SCHROEDEcR Confiunity Development Director i jr 1 Excerpts from Planning Commission Minutes of April 12, 1993 The next public hearing was the request of J. Jeffrey Kirst for a General Plan amendment to (1) redesignate the parcels located within the area bounded by the Woodbridge Irrigation District canal on the north and east, West Kettleman Lane (State Route 12) on the south, and Lower Sacramento Road on the west from PR, Planned Residential, and 0, Office, to LDR, Low Density Residential, and 0, Office; (2) to prezone the same parcels to R-2, Single -Family Residential and R -C -P, Residential- Commercial- Professional; and (3) to certify the filing of a negative declaration by the Community Development Director as adequate environmental documentation on the above projects. Community Development Director Schroeder introduced this matter to the Planning Commission. Mr. Schroeder explained that the project area is an island of the county that is almost totally surrounded by the City. For that reason, when the applicant requested annexation of his property to the City, it was decided that the entire area between Lower Sacramento Road and the Woodbridge Irrigation District canal would all have to be annexed to the City at one time. Mr. Schroeder explained that he was recommending one change from the proposed prezoning request instead of designating the entire residential area as R-2, he recommended that the strip of land immediately south of the Sunwest Subdivision be prezoned R-1, requiring lot sizes of 6500 square feet which would be more consistent with the larger lots in the Sunwest Subdivision. He felt that a strip approximately 300 feet in depth would be sufficient. The remainder of the area would be prezoned R-2, a single-family zone that allows smaller lot sizes. The 300 foot strip adjacent to Kettleman Lane would be given a zoning of R -C -P, Residential -Commercial -Professional. Commissioner Griffith asked if the City has an exclusive office zone, one that permits only office uses. Mr. Schroeder stated that the closest zoning would be the R -C -P zoning, primarily an office and professional zoning but it allows certain types of residential uses. Commissioner Griffith asked if this would include residential or apartment uses. Mr. Schroeder indicated that these types of uses are permitted in the R -C -P zone to a density not to exceed 10 units per acre. Chairman Mindt then opened the public hearing to the audience and asked if anyone wished to speak on this matter. The first speaker was Jeff Kirst. Mr. Kirst stated that he had signed an agreement with Lodi Unified School District for his property, agreeing to pay the required school impaction fees. He stated that he was not sure about the other properties, although he felt some of the other property owners were also in the process of entering into agreements with the school district. He stated he did not oppose the requirement of R-1 zoning adjacent to the Sunwest Subdivision. He did, however, request some flexibility on the requirement for a 300 foot width for the R-1 zoning. He stated that the actual width may be plus or minus 25 feet depending on the final layout of the lots and the street width. He anticipated that there would be two rows of lots with a center street, but he wasn't sure of the exact dimension that would be required. The Commission agreed to allow some flexibility in that dimension. T The Commission asked Mr. Kirst if he plans to have residential uses within the portion of R -C -P zoning on his property. He stated he has no plans for residential uses at present. The next speaker was Darrell Sasaki, 1806 West Kettleman Lane, Lodi. Mr. Sasaki stated he represents two properties located at the east end of the subject area. He stated that the property owners he represents are in favor of the proposal and are willing to sign agreements with Lodi Unified School District. The next speaker was Joe Handel. Mr. Handel stated that he owns property adjacent to the existing Nazerine Church. He is in favor of the proposal and added they are planning to put a retirement facility on their portion of the property adjacent to Kettleman Lane. The final speaker was Mamie Starr, Lodi Unified School District. Ms. Starr explained that the school district has been in contact with most of the property owners in the subject area and was attempting to obtain funding agreements with the property owners. She noted thpt because of the number of different property owners, the process was taking longer than normal. She hoped, however, to have signed agreements with all the property owners prior to the matter being reviewed by the City Council. Following the public hearing, the Planning Commission took the following actions. On a motion by Commissioner Rasmussen and a second by Commissioner Griffith, the Planning Commission, on a 4-0 vote, approved the certification of a negative declaration by the Community Development Director as adequate environmental documentation on the proposed project. Next, on a motion by Commissioner Rasmussen and a second by Commissioner Griffith, approved the request for a General Plan amendment to redesignate the parcels located within the area bounded by the Woodbridge. Irrigation District canal on the north and east, West Kettleman Lane (State Route 12) on the south, and Lower Sacramento Road on the west from PR, Planned Residential, and 0, Office, to LDR, Low Density Residential, and 0, Office and to prezone the same parcels in the following manner: a 300 foot+/- strip immediately south of the Sunwest Subdivision to R-1, Residential, Single -Family. The remainder of the residential area to be prezoned R-2, Residential, Single Family and the 300 foot strip adjacent to Kettleman Lane to be prezoned R -C -P, Residential- Commercial - Professional. The motion was approved on a 4-0 vote. li . CITY COUNCIL PH16LIP A. PENNINO. Wvor JACK A. SIECLOCx Mavor NO Tempane RAY C. DAVENPORT STEPHEN 1. MANN 10HN R. (RanOv) S.

Thomas et al (1) for a General Plan Amendment to redesignate the parcels at 13737 North Cherokee Lane, 2250 South Stockton Street and 13845 North Cherokee Lane from Planned Residential to Low Density Residential; (2) to prezone the same parcels R-2, Single -Family Residential; and (3) to certify the filing of a negative declaration by the Community Development Director as adequate environmental documentation on the above projects. Community Development Director Schroeder introduced this matter for the Planning Commission. Mr. Schroeder explained that the proposed development is consistent with the previously approved subdivisions in the area. The applicants are requesting approval of the General Plan Amendment and Prezoning so they may begin annexation procedures to bring the three properties into the City. Once the properties are annexed to the City the applicants will be required to return to the Planning Commission with a more specific development pian for their approval. Chairman Mindt opened the public hearing for comments from the public. The first speaker was Lowell Flemmer, 558 Riverside Drive, Woodbridge. Mr. Flemmer stated that he represents the Richards Ranch property but was also speaking for the Gallegos and Beckman properties. He felt the proposal is a good project, consistent with the surrounding area. He noted that the project includes both a school site, as requested by the Lodi Unified School District, and a park site, as requested by the City of Lodi. The map before the Planning Commission was somewhat tentative since neither the school district nor the City of Lodi have made final comnitmen;s to the location or configuration of the proposed school and park. He hoped these matters would be worked out prior to returning to the Planning Commission with a specific development pian. Commissioner Griffith asked about the possibility of inclusionary or affordable housing within this project. Mr. Flemmer stated that they are attempting to make the housing as affordable as possible. However, as planned, the project would contain only single-family lots. The next speaker was Jeff Kirst, 18826 North Lower Sacramento Road, Woodbridge. Mr. Kirst explained that the applicants had been in negotiation with the Lodi Unified School District. The plan shows a school site which will be offered to Lodi Unified School District. If the district does not want or need the school site, the land will be converted to single-family hoRie sites. he stated that they are in the process of signing �n agreement for school fees with the school district. The next speaker was Mamie Starr of the Lodi Unified School District. Ms. Starr stated that the school district is neither opposed nor in favor of the project. The school district's only request was that the approval of the project be conditioned upon the property owners signing written agreements with the school district for the payment of the appropriate school impaction fees. Following the hearing on this project, the Commission took the following actions. On a motion by Commissioner Griffith and a second by Commissioner Rasmussen, the Planning Commission, on a 4-0 votes approved the certification of the negative declaration as adequate environmental documentation on this project. i Next, on a motion by Commissioner Rasmussen and a second by Commissioner Griffith, the Planning Commission, on a 4-0 vote, approved the General Plan amendment request to redesignate the parcels at 13737 North Cherokee Lane, 2250 South Stockton Street and 13845 North Cherokee Lane from PR, Planned Residential, to Low Density Residential and to prezone the same parcels to R-2, Single -Family Residential.

Lod?s General Plan has identified the conversion of prime agricultural land as an adverse impact of development. This project will convert some prime agricultural land to urban uses; however, of all the annexations to the City cf Lodi, this one is the moot logical considering its isolation from other San Joaquin County agricultural Iands. The parcels which together make up this project constitute a peninsula of San Joaquin County bordered on all sides except a portion of the west by the City of Lodi. The city's General Plan specifies that it shall encourage the preservation of agricultural uses surrounding the city and that support of agricultural uses shall continue until such time that urban development is hm inent. Policies in the conservation element of the General Plan are aimed at delaying the loss of prime agricultural lands and facilitating such uses. Some of these policies include adopting a "right to farm" ordinance for adjacent landowners, establishing buffer zones between urban uses and agricultural uses, and designating an open space greenbelt around the urbanized area of the city. It is reasonable to expect that this land could not feasibly continue as an agricultural use because of the existing surrounding commercial and residential uses. In light of this, the impacts of the conversion of this farmland are deemed to be less than significant. o. Required system -wide improvements necessary to serve this annexation have been accounted for in the General Plan. For this project, such improvements include, enlarging ; the existing drainage basin south of Century Blvd. (G Basin) to add needed capacity and extending new water, sewer, and electrical lines to serve the annexed properties. The city periodically prepares new public works capital improvement needs assessment studies to insure that required services will always be sufficient to meet the increased demand on water, sewer, storm drain, and electric-il services. The city assesses residential and commercial development on a "fair share" basis in order to provide necessary service extensions. The additional service extensions will be developed in accordance with the city's master plan for development and the impacts are therefore mitigated to less than significant. p. The city will assess fees on a "fair share" basis on all new development to fund any required additional police and fire services. The city endeavors to maintain a staff ratio of 3.1 police officers per 1,000 population with response times averaging three (3) minutes for emergency calls and 40 minutes for non emergency calls. The city will also add personnel, equipment, or facilities necessary to maintain a minimum three (3) minute travel time for fire calls. Such efforts mitigate the impacts on police and fire services to less than significant. Additionally, confusion by emergency personnel regarding the location of these properties when responding to a call further justify annexation to the city. The city will assist the Lodi Unified School District with the siting of school facilities to insure optimum placement and will require developers to coordinate their efforts with the LUSD in an attempt to minimize or prevent school overcrowding. The city supports efforts by the Lodi Unified School District to collect school facility fees which are assessed on new development to provide the necessary facilities. q. The city periodically updates public works capital improvements needs asses studies to insure that new facilities called for in the General Plan Circulation Element remain consistent with the city's growth projections. A traffic fee schedule applied to new developments, and state and federal funds where appropriate will pay for needed new traffic infrastructure to meet the increased demand. r The city's General Plan is based on a two (2) percent limit on annual housing growth. Development will be regulated based on a building permit allocation system so as not to exceed two percent growth in any given year. Since this annexation is consistent with the General Plan's intent for residential and commmialdevelopmennt and will not exceed the growth limitations, the impacts are deemed to less than significant. i r Notice is hereby given that the City of Lodi Planning Departtaent has determined that the following proposal will have no "Significant Impact on the Enviroaraent'. Supporting documentation is available in the fora of a 'Preliminary Environmental Assessment• and is avail- able for public review in the Planning Departaent Office, City Rall Building, 221 W.

SCHROEDER ErGi,1rronmen( a�l Review Officer ? Byk,tiCj[ Vliilfi�tu(,^ Date) J7 EIR/1-81 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 Paris/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 21 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. Impact - Less than significant. p. Substantially Increased Demand for Public Services, Including c3`�io-07 s 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 envirom ental impacts that can not be :mitigated to less than significant levels. The project conforms to the City's General Pian residential density levels for the area. These buildout levels +fere discussed and examined in the City's EIR which was prepared for the General Plan, adopted in 1991. a i
