(Rev_ 4-85) FM .4., RICHARIYS RANCH ADDITION -- CITY SERVICE PLAN AND PRIME AGRICULTURAL CONVERSION STATEMENT. Enumeration of Services The City of Lodi provides sanitary sewer, water, storm drainage and electric power, as well as police and fire protection to all parcels within the City limits. Pacific Gas and Electric (P.G. & E.), Pacific Bell, and California Waste Removal provide natural gas, local telephone service, and refuse collection for all parcels within the City limits. Level and Range of Service The City of Lodi will provide the full level and range of required urban services. There are existing sanitary sewer, water, and storm drainage lines located within the Cherokee Lane right-of-way to the east and Stockt in Street right-of-way to the west. There is an existing park and storm drainage basin approximately one half of a mile to the west that will serve the project area (Salas Park). As stated above, electricity, police, fire, natural gas, refuse collection, and telephone service is available to the properties and will be provided by the City, P.G.&E., California Waste Removal, and Pacific Bell. Availability of Service All City and public utility company services are available to the property subject to the developer making the necessary line extensions. Future residential development areas establi-hed in the City's general plan land use element were prioritized based on their accessibility to existing and proposed utilities. The properties of the Richard's Ranch addition are all located within Priority Area One Much is the highest priority as established by the City's residential growth management ordinance. Improvements Required A routine requirement of the developer is to make any necessary utility and street extensions prior to development of the property. These improvements generally include the following: 1. Sanitary sewer -- Extensions of existing lines will be required prior to street improvements which will be necessary for the development of property. 2. Water -- Extensions of existing lines will be required prior to street improvements which will be necessary for the development of property. 3. Storm Drainage -- Extensions of existing lines will be required prior to street improvements which will be necessary for the development of property. July 13, 1993 Page - 2 4. Streets -- full street improvements on Cherokee Lane and Stockton Street, including curb, gutter, sidewalk, and widening of the pavement will be required prior to the development of properties requiring access to this right-of-way. Method of Financing All required service extensions and other improvements will be done by the developers at their expense. The City may participate in some of th- ,;ost if oversized lines are required or improvements are made that benefit surrounding p. opolnies. The developer will also be required to pay Development Impact Mitigation Fees to finance capital improvements of new and existing City services and utilities. Statement on the Conversion of Prime Agricultural Land Development of the Richard's Ranch properties will result in the conversion of approximately 42.75 acres of prime agricultural land, of which approximately 3.3 acres is currently developed as residences. The remaining 39.45 acres of land will be used for residences, a park and school site as determined in the City's pre -zoning and development review of the properties. All of the land in and around the City of Lodi is prime agricultural land; consequently, it is not possible to direct new developments toward non- prime agricultural land. The Richard's Ranch addition is a reasonable extension of the existing City limits. The entire north boundary of the Richard's Ranch Addition borders the City Limits at the proposed Johnson Ranch 2 single family residential subdivision. The entire east boundary fronts on Cherokee Lane. The entire west boundary fronts on Stockton Street. The two major collectors, Cherokee Lane and Stockton Street, provide the properties with access to be served by City and other utilities. The Richard's Ranch properties are within the General Plan boundaries of the City and the City's utility system has been designed to serve the properties.

All of the land in rnd around the City of Lodi is prime agricultural land; consequently, it is not possible to direct new developments toward non- prime agricultural land. The Richard's Ranch addition is a reasonable extension of the existing City limits. The entire north boundary of the Richard's Ranch Addition borders the City Limits at the proposed Johnson Ranch 2 single family residential subdivision. The entire east boundary fronts on Cherokee Lane. The entire west boundary fronts on Stockton Street. The two major collectors, Cherokee Lane and Stockton Street, provide the properties with access to be served by City and other utilities. The Richards Ranch properties are within the General Plan boundaries of the City and the City's utility system has been designed to serve the properties.

SCHROEDER E��on�l��ev'� Officer(�1_Bp Date �3 FIR/1-81 0 Project Description At the request of the property owners, the City of Lodi is proposing to annex three contiguous parcels of land totaling 43 acres to the City of Lodi. The properties are located adjacent to the southeast corner of the City, between South Stockton Street and the Hwy 99 frontage road and north of Harney Lane (see map). Current county addresses are 13737 North Cherokee Lane (APN 062-290-18), 13845 North Cherokee Lane (APN 062-290-07) and 13910 North Stockton Street (APN 062-290-08). The project applicants are also requesting a General Plan Amendment to redesignate the parcels from PR, Planned Residential, to LDR, Low Density Residential, and a prezoning to R-2, Residential Single -Family which would permit the proposed 215 lot single-family project. Site Description The subject properties are located adjacent to the southeast City limits. The properties all contain farm houses and related barns and structures. All three properties are in agricultural use, primarily vineyards. The properties are surrounded by urban uses on two sides. On the north are existing or proposed residential subdivisions, including Johnson. Ranch I and II subdivisions and the Bangs/Colvin subdivisions. On the west, across Stockton Street is an industrial subdivision with a mix of industrial and commercial uses. Salas Park/Basin is also located to the west. South of the subject properties are agricultural uses, including a commercial greenhouse operation. On the east is State Hwy 99. Possible Significant Environmental Impacts i. Substantial Reduction of Existing Cropland Construction of a residential subdivision on these parcels of land will convert 43 acres of prime agricultural land to urban uses. The only way to avoid this impact would be to prohibit any further development in and around Lodi. Since this would lead to an almost total ban on all new development, it is not a reasonable mitigation for this impact. The City has adopted a Growth Management Plan (GMP) in conjunction with their General Plan. The GMP limits new residential development to a maximum of 2% annually.. This 2'61 figure is less than historical rates and was specifically adopted to help limit the premature urbanization of agricultural land. While the GMP does not eliminate the conversion of prime agricultural land, it limits and regulates the amount of land converted to a reasonable level. Imoact - Less than significant. p. Substantially Increased Demand for Public Services, Including Schools The proposed project could result in the construction of 215 single-family residences. Based on a student generation rate of 0.96 students (K-12) per household, the project could generate approximately 206 school aged children. These students could impact the Lodi Unified School District (LUSD) which is currently experiencing difficulties with overcrowded schools. To mitigate this impact, the City will require as a condition of approval that the developers enter into an agreement with the LUSD. The developers must agree to pay the current school impaction fee -or its equivalent to help fund new classroom construction. An alternative would be for the developer to provide land to the school district for a site for a proposed middle school for that area. Impact - Less than significant. Summary The project will not have any significant environmental impacts that can not be mitigated to less than significant levels. The project conforms to the City's General Plan residential density levels for the area. These buildout levels were discussed and examined in the City's 4 EIR which was prepared for the General Plan, adopted in 1991. r�+ RESOLUTION NO. 93-94 saxxxs=xa:asaxxsaxazas A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL FOR APPLICATION TO THE SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY LOCAL AGENCY FORMATION COMMISSION IN THE MATTER OF THE PROPOSED "RICHARDS RANCH ADDITION" ANNEXATION/REORGANIZATION, INCLUDING THE DETACHMENT OF CERTAIN TERRITORY WITHIN THE AREA PROPOSED FOR ANNEXATION TO THE CITY OF LODI sasssaaasscassssasaasssasaasxasasa:aaazaaasaaazaasaaaaazaaaaaasaszaaaaa WHEREAS, this proposal is made pursuant to the Local Government Reorganization Act; and WHEREAS, the nature of the proposed change of organization is the annexation to the City of Lodi of a combined area comprising 42.75 acres more or less adjacent to the City limits located within the area located on the west bide of South Cherokee Lane and the east side of South Stockton Street northerly of Harney Lane; and withdrawal of said 42.75 acres from the Woodbridge Rural County Fire Protection District and Northern San Joaquin County Water Conservation District, located within the area to be annexed to the City of Lodi, (APN's 062-290-18, 062-290-08, and 062-290-07), as described in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference; and WHEREAS, no other counties, citieR, or districts are affected, and; WHEREAS, the subject area proposed to be annexed to the City of Lodi and detached from the Woodbridge Rural County Fire Protection District and Northern San Joaquin County Water Conservation District is uninhabited; and WHEREAS, no new districts are proposed to be formed by this reorganization, and; WHEREAS, the reasons for this proposal are as follows: (1) The uninhabited subject area is within the urban confines of the City and will generate service needs substantially similar to that of other incorporated urban areas which require municipal government service; (2) Annexation to the City of Lodi of the subject area will result in improved economics of scale in government operations while improving coordination in the delivery of planning services; (3) The residents and taxpayers of the County of San Joaquin will benefit from the proposed reorganization as a result of savings to the County by reduction of County required services in unincorporated but urban oriented area; -1- I (4) The subject area proposed to be annexed to the City of Lodi is geographically, socially, economically and politically part of the same urban area of which the City of Lodi is also a part; (5) The subject area is within the Lodi Sphere of Influence; (7) Future inhabitants in the subject area will gain immediate response in regard to police and fire protection, unlimited City garbage and trash collection service, street lighting service, a modern sewer system, other municipal services. and improvement of property values; NOW, THEREFORE, 8E IT RESOLVED by the Lodi City Council that t:ie San Joaquin County Local Agency Formation Commission is hereby requested to approve the proposed "Richards Ranch Addition" which includes annexation of a combined 42.75 acres more or less, and detachment from the Woodbridge Rural County Fire Protection District and Northern San Joaquin County Water Conservation District, as described in Exhibit A attached hereto.
