6. ACTION ON ITEMS REMOVED FROM THE CONSENT CALENDAR
a) Agenda item #E-10 entitled, "Amend Traffic Resolution to adopt parking time limits on 400
block of West Pine Street".
Public Works Director Prima reported that the City has received a written request to install
a two-hour parking time limit on the south side of the 400 block of Pine Street. Parking on
this block is currently unrestricted, and immediately east the Downtown time limits apply.
(This block is within Zone A-2 of the Downtown Assessment District, thus the change can
be handled administratively.) Parking on this block is heavily used by both employees
and business patrons. However, employees are using the street parking all day, which
limits availability for patrons. Some of the businesses, particularly those located on the
north side of the street, have little on-site parking.
The Finance Department, which handles Downtown parking enforcement, has indicated
they can accommodate the additional zone by extending the route of the Parking
Enforcement Assistant. Unless staff receives direction to the contrary, we will be
installing two-hour time-limited parking on the south side of Pine Street between Lee
Street and Hutchins Street, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., except Sundays and holidays.
Mayor Land indicated that the City received quite a number of letters regarding this matter
from both residences and businesses in the area. It was suggested that this matter be
revisited at a future date to include both sides of the street and proper notification to those
directly involved.
The City Council, on motion of Mayor Land, Nakanishi second, unanimously referred this
matter back to staff.
b) Agenda item #E-14 entitled, "Set Public Hearing for September 15, 1999 to consider a
resolution to establish a policy and fee for fence and landscaping maintenance in new
developments".
Public Works Director Prima reminded the City Council that previous City policy required
new developments having reverse frontage lots to provide a reverse frontage wall/fence
at the back of walk and a 10 -foot landscape easement for tree planting on the parcels
behind the wall. The developer was responsible for the cost of the trees in the landscape
easement and, if the wall were to be publicly maintained, was also required to pay a one-
time lump sum fee of $2.75 per linear foot for the maintenance of the wall. Maintenance
of the trees in the landscape easement was the responsibility of the homeowner.
Current City requirements regarding reverse frontage fences and landscaping have
evolved to include masonry walls with irrigated landscape areas. This has necessitated
establishment of a more comprehensive policy and fee for the maintenance and
replacement of these improvements.
Continued September 1, 1999
The draft report and policy, including a fee recommendation, for funding maintenance and
replacement of fences, walls, landscaping and irrigation improvements prepared by Harris
& Associates was reviewed by staff. Local developers and engineers affected by the
report have been notified and an informational meeting was scheduled for 7 p.m., August
30, 1999, at the Lodi Library.
Council Member Hitchcock questioned if the proposed change was strictly for
maintenance of fences.
Following a brief discussion, the City Council, on motion of Council Member Hitchcock,
Pennino second, unanimously set a Public Hearing for September 15, 1999 to consider a
resolution to establish a policy and fee for fence and landscape maintenance in new
developments.
PUBLIC HEARINGS
None.
8. COMMUNICATIONS (CITY CLERK)
a) The following report was presented to the City Council:
Planning Commission report of August 11, 1999
9. REGULAR CALENDAR
a) Agenda item #H-1 entitled, "Truck parking restrictions Citywide".
Public Works Director Prima reminded the City Council that at its previous meeting, the
Council voted to implement commercial vehicle parking restrictions during daytime hours
Citywide except in industrial areas that are not fronting retail uses. This prohibition would
be in effect for one year, after which the parking would be eliminated completely. Staff
indicated this would take specific language that would need to be developed to ensure
clarity and enforceability. Staff presented a modification to the Lodi Municipal Code
(LMC) to implement this direction (Action 1). In addition, staff presented additional
changes to address some of the other comments raised during the last meeting (Action
2).
Action 1 — Truck Parking
This includes previous Council direction and some "clean-up" language to the current
code. Specifically, amend LMC §10.52.050 as follows:
1. Amend Paragraph A to add "rating (GVWR)" to the weight specification.
This allows use of the vehicle nameplate for enforcement instead of actual
weighing.
2. Add new Paragraph B as follows:
B. It is unlawful to park a commercial vehicle exceeding a maximum gross
vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of ten thousand pounds on any street in a
commercial or industrial zone except where specifically signed to allow
commercial vehicle parking between the hours of 7 p.m. and 7 a.m.
unless otherwise indicated. This paragraph shall remain in effect until
January 1, 2001, at which time the following paragraph shall become
effective:
0
Continued September 1, 1999
It is unlawful to park a commercial vehicle exceeding a maximum gross
vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of ten thousand pounds on any street in a
commercial or industrial zone.
Change current Paragraph "B" to "C"
Amend Traffic Resolution 97-148 to delete Paragraphs C.9, C.10 and C.11 of
Section 3, to be effective upon posting the above restriction.
These are the current locations where specific commercial vehicle restrictions
have been posted. The new ordinance will require posting at the City limits at a
minimum and leaving these specific locations posted will lead to confusion.
Action 2 — Additional changes
In addition to problems caused by large trucks parking on -street, there are circumstances
where any vehicle, and particularly a tall one, causes sight obstructions. Restricting
parking of these vehicles presently requires Council action. Staff recommended that the
following changes be made to allow administrative action in these cases:
1. Amend LMC §10.44.020 F. from "twenty" feet to "one hundred" feet.
This would mainly be used at intersections and driveways where parking causes
a sight problem.
2. Amend LMC §10.44.070 to strike the phrase ". in the traffic resolution"
regarding vehicles six feet or more in height.
This would only be used at intersections as provided in Vehicle Code §22507.
3. Amend Traffic Resolution 97-148 to delete Section 3, Paragraph D.
These are the current locations where this specific restriction has been posted.
The signs would remain in place but would not need to be listed in the Traffic
Resolution.
Staff will also need to seek concurrence from Caltrans regarding applicability of these
restrictions to State Highway 12. Ordering and posting the necessary signs will take six
to eight weeks. Staff will prepare and distribute maps describing available parking areas
for truckers.
Speaking regarding this matter were the following persons:
John Sutphin, 321 East Century Boulevard, Lodi, stated that he has read the
proposed changes in the code and is pleased with them. Mr. Sutphin further
stated that he is addressing the Council because of his concerns regarding the
problems relating to enforcement. Mr. Sutphin requested to hear a report from
the Police Chief as to how the subject ordinance would be enforced. He further
addressed abandoned vehicles on Cherokee Lane. Mr. Sutphin concluded by
stating that he wants the code properly and adequately enforced.
Cal Tobin, Jr., 106 Schlenker Drive, Lodi, commented that earlier he did not have
a parking problem and that he had parked his rig in his yard. He stated that he
tried to be considerate of his neighbors. Because of a complaint that was
registered by one of his neighbors, he is now forced to park his rig elsewhere. He
chastised the Council for what he called the lack of loyalty for this segment
(truckers) of the population.
Continued September 1, 1999
Gary Lund, P. O. Box 22, Lodi, voiced his disappointment that there has been no
scheduled meeting held with area truckers to discuss this matter prior to it coming
before the City Council. He stated that every viable location for truck parking in
the community is posted either with "No Parking" or limited parking zones.
Mr. Lund further suggested that DeBenedetti Park would be an ideal location to
provide truck parking in this community.
4. Ken Jeffers, 2145 West Kettleman Lane, Lodi, commented that the City Council
must put safety above all else. He stated that from the telephone calls he is
getting, people in the community are supportive of the Council's action in this
matter. He further stated that there are a lot of different types of vehicles other
than trucks that cause sight distance problems. He feels the private sector of the
community will come forward with a viable solution regarding the parking of
trucks.
A lengthy discussion followed with questions being directed to staff and to those who had
addressed the City Council regarding the matter.
Following additional discussion, the City Council, on motion of Council Member Hitchcock,
Land second, introduced Ordinance No. 1680 entitled, "An Ordinance Of The City Council
Of The City Of Lodi Amending Title 10 — Vehicles And Traffic By Repealing And
Reenacting Section 10.44.020(F) 'Prohibited Stopping, Standing Or Parking', Section
10.44.070 'Parking Not To Obstruct Sight Distance', And Section 10.52.050 'Parking
Restrictions', To The Lodi Municipal Code Relating To Truck Parking" by the following
vote:
Ayes: Council Members — Hitchcock, Mann, Nakanishi and Land (Mayor)
Noes: Council Members — Pennino
Absent: Council Members — None
b) Agenda item #H-2 entitled, "Award contract for Kettleman Lane (Highway 12) and
Crescent Avenue Traffic Signal/Median Project".
Public Works Director Prima reported that this project consists of installing a raised
median on Kettleman Lane, from Ham Lane to Hutchins Street, with openings at Fairmont
Avenue, Crescent Avenue, and the Vineyard Shopping Center's easterly driveway. The
work also consists of constructing a four -legged intersection at Crescent Avenue and the
Vineyard Shopping Center. At this intersection, a traffic signal will be installed with street
lighting, pedestrian protection, handicapped ramps, and emergency vehicle detection.
Plans and specifications for this project were approved on July 21, 1999. The City
received the following two bids for this project:
Bidder Location Bid
Engineer's Estimate $350,600.00
Clayborn Contracting Auburn $389,890.00
A. M. Stephens Construction Lodi $422,002.30
Construction assistance and staking will be done by the design consultant, Kjeldsen,
Sinnock & Neudeck, Inc., and will be added to their Consultant Services Agreement.
Replacement landscaping on the shopping center property will be done by another
contract.
Speaking on the matter was Ken Jeffers, 2145 West Kettleman Lane, Lodi, who urged the
City Council to go forward and award the bid for this contract as recommended by staff.

Continued September 1, 1999
Following a brief discussion, with questions regarding the matter being directed to staff,

11. COMMENTS BY THE PUBLIC ON NON -AGENDA ITEMS
a) Ken Jeffers, 2145 West Kettleman Lane, Lodi, asked why there has been such a delay in
paving Tienda Drive. Public Works Director Prima indicated that the water main, which
was built as part of the subdivision, has not successfully passed certain required testing
which has delayed the paving of the street, but indicated that he is hopeful that they will
be able to complete this work shortly.
Mr. Jeffers also expressed his concerns regarding the very poor condition of the railroad
crossing in the area of Lodi Avenue which has resulted in several falls by senior citizens.
It was pointed out by both Public Works Director Prima and City Attorney Hays that the
railroad is responsible for these repairs and should the City intercede, we would be
assuming some liability. The City will again contact the railroad regarding this matter.
Continued September 1, 1999
b) Tim Vallen, 11 Rio Vista Drive, Lodi, addressed the City Council regarding a suspicious
incident he had witnessed either last Friday or Saturday night in the area of the post

have been done. The City Manager was directed to look into the matter.
