serve for perpetuity as parking lots only for those
structures.
The motion was seconded by Councilman Hughes and

ORDNANCE NO. 1253
INTRODUCED
RECESS
By reference, Council made the following findings
inclusive of these motions:
a) On November 18, 1981, Council approved the
General Plan Amendment of this parcel and it is
now the request of the applicant to have this parcel
rezoned consistent with the General Plan designation.
Therefore, in order to make the rezoning consistent
with the General Plan, Ordinance No. 1253 is hereby
introduced rezoning the parcel at 1001 Windsor Drive,
Lodi, (Assessor's Parcel No. 031-103-21) from R-1,
Single -Family Residential to R -C -P, Residential -
Commercial -Professional with the restrictions here-
tofore listed.
Council declared a 5 minute recess at 9:30 p.m. ,
Council reconvened at 9:35 p.m.
Notice thereof having been published in accordance
with law and affidavit of publication being on file
in the office of the City Clerk, Mayor McCarty
called for the Public Hearing to consider the request
of Ted Katzakian, et al, to ;zone the Kennedy Ranch
subdivision located on the west side of Lower
Sacramento Road, northerly of the future extension
of West Elm Street from U -H, Unclassified Holding
to P -D (23), Planned Development District No. 23
with the following conditions:
1. That the density of the areas designated for
cluster housing be a maximun of 15 units
per acre;
2. That the cluster housing areas conform to the
requirements of the City's R -GA, Garden
Apartment Residential District, except for
density;
3. That the single-family residential areas conform
to the City's R-2, Single -Family Residential
District; and
4. That the project conform to the Specific Plan
for Lower Sacramento Road betc-.e en West
Turner Road and West Lodi Avenue.
The matter was introduced by Community Development
Director Schroeder, who presented an indepth report
regarding the subdivision and diagrams depicting
the subject area.
Mr. Ted Katzakian, 330 S. Fairmont Avenue, Lodi
then addressed the Council stating that their
organization have been on a long road to reach the
point of where they are this evening with the
tentative map. The economy has reached the point
to where they feel we are going to start a slow
recovery, hopefully, in our industry and just reading
the newspapers, the State and Federal Governments
are now looking at ways to stimulate the economy
by assisting the housing and the automobile industries
which basically have been hit the hardest.

:1 I m
Continued March 17, 1982
Mr. Katzakian further stated that the subject
property was annexed to the City in 1978. The
zoning they are requesting meets the density
requirements and is consistant with the general
plan. Mr. Katzakian stated that they are in
agreement with the conditions spelled out by
the Planning Commission and have agreed upon
the Lake being taken out and putting in a park.
He stated that they are attempting to fulfill their
obligations with the school district. Mr. Katzakian
further stated that they are providing in this
tentative map, an adequate buffer to the adjoining
properties so as not to curtail their respective
agricultural activities. This subdivision will be
very similiar to that of Aladdin Gardens. Mr.
Katzakian further stated that as far as the use of
the land for condominiums they don't have any
specific layouts done on those parcels until they
settle with the school district to find out exactly
how much acreage they want in lieu of the bedroom
tax.
Mr. Katzakian then responded to questions regarding
the subject as were directed by Council.
Asking for a clarification of "Pond", was Mr. Earl
Andorff, 400 North Lower Sacramento Road, Lodi.
Community Development Director Schroeder stated
that the meaning of "Pond" in this particular case is a
park storm drainage retention basin such as are
located throughout the City.
R. J. Terwillegher, J 1000 West Turner Road, Lodi
addressed the Council stating that he was not against
the project as such but he was concerned their being
able to continue their farming operations (Towne
Family farming operation). Mr. Terwillegher then read
from Measure A, that portion pertaining to a buffer zone.
Mr. Wilbert Ruhl, 3933 Almond Drive, Lodi addressed
the Council stating that he has always maintained
that Lower Sacramento Road was a perfect buffer
zone and that this property is located in the middle
of Agricultural land. Mr. Ruhl stated that he thought
Agricultural land should be protected in this area.
Mr. Ruhl then read for the Council paragraph three
of the Green Belt Initiative, stating that this was
law and that he didn't see where the "buffer zone
had taken place". Mr. Ruhl further stated "there's
no protection to the farmer in that area on this deal".
Mr. Andorff, 400 North Lower Sacramento Road,
Lodi, further addressed the Council stating that
he can't think of any place else in the City where
the residences have been subjected to the kind of
situation where you have 22 acres of proposed high
density homes. Mr, Andorff stated he didn't feel
there was much need or market for condominiums.
Speaking in rebuttal was Mr. James Gerard, 330 S.
Fairmont Avenue, Lodi.
Mr. Gerard addressed the need for condominiums
in order to try and keep housing affordable.

THE KENNEDY RANCH
SUBDIVISION LOCATED
ON THE WEST SIDE OF
LOWER SACRAMENTO
ROAD, NORTHERLY OF
THE FUTURE EXTENSION
OF WEST ELM STREET
FROM U -H, UNCLASSI-
FIED HOLDING TO P -D (23)
WITH CONDITIONS
Mr. Gerard addressed Mr. Terwilleger's concerns
regarding the ability to continue farming the Towne
Ranch indicating that there have been two survey
lines between the Kennedy Ranch and the Towne
properties. Charlie Widows, according to Mr.
Gerard, surveyed the line, which was never recorded
and it goes some forty feet north of the existing
deed line. Mr. Gerard stated that they are prepared
to give the Towne family a quitclaim deed to this
property; secondly, they are not permitting any
building within 20 feet of the rear property line and
have designed the lots on both the north and south
side of the Kennedy Ranch which will front on
agricultural developments with an extra 20 feet of
depth. Further, there is about 20 feet from the first
row of vines in the Towne Ranch to the set back line.
Therefore, basically they would be prepared to have
a 60 foot buffer zone in this particular area. Mr.
Gerard further stated that there is a tremendous
pent up demand for housing in the City of Lodi,
and when interest rates come down, there is going
to be a shortage of lots in Lodi. Mr. Gerard then pre-
sented transparencies of existing situations in the
City where housing is next to farming.
Additional rebuttal and questions regarding Mr.
Gerard's comments were presented by Mr. Andorff
and Mr. Ruhl.
There being no other persons wishing to speak on
the matter, the public portion of the hearing was
closed.
On motion of Councilman Katnich, Murphy second,
Council established the following findings in this
matter:
a) The area has been in the General Plan since 1962
as Low Density Residential.
b) The subject property was annexed to the City of
Lodi in 1978 with the zoning classification of
"Unclassified Holding".
c) The zoning must be consistent with the General
Plan and the requested Planned Development
Zoning is consistent with the General Plan.
d) The buffer zone is consistent with the continued
Agricultural productivity in the Green Belt Area
pursuant to Measure A.
Ordinance No. 1254 was introduced rezoning the
Kennedy Ranch Subdivision located on the West side
of Lower Sacramento Road, northerly of the future
extension of West Elm Street from U -H, Unclassified

RES. NO. 82-28 and authorized the City Attorney to prepare an
- _ _ D appropriate year-to-year agreement.
Council was apprised that the 1981-82 budget has
provided $41, 250 for the purchase of 5 police
vehicles. Normally, the City purchases Police
vehicles from the State of California. This year,
the State is purchasing CHP vehicles from Chevrolet.
If the City were to purchase Chevrolets, it would
be necessary to make major modifications to the
screens and equipment brackets to transfer them
from the present vehicles. This cost is estimated
to be $400 to $500 per vehicle . The price from
the State would be $8, 394. 64 per vehicle.

the City Council award the purchase of five (5)
1982 Dodge Diplomat vehicles with police package
to Weil Motors, Inc. of Lodi at a cost of $8,146. 10
per vehicle, including tax. On motion of Councilman

Following introduction of the subject by City Manager
Glaves and Parks and Recreation Director De Benedetti
Council was apprised that the stature of a community
is not measured by size alone but in the way its
physical and cultural needs are met.
With this in mind as being most important and with
the establishment of the Lodi Community Center, which
adheres to the above statement, along with the
constant and concrete evidence of an expanding interest
in the arts, both nationally and locally, it is most
advisable that a Lodi Arts Commission be established
to assist local arts groups to become more reflective
of the wide range of contributive talents existing within
the community.
Such a commission, parallel to and balancing the
existing Recreation Commission, will provide strong
support within the administration of the Lodi
Community Center and will prove a valuable assist
to the City in procuring such monies from regional,
state, and national sources as may be available in
support of the arts and their furtherance.

Continued March 17, 1982
To such end, the following design for the establish-
ment of a Lodi Arts Commission is hereby submitted.
Council received the heretofore referenced material
and a review of the material was presented for
Council's consideration.
Following discussion, Council determined
(a) That the growth and flourishing of art and
culture depend upon freedom, imagination
and individual initiative;
(b) That the encouragement and support of art
and culture, while primarily a matter for
private and local initiative, is also an
appropriate matter of concern of the City of
Lodi.
(c) That this City's prestige and general welfare
will be promoted by providing recognition that art
and culture, and the creative spirit which motivates
them and which they personify, are valued as an —
essential part of the City's resources;
(d) That it is in the best interest of the City of Lodi
to maintain, develop and disseminate the City's
artistic and cultural resources:
(e) That the continued growth of the Arts can no
longer be sustained by traditional resources
and
(f) That in order to implement these findings it is
desirable to establish the Lodi Arts Commission
to provide such recognition and assistance as
will encourage and promote the City's artistic
and cultural progress.
