HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - February 16, 2005 AdjournmentContinued February 16,2005
In response to Mayor Pro Tempore Hitchcock, City Attorney Schwabauer offered the
following language to be included in the conditions of the resolution: "Wal-Mart shall
provide proof of sale of the existing Wal-Mart property located at 2350 West Kettleman
Lane prior to the issuance of the building permit for the new Wal-Mart Supercenter
without condition on the right of the purchaser to sell or tenant the existing Wal-Mart."
MOTION:
Council Member Hansen made a motion, Hitchcock second, to adopt the revised
Resolution No. 2005-38 (modifying Conditions R and EE) approving Use Permit File
No. U-02-12, to allow the construction of a commercial shopping center in the
Commercial Shopping (C -S) zone and sale of alcoholic beverages at the Wal-Mart
Supercenter, and tentative Parcel Map 03-P-001, to create 12 parcels for the project
relating to the Lodi Shopping Center; and further adding Condition FF that Wal-Mart shall
provide proof of sale, to a non Wal-Mart related entity, of the existing Wal-Mart property
located at 2350 W. Kettleman Lane prior to the issuance of the building permit for the new
Wal-Mart Supercenter without condition on the right of purchaser to lease or sell the
existing Wal-Mart building.
DISCUSSION:
Council Member Hansen believed that the majority of consumers in Lodi want this project
to proceed. They have had an opportunity to vote on whether or not there would be a
restriction on the size of retail, and have rejected it. Council has heard and weighed the
issues. He stated that this is a project that would allow Lodi to have some impact on the
seepage of tax dollars going outside the City.
Mayor Pro Tempore Hitchcock stated that Council has done its best to ensure the intent
of the Planning Commission to eliminate blight and to continue to maintain revenue. The
revised resolution provides the flexibility for a new building to be constructed at the old
Wal-Mart site, which may provide even more revenue and be a valuable resource to the
citizens of Lodi.

The above motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Council Members— Hansen, Hitchcock, Johnson, and Mounce
Noes: Council Members— None
