Under the guidelines of the City of Lodi Public Benefits Program, new commercial construction projects are provided a rebate only for materials. The Public Benefits Program grant of $42,481.77 reflects 25 percent of the total cost of the high efficiency equipment upgrades installed at the new theater.
