CALIFORNIA 95241-1910 (209) 334-5634 RE: Amend Howard Street Specific Plan THOMAS A. PETERSON City Manager ALICE M. REIMCHE City Clerk RONALD M.STEHV City !lorry At its meeting of Monday, July 28, 1986 the Lodi City Planning Commission recommended to the City Council that your request to amend the Specific Plan of Howard Street by realigning the bulb turnaround between 350 and 360 North Loma Drive, in an area zoned R-2, Single - Family Residential be denied. It was the Planning Commission determination that the existing plan best served both properties and provided a higher degree of equity in paying for the street improvements. The Planning Commission's recommendation has been forwarded to the City Council for final hearing and determination. The City Clerk will inform you of the time and place of the Council's hearing. Sincerely, JES B. SCHRO ER pity Development Director cc: Duane M. Linstrom City Clerk C July 28, 1986 To: Members of the Planning Commission for the City of Lodi From: Duane N. Linstrom, Purcbaser/Owner of 360 N. Loma Dr., Lodi Subject: Proposed Cul de Sac for the North termination of Howard Street It is my request that the proposed and previously accepted plan to intrude into the properties at 350 and 360 be maintained, as is, for these reasons,: 1. Wben the original petition was circulated and areas determined in our com- munity for garden apartments, Mr. Ray Welsh and I did Dot participate, as we regarded our homes for residences and not for investments. 2. When the City commenced issuing permits to build the multiple dwellings, they consulted with we to determine if I wanted to potentially run Howard St. through our lot, or would I afford Mr. Welsh access to 350 by 8 otential cul-de-sac? We opted to be "good neighbors` and to "live and le live". t 3. Accordingly, I employed the services of Mr. Piazza, who came to the res- idence and made a careful survey and drawing. His design allowed for three lots, each of minimal legal sizes for R-1 Dwellings,, for wb4:n; the zoning on both pieces of property remains. 4. Because of the costs of the items of work necessary to make this imp- rovement, it will be necessary for me to have the proceeds from.selling the other two lots to pay for it. In that way, I can continue to live there. At my age, I could not qualify for sufficient improvent loans. 5. I would appreciate your consideration of both the aesthetics involved in the eventual improvement. As proposed, it will have a certain beauty to it, which will enhance the community. (There is a similar arrangement on Pacific Avenue, north of Lockeford Street). A plain "bulb" will cheapen the neighborhood, and be an eye sore. 6, A "bulb" will also enlarge the lot at 3509 at the expense of our property, and make it more desirable for multiple units, negating our efforts, Mr. Welsh and myself,, to afford a buffer for our friends and neighbors. 7. And finally, there is the real issue of economics. The proposed cul -de - Sac was a part of public records, accessible to all potential purchasers of 350 North Loma Drive. There was considerable interest shown once the property was advertised as being available. Clearly that property was shown to be en-' cumbered with at least twenty -percent of the cost of the improvement. That obligation was considered to be a part of the cost of the lot.
