BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The city currently charges $2.00 per vehicle at Lodi Lake. The fees are collected Tuesday through Sunday, Memorial Day to Labor Day, and weekends during late spring and early fall. The city also offers annual passes and discount parking passes for frequent lake users. The annual pass may be used at any time the park is open while the discount parking pass can be used for 20 visits. Although these programs are intended to encourage frequent use of the park, only two annual passes and 12 discount parking passes have been purchased this year. The senior discount program is intended to encourage seniors to use the park on non -peak use days (Tuesday through Friday) when fees are collected. The discount program should help spread visitation over the week which would reduce pressure on the park during weekends and holidays. Also, the revenue produced from more senior daily parking fees and pass sales should offset any loss revenue. FUNDING: None.
