body
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
CSCDA is a joint powers authority sponsored by the League of California Cities and the California State Association of Counties. Over 500 cities, counties and special districts throughout California are members of CSCDA.
The Statewide Community Infrastructure Program (SCIP) was instituted by CSCDA in 2002 to allow owners of property in participating cities and counties to finance the development related fees that would be payable by property owners upon receiving development entitlements or building permits through a pooled special assessment districts program and later expanded to include financing of public capital improvements constructed by developers and public services necessary to support development in the participating agency.
Since its inception, SCIP has issued over $1 billion in land secured special assessment and CFD bonds for development projects in California. The City of Lodi joined SCIP in 2018 as authorized by Resolution No. 2018-111.
At the public hearing, the City Council will consider modifications to its SCIP participation to modernize the governing documents; staff therefore requests that the City Council set a hearing for March 4, 2026 to repeal and replace Resolution No. 2018-111.
