RATE INCREASE
City Clerk Reimche presented a letter which had
APPLIED FOR BY
been received from the Lodi Ambulance Service,
LODI AMBULANCE
Inc. stating that due to rising costs of supplies and
SERVICE
overhead, Lodi Ambulance Service has done a cost
projection for 1979 and deem it necessary to apply

schedule of the proposed rate increase was presented
for Council's perusal.
City Clerk Reimche reminded the Council that
Section 2A-3 of the City Code provide -s that --"such
rates shall not be changed or modified in any
manner without first filing the changed or modified
rates with the City Council thirty days prior to the
effective date of such change or modification".
Further, the City Code provides that the City
Council reserves the right to finally determine and
fix, by resolution, the rates to be charged by the
operator of the ambulance service.
LETTER RECD FROM The City Clerk presented a letter from City
CITY ATTORNEY Attorney Robert H. Mullen announcing his retire -
ANNOUNCING HIS ment effective as of July 31, 1979 and urging that
RETIREMENT his successor be retained on a full-time basis.
PETITION RE NOISE
The City Clerk presented a letter from the
ORDINANCE REFERRED
Community Development Director apprising that at
TO PLANNING
its meeting of Monday, March 7, 1979, the City
COMMISSION -
Council received a petition requesting "a law pro-
hibiting avoidable land noises in general". The re-
quest has been interpreted to mean the adoption of
a Noise Ordinance. The Council was reminded that
some years ago the Community Development
Department prepared a Noise Ordinance based on
the League of California Cities Model. Following
discussion, on motion of Councilman Katnich,
Katzakian second, Council referred the matter to
the Planning Commission for review and recom-
mendation.

Minutes of March 21, 1979, continued 20
ZONING PETITION The City Clerk presented a letter from the Community
REFERRED TO STAFF Development Director apprising that at its meeting of
FOR CLARIFICATION Wednesday, March 7, 1979, the City Council received
a petition requesting that the area bounded by Louie
Avenue, Pleasant Avenue, Daisy Avenue and California
Street be rezoned from R -MD, Medium Density
Multiple Family Residential to "a zone which is existing
or may be created that limits the number of new dwell-
ina.units permitted on any one lot of 9, 000 square feet
to a maximum of two dwelling units per lot". The
petition was accompanied by a letter signed by Mr.
Lawrence Wilson asking that the Council waive all
fees in connection with this request. Since the City's
Zoning Ordinance does not contain a classification which
is even close to the one described, besides rezoning the
property the Council will be required to adopt a new
zoning district. - The fees estimated to accomplish the
petitioner's request are $980.00. Council was also in-
formed that Staff has determined that if the subject area
was rezoned as requested in the petition eight noncon-
forming uses would be required, with two other ones
possible. The new zone would also restrict the devel-
opment of additional apartment structures in the area.
Following discussion with questions being directed to
Staff, Council, on motion of Councilman Hughes,
Katnich second, directed the Community Development
Director to contact the petitioners regarding the subject
petition to ascertain precisely what they wished to
accomplish with their Petition and asked Mr. Schroeder
to report back to the City Council at a future meeting on
his findings.
ROSE SENT TO Mayor Pinkerton directed that a rose be sent to Super -
SUPERVISOR FONDSE visor Adrian Fondse as a token of praise of his criticism
ON CRITICISM OF AIR of the Air Resources Board on its recent Staff Report
RESOURCES BOARD on the San Joaquin Air Pollution Control Plan which it
termed "inadequate". Knowing that the preparation of
the Plan involved many hours of work by elected officials,
private citizens and local government employees, Mayor
Pinkerton expressed his belief that Supervisor Fondse's
criticism was justified.
