BOX 3006 RANDALL A. HAYS KIETH LAND LODI, CALIFORNIA 952 41-1 91 0 City Attorney PHILLIP A. PENNINO (209) 333-6711 FAX (209) 333-6842 February 7, 2000 Mr. Kai Luoma San Joaquin County Neighborhood Preservation 1810 East Hazleton Avenue Stockton, CA 95205 SUBJECT: APP.NO. SA-99-95; LANDSCAPING SERVICES Dear Mr. Luoma: A site pre-application for a landscaping services business has been referred to the City of Lodi for review and comment. The subject property is outside City limits on the west frontage of South Lower Sacramento Road, north of the intersection of Taylor Road. Our General Plan designates this property LDR, Low Density Residential. Any future annexation would likely be accompanied by prezoning the area to an R-1 or R-2 single- family residential designation. Under this scenario, future commercial development on this site of the type proposed, within Lodi City limits, would not be allowable. If the proposal is approved by the County, and the area is later annexed into Lodi as residential land, the business would constitute a legal non-conforming use. However, as the property is currently within the jurisdiction of San Joaquin County, the City of Lodi would not oppose the application with the following conditions. 1. Street Dedication: The Public Works Department recommends the applicant dedicate the necessary right of way to accommodate ultimate conditions along Lower Sacramento Road and at the Taylor Road curb return in accordance with the City's Street Master Plan. The Master Plan indicates four through lanes with left turns and a median. 2. Driveway Details: The City of Lodi has requirements for driveway widths and number of driveways as stated in the attached Design Standard Section 1.400. Based on a conversation with the applicant, he indicated the desire for a Taylor Road driveway and we agree it would improve on-site traffic circulation and allow fewer Lower Sacramento Road driveways. These driveways should be located as far as possible from the Taylor Road intersection for safety and traffic flow reasons.
