AN URGENCY INTERIM ORDINANCE OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL
AMENDING TITLE 17 ZONING AND CHAPTER 13.12
OF THE LODI MUNICIPAL CODE
SECTION 1. Pursuant to Government Code 4 65858(c), the Lodi City
Council has made the following findings regarding a current and
immediate threat !to the public health, safety, or welfare, regarding
the approval of any general plan amendments, prezonings, or tentative
maps for any areas not presently within the corporate limits of the
City of Lodi, which the City would be required to serve from its White
Slough Water Pollution Control Facility (WSWPCF), and for which there
is not present domestic sewerage capacity:
FI NDI NGS :
1. WSWPCF is presently receiving approximately 6.0 million
gal 1 ons per I day (MGD) .
2. On October 21, 1987, the City Council pursuant to Resolution No.
87-138 awarded a contract for the WSWPCF interim aeration
improvements .
3. The new design capacity of WSWPCF with the interim aeration
improvements which were just comple-ted, is 6.2 MGD. This new
capacity will only permit the City of Lodi to serve the areas
presently in the corporate limits of the City of Lodi.
4. The attached Exhibit A Capacity Evaluation of the WSWPCF shows
that at the present development rate of the existing residential lots
-1-
and acreage already within the City limits, the WSWPCF with its
recent improvement will again be at capacity around January 1990. Any
attempt to serve areas outside the present corporate limits of the City
of Lodi could result in danger to the health, safety and welfare, in
that the WSWPCF could not then handle the sewage from areas already
within the existing City Limits.
5. On February 18, 1987, the City Council approved the master
agreement and prel iminary engineering agreement for wastewater
consulting services related to the WSWPCF plant expansion which will
increase the capacity from 6.2 MGD to 8.5 MGD. This plant
expansion is not scheduled for completion until January 1991.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE LODI CITY COUNCIL as follows:
SECTION 2. Lodi Municipal Code Title 17 Zoning and Lodi Municipal
Code Chapter 13.12 are hereby amended, effective on the date of the
adoption of this ordinance, as follows:

Facility (WSWPCF) expansion project is completed and operational , the
City of Lodi shall not permit any new residential sewer connection to
the domestic sewer system for any areas currently lying outside of the
City of Lodi corporate limits. Except that the City Council may approve
on a case-by-case basis, a sewer connection to the domestic sewer
system for a commercial or industrial project upon the annexation of
said project.

2. Until eighteen months before the date that the WSWPCF expansion
project is expected to be completed and operational, because of the
lack of domestic sewage capacity at WSWPCF, the City of Lodi shall

maps for any parcel which is not presently within the corporate limits
of the City of Lodi. Except that the City Council may approve on a
