AGENDA ITEM Moo \ CITY OF LODI COUNCIL COMMUNICATION 7M AGENDA TITLE: Conduct a public hearing to consider the appeal of the Planning Commission's decision of February 22, 2006, to approve a Use Permit for Vineyard Christian Middle School to place a private 6'h, 7th and a grade school on the grounds of Lodi Avenue Baptist Church at 2301 West Lodi Avenue (Applicant, Lodi Avenue Baptist Church; File#U-05-20), MEETING DATE: April 19.2006 PREPARED BY: Community Development Department RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council deny the appeal and uphold the Planning Commission's decision to grant a Use Permit for Vineyard Christian Middle School to locate a private middle school on the grounds of Lodi Avenue Baptist Church, 2301 West Lodi Ave. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At their meeting of February 8, 2006 the Lodi Planning Commission held a Public Hearing to consider the request of Vineyard Christian Middle School for a Use Permit to locate a private school on the property of Lodi Avenue Baptist Church, 2301 West Lodi Avenue. Following extensive public testimony and discussion, the Public Hearing was continued to the following meeting date of February22, 2006 to allow the Planning Commission to receive additional information from all interested parties and City staff. Based on the information received at the Public Hearings, the Planning Commission voted to approve the Use Permit at the meeting of February 22, 2006. (see attached February 8, 2006 and February 22, 2006 Planning Commission staff reports) Review of Public Hearings of February 8, 2005 and February 22, 2006. During the Public Hearings of February 8, 2006 and February 22, 2006, some of the residents of the neighborhood near the proposed school site spoke in opposition to the granting of the Use Permit for the Vineyard Christian Middle School. Their primary concern was the impact that the school would have on their neighborhood, which they characterized as a quiet residential area. The neighbors expressed concerns about added traffic on Allen Drive, and increased noise and litter that they felt would be a result of the proposed school. They were also concerned about the aesthetic impacts the school buildings would have on their neighborhood. In order to address the neighbor's concerns, the Planning Commission continued the Public Hearing of February 8, 2006 to their next meeting of February 22, 2006. They directed staff to work with the applicant to determine if there were solutions that could be developed that would address the concerns of the neighbors. At the February 22 meeting, staff presented the Planning Commission with several APPROVED: Blair King, City Manager possible conditions that could be placed on the project to address some of the issues raised by the neighbors. The Planning Commission also took additional public comments regardingthe projectand the new conditions. Based on the information presented at the public hearings, the Planning Commission determined that the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church property at 2301 West Lodi Avenue was an appropriate location for the proposed Vineyard Christian Middle School and approved the Use Permit 4 to 3. (Kiser, Moran, White opposed). As part of their presentation before the Planning Commission, residents of the neighborhood submitted to the Planning Commission a petition signed by a number of the residents expressing their opposition to the proposed school. Following the Planning Commission's approval of the Use Permit, some of the neighbors submitted an appeal requesting that the City Council overturn the actions of the Planning commission and deny the Vineyard Christian Middle School Use Permit. COUNCIL OPTIONS: • Deny appeal — confirm Planning Commissions action of approval. This is the recommended action. • Grant appeal —granting the appeal would reverse the Planning Commission approval denying the Use Permitfor the school.

The VCMS coordinate their schedule for activities with the Lodi Ave. Baptist Church to minimize scheduling conflicts. M. Payment of Development Impact Mitigation Fees at building permit issuance. The fees represent the additional impact placed on City facilities by the use of the site for school purposes. Public Works staff estimates that the fees will be $57,301.04. Fee calculations are shown on the Development Impact Mitigation Fee Summary Sheet which will be provided to the applicant. The fees are based on information contained in the use permit application and represent 84 students, 5 full time equivalent (FTE) employees, a building area of 4,000 square feet and a building pad area of 14,000 square feet. This is only an estimate. The actual fees to be paid will be based on the plans submitted for the issuance of a building permit for the project and will be those in effect at the time of issuance of the building permit. A change in the fees is anticipated in the near future. N. Installation of traffic signs and markings for the school zone in conformance with the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control (MUTC) will be required as a condition of approval for the building permit for the project. A layout prepared by City staff showing the locations of the required signs and markings is available for reference. The work must be completed prior to final inspection for the building permit or commencement of classes, whichever occurs first. O. The applicant may elect to have the traffic signs and markings done by City crews at the applicant's expense or by the applicant's contractor. If the work is done by City crews, we estimate the cost to be approximately $2,856.00 (cost estimate available) which will be collected at the time of issuance of the building permit. If the work is done by the applicant's contractor, the contractor shall obtain an encroachment permit from the Public Works Department prior to the commencement of work. All work shall be done in conformance with City standards and specifications. PCres 06-05 U-05-020 Lodi Ave revised. Baptist.doc 3 P.

Lodi Ave. LOCATION: APPLICANT: PROPERTY OWNER: RECOMMENDATION 2301 West Lodi Ave. APN 029-130-31 Lodi Avenue Baptist Church 2301 West Lodi Ave. Lodi, CA 95242 1St Southern Baptist 2301 West Lodi Ave. Lodi, CA 95242 Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the Use Permit request of Lodi Avenue Baptist Church to allow the Vineyard Christian Middle School to locate a private middle school on their church property at 2301 West Lodi Ave., subject to the conditions in the attached resolution. SUMMARY Lodi Avenue Baptist Church is proposing to locate a Christian middle school (six, seventh and eighth grade) on a portion of their church property at 2301 West Lodi Ave. The school, Vineyard Christian Middle School (VCMS), is currently located on the site of Woodbridge School, which is currently being remodeled. When the Woodbridge School remodel is complete, VCMS will need to relocate to a different site. Lodi Avenue Baptist Church has made available an unused portion of their property for the school. Before VCMS can relocate to this property, they will need to secure a Use Permit from the Lodi Planning Commission for the operation of a school. The school will operate Monday through Friday, from 8:30 am to 3:10 pm. The school has a student population of 75 that will be housed in five modular buildings that will be moved on to the site. PROJECT/AREA DESCRIPTION General Plan Designation: LDR, Low density residential. Zoning Designation: R-1, residential single-family Property Size: 2.64 -acres. The adjacent zoning and land use designations are as follows: North: R-1, residential single-family and Public. The property immediately north of the church property contains a private swimming club that is open seasonally. North of the pool is Henry Glaves Park, a City parkibasin. South: R-1. The area to the south, across Lodi Ave. is single-family residential. East: R-1. The area to the east, across Allen Drive is single-family residential. West: PD (27) Planned Development. West of the church site is Parkview Terrace, an 8.2 - acre planned unit development that contains an adult residential community. BACKGROUND Vineyard Christian Middle School is an existing private 6th, 7th and 8th grade Christian middle school that is located on a temporary basis on the grounds of the Woodbridge School, a school site owned by the Lodi Unified School District (LUSD). The LUSD buildings on the site are being extensively remodeled to provide a modern elementary school facility. During the remodeling all the LUSD students have been relocated to other schools and no public school students are currently on site. The VCMS students are housed in modular classroom buildings located on a corner of the school property. The Woodbridge Elementary School is scheduled to reopen in the fall of 2006. When this happens, VCMS will have to relocate, and they have selected the Lodi Ave. Baptist Church property at 2301 West Lodi Ave. as their choice for a new school site. The VCMS is not directly affiliated with the Lodi Ave. Baptist Church and will only be leasing land from the church. ANALYSIS The Lodi Avenue Baptist Church is located on a 2.6 -acre parcel of land at the northwest corner of Allen Drive and West Lodi Ave. The church and related Sunday school classrooms are located on the south half of the property. The north half of the property contains a portion of the church parking lot, an open lawn area and a church parsonage, which is located on the northern -most portion of the property. The Vineyard Christian Middle School will be located in the center of the property between the church and the church parsonage. The proposed site is partially paved and partially planted in lawn. The classrooms will be placed on the paved area which is currently part of the church parking lot and the lawn area will serve as the school playground. Placement of the school buildings on the paved area will result in the loss of approximately 14 parking spaces, leaving the church with approximately 47 parking spaces. The City's parking standards are based on one parking space required for every four seats in the church sanctuary. The Lodi Ave. Baptist Church has a sanctuary that seats 300 people. This requires 75 parking spaces. According to the church, their normal Sunday services are attended by 80 to 100 parishioners. Based on their actual attendance, they will have sufficient parking, even after the reduction in the number of parking spaces. Vineyard Christian Middle School is proposing to place five modular buildings on the church site. Each of the buildings is 20'x 40' in size. Four of the units will be classrooms and the fifth unit will house an office and restroom facilities. The five buildings will be arranged in a U -shape facing south. The grass area to the north of the buildings will serve as outdoor play areas. There will also be some paved play areas adjacent to the classrooms. Parking for the 5 staff members will be provided adjacent to the school. A 5 -foot high fence will be constructed along the east side of the school to provide a separator between the school and Allen Drive. According to their application, VCMS has a student population of 75 middle -school students who attend school from 8:30 am to 3:10 pm. Monday through Friday on a traditional school calendar. 2 For a period of one-half hour before and after school, students are regularly dropped off or picked up by parents or guardians. A regular school day includes seven 45 -minute class periods, a 15 - minute morning break, and a 45 -minute lunch period. Students eat lunch outside on picnic tables or in the class rooms. The school is a closed campus. The school does offer a sports program but most practices and games are held off-site at other Lodi facilities. The application states that activities conducted before or after the hours of 8:00 am or 4:00 pm are typically held off campus. The school will operate during daytime hours, Monday through Friday. By contrast, the church is most active on weekends, particularly on Sundays and on certain weekday nights. Because the facilities operate on different schedules, there should be minimal conflict between the church and the school. According to the site plan there is sufficient space on the Lodi Avenue Baptist church property to accommodate the school without significantly impacting the church. The area that the school will occupy is currently unused by the church and will not affect their operations. The church property is located on the corner of Lodi Ave. and Allen Drive. Lodi Ave. is a major east -west arterial serving much of central Lodi and has an average daily vehicle trip count of 6,900 vehicles per day. Lodi Avenue along with Allen Drive will provide the access to the school site. Allen Drive has an average daily trip count of 761, fairly typical for a residential street. Figures provided by the school indicate that the school will have 75 students and 5 employees. Using data from the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE), middle schools generate 1.6 vehicle trips per students/employees. The school could generate 130 additional daily vehicle trips. It is likely that some students will carpool, walk or bike to school, reducing the number of vehicle trips. The increase in traffic volume will probably be most noticeable on Allen Drive. The impact of the additional vehicles will be lessened to some degree by the fact that the school site is near the intersection of Lodi Ave. so many of the vehicle trips will only travel one or two blocks of Allen Drive. While the additional vehicle trips may be noticeable to neighbors, particularly the 5 or 6 houses that are directly across from the church property, an increase of 130 vehicle trips on Allen Drive is still within the acceptable traffic volume for a residential street. The school will have some buffering from surrounding properties. The properties most directly affected will be the 6 corner parcels along the east side of Allen Drive directly across the street from the church property. They will experience some increase in traffic on Allen Drive adjacent to their properties and an increase in the level of activity on the church property, including noise as a result of the presence of the school. Properties to the south will be buffered by the existing church buildings on the property as well as Lodi Ave., a four -lane street that separates them from the church property. The property to the west is an adult residential community. They are separated from the church property by a six-foot high block wall. The block wall surrounds their complex on three sides and is higher along Lodi Ave. and Lower Sacramento Road. Because of the wall and the fact that their entrance is on Lodi Ave., they will not be directly affected by the increased traffic or be visually affected by the increase in the level of activity created by the school. They may experience some increase in noise although it will be limited to day time hours and primarily during periods when the students are outside of the classrooms. The block wall separating the properties will reduce the noise levels and there are numerous trees planted on both sides of the fence that visually screen the school site from the houses to the west.. To the north, there is a church parsonage, a private seasonal swim club facility and a City park/basin. Only the church parsonage will be affected to any degree and presumably the church has considered this before making the site available to the school. Overall, the school will be buffered as well as most school sites in Lodi. Almost all schools in Lodi are located in residential areas and most have residences that face, side or rear to the school property. Schools are a permitted use in residential zones with approval of a Use Permit. In most cases the schools, particularly the public schools, have a much larger student population and a much larger campus. Generally speaking, schools and neighborhoods seem to coexist and the sponsors of the Vineyard 3 Christian Middle school seem willing to address any problems that may come up once the school is in operation. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS The project was found to be Categorically Exempt according to the California Environmental Quality Act, Article 19 §15332, Class 32. The project is classified as an "In -fill Project", less than 5 -acres in size; surrounded by urban development and served by City utilities; consistent with the zoning and where no significant environmental impacts are anticipated and no mitigation measures have been required. PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE Legal Notice for the Use Permit was published on January 28, 2006. 62 public hearing notices were sent to all property owners of record within a 300 -foot radius of the subject property.

SUMMARY Lodi Avenue Baptist Church is proposing to locate a Christian middle school (six, seventh and eighth grade) on a portion of their church property at 2301 West Lodi Ave. The school, Vineyard Christian Middle School (VCMS), is currently located on the site of Woodbridge School, which is currently being remodeled.

West of the church site is Parkview Terrace, an 8.2 -acre planned unit development that contains an adult residential community. BACKGROUND At the Planning Commission meeting of February 8, 2006, a public hearing was held to consider the request of the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church for a Use Permit to allow the Vineyard Christian Middle School to locate their school on the Church property. At the meeting, several neighbors of the Church spoke to express their objections to the proposed school being placed on this property. The issues the neighbors were most concerned with are as follows: 1). Traffic on Allen Drive. Neighbors were concerned that the proposed school will generate additional traffic on Allen Drive. They indicated that Allen Drive was a residential street with relatively low traffic volumes. They were concerned that the addition of 75 students and 5 staff would impact the street and neighborhood, particularly during morning and afternoon pick-up and drop-off periods. They also felt that the problem was compounded by the nearby St. Peters Lutheran School located at the corner of Oxford Way and Lower Sacramento Road. They felt that many of the parents of students at St. Peters also used Allen Drive to come and go from that school. They felt the combination of traffic from both schools would create a hazardous situation on Allen Drive. 2). Increased activity, noise and litter as a result of the school being located on this property. Neighbors were concerned that the school will generated more activity on the church property relative to what was there now. They felt that the church was a relatively unobtrusive use, with activity primarily on Sundays and during special events at the church. The school will have students on site Monday through Friday, 9 months a year. They felt that the added presence of students would create noise and litter that will affect the neighborhood. 3). Aesthetic concerns. Neighbors were concerned about the visual effects the school would have on the neighborhood. The applicant's are proposing to move 5 modular buildings onto the property. These will include 4 classrooms buildings and one office building. The neighbors expressed concern about the appearance of the buildings and how they would look from their residences across Allen Drive. They noted that the property is open along the Allen Drive frontage and there is no fence or other type of screening. There are only a limited number of trees planted along Allen Drive and no shrubs or other landscaping that could serve to screen the property. 2 ANALYSIS Staff has reviewed the concerns expressed at the meeting and has the following comments: 1). Traffic. Based on our calculations, the school could generate 130 additional vehicle trips per day. This would be in addition to the current volume of 761 vehicle trips per day on Allen Drive. The capacity of Allen Drive is approximately 2000 vehicle trips per day. Even with the addition of the school traffic, the potential total of 900 vehicle trips will be less then 50% of the design capacity for Allen Drive. In our estimation, the added traffic will not significant impact the capacity or the safety of traffic on Allen Drive. While the added traffic will not be an engineering issue, staff acknowledges that the neighbors, particularly those immediately adjacent to the school site will notice an increase in traffic. This will be most noticeable during the pick-up and drop-off periods. The perceivable change is compounded by the fact that traffic volumes on Allen Drive are relatively low so any increase is noticeable. It is possible that over time the neighbors will become accustom to the school traffic and the additional traffic will become less noticeable. In staff's opinion, the additional traffic generated by the school is not so much an engineering issue of traffic safety or congestion but more of an issue of perception by the neighborhood and the public. The street clearly has the capacity to safely handle the anticipated traffic volumes generated by the school. Whether the possible effects on the neighborhood are acceptable is more of a policy issue then a traffic engineering issue. The City and the applicants would like to explore every reasonable alternative to try to reduce the traffic effects on the neighborhood. Staff has worked with the school to try to come up with ideas that may help the situation. The following options are put forth for consideration: a) Rearrange the driveway layout and the travel route of vehicles entering and exiting the school property. Two alternatives are been suggested to the original driveway proposal. Alternate 1 (Exhibit A) is to require vehicles to enter the school grounds at the northern most drive way. Vehicles will proceed to a designated area, to pick-up or drop-off their student and proceed south through the parking lot and exit at the southern most driveway, turning right onto Allen Drive. Under this alternative, the center driveway will be temporarily closed during school hours. Alternate 2 (exhibit B) will have the vehicles entering the northern -most driveway then proceed to the drop-off zone. The vehicles will then loop around the entire parking lot and will exit the property at the center driveway, making a right hand turn onto Allen Drive. Under this alternative, the southern most driveway would be temporarily closed during school hours. Under both alternatives, new on-site signing would be required to designate the path of travel for vehicles and to designate the right -turn -only at the exit driveway. Both alternatives provide increased vehicle stacking room on-site. By allowing vehicles to maneuver in the parking lot there is less chance of vehicles having to wait on Allen Drive before entering the property. Requiring that exiting vehicles only turn right on Allen Drive will mean that most vehicles will only travel a short distance on Allen when exiting the property and that there will be fewer conflicts with passing traffic. Alternative 1 will further reduce the impact by having the vehicles exit at the driveway closest to the Lodi Ave. intersection. This will further limit the distance exiting vehicles 3 will travel on Allen Drive. This alternative will also spread the vehicles over two more widely separated driveways instead of concentrating then at the center of the property. b) The VCMS has also suggested the following methods that they feel will help alleviate the traffic situation: One is to stagger their school start and finish times with St. Peters Elementary School, to reduce the amount of overlap. VCMS will be willing to start either earlier or later then St. Peters, depending on what works better for each school. This will reduce the concentration of traffic and spread it out over a slightly longer time span. ii. Another suggestion made by VCMS is to have an adult traffic monitor onsite every morning and afternoon during drop-off and pick-up times. This person will monitor the traffic flow and work with parents to get students on and off the property safely and with minimal conflicts with passing street traffic. This person would also monitor the students to make sure they get to class safely. iii. Finally VCMS has created a parking lot instruction sheet (exhibit c) that they will hand-out to each school family. The sheet contains the procedure for the pick-up and drop-off of students. This includes the requirement that during both drop-off and pick-up vehicles must be in a parking space before students may exit or enter the vehicle. They are also planning to require that all drop-offs and pick-ups be made from vehicles that are in the parking lot. Students can not exit or enter vehicles parked on Allen Drive. 2). Addressing the question of increased activity on the property and the related potential for noise nnrd litter a) There is no question that the VCMS will bring more people onto the property. This problem is somewhat off set by the limited number of students (75) enrolled in the school and the limited number of grades (3 class rooms). Unlike larger schools that have multiple lunch periods and P.E. or recess periods that stretch throughout the day, VCMS will have a single break in the morning and a single lunch period. The rest of the time, students will be in the class room. Additionally, the school will be a closed campus so students will not be leaving campus to eat lunch. The closed campus and the single lunch period will reduce the impacts on the surrounding neighborhood by limiting the time students are outside of the classroom. Having a closed campus will also make it easier to monitor any potential litter problem. School supervisors can make sure students put their lunch litter in designated garbage cans. Also students will not be out in the neighborhood during lunch periods. Having students on the site will increase the ambient noise level during school hours. There will be some increase in noise during drop-off and pick-up periods and when students are outside the class room. This is a relatively quiet neighborhood so it is possible that nearby neighbors will hear some increased level of noise. What level of disturbance they will experience is hard to quantify. Generally school related noise is not considered an unusual noise source by the City's Noise Ordinance. Schools have historically been considered part of residential neighborhoods and are permitted by the City Zoning Ordinance in residential zones. Almost all schools in Lodi as well as in E other cities are located in residential areas. Schools and their related noises have traditionally been accepted as part of the every day activity of communities. VCMS will not have school buses or traditional sports fields so they will generate less noise then most schools. VCMS can reduce the potential noise problems by monitoring vehicles entering and exiting the school property. Vehicles should avoid using their car horn or playing loud stereos. Students can also be monitored to avoid unnecessarily loud noises when they are outdoors. 3). Aesthetics. a) In order to improve the appearance of the proposed school site, one of the conditions of approval will be that the project be reviewed by the Site Plan and Architectural Committee (SPARC). The Committee can require the applicant to add various features to their project to improve the overall appearance of the project. This could include fencing; additional landscaping, especially along Allen Drive; changes in the color or appearance of the buildings; parking lot improvements and other site related changes that the Committee feels will improve the design of the school. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS The project was found to be Categorically Exempt according to the California Environmental Quality Act, Article 19 § 15332, Class 32. The project is classified as an "In -fill Project", less than 5 -acres in size; surrounded by urban development and served by City utilities; consistent with the zoning and where no significant environmental impacts are anticipated and no mitigation measures have been required.

Exhibit C LODI PLANNING COMMISSION REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING CARNEGIE FORUM, 305 WEST PINE STREET WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 2006 CALL TO ORDER / ROLL CALL The Regular Planning Commission meeting of February 8, 2006, was called to order by Chair Heinitz at 7:00 p.m. Present: Planning Commissioners — Cummins, Haugan, Kuehne, Moran, White, and Chair Heinitz Absent: Planning Commissioners — None Also Present: Community Development Director Randy Hatch, Senior Planner David Morimoto, Planner Manager Peter Pirnejad, Deputy City Attorney Janice Magdich, and Administrative Secretary Kari Chadwick 2. MINUTES a) None Note: Item "b" was heard first. 3. PUBLIC HEARINGS a) Notice thereof having been published according to law, an affidavit of which publication is on file in the Community Development Department, Chair Heinitz called for the public hearing to consider The request for approval of a Use Permit to allow Vineyard Christian Middle School to operate a private 6th -8th grade school on the property (including the placement of portable buildings) at 2301 West Lodi Avenue. (File#: U-05-020, Applicant: Lodi Avenue Baptist Church) CEQA Status: Exempt Resolution #: P.C. 06-05. David Morimoto, Senior Planner, reported that The Vineyard Christian Middle School (VMCS) is an existing school that is located on the Woodbridge Middle School grounds. In the fall of 2006 the LUSD plans to open the campus again as a grade school and therefore the private school is in need of a new home. The site they have selected is Lodi Avenue Baptist Church property. The Church is surrounded by single family homes on the east, south and west sides and to the north is a community pool and Glaves Park. VMCS would like to locate the buildings in the middle section of the parcel. The zoning ordinance does allow for a school in residential neighborhoods with a Use Permit. They would like to open at the 2301 West Lodi Avenue address in the fall of 2006. They operate Monday through Friday on a standard school calendar during the hours of 8:30 — 3:10 p.m. with a half hour before and after for drop offs and pickups. They would like to locate five modular buildings in the center of the property. Three of the buildings will be used for classrooms, one for a multi-purpose room, and the fifth will be a combination of office and restrooms. They will be a tenant leasing the area from the church not an affiliate of the church. There will be no sporting events held on the premise other than regular PE activities. A five foot fence will be put along Allen Drive to help secure the school area from Allen Drive. In response to Chair Heinitz, Mr. Morimoto stated that the fence would start at the north end and come down to the parking lot area. The applicant hasn't indicated what style of fence they plan on putting up. In response to Commissioner Cummins, Mr. Morimoto stated that the current parking is sufficient for the current church attendance but would fall short if the church was filled to capacity. There is parking available on the street but that is not used to meet required parking. Continued In response to Commissioner Moran, Mr. Morimoto stated that the traffic on Lodi Avenue would not be significantly affected but Allen Drive would get an increase of 130 vehicle trips per operating day. Paula Fernandez in the Public Works department didn't feel that the traffic in the intersection would be significant. Public Works did anticipate having to post for a school zone and the painting of crosswalks. In response to Chair Heinitz, Mr. Morimoto stated that there is not a requirement for the amount of grass area that a school has to have. It would be possible to push the modulars back further onto the grass area to allow more parking if necessary. In response to Vice Chair Kuehne, Mr. Morimoto stated that the traffic department didn't indicate that there was a problem given the amount of accidents. In response to Commissioner Moran, Mr. Morimoto stated that the applicants have indicated that they will be moving the dumpsters so the flow of traffic in and out of parking lot would be more cohesive. Randy Hatch, Director, added that the final plans are not before the Planning Commission because the design process will go to SPARC if the Use Permit is approved. Mr. Morimoto mentioned that the Community Development Department received three letters in protest of the project and they have been copied for the Commissioners. He also went through photos taken of the property and the surrounding areas. In response to Commissioner White, Mr. Morimoto stated that there are seventy five students currently enrolled in the school. Hearing Opened to the Public • George Lepart, representative for Vineyard Christian Middle School, read a letter in support of the school from Pat Patrick, Chamber of Commerce. The church and LUSD have had a very good relationship. The School has made many improvements to the current site and plan to do the same to the project site. A chain link fence does not meet the standards for this school and has not been an option in the design process. Mr. Lepart shared some future design ideas shone on design boards. In response to Commissioner Cummins, Mr. Lepart stated that there could only be a maximum of 84 total students which works out to be 28 students per grade. In response to Vice Chair Kuehne, Mr. Lepart stated that the School meetings/Chapel will be held in one of the modular buildings and Vinewood Community Church has agreed to be their home sports complex. The student teacher ratio will not increase. He also stated that the flow of the drop off and pick up will be whatever it needs to be to work cooperatively with the surrounding neighborhood and staffs recommendations. The School start and stop times can be modified to work along with the times of St. Peters School. In response to Chair Heinitz, Mr. Lepart stated that the modulars will be removed when the addition to the church is made. In response to Commissioner Haugan, Mr. Lepart stated that the cost is not something that the school is worried about at this time. The results that are seen in the students that come from the school are what make it worth the effort. Previously used modulars are what will probably be used on the site, but regardless of what is used they will be made to be sightly and tidy. Pastor Mike Abdollahzadeh, Senior Pastor of Lodi Avenue Baptist Church, came forward to express the support of the church officials and the congregation for this project. 2 Continued In response to Chair Heinitz, Pastor Abdollahzadeh stated that he had approached some of the neighbors that were out walking and it was not well received. He also stated that some of the school board members also went in small groups around the neighborhood, but was not aware of the results of that outing. Paula Peterson, 2224 Jackson Street, came forward to express her reluctants to have the school in her neighborhood because of the traffic issues. She and her husband walk everyday and see the way the parents drive. Her husband was hit by one of the "responsible" parents dropping off their child at St. Peters. The traffic is already bad and will be an issue. Mrs. Peterson also expressed her concern with the lack of area that the students have for physical education. She would also like to know where the students will be eating their lunches. Linda Reichert, 2219 West Walnut Street, came forward to express her reluctance to have the school in the neighborhood because of the traffic and the lack of facilities for the students to eat their lunch and have some recreation area. The grass area along the fence is currently used by the cats in the neighborhood for hunting and for a sandbox. It is not sanitary for children. It is also an ankle breaker with all the pot holes that are there. Her other concerns are regarding landscaping, the type of fencing and the entire look of the area after the modulars are placed on the property. Chair Heinitz reassured her that this would not be the final step in the process for the school. They will still have to go before the SPARC Committee for a site plan review. She would also like everyone to keep in mind that this school is not a neighborhood school in so far as the students attending the school are not from the neighborhood which means that all the students will have to be driven to and from the school. In response to Vice Chair Kuehne, Mr. Lepart stated that the lunch area will be outside in good weather and in the portables when the weather is poor. Public Portion of Hearing Closed • In response to Commissioner Haugan, Mr. Hatch stated that the Public Works Department has taken into account the information regarding the traffic that already exists. He also stated that there will be 47 parking spaces left for cars after the modulars have been put into place and that there will be space available for picking up the children during bad weather. Commissioner Cummins stated that all schools have traffic issues. The school is a positive move toward meeting our infill needs. He is also comfortable with SPARC handling the aesthetics of the project. MOTION: Commissioner Cummins motioned, Heinitz second for the purpose of discussion only to approve the request for approval of a Use Permit to allow Vineyard Christian Middle School to operate a private 6th -8th grade school on the property (including the placement of portable buildings) at 2301 West Lodi Avenue. Discussion on the motion: Chair Heinitz stated that he is a big supporter of the people coming out and stating their opinion. He has a big concern with the traffic issue because like Mrs. Reichert said this is not a neighborhood school and that will mean up to an additional seventy-five cars twice a day on that street. Motion never went to vote. Continued MOTION: Vice Chair Kuehne motioned, Cummins second to add an amendment to the original wording to modify condition, Item K with a start time of 8:30 a.m. to a finish time of 3:05 p.m. Under discussion on the motion: Commissioner Haugan would like to see the project happen but would like to see the request continued with additional work by staff to see if something can be done with the traffic issue to help gain the support of the people that live there, but as the motion stands now he would have to vote no. In response to Commissioner Cummins, Mr. Hatch stated that the Public Works Department determined that the increase in traffic would not be significant over and above the current pattern. Staff can go back and request further information if that is helpful to satisfy everybody's concerns. Mr. Hatch also stated that the intersection does not warrant a traffic light. Commissioner Moran would have to vote no at this point. She would like more information from Public Works regarding the traffic issue. The motion failed by the following vote: Ayes: Commissioners — Kuehne and Cummins Noes: Commissioners — Haugan, Moran, White, and Chair Heinitz Abstain: Commissioners — None MOTION /VOTE: The Planning Commission, on motion of Commissioner Haugan, Kuehne second, to continue the Item to the meeting of February 22, 2006. Ayes: Commissioners — Cummins, Haugan, Kuehne, Moran, White, and Chair Heinitz Noes: Commissioners — None Abstain: Commissioners — None The motion to continue carried. b) Notice thereof having been published according to law, an affidavit of which publication is on file in the Community Development Department, Chair Heinitz called for the public hearing to consider The request for approval of a Tentative Parcel Map to allow an existing office building to be divided into a six -unit office condominium at 1745 West Kettleman Lane. (File#: 05-P-009, Applicant: Western Professional Buildings) CEQA Status: Exempt Resolution #: P.C. 06-06 David Morimoto, Senior Planner, reported that this item had a related item before the Planning Commission last year when the lot was created. A six unit office building has been constructed and the offices were designed to be six separate units with separate entries under one single owner. The idea now is to create six separate office condominiums with six separate owners with an association to manage the property (e.g., landscaping, repairs, etc.). The parcel would be owned in common by all the owners of the condos. The property is surrounded by other offices and single-family residents. In response to Chair Heinitz, Mr. Morimoto stated that the offices were constructed with a potential property line wall. The building code does not treat this type of condo the same Continued as a residential condo. The Buyers will have to go through the Department of Real Estate for CC&R's. In response to Commissioner Haugan, Mr. Morimoto stated that the CC&R's would cover the agreement of who takes care of the grounds. Randy Hatch, Community Development Director, stated that there is a condition in the resolution (section 4) that gives City staff the opportunity to review and modify the CC&R's if necessary to insure property maintenance. Hearinq Opened to the Public • Brian Gorbet, Dillon and Murphy Engineers, came forward to answer questions and stated that he concurred with Staffs findings. Public Portion of Hearing Closed • No Commission Discussion MOTION /VOTE: The Planning Commission, motion of Commissioner Haugan, Moran second, to approve the request for approval of a Tentative Parcel Map to allow an existing office building to be divided into a six -unit office condominium at 1745 West Kettleman Lane. The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Commissioners — Cummins, Haugan, Kuehne, Moran, White, and Chair Heinitz Noes: Commissioners — None Abstain: Commissioners — None 4.

ADJOURNMENT There being no further business to come before the Planning Commission, the meeting was adjourned at 8:45 p.m. ATTEST: 'Randy Flatch Community Development Director 21 LODI PLANNING COMMISSION REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING CARNEGIE FORUM, 305 WEST PINE STREET WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2006 1. CALL TO ORDER / ROLL CALL The Regular Planning Commission meeting of February 22, 2006, was called to order by Chair Heinitz at 7:00 p.m. Present: Planning Commissioners — Cummins, Haugan, Kiser, Kuehne, Moran, White, and Chair Heinitz Absent: Planning Commissioners — None Also Present: Community Development Director Randy Hatch, Senior Planner David Morimoto, Deputy City Attorney Janice Magdich, City Engineer Wally Sandelin, and Administrative Secretary Kari Chadwick Introduction of the new Planning Commissioner Wendel Kiser 2. MINUTES a) None 3. PUBLIC HEARINGS a) Pursuant to action taken by the Planning Commission on February 8, 2006 to continue the Public Hearing to February 22, 2006, Chair Heinitz re -opened the public hearing to consider the request for approval of a Use Permit to allow Vineyard Christian Middle School to operate a private 6th -8th grade school on the property (including the placement of portable buildings) at 2301 West Lodi Avenue. (File#: U-05-020, Applicant: Lodi Avenue Baptist Church) CEQA Status: Exempt Resolution #: P.C. 06-05. David Morimoto reported that at the previous meeting on February 8, 2006 some of the neighbors brought to staffs attention some of their concerns. There were three major issues consisting of traffic problems, the possibility of littering, and the look of the property with portables and screening. The traffic increase on Allen Drive will be approximately 130 trips per day. The last traffic count on Allen Drive was approximately 761 vehicle trips per day and staff feels that the street can handle the additional traffic because the capacity of the street is roughly 2000 vehicle trips per day. The neighbors would most likely notice the additional traffic on Allen Drive but that increase would not rise to a significant level, a level beyond the roads design capacity. Staff came up with two new alternatives for the traffic flow to help minimize the adverse affect to the neighborhood which are shown in exhibit A and B (see attached), in the packet. The driveways not in use would be blocked off. In response to Chair Heinitz, Wally Sandlin, City Engineer, stated that adding a condition of putting up no parking signs on Allen Drive could be a possibility. It would be subject to the review of both the Police Department and the City Council. In response to Chair Heinitz, Mr. Morimoto stated that the supplemental conditions following the proposed Resolution are alternatives for the Commissioners to choose from. He also stated that taking a driveway down the entire length of the property was an idea that was looked at but a good deal of the grass area would have to be taken up. David Morimoto also reported that the Vineyard Christian Middle School (VCMS) would be willing to acknowledge St. Peters by staggering the drop off and pick up times and they have already talked with the St. Peters Principal. VCMS are also going to have an Continued adult traffic monitor at both times. The school officials are going to create a handout of how to drop off and pick up their students to pass out to all the parents. In response to Commissioner Moran, Mr. Sandlin stated that there has been one accident reported at the corner of Allen Drive and Lodi Avenue in the last four years. It involved two vehicles traveling east bound on Lodi Avenue. Mr. Morimoto added that the incident in which the gentleman was hit happened over in front of St. Peters. In response to Vice Chair Kuehne, Mr. Morimoto stated that Staff felt exhibit A spread out the traffic the best. Hearing Re -Opened to the Public George Lepart, Vineyard Christian Middle School, came forward to thank the staff and honored the neighbors for all of their respect shown at the Hearing. The VCMS Board went out and observed the area during the high traffic times for five consecutive days and created a chart to show the flow of traffic for both the north and south bound directions on Allen Drive. The information gathered was the same as what the City had reported previously. It was never the intent to stage the drop offs or pick ups on Allen Drive. The adult monitor has already been put in place at the current site and will continue at the new one. The School is more than willing to stager times to help alleviate the traffic issue. A chain link fence was never an option of the School. VCMS intends to put something up that will be indicative of the neighborhood and of the Church. A liaison is being established to interface with the neighborhood during this time and throughout the entire process of getting this project up and running. Dean Ruiz, 1118 Chateau Court with Hakeem, Ellis & Marengo, stated that the staff report indicates that staff feels this is an opportunity for infill. The applicant has gone above and beyond to be accommodating and has indicated that they are willing to work with the neighborhood. The School is looking forward to working with SPARC so that an aethically pleasing plan for both the school and the neighborhood can be established. There has been no history indicating that noise or littering will be a problem with this project. Pat Patrick, 2848 Applewood Drive, came forward to support the project. He stated that he is looking at the project from three different angles, one from a leadership position in the community, two from a consumer of the educational product that the school produces and third as a Dad. He supports the application because this type of school is good for creating good citizens for our community. Having an up -close and personal view of the quality of this organization, he sees no economic reason for the property values to go down in the neighborhood. As a dad, the school has been a very positive experience for he and his family. David Johnson, 2200 Jackson Street, came forward to oppose the project. He and his wife live about a half a block from the project site. They shopped around before they bought the house. They bought there because they liked how quite the street was. They had to pay top dollar for the house because of the location. They paid it because they wanted a quite, low traffic area for their kids play in the yard. Paula Peterson, 2224 Jackson Street, came forward to oppose the project. She and the neighbors have been canvassing the neighborhood and the feeling is the same. She feels that people will pick the path of least resistance and when the traffic can't get across Lodi Avenue people will start using the neighborhood streets to get to an from the school. Mrs. Peterson handed in a map depicting the neighborhood which showed the 2 Continued homes that are for and against the project. She stated that she and her husband bought in the neighborhood for the quite and would like to keep it that way. There have been two car accidents that have ended up in the Pastor's yard and a car that recently came across Lodi Avenue, part of the Church property and ended up in her neighbor's yard. There are traffic accidents, it is a hectic corner. Paul Taormina, 2225 Jackson Street, came forward to oppose the project. The area is already noisy with the garbage lid slamming. Pastor Mike Abdollahzadeh has been asked to address this already and nothing has been done. People litter by throwing beer cans and bottles in the area. Then there will be the added noise from dogs being walked and barking at the added commotion. We just don't want this school across the street from us. Bob Peterson, 2224 Jackson Street, came forward to oppose the project. At the last meeting Pastor Mike came forward to talk about his enlightenment in regards to this project and how he approached two of the neighbors and after telling them about the project he was shocked and dismayed at their negativity toward the project. What Pastor Mike forgot to mention was that he told them that the project would not go forward without neighborhood support. While canvassing the neighborhood, we found that there was only one household that had attended Lodi Avenue Baptist Church actually living in the neighborhood. Pastor Mike's daughter is the only student that we know of that actually lives in the neighborhood that will be attending the school, all the other students will have to be driven in from other areas. A neighborhood should have the right to shape its own destiny. Dean Walker, 2207 Capell, came forward to oppose the project. The site has only 60 parking spaces and some of those will have to go to make room for the portables. The site has no room to grow and churches and schools want to thrive and grow. Lodi Avenue will have a lot of extra traffic and left hand turns off Allen Drive will cause more problems than have been addressed. The buildings will be portables and will be unsightly for the neighborhood. He was disappointed with the lack of notification to all of the property owners that will be affected. Linda Engrav-Clarke, 2101 Jackson Street, came forward to support the project. She signed the petition that was passed around and after signing the petition read the letter that came with it and had regrets. She tried to take her name off of it but was unable to get a hold of Mrs. Peterson. The letter gives the impression that all children are noisy and that all portables are ugly and that isn't the case. The letter also referred to speeding which is already a problem, but she felt that if this tight nit neighborhood felt speeding was such a problem she would have had a petition presented to her regarding that issue. She questions the intent of the petition and feels that the Church and School are trying to accommodate the needs and wishes regarding the concerns that the neighborhood has brought forward. Kevin Stevens, 1408 Graffigna Avenue, came forward in support of the project. He is a parent of two children that have been involved with the school since it's inception. The parents and students have stepped up and shown that they do care about the neighborhood that their school is in by the actions shown at the Woodbridge Middle School site. The improvements made there were made by them. The students are taught honor and respect and it shows in both the look and attitude of the school. He coaches a soccer team at the Henry Glaves Park and during that season the traffic and noise far exceed the expectation of the schools traffic. He would like to be able to live in Continued this neighborhood and wouldn't mind living across the street from this school because of the people that will be there. Mary Colbert, 2133 Jackson Street, came forward to oppose the project. She has lived in the neighborhood for a long time and has made the decision to stay. She is concerned about the traffic filtering down Jackson Street. She is very concerned with what will happen down the road as staff changes with the school. She then drew correlations with a public school in the Bay Area and the problems that her daughter has had with the students and the lack of respect shown by them to her daughters property. She can hear the soccer games and the pool in the summer time because she is outside more. She and her husband looked at several homes before buying on Jackson Street and avoided a home on Virginia Street because of it's proximity to Vinewood School. Scott Gaston, 2307 Aladdin Way, came forward to support the project. He lives one block in from Glaves Park and has a child going to the Vineyard Christian Middle School. He doesn't feel traffic will be a problem. Everyone bought in the neighborhood with the church already there and given the property size should have expected the church to try and grow. The quality of the staff and parents that are involved with the school are top notch and he is very glad to have his daughter become a recent addition to the student body. He was not approached with a petition against the school but if he had been he would not have signed it. Myrna Pitchford, 1525 West Elm Street, came forward to support the project. The differences between a public and private school are like black and white. The kids will be more of a help in the area than a problem because of what they are taught. Everything changes and there are so many other things that could go into this area that could be worse for the neighborhood. Chris Johnson, 2200 Jackson Street, came forward to oppose the project. She went to a Christian School and kids are kids and will be loud. She bought the house because of the quite and the traffic will take that away. She understands that the parents that are taking their children to this school want to have an environment where they can instill the proper values in them and hopes they can find a site where they can do that and are able to grow as well. Trash even with the best intentions will inevitable find it's way into the surrounding neighborhood. Michele Borges, 2124 Jackson Street, came forward to oppose the project. She has children that go to a private school and parents are people and will get in a hurry and will not always follow the rules. She is concerned with the children playing in the yard and just getting out of the neighborhood to take her kids to school, which is already a problem. She stated that the student body size where her child goes is 200+. Alyssa Oliver, 707 South Church Street, came forward to support the project. She feels the residents have a fear of the unknown. VCMS is not a public school. The top attendance of the School is 87 students. There are no plans for growth. She as a founding board member stated that if the school is going to grow it will look for a new site. Trash is an issue for the school also and past practice will show that there will be a positive change. The only noise will be daytime noise during PE, recesses and at lunch time. The public schools in the area release between 2:15 and 2:30 p.m. and VCMS releases at 3:00 p.m. leaving a significant gap to help alleviate the traffic issues. It is unfair to compare a K-8 public school to a 6-8 Christian school. This will be a positive place in the neighborhood. Continued In the response to Chair Heinitz, Mr. Hatch stated that the school will be limited to exactly what they are asking for which is 75 students and if they wish to increase it they must come back with an amendment to the Use Permit. Nicholas Bettencourt, 2114 Jackson Street, came forward to oppose the project. This is not a character issue it's a safety issue for our kids. We bought in the neighborhood without a school and that is what we want. It isn't fair to have this school going in down the street from where we live; this is being force feed down our throats. Linda Engrav-Clark, 2101 Jackson Street, came forward a second time in support of the project. She bought the home in 1993 and knows that change happens. The people that bought in the area knew the church was there and could see the potential of growth. George Lepart, Vineyard Christian Middle School, came forward to answer some of the statements made by the neighborhood. He also wanted to clarify that there are currently 75 students enrolled in the school and the maximum would be 84 which is 28 students per grade. Chair Heinitz stated that the Commission and Staff are trying their very best to find a solution that will satisfy everyone's needs. Public Portion of Hearing Closed • Chair Heinitz asked to have the map brought back up again so he could see where the church's entrances and exits lined up with Jackson or Walnut Streets and received clarification of which entrances and exits would be used for drop offs and pick ups. In response to Commissioner Moran, Mr. Hatch stated that if there is an expansion of the church then they would have to come back and get an amendment for the church or the school. If there were any new construction it would be brought back to the Commission. In response to Commissioner Haugan, Mr. Hatch stated that the document was prepared for 75 students but the Commission can change it tonight to the mentioned 84. There are no set rules regarding the number of students per class from the City's point of view. The number of students per modular will come to staffs attention when the building department gets the application for the building permit. OPEN TO APPLICANT FOR CLARIFICATION: In the response to Vice Chair Kuehne, Mr. Lepart stated that the maximum number of students will be 28 per grade which is one sixth grade, one seventh grade, and one eighth grade class. The fourth modular will be for multi-purpose use. CLOSED TO APPLICANT Commissioner Haugan and Chair Heinitz both stated that it does make a difference how many students are allowed now and it should be clarified in the resolution tonight. In response to Commissioner Kiser, Mr. Hatch stated that the supplemental conditions and traffic options should address the traffic issue. Conditions can be added to hold the school responsible for the way their students arrive and leave based on the chosen 5 Continued conditions. It would be difficult to enforce, but the school can be held responsible if the actions are not adhered to. Vice Chair Kuehne noted that the people were split on the issue. He also went to St. Peters and talked with the principal about the complaints that were filed and found that they were usually on the days that a school function occurred outside of school hours. He also said that he could not remember any accidents occurring around the school. The traffic flow seemed to flow well in the Allen Street and Lodi Avenue area. MOTION /VOTE: The Planning Commission, motion of Vice Chair Kuehne, Cummins second, to approve the amendment of section G at the 8th whereas to read that the total student population be 84 students and would reflect the appropriate dollar change. In response to Commissioner Haugan, Mr. Hatch stated that amendments can be made and voted on before the main motion. Commissioner Cummins commented that churches house schools all over the City and it has been a common practice for many years. He is in support of this project. The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Commissioners — Cummins, Haugan, Kiser, Kuehne, Moran, White, and Chair Heinitz Noes: Commissioners — None Abstain: Commissioners — None MOTION /VOTE: The Planning Commission, motion of Haugan, Kuehne second, to approve the amendment of Item J to include that the Vineyard Christian Middle School shall install additional features along Allen Drive to screen the school from the street. These features can include new fencing, shrubs, trees and any other items deemed appropriate by SPARC. The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Commissioners — Cummins, Haugan, Kiser, Kuehne, Moran, White, and Chair Heinitz Noes: Commissioners — None Abstain: Commissioners — None In response to Commissioner Kiser, Mr. Hatch stated that the applicant must go to SPARC and the issue of the look and age of the portables can be handled there. MOTION /VOTE: The Planning Commission, motion of Kuehne, Cummins second, to approve the supplemental conditions numbers 1, 3, 4, 5, & 7 as provided. The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Commissioners — Cummins, Haugan, Kiser, Kuehne, Moran, White and Chair Heinitz Noes: Commissioners — None Abstain: Commissioners — None IN Continued MOTION /VOTE: The Planning Commission, motion of Commissioner Cummins, Kuehne second, to approve the request for approval of a Use Permit to allow Vineyard Christian Middle School to operate a private 6th -8th grade school on the property (including the placement of portable buildings) at 2301 West Lodi Avenue subject to the conditions of the attached resolution as well as the additions of the supplemental conditions numbered 1, 3, 4, 5, & 7 as well as the amended Item G and Item J blended with supplemental condition number 6. Commissioner Moran stated her opposition to items 5 and 6 of the resolution because she has not seen anything to show that the traffic will not have an adverse effect on the neighborhood. She also has an issue with the lack of parking spaces should the church decide to take on a variety of activities over and above the regular church services. She can not support this project. Commissioner Haugan stated that he has been to the site and has not seen anything to show that the traffic will be an issue. He believes that this is a good use for the property. He would also like to see the trash set behind a screen and recycling bins used. He supports this project. Chair Heinitz went out and looked to see how Zion Middle School cues their parents in for drop offs and pick ups and they are very diligent about taking their traffic completely off of Ham Lane and everything is done in their parking lot. They do have a bigger parking lot than this project, but he had no doubt that the Vineyard School will be just as diligent about getting the cars off of the street. The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Commissioners — Cummins, Haugan, Kuehne, and Chair Heinitz Noes: Commissioners — Kiser, Moran, and White Abstain: Commissioners — None 4. PLANNING MATTERS Staff received the proposals for the General Plan and the draft of the Zoning Ordinance. Janice Magdich went over the policy passed by council, regarding outside of meeting communication; just letting everyone know if there has been any communication with anyone that directly relates to the issue at hand outside of this forum. In response to Chair Heinitz, Ms. Magdich stated that it is always a good idea when obvious opposition is present to mention the appeal process. In response to Commissioner Moran, Ms. Magdich stated that the disclosure of outside communication should come before starting the deliberation portion of the Public Hearing. In response to Commissioner Cummins, Mr. Hatch stated that staff gives Commissioners all the City's rules and regulations (the facts), it is the Commissions job to interpret for the public in regards to the intangibles.(ie. Aesthetics) 5. ANNOUNCEMENTS AND CORRESPONDENCE None 6. ACTIONS OF THE CITY COUNCIL Randy Hatch reported that the Miller Ranch project received the approvals from Council. There were two conditions added to collect for any additional fees incurred by the outside consultant and extra planning time for additional review. 7 Continued 9. ART IN PUBLIC PLACES None 10. COMMENTS BY THE PUBLIC None 11 COMMENTS BY STAFF AND COMMISSIONERS In response to Chair Heinitz, Mr. Hatch stated that the Blue Shield/Reynolds Ranch Project does have to go through a process starting with the Planning Commission. The City Council authorized staff to hire an outside consultant to try to sheppard it through as fast as it can get done. The site is in the General Plan as a planned residential reserve. In response to Commissioner Moran, Peter Pirnejad, Planning Manager. stated that the scoping meeting for the Blue Shield/Reynolds Ranch EIR was last week and a presentation before the Planning Commission is scheduled for when the drafl EIR has been prepared.

Box 3006 CITY Lodi, California 95241-1910 Chairman, Members of Lodi Planning Commission: Reference is made to the pending public hearing to consider a Use Permit to allow the Vineyard Middle School to locate at the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church. I apologize that due to other conflicts we will not be able to attend the February 8, 2006 hearing to consider this item. However, we want to register our objection to this Use Permit being approved. While we have always enjoyed the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church as our neighbors, the location of school on their property is wrong for several reasons. First, placing the school in this location will no doubt require the location of more portable buildings on the property. As you have no doubt noticed during your on-site review of the property, it is not very deep which will mean the portables will be located in full view of residences in the area, not very pleasing aesthetically to say the least. Secondly, there is the matter of increased traffic in the neighborhood. Assuming the enrollment is only 75 people, that's] 50 extra vehicles in the neighborhood each day. We have lived in our house for 36 years and bought here originally because of the quiet neighborhood. Thirdly, there is the issue of increased noise from the students attending the school. We're certainly not opposed to the students, but we bought next to a church, not a school. Lastly, there is the matter of increased trash that all schools seem to generate. Prevailing winds will bring it directly into our yard. Having said the above, I question the decision to consider this request without requiring that an Environmental Impact Report be prepared to address the above issues, as well as those not mentioned. As a former Lodi Planning Commissioner I would not have considered this request without an EIR addressing all of the potential adverse impacts of the project to the community. How can you consider this permit as Exempt? I would hope that you will consider very carefully what you are being asked to approve, consider what it will do to the local community, put yourself in our position and vote No. Thank -You for hearing our concerns, Sincerely, ePlelf-11 Je" /11�11�/ W.

Walnut St. Lodi, Ca. 95242 Lodi, Ca. 95242 February 2,2006 Randy Hatch FEB 2�� Community Development Director City of Lodi Planning Commission COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPT P.O. Box 3006 CITY OF LORI Lodi, CA 95241-1910 To: Director, Members of Lodi Planning Commission Re: RESOLUTION #: P.C. 06-05 We are expressing our opposition to the approval of a Use Permit, Vineyard Christian Middle School to locate on the property at 2301 West Lodi Ave. Due to prior commitments, we are unable to attend the meeting on February 8, 2006. We have lived at 2225 West Walnut Street (north-east corner of Walnut and Allen), which is across the street from the proposed school site, for 34 years. We have never had any problems with Lodi Avenue Baptist Church; however, to establish a school in this mostly residential area will present some problems. 1. More portable buildings on this property. It does not appear to be large enough to accommodate them and they would not present a good appearance in this residential area. 2. More noise will certainly surround us with the increase of cars and students. There may be even more trash for us to pick up as we try to keep our streets free of litter, which many of us do. We knew the church was here when we moved to our home, but never thought we would be living by a school. We certainly approve of students in a clean and good environment, but there must be a better local location for them. 3. The traffic in this area, on a two-lane street, will increase immensely, with the dropping off and picking up of students. We really wonder for the safety of the children. In times past we have had cars try to make the curve by our close park as fast as they can; even having them crash into neighbors yards and trees, and speeding so fast their cars have turned around in the middle of the street. How safe will it be? 4. Before you allow your approval of P.C. 06-05, please think of us living so close and crowded with traffic, and how a school located so near will affect us. Please vote NO. We respect your careful consideration. Sincerely, O. Carlton Martin and Edna L. Martin 2225 W. Walnut St. Lodi, CA 95242-3238 February 5, 2006 Randy Hatch C01"WUNrrYD L0pMcN� � Community Development Director CITY OFLODI P.O. Box 3006 Lodi, CA 95241-1910 RE: File # U-05-020 Lodi Avenue Baptist Church requesting a Use Permit to allow Vineyard Christian Middle School to locate a private school on the property at 2301 W. Lodi Ave. We are AGAINST the approval of this Use Permit. We have resided at 2225 Jackson Street ( N.E. corner of Jackson and Allen ) for nearly 17 years. The proposed area for the school is directly across from our bedroom window (on Allen Drive side) - Obviously, ide)- Obviously, when we bought our house the church was there, but we never anticipated a school being there too. If we had wanted to live across from a school, we would have bought a house across from a school. A while back, the church put a mobile home on the site that was only supposed to be temporary, however it remains there today. As we understand it, they will move portable buildings to the site. This is mostly a residential neighborhood and we feel that the appearance of these portables will be degrading to the neighborhood. Let us mention again, that these will be located across from our bedroom window. We will not welcome the noise of cars, car doors slamming, loud talking of students, heating and air conditioning units on the portables and other noises that are associated with schools. Imagine this happening to you. Allen Drive is a two-lane street. We all ready have a traffic problem. Speeding is the biggest problem. There is a private school located at Elm and Oxford and a lot of the parents that drop off their children drive up Oxford which loops around and becomes Allen Drive. Several times there have been crashes onto yards and into trees because of speeding. Litter is also a concern. For several years, again across from our bedroom window, on the church property there has been a newspaper recycle bin and a trash dumpster. People have dumped at all hours - day and night. Even with these dumpsters, we are cleaning up litter that has blown into our yard from across the street. Obviously, the dumpsters will be relocated, but we will still have the potential of more trash and litter in the area. We're sure that there are other locations more suitable for their school. We do not feel that our neighborhood is. We urge you to please vote NO. Thank you for your consideration. Paul Taormina & Dana Ashbaugh 2225 Jackson Street Lodi, CA 95242 (209) 333-1800 February 7, 2006 Lodi Planning Commission City Hall, City of Lodi Dear Commissioners, I'm out of town an unable to speak personally before you tonight. Therefore 1 want to speak through this letter on behalf of the relocation of Vineyard Christian School. Vineyard is a distinguished organization; Vineyard strives for the combination of educational excellence and the spiritual preparation of young people. Vineyard is all about preparing young people to be successful in life. From what (know, there is no middle -school educational experience better than Vineyard. I t is important to have such an institution as it "raises the bar' of educational standards for other schools here in Lodi. The faculty and board of directors at Vineyard are some of the most professional, caring and dedicated people in Lodi. The project as Iunderstand it, places the school on the property of Lodi Avenue Baptist Church, just off Lodi Avenue. This combination is a winner for students and the city alike as it promotes cohesiveness and is positive for both organizations. (wholeheartedly support this project and ask you to do the same tonight. S" , Pat Patrick President/ CEO Lodi Chamber of Commerce 35 South School Street • Lodi.

P.O. Box 3006 Deadline to file is March 8, 2006. Lodi, 95241-1941 RE: Use Permit for Vineyard Christian Middle School Dear Council Member John Beckman, The Planning Commission voted 4-3 to allow a Use Permit for Vineyard Christian Middle School to relocate their 5 portable buildings to the parking lot of Lodi Avenue Baptist Church located at 2301 W. Lodi Avenue (corner of Lodi Avenue and Allen Drive). Clearly, two of the planning commissioners had their minds made up at the first of the two hearings. Commissioner Bill Cummins said he was a Minister and Commissioner Doug Kuehne has children that attend St. Peter's School and is totally pro -private school. They both should have excused themselves from voting because they are bias. Neither of them was interested in the neighborhood's concerns or opinions. At the second hearing, a petition was presented to the commission. Over 100 signatures were collected from the residents of Benson Tract opposing the Use Permit. It was irresponsible to ignore the fact that the majority of the neighborhood — people who live and own property in the area — opposes the school. We don't have a say in what happens to our neighborhood? Vineyard Christian Middle School is a 6th, 7th & 8`h grade school with 84 students. It is not a neighborhood school. Only one student lives in our neighborhood and it happens to be Lodi Avenue Baptist Church's minister's child. All the others will be driven to and from school. We currently live in a fairly quiet neighborhood. We want to keep it that way We do not want the added traffic and noise. We all ready have that with St. Peter's School. We are also concerned about our property values. We know of another location that is more appropriate for their school site and it was brought to their attention. We are appealing the planning commission's decision to grant the Use Permit. We urge you to oppose the Use Permit. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Box 3006 for April 19, 2006. cjtyy�od� Lodi, Ca. 95241-1941 CC: City Council, City Manager, City Attorney, and Community Development Director Mayor Susan Hitchcock, Members of The Lodi City Council: Thank you for the opportunity to express our concerns about the pending Vineyard Christian School LI9e Permit to be considered by the City Council on April 19,2006. Having lived across the street from the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church for nearly 36 years we have always considered them as extremely good neighbors, always considerate of those around them. However, their decision to allow a school to locate on this small piece of property is not a good decision, one that certainly does not conform to their past consideration of the neighborhood. As you may have noticed from your site -visit to this rather shallow piece ofproperty, the proposed portable buildings will be in full view of the residences across the street, certainly detracting from the nice, aesthetically pleasing residential atmosphere we've strived to maintain throughout the years. Principal Karen Hale is quoted in the March 7, 2006 edition of the Lodi News Sentinel as saying "Anyone who knows us knows we can be nothing but a blessing." I would submit that she and the parents bringing their children to our neighborhood, only to leave at the end of each day to go home to their nice neighborhoods, unobstructed by portable buildings, could easily say something like that. But, how about those of us that must contend with this 24 hours a day, bowing that our property values have been adversely affected by being located in sight of these buildings? Secondly, and with all due respect to city's Traffic Department, Allen Drive is not a safe street in this area. In the time we've lived here we've seen two cars "driven", and wrecked, on corner lots across from the church property, and one wrecked on the area being proposed for the school, all as a result of drivers losing control while corning out of the curve just north of the proposed site. Perhaps, as we've heard, police records don't show this but we've witnessed it and have spoken to police on site at one of the accidents. We are not opposed to Christian schools, in fact we are supportive of them, but this is not the proper location for one.

As grandparents of children who attended VCMS, we are grateful for the beginnings our grandchildren received at this middle school. I can think of no reason that this church property should not be used in this manner. Lodi has a long history of churches and schools partnering together and this small school of three grades/classes and Lodi Avenue Baptist Church should be allowed to do the same. The article that appeared in today's Lodi News Sentinel stated that some of the neighbors are concerned about the value of their neighborhood property. I can think of a lot of uses for this property that would be a whole lot worse. 'The staff at VCMS only worked to improve the property where they are now and I know they are committed to do the same at the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church property. Again, we appeal to the council to reject the appeal and uphold the Lodi Planning Commision's approval of the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church's use permit.

Vineyard Christian Middle School Dear Distinguished Members of the Lodi City Council, My name is Melissa Ishida and my son Daniel will graduate this year from Vineyard Christian Middle School and move onto Lodi High School. My son's experience at VCMS has been a tremendous one, especially during such a crucial age. He attended a private Christian school only during grades 6,7 and 8. His father and I feel strongly that this experience will allow him to attend a very large high school and withstand the great peer pressures that await him. Not only has his Christian faith been strengthened but the academics have more than prepared him for his high school years. As the first VCMS Parent Club President, (2004-05) my experience with the children, administration, teachers, board members and parents was nothing short of positive, uplifting and supportive. Based on my experience I feel very confident that I can state to you VCMS students, parents and staff will be very aware of their surroundings, sensitive to the neighbors and follow the specified rules regarding pick up and drop off. Additonally, I can guarantee you that the entire student body including parents and staff, will work dilligently to beautify their surroundings, just has we have done at our current site. Lodi has a great need for schools. VCMS as a middle school, fills a very important niche. This group of people will only add to the neighborhood in a positive manner. With all of these things in mind, I ask you to please vote to reject the appeal and/or u phold-the Lodi Planni ng Commission's approvl_ofathe_Lod i Avenue Baptist Church's Use Permit.

I hope that you will uphold the Planning Commissions decision to allow VCMS to locate the school on the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church grounds. This is an ideal location for the school and as a parent I am excited to have such a great new location for our school. I have really tried to look at the situation from all sides, as a parent and as a neighbor of the school. I feel confident that the school will enhance the neighborhood by adding landscape and other improvements discussed in the approved plan. The neighborhood is already bordered by Lodi avenue, and the additional traffic created by the school will not create a problem. While I do not live directly across from Lodi Avenue Baptist, I am just a stones throw from St. Peters School. The traffic from St. Peters School does not impact my life or create any problems for me and my neighbors. I am confident that the same will be true for the residents nearest to Lodi Avenue Baptist church when the new school is located there. Please consider the children. Please allow Vineyard Christian Middle School to move to Lodi Avenue Baptist Church. Thank for your consideration.

Blackston, City Clerk -----Original Message ----- From: Christi Hilscher[mailto:c_hilscher@comcast,net] Sent: Tuesday, April 18,2006 2:30 PM To: Susan Blackston; Susan Hitchcock; Bob Johnson; 3oAnne Mounce; John Beckman; Larry Hansen Subject: Vineyard Christian Middle School Dear City Council Members, I am writing to you out of support for Vineyard Christian Middle School (VCMS). My daughter is a graduate of VCMS and is a current freshman at Lodi High School. She entered Lodi High as a very prepared and confident freshman. She was not only prepared spiritually but also physically, socially and certainly academically. She qualified for all advanced placement courses and has excelled in the sports programs and other activities. She has been given the necessary tools to deal with life and function as well balanced citizen. These qualities I attribute largely to her time at VCMS. She has a heart for service and our community. Some of the community service programs VCMS has been involved with are: The Salvation Army, KCRA Kids Can, Lodi Crisis Pregnancy Resource Center, Lodi Adopt -A -Child, School Clubs at Lodi High, Tokay High and Jim Elliott, Walk for Life, Lodi House, Local Churches —youth groups and mission projects including Vinewood Community Church, Lodi Avenue Baptist, 16t Baptist and Westside Assembly, One Eighty Teen Center, Make a wish foundation, and Leslie Huber's (current VCMS student) backpack project. Our community benefits enormously from the foundation instilled in those students attending VCMS. I understand the neighborhood concerns of traffic noise and aesthetics. After counting cars for a numbers of days at Lodi Avenue Baptist, I do not find any problems with traffic or future traffic. There is no benefit for cars attending VCMS to use "feeder streets" to arrive at Lodi Avenue Baptist. The residential streets do not align with the entrance or exit to the church parking lot, so there would be no advantage to using these streets. All pickupldrop off will be done in the church parking lot and not on Allen drive. The traffic impactto the neighborhood would be minimal and drop off /pickup consists of only about 20 minutes a day. This is such a tiny school of only 3 gradeslclasses of students. As far as curb appeal, I was a part of the original beautification of the Woodbridge Middle School site. I can attest to the desire to provide a beautiful environment for the students attending VCMS and in the process beautifying the surrounding neighborhood. We put a lot of effort into refurbishing the Woodbridge Middle School campus, knowing that it was only a temporary home; can you imagine what our permanent home will look like? I too, understand that change in your neighborhood is not always welcome. When we bought our house 13 years ago there was an empty field behind us. We knew that Lodi Memorial Hospital owned this property and could decide to expand on it. We lived there for 10 years with just a field behind us. Recently, Lodi Memorial has expanded and added new cancer center... right in my backyard. Yes, it is not as quiet as it once was but I am sure the families who need the cancer center are glad that it is there. Progress is necessary and sometimes we need to look beyond ourselves. The neighbors on Jackson, Walnut and Capell knew Lodi Avenue Baptist was there when they purchased their homes. 4/19/2006 Page 2 of 2 Churches are busy places and generally run a number of programs through there facilities besidesjust Sunday morning services. Most churches have activities going on every day of the week. Lodi Avenue Baptist Church just wants to do what any church in Lodi would like to do, share the use of their facilities. I encourage you to please uphold the Lodi Planning Commission's/Department's approval for the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church's Use Permit. Respectfully, Christi A. Hilscher 2406 Cochran Road Lodi. 95242 4/19/2006 RECEIVED At, R 19 2006 City Clerk City of Lodi April 10,2006 Members of the City Council of Lodi, Donald and Mary Colbert of 2133 Jackson Street - Benson Tract - Lodi are opposed to the proposed location of the school on the property of the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church. Many of us here have chosen this site to live because of the quietness of the area. We now deal with traffic from four other schools in our area, we do not feel that we should have to deal with the fifth. These schools are Reese, St. Peters, Millswood and Lodi High School. We have to find other routes to travel during the day leaving or returning to our homes, one more school would only add to our dismay. We are not opposed to schools and certainly not a Christian school, we are opposed to the noise and congestion. I am sure that none of you on the Council would welcome an institution on your street that would bring more noise and congestion. Please look at the map that Mrs. Paula Peterson will present to the Council, see how many of us are opposed. Secondly look at the amount of students that will attend that school from the Benson Tract, you will find only one family. Thank you for your time and consideration.

The school will house a limited number of students and, therefore, a limited number of portable buildings, which would seem to neutralize the argument that there will be an adverse traffic and aesthetic impact on the neighborhood. In addition, fund-raising events (a much larger traffic impact) will be held elsewhere in consideration of the residents of the neighborhood. It would seem that the irrational concerns of one retired couple, in particular is being given far too much attention. Rather than capitulating to resident's fears of highly unlikely issues, please use common sense and allow this project to go forward.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council determines that public convenience or necessity would be served by the issuance of Use Permit (U-05-20) and does hereby uphold the Planning Commission's decision and does hereby approve the request of Lodi Avenue Baptist Church for a Use Permit to allow VCMS to place a private 6"', 7"', and B"' grade school on the grounds of Lodi Avenue Baptist Church at 2301 West Lodi Avenue, subject to the following conditions as recommended by the Planning Commission: A. The final site plan and building elevations for the project be reviewed and approved by the City of Lodi Site Plan and Architectural Review Committee (SPARC) prior to any buildings being permanently located on the property. B. All construction is done with proper Building Department and Fire Department approvals and permits. C. The parking layout will be reconfigured to accommodate the school buildings and to maximize the number of parking spaces on the site. If parking problems develop for either the school or church, the City reserves the right to revisit parking needs and may require additional parking conditions. D. The VCMS shall modify the existing parking lot, including driveways to accommodate the traffic ingress and egress plan shown on Exhibit A This will require the closure cf the center driveway and new signing at the two remaining driveways. The northern driveway shall be signed "School Entrance" and the south driveway shall be signed "School Exit," "Right Turn Only." Additional pavement directional arrows may be required and the parking stalls realigned to match the direction of traffic flow. E The VCMS shall modify its school hours so it will not directly conflict with the hours of St. Peters Lutheran School. The hours can be earlier or later, whichever works better for the school. The time difference shall be at least 10 minutes. F. The VCMS shall prepare "Parking Lot Instructions," which shall be subject to review and approval by the Community Development Director. The School shall provide the family of each student a copy of the document and have them agree to adhere to the requirements. G. The VCMS shall have an adult monitor the drop-off and pick-up periods each school day. The monitorwill make sure that the traffic flows smoothly and safely by assisting parents and making sure that the "Parking Lot Instructions" are followed. The monitor shall also make sure that there is no unnecessary use of car horns or excessively loud car stereos. H. The VCMS shall upgrade the landscaping along Allen Drive to improve the appearance of the school from the street. These features will include new shrubs, trees, and any other items deemed appropriate by SPARC. The VCMS shall also construct a fence (the design to be approved by SPARC) along the east side of the school as a separator between the school grounds and Allen Drive. I. The VCMS shall provide an adequate number of garbage receptacles placed around the campus. The School shall monitor the litter problem, particularly during the lunch period to assure that litter is placed in the containers. The School shall also clean up any loose litter to prevent it from blowing onto neighboring properties or the street. J. The VCMS shall provide the neighbors with the name and telephone number of a school contact so that they can contact this person if there are any questions or problems related to the neighborhood that arise once the school is in operation at this location. K. The regular school hours shall be Monday through Friday approximately 8:30 a.m. to 3:10 p.m. (or modified per condition E) with some allowance for additional time for special school events. No outdoor competitive sport events other than those associated with physical education or normal school activities shall be held on-site. L. The VCMS shall coordinate its schedule for activities with the Lodi Avenue Baptist Church to minimize scheduling conflicts. M. Payment of Development Impact Mitigation Fees at building permit issuance. The fees represent the additional impact placed on City facilities by the use of the site fr school purposes. Public Works staff estimates that the fees will be $57,301.04. Fee calculations are shown on the Development Impact Mitigation Fee Summary Sheet, which will be provided to the applicant. The fees are based on information contained in the use permit application and represent 84 students, 5 full-time equivalent employees, a building area of 4,000 square feet, and a building pad area of 14,000 square feet. This is only an estimate. The actual fees to be paid will be based on the plans submitted for the issuance of a building permit for the proiect and will be those in effect at the time of issuance of the building permit. A change in the fees is anticipated in the near future. N. Installation of traffic signs and markings for the school zone in conformance with the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control will be required as a condition of approval for the building permit for the project. A layout prepared by City staff showing the locations of the required signs and markings is available for reference. The work must be completed prior to final inspection for the building permit or commencement of classes, whichever occurs first. O. The applicant may elect to have the traffic signs and markings done by City crews at the applicant's expense or by the applicant's contractor. If the work is done by City crews, the cost is estimated to be approximately $2,856.00 (cost estimate available), which will be collected at the time of issuance of the building permit. If the work is done by the applicant's contractor, the contractor shall obtain an encroachment permit from the Public Works Department prior to the commencement of work. All work shall be done in conformance with City standards and specifications. P. No variance from any City of Lodi adopted code, policy, or specification is granted or implied by the approval of this resolution. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this conditional use permit shall be subject to periodic review for compliance with these conditions by the Planning Commission.
