Lodi Improvement Committee - May 12, 2026

The Lodi Improvement Committee (LIC) meets May 12, 2026 at the Carnegie Forum for a focused working session centered on three priorities: shaping the LIC's upcoming semi-annual update to the City Council, reviewing Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) activity including the new 2026–27 Annual Action Plan public review window, and advancing the 2026 annual activities task roster. Public participation is available in person, via Zoom (Meeting ID 880 2451 7154, passcode 191272), by email to LICcomments@lodi.gov, or by mail/hand delivery to the Community Development Department.

This meeting follows an eventful April session where the Committee voted unanimously to recommend the City Council halt ticketing of on-duty downtown employees and build an employee permit system — a recommendation now in the staff pipeline to Council. Staff's memo confirms HUD's 2026–27 CDBG allocation has increased to $665,236 (up from $655,037 in 2025–26), with the draft Action Plan posted for public review May 2 through June 3, 2026.
