Barber: ec "During our October 29th "shirt -sleeves" meeting, we discussed the proposed bridge on Chestnut Street over the Woodbridge Irrigation Canal. During the discussion, city staff proposed that if San Joaquin County were to contribute $250,000, that the City of Lodi would provide the design and construction of the proposed bridge. I've considered the city's offer and believe it to be quite reasonable. Accordingly, I would like to make arrangements for the County to make a financial contribution of $250,000 as its share of the expenses associated with the bridge and for the City of Lodi to act as lead agency for design and construction of this project. I believe that for the convenience and safety of both the people of Lodi and the Woodbridge area that this - project should be undertaken at the very earliest possible time. I also believe that an early completion of the project could save both the city and the4county some considerable expenditures for traffic control equipment. I, therefore, would appreciate your response and confirmation of the above at your earliest convenience."

NO. 1371./ INTRO. The 1986 Capital Improvement Program was presented for CC ��\ Council's approval. Minor changes that had been made following the original presentation of this document to Council were reviewed. Following discussion with questions being directed to Staff, Council, on motion of Council Member Snider, Olson second, introduced Ordinance No. 1371 - Ordinance Adopting the 1986 Capital Improvement Program. I .: •« «•,•. � r 4 1:4 , )p4D0• DE LODI Council was reminded that, at its regular meeting of December 4, 1985, the City Council received a petition signed by approximately 225 residents of Casa de Lodi \ rf,,'�(a) requesting the installation of a mid -block crosswalk at the entrances to this mobile home park. The City �C Council asked that this matter be placed on this agenda for discussion. City Manager Peterson pointed out that the City, in the past, has been strongly opposed to the installation of mid -block crosswalks and has discouraged their use. Public Works Director Jack Fonsko, in a memo to the City Manager, made the following points in support of the City's positions: 1. Motorists expect crosswalks and pedestrians at intersections and motorists do not expect crosswalks placed in the middle of a block. -- 2. They may cause pedestrians to have a false sense of security with respect to vehicular traffic. 3. They may cause a greater number of rear -end collisions due to pedestrians not waiting for gaps in traffic. 126 Continued December 18, 1985 4. They may cause an increase in fatal and serious injury accidents because crosswalks are usually considered to be safety devices. However, accident studies :show a disproportionate accident rate in terms of marked versus unmarked crosswalks, probably due to a less cautious pedestrian attitude at unmarked walks. The staff believes that the use this mid -block crosswalk would receive would be quite minimal. It would, for example, not receive the kind of use such a crosswalk would receive in the downtown area. The Public Works Director further advises that the City does not normally paint crosswalks unless the intersections are on a route to school or have a high pedestrian count. Also included for Council's information was a copy of an informal speed survey conducted earlier this year on Turner Road between Beckman Road and Cluff Avenue. Diagrams of the subject area were also presented for Council's perusal. A very lengthy discussion followed with questions being directed to Staff. Addressing the Council regarding the matter were: a) Dr. A. E. Mason, Space 151, Casa de Lodi b) Beryl Georguson, 2223 W. Cochran Road, Lodi Mayor Hinchman moved to adopt Resolution No. 85-186 establishing a speed limit on the full length of Turner Road within the city limits of the City of Lodi of 25 MPH and to establish a mid -block crosswalk on Turner Road in the area of the Casa de Lodi Mobile Home Park.
