EXPENDITURE OF ASSET SEIZURE FUNDS TO PURCHASE COMPUTER EQUIPMENT FOR THE INVESTIGATIONS DIVISION AND NEW FIREARMS AND RELATED SAFETY EQUIPMENT FOR THE LODI POLICE DEPARTMENT APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. 92-122 CC -6 The City Council adopted Resolution No. 92-122 authorizing CC -20 the allocation of $86,000 from the Asset Seizure Fund to CC -47 purchase computer equipment for the Investigations Division CC -152 and new firearms and related safety equipment for the Lodi CC -300 Police Department. 4 Continued July 15, 1992 REVISED CLASS SPECIFICATIONS FOR WASTEWATER PLANT OPERATOR I/II, WATER/WASTEWATER SUPERVISOR_ AND PLANT AND EQUIPMENT MECHANIC APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. 92-123 CC -34 The City Council adopted Resolution No. 92-123 approving CC -300 revised class specifications for Wastewater Plant Operator I/II, Water/Wastewater Supervisor and Plant and Equipment Mechanic. The City Council was advised that the City has been mandated by the California State Department of Health Services to install Granular Activated Carbon filtration systems on designated well sites. It has also mandated that the classifications operating and maintaining these systems possess a Water Treatment Qperator Certificate, Grade II. The Water/Wastewater Supervisor and Plant and Equipment Mechanic are the classifications affected by this requirement and their specifications have been amended accordingly. The current class specification for the Wastewater Plant Operator I/II limits the City's ability to recruit qualified individuals for the journey level - Operator II - position. The amended class specification permits expansion of our applicant pool by allowing required certification to be substituted for specified experience. AMENDED SALARY RANGES FOR WATER/WASTEWATER SUPERVISOR AND PLANT AND EQUIPMENT MECHANIC APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. 92-124 CC -34 The City Council adopted Resolution No. 92-124 approving CC -300 an amended salary schedule for Water/Wastewater Supervisor and Plant and Equipment Mechanic. A Grade II Water Treatment Operator Certificate is now required for the classifications of Plant and Equipment Mechanic and Water/Wastewater Supervisor. This is mandated because of the addition of the Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) filtration system operation and maintenance to the duties of Plant and Equipment Mechanic and Water/Wastewater Supervisor. Due to this change in minimum qualifications, a 5$ salary increase has been negotiated retroactively to March 30, 1992 for those employees possessing the certificate and July 6, 1992 for those who need to obtain it. The proposed monthly salary ranges are as follows: Plant & Equipment Mechanic A B C D E 2,165.22 2,273.46 2,387.14 2,506.52 2,631.86 5 a7s v Continued July 15, 1992 Water/Wastewater Supervisor A B C D E 2,588.10 2,717.48 2,853.38 2,996.04 3,145.83 ITEM REMOVED FROM AGENDA Agenda item #F-12 entitled, "Salary compensation amendments for previously adopted schedules for Police Dispatchers and Maintenance and Operators" was removed from the agenda. ELECTRICAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT AT GRAPE BOWL (STADIUM), 221 LAWRENCE STREET, LODI APPROVED CC -6 The City Council approved the proposed electrical CC -7(c) improvement project for the Lodi Grape Bowl (Stadium). CC -133 The City Council was advised that in 1989 Hans Hansen, Assistant Utility Director, addressed a potential electrical problem at the Grape Bowl. Hansen stated that the stadium had inadequate electrical service and antiquated direct buried cable which made this facility "an accident waiting to happen" meaning that whenever the facility was used under lights a complete blackout could occur. Hansen's feeling was that something should be done to correct this potential situation as soon as possible. After reviewing these concerns .the City hired HCS Engineering Inc. to evaluate the situation at the Grape Bowl and their findings supported Hansen's recommendations. This firm also addressed the amount of light at field level, and suggested that something be done to improve this situation. The City Utility Department and Parks and Recreation Director Williamson agree that the City proceed with upgrading the stadium electrical system and addressing the amount of light available at field level. Our plan is to move ahead with redirecting and cleaning existing lights and fixtures and to place additional lights and fixtures removed from the Kofu Park light project midway up the light towers to guarantee us the necessary candle power at field level for our athletic activities. At the conclusion of the high school football season we would then complete the project by bringing in the necessary electrical service and replacing the direct buried cable. The Parks and Recreation Director is comfortable that this method, at a cost of $90,000.00 to $100,000.00, will provide us with an excellent solution and at a savings from the original engineering estimate of $130,000.00. �� Continued July 15, 1992 DELETION OF LODI ARTS COMMISSION FROM THE FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION (FPPC) REPORT REQUIREMENTS RESOLUTION NO. 92-126 CC -2(k) The Lodi City Council adopted Resolution No. 92-126 CC -7(v) entitled, "A Resolution of the Lodi City Council Repealing CC -300 and Reenacting Resolution No. 92-107 Thereby Amending City of Lodi Conflict of Interest Code for various City Boards and Commission Members and Designated Employees. CC -6 The City Council certified that the City of Lodi is in CC -7(b) conformity with the Congestion Management Plan (CMP) of San CC -35 Joaquin County for the period of January 1, 1992 through June 30, 1992. On January 1, 1992, the San Joaquin County Congestion Management Plan (CMP) became operative for all jurisdictions in San Joaquin County. This state mandated program was adopted in an attempt to improve congestion on San Joaquin County's highways and major roads and also to improve air quality in the county. State law requires a CMP to be created and for local compliance with the CMP to be annually monitored. The program is linked to new gasoline tax revenues which local governments receive under the provigions of Propositions 111 and 108, approved by the voters in June 1990. Failure to comply with CMP requirements can jeopardize the City's share of these new revenues. 7 The City Council was reminded that at the June 17, 1992 Council meeting, the Council adopted Resolution No. 92-107 which specified the employees, officers, and members of Boards and Commissions who were subject to Conflict of Interest reporting. Although it had been previously determined that since the Lodi Arts Commission had no independent budget authority it should be removed from the list, it was accidentally included in Exhibit "A" of the Resolution. Resolution No. 92-107 itself does not contain reference to the Arts Commission. However, the Arts Commission was inadvertently included in Exhibit "A" to Resolution No. f 92-107. It is now necessary that No..92-126 repealing and reenacting Resolution No. 92-107 be adopted and forwarded to the Fair Political Practices Commission if the Arts Commission is to be excluded from reporting requirements. CERTIFICATION OF THE CITY OF LODI'S COMPLIANCE WITH THE CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (CMP) OF SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY FOR THE PERIOD OF JANUARY 1, 1992 TO JUNE 30, 1992 CC -6 The City Council certified that the City of Lodi is in CC -7(b) conformity with the Congestion Management Plan (CMP) of San CC -35 Joaquin County for the period of January 1, 1992 through June 30, 1992. On January 1, 1992, the San Joaquin County Congestion Management Plan (CMP) became operative for all jurisdictions in San Joaquin County. This state mandated program was adopted in an attempt to improve congestion on San Joaquin County's highways and major roads and also to improve air quality in the county. State law requires a CMP to be created and for local compliance with the CMP to be annually monitored. The program is linked to new gasoline tax revenues which local governments receive under the provigions of Propositions 111 and 108, approved by the voters in June 1990. Failure to comply with CMP requirements can jeopardize the City's share of these new revenues. 7 o Continued July 15, 1992 The San Joaquin County CMP has a self -certification program to determine conformity with the CMP. Annually, each jurisdiction must fill out a check list and certify that they are in compliance. The check list must be accompanied by a Certification Statement adopted by the local jurisdiction's governing board, stating that to the best of its knowledge, the jurisdiction is conforming with the CMP. The annual monitoring to determine compliance will take place in September of every year, with the compliance material due by July 31 each year. Because the CMP program went into effect on January 1, 1992, this first review will only cover the period from January 1, 1992 through June 30, 1992. The Community Development Department has determined the City is in compliance with the CMP and recommended that the City Council consider certifying the City's conformity. CITY COUNCIL SUPPORTS THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE VISION 2000 REGIONAL GROWTH MANAGEMENT TASK FORCE RESOLUTION NO. 92-125 CC -6 The City Council adopted Resolution No. 92-125 supporting CC -117 the recommendations of the Vision 2000 Regional Growth CC -300 Management Task Force.

The City Council was in agreement with the Task Force recommendation and the proposed resolution will formally transmit this concurrence. INTRODUCTION OF ORDINANCE PLACING A FIVE -MILE PER HOUR SPEED LIMIT ON LODI LAKE ORDINANCE NO. 1553 INTRODUCED CC -24(b) The City Council was CC -27(c) 18, 1992, it decided CC -149 Mokelumne River would of boats on the lake Signs indicating the 5 reminded that at its meeting of March that access between Lodi Lake and the be opened, but that the speed limit would be limited to 5 miles per hour. MPH limit have been posted. It has been pointed out by the Sheriff's office that to make the 5 MPH speed limit enforceable, it will require an ordinance, which must also be submitted to the California Department of Boating and Water Safety. If the Council wishes to enforce the 5 MPH limit on Lodi Lake, it will be necessary to put in place such an ordinance. The City Council introduced Ordinance No. 1553 entitled, "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Lodi 8 Continued July 15, 1992 Amending Chapter 10.20 of the Lodi Municipal Code by Adding Thereto a New Section 10.20.040 Limiting Speeds of Boats on Lodi Lake.

Mayor Pinkerton indicated that we need to establish goals and objectives regarding our Economic Development efforts. The continued Economic Development of this City is vital to our survival - we need jobs. With the assistance of the Partnership, we will develop effective strategies - Lodi will be competitive in attracting industry. Mayor Pinkerton stated that he will be asking the Partnership to interview individually all members of this City Council and then we will come together, with public input, and develop the strategies that will make us competitive. There is no reason we shouldn't be getting our share of the action. Mayor Pinkerton sees this as the first step in getting aggressive in Economic Development. The City will keep all informed as we move forward in this area. 9 7' 7 Continued July 5, 1992 MAYOR PINKERTON ANNOUNCES THAT HE WILL NOT BE SEEKING RE-ELECTION CC -18 Mayor Pinkerton announced that he will not run for CC -108 re-election in the November 3, 1992 General Municipal Election thereby bringing to a close a 20 -year career in city politics. In his prepared statement, the Mayor applauded efforts of the various city councils of which he has been a part during his political career, citing many of their accomplishments; praising an outstanding level of service provided by the City's various departments; and acknowledging an efficient City staff and an understanding family for the work he was able to do. RECESS Mayor Pinkerton declared a five-minute recess and the City Council reconvened at approximately 7:50 p.m. COMMUNITY URGED TO SUPPORT AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY'S FUND RAISER "RAZZLE DAZZLE" Council Member Snider urged the community to support this year's American Cancer Society fund raiser, "Razzle Dazzle" being held August 6, 1992 at Wine and Roses Country Inn. COMMENTS BY THE PUBLIC ON NON AGENDA ITEMS The following comments were received under the "Comments by the public on non -agenda items" segment of the agenda: COMMUNITY SUPPORT OF SU SALUD Dr. Dario Marenco, 619 North Tuxedo, Stockton addressed the City Council regarding Su Salud, a health and education fair being held on Sunday, July 19, 1992 at the San Joaquin County Fair Grounds and thanked the Lodi business community for its support of the event. LODI BOYS' AND GIRLS' CLUB ROCK AND ROLL PARTY 192 Deanna Enright of the Lodi Boys' and Girls' Club addressed the City Council urging the community to attend "Rock and Roll Party, 192" being held on July 25, 1992 at the Lodi Grape Bowl. CITIZEN VOICES COMPLAINTS CC -16 Ngujen To Can, P. 0. Box 9077, Stockton addressed the City Council regarding her driver's license being suspended and numerous other complaints. PUBLIC HEARINGS Notice thereof having been published according to law, an affidavit of which publication is on file in the office of the City Clerk, Mayor Pinkerton called for the Public Hearing to consider the appeal of Edie Houston of the 10 Continued July 15, 1992 Planning Commission's conditional approval of the request of Terry Piazza, Baumbach and Piazza, Inc., Consulting Engineers, on behalf of Bruce Towne for approval of the Tentative Subdivision Map of Towne Ranch, Unit No. 1, a 21.4 acre, 107 unit single-family residential subdivision located at 398 East Turner Road (APN 029-030-42). APPEAL REGARDING TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP OF TOWNE RANCH UNIT NO. 1 CC -16 The City Council was advised that Edie Houston is appealing CC -46 the Planning Commission's approval of.the Tentative Parcel CC -53(a) Map of Towne Ranch, Unit No. 1 because she believes that all lots abutting the Park West Subdivision should have a minimum of 6,500 square feet which is the minimum lot size in Lodi's R-1, Single -Family Residential District. She backs her argument by referring to Ordinance No. 1529 which states: "The parcels at 150 East Turner Road (APN 029-030-01) and 398 East Turner Road (APN 029-030-42) (proposed Towne Ranch development) are hereby prezoned R-1, Single -Family Residential and R-2, Single -Family Residential." The text does not designate what lots or areas are to be zoned either R-1 or R-2. The staff report for the November 6, 1991 Council meeting also states R-1 and R-2, again without any lot or area designation. However, the Planning Commission's recommendation indicates R-2 zoning for the entire site. In fact, the Planning Commission's approval of the Tentative Subdivision Map was made with the conclusion that the entire area was zoned R-2. At the Planning Commission hearing on the prezoning, Terry Piazza indicated that his clients wanted R-2 zoning throughout Towne Ranch and were dropping any request for R-1 designation. The Community Development Director and the City Attorney indicated that Ordinance No. 1529 entitled, "An Ordinance of the Lodi City Council Amending the Official District Map of the City of Lodi and Thereby Prezoning the 100.1 Acre Parcel Located at 150 East Turner Road (APN 029-030-01) and 398 East Turner Road (APN 029-030-42) (Proposed Towne Ranch Development) R-1, Single -Family Residential and R-2 Single -Family Residential, with a Condition Relating to School Facilities Funding" adopted November 20, 1991 was flawed. Community Development Director Schroeder further stated that this is a zoning matter. It was determined that the City Council could take no formal action at this time and that the entire matter required review and reconsideration. The Tentative Subdivision Map of Towne Ranch, Unit No. 1 was therefore laid on the table. 11 d8i Continued July 15, 1992 In addition to the required legal advertising for public hearings, those persons who were in the audience regarding this matter were asked to leave their names and addresses so that they could be notified as to when the matter would be before the Lodi Planning Commission and/or the City Council for reconsideration. RECESS The Mayor declared a five-minute recess and the City Council reconvened at approximately 8:15 p.m. PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THE FINAL DRAFT OF THE REGIONAL HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE ELEMENT CONTINUED CC -24(d) Notice thereof having being published according to law, an affidavit of such publication being on file in the office of the City Clerk; Mayor Pinkerton called for the public hearing to receive public comments on the Final Draft of the Regional Household Hazardous Waste Element (HHWE).
