In making its decision the Planning Commission drew the following conclusions: 1. that the subject properties were not affected any more than the hundreds of other properties which were rezoned to R-1, Single Family Residential under the Eastside Rezoning; and 2. that the properties could be redeveloped with a four-plex or two single-family houses which would be more compatible with the adjacent residential properties. The following person spoke on behalf of the appeal: 1. RoseMarie Mendonca, 2 North Cherokee Lane, Lodi There being no other persons wishing to speak on the matter, the public portion of the hearing was closed.

ADULT CROSSING GUARD STUDY AT ELM STREET AND MILLS AVENUE AND -ELM STREET AND LOMA DRIVE REVIEWED Following review of the Adult Crossing Guard Study at Elm Street and Mills Avenue and Elm Street and Loma Drive, the CC -7(e) City Council approved the placement of an adult crossing CC -43 guard, at City expense, at the intersection of Elm Street CC -48(a) and Loma Drive. CC -48(h) - The Lodi Unified School District (LUSD) sent letters requesting the Public Works Department study the Elm Street and Mills Avenue, and Elm Street and Loma Drive intersections for an adult crossing guard. Staff performed the necessary studies for an adult crossing guard in accordance with the guidelines adopted by Caltrans. The guidelines require that at least 40 elementary school pedestrians use the crossing when going to or from school each of any two hours daily and the traffic volume exceeds 350 vehicles when the major street has no control. The traffic volume must exceed 500 vehicles when the major street is controlled by stop signs. The results of the vehicle and pedestrian counts are as follows: TYPE OF MORNING CONTROL ON COUNT LOCATION MAJOR ST. VEH PED* Elm/Mills Elm/Loma Stop None 424 34 389 35 VOLUMES NECESSARY AFTERNOON TO SATISFY COUNT WARRANT WARRANT VEH PED* VEH PED SATISFIED 412 46 500 40 No 416 53 350 40 No *Note: Student bicycles were included as pedestrians While performing the traffic count, staff observed parents double parking on Elm Street, parking in the bus zone, and making illegal U-turns near Loma Drive. Parents exiting the school's driveway located near the Elm Street and Loma Drive crosswalks cause additional congestion. Staff reviewed the accident records for the last 4 years and 10 months and there have been 8 vehicle versus vehicle accidents and 1 vehicle versus bicycle accident at Elm 12 172 Continued November 16, 1988 Street/Mills Avenue. A primary collision factor could not be determined for the vehicle versus bicycle accident. The officer felt the motorist had an unsafe starting movement and the bicyclist was illegally riding in the crosswalk. At the Elm Street/Loma Drive intersection, there have been 2 vehicle versus vehicle accidents and no bicycle accidents for the same time period. There have been no reported pedestrian versus vehicle accidents at either intersection. Both intersections have student patrols and they appear to be controlling the student pedestrians properly. Staff also considered redirecting pedestrians from Elm Street/Mills Avenue to Elm Street/Loma Drive in order to satisfy the adult crossing guard warrant. However, staff feels crossing pedestrians at a four-way stop intersection with student patrols is safer than at an uncontrolled street with an adult crossing guard. The City of Lodi's crossing guard agreement with -the LUSD states that the City has a statutory duty to reimburse the School District for costs of employing school crossing guards if the requisite criteria are met. The primary criterion is the data shall be measured against the warrants of the Traffic Manual published and adopted by Caltrans.
