BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
A dedicated training facility is necessary to provide expanded capability for training and certifying staff in the various skills needed for police service on a long-term basis. These skills include long-range shooting (up to 300 yards), bomb disposal, and high performance driving. Since the existing range is limited to short-range pistol shooting only, the City of Lodi Police Department must utilize other agencies' facilities to practice these other skills. The proposed location of the training facility is at White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility (WSWPCF). Due to funding constraints, the facility must be constructed in phases.
The first phase of this project includes the work associated with establishing ten - 300 yard shooting positions including the construction of a target berm, protective shielding walls, graded parking area, site fencing and other ancillary grading and drainage improvements. The improvements included in Phase 1 (aside from portions of the perimeter fencing) have been designed to integrate into future phases and will remain part of ultimate facility.
Plans and specifications for this project were approved on August 6, 2025. The City received seven bids for the project on September 25, 2025:
