AGENDA TITLE: Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider the Appeal of Bella Terra Plaza /
Rio Valley Charter School for Reconsideration of the Planning
Commission Project Indecision
MEETING DATE: February 17, 2016
PREPARED BY: Community Development Department
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Conduct a Public Hearing to consider the appeal of Bella
Terra Plaza / Rio Valley Charter School for reconsideration
of the Planning Commission project indecision.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On January 13, 2016, the Lodi Planning Commission held
a duly noticed public hearing for the Bella Terra Plaza / Rio
Valley Charter School request for a Use Permit to allow a
charter school into an existing tenant space at 1110 W.
Kettleman Lane.
The Rio Valley Charter School is a public charter school authorized by the Lodi Unified School
District. The Charter School offers an alternative to traditional schooling and utilizes
independent home schooling. Students do most of their schooling at home, coming to the site
only for scheduled one-on-one meetings with credentialed teachers, as well as tutoring and
small group workshops.
At the meeting the Planning Commissioners and members of the public asked a number of
questions about the charter school use and the current state of the proposed property.
Unfortunately, the property owner was not able to attend the meeting and some concerns could
not be answered and issues were unresolved. Based on the administrative record before them,
the Planning Commission voted to approve the project and ended in a 3 to 3 indecision. This
resulted in neither an approval nor denial of the project.
In an effort to move the project forward, the applicant is appealing the Planning Commission
decision to the City Council
At the meeting there were a number of concerns presented about the Bella Terra Plaza building
conditions, the compatibility of uses within the Plaza and the proposed charter school and the
charter school use in that development.
Representatives from the charter school were present to answer questions about the school
operations and any existing concerns from the current charter school location at 1530 West
Kettleman.

Concerns were raised about the current condition of the property involving a leaking building,
incompatible exiting tenant uses that include restaurants that serve alcohol and a massage
parlor, current homeless loitering in the area, student loitering at the commercial center and a
pattern of building improvements that are done without City oversight. The property owner was
unavailable to answer these questions and comments; they were not at the meeting.
The Council is being requested to reconsider the indecision. Concerned residential neighbors
and existing commercial tenants will be at the hearing.
Planning staff have prepared a draft resolution for approval and draft resolution for denial.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.

Dr. Marcy Grill, Vice Principal for Rio Valley Charter School, came forward to answer
questions. She gave a brief description of the style of school and the reason behind the
move to this location. She added that they are looking to partner with Impact Sports,
gymnastics business in the same area, for some of the student's physical exercise needs.
Dr. Grill added that she worked at a different charter school at this location years ago. The
school has been at their current location for four years and there have not been any
complaints.
• Commissioner Kirsten asked if while walking around the location had Dr. Grill encountered
any problems with leaky roofs or mold issues. Dr. Grill stated that she has not
encountered these problems, but she acknowledged that sh an academic administrator
not a contractor. If there are any issues with mold she adamant in having the
property management fix them to avoid any health pr s for the students and staff of
the school.
• Commissioner Kiser stated that he has tal with wrier of the gymnastic
establishment and he is very unhappy with re on he has from the management

loitering that the school may cause. Ms. Olson asked if there is a problem
with ymnastic establish and the number of students they have. Mr. Bianchi stated
that does not have any concerns with that business. He stated that business is a
cont ined situation. The kids are dropped off and picked up as soon as the classes are
over or the parents stay at the location while the class is being conducted. Ms. Olson
stated that is exactly what this type of school will be as well. The parents will drop off the
student by checking them in at the reception desk, then come back and pick them up at
that same location. Mr. Bianchi stated that because of the type of school there are
concerns with the quality of student that will be attending. He added that these types of
schools are geared toward trouble students. Ms. Olson stated her appreciation for the
comments, but disagreed with the sentiment.

• Commissioner Cummins stated his agreement with Ms. Olson statement. He added that
just because a parent chooses to send their child to an alternate learning facility does not
mean that they are a troubled student.
• Commissioner Slater clarified that the yellow mats that are being installed in the rear area
of the building are called truncated domes and they are installed for ADA path of travel.
He is concerned with that area being a designated path of travel for the sight. He stated
that he agrees with Commissioner Olson in that this type of school should not be an
indication of trouble students. He added that he has concerns with the facility not the
school.
Commissioner Kirsten stated that staff has stated that

asked if it could be possible that this use going into this space could clean up some of the
concerns that the residence have with the clientele that may be causing some of the
issues. Ms. Hutmacher stated that the conditions have really gone down pretty far at this
location and she does not see that being possible. She added that maybe if they had
security walking around the facility that might help.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LODI APPROVING THE
REQUEST OF BELLA TERRA PLAZA, LLC FOR A USE PERMIT TO ALLOW THE RIO
VALLEY CHARTER SCHOOL IN AN EXISTING TENANT SPACE AT 1110 W. KETTLEMAN
LANE
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lodi has heretofore held a duly noticed
public hearing, as required by law, on the requested Use Permit, in accordance
with the Lodi Municipal Code, Section 17.74; and
WHEREAS, the project proponents are Bella Terra Plaza, LLC, c/o Mr. Luis Bolinao, 201 Wilshire
Blvd, Suite A28 Santa Monica, CA 90401; and
WHEREAS, the project parcel is owned by Bella Terra Plaza, LLC, c/o Mr. Luis Bolinao, 201
Wilshire Blvd, Suite A28 Santa Monica, CA 90401; and
WHEREAS, the project is located at 1110 W. Kettleman Lane, Lodi, CA 95240 (APN: 060-370-
01); and
WHEREAS, the property has a General Plan designation of Mixed Use Corridor and is zoned
Planned Development (15); and
WHEREAS, a charter school requires the approval of a Use Permit by the Planning
Commission; and; and
WHEREAS, based upon the facts and analysis presented in the staff report, and public
testimony received and subject to the conditions of approval listed below, the
Planning Commission finds that the establishment, maintenance or operation for
the requested use or building applied for, will not, under the circumstances of this
particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience
and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such
proposed use, or be injurious or detrimental to property and improvements in the
neighborhood or to the general welfare of the City; and
WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred; and
Based upon the evidence within the staff report and project file the Planning Commission finds:
The project is found to be categorically exempt from CEQA review under 14 CCR §15303.
Class 3 consists of construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or
structures; installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures; and the
conversion of existing small structures from one use to another where only minor
modifications are made in the exterior of the structure and is consistent with the applicable
general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with the
applicable zoning designation and regulations and would not result in any significant effects
relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality, and the site of the proposed project can
be adequately served by all required utilities and public services.
2. The existing Westgate Shopping Center is zoned PD (15), the underlying designation is
general commercial. A school is allowed subject to a use permit in this zone. The project
has been conditioned to be consistent with the zoning code and the use will not be
detrimental to the welfare of persons or properties working, residing, or otherwise existing in
the adjacent neighborhood areas.
3. The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Mixed Use Corridor, which
permits the proposed use. The conditions for the restriction of the conditional use are
consistent with the General Plan, will not affect neighborhood compatibility; and will not
cause the operation of the conditional use to be detrimental to the welfare of persons or
properties working, residing, or otherwise existing in the adjacent neighborhood areas.
4. There are no proposed changes to the site and the proposed use is consistent with the
Zoning Code and the General Plan policies. As such, the subject site is adequate in size
and shape to accommodate the proposed use within a commercial area with all the
required off-street parking provided on the subject site. Further, the project will not have a
negative effect on the public health, safety, or welfare; or be materially injurious to persons,
properties or improvements in the vicinity.
5. The existing use complies with all requirements as set forth for the issuance of a Use
Permit, in that the site is adequate in size, shape and topography for the proposed use,
consisting of an existing building.
6. The site is located in a commercial area that is accessible from public streets. Existing
street networks are adequate in size and shape to accommodate the quantity and quality of
traffic generated by the proposed use without any significant impacts to the street system.
7. The proposed use, as conditioned, will not have an adverse effect upon the use, enjoyment
or valuation of property in the neighborhood because the proposed use will be located
within an existing facility and no expansion is proposed.
8. The proposed use, as conditioned, will not have an adverse effect upon the use, enjoyment
or valuation of property in the neighborhood because the proposed use will be located
within an existing building with no additions to the footprint of the building.
9. The proposed use would not have a substantial adverse economic effect on nearby uses
because operation of a restaurant/bar in accordance with applicable laws and under the
conditions of this Use Permit is anticipated to be an economic benefit to the community.
10. The proposed use can be compatible with the surrounding use and neighborhood if the
business is conducted properly and if the Applicant/Operator works with neighboring
businesses and residents to resolve any problems that may occur.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT DETERMINED AND RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of
the City of Lodi that Use Permit Application No. 2015-40 is hereby approved, subject to the

REQUEST
Bella Terra Plaza, LLC is requesting a Use Permit for existing Suites 9, 10 and 11 totaling 7,000
sq ft.
The tenant space previous contained a health club and karate studio.
Rio Valley Charter School is a public charter school authorized by the Lodi Unified School District.
The Charter School offers an alternative to traditional schooling and utilizes independent home
schooling. Students do most of their schooling at home, coming to the site only for scheduled
one-on-one meetings with credentialed teachers, as well as tutoring and small group workshops.
• Rio Valley serves students in grades K through 12.
• Rio Valley will serve a total of approximately 300 students, but no more than 30 to 40 students
would be at the facility at one time.
• Students will only come to the learning center during pre -scheduled appointment times.
• The school's operational hours will be Mondays — Thursdays, opening at 9:00 am and closing
by 3:30 pm, and Fridays from 9:00 am — 12:00 pm.
• The school would need approximately 45 to 50 parking spaces at peak demand.
The Rio Valley Charter School currently operates at 1530 W. Kettleman Lane and has for the past
three and a half years. The current charter school is comprised of 2 tenant spaces that are
separated by a mortgage company.
The Charter school is looking to consolidate the use into one space for efficiency. The Bella Terra
plaza also offers retail spaces that can complement the school use including restaurants and a
health club for physical education activities.
ANALYSIS
The discretionary Use Permit procedure enables Planning and other city staff to impose
conditions designed to avoid, minimize or mitigate potentially adverse effects of a certain use
upon the community or other properties in the vicinity. Staff believes that the Planning
Commission can make the required findings, in accordance with Lodi Development Code §
17.40.040(F), to approve the requested Use Permit. The required findings are as follows:
The proposed use is allowed with a Use Permit within the applicable zoning district and
complies with all applicable provisions of this Development Code. Comment: The existing
Terra Bella Plaza is zoned PD (15), the underlying designation is general commercial. A
school is allowed subject to a use permit in this zone. The project has been conditioned to
be consistent with the zoning code and the use will not be detrimental to the welfare of
persons or properties working, residing, or otherwise existing in the adjacent neighborhood
areas.
2. The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan.
Comment: The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Mixed Use
Corridor, which permits the proposed use. The conditions for the restriction of the
conditional use are consistent with the General Plan, will not affect neighborhood
compatibility; and will not cause the operation of the conditional use to be detrimental to
the welfare of persons or properties working, residing, or otherwise existing in the adjacent
neighborhood areas.
K
3. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the use or development is
compatible with and shall not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the health,
safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in the area, or be detrimental or injurious
to public or private property or improvements. Comment: There are no proposed changes
to the site and the proposed use is consistent with the Zoning Code and the General Plan
policies. As such, the subject site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the
proposed use within a commercial area with all the required off-street parking provided on
the subject site. Further, the project will not have a negative effect on the public health,
safety, or welfare; or be materially injurious to persons, properties or improvements in the
vicinity.
4. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use is compatible
with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity. Comment: The existing use complies
with all requirements as set forth for the issuance of a Use Permit, in that the site is
adequate in size, shape and topography for the proposed use, consisting of an existing
building. Second, the site is located in a commercial area that is accessible from public
streets. Existing street networks are adequate in size and shape to accommodate the
quantity and quality of traffic generated by the proposed use without any significant
impacts to the street system. Third, the proposed use, as conditioned, will not have an
adverse effect upon the use, enjoyment or valuation of property in the neighborhood
because the proposed use will be located within an existing facility and no expansion is
proposed.
5. The proposed project is in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) and the Lodi Environmental Review Guidelines. Comment: The project is found
to be categorically exempt from CEQA review under 14 CCR §15303. Class 3 consists of
construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures;
installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures; and the conversion of
existing small structures from one use to another where only minor modifications are made
in the exterior of the structure and is consistent with the applicable general plan
designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with the applicable zoning
designation and regulations and would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic,
noise, air quality, or water quality, and the site of the proposed project can be adequately
served by all required utilities and public services.
Staff believes the Commission can make the required findings to approve the Use Permit as
proposed. In staff's opinion, the proposed modification would not produce any adverse impacts on
the adjacent properties in terms of noise, parking, litter, disorderly behavior, or other objectionable
influences. The permit is conditioned to mitigate typical concerns related to traffic and parking
associated with a school. If, in the future, concerns arise, and the Director/Police Department
determines it necessary, the Use Permit can be subject to review by the Planning Commission to
consider the business's operation for compliance with the conditions of the Use Permit.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
The project is found to be categorically exempt from CEQA review under 14 CCR §15303. Class
3 consists of construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures;
installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures; and the conversion of
existing small structures from one use to another where only minor modifications are made in the
exterior of the structure and is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all
applicable general plan policies as well as with the applicable zoning designation and regulations
and would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality,
9
and the site of the proposed project can be adequately served by all required utilities and public
services.
PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE:
Legal Notice for the Use Permit was published in the Lodi News Sentinel on Saturday, January
2, 2016. Sixty-two (62) public hearing notices were sent to all property owners of record within a
300 -foot radius of the project site as required by California State Law §65091 (a) 3. Public
notice also was mailed to interested parties who expressed their interest of the project.
RECOMMENDED MOTIONS
Should the Planning Commission agree with staff's recommendation, the following motion is
suggested:
"I move that the Planning Commission adopt a Resolution finding that the project is exempt
from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15303, and adopt
a Resolution approving the Use Permit to allow the Rio Valley Charter School in an existing
tenant space at 1110 W. Kettleman Lane subject to the findings and conditions of approval
contained in the draft Resolution."

• Approve the request with attached or alternate conditions
• Deny the request
• Continue the request.

Re: Use Permit to allow a charter school at 1110 Kettleman Lane
Dear Craig,
A Notice of Public Hearing to consider a request for Planning Commission approval of a use
Permit to allow a charter school in an existing tenant space at 1110 Kettleman Lane was sent to
our neighborhood. Applicant Bella Terra Plaza, LLC; File 2015-40 U; CEQA Determination
Exempt per Section 15303. We have concerns about the school and would like to express them
in this letter. If stipulations could be included in the use permit to ease our concerns it would be
greatly appreciated. Our requests are as follows:
1. There will be no access to the school through the alley doorways.
No student drop-offs in the alley.
2. The students will not be allowed in the alley at anytime.
3. There will be no loitering in the surrounding neighborhoods.
We also have concerns about the building maintenance. We have gone before the Commission
when the building was originally approved -The windows on the second story are all supposed
to be obscured glass with only the top panel opening. There is now a Yoga studio with a clear
glass window that is open most of the business hours. There is also a sliding glass door that was
installed during remodeling that is still there. If someone were to step out they would fall
directly to the ground. There is also construction going on in the alley at all hours and days of
the week. Presently there are doors being replaced with clear glass and curbs being poured. We
would like to know if permits have been issued for the work and is this planned for alley access.
Prior to the construction the doors were solid metal and used for delivery only. We would also
like the following stipulation included in the use permit and be completed prior to tenant
occupancy.
4. All windows are to be replaced on the second story to the original code.
Please let us know if our stipulations will be included in the use permit. Thank you for your help
with this matter.
Sincerely,
Linda Bianchi representing
The surrounding Neighborhood of Chianti Drive and Brandywine

shall include an accessible entrance, an accessible route to the altered area, at least one
accessible restroom for each sex, telephones and drinking fountains (if existing), and when
possible, additional items such as parking, storage and alarms.
If the construction costs of the alterations to the building are less than the current valuation
threshold of $139,934.00 and if the cost of the above listed accessibility upgrades are
disproportionate (exceeds 20 percent of the project without the upgrades), then the required
accessibility upgrades may be provided to the extent that is proportionate (20 percent of the
valuation) as per 2013 CBC, Section 11 B-202.4, Exception 8. In choosing which accessible
elements to provide, priority should be given to those elements that will provide the greatest
access.

I am writing to you in reference to a Planning Commission meeting of January 13, 2016.
At this meeting we reviewed the request of Rio Valley Charter School to relocate into the Terra
Bella Shopping Center. As you know, it was not approved and they are in the process of appealing our
decision.
Prior to the meeting, I as Chairman went to our legal counsel and suggested a postponement
due to a legal issue I had questions about. That was declined and we proceeded.
My concern is alcohol, Ordinance 23789, see attached. According to our legal staff this situation
is backwards from the way the ordinance is written. He states the "Letter of the Law" is, if a school or
children facility is already in place then an alcohol license cannot be issued within 600 feet of the
"existing" facility. In this case there are 4 liquor licenses already serving alcohol within 600 feet of the
proposed school site.
It seems like the old adage "What comes first the chicken or the egg! I stand on the essence of
the law: Alcohol/Children/600 feet, regardless of who is first.

Limited Fungal Inspection Report of;
Commercial Structure
1110 W. Kettleman Lane
Lodi, CA
On October 3, 2018, at your request, Sierra Environmental Testing & Consulting, Inc. (SETC,
Inc.) personnel completed an inspection at the above referenced site (subject site). The
purpose of the inspection was to assess the structure in relation to potential fungal growth.
The site observations, analytical data, findings, conclusions and any subsequent
recommendations are discussed below.
Inspection Observations
At the time of this inspection the structure appeared to be well maintained. The stucco of the
exterior of the southern facing wall had been removed and the plywood had been exposed
for several weeks. No moisture was detected on the interior walls.
Relative Humidity, Temperature and Moisture Content Readings
Relative humidity (RH) and temperature readings were collected from both the interior and
exterior of the subject property via hand held monitoring devices. A non -penetrating
moisture meter was utilized to measure the moisture content (MC) of building materials
throughout the inspected area(s). Typical or background levels are expected to be 10-12%
MC. Levels from 13-17% are considered damp and in excess of 18% is wet. In order to
prevent fungal growth, building materials should not exceed 13% MC. The RH, temperature
and MC were measured and recorded to determine the potential effects they may have on
fungal amplification.
Guidance on RH in occupied buildings is provided by the American Society of Heating,
Refrigerating and Air -Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) in the ANS/ASHRAE Standard 62-
2001, Ventilation for Acceptable indoor.+lir Qualify. The RH in habitable spaces preferably
should be maintained between 30% and 60% to minimize the growth of allergenic and
pathogenic organisms (e.g., dust mites, fungi and associated mycotoxins).
Guidance on air temperature in occupied buildings is provided in the ANSI/ASHRAE Standard
88-1992, Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy. The acceptable air
temperature ranges in the summer season from 75*F to 79*F (23*C to 26*C). These ranges
are dependent on available humidity where the lower temperatures coincide with higher
relative humidity and higher temperatures coincide with the lower relative humidity.
Findings- Relative Humidity, Temperature and Moisture Content Readings
At the time of the investigation, the observed temperatures and relative humidity were within
the ASHRAE acceptable levels for habitable spaces. No elevated moisture readings were
detected at the time of this inspection.

Sampling Protocol -Non -Viable Air Samples
Air samples are collected using Zefon brand Air -O -Cell (Spore Trap) cassettes. The samples
are collected using power air sampling pumps calibrated at 15 liters per minute (LPM).
Calibration is by a field rotometer previously calibrated utilizing a Gilibrator as a primary
standard. The spore trap -sampling device is useful in providing rapid analysis of airborne
contaminants in indoor air quality assessments. The samples are labeled and entered onto a
chain of custody and delivered to SETC, Inc. Laboratories in Lodi for analysis. Fungal spores
are identified by direct microscopy, a method that counts both viable and nonviable spores to
derive the total spore count. Samples are collected with the sampling area being in a "normal
use mode" or as close to normal use as possible. Sample collection locations were chosen
based on site observations, observed and reported conditions and forensic methods.
Interpretation of the analytical findings is based on comparison of the indoor samples and
outdoor samples. There are currently no regulations or guidelines to indicate "safe" or
"normal" levels, therefore indoor spore levels are typically expected to be equal to or less
than the outside air flora. Variation is an inherent part of microbiological air sampling and the
presence or absence of a few genera in small numbers should not be considered abnormal.
Conclusion
The air sample results did not indicate elevated spore types or non -reflective distributions
when compared to the outside air (sample) flora overall. See attached laboratory
documentation dated 10/9/18.
Limitations
This report is intended to assist Mr. Nejad in the areas specified only. No other observations
or interpretations should be implied for areas outside of the current scope of work. In the
event that changes to the scope of work are implemented, additional damage discovered or
additional information is revealed, the hygienist to implement should conduct a follow up
investigation said changes. The field observations, measurements, and research reported
herein are considered sufficient in detail and scope to form a reasonable basis for a limited
fungal contamination investigation of this subject property.
The assessment, conclusions, and recommendations presented herein are based upon the
subjective evaluation of limited data collected. They may not represent all conditions at the
subject property as they reflect the information gathered from specific locations. SETC, Inc.
warrants that the findings and conclusions contained herein have been promulgated in
accordance with generally accepted industrial hygiene methodology, standards and
practices and only for the subject property described in this report. No other warranties are
implied or expressed.
The limited fungal investigation has been developed to provide the Client with information
regarding apparent conditions relating to the subject property. Although SETC, Inc. believes
that the findings and conclusions provided in this report are reasonable; the assessment is
necessarily limited to the conditions observed and to the information available at the time of
the work. Due to the nature of the work, there is a possibility that there are hidden conditions
which could not be identified within the scope of the assessment or which were not apparent
at the time of our site work. The assessment is also limited to information available from the
Client at the time it was conducted.
It is also possible that the testing methods employed at the time of the report may later be
superseded by other methods. SETC, Inc. does not assume responsibility for changes in the
state of the art. SETC, Inc. does not guarantee that all fungal contaminated areas in the subject
properly were recognized during our evaluation. This report is limited only to the samples
taken and locations sampled. Additional sampling may be needed to further identify other
fungal affected areas inside the property not claim related.
We have employed state-of-the-art practices to perform this analysis of risk and identification,
but this evaluation is limited in scope to the areas listed above and or per client's request. No
demolition or product review was performed in attempts to reveal material compositions or
hidden areas of damage. Our services consist of professional opinions and recommendations
made in accordance with generally accepted consulting principles and practices, and are
designed to provide an analytical tool to assist the client. SETC, Inc. or those representing
SETC, Inc. bear no responsibility for the actual condition of the structure or safety of site
pertaining to fungal contamination regardless of the actions by the Client.
If you have any questions regarding this report, please contact (209) 628-6221.
