a base upon which decisions
can be made, but not that these choices are the only ones possible. By changing the
direction of the program from that established by our research, some alternatives would
prove appropriate. One of these alternatives would be the re -development of the Science
Building into a senior citizens housing center. This suggestien could be considered during
the implementation phase of the project.
The physical plant was constructed during the years 1909 to 1965 of quality
material and workmanship. The limitations imposed by the early construction time
of the auditorium, science, gyms and pool structures are a lock of current earthquake
resistance of the structure, no year around heating -air conditioning and electrical
systems that are outmoded or damaged due to vandalism. For those buildings considered
as part of our program, each of these constraints has been removed in our cost estimates
and the buildings made to comply with current building and safety codes, (including
the Field Act).
The selection of specific buildings was made based upon the program developed
after our first workshop to answer the question, "What is a community center as it relates;
to Lodi". This program is shown in Workshop II report as "Lodi Community Center
Program". In analyzing this program, several buildings existing on the property were
obvious choices for restoration and use based purely upon economics. We found the
costs less for restoration than a totally new structure (refer to Workshop 11 report
"Cost Estimates"). During the finalization phase of the Master Plan, some additional
components from Workshop II have been included and a more detailed analysis developed
which has resulted in the increased cost estimate. We have included approximately 4000
square feet of office/storage space for the use of the Department of Parks and Recreation.
This addition serves a two -fold purpose: To provide an easily accessible modern office
for this segment of public service, and to locate administrative personnel near physical
activity to reduce the number of personnel required to operate the sports portion of the
Center.
Our recommendations have been and are:
1. Remove the following buildings:
a. Auto Shop
b. Shop Rooms
c. Old Bus Barn
d. Wood Shop
e. G iris Shower
f. Main Building Foundation
g. Custodial Building
2. Board up to preserve including roof repair:
a. Science
b. Gyms
c. Pool
d. Auditorium
e. Music
3. Continue to use and improve:
a. Cafeteria
b. Sports Field
The above recommendations are based upon a iock of capital expenditure allocations
sufficient to re -construct any of the "to preserve" buildings. It should also be noted that the
auto shop, wood shop and custodial buildings can be used until such time as their use
interferes with the completion of the master plan d:velopment.

In any planning program, choices and decisions are made on the best information
available at the time. Our choices are the interpretation of the data available to use,
including financial choices made for us by the various levels of government, (Prop. 13,
federal tax laws, etc..) -- refer to the information developed by our counselor, Wes Dunn,
for the relationships currently available for investors. This portion of the report was
developed for the purpose of analyzing proposals developed by private industry as this
direction may be the only way this project could be built in a short period of time (in
the magnitude of two to five years). If private, corporate, state and federal donations
and grants would be available, and the time schedule could be expanded to a "do it as
you can" type program, the overall development could take ten to fifteen years. Both
ways would provide the desired results -- a community center available to the residents
of Lodi.
Attached is additional data including a revised ;.ost estimate based upon the fines I
master pion program, concluded financial analysis and the transcript of Workshop II. We
hope all who read this report will feel the appropriateness of our plan and express their
feelings to all the people responsible for the decisions necessor, to - or not to - implement
the program.
Much credit and thanks to our consultants, Wes Dunn and John Hagy and to the
staff at the City of Lodi for "their invaluable assistance.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Introduction
The first segment of this financial analysis focuses upon the operating
entity known as the Community Center and develops projected operating
statements for the first five full years of operation. These financial
projections outline the estimated revenues and expenditures of three
different cost and revenue centers (the Multi -Purpose Center, the Recrea-
tion Center, and the Cultural Center), and summarizes all of these centers
into what is called the projected operating statement.
The second segment of this financial analysis section focuses upon the
relationship between the City of Lodi and the private sector in regards
to financing arrangements to achieve the remodel and construction of the
Community Center. This second section contains an example of private
industry's perspective, and develops a financing model based upon a hypo-
thetical sale/leaseback arrangement between a private developer and the
City of Lodi.
Projected Revenues and Costs
The projected operating statement enclosed addresses estimated revenues
for the first five full years of operation and breaks these revenues into
two general categories (maximum revenues and projected revenues). This
format provides the reader with information regarding the architects' per-
ception of the maximum possible revenues generated from each of the indi-
vidual revenue centers, as well as an estimation of the projected actual
revenues in comparison to those maximums. In addition to the dollar
amounts for the maximum and projected revenues, there are two percentages
displayed, one called "breakeven X of maximum", and one called "projected
X of maximum".
The breakeven X of maximum is the percent of the maximum revenue capacity
required in order for the operations of the Community Center to break even.
It should be noted here that this percentage does not include any debt ser-
vice or lease payments which might arise from negotiations with the private
sector. The breakeven X of maximum addresses only the percentage of the
maximum attainable revenues required in order for the operating entity
Itself to break even. For example, in year 1 the breakeven % of maximum
is 33X. The interpretation of this 33% is simply that in order for the
Community Center operations to meet operational expenses, actual revenues
must be 33% of the $676,280 maximum revenues shown.
The projected X of maximum represents a ratio between the total projected
revenues ane the total maximum revenues. For example, in the first year
:he projected X of maximum is 30X, which is interpreted ar the revenue
projections for the first year equal 307. of the maximum revenues.

Sint* the breakeven point is def ined as that point of revenue volume
whereby the revenues equal the expenses, one can compare the breakeven X
of maximum with the projected % of maximum and conclude that wherever the
projected % of maximum exceeds the breakeven % of maximum, the Community
Center will be operating at a surplus and will be able to, at least par—
ti-ally, contribute toward the financing costs.
The details for the revenue analysis section are fully developed in the
financial analysis appendix. To fully understand the revenue section of
the projected operating statement, the reader should know the basis for
determining the maximum revenues and the projected revenues. Basically,
the maximum revenues represent the total expected revenues that the archi—
tects felt could be acquired at a "maximum pragmatic use" level. This
concept of MAXIMUM PRAGMATIC USE addresses the issue of capacity that
would reasonably be expected, were the facilities to be used to their
OPTIMUM. For example, the Cultural Center includes an auditorium, some
music ro4.ms, a small meeting room, other art and display rooms, and a
museum. Focusing on the auditorium, the architects projected that at full
{ utilization, the auditorium would be used three times per week. Since
the auditorium has a plu need seating capacity of 900 people, and a reason—
able price for a ticket might be $2.50, and since there are 52 weeks in
a year, the MAXIMUM PRAGMATIC CAPACITY for the auditorium could be
expressed in the following algebraic formula: 52 weeks x 3 uses/week x
900 seats x $2.50/seat for a maximum pragmatic capacity in today's dollars
of $351,000 per year. The PROJECTED use; on the other hand, represents the
EXPECTED UTILIZATION rather than the maximum pragmatic utilization. The
expected utilization to that level of use which is EXPECTED in years 1, 2,
3, 4, etc. For example, with regard to the auditorium the architects felt
that in year 1, utilization would equal 25% of. the maximum pragmatic use.
In year 2 that utilization would be increased to 452 of the pragmatic use
figure. In year 3 the utilization would be 65%, in year 4, 85%, and in
year 5, 100%. The details of these assumptions, related to the revenues
and expenditurGe of the individual centers and also of the Community
Center as a whole, are outlined in the financial analysis appendix.
Directing attention to the projected operating statement under the cate—
gory of projected disbursements, there are two subtitles, "cost center
disbursements", and "administrative costs". The cost center disbursements
represent those projected expenses that can be directly assigned to each
one of the individual cost centers. For example, within the Recreation
Center it was felt that certain staff salaries would be necessary for
Individuals who�.vuld be needed for operational functions of the swimming
pool (namely a lifeguard and manager). Since their functions would bw.
limited to managing and overseeing the swimming pool, their salaries
could be directly assignable to the cost center known as the "Recreation
Center". The second category of administrative costs outlines those types
of general overhead costs of operating the entire Community Center which
cannot be directly assignable to any one of the specific cost centers.
Using this format, the projected operating statement outlines the direct
and indirect costs of operations as projected by the architectural group.
r
The total operating surplus or deficit represents the difference between
the total operating disbursements and the total projected revenues. It
should be noted that the total maximum revenues do not enter into this com-
putation in any way, and it should also be noted that this operating sur-
plus or deficit represents a surplus or deficit directly attributable to 4r
the active operation of the Community Center and does not include any
financing costs such as lease or mortgage payments.
It should also be noted that in the case of most revenues and expenses an
82 annual inflationary factor was used in order to make the projected oper-
ating statement more closely approximate reality.
Financing Costs
In order to complete the financial framework, the financing costs must be
identified. These financing costs represent either debt service or lease
payments that would be required on the development costs of the property.
At this point in the analysis it is necessary to sake a number of very ccsm-
plex assumptions regarding the relationship between private industry and
the City of Lodi, as well as the private sector's desired rates of return
on investment, and the private sector's cost of capital. Inherent within
all of these assumptions, of course, are the tax benefits that inure to the
private.sector as a result of the acquisition of tax beneficial property.
At this point, let us assume for the sake of discussion that the City of
Lodi sells the existing buildings to a private developer who then develops
those buildings and leases them back to the City. Let's assume for a
moment that the sales price is $200,00, and that the developer desires a
12% after tax, time -adjusted inter:ial rate of return on all investments.
The result of the complex computations generated by these assumptions indi-
cates that under this set of circumstances, the contractor would be willing
to lease the completed facilities to the City of Lodi at a lease contract of
$648,224 a year for a period of 50 years. The assumptions and analysis
necessary to arrive at the $648,224 will be discussed in detail later in
this report. For the moment, focus on that lease payment and how it
affects the City's perspective. The following numerical analysis summar-
izes the City's position under the set of assumptions outlined above, as
well as the projected operating statements:

It is easy for the reader to see that the deficit period for the Lodi
Community Center, under the above set of circumstances, would be a period
of approximately five years as the deficit decreases each and every year,
until in the fifth year when the deficit is $33,000. The question then,
arises as to how the deficit might be fundi i. There are three options out-
lined above and one might focus on item number 2, "private citizen contri—
butions". Of course, such contributions are tax beneficial to the private
citizen in the sense that these contributions are tax deductible to the
individual, which represents a discount to the dollar value of the property
or cash contributed. Various other arrangements can be made with the pri—
vate citizen groups related to dollar contributions that are tax beneficial.
The private citizens' estate tax can be affected by any contributions made
during the lifetime, as well as any contributions being made of a testa-
mentary nature. The citizen need only seek tax counsel to structure the
gifts in such a manner as to optimize their tax benefit.

THE PRIVATE SECTOR'S PERSPECTIVE
The previous analysis developed the basics regarding a single choice of
relationship between the City of Lodi and the private seccor developer.
This section of the report will further develop the posture of a private
developer in a sale/leaseback transaction, and will outline in detail the
assumptions made in order to arrive at the above stated lease figure of
$648.224 per year.
Private industry is most likely to view this entire project from the posi-
tion of optimizing time -adjusted internal rate of return on investment. In
order to make the proper analysis regarding optimization of time adjusted
internal rate of return, one must first identify the returns and then iden-
tify the expenditures, combine the two and make a series of calculations
to arrive at the time -adjusted internal rate of return.
Generally speaking, there are two categories of returns that could be
associated with a sale/leaseback transaction between the private sector
and the City of Lodi. The private sector would receive returns from rev-
enues collected and returns from tax incentives. Since the revenue returns
f row the rents collected are obvious in nature, this report will now focus
upon the tax incentives.
Tax Incentives
The new 1981 Tax Law provides expanded tax incentives for investment in
real estate and especially of investment in real estate of the type under
study. Following is a list and description of each one of zhe tax incen-
tives legislated .in the 1981 Act:
1. Fifteen Year Depreciation on All Real Estate - Prior to 1981, the
useful life of real estate was determined on a "fact and situation"
basis. Normally the posture of the Internal Revenue Service was that
a useful life of 35 to 60 years was reasonable on real estate struc-
tures. The Tax Act of 1981 includes a concept called "accelerated
cost recovery system", whereby the cost recovery of all depreciable
real property is designated to be 15 years. The tax benefit generated C_
by this change is simply that the depreciation deduction is now more
than twice as large on a straight-line depreciation basis as it has
been in the past, and the tax deduction for depreciation therefore is
more than twice as large.
2. `Investment Tax Credit - The 1981 Act provides for a 25% investment tax
credit for qualifying cost of rehabilitating "certified historical"
structures. This simply means the government will rebate 25% of the
14
rehabilitation costs on a structure that has been previously certi—
fied as a historical structure by the Office of the Secretary of the
Interior of the United States. In order to qualify for this 252
investment tax credit, the expenditure must be for the purposes of
rehabilitating existing buildings with many exterior, structural, and
site improvements included in the category of eligible expenditures.
3. As well as the shortened lives related to the depreciation, the new Tax
Law provides for an optional accelerated depreciation for real estate
acquired after 1981. These accelerated depreciation rates will
increase the tax write—off potential for an investment, and specifi—
cally would accelerate the recapture of monies invested.
In order to arrive at the private sector's lease payment requirements,
several very specific assumptions were made related to the financial pos—
ture of the private developer. Following is a list of these assumptions:
1. City of Lodi sold the existing buildings to the private developer for
a cost of $200,000. Cost of construction was estimated to be
$4,989,580, 752 of which was includible as eligible investment tax
credit property for rehabilitation of certified historical buildings.
2. Total project costs, therefore, were $5,189,580 (200,000 + 4,989,580).
3. Financing arrangements were assumed to be such that the developer could
finance 752 of the property with a 25 year loan amortization at 152 per
annum, yielding a monthly payment of $49,852 on the mortgage.
4. The developer was assumed to be eligible to take complete advantage of
the $935,546 investment tax credit over a period of three years through
a series of either carryover or carryback maneuvers.
5. The developer chose the 15 year straight—line write—off method for
depreciating the building and has a tax rate of 352.
6. The developer desires a time adjusted internal rate of return, after
tar, of 122 based upon the initial cash capital requirements of
$1,297,395.
7. The loan acquired by the developer was assumed to be $3,892,185.
8. It was assumed that there was no change in the interest rate of the
borrowed funds.
Given the above assumptions, the posture of the private sector under these
circumstances can be outlined as follows:
15
1. The total cash needed from equity investors is $1,297,395, and within
a three year period the 25% rehabilitation investment credit would
refund $935,546 of the original capital required.
2. The operating position of the developer shows rents collected per
year of $648,224 with a mortgage payment of $598,224 for a 25 year
period of time. In the first 25 years there would be a $50,000 cash
surplus.
3. The tax loss of the private sector, under these circumstances, would
begin at $55,748 per year and reduce down to -0- in the 15th year,
turning into a taxable profit for the remainder of the 50 years.
4. Since the 25 year mortgage would expire at the end of the 25th year,
the private developer would have a period of 25 years of total pure
cash flow income, which would be taxable to him at whatever tax rates
(35% assumed) were prevalent in his tax position at that time. r
5. At the end of the 50 year period, the lease would terminate with the
buildings reverting back to the City of Lodi without any reversionary
value being remitted to the developer.
The above set of hypothetical assumptions and positions indicate the type
of analysis that private industry w-auld most probably be using when viewing
this investment. During negotiations, there are at least five particular
directions which private industry might take to improve their 12% time
adjusted internal rate of return position.
1. They may try to negotiate a longer lease in order to increase the
period of time when they are receiving revenues.
2. At the end of the lease period, the private sector may desire a sale
back to the City at some nominal price.
3. The lease arrangements suggested by the private sector may include a
coat of living increase in the lease rents, perhaps tied to the con-
sumer price index.
4. The private sector may want to acquire the buildings at the present
time for a noAinal price such as $1.00.
5. The private sector may desire that certain operating expenses for
insurance and taxes be paid directly by the lessee.
a
Summary
Based on a hypothetical set of assumptions related to utilization of the
Community Center as well as the private sector's perspective, the estimated
time necessary for the Lodi Community Center to be self-sufficient is
approximately five or more years. In the interim period, the deficits
created by the Lodi Community Center are estimated to be $1,814,738, whicli
must be funded from sources other than the operations of the Lodi Community
Center.
It is entirely possible that during negotiations with the private sector,
the City of Lodi may meet with different investment perspectives and param-
ters than have been established by this hypothetical case, and the actual-
ity of these parameters could cause the deficit to either increase or
decrease depending upon the reality of the private sector's attitudes. It
is evident from the analysis that private industry tax benefits impact
heavily upon this project and essentially represent a reduction in the
financing costs for the project, which in itself indicates that a relation-
ship between City and private sector is indeed a most advantageous arrange-
ment for both the City of Lodi and private sector investors.

Transcript of Public Workshop 2, Lodi Community Center -- July 16, 1981
Mayor Good Afternoon, Citizens, Welcome to the Old Tokay Site. I'm Jim McCarty, supposed to
McCarty be a City Official, and was asked to break off work and be here today and mingle witlti the
citizens which I am delighted to do. I understand the room was just recently cleared from
the utilization by the Jazzercise class, and we would like everybody here to k ow in case you
don't know already. this particular structure is finding more members for our puTlic activities
all the time. Of course, that's exactly what we want. Somebody asked me to relate to the
group what the City Council is doing, how the City Council feels in regard to the project, and
of course I can't speak for the individual Councilmen, but I do conptrue from their dialogue
and their manifestations that they are firmly behind this project, and I commend the leaders
of the project for stalwarts, uh, swimming upstream, and for collecting additional supporters
almost every day as is evidenced by this outstanding group of citizens today. Of course the
City Council is behind this project - the activities that the Council is favorable towards
certainly is the presentation of dollars at almost every one of our Council meetings, and 1
don't know how many of you participants are familiar with the graph (block graph) that we have
recently posted in City Hall chambers, City Council chambers -- and that graph will remain
there, and if you hove seen it, or did see it on TV lost night the Committee has taken a
schematic drawing of the entire site and blocked off little squares approximately an inch by an
inch, and then as every $607.00 comes in, a square is filled in with yellow. It appears to me
that roughly about half of the available squares have been filled in, and that has been confirmed
by Mrs. Lang, in stating that some quarter of a million dollars has been received to date. I'll
tell you why that's a significant figure - the reason for that is that as you read sometimes we
may be on the fringe of a tax revolt, or certainly a meat resistance to additional taxes. That's
a fact. And while this event, or this resistance prevails, toe citizens of the City of Lodi think
enough about this project - I mean the big spenders and the liti!e spenders to fork over a quarter
of a million dollars in its behalf. Now that really shows me something. I'm not going to talk
any further, the Council is behind this, I'm behind it, you're behind it, and really that's all
it should take. I'll turn the mike over to the professionals now.
Lew Thank you, Mr. McCarty. I'd like to welcome you all here, we appreciate your attendance,
Bishop particularly in light that we did not have a totality of interest in our last meeting. That is one
of the reasons we have taken it upon ourselves to schedule the meeting at noon - so you can
grab a sandwich, sit bock and relax and kind of see what we :ire doing. I'm Lew Bishop of,
the spokesperson for the Lodi Design Group. With us here are five of the six of us, Bob Morris
is out of town. I would like to introduce Larry Wenell of Morris & Wenell Architects, Steve
Kikuchi of Dauber & Kikuchi Landscape Architects, Arlie Preszler of Preszler-Bishop Architects,
and somewhere in the -back -is Dwight Dauber. We all feel very up about this project. The
Community Center is a viable, workable project that has as its basis the interest of the
commut ity. The interest of the community means that by putting forth some effort, we can
have facilities that the City does not now have or anticipate in the future. As part of what we
are charged to do, we have developed another report, you know, any time a professional group
gets together one of the things you get out of it is a report. And so our report is here and there
are copies floating around - we would like to have you, if you like, review the report. There
are some interesting statistics from a couple of communities outside of our area we would like to
have you digest. Along with that, in order to keep you on schedule today, we would like to
24
arrange for a break about 1:00. For those of you who have to get back to the office, or back
to the shop, we'll have a short break, and those who wish to stay on and discuss it further,
we will be happy to do that. So, without too much further ado, I would like to bring you
up to date with what we, as the Lodi Design Group, have done to develop a program, a
Moster Plan program for the Lodi Community Center. In order to do that, I'm going to have
to refer to some notes because my memory doesn't work too well. After Public Workshop 1,
which occurred in May, our group got together and tried to decide what it was that we were
supposed to do. And what we were supposed to do was develop a program, not an architectural
program, not a planning program, not a financial program, but a basic program as to what does
a community center consist of as it relates to the City of Lodi. And that program is on the side
wall - we'll show you in a minute in slides. The bubble diagram that relates to some users, and
uses are defined by those people in the community who are interested in finding a place to
have their function, coming forth listing some objectives, listing some goals, and trying to
create a space in which they can operate. That program was carried forth, and we developed
three different alternative proposals of uses. If any of you were around or read the paper
after our first workshop, one of the things we did was to come up with seven basic steps to get
between then and September 7. Some of those steps were to remove certain buildings on the
site including the shower building on the east side of the gym, a few of the little buildings in
between the two shop buildings, and the foundation of the main structure. In addition to that,
we recommended that the City establish a watering policy along Hutchins Street to get the gross
back green, and a couple of other programs that the City has been very, uh the City Government
and the City staff have been very generous in their efforts in that behalf. I am sure that between
now and September you will all see an improvement in the external appearance of the si-tep and
we hope that that will continue. And without further ado, I would like to go on to a little
history of where we are with the slides, and just relax and kind of bear with me a little bit
and we'll open it up for questions and answers and comments a little bit later. Oh, I forgot
one other thing, thank you. I've got my pointer down here. Our time line is a bubble diagram
that describes what we were supposed to do, and forms the basis of our contract with the City
of Lodi. We are currently in that middle block there (Larry is pointing to it.) The middle
block seems to consist of the most work at this point. The middle block consisted of all the
design work that was necessary to came up with enough information so that people could either
get tumeel on or turned off toward the project. And some decisions could then be made. It is
our goal that after this meeting today we can define more closely what really constitutes the
community center and from here, develop the final Master Plan. So, we are in that middle
section now, we have gone through all of the information gathering stuff, and we are now going
to move on toward the final Master Plan. So where we are bringing you up to date on our
schedule. I think we have time enough we can switch the light off back there, John. The first
group of slides we have here are parts, and if you can't see, please maneuver yourselves around
a little bit so that you can. I realize our slides are up in the air a little bit. The first slide
and several others or,- statistic slides to show you what we saw when we first walked on the
site about six months ago. These are part of the background data we developed to see what
kind of shape the buildings were in, what kind of relationships existed, what kind of facilities
were available, that sort of thing. We are now walking around the north side of the property
and looking at the cafeteria building in the center of the picture. As you walk toward the
25
shops, you can see that some of the stuff, in fact one of the sections that you see we
recommended removal of is the small one story section between the two shop buildings.
This is the alley way between the wood shop and the girls' shower room. The girls'
shower room is one of the buildings we recommended removal of mainly because it sits
right in the middle of access ways and really doesn't fit any usable purpose. Back to the
front, you can see the foundation of the main building which imposes itself along Hutchins
Street, and you can also see that early in the spring the grass was green. In the courtyard
which some of you may not have been in for a while, it is a rather nice space, bound on
the south by the science building, on the west by the gym, on the east by the main building,
and on the north by the auditorium. And that space is not in too good a shape because no one
has been taking care of it. The trees, etc. are still in reasonably growing condition, but you
can see that do need some tender loving care. Back towards the
auditorium you can see at the door to t e gym is rather solid. The door has been busted into
about fourteen times since. The portico that connected the old main building to the auditorium
has been removed and there rather forlornly. This is the space between the
music building and the auditorium, and if anybody wants to verify it, they can turn around and
look out the window. It's a little bitty narrow space that provides light into some of the
classroom areas. This is the corridor between this building and the gym next door. One of
the porticos outside the back of the pool building. And here we come to our program. Our
program was slot of headbanging back and forth amongst us. We tried to develop interrelation-
ships that would exist if the program that we developed, use program that we developed, were
to be followed, which included spaces of approximately 15,000square feet for meetings,
approximately 7,500 square feet for arts and crafts, 30,000 square feet for concerts and museum
space, 2,000 feet of administrative space, and the most important thing, 316,000 square feet
of open space, and 18,500 square feet devoted to sports activities. Now if you total CH of
that up, our program would have consisted of approximately 73,000 squcre feet of space. And
by looking at what we have available in existing buildings on the site, this building that we're
in now is 13,630 square feet, the music building is 7,000 square feet, the auditorium, 17,000
feet, we currently have if you take off all those buildings and the gym of 20,000 feet, open
space of 383,000 square feet. So if we were to use the existing facilities, we would be almost
meeting our program square footage. Now when I say program square footage, these are
orbit rory numbers that we sat down and said, "If we had this many people they could be
accommodated in about so much space." And we arrived at that by going around and looking
at some other communities' facilities, looking at what is currently available in the City of Lodi,
and looking at what other communities have projected is their growth goal as to provide
facilities for their community. So, these rather dry statistics form themselves up into this
little relationship diagram you see on the board up here. Another thing that comes to mind
that we found that we didn't have is on indoor pool. That indoor pool stemmed out of trying
to provide a facility that could be used more frequently rather than less frequently. One of
the difficulties that we have had in trying to ascertain how the program is to be
was to arrive at spaces that can be useO by more people more often, and the more you can do
that the less it costs per person use. That is what was proven by our visit to Fairfield where
they have a community center that lost year accommodated some 143,000 people visits, and
that's alot of folks, all different ages from seniors to beginners to nursery kids, etc. So part
of our program was to develop square footages, relationships and having done that now, we'll
go on to what we elected to do, and that is to develop t'.ree separate, distinct scenarios as
26
eJ....u..:......w���....��..�..�..rm..w.ux...+ur.a�..:r�:���u�.... .. ... ,. .......... .�....., .. �. ....... .. ... ... �aw.�.�. ...�..•.:i-...,.:.v�..•t'an•Y�v:.r,+:.N•I.Ii.rtYf�XwYavv.14.':s.N�Ffr.hWn`c�n9+�R•"NNiMR9�'
to now we might best use the facility. And the first one we said was, 'What happens if we
leave most of the buildings on the site?" I say most, because some of the buildings have to
be removed because they're ivst uneconomic to rebuild or to replace or to repair. Unfortunately
the facilities have gone down substantially in the last couple of years, and the more they are
left unused, the more they go downhill. So,ousee a first floor program keeping,
these are strictly arbitrary ideas, not concrete inthe g;ound, folks, the cafeteria building,
music building, auditorium, the two gymnasiums and the pool, and removing everything
else from the site. The building consists of this facility being opened up so that the kitchen
that is presently here can be used by removing a wall that the screen is on and opening up
into the shower room that's on the other side, and renovating that and attaching that to the
wrestling room that is along side of it. Those three rooms can accommodate a sit down dinner
of approximately 550 people, pretty nice, sight lines are pretty good and there are not too
many facilities in the City of Lodi, not spoken for frequently that ore available that would
accommodate that many people. But at the some time we can divide it up into three sinal ler
rooms that accommodate from 130 to 230 people. The little squared up area in between is
called a connector, and that connector is the device that we can use to attach all these
buildings so that they ore usable and secureable. So anyone walking in the front door can
then traverse the area and go to whatever facility he wanted to go to. Along side, taking
the boys' gymnasium which is right to the south of us, and connecting it to this building, we
can create another multi purpose space that is suitable for about 360 people at a sit down
dinner, approximately 500 for a meeting, or a good game of basketball. And that is one
of the things we have found lacking in the City, facilities to play basketball, volleyball,
and other indoor wintertime -type games. So in renovating that into a multi-purpose space,
and then keeping the girls' gymnasium as a gymnasium space, we actually have sports
facilities indoors. In between it, of course, is the pool and what do you do with a pool?
Well, the pool is outdoors now and can't be used clot, but if you put a roof on it, it's
indoors, and indoors means you can use it in the evening, use it in the wintertime, you can
use it all those times when you would like to have a swim and cannot because there aren't
any facilities. So that's one of the niceties that comes out. In our investigation of what's
here, the structure of the pool appears to be very sound and that basically cosmetics and
mechanical stuff could be repaired and the pool put back into operation. To the east side,
of course, is the auditorium. The auditorium is a rather nice facility. It currently has seats
for 999 people. If you take the audkorium and bring it up to current standards structurally,
and revise the seating in the balcony, you would end up with the ability to seat approximately
880 people. Those 880 people could be divided into some smaller spaces by. sound absorbent -type
partitions that could be installed in front of the balcony so that you'd have a legitimate little
mini -theater of about 330 seats. Or you could have the whole downstairs at about 650 seats
or the whole facility at about 880 seats. So the big thing here is to provide sit down space
that people can use for sit down purposes. Going through all the various facilities that we did,
we found out that putting down and taking up takes clot of dollars, and so if you can define
spaces that are usable for functions that do ,at need to be opposite each other you save clot of
operational expense. Just to the north of the auditorium is the music building, and you say what
do you use a music building for? Well, use it for music. There is a very straight forward solution
to that problem to put the facility back in use. And if that is put back in use, we have music
groups that Flo not have a home now, and on the second floor of that building are the old art
rooms, and the Art Center people we know are looking for some space on a long tern basis.
27
There are olot of other things going on that can be handled on a short term, but the long tern
means that we need to have a cultural type facility, and in the Community we don't have
that now. So this is the basic cor:cept of the building program for Scheme h.
And to the left of that as you view it, is the site plan which addresses itself to getting carrs on
and off the site, getting people on and off the site, and that sort of thing. Starting at the
south end , you can see that off Walnut Street we have a rather commodious parking lot, and
on the north side we have another nice sized parking lot that wiII accommodate totally obout
290 cars. 290 cars isn't a whole lot, but when you odd those to the 210 on street car spaces
that are around the property, we figure we can accommodate gout 550 or so'cars. That's
enough cars to take core of groups up to a couple thousand people. So that means our
facility, if we were to use this particular program, would be a very viable facility. Now we
still have a rather large game area, other re:reational space off Rose Street, and we still
hove a lovely good sized community plaza where outdoor facilities, flag raisings and
that kind of activity can happen. On the right now as you see up there is a proposal that we
have developed where you see what the outside of that project would look like from Hutchins
Street. What we have done -- on each of the three programs, 1 will move along rather quickly
now, time is fleeting, you can get a little idea of what we have an idea for on top of the
pool. If you put a glass roof on there, it could really be attractive from looking down Walnut
east .
Here we move along to Scheme N%. .., .icheme #2 we said if we only took the really good shape
buildings that are left on the site and built a new multi-purpose facility in between, what would
it look lice? And so we kept the cafeteria building, using the some basic program, and we took
the pool and put the some basic program on that, and in between the two developed o building
that would accommodate our use program. That building being multi -functional space with a
stage and as an adjunct to that art and craft facilities, open space, offices, administrative area,
waiting roam, conference room, a few other attractive useful spaces. This type of program we
did in order to find out approximately what the costs would be at various kinds of development
programs. On the left again, you see what we came up with for another site program. This
site addresses itself differently to the streets in that there is a more focal entry to this particular
project. We were able to develop a more focal arrival place, a little more gentility to the
walkways, a little more green space on the northeast corner. All of these schemes are ideas,
and as ideas each can be interposed upon the other. So there are bits and parts that you can
take from one place and put them on another place. If you like a particular idea one place
and you say, "Gee, I like that, but I like the other ?" those are the kinds of things we hod
hoped to elicit your comments about as we get further along. On the right again, another
proposal for an elevation. Again, we tried to develop a more residential character, a more
down home kind of attitude towards the building.
Here we cor..e to Scheme #3. We said, "For Scheme +t 3, what would we do if we would just
level the site and start over again?" This gives us an opportunity to locate the building in a
more appropriate Location, create the parking lots in a more appropriate location, and you see
that they all kind of tend to relate to each other because if you try to solve the program which
is what we are trying to do, the program imposes itself on , so this program
addresses itself to a single structure that has in it the some kind of fa ci ities, the multi-purpose
room, the gym -theater combination, the meeting rooms around the sic'e, the kitchen facilities,
storage, indoor pool and art facilities on your left, with access out to the playing field in back.

So each of these programs we took and developed some basic concepts of cost:
We'll go back, and if you can remember Scheme Number 1, that was preserving
most of the buildings on the site that we estimate would cost approximately
S4, 676,165.00 give or take a little bit. The second scheme, which was saving
two structures and building new in the middle was $5,504,000. And the third
scheme, which is all new, approximately $6,300,000. These numbers, of course,
are very rough at this point, but we will be defining those numbers a little more
closely by the time our final Master Plan is in. The costs all work themvilves into
a hol3 that says how do we pay for it? And as professionals, we are not �-eoIly
responsible for the problem of how to fund it, but we have taken upon ourselves
the desire to provide some alternative types of operational funding, if you will, of
how this project will get off the. ground. We are going to finalize those arrangements,
but one of the schemes that tames to mind is that the City would sell the property to
a group of investors and the group of investors would improve it to City standards, and
lease it back to the City. Thco's one of the thoughts. Another thought is that the
City retain the land and buildings and hires out the renovation both as in kind service
and a little investment from the capital. There are a number of different possibilities
that we're going to look at as to how to get this thing implemented, and if all the
groups and all the people of the City of Lodi would get behind it and push it, I'm sure
that we as professionals would provide you the facility that would do the job to meet
the program. I'm going to look at my guys and see if I have missed anything. OK,
I've taken up enough time talking about things, and would like to invite your comments
and opinions, questions, etc. , but if you would - we hod a little difficulty with
trying to get everybody on tape the last time so we could remember what they said.
So, if you would be so kind as to come up and use the mike if you have clot of comments,
we would sure appreciate it.
Art I just wanted to ask a question. Where will these drawings and literature about these
plans be available to the community so that we can kind of take our time with it?
Lew We're going to provide this information to City Council, and I would hope that between
City Council and the press and the other committees in town, besides being here today,
people can get it. If that's not sufficient time, they'll see me, and we'll certainly
try to make arrangements so we can take care of their questions on a long term basis.
We would certainly be happy to put a copy in the library - I think that would be very
appropriate. I see that I can't be heard - where did the mike go? We have to hand
the mike back and forth, Steve. I realize that it's kind of tough to get a microphone up,
people don't want to talk into a microphone, but we really would like to hear any
comments that you might have, any groups that would like to respond, members of the
Community Development Committee are here. Dr. Frank, do you have any questions
you want to ask ?
Frank Not today.
Johnson
Lew Dr. Bergantz?
29
r.
t
Dr. I do want to ask, "Is there any time schedule so for as goals more or less
Bergontz inflation and our economic situation, etc. I
think we need to establish some kind of goal. Number 2, have you investigated the
impact of traffic problems as for as parking off street, etc. Number 3, have you gone
into very much detail to establish exact engineering costs of restoring these buildings?
That's all I have to say.
Lew Let's see if 1 can remember those in order. I think I'll take the third one first. Oh, the
first one is the time limit. The only time limit that we have working at the norment is
to get the Master Plan done by September 7. That we have to get done. That's our
responsibility, and I think it's the responsibility of the community to assure that that
happens, and that there be a favorable response at ',hat time. Once that occurs, then
I think some definitive time limits can be established. i think the City Council
particularly kas directed us that they will do so. They will take our Master Plain and
do something with it. Number 2, did we study the on and off street parking? We did
stt,idy it, but without a definitive program, we couldn't get really tight about it. We
can estimate about how many people would use the facility, and we have done that.
And we have addressed that problem in about 500 cars availability on and off site.
However, if someone wants to change the program, then we only accommodate that
many can. Number 3, structural considerations. The estimates mode are architectural
estimates, not structural estimates, although we have taken into account how much it
would cost to renovate the buildings. We have not a detailed analysis of the exact
structural costs to do the work, again, because if you go off without a program, you
know, a finalized program, you can't really determine exactly how much each event
is going to We have in the report, estimates on the per square foot
cost, that'serway the thing was estimated, the per square foot cost of how much
each of the various buildings would cost. If you would like a breakdown of that, you
can grab one of the yellow reports.
Ben Yes, I'm Ben Schaffer, and I would think that all of you would join me here in thanking
Schaffer this professionol group, or group of professionals, whatever you want to be called here,
for coming up with some real fine clternot;ves and designs. I am particularly pleased
because I think that gives us an opportunity, of course, to accept any of the alternatives.
I happen to be one that likes (the tape side I I ended at this point, but Mr. Schaffer
was still giving his address) Tape 12 begins: they were using it at the present. I would
also remind the group that thank you Mayor Jim being with us today, that maybe in the
future we would have someone like Mr. Micke or somebody that might come forward and
be willing to say, leave a grant to us to actually complete the entire project. This is
always a possibility, but I do believe that this group thanks you and we appreciate that
and I believe the community will come forward to support one of the alternatives when
we get to it. And I certainly support Number 1.
Lew Following applause for Mr. Schaffer's statements. OK. Thank you, Mr. Schaffer.
We would like to illicit, you know, you don't just have to sit back, we're not
trying to be formal or anything like that, but we really would like to have your
commentary. I realize we have a microphone, but please don't hesitate. If you don't,
I'll feel like we've really done our job •- we've answered all your questions beforehand.
Lady (Apparently this person was out of microphone range, I cannot understand what she said.)

l
Lew I would answer your question about what we are doing about the other buildings
by saying that in our Master Plan these buildings meet the needs of what we
have been able to ascertain as the program. The other buildings do not, and the
costs are so exhorbitant to repair some of the buildings that it is unwise economically
to spend the money to restore mare facilities than is really useful. So what we did
was say the ultimate program would remove those facilities from the site. There is
also a parking program. If we don't have parking, then we don't have a usable
center. The other thing is that Scheme No. 1 addresses itself to the time schedule
of how you can build this thing more directly than the other schemes. You con
back into the program by fixing a little at a time and having faciiities that con be
used without destroying the whole site. So, some of those buildings may remain in
use as temporary use structures for a considerable period of time and not be removed.
What gout the parking lot across the street? Who owns that? (Lew) The parking
Elise lot across the street is owned by a private ind;vidual. So that's not a possibility as for
Forbes as parking for this facility. (Lew) I'm sure if someone wanted to buy it and give it
we'd certainly use it fat parking. That's a dollars and cents problem. The school
sold that before any t7onsoction took place. That property was gone. (Elise) Not
knowing what the cost of purchase would be would that be something that should be
considered in the total package for the community center? Parking in the
neighborhood when the high school was here, was bad.
Lew In our estimates of how many cars would be required in order to address your parking
problem, we tried to provide for a number of cars on site without using the street
parking for most functions, and the on street parking would probably only be used
during a really big evening concert or a big weekend gathering, that sort of thing.
But we know there is a parking problem, and addressing that parking problem is of
course addressing the program. And we can always provide more cars at the cost
of some green space. So we have all kinds of alternatives to consider.
Charlie Yeah, I'm Charlie Cooper. 1 have just looked at this book now, and the information
Cooper might be in it. I would like to have a comparison or' Numbers 1, 2 and 3 of square
foot price. In other words, Number 3 is bound to be much higher because you're
cy,)ing to completely level the lot and rebuild. Number 1, you're going to use as
mo, --y buildings as feasible to use. If this is on a page, refer me to it. If not, I would
like have it brought out now.
Lew It is contained in the report, Charlie. The pages aren't numbered unfortunately, it
was rather hurriedly put together by the printer this morning. But I would relate to
you some square footage costs that we have estimated that each of these buildings
would cost. If you take Scheme 1, we originally estimated as part of our first
workshop a cost of $1,531,250.00, to renovate structurally, accoustically, mechanically,
and electrically the auditorium. There are several functions in there that need to be
basically rebuilt, including the stage and balcony, but there are clot of parts of that
building that are still pretty much useful. That relates back to about $1700.00 a seat
approximately if you want a number that you can relate to. The music building we
31
I j \
originally estimated as costing about $330.00 to renovate. Pardon me? You said
S330.00, but it's 330,000? $332,880.00 to be more specific. That would include
reglazing, whatever renovation work inside as for as bringing toilets up to code, that
sort of thing, access ways, and the roof needs to be repaired. The gyms and the pool
is a major expense, and we have $966,035.00 as our estimate to -enovate, restructure,
and put those facilities back into useful condition. The cafeteria: This building, to
remove the walls, put the folding partitions in and do the other renovation work, new
roof and other things that it needs, is approximately 14,000 square feet. We have
allowed $15.00 a square foot to do that work. That's pretty good, because there's
slot of in here that doesn't need any work. The new lobbies, etc. - that's
the new connector device that connects everything together, provides for elevator to
get handicapped people up and down and that sort of thing, we've allocated 5496,000.00
for 6200 square feet or $80.00 a square foot to build. The site development which is a
major expense, parking lots, landscaping, sprinkler systems, walkways, pergolas, all
that kind of thing that's going to take to put the site in good shape, approximately
S 1,100, 000. 00. Thot's about 53.00 a foot.
Ben Lew, what kind of square footage would that Number 1 give us then if we did what you
Schaffer? just said?
Lew That total square footage is approximately 73,000 square feet, I believe. 73,000 square
feet of usable indoor space. Scheme Number 2, which is the one using the cafeteria
and the pool and the new.focility inside of it, again u-.ing the 14,000 square feet of
the cafeteria at $15.00, 4,000 square feet of pool building at 545.00 which is to
build a roof on it and do a little refurbishing there, to build a theater and gym, our
estimate is it would be 27,700 square feet at $125.00 a square foot, which in today's
economy is not a whole lot of money. That's not a really grandious, fancy building,
but it's one that's durable and would hold up. Offices and other facilities of that sort
6,400 square feet at 580.00, and the site development again at about a million one.
Ben H •)w many square feet would that provide?
Lew I think that's about 54,000 square feet. It would be less square footage, and cost
more money. Scheme Number 3, which means you level the site, and don't have any
use - you build u new facility when you have the money, we have 11,500 square feet
of offices and administration space at 570.00, or $810,000.00. A theoter-gym-multi
purpose, 24,309 square feet at $125.00 again, or $3,038,000.00. Indoor pool and
t' owers in that facility, about $891,000.00, or 9900 square feet at 590.00. Kitchen
and service facilities, 3285 square feet at 5150.00 a foot, 5492,750.00. Again, the
site development at a million one. That would give u: the same approximate 54,000
square feet of closed space. The totals again in accurate numbers, 54,676, 165.00 for
Scheme Number 1, 55,504,500.00 for Scheme Number 2, $6,372,485.00 for Scheme
Number 3. That's about where we ore. It is now 1:00 according to my watch.
Dr. Lew, before we leave, I feel it is important that I knowhe'snot speaking perhaps for
Bergantz the Council, but as for as leadership is concerned, and maybe looking down the
road, and speaking as an individual, I would like to hear from our Mayor McCarty
on his appraisal. I don't want to put him on the spot, but 1 feel that we do need to
32
develop some kind of leadership, and some kind of decision very soon, and I fee I
it's very important. Alot of people are very interested, it's a big deed, and 1 feel
we can do it. But I think we should work together.
Lew Do you want to address that, Mr. McCarty ?
Mayor Briefly. 1 had a situation like this happen at the Council meeting last night, and
I generally look around for the City Manager and say, "HELP I" The City Manager
has joined us, so I'm glodyou're here, Hank. But, l will say this, that the City
Council has backed the purchase, and as you know, Dr., you and I and Sheri Mallory,
and other people here diligently met for some seventeen faithful Tuesdays and worked
up our feasobility studies, had them computerized working with profess.:.% at UO P,
and since the Council has popped for the initial purchase price and we've done some
moving of fences, we made two or three allocations to this particular building,
seriously considered another $20,000 or $30,000 of expenditure to try to make the
site vandal proof, and we've usually withdrawn when it came to buying alp that
pl,�wood. I realize that hod we done so, we might have preserved the in'.egrity of
the science building, although for some reason it's been a real heavy tartlet of the
vandals. I just have to construct from that that they didn't care for the scs:nce
courses, but ... eh, and the Council following that has come up with some $58,000.00
to subsidize the study, and 1 know our professional group has thrown in alot of time and
effort on their part. What I am saying is we realize the amount of money we appropriated
would not be nearly sufficient if we were dealing with say, out of town professionals
and we certainly appreciate it, I would Puce to echo Ben Schaffer's appreciation to
the group - we shall never forget your endeavors. And that goes for Mr. Cooper and
many other people. But the main thrust in this last major allocation of $58,000 and a
thrust that many people forget is that this study is basic and your input, she citizen's
input is basic, and we're conducting even today an informal type public hearing and
that's why it was so important to transcribe the statements because these statements
will be incorporated in the report. These reports then will be used by grants persons,
or persons professional in the grant field to go out for the funds that may partly or
fully fund our project. So this last 558,0OD was a must, it had to be done, and our
final step hopefully we'll be able to go out after'the big bucks. I cannot speak at all .
about any money coming out of the City general fund. I would doubt any great source
from that area, because we're going to be fighting to maintain and sustain our vital
basic services. You all agree they ore vital and necessary. We hope that you answer
the program we are in the middle of, that we will entertain some hern!y money from
some area. We're certainly going in the right way. I hope I haven't circled your
question too much, Dr.
Lew We have some more comments - for you who wish to leave at this time, don't hesitate,
it's OK.
Charlie The thing I wanted to ask is that the way I look here, Number 1 is going to cost per
square footage about half of what Number 3 is. (Lew) Approximately 60% when it's
all lone. Yes. Then I would like to go on record of also supporting Number 1.
Lew Good. Thank you, sir.
33
I would just like to say that I'm also speaking for those of us who are trying to
Alice make? the little bucks as well as the big bucks. We're su orting with Ruby
Mason our fire ergine raffle , but not or i are we doing that to seW ra fle tickets, but we
would like to support But we're trying to gamin
friends for the Community Center so that everyone in town by buyine one raffle
ticket will be a friend of the Community Center. Voice faded.
Lew I do have to say thank you to the City staff members who have supported us in our
efforts to get information, the City staff and other people who have supported the
programs of the foundation, and the foundation people particularly along with the
community development committeewho have been very instrumental in trying to
get the program finished up. It's rea y wonderful. 1n case you dont remember,
Field and Fair Day is our final nal workshop, and that's September 7. Yes, sir?
Gentleman It seems to me that the number 1 plan certainly gives more meeting places usabl a in
the some hour when you have one that has to be scheduled for Tuesday of this week
. Number 1 gives more meeting places for the
some hour, some time than the others.
Lew I appreciate your comments. That was one of the things that we were able to do
when you use an existing building. You have slot to play with that you don't have
when you are building from scratch.
Lady What exactly happens between now and September 7?
Lew The comments of this group plus any other comments that came to us over the next
few weeks or so will be incorporated into a final master pion which may have no
less than oil three programs that we have up there, so for supporting our design
number 1, or our program number 1. What we propose to do with that is to take any
adverse comment that you might have or additive comments you might have and put
them forth into that program and develop a final master plan that comes up on Field
and Fair Day. That would be the thing that we would promote to the Council, and
that's what we'd hang our hat on for dollars and sense.
Lew Sir ?
Ben I'd like to have you comment briefly, I know my good friend Charlie Cooper, o
Schaffer graduate of 1938 hiqh school here is going to do something for you when we grt down
to the final plan. Would you comment on that?
Lew Yes. Charlie has very graciously donated a scale architectural model of the entire
site in its final form for Field and Fair Day, so you will not only be able to it in
two dimensions, but in three dimensions as well. So, whatever the final program
is, Charlie has donated that for us.
Charlie That's only six weeks away.
Lew I know that -- I wondered why you were here J We're aware of that. Any other
comments? We certainly appreciate your attending. Before we began today, three
34
r-�
gentlemen from the VFW were here with some comments they have, and we appreciate
that information. Both on and off the record comments will be taken into consideration.
We do appreciate anything that you might give us in the way of information. That's
the only way we can best serve you. That's our job. If not, I will say we've done
our job, and we're about fifteen minutes early. Thank you all.

WORKSHOP 2 REPORT
July 16, 1981
LODI COMMUNITY CENTER
Introduction: Workshop 11 Report
Subsequent to Public Workshop 1, the Lodi Design Group has looked at the basic
question: "What really constitutes a Community Center as applied to the City of
Lodi?" As viewed from the perspective of the participants in the workshop, the
Community Center would be the filler of a major facility void. The City presently
has many usable facilities includin] Lodi Lake and the other parks, meeting roams
for very small groups and in conjuAction with LUSD, a total of three outdoor swimming
pools. We have identified the following uses as not being fully met either by the
private sector or the City: Auditorium facilities, gymnasium spaces, indoor all-weather
swimming facilities, meeting and convention rooms, music practice and performance
spaces, community art workshop and display spaces, and administrative spaces to
:-perate the facilities. In addition to the above, the unique location and size of the
proposed site make it very important to preserve as a usable open space.
In order to examine the above program parameters from an architectural and planning
point of view, the Lodi Design Group has elected to pursue three alternative proposals.
At Workshop II, we will resolve community input and proceed with a final Master Fgcn
document which may include parts of the schemes presented plus additional components
as derived from community participation. The three schemes to be presented were chosen
due to their fairly clear cut nature. The restoration schemes appear at this time to be
less expensive and would allow a reasonable and phased development schedule.
Everyone has expressed concern about the funds necessary both for construction and
operations. We have spent considerable effort to research the costs of maintenance
and operation. Enclosed is information obtained from the Cities of Davis and Fairfield
outlining the programs, costs, etc, of their Community Centers. A most interesting
aspect of our research has been the numbers of people served and the diverse range of
uses provided. In addition, we have included estimatas of costs for each of the three
program solutions. The greatest hurdle to the development will be funding. The costs.
of Schemes 1 and 2 can be tempereJ by extending the time line in a manner which will
allow a total development over perhaps a fifteen year schedule. We have also looked at
funding approaches from the private sector. Many possibilities exist, but will require more
hours of effort.
Many thanks need to be expressed to the staff of the City of Lodi for their assistance and
support in the collection and assembly of our data, and the dissemination of this infonno-
tion to the community.

Transcription of tape recng from Public Hearing for Lodi C ----unity Center/LUHS Site
May 26, 198 1.
Mrs. Violet Stenson:
A community center is very much needed by the people of Lodi. The cafeteria could be
used weekly by the members of Soroptimist International of Lodi and by the member of the
Professional Womens Club monthly. Both organizations would need to hire a caterer to
prepare their meals. No doubt other local clubs would also benefit from the use of this
facility. This is a'present need that is not now being met because of the prohibitive rent
that is being requested. Lodi needs many more cultural programs than is now possible . We
should have a building where plays, ballet, symphonies and Lectures could be presented to
the public. To pay for the use of these buildings, it might be possible to renovate one of
the present buildings so that it could be rented as off'ces. Some of the money collected
from the rent might be used to pay for utilities and janitorial services in all of the other
buildings, thus allowing the public to use the cafeteria and auditorium with either a very
minimal fee or with no fee .for those who carry liability insurance.
In your presentation, your statement that they don't meet earthquake requirements -- there
Dr. Frank are several, but the one that caused the abandonment of this area was the Field Act. But
Johnson these buildings don't have to meet field act requirements to be used for the public, but go
ahead with the discussion.
Lew OK, Frank had-askedme that question, and I will try to respond as best I know it. The
Field Act required that the buildings occupied for school purposes meet certain criteria as
to earthquake safety. Arlie is probably more aware of that than any of us, because he was
responsible for some of the investigations in and around Lodi. The Field Act removed these
buildingt.ot behV usable without extensive amounts of work. However, the Code to which-
was referring- is a current 'UBC -1979 edition, which is enforced by the City of Lodi; As part
of our research to date, we have discovered that there is a State Historic Building: Code and
a new code that has been developed by the City of Los Angeles for uses on projects such as
this where buildings do have saute reasonable historic significance. Part of what we are
proposing to City Council between now and the next work shop would be the looking upon
those two pieces of information as possible ordinances in the City of Lodi that we might be
able to have the opportunity to use those codes to work with rather than the more stringent
UBC -- but that is just o possibility and one of the things that we have been looking at.
The Field Act is not one of the things we have to comply with. Is that correct, Arlie?
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Arlie That's correct, Lew. 1 think that the Field Act simply said that you have to abandon these
buildings for school purposes. However, the eorthquok-- standards of the Field Act are..
almost identical to the earthquake standards of the UBC. As for as the standards are concerned,
there are minor differences but they are basically the some.
Lew Basically, the act that was just adopted by the City of Los Angeles particularly only directs
itself to how you have volues.of structure that you can use and the technology of that is a
rather long involved process that if anybody is interested I won't bore you with the details
but if you or, interested you can stop by the office or give any of us a call. It does allow
certain values to be placed on archaic material (old existing).

Fred As one of the people J. we're interested in the use of this
bvi{ding behind us. It Is a post a i Act ing. There are some rehearsals that we could
better do here _than any other school. Now this is one of the purposes we have for this space.
• 1 have o "group that meets every Monday night, and we need a hone. We would like this
very much. But what I am concerned`cbout is the cost of this whole thing. Knowing how this
town is, how much did we plan in the budget to start this thing?
Lew Wei i, unfortunately, we are not to that point quite yet. The reason being that we haven't
figured out what the heck it is we're going to do
Fred I think that's what we have to do - decide what we want to keep of this thing before we
start worrying about fixing the shops and probably what we're going to tear down.
Lew _That's why we're here and that's why we want to get your input. If you have the use for a
bonding, or ifyou don't have a use for another building, those are the kinds of things we
need to isolate and direct ourselves towards.
Fred In other words, I think we have to decide what are we going to try to accomplish with this
® place here, before we worry about "fixinotthe pool. We have two large pools, one is going
to cost us alot of money to put in shape.
Lew That's right, and what we're charged -with between now and the next workshop is to Isolate -
those uses that people like yourself you have a use for the music building, that's great.
We have a number of other uses for the music building just as well, and that may mean that
i that building requires more effort than -other. buildings orf the site, or maybe it's the only -
building -- 1 don't know, when we get ctl done with it. The cafeteria is In use now, so
it's illogical to presume to tear it down.
That brings to mind a question if we get this going and everything works out, suppose the
• Alice school decides to have a play and we refurbished the auditorium or one of the other buildings.
Mason Then what happens with this Field Act? That is, you know, the old statement that we have
the Field Act and all of that then if we didn't have to comply to that we would be complying
to other regulations, etc. For public use, non school use, does that keep the schowis from
using this at any time at al I?
•
Murphy What that will do, Carol, is if the buildings were just renovated -- let's say OK if everything
was fine as they are, everything was all right, no you could not use than:. tsbw if they're
brought up to current buildings codes, the roofs are fixed, everything is fixed up, then I'm
almost sure there's no problem. Maybe, you know onyihing on this possibly. They can use
• them as long as they comply with current building codes. As long as they are brought up to
existing today's codes.
Alice in that regard, the Field Act then has no longer any effect onus.
• Murphy As long as they meet current codes.

Arlie I talked to our Architect's organization and have been working a Uniform State Code
and this is going to happen and whereas right now I think it's Title 24 that has the structure
or have I got the wrong title? (Bob Morris, Title 21) Title 21 that has all the structurarl
data. Now If you read paragraph for paragraph, line for tine, word for word and go over
to the UBC it's the same word for word, Fine for line. And what is happening is that thre
Title 21 is now going to by reference adopt the UBC. So then they will be virtually and
exactly the some thing. So if the building is made to comply with the UBC, it also cornpiies
with the standards for schools.
4lice And then the Field Act would be out of our vocabulary fora while.
Arlie Well, you see, the Field Act didn't designate any standards. The Field Act simply said!
that if it didn't comply with Title 21 of the State Administrative Code that it couldn't
be occupied by students. And Title 21 has the structural standards.
Lew OK, now that go" -on to the next point that the UBC then recognizes the State Historic
Building Code as a viable entity within its context. And we hope the L. A. Code Is_,also
adopted in there because that's the one that establishes values and reasons for doing things
that are appropriate to the age of the structure.
Trudy I have a comment to make. My name is Trudy Geiszler, and 1 was born and raised in Lodi
ssisz-ler and my parents grew up in Lodi, and I went to the old- - i don't know -if any of you know
the old brick church that used to be across from Longs - and across from there I remember
when I was growing. up they used to have a recreation center at-thaold fire station, and
that didn't last very long. I get emotional because this is really important to me to have an
area for teens and elderly people to .go to. And 1 _know thit isr.idiculout, I have tears because
I'm kind of a romantic and I see that you get into cost and 1-'m not -much of o taxpayer yet and
so I don't really know what that's go=ng to feel like when t get to that point. But, it's
Iike this can't be replaced ...............too many tears.
N
Lew We can understand your feelings. A lot of us have hoo similar feelings as we went through C
'he building and saw the destruction and the feelings of despair as taxpayers and our money
going down the tubes, and people not caring -- kids not coring, and it can't be replaced.
It's one of those things that cannot, whether it's al I removed and made a gross field, it's
the last open space in down town, and it does have some very intrinsic value in that regard.
We appreciate your comments.
Lady Has any consideration been made for putting the swimming pool into operation as an added
source of income?
Lew As a matter of fact, we have. We find, that all the swimming pools in Lodi lose money.
Laugh, Lough -- not just some -- all the pools in Lodi lose money, some of them substantially.
All of them cost more to run than they bring in. It's unfortunate, but that's true.
Lady Maybe we can come up with new ideas that wouldn't .
Lew Well, that's a good idea, you know. There are clot of possibilities. One of the interesting t
parts of working on the job is that there are just infinite possibilities. All you have to do is
let your mind wander and you keep coming bock to the some fact -- you need clot of time ind
alot of money. Hopefully, with ingenuity we can reduce the amount of each, but again, it
may mean that port of the site has to go away and be turned to do some other duty in order to
mace the rest of the site viable. t
7
Lady What about senior citizen housing - what possibilities lie there for the elderly housing?
Lew It was brought up that one of the thoughts that we should look at between now and the
next workshop would be to develop a portion of the site for housing the elderly. There
are some viable programs that exist now -- my mother just moved out of one not too long
ago back in South Dakota, and it was sponsored by the local governmental agency, but
was funded by private dollars, and it worked out pretty well, and that may be one of
the computable uses that you see up here, and we'll be looking at that between now and
the next workshop.
Lady So you're saying that part of the site might be funded by private money?
Lew it's very possible, it's very possible.
Don I think I probably should preface my remarks by saying that 1 do not represent the official
uther land representative of Lodi School District tonight It's hard not to
get a little nostalgic, but about all I condo is re -en ofrce�w at obviously has already been
determined - we do and desperately need some good music facilities. Several years ago we
had a very active summer recreation music program in the District -- when summer school
came into -being, that sort of took care of that. When zsummer school was gone as one might
think they might reinstitute that program. In summer, we used to have as many cs 300 students
involved in some music program that Iosted for a month, the lost two weeks in July, and two
weeks In August. This would be a neat place to do this -again. Obviously we need -a good
community auditorium - we don't have this as you well know. t'm rather surprised that we
don't have a representative from the Lodi Community Concert Association here tonight.
Lew They were here earlier.
Don They were here? OK. We are vitally interested in some kind of auditorium. You know
® the generosity and graciousness of the Adventist Academy letting us use their facility which
is really neat but we need an auditorium. The School District does not have one per say,
the new auditorium at Tokay High School in Halsey Complex is neat for instruction purposes,
but seats 184 people and really doesn't do much for a concert type of thing. So we ore
running into problems, too. Al l I can do is reiterate the fact that we con well use these types
• of facilities if they were made available to us.
Fred I would like to ask one question. Have we ever done some type of cost what it's
going to cost to make this thing (some -coughed into the mi
or tear it down and start all over.
•
Lew Yes, sir, two of them as a matter of fact. There was a report down by an architectural firm
named Froncheske and Schreider in 1978 - let's see if I con find it here - who estimated at
that time that to rehabilitate the auditorium would cost $1,225,000.00 and updated to current
standards would probably cost about $1,530,000.00, and if you were to build a new facility
of equivalent size and capacity, would probably cost somewhere in the range of around
$2,100,000.00. Those ore figures that are real life figures, you know, those are dollars
and cents. If you were to consider building a new auditorium, the building is about 18,000
square feet, and it really, with a !ittle bit of help, would be a pretty adequate facility. It
would seat probably around 800 or 850.
n
47
N
Fred Has anybody thoughthow large an audience we could get at this particular time?
Lew Approximately 850.
Fred Yeah, this is what it will hold.
Lew That is correct.
Fred All right, now, how much con we draw? (Lew, Oh, OK, that's.........) You see what
I mean? (Marilyn Bishop transcribing "I can't understand what Fred said in the next two
sentences.") They tell me this last year they've had some problems.
Lew The Community Concert Association Representatives said that they cu.. en! draw about 1300.
They have about 1300 members.
Fred Then they would probably have to go to two performances with an 800 hall.
Lew That's correct. But again, if you are looking at what's available in the area, Atherton Audit.
seats 1452. The theater at New Tokay seats 184. I think they get that many in Pine A i ley
Theater, l'm not sure. This facility right now has 499 seats., although about .as new .cm Larry
and -1- can count, we have sat in most of them, and there are about 200 of them that just do
not have very good sight nines. You are up so for in the.back that you can't sea- out over the
ceiling and underneath the balcony about the lost seven rows you can't see the stage, the full
stage=..
Fred Most of our audiences are not that big.
Murphy I think, also, Lew, if I'm not mistaken, in the lower level due to also fire codes, there would
have to be one row -- or two rows -- taken out?
Lew Two, but that's considering the exit conditions.
Man i don't represent the Community Concert Association, but I con you my wife if very much
active in the thing. They are having a meeting tonight for a nominating committee, and
Mr. Wrench was here earlier. He has gone to the meeting. 1 think your figure of 1300
people is optimistic, at least they were trying hardto get 1000. 1 don't think they
succeeded. There is this competition for the dollar and i think our membership is under
1000.
Low Where are they currently having their concerts?
Man Over at the Seventh Day Adventist Academy. They call it the gymnasium. It works, but
it's not the best. Some people have signed otf because they refuse to go over there.
Murphy I know recently in Stockton this post spring when Burl Ives was at Atherton Theater they ended
upgoing into two or three performances because they outsold and both nights were fil led. So
it doesn't mean we can't have something similar here in the City of Lodi.
Lady 1'd like to say something. I've lived here a long time in Lodi, and when the town was very
small, and 1 was in lots of plays here in the local auditorium, we always had to pray two
nights, and we played to a full house. And I know that we could have had a third night
if we would have wanted it. And I have been here in church meetings and everything has
always been filled. I think we need the auditorium very much.
Man Is there a break code wise just below 1000? In other words, if we go above 1000 is it more
stringent?
e
Lew Actually, the building, if 1 remember correctly, meets the over 1000 requirements, bait there
are sane problems built into it. Some of the other difficulties that I didn't get to in going
through the slides - in can you don't remember, the toilet rooms in the auditorium harve a
six foot two inch ceiling height. The reason we know that - Lorry is 6-2 and a half and had
e to duck. They really aren't adequate, and so as part of what Franchesca and Schreider did
and part of what we looked at too in that regard was that the facilities- there are no facilities
for the handicapped, there are inadequate facilities for the public in that building, and would
be aiiiajor portion of what would be required to put that building in operation. .
Lady i have a comment -to make in talking about the auditorium. i see a real psychological
frameworkthatwe have -built up that we have a need to go to Stockton. i just think_ that
perhaps in looking: at the auditorium, we should stay here in Lodi- we need to stay local .
I think we're facing- this- with downtown, the some idea that Lodi's losing its own. :'d
much rather come be involved here in Lodi. My daughter has a dance performance with
Borbara: Faulkner and we have to- -go to Stockton. Every timeyoudo that, that-psychoilogy
you know, which I'm not saying is that negative, takes ploca we have to go to Stockton.
We're drifting away, and i see a real psychological impact, and perhaps a key base would
bor the auditorium, i think from that, psychologically, you move back in. You know, this
is 4 start. That auditorium represents alot of things to me and alot of other people - things
tht went on there. I see it personally as a very special pivotal point for getting things
® back right here. I can just think of so many things that happen, Suzuki violins, this and that
and'to think that a city of this size has no meeting place of its own. I think we need to say
more about ourselves. I think we cut ourselves short, and l think it's very exciting that all of
you ore here and that you care. I hope people aren't feeling negative about this, you know,
I blink it's very exciting that you're all here, and 1 would just like to think of that place
perhaps totally refurbished.
Lady Is there a price for demolishing everything?
Lew Yes. The question was, "is there a price for demolishing the site?" We have asked a company
that has done work here locally including removal of the damaged original main building. To
quote how many dollars it would cost to demolish each building both in total and as an individual
one at a time, that's one of the charges we were given by the City Council, how much it would
cast. Let's see here ..... If you demolished all of the site at once, the quote is $84,000.00, and
that is a guestimate, that is not a firm estimate. That is considering that the person demolishing
would have all of the salvage, all of the salvage. That is o daily fluxuating cost based on the
value of used brick, which are now running something like 424 a piece, retail. That is the total
site, ten acres, clean. if you wonted to pick a number, if you wanted to let's say demolish

the Main Building foundation, their estimate is $24,000.00 for that foundation.. The auto
shop, for example, they estimated would cost $10,000.00 if demolished by itself, and there
are some other numbers in there, but they're all right in that range. There are also same
other figures in here that you knight be interested in, estimates on what it would cost to fix
the roofs. Now, we've eluded to the fact that all of the roofs look in varying amounts,
some more, some less. it is estimated that the total roofing work including contractor's
profit and overhead would cost about $255,300.00. That's a bunch of money. That does,
however, include whatever structural work would be required to put the diaphragms in
%hope - that's the roof plywood and that sort of thing. Removal of the roofing and putting
back In place, so if any of you would be interested in those kinds of figures, i have them
here.
Charlene Lew, is there any discussion right now about what buildings should go?
Lew -there has been clot of discussion by clot of people.
Charlene I think there have been some questions out there, and you have been privy to ail this
and information for "-post couple of months. We know that there's been no set dec#sion
Lew mode by you a -the City Council, but 1 think it behooves us to let us know what buildings
just are not salvageable,. what needs to be cleared out and removed to think about
possibly saving other buildings or honestly, should the whole thing, in your opinion (Lew
interrupts, "I -don`t-hove- an opinion -of that nature yet.. I don't dares have -an -opinion
I ike that yet, I know that. No, I have an opinion, but l would just at soon keep it
to myself if it's all the samo. We have a master plan to produce, and part of that
master pian is makinga decision that can be looked upon with favor by the public.
I think it would be premature of Ine to ....... interrupter by Murphy
Murphy This is one of the question that has came up numerous times in Council, and I am speaking
for myself, not the other four Council people. I have asked Lew several occasions and
a couple of the other Council people have as well, to come to us at the earliest date
penibie, which will be next week, and this will hopefully some of the iaformation
at that time, and the reason that I requested an early date on porrticulating passible buildings
tribe eliminated was to start cleaning up the facility as soon as possible. Anything that'
wd know that is not refurbishible to get rid of it and to get the site cleaned up and gest it
back to a sightly ordinance, a positive aspect for the community. So, that for myself is
one of my primary things, to see what is going to stand and what is not, and then that way
when the master plan does come down to the final wire on Sept. 7, and we have it
produced, then we can say OK, here's the dollars we're going to have to shoot for, go
after the different Federal funds for refurbishing some of the buildings Ad getting some.
gtmts, bt_use up to this point as 1 mentioned earlier in my opening remark, this has
been ore of the primary problems that we haven't been able to get any dollars, because
w* haven't had a master plan and we finally got going officially January 1. So that's
where we stand right now.

A
Man Has there been any thought given to maybe keeping the integrity of say three complexes,
Fred? this building, this building and the auditorium, selling off part of the property ?
*Murphy No, nothing as of yet until we actually have the master plan come back.
Man Is.there an agreement with the District, if we sold a part of the property, would it go back
to the school district.
qAurphy OK, the agreement with the District was the purchase price of the complex was $475, 000.00
and that during a ten year period of time that the city was to sell the premises, then we would
share equally in the cost differential over the purchase price of the site. So, we're a year
and a half, two years into it since the City purchased it lost March, 1980. That was the
agreement with the District at that particular time. The District has also asked for -numerous,
well, part icvlarty-tht bock of this building to use. But here, again, it carnes back to
liability, part icu lar:y because of this one part icu lar shower room. It has some bad features to
it, they took out all the lockers , and they have about a 9 or 10 inch uprise in there where
the lockers used to sit. That's all we need is some young person getting in there roust housing
as kids do, and getting hurt.
s
Lew We have, however, to field a little bit of that previous -question- - we have looked at some
fairly logical things that perhaps could -be dorso. -Being as that this building is able to used
as we are using it this evening, and it requires parking and we're all out there on the grass
tonight, it's logical- to look at what you -should -do- with the -site, and just as a hypothetical
! case, we looked at how many cars you could put on here if you had a function going on,
and without ushV ony of" boll field out-twthe back, you could probably get about 275
or 280 can an here. That's one of the things that is going to have to be looked at in our
next section which is the design phase, the physical aspect of what can be done here, not
just whether buildings should be kept or removed, but if you keep them, what are you going
to do with them and how are you going to provide onseliary facilities-- access by the
® handicapped, toilet facilities, heating and air conditioning, a tremendous multitude of
things that need to go on with all these buildings if they are to be kept, or with new buildings
if they are to be built. So, that's, Fred said earlier that we've got to really look at what we
want to do with it, and that's what we hope to find from some of your comments this
evening -- that there are more important things to do than other things and we con address
ourselves to those things.
1 Lady Are we to make a decision tonight what (interrupted by Lew with "No, of
i
course not.
,;9DSve I think an answer to Charlene's question would be that as for as to make a determination whether
or not to destroy a building is we can look at it in terms of factual information right now in
terms of restoration or demolition. The key word, I think, is use. You can have a building,
like the main foundation that is no longer a building, but if there is a use for that, that would
La predetermined that that building could be restored. But, use is the most critical thing out
p, there, and that's the main reason for the first public workshop, to determine uses and users.
51
Steve

Because if we don't have a use for a structure or the site, it's not worth restoring.
As much as we would all like to keep the open spaces, there is no viable reason for
keeping it. You understand that's one of the logical things we have to look at, that's
one of our charges, that there's clot of illogical reasons we do have to look at, and
that's kind of what keeps us tempered with the direction the site should go. Mr.
Johnson, you look like you need to say something.
No, I was just thinking of what you were saying, and amplifying it in my own mind. The
fact comes down to what Steve just said. If there isn't a -use, then this whole thing is
goiag to go up for grabs and the commercial developers will develop it. Period. Yocs know,
they'll find a use and they'll supply it and fill it. l was just extending in my mind wFwat you
were saying. You left that unsaid (chuckles from the audience).
Steve What I was going to tell you was that l think it's a good time as Lew has put together a
bunch of what if scenarios, and these are some of the five points that we put in the
administrative report.
-Lew In fact, I -should probably readthose, shouldn't I? Thesearefivepossibilitiesthat we have,
' with logic, looked at: One was demolish the entire site, and redevelop it with all new
facilities to. suit a previous program.. Two_is, -and if the lady from the News Sentinel wants,
I would be happy to give her a copy, remove the foundation of the main building and the
Leon -to additions to the shop facility, re0ore and use allotherfacilities and develop
programs to fit. The third one is to restore al# of the facilities to usable condition, including
the main building and develop a program to fit that. The fourth one is combine some
removal, not necessarily based on structural consideration with some remodeling and
possibly some . additions to comply with a long-term program of useage. That is what Steve
i was talking about. The fifth one is to return the site to the private sector. Those are five
possibilities that we have looked at, and there are multitudinous other possibilities, but
those cue five that we have eluded to to the Council in our report.
it is
Ed 1 would like to make a statement. As director of recreation and parks*my responsibility
ide to give the community a recreation point of view, the needs and the Eike of needs they're
Benedetti looking for regardless of what activities might be in o recreational nature.
j I've been accused of being over zealous in my need moofacilities, softball facilities
and basketball facilities, volleyball facilities in the sports area, and that's true. I'm guilty
of it. I'm a jock by nature, I guess, and 1 would just like to see those activities progress
and 1 have mode provisions as much as possible to see that they have the activity days that
they need. Mainly because there is a need in numbers and it's not as expensive as it may
sound andthese are the people in trying to back you up when you need some support and
i I think the figures of the number of people that participate in athletic activities in the
community whether they be children or whether they be adults, I think speak for themselves.
! But I am not in total neglecting the other needs of the community, per say. 1 have worked
l with the little theater, and I think if it wasn't for our help, the department's help, it may not
have had a start, and I have worked with the drome group and I have worked with the music
people in the community and I've tried to help the Art Center as much as possible. We help
52
0
them with janitorial work and things of that nature, painting the building, or little things
that come along. But in looking at our needs right now, and looking back, we need, the
cultural needs of the community are in sore need of help. There is no question about that.
The young lady right there (pointing to Mrs. Stenson) made a statement that we should
follow. First of all, the people that we have in the community are doing a valiant job of
trying to keep these cultural activities going, the art, drama, music, etc. But when they
don't have a facility to work with, it's pretty difficult and my statement would be that if
they have 'the facility, then you would see these activities flourish in abundance and somebody
once made the statement that you don't measure the stature of a community by size olone, but
in the way the physical and cultural needs of the citizens are taken core of. And I think that
that's a statement that I have tried to work with right along, because I think it's a very
important statement. I think every community has to have a cultural background - otherwise
it's going to have problems. Indoor wise, facility wise, we have always been blessed with
a good cooperation between City and Schools. 1 could go on and on about this, but we do
have cooperative agreements - they use our facilities, we use their facilities, we keep the
costs down as much as possible. Then the women came along and they decided they wanted
to get into athletics. So the athletic programs have flourished (too much laughing).
They got off the -hockey fields, and they've lived in the gymnasium, they got involved in
basketball, and they got involved in volleyball and badminton, and they got involved in
softball, arxf-swimming-and things of that nature, and consequently, our recreation department
hos been pushed out. Thank God, I'm happy for the girls that they got off the hockey field
(too much laughing again) their very own. And they should get more
involved in ming, in golf, and heavens, 1 need the help in golf, because the golf course
is not doing too weti. They should be involved in all the types of activities that they can
carry on through life. Now I have noticed avery high useoge, a very definite need that
women and men, and women in particular, and you've seen them in becoming involved in
physical and cultural needs to keep themselves fit. So we've got some good programs in
those areas. Jazzercize, for example, is going to be moving into this building starting
June 6, 1 believe, in the mornings, and they're going to have three classes in the mornings
here every day of the week, Monday through Friday. They'll be out of here by 9:30 or
10:00 so we can convert this room to other uses. We have night classes at the Hale Paris
Rec Center for Jozzercize. There ore going to be about -800 women involved in Jozzercise
and one guy. This one guy is signing up for every class. I supervise the class and they keep
v throwing me out. But seriously, I see this plan is neat. Now one possible activity that
might be consolidated in the use of these facilities aside from the music and the cultures,
etc. etc. which 1 hear some figures tonight which make me feel slot better because I hcve
not been what you would call in favor necessarily of the development of this area. I have
made statements to that effect, but I am pliable, and 1 am going to listen, and I hear some
• figures that yes, we can refurbish some of these bui Idings for less money than to build a
new one. Well, that's a step in the right direction, and I think that there is on activity
that is needed in the community that could be a family -type of activity if it's structured
properly and if the facilities are here for it and the proper equipment is here for a YMCA
and 1 hate to use that word because i would like to have our deportment operate it rather
than the YMCA, but a YMCA -type of activity where the entire family can participate,
who are willing to pay a nominal amount of money per month, and my figure was that if
we could get about 300 families at $30.00 a mono,'' we could offer a good program to
it brings in about $9,000.00 a month times 12 months out of the year, it might bring in
enough money to operate the facilities that ore needed for that activity which would be
0
53
the gymnasium, the pool and some of the outdoor facilities and some of the other roorns that
would be put to use for weight lifting programs, boxing programs, gymnastics programs,
physical culture programs, just exercise programs, jogging - I was thinking about lighting
the football field on the outside, nominal lighting where we could have jogging classes and
physical culture closes where people would do it in groups rather than individuals. Sometimes
a guy would like or a gal would like to get out and run or jog and they won't do it by
themselves, but they'll do it as a group. And if we could offer this type - I think we could
have sufficient money brought in if the program is properly structured, to pay for the
instructors, to pay for the facilities and maybe to help pay for the maintenance of the other
facilities when they're completed.
Lady May I say something? A young man came to see me the other day, and he would like very much
to have a YMCA program restarted here, and t think he wants to introduce just what you. are
talkie about.
Ed I'm sure he does. I'm not against it, but I'd like to try it myself. I'll put it this way - I think
if we have the administration to do the some job without putting more money into administration
and putting the money directly into a program, 1 don't know if that makes sense or not. Just one
second, please. Cultural needs we must have, indoor facilities, we must have. We're running
short, we're turning down teams, not that's not a big thing - it's not that important, -really,
other than if-you'rea basketball player or a volleyball player, etc.. To give you -an example,
a volleyball program this post year we hold in the high schools. They give us the fact ity, they
clear the dote and then something comes along and they need that facility for their purpose so
they throw us out, and we have to hurriedly get on the phone and call maybe 100 people and
soy, "We'rwnot -playing volleyball," which is very difficult. It is-another--r*craation-
depor#aant screw -up. Sometimes we do screw up, but sometimes we don't screw up. -Most =of
the time I think it's because they need it - 1 understand their problet" - we need it, am we
don't have a place to go. So, we need more indoor facilities. Family oriented activities as-
I mentioned with some instruction where the family could participate where there is something
for everybody in the family at a nominal cost might go a long way, and need an auditorium.
I'll shut up.
Lady I want to back Ed up with what he said. Over here at the racquetball club right now there are
1300 + families at a minimum of 530.00 a month, and as for as we know, you know, there're
problems. Tell me about it, I'm involved in it. There is such a need, and that could easily,
you know, with gas, etc. people are looking for something to do at home. I really believe
what Ed is saying - you've got your land here, it is something that will be here for any of us.
Ed Excuse me - I think that we would meet more needs the needs of the family in total for the same
armount of money, maybe not quite as fancy, definitely not quite as fancy, and I really think
(side 1 of tape ended) that a program properly run I think that they would be willing to pay
a nominal fee ar-i you could offer good service in thz area of activities that they could carry
over through life as they go along, and may get something out of it.
Murphy let me ask also - the five council people you have representing you right now, too, are very
much interested in what you and the other citizens of Lodi have to say, and the only way
we're going to know is for you to either contact us personally, write us letters, or drop
Charlene a note, or whomever, in order to inform us of what your thoughts are. I know it's
difficult for some people to come up in front of that council sometimes and make a presentation,
but sometime along the line, each and every one of us has to do it, whether it's written or
otherwise. If it is a written correspondence, and it comes to council, it will be recognized, and
it will be read aloud as correspondence to the community. So, please pass the word to other
citizens or friends or whomever to contact us or contact the committee, the site committee
on this particular project.
tenni i was raised in Lodi and groduated from this high school thirty years ago. The last few years
Hagy my husband and 1 lived in New Hampshire, and it's absolutely beautiful because they do save
all their old sites, and "microphone was cut off"
Lady There have been all kinds of ideas batted around, and 1 have heard different money figures.
Who is the person who's -going to supply the funding? Would the City supply the funding
for whatever is decided, or would the people coming into here supply the furling or where
is that all coming from ?
Lew That's a good question. Part of what we are charged to do between now and somewhere in the
middle of July is to address ourselves, I think it's called an economic analysis well I don't
remember what we titled it up there - and part of that is locate grants and aid if possible,
locate user fees if possible, locate costs where we can determine them based on prograrns that
we get from the community. Does that answer your question? To answer your question
directly, we don't have it in hand, but we are to address ourselves to it over the next few
months.
Steve I think what might be helpful, Lew, is to explain the terns of what we do with the informa—
tion that we occumu tote as welI as assess the user data information that we gather - how
we digest it in the design possibilities - all the things we have talked about, but have not
run through is sequence.
Lew In response to that, one of the things that has happened is that there are six individuals in
this design group, and they are very individual people, I can assure you of that. They are
about as diverse a six people as you con find, and there are positions all the way from one
® end to the other, and part of what we do is try to assimilate individually your responses, what
you say, what you do, who you get involved in what groups are active, which groups are not,
and try to take from our position what that is and put it into o reasonable and logical format,
you know, lice users are coming up and saying we need an auditorium, we have this many
people, we can produce so many dollars, we have a cultural program, we have a physical
program, etc. We try to take all those things and put them downon paper, much the some
0 as what you see here in the visual analysis. We put them down on paper and sit back and
look at them with an .unbiosed eye, hopefully, or with an unjoundiced eye and 'try to say,
"Look, this is logical and this is reasonable and we con probably fund it. Or, this is
illogical, it is unreasonable, but we con probably fund it, too. Or, maybe we can't
fund anything and we have to forget the whole thing." We try to put it down on paper,
0 look it, stand back, view it from all different locations, talk to people who would be
using the facilities, and say "Hey, what would you think about this, what do you think
about that, is this a possibility?" We have brought up numerous things at committee meetings
talking with various members who have input, and we try to get that input bock and forth,
try to get a dialogue going. And that dialogue we try to put down on paper, visually, so that
0 you con see it and we can see it and work from there into various and sundry programs. Does
that answer your question? Kind of? Or did 1 screw? 1 have a habit of doing that
0
55
Steve Well, what I was coming to is that you see tools assessed by us as designers and one of the
tools is the use study. OK - when we look at the use, we look at the compatibility of
uses within each other as well as one use may stand outside of all the others, you know,
recreation may be that use, an auditorium may be that use. Then we also look at the viable
alternatives in terms of physical facilities within a site. What can we do on ten acres, and
what can we do with the existing buildings? And what can we do with a ten acre site with
all new buildings? OK? And the other way we look at it, we look at the physical costs of
things. What are the costs to restore these buildings, what are tie costs to destroy these
buildings, what are the costs to build new buildings, what is the cost of a combinctioin of
these things? And it's not just cost in terms of one time, again, operations and maintenance.
How long will the building stay in function and what will its monthly expenses be, as well as
the program we put together with uses we are looking at, what is the cost of administration.
We're looking at alternative sources of funding with an economical analysis. Whether or not
we're going with City government, private donations, private enterprise, selling off parts of
the land. We're looking at all types of alternatives here, and you're assessing it, evoluating it,
and you're coming up with physical plans. And then when we come up with some type of plan
based ccn some type of program, this all falls into a logical sequence at the end. And where we're
at, is we're at the tip of the iceberg, we have alot of facts, we have clot of information, we have
clot of physical constraints, clot of nostalgia and ideas about the whole thing. The question is,
how do we put it together? And this is what we need - we need the public input at this stage
to give us some guidance in order for us as professionals to absorb this and put this into some
type of reasonable and logical pattern that we can relate back to you. Because in the next
design phase between now and the -second public workshop, we're probobly going to c-ome up
with several alternative ideas which we will be presenting to you. We, of course, will probably
have our preference and loan towards on* of them, but at that public workshop your input might
change our direction 1800. We might go back the other way, and that's why we have the second
public workshop, in which case we analyze all the existing alternatives, and come up with a
final master plan based on that public workshop, which we present all the alternatives and options
in terms of economics, nostalgia, uses, physical constraint, etc. I think this is one of the key
things of this public workshop, to know what you wont or don't want.
Larry If 1 could expand a little bit on that, Steve - we've been talking clot about our needs of
assimilating the uses, but I think I need to explain a little bit further. The more detailed
information that you, the public, can give us, tshe better. Like the gentleman in the back
brought out the point that we needed music instruction places (spaces) for that type of
programs, and we know that there are many types of those programs going on in the private
sector within Lodi as well as in the school sector, through different churches, and alot of
different programs. But what we need to know is who are the groups, how many people are
they, when do they meet, what really are the needs, how much they pay for space now, how
much would they be willing to pay. And so you people out there representing different groups -
we really need hard information, the harder the information, the better.
Lew I think Don was saying that a program could be developed - a summer program. Well, that's
just one of many, so that's hard information we can put into the mill and see what comes out.
How many do you have every Monday night?
Fred Our group is about 35. couldn't hear)
Lew Somewhere between 20 and 40, eh ? That sounds good. You see, that's hard data we con use.
-777
C`
.
Lady 1s the gymnasium tall enough to convert to racquetball? t don't know how tall they are.
(Lew) Probably not - I didn't measure it. i was just curious - that seems to be the ragte
right now.
Lew Yeah, but there are probably better uses for that space other than Racquetball. Racquetball
is pretty well accommodated as for as facilities in the community.
Lady You have to have a certain kind of a poured wall.
tarry They -have many types of systems that can go inside a facility. But the question comes down to
competing with the private sector, and 1 think we have to find uses that will pay off economically.
Man I'm representing the community theater group here, the Tokay Players, and my question is do
you want additional statement of need besides what we've already submitted on the questionnaire
sent out earlier?
Lew I .think one of the things that came to mind after looking at:the questionnaire that you filled out
prey iously was how many days and hours, etc. do you�'physicaIly use the facilities, and that
sort of -thing, and those are details that we -would go from where we are to the next workshop.
If's really in the design phase where we would-be. contacting you and talj ing to you obcut
the -specifics of your operation and how they go on,. ana- the specifics' -of the bond peop1le and how
they go on, and thdt sort of thing. Tonight, no - we -have good input from your group. Any
other groups that would be of a similar nature, we would Mole hear from because then we've
got two groups that want to use the facility, and that causes a scheduling problem which we're
not involved in, but we can perhaps -:provide- a- facility- that -would. -work.
Lady I'd like to make a proposal for Ed that what we're talking about
a YMCA thing perhaps at the next wor p.
Lew If I may interrupt - that is what we're charged to do by the next workshop - that whole big long
and section up there - it says, land use $ facilities, preliminary master plan, support drawings,
'Wight? building potential and alternative use concepts. Those things are the physical drawings of what
we come back to you with at the next workshop. So that's where we go from here. We've got
about a month and a half or thereabouts to do that.
lew Anything else? If not, it's drawing towards 4:30, and we kind of planned on shutting. down
about then.
Ken If I could just take a couple of minutes to maybe remind the people of things i have kind of
Boyd harped on from the beginning of this, and one is that we must remember that this is a long term
project. Let's not be frightened off by figures or a big project. We tend to look at something
that might wind up costing us 25 million dollars and say, "Oh, we could never afford that."
And it's true - we can't today, but over the next 25 years we could. Economics change.
Ten years ago we were in a position as a City maybe to build this thing. Today we aren't.
Ten years from now we may be again. So let's keep the future in mind. Secondly, let's
not anticipate that this is ever going to be a money making project. We ought not to
apologise for that. We tax ourselves in many ways as citizens to provide services collectively
that we couldn't provide individually. We tax ourselves on police and fire for instance. We
�7
57
071
do that gladly. There isn't any reason
on we shouldn't be glad to tax ourselves to provide
recreational and cultural facilities for our citizens. So let's keep that In mind. We talk
ob"-Tvate or cit y_ptpneyLet's remember that the City is not -o money making entefprize.
-pr
Every dime- that it hiiicbMes from the private sector., so I don't think that we should
opologise for asking the City to pay for smething. It's our dollars that they are using to
pay for that, the private sector. it's your money that they are spending for a facility for
you. They can do it because they are collecting 6 dollar from me and a dollar from you •
and they spendthe two dollars back. And we are able to accoin lish something. collectively
thq�-" couldn't 11natWtkidliy. So, dont be discourage . d if we make use of the City money,

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Introduction:
In order to make a reasonable choice amongst alternatives regarding the
utilization of the Old Lodi Union High School facilities, it is necessary to
# first Identify o general posture with regard to the resources that are available,
and the combination of usages of these resources. Basically the utilization
issue- centers -around three different and distinct resources; the land, the
buildings, and the operating revenue service centers. For purpose of this
portion of the report, the operating revenue services will be defined as
those octive business--activities-within the complex which have the potential
e for generating profits for the operators. This distinction is made early in- the
discussion for purposes of identifying those resources which have different
configurations of tax and business opportunity potentials.
It is also necessary at this point to generally discuss the concepts of risk,
s benefit and control. Normally these three concepts inure to the owner of
any property and- if ownership- ls pied in one form or another, a combination
of one, two or all three of these elements may be passed depending. upon the
vehicles used for passage. When considering what possible relationships might
exist between the City of Lodi and the private sector, it is important to bear
in. mind that contras- will frequently shift with ownership -and efforts to retain
control: without retainingownershiptend to be very complex and fraught with
difficulty. Generally speaking, risk and control go hand-in-hand in the
sense that the party who controls an activity in a business setting or in an
economic setting typically will incur an element of risk for the right of
st retaining control.
There are a number of potential combinations which may be functional when
considering the possible interrelationship between the City of Lodi and the
private community with regard .'o ownership control, risk, and benefits arising
e from the utilization of the Old Lodi Union High School facility. At one end of
the spectrum, there is the possibility that the city may decide to entirely
divest itself of the interest by selling the site and buildings to the private
community and allowing the private community a total and complete hand as
to the development and utilization of the facility. At the other end of the
spectrum is the choice that the city may decide to retain all control, risk,
® and benefit and to develop the site using its own resources and operate all
revenue centers without the aid of the private sector. In between these two
extremes, there are several potential combinations, for example: Partial sales
of the property to the private community combined with or not combined with
lease backs; sales of portions of the land while retaining other portions of the
land and the buildings; sales of the buildings only followed by or not followed
by lease backs of those buildings. The number of possible combinations is very
large, and in foct too large to cover all possible combinations within the scope
of this report.
59
Some examples of arrangements might be the following:
1. The city may decide to lease the land to the private sector and sell the
buildings, whereby the private sector would buy the buildings, make all
necessary improvements and renovations, and operate functional cost and
revenue centers. in this particular example, the city would take the position
of a passive investor, with retained control only over the land, and thereby
limiting its risk of loss, but would probably have very little to say about the
actual utilization of the physical facilities and the activities undertaken by the
revenue centers.
2. The city may decide to lease the land and the existing buildings to the private
sector, whereby the private sector would make improvements and operate the
revenue centers in accordance with those activities which would be most profitable
to the private sector. Under this particular alternative, the city is still mointairaing
a passive investment role, but has increased its potential risk and.revenue, and of
the some time has relinquished -control over the utilization of the operating facilit#es.
3'. The city may -go -one step -further, in that it improves the existing buildings, then
leases the facilities to the private sector and stipulates in the lease what types of
operating activities would be undertaken in the facility. Under this choice, the
city is expanding its control over the utilization of the operating facilities, but
still basically -maintaining a.passive investment posture.
C
4. The city might decide to -sell the property to the private sector under a sale
lease back agreement, whereby the private sector would build and improve the
site and lease the facilities back to the city and the city would then control all
operating revenue centers within the facility. Under this particular example, c_
the private sec►or becomes a relatively passive investor whereby it owns only the
property and the city becomes the active participant in day to day operations of
the revenue centers. This example shifts more risk and control to the city.
5. The city may desire to retain the land, sell and lease back the buildings from r
the private sector, and the private sector would then improve and make all necessary
construction with specifications dictated by the city and lease: the buildings only
to the city. Under this situation, the city assumes the posture of a passive investor
with regard to the land and an active business operator with regard to the different
revenue centers. {
The above examples represent a few of the possible alternative relationships between
the city and the private sector. There are other possible relationships which could
exist and the details of those relationships would certainly represent possible
alternate choices to the above five listed.

Tax Incentives:
E:
In light of the potential involvement of the private sector, it is important to view
all of the benefits that the private sector would receive under any proposed set of
relationships. Certain benefits that are available to the private -sector, which acre
not available to the public sector, include the taut benefits which would inure to
e the private sector but not to the public sector. These tax benefits definitely have
an affect on the prospective of the potential private investor, and in the interest of
making the Lodi City officials aware of what these inducements are, there are the
following summary outlines of potential basic tax benefits inuring to private sector
p I icipotion.
"e Fundamentally speaking, most tax benefits will inure only to the owner of the
property. Following is a list of such benefits:
1. Under Internal Revenue Codes, the owner of a building with an age of more
than twenty years is entitled to a ten percent (10%) investment tax credit on the
s cost.of interior renovations of such building as long as -that-building is placed into
commercial use after the renovations have been mode. For example, -ifo developer -
were to internally renovate part of the buildings at the Old Lodi Union High Sctml
site and he also owned those buildings and those renovations cost him $200,000, he
would receive a $20,000 investment tax credit which would reduce his income tax
NI bility in "year those renovations were=ploced into -service-.
2. That some investment tax credit would apply to the acquisition of any equip-
ment that the private sector investor may acquire related to either the operation
of on active revenue center or the development of a passive investment. The
qualifications under this particular Internal Revenue Code are relatively complex
but can be summorized by saying that such equipment must basically be movable,
depreciable, and thereby used in a profit seeking venture.
3. Depreciation under the Internal Revrnue Code and the State of California
e Revenue Codes is a convention, whereby the private sector is allowed a deduction
for the amortization of capital asset used in the production of income. This
amortization is a rateable deduction over the life of the capital asset. This
deduction does not require an out-of-pocket expenditure on the part of the
private investor. Within the spectrum of depreciation, the private investor has
choices which can accelerate or increase the deduction for depreciation in the
e early life of the asset, thereby yielding a tax shelter or tax benefit through the
reduction of taxable income. With regard to specific types of equipment purchased
which might be utilized in the operations of a revenue center, the private sector
investor can elect what Is known as bonus or additional first year depreciation. This
first year depreciation is limited in amount, but can represent a tax incentive to the
3 private investor.
j
61
M

4. The depreciation conventions discussed previously not only yield certain
Immediate tax benefits, but in certain types of environments con convert ordinary
income which is taxable at one hundred per cent (100%) into what is known as
capital gains which has a preferred treatment under both the state and federal tc"
codes. This'preferred treatment is, under present federal law basically a forty
percent (4096) taxobillty of the gain on the sale of an asset.
The -above- listing of tax inducermerts to the private sector represents a fairly
complete -set of tax inducements which the private sector could utilize and
would normally consider in their negotiations with the city. It is important to note
however, that- the prudent investor in the private sector will look at all economic
dimensions in the= light--of-rate of return on investment, and the ter dimension. of
the anniysTs is only a portion of the total economic picture that the private sectoe
will consider.
In summary, it can be said that the private sector will be viewing potential
relationships with the City of Lodi in terms of their rate of return. -on --investment
as- it relates to the tax benefits and economic benefits related to such o relation-
ship. The= private sector will basically be looking. for ownership -in. -one -form -or
another, either passive or active ownership, and generally speaking will probably
resist any control interventions from the government related to utilization- of
active revenue centers. A combination, private and public sector undertaking,
wouldprob-ably.reduce the. burden and risk of the city, but would-=olw.tend=to° €
reduce the control that the city has over utilization of the FactUtietuntess the
city is actively involved in the revenue center operation.

INTRODUCTION
1950 brought many changes to the Fairfield Community Center. Programs were moved
out of the Center, new special events were introduced staffing has been changed, a new
registration program was implemented and even the facility itself is in the process of
change.
During the year, Kinder -Gymnastics, Dancergetics, and all Senior Citizens programs
were moved from the Community Center. This change of location caused a drop in attend-
ance at the Community Center of approximately 3,028 participants per month. To partially
off -set this drop in attendance, a number of new programs were introduced. A Christmas
Party for pre-schoolers and a three day "Present to Parents" program for children ages
6 to 11 were held. These programs introduced a new segment of Fairfield's population to
the services offered by the Recreation Department.
When the Recreation Department reorganized, supervision of the Community Center was
assigned to a General Recreation Supervisor. This reorganization, along with the Public
Works Department assuming the major part of the cost for a night custodian, has decreased
the cost of Center staff by $26,539.00. 1980 also brought a decrease in facility usage
requests. There were 427 fewer applications processed during the year. This decrease
is reflected across the board with only youth groups and public agencies showing an
increase. This decrease in usage may be rehective of the new fee structure that was
put into effect during 1979, but even with less usage, the Community Center showed an
increase of revenue from facility rentals of $8,223.50 over 1979. This increase in
revenue caused the cost per participant to drop by 9 cents.
In January 1980, the City's new class registration program went into effect. The
Community Center's box office is how the horde of the registrar, and it is her job to
process mail -in registration, as well as those who come to the office to register from
10:00am to 2:00pm Monday through Friday. This new program has worked so well, that the
Center's Game Room has teen closed and is now undergoing renovation so that the regis-
tration program may expand to encbmpigs all the Recreation Department's needs.

• Beginning with the Spring Session, Osncergetics cusses were
NOY d to the Spo=ts Center. This represents a substantial re-
duction in thi'nnaber of participants in the Coseunity Center
class totals.
F o• this increase of 190 participsgts and 24 class sessions ower 1979
is +t(ceptional Obeh taking into consideration the loss of
Dancergetics, a very high participation level activity. This
program increase reflects creative and vigorous program planning
and turiementation.

MEMORANDUM
E
TO: Charlene Lange DATE: July 1, 1981
Community Relations Assistant
FROM: Fred C. Wilson, Finance Director
SUBJECT: Your Mena of 6/28/81 -Municipal Bond Issues
Charlene, I am sending to you a copy of our 1965 Bond Prospectus. It will
supply you with many of -the answers regarding -the bond proceeds method of
financing municipal construction.
Let me try to answer a few of your questions that you will not find in the
prospectus.
How :does one implement a bond issue?
Most popular approach is to contract with financial consultants for their
administrative services. We have used Stone and Youngberg on three or
four occasions, but there are many other good ones.
The consultants will coordinate the efforts of architects, engineers..,.
legal, bond' printers, and paying. agents. All are a part of the -process.
They also determine the amount of money needed and the best source of
revenue for paying _off .the bonds, since with "Prop. 13" you cannot use
proceeds from property tax, revenue bonds will have to be used in -Calif-
ornia. The bonds must be redeemed from either pledged revenue or income
from the facility. Not Property Taxes anymore.
The financial consultants will draft the prospectus (the selling
document) and get the bonds rated for you. They will tell the world how
great we are and how easily we can pay off the bonds.
. What fees and costs are involved?
Financial consultants cost from three to ten percent of the issue - this
cost will include the prospectus, a legal opinion, printing the bonds and
the bond sale (quite a little legal advertising is involved).
. Terms and length of issue?
I presume that you mean what are the terms of the language used on the bonds
and the length of time of the bonds. Standard bond language is used that
spells out many things but for sure -ddresses what we would do with the
money, constraints, covenants and other pronouncements. The term of years
is a little flexible, but for the most part is set by the money market and
your ability to pay, i.e. maybe no one will give you a real long-term
at the time of bidding. On the other hand, maybe we can't afford too short
a term. It's expensive.

. Your item on ammortization.
I' -m- not aura -that I understand- your Vary as it was implied. But to
ammortize is to spread evenly over a period of time. For instance, if -
a bond- is sold at -more. -or less than- Us face value, it is- said to be
sold at a premium or discounted. To the purchaser, he or she, amortizes
this amount over the period of the life of the bond. An example would be: a
10 -year $1,000. bond discounted to $750. and returns 107E interest. The
discounted amount of $250. is spread over the ten years, or $25. per year
and adds tothe interest -of- .$100. (10% x-.$-1*000.). When you consider the
discount of $25, and interest of $-100, your $750. will earn a yield of
$100. + x.25. or 16 =66%.
$ 750
As for todays interest rates_, the. market. isreal. new-ous .todayt We could
possibly sell as low as 0 and as high as 10A yield whether discounted or
not
An example of the cost is that at Six for twenty years a million dollars
would be $105,670. annually. If you can't handle that, the same for thirty
years would be $93,000. annually.
An election would be in the area of 15 110.

LODI COMMUNITY CENTER

May 26, 1'981
The Lodi City Council, the Old LUHS Foundation and the Lodi Community
Center Development Committee, through their desire for civic improvement,
have requested an examination and review of the conditions under which a
Community Center can be developed on the site of the old LUHS. On
Aprit 1, 1981, the City Council awarded a contract totheLodi Design Group
to help perform this task. Each member of the team has re-examined hit -views
toward restoration work and new construction,. examined the current conditions
and participated in some: phase of this intermediate report. The program, to
date, is -to be updated and expanded upon as.. the Community Center Master
Plan is developed. The urgency of the completion of the work is emphasized
to us by the rapid rate at which deterioration of the facilities is occurring.
Lodi Union High School was built in several increments from 1922 through
1964 -- the Gymnasium was, for instance,, built _as -four different .projects.
Overall, the buildings were constructed of quo I1tymaterloI and from good to
excellent workmanship. Although well used, they are basically `in -sound
condition. Modern earthquake resistance requirements, year around mechanical
systems, improved electrical systems and access for the handicapped, however,
result in substantial costs for rehabilitation.
The basic planning alternatives are as Wows.
I. Demolish entire site -- re -develop with ail new facilities to suit a
pre -developed program.
2. Remove foundation of Main Building and "lean-to" additions to shop
facilities. Restore and use all other facilities. Develop program to
fit.
3. Restore all facilities to useable condition including Main Building.
Develop program to fit.
4. Combine some removal, not based on structural considerations alone, with
some remodeling and, possibly some additions, to comply with a long tern
program of usage.
5. Return site to private sector.
At the present level of study, there appear to be opportunities for preservation that
can result in considerable savings over entirely new facilities. Usages can be more
restrictive, however, particularly for the visual and performing arts. On the other
hand, excellent opportunities for developing recreational programs present themselves.
There is, also, very strong sentiment in the community favoring historical preserva-
tion of the existing facilities as much as possible.
