That the preparation of the said Housing Element requires the gathering of a great deal of factual data and information and assimilating that informa- tion into the Housing Elements; 3. That there was a misjudgment made as to the nature and scope of the data required to be assembled for the report; -I- 4. That during the 1976-77 Fiscal Year, the City of Lodi was confronted with a serious fiscal problem resulting in layoffs of employees in departments other than the Community Devel- opment Department; although there was no reduction of Staff in this Department, the day- to-day work of the Staff was necessarily in- creased and the City could not afford to hire additional Staff to work on the Housing and/or Noise Element: 5. That the Bureau of Census Report of 1970 inso- far as it relates to the City of Lodi, contained errors and omissions of factual data that needed to be gleaned therefrom for the preparation of the Housing Element; that as a result of said errors and omissions, it has been necessary for the Staff of the City to make field surveys and checks to correct such errors and omissions which are now being done and which corrections of errors have to be approved by the Bureau of Census; 6. That the preparation of the Housing Element cf the General Plan of the City of Lodi is now being worked on full time by a member of the Staff of the Community Development Department, namely, Keith Jones and he is being assisted by a college intern from the University of the Pacific, and as a result it is anticipated that the Housing Element of the General Plan of the City of Lodi should be approved, completed and adopted on or before December 31, 1978; 7. That all other statements in the preamble in the resolves of Resolution No. 78-18 are re -adopted as if set forth in full.
