SHIRTSLEEVE SESSION
CARNEGIE FORUM, 305 WEST PINE STREET
TUESDAY, JULY 12, 2011
A. Roll Call by City Clerk
An Informal Informational Meeting ("Shirtsleeve" Session) of the Lodi City Council was held
Tuesday, July 12, 2011, commencing at 7:00 a.m.
Present: Council Member Hansen, Council Member Katzakian, Council Member Nakanishi,
Mayor Pro Tempore Mounce, and Mayor Johnson
Absent: None
Also Present: City Manager Bartlam, City Attorney Schwabauer, and City Clerk Johl
B. Topic(s)
B-1 Development Impact Mitigation Fee Program Update (PAW
City Manager Bartlam provided a brief introduction to the subject matter of the impact mitigation
fee update.
Public Works Director Wally Sandelin provided a PowerPoint presentation regarding the impact
mitigation fee update. Specific topics of discussion included terms and abbreviations, growth
forecast, growth forecast for non-residential, project progress and time line, water demand, water
fee assumptions, water fee concept, water impact fee, meter size comparisons for water and
wastewater, wastewater generation, wastewater fee assumptions, wastewater fee concept,
wastewater impact fee, storm drainage fee concept, police impact fee, police fee assumptions,
fire impact fee, and fire fee assumptions.
In response to Council Member Hansen, Mr. Sandelin stated the program is not showing high
density because the building industry does not feel there will be a market for high density in Lodi
over the next 20 years.
In response to Council Member Hansen, Mr. Sandelin stated the impact fee program does not
take into account and is not related to specific types of high-density units, including rental units.
In response to Council Member Nakanishi, Mr. Sandelin stated low-income housing is considered
in the housing element of the General Plan and not separately under the impact fee program.
Mr. Bartlam provided a brief overview of affordable housing, senior housing, the Eden project,
and how the housing is calculated.
In response to Mayor Johnson, Mr. Sandelin stated the 10% difference with conservation and
metering for water demand is due to getting the water from the wells and the differential is fairly
moderate in comparison to other similar models.
In response to Council Member Hansen, Mr. Sandelin stated the cost for the transmission line
was approximately $8 million.
In response to Mayor Pro Tempore Mounce, Mr. Sandelin stated the map represents the area
where the water connection fee could apply eventually, although it is not necessarily so currently.
He stated the City Council under its discretion could consider specific connection requests.
In response to Mayor Johnson, Mr. Sandelin stated the calculations are based on the overall
Continued July 12, 2011
capacity of the surface water treatment plant to serve development.
In response to Mayor Pro Tempore Mounce, Mr. Sandelin stated the City Council has not decided
how the financing for the new treatment plant will be assessed to new development and the
impact fee program partly addresses that financing.
John Beckman, representing the Building Industry Association (BIA), spoke in regard to the letter
submitted by the BIA for the meeting and stated that the aquifer concept for total depletion has
yet to be incorporated in the water surface treatment plant discussion. Discussion ensued among
Mr. Beckman, Mr. Sandelin, Mr. Bartlam, and Mayor Johnson regarding the analysis required
for total depletion calculations, the methodology to be used, and the sufficiency of the existing
safe yield formula. In response to Council Member Hansen, Mr. Beckman stated new
development should pay its fair share, the BIA does dispute the 2/3 to 1/3 formula, and the City
could demonstrate adequate water supply without the surface water treatment plant being built as
the groundwater is not sufficiently drawn. A brief discussion ensued between Mr. Beckman and
Council Member Nakanishi regarding the reasoning for the construction of the new treatment
plant and its relation to new development.
In response to Council Member Hansen, Mr. Sandelin stated the 8.5 mgd for wastewater would
take the City well beyond 2035 and into the next General Plan.
In response to Mayor Johnson, Mr. Sandelin stated some of the hard costs associated with
new regulations are set and accounted for in the program while others will come back to Council
for consideration in the future.
In response to Mayor Pro Tempore Mounce, Mr. Sandelin stated the existing trunk line as shown
on the map was only partially lined.
In response to Council Member Hansen, Mr. Sandelin stated that, if the fees in the program go
down at some point in the future, staff will need to return to Council for consideration.
In response to Council Member Nakanishi, Mr. Bartlam stated regardless of what the existing fee
is the proposed methodology is the appropriate apportioned fee to ensure new development is
paying for its share.
In response to Council Member Katzakian, Mr. Bartlam stated a larger meter and pipe will be
needed for a structure that serves multiple units.
In response to Myrna Wetzel, Mr. Sandelin stated the standard size pipe for residential is a 3/4
inch.
In response to Council Member Nakanishi, Mr. Sandelin stated other communities are using the
same methodology proposed for police and fire impact fees.
In response to Mayor Pro Tempore Mounce, Mr. Bartlam stated that, while the original Fire
Station No. 5 is planned for Reynolds Ranch and incorporated in the development agreement,
the development agreement may be amended in the future if there is a need for the station
elsewhere depending upon development.
In response to Mayor Johnson, Mr. Sandelin stated staff will be bringing back to Council
comparisons from five to seven other cities that show the police and fire impact fees and the
methodology for the same.
In response to Mayor Johnson and Mayor Pro Tempore Mounce, Mr. Bartlam stated what police
N
Continued July 12, 2011
and fire facilities will be necessary in the future is a separate question from how to pay for them
and the old method of delivering services may need to be reconsidered in the future.
John Beckman spoke in regard to considering calls for service and traffic calculations when
analyzing police and fire impact fees.

Mayor Johnson,
I would like to commend city staff and your consultants working on the Impact
Mitigation Fee Program update. We are pleased with the process of the update
and so far we only have two issues of concern we'd like to raise.
The Police and Fire estimates for facilities needed, cost estimates, and total fees
to be collected seem appropriate. However, the cost allocation between
residential and non-residential represents a 180 degree tum from the well
accepted methodology used by most other cities and it is a reversal from Lodi's
current methodology. The City of Manteca for instance, is currently updating
their Fire facility fees and will continue to use the "Calls For Service" method of
analyzing the nexus for needed facilities. Due to the extraordinary call volume at
retirement homes this building type will have a separate category of its own and
will pay for its pro -rata share of fire facilities. Likewise other building types will
pay their fair share based on the call volumes to those building types. The BIA
strongly believes actual calls for service, or a proxy for this data, to be the
strongest nexus for determining cost allocation.
Also, the nexus for the Water Treatment Plan has correctly identified that an
"existing deficiency" exists within the City's current water delivery system and it
correctly identifies the prohibition of making new development pay for "existing
deficiencies". However, the nexus used to allocate the costs between existing
users and new development is not consistent with the record The proposed
methodology does not reconcile the historic groundwater depletion with the
projected benefits to groundwater levels of the Water Treatment Plant. We have
raised this issue with city staff and are still waiting for a response. It is the
position of the BIA to support fees which allow new development to pay its fair
share of facility burdens on existing residents and we look forward to supporting
the entirety of the Impact Mitigation Fee Program at its conclusion.
Si rely,
ohn R. Beckman
