WHEREAS, the City of Lodi has embarked on an aggressive Economic
Development Program to further stimulate business growth and economic
vitality in the City; and
WHEREAS, the citizens of Lodi, business leaders, City officials
and staff, have identified Downtown Revitalization as a significant
element of the Economic Development Program; and
WHEREAS, Downtown Lodi is in a state of deterioration with a high
vacancy rate and fewer citizens visiting Downtown Lodi; and
WHEREAS, through a community workshop series, the Lodi U.S.
Postal Office has been overwhelmingly identified as a major draw to
Downtown as a destination point; and
WHEREAS, the citizens, business community, City officials and
staff, have determined that Downtown Lodi needs a Downtown Plaza
located where the Lodi Post Office currently has a parking lot;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council requests
that the U. S. Postal Service work with the City of Lodi in a
cooperative spirit to explore the feasibility of siting a Downtown
Plaza on the southeast corner of Oak Street and School Street in
Downtown Lodi. It is the City's intention that this project not be a
burden on the Post Office in terms of cost or loss of facilities. The
City looks forward to an opportunity to work cooperatively with another
government agency to improve the quality of life in Lodi.
