AGENDA TITLE: Set Public Hearing for September 6, 2023, to Consider Adopting a Resolution Approving Revised Planning Division related fees for FY 2023-24 with fees effective thirty days following authorization of the resolution.
MEETING DATE: August 16, 2023
PREPARED BY: Community Development Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Set Public Hearing for September 6, 2023, to consider adopting a resolution approving revised Planning Division related fees for FY 2023-24 with fees effective thirty days following authorization of the resolution.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Planning Fee Schedule reflects Planning Division application fees as authorized by Lodi Municipal Code (LMC) Section 17.38.050. The fee schedule was intended to be
amended periodically so that fees reflect current costs to provide services, to bring fees closer to full cost recovery targets, to add new fees when applicable for new City services, and/or to eliminate fees for discontinued services.
The California Constitution grants cities the authority to establish fees to recover the cost of providing services. The City contracted with MGT of America Consulting (MGT) to conduct a comprehensive review and update Planning fees for the Community Development Department’s Planning Division.
A public hearing is required to consider adopting a resolution approving revisions to the Planning Division’s fee schedule, which has not been updated in over a decade.
Staff recommends City Council set the public hearing to consider adopting a resolution approving the revised Planning Division fees for FY 2023-24.
STRATEGIC PRIORITY ADDRESSED: Strategic Milestone 3C: Ensure elected leaders and staff retain focus on fiscal priorities.

COMMENDED ACTION: Public hearing to consider adopting resolution setting future solid waste rates pursuant to Proposition 218 for residential customers.
B
ACKGROUND INFORMATION: CalRecycle has adopted regulations consistent with the mandates associated with Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383). The mandates are designed to achieve the organic waste reduction goals established in Section 39730.6 of the Health and Safety Code through a 50 percent reduction in the level of statewide disposal of organic waste from the 2014 level by 2020; and a 75 percent reduction in the level of statewide disposal of organic waste from the 2014 level by 2025. This is an unfunded State mandate.
T
he City is required to comply with these regulations to assist the State in achieving the organic waste reduction levels outlined above. The main requirements resulting from the regulations include the adoption of an enforcement ordinance, implementation of mandatory weekly residential and commercial food waste collection, and education and outreach. Jurisdictions are required to implement SB 1383 by January 1, 2022.
At the February 16, 2022 Council meeting, Council adopted the Notice of Intent to Comply (NOIC). By filing the NOIC, CalRecycle is authorized to waive civil penalties until January 1, 2023, if a jurisdiction intends to comply with the SB 1383 requirements. On March 2, 2022, Council introduced an ordinance amending the Lodi Municipal Code Title 13 “Public Health Services,” which allows the City to enforce SB 1383 requirements on residents and businesses beginning January 1, 2024.
S
taff is currently working with Waste Management to provide substantial outreach to our customers regarding organics recycling requirements with residential organics recycling service to commence by April 1, 2023.
Staff is also working with Waste Management on a proposed contract extension that will incorporate the new SB 1383 requirements. New proposed rate schedules and information were supplied to the City Council at the June 13, 2023 Shirtsleeve meeting, prior to mailing Proposition 218 protest hearing notices (English and Spanish translations) and preliminary to a public hearing to consider adopting the proposed rate schedules for the period from September 1, 2023 through March 31, 2028. The rate schedules set maximum limits on the solid waste rates for the next five years, and each year the City Council will be requested to approve the actual rates to be implemented. At the public hearing on August 16, 2023, the City Council will be asked to receive public comment and adopt resolutions setting future adjustments to solid waste rates with limits for the period September 1, 2023 through March 31, 2028.

RECO
MMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution authorizing City Manager to execute Amended and Restated Franchise Agreement with USA Waste Service of California, Inc., dba Central Valley Waste Services, for solid waste collection, recycling, and organic waste collection and processing services in the City of Lodi.
BA
CKGROUND INFORMATION: USA Waste Service of California, Inc., dba Central Valley Waste Services (WM), has provided excellent service with reasonable rates to the City since 1988. Under the existing franchise agreement, WM has the option of renewal for an additional seven years under the current contract terms by giving notice no later than the seventh anniversary of the commencement date of January 1, 2009. Thereafter, at the City’s option, and with WM concurrence, the agreement is renewable for successive seven-year increments. On April 7, 2010, the agreement was amended to provide WM with one additional option to extend. This option gave WM the unilateral option to extend the agreement an additional seven years commencing on January 1, 2024 and ending December 31, 2030, by giving notice to the City no later than December 31, 2022.
Ear
ly in 2022, staff began negotiations with WM on an amended franchise agreement. New regulations associated with Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383) prompted the early agreement negotiations. The implementation of the mandatory residential food waste collection, required under SB 1383, will result in additional costs to both the City and WM, prompting amendments to the current agreement. In subsequent meetings with City Council, staff and WM outlined a number of changes and new programs, and have negotiated an amended and restated agreement consistent with the discussions held at those meetings.
Th
e form of the new franchise agreement is similar to the existing agreement. Incorporated into this new agreement are all of the existing programs and services with some minor enhancements to those programs, services and costs, as outlined below:
• New SB1383 Residential Rate Structure
• Annual payment of $125,000 for one full time employee to support City’s CalRecycle programs, indexed annually
• Increase Street Maintenance Fee paid to the City by $330,000, for a total of $1,122,990.78 annually, to maintain roadways, indexed annually
• New Downtown Maintenance Fee of $100,000 paid to City annually, indexed annually Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Execute Amended and Restated Franchise Agreement with USA Waste Service of California, Inc., dba Central Valley Waste Services, for Solid Waste Collection, Recycling, and Organic Waste Collection and Processing Services in the City of Lodi August 16, 2023

AGENDA TITLE: Receive Initial Presentation and First Year-to-Date Report from the Community Improvement Division of the Community Development Department MEETING DATE: August 16, 2023
PREPARED BY: Community Development Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Receive initial presentation and first Year-to-Date Report from the Community Improvement Division of the Community Development Department
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Community Improvement Division is the prevention, detection, investigation, and enforcement of violations of statutes or ordinances regulating public safety, public works, business activities, building standards, land-use, and municipal affairs to preserve the high quality of life expected by Lodi residents.
Community Improvement Officers work in close association with the Lodi Police Department, Planning, Building, and Public Works Departments, and other local agencies to maintain high community standards and address violations of the Lodi Municipal Code. Through enforcement of these ordinances and with community awareness and involvement, Lodi will continue to be a place everyone feels proud to call home.
Community Improvement’s Goal
Community Improvement believes that each resident of Lodi deserves to live in a safe, peaceful, and attractive environment. The City of Lodi has established specific ordinances which promotes the elimination of blight and aids in the abatement of nuisance conditions. Improving the community starts by educating tenants, property owners, and property managers about the Lodi Municipal Code. Although Community Improvement Officers are able to issue citations and apply other legal remedies, the main goal of the department is To Gain Compliance through Education.
Community Improvement Introduction
Community Improvement is comprise d of three Community Improvement Officers ; Officer Ken Aiello, Officer James Zoren, and Officer Jonique Andrews. The three officers investigate and enforce violations of the Lodi Municipal Code on private property and specified public properties. The violations include, but are not limited to; accumulation of debris, inoperable vehicles, substandard housing, dangerous buildings, roll-away and portable waste collection containers placement, private property vendor violations, building without a permit, and several
other violations that occur on private property. If the officers observe a violation that is not in their purview, they will inform the appropriate party (Public Works, Partners, Electric Utilities, Police, or Building).
Monthly Case Load
Community Improvement Officers produce a monthly report which provides information regarding newly opened cases, all cases addressed during the month, a running total of proactive based cases, and tracks the Voluntary Compliance percentage. Voluntary Compliance is defined as compliance before a monetary fine is issued. (Please see Exhibit A for the 2023 Year to Date Report.) In 2022, the officers investigated 1027 violations of the Lodi Municipal Code. The 2022 cases where closed with a 94% voluntary compliance rate. In the first seven months of 2023, the officers investigated 739 violations of the Lodi Municipal Code. So far, the 2023 cases have been closed with a 93% voluntary compliance rate.
Opening Cases
The Community Improvement Officers operate within of their assigned zones. (Please see Exhibit B for Officers assigned zones.) The officers rotate assigned zones once a year. Cases are opened and investigated for two different reasons; complaint based and proactive based.
Complaint Based :
Complaint based cases can initiated by citizens of Lodi and Departments thorough out the City.
Complaints can be submitted by e-mail, voicemail, Complaint Form, or in-person. On average, 90% of cases are resolved by educating citizens about Lodi Municipal Codes. While investigating the complaint, the officers will check the nearby area for violations.
Proactive Based :
Proactive based cases are initiated by the Community Improvement Office r throughout the major thoroughfare streets of Lodi. Major thoroughfare streets include Tu rner Road, Vine Street, Kettleman Lane, Mills Avenue, Church Street, Cherokee Lane, and 12 other streets in the City. (Please see Exhibit C for proactive streets.) On those streets, the officers address violations that cause blight throughout Lodi. Ninety-seven percent of proactive cases are resolved without issuing a citation. When appropriate, the officers will forward violations to Public Works and the Police Department.
Enforcement Tools
Community Improvement Officers employ several tools in order to achieve corrections for a Lodi Municipal Code violation. Here are the five most common tools that the officers employ.
Courtesy Notices:
For Proactive Based enforcement, the first step in correcting a violation is issuing a Courtesy Notice. It can also be issued as a first step for complaint-based enforcement. A Courtesy Notice is an educational notice that informs the citizen of Lodi Munic ipal Codes. There are no fines or fees associated with a Courtesy Notice. Violations are given 15 days to be corrected.
Notice of Violations:
Notice of Violations (NOVs) are typically issued as the first step for complaint-based enforcement.
NOVs inform the property owners of the fee schedule and other potential enforcement actions that will be imposed if the violations are not corrected. There are no fines or fees associated with a NOV.
Violations are given 15 days to be cor rected. Correction time frames can be shortened if a life-safety violation exist.
Administrative Citations:
Administrative Citations are monetary fines and fees that are used to compel compliance for a Lodi Municipal Code violation. Citations are not issued if property owners are taking actions to correct the violation. The first citation is $100. The second citation is $250. The third and subsequent citations are $500. The first citation is accompanied by a $100 non -compliance fee. The second and subsequent citations are accompanied by a $300 non-compliance fee. After a citation is issued, violations are given 15 days to be corrected.
Recording on Title of Property:
If corrections are not made when the second citation is issued, Officers have the ability to cloud the title of a property by recording the NOV with the San Joaquin County Recorder’s Office. The clouds will be released when the violations have been corrected and all fines and fees have been paid.
Legal Remedies:
When property owners are unable or unwilling to correct the violations, Community Improvement Officers seek advice from the Chief Building Official, the Community Development Director, and the City Attorney on what options the City may take. These options include: inspection warrants, orders to abate, receiverships, injunctions, and other legal remedies.
STRATEGIC PRIORITY ADDRESSED: No strategic significance.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.
