WHEREAS, in December of 2004, the Lodi City Council approved an electric utility rate
contract between the City of Lodi and the Robert Mondavi Corporation; and
WHEREAS, the utility rate contract provides this customer with an incentive to charge its
fleet of electric, battery-operated fork lifts after normal business hours. The contract was
developed to encourage major customers to purchase and utilize clean -burning, highly efficient,
battery-operated forklifts in various Lodi plant operations; and
WHEREAS, staff requests an amendment to the original contract to reflect the following:
1) remove the customer name "Robert Mondavi Corporation,,, and replace with the
name "Constellation Wines"; the Robert Mondavi Corporation consolidated operations with
Constellation Mines earlier this year; and
2) amend the original contract life of January 1, 2405 to December 31, 2007, to
September 1, 2005 to August 30, 2006, a three-year contract; due to unforeseen
circumstances, the required electric utility meter for this special project was not delivered by
the manufacturer to the City of Lodi Electric Utility Department until late July of this year (the
meter allows the utility to read electric usage data via telephone line communications and
download the data into a computer program for billing purposes).
NOW, THERFCRE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council hereby authorizes the
City Manager to execute an Amendment to the Electric Utility Rate Contract between the City of
Lodi and Constellation Nines (formerly Robert Mondavi Corporation) for the electric forklift
charging station pilot project,
