REGULAR CALENDAR
Council was apprised that sometime ago, the City tendered a
grant application to the Economic Development Administration
asking for $560,000 as 70% of a total project cost of $800,000
for the East Area Storm Drain Project. The project basically
/
is the continuation of the present Cluff Avenue Assessment
District Storm Drain south to tie into existing mains near
00
C-1 Basin on Industrial Way and the construction of a storm
JCC-%
drain lift station near the intersection of Cluff and Pine.
Funds are available for the City funded portion of the work.
Staff has reviewed the conditions of the grant regarding the
completion of the plans, start of construction and statutory
requirements regarding conformance to certain laws and acts
of the federal government and feel that there is no problem
in -conforming to the requirements.
EDA GRANT
Following discussion, on motion of Councilman Pinkerton,
OFFER FOR EAST
Murphy second, Council adopted Resolution No. 82-92 accepting
AREA STORM DRAIN
the grant offer from the United States Department of Commerce
PROJECT
Economic Development Administration for completion of the East
Area Storm Drain project on Cluff Avenue and authorizing the
RES. NO. 82-92
City Manager and City Clerk to execute the offer for the City
,—
and any other documents necessary during the life of the grant,
including right-of-way agreements.
Council was apprised that -
1982-83 TRANSPOR-
The City's claim for the 1982-83 TDA funds includes all the
TATION DEVELOP-
projects which are being considered for construction during
MENT ACT CLAIM
the next fiscal year. Those projects are shown on an
exhibit presented to Council. This action is not approving
projects for construction. It just gives the city the
t)
flexibility to use TDA funds on these projects if they are
included in the City of Lodi's 82-83 TIP. It also includes
$44,000 which will be used for the Dial -A -Ride system and
$11,068 as the City's contribution to the Transportation Planning
process.
The amount being claimed from TDA funds for the fiscal year
82-83 includes the city's 1982-83 approved area apportionment
($542,332), the 20V non -motorized apportionment ($11,068),
and the unclaimed 81-82 apportionment ($127,953).
In order to claim the 2% non -motorized apportionment, the Council
must find and include in the resolution that apportionment can
best be used for street and road projects which include the
installation of handicapped ramps, thereby meeting the intent
of non -motorized portion of the claim.
j
The TDA funds will be used in conjunction with other City funds
for the Transportation Improvement Program as well as the
maintenance of our streets.
RES. NO. 82-95
On motion of Councilman Pinkerton, Murphy second, Council
adopted Resolution No. 82-95 approving the City of Lodi's
1982-83 Transportation Development Act Claim and authorizing
the City Manager to execute the document on behalf of the

TURNER/CLUFF RIGHT Agenda item K-6 "Clarification of Turner/Cluff Road right -of
OF -WAY way" was introduced by Staff. The following Staff report
!L� was presented by Public Works Director Ronsko:
In January of this year, the City Council received a copy of
the attached letter dated January 14, 1982, from Morris and
Wenell Architects requesting that the City purchase the
right-of-way fronting the Jerome and Snell parcels in order
that Turner Road could be constructed to its full width to
accommodate the anticipated traffic from the proposed Cal
Cushion Development within the Willow Oaks Industrial
Park. The Council then gave staff direction to obtain
appraisals on the Jerome and Snell parcels. At the following
Council meeting a memo dated March 5, 1982, was reviewed with
the City Council. The Council indicated that the questions
within this memo would be answered upon obtaining the appraisals
for the Snell and Jerome properties.
The Council has now directed staff to proceed on the acquisition
of the Jerome property and the Snell appraisal. Therefore,
the following questions from the March 5 memo still need u
clarification:
I. Since Cal Cushion is apparently not going to develop `—
within the Willow Oaks Subdivision, does this change
any previous Council positions?
2. Is it the Council's intention to also acquire the Turner
Road rights-of-way frcn ting the Anagnos property?
3. Once the right-of-way is obtained, is it the City's
intent to pay for any of the widening of Turner Road?
The estimated right-of-way acquisition costs and construction
costs are shown below:
Total R/W Costs Construction Cost Total
$50,000 to $180,000 $53,000 $103,000 to 3233,000
Based on the attached letter fromIthe City Attorney dated
January 21, 1982, the Willow Oaks Industrial Park developer
apparently indicated to the City Attorney that they
(Willow Oaks Industrial Park) would pay for the street
improvements fronting the Snell and Jerome properties if
the City purchased the right-of-way.
4. If Turner Road is to be widened at City cost, is the
widening to take place in front of Jerome, Snell and
Anagnos properties?
5. If widening is to take place, is it the Council's intent
to construct all of the street improvements including
parking lane, curb, gutter, sidewalk, street lights, or
only those improvements necessary to provide ultimate
travel lane?
-7-
27:1
Continued August 18,
1982
6. If it is the Council's intent for the City to be responsible
for widening, does the Council want to consider reimbursement
at the time the properties develop or convert to a higher
use?
7. Does the Council have any preference on what City funds
should be used for the right-of-way acquisition and any
Turner Road widening?
1
Other background information and memoranda were reviewed for
j
Council's benefit by Mr. Ronsko. A very lengthy discussion
followed. Mrs. Jan Snell and Mr. Leo Anagnos, property owners
in the subject area, gave testimony to the Council pertaining
to the subject. A full transcript of this section of the
Council meeting is on file in the office of the City Clerk.
Following additional discussion with questions being directed
to Staff and to those persons who had given testimony, Council,
on motion of Mayor Pro Tempore Murphy, Olson second, took the
following actions pertaining to the clarification of Turner
Road rights-of-way acquisitions and construction between
Beckman Road and Cluff Avenue:
