COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
AGENDA TITLE: Approve Draft Feasibility Report for the Proposed Lodi Redevelopment Project Area
MEETING DATE: June 7, 2000
PREPARED BY: Community Development Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the Agency Board approve the Feasibility Study for the proposed
redevelopment project.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Lodi City Council established the Lodi Redevelopment Agency on
July 7, 1999 (Ordinance No 1675). The City Council approved the
boundaries for a Redevelopment Survey Area in February 2000. The
selection of the Survey Area Boundary was the culmination of several
years of surveys and studies in Lodi's downtown and the surrounding area. City staff, working with consultants,
selected the Survey Area based on the need for redevelopment assistance. The designation of the survey area is
important because the final project area for the redevelopment plan must be within the boundaries of the survey
area, and may not include property that is outside the Survey Area.
The adopted Lodi Survey Area comprises approximately 1,432 acres of commercial, industrial, and residential land
uses. It also consists of rights of way (primarily roadways) that are primarily located north of Kettleman Lane,
south of Turner Road, east of Hutchins Street and west of Commerce Street in the City of Lodi.
INTRODUCTION: This Feasibility Report evaluates the opportunities and constraints of
establishing a redevelopment project in the City of Lodi. It
recommends boundaries for the proposed Lodi Redevelopment Project
Area, evaluates the area's eligibility for redevelopment, proposed
improvement projects and assesses financial feasibility. The Feasibility Report describes the reasons for selection
of the Recommended Project Area, the existing adverse physical and economic conditions in the Recommended
Project Area, and the proposed projects and activities for the proposed Redevelopment Plan. The Feasibility Report
also provides a preliminary assessment of financing methods and economic feasibility of the proposed
Redevelopment Project. Finally, the report outlines the steps that the City would undertake in order to adopt the
Redevelopment Plan, and provides a preliminary schedule.
A primary purpose in conducting this study is to identify the specific boundaries of the survey area that are eligible
for inclusion in a project area. The recommended project area boundary was developed based on a review of
background information, extensive field reconnaissance surveys and examination of maps and aerial photographs.
The Project Area recommended by the staff/consultant team encompasses approximately 1,138 acres of
commercial, industrial and residential land uses.
