WHEREAS, the City Council directed staff to prepare a computer-based storm drainage model
for the B-2 Basin (Lockeford Street area) due to severe flooding; and
WHEREAS, staff has found that most of the drainage facilities studied perform well under the
two-year storm event, causing the most severe flooding at the storm drain trunk line along Holly Drive,
Cross Street, and ending at Lockeford Street; and
WHEREAS, the storm drain trunk line is undersized for the intensity of development in the area;
and
WHEREAS, staff has investigated several alternatives to relieve the persistent storm drainage
problems in the Lockeford Street area, using a computer model to select the best alternative; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends rerouting the storm drainage from the Lockeford Street area
westerly to the Mills Avenue storm drain trunk. This recommendation has a lower cost but still provides a
level of service comparable to the rest of the City; and
WHEREAS, in order to expedite this project, staff recommends that the City Council approve the
design concept for Lockeford Street Storm Drainage Improvements, approve the plans and specifications,
authorize advertisement for bids, authorize the City Manager to award or reject the contract up to
$142,000.00, and further appropriate funds for this project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council does hereby approve the
design concept for Lockeford Street Storm Drainage Improvements, approves the plans and specifications
and authorizes advertisement for bids, and further authorizes the City Manager to award or reject the
contract up to $142,000.00; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that funds in the amount of $142,000.00 be appropriated from the
Storm Drainage Impact Fees and Wastewater Operation Funds for this project.
