RC114CHE CIT LE "The Athletic Club MrH *ole Person" s y 1 182 The Honorable Alice Reimche ��� Cly«<<, City Clerk `.- 221 West Pim Street• Lodi, CA 95240 Dear Ms. ]teimche: My purpose in writing you is to request that another look may be given to the parking situation at Lodi Racquetball & Swim Club It has been almost eight months since the "No Parking" signs have been installed by the City. Of course, to say the least, this - has affected our business! We have, in all honesty, done all the City has asked us to do since the inception of this project. We installed a frontage road with sidewalks and gutters at a cost of $40,000, which was then given to the City as a gift.,. We installed a new parking lot in the rear of Max Hittle's home on our south side at a cost of $8,000, plus'a monthly lease payment of $500.00. The council asked us to look for property to purchase. We have, but to no avail. The-northside property is up for sale, but. at a price that is beyond our means and likewise on our southside. The property is up for sale, but beyond our means. The property directly behind us is not up for sale, so that leaves us with . parking in the leased property, in our front parking lot and on the east side of the frontage road and on the east side of Hutchins. I have waited until now to attemp to re -open discussions withyou hoping a change of decision might be made on your part. I asked` Jack Ronsko to send me copies of the proposals made to the Council back in May, 1981. In looking them over, you will notice that the Public Works Department suggested to the City Council that they approve the "modified design", which is the last page of a group of 12 (Exhibit "H") . ! f✓ �vwi &L 1900 SOUTH HUTCHINS • LODI, CALIFORNIA 95240 • (209) 334-2297 o May 18, 1982 Page 2 Of course, as you know, the previous Council decided to accept Exhibit "F" which, as said before, has caused several problems: 1. Parking tickets to our customers B 2. Diffi.w -] roY '31 c%) v - 1 , of our busyness. 3. Lack of parking spaces We would, at this time, appreciate your consideration and accep- tance of the Public Workds proposal dated, May 18,1981. We would also appreciate it, if you would look at Exhibit "G", which is the design that would suit us most. Of course, the advantages would be: 1. No more parking tickets, which would relieve the Police Department to more important work and re lieve the frustration of our customers in having - to pay $20.00 for a ticket because they parked on the wrong side of the frontage road. 2.' It would give us ten "additional" parking spaces in Exhibit "H" or thirty additional spaces in Exhibit "G". J. It would allow large trucks to come into the business from the south and continue north from the frontage road. Of course, we would help for whatever cost would be incurred to 7 install stripping, signs or blacktop over the present dirt area between the frontage road and Hutchins; and, as awa.ys we will k cooperate 100`8. Thank you for your time in listening to our request,.and we look forward to an action on your part that will heip relieve our present situation. ,most sincerely, Gary J.

GLOES, laity manager March 16, 1981 Hutchins Street/Lodi Sports Center Parking Congestion 6 Deficiency BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Lodi Planning Commission in 1978, reviewed and approved the request for a Use Permit to re-establish a private swim and athletic club at 1900 South Hutchins St. The plan submitted at that time Included a 19 stall parking lot on their property and a 28 stall parking lot on the adjacent prgperty to the south owned by the Hittles. however, the Planning Commission determined that the on-site 19 stalls would be adequate with the 28 stat.is serving as a bonus. The Zoning Ordinance requires the Planning Conmission to determine the required off-street parking for tw s type of use. In October of 1979. the Planning Commission approved the parcel map for the Lodi Sports Center which Joined the proposed Ilittle parcel (for parking) to the proposed development. In February of 19809 the City was In- forma; that tho project could not be constructed as originally proposed since acquisition of the Hittle property would not be economically feasible. in May of 1980, thl Planning Commission approved a modified Use Permlt for the facility allowing for a change In location for the additional parking. This proposal moved the parking from the Hittle parcel to tha property to the north owned by Jake Ferguson. The Ferguson property acquisition did not take place and development took place with only the. 19 required an -site parking stalls. One condition that was common to all of the approvals by the Planning Commission, was the dedleetion of the necessary rights of way for the Hutchins Street frontage road and the construction of these Improvements. The attached Exhibit A is a copy of the adopted specific Plan for Hutchins St. which shows a geometric section of the frontage road as having two,ttavel lanes with parking only on the asst side. The attached Cxhlbit 8 shows `the Sports Center development, Including the developed frontage road to! -ether with the adjacent properties. This exhibit shawa the 16 on-site parking stalls provided by Lodi Sports Center. Between Century Blvd. and the Lodi Sports Center north property line, there aro 35 legal on -street spaces on futchirs Street ane the frentage road. However, during peek hours, we have witnessed over Ca7vEh1'cIas parked in the Immediate area when using the Lodi Sports Center facility. During these peak hours (4:00 p.m: to MOO p.m. week days), parxing 'Is taking place on both sides of the frontage road (with cars parked in both directions), on Hutchins Street and in the on-site parking Sots of Lodi Sports Center and Hlttles. This reflects only the current parking problem and it is"anticlpated, as summer approaches, that this problem will Increase once the outdoor City Council March.16, 19$1 Page 2 Pool facility Is utilized. Lodi Sports Center expects another 40 vehicles this s . r dur1no ­�A,P9� The only real solution to the parking pDoblem is additional on-site parking. However, since the City requirement was met, the City cannot require additional parking to be installed. On Exhibit B, highlighted to yellow, are those areas or p.+rcels that could be considered for providing additional on-site parking. tune of these parcels. are awned by Lodi Sports Center. The Fire f0epartment indicates their major problems to be: 1. Cars parked In the red zones fronting the Lodi Sports Canter and property blocking the building fire connection and fire hydrentO. 2. Cars blocking access to the Hittle property. 3. Fire trucks unable to turn around or exit from.tho area. 4. Snorkel unable to coke turn at Century with Harking on both sides of frontage road. The Lodi Sportz-Center currently has 1100 paid members (500t applications) and expects its membership to increase to 1400-1600 by this summer.

Exhibit G - this shows angled parking on one side and conversion of this portion of the frontage road to a one-way street and provides for 54 on -street parking spaces. it should be noted that this can be only an interin proposal until sach time as the Finnegan and Ferguson parcels develop. This alternate would require striping of the diagonal stalls and their removal ($1100) at a later crate. This proposal provides for an exit only on to Hutchins Street frog. the frontage road at the northerly property line of the Lodi Sporte`•Center. m City Council March 16, 1981 Paso 3 Exh:�it H - this is a modified design which provides for two-way traffic up to the Lodi Sports Center and one-way traffic north of the Lodi Sports Center drlvaway. It Includes a 210 access on to Hutchins St. frm. the frontage road and provides for 47 on -street parking spaces.
