BACKGROUND
A. Projects Description
This application is for the division of approximately 12:7 acres into
88 lots. The site is located west of Espola Road and south. of Del
Poniente Road.
In October of 1983j, Mr. J. L. Roberts P President. of Green Valley
Ridge, Inc., submitted a tentative map (TTM 83-05) for a 91 unit
subdivision for this same property. The project was later
withdrawn
In March of 1985, Mr. J. L. Roberts resubmitted a tentative map
application(TTM 815-021 for 91 lots. Following Staff's completion
of an Initial Study, a public hearing was conducted. by the City
n the ro ect .
Council an May 28, 1985 to obtain public comment. o p 1
The City Council determined that a focused EIR should be prepared
addressing potential impacts related to soils and geology,
hydrology and. water _quality, biology, traffic circulation, and
archaeology:
Tentative Tract Map 85-02 is composed of 88 lots ranging in size t
from 1 to 18 acres. The subject site is characterized by rolling r
terrain with several prominent knolls. Two drainage courses with
riparian vegetation traverse the east and central sections of the
project. The design of the subdivision is based on a lot averaging
method.. This method was used to preserve several significant t
biological. and archaeological sites.. The lots have been located on
the less environmentally sensitive portions of the project.'
As prescribed by the Zoning Development Code., the number of lots
was derived by designing a conventional subdivision utilizing the
slope criteria: for the RR. -C zone.. The open space areas were deter-
mined and the 88 lots were sited on the site Eighty-six of the 88
lots are one acre in size. l
Lot 88,,located west of Midland Road, is 18 acres in size and
contains a large open space easement which will preserve a drainage
k courser the associated riparian vegetation, and an archaeological
site. Lot 36 is also over one acre:. This two -acre lot contains
open space, sewer., equestrian easements.
Surrounding properties are designated. for singlefamil.y residences
on. lots approximately one-half: acre or greater in size. The proj-
ect site is bordered by RR -C and RS -2 to the north, RS -2 to the
east:, OS iTwin Peak Elementary School.) and RS -2 to the south, and
RR -A and RR -B to the: west,

B Development Facilities
The project is divided into three units. Unit 1 is located in the
northeast corner of the project and consists of 32 lots. Unit 2 is
located south and adjacent to Unit -1, and contains 38 lots. Located
within the westerly 40acres is Unit 3, comprised of 1 lots.
Access to the property will occur from Del Poniente Road.. An addi.-
tional'access point could occur if Midland Road is extended south to
interconnect with the existing developed portion of the road. The
internal circulation is based on two cul-de-saced streets and a. cross
lateral road which interconnects the two streets. Midland Road, a
cul-de-saced street, shall be dedicated to a 60 foot width and
improved with 46 feet of paving, concrete curb, gutter, and sidewalk.
The remaining interior roads: shall be improved to 36 feet wide and
shall include concrete curb and gutter.. Althoughthis project abuts
the. west side of the North County Estates subdivision and three
separate roads. (Hat Creek:, Old. Station, and Fiddletown) none of the
roads will interconnect with the interior roads proposed in this sub-
division..
Grading for the project shall be limited to that which is necessary
Ile for building pad, streets, driveways, and utility improvements.,
`. Drainage for,the project will be directed either into the: street or
toward the drainage channels --depending upon pad locations Street
drainage will be directed southeast to the storm drain system located
under Fiddletown Road.
A public water and. sewer system shall be designed. and constructed by
t
the developer to serve all lots within. the subdivision..
t
Pursuant to the City's Master Plan of Trails, a. number of community
trails will traverse the property. The trail from North County
Estates shall be extended north along the project's east property line {
f
to Del Poniente Road. The trail will then follow along the south. side {
of Del Poniente Road west to Midland Road, where it will turn south
and follow along the east side of Midland Road. The fourth trail f
segment will bisect the Del Poniente Road trail and traverse the: east
side of the creek (between Lots 19 and. 20)
The project. will be served by the City fire and police. Utilities
will be provided by the respective utility companies (.Pacific Bell
and San. Diego Gas and. Electric) Educational services: will be
provided. by the: Poway Unified School District

C. Environmental Review
The Planning Services staff completed an Initial Study of potential
environmental impacts which could occur as a result of the proposed
project. On May 28, 1985, the City Council conducted a public
hearing to obtain public comment on the project. The Council.,_
following the hearing, determined that a.focused EIR addressing
potential impacts in the areas of soils and geology, hydrology and
water quality, biology, archaeology, and traffic circulation should
be prepared. Pursuant to. Council's determination a Notice of
a.
Preparation was prepared and:sent to responsible; agencies, several
of which responded. to the City on the scope and content of the
DEIR. The. environmental consultant.firm of Environmental
Perspectives was hired through the City's selection: process to
complete the Draft EIR.,
Following a "screen check" review by Staff, the Draft EIR was
completed and distributed to a number of responsible agencies for
review and comments during the 30 day public review period.
Following the public review period, the C'i.ty, was in receipt of com-
ments from only the San Diego County Archaeological Society, Inc.
The City's . environmental consultant has prepared a. response. to the.
Soc.ety'' s comments . At the time this report was prepared, the.
z
Society was silent to the subject response (see Attachments 6
and 7).,
The Draft EIR, Page 62, provides a summary of the unavoidable,
adverse impacts which would -result if the project is implemented.
These impacts include:
x
the incremental` increase in traffic generation of 880 trips per
day;
the destruction or loss of existing archaeological resource
located within the boundaries of the project; and
the loss of significant biological resources including riparian
woodland and -cons al scrub habitats, and several sensitive
plant and animal species such as the Black Tailed. Gna.tcatcher
and the San Diego Sagewort.
Future residents of the site will. be exposed to potential seismic -
related hazards as a result of project development. Grading of the
site and future development will also cause a minor increase in.
surface: run-off and potential degradation to groundwater in the
area.

x The document's summaryalso
suggests specific mitigation measures
for impacts which could occur as a result of the project.
The -document states, most of the identified impacts can be reduced
to a level of insignificance thrauarhthem Mn l =TnAni-=+4e%n ,¢ +h®
the impacts to the significant biological and archaeological
resources found on the project site can be avoided by a redesign of
the projec:t..
The significant biological and archaeological resources found are
primarily located within the two riparian corridors situated at the
westerly and central portions of the project site.. Suggested miti.-
gation measures within the Draft EIR would require that the subject
corridors be maintained in their natural state. The redesigned
project would place a minimum 100 foot wide corridorof undisturbed
-
riparian habitat in the central portionof the project within n an
open space: easement.. In addition, the westerly riparian area and
all the land between Midland Road, and the western project boundary`
(approximately -18 acres in area) would be maintained in natural
open space, with the exception of a proposed building site in the
northerly portion of the 18 acre area. Staff is recommending that
the: applicant's proposed building site area: be reduced: in size, soi
as: not.. to encompass the wes ern riparian corridor which contains: a
significant drainage feature. The proposed building site: is con-
figured.
on -figured in such a manner that any potential, impact on the. ad 3`acent
significant archaeological site is' avoided.;
It is. the, opinion of Staff that the project redesign and resultant
open space easements would adequately mitigate; the subject impacts
to, a. level of insignificance. A detailed discussion of thiss spe-
cific mitigation is found on. Page 36 of the document.,

Staff are containedrin the attached resolution.
U. Correspondence
Public notices: regarding consideration of this project were sent to
all property owners within 500` feet of its boundaries, and notice
was advertised in the Poway News Chieftain.. One letter of opposi-
tion was received and. is Attachment 8. One written comment was
- received from the San Diego County Archaeological. Society, Inc. in:
response to the archaeological survey in the Draft EIR..

X.1 SUMMARY
A. Unavoidable a idable Adverse impacts
The eventual conversion of undeveloped land to urban. uses
will result in curtain adverse effects which cannot be avoid-
x
ed. The unavoidable impacts which, will occur as a result of
the implementation of the proposed residential development
includes
1. Incremental increase in traffic generation and distribu-
tion inthe project area and City-wide.
r
2." The destruction/loss of existing archaeological resour-
ces which are located within the project boundaries.
3. The loss of open space and., more importantly, the loss
r,
of significant biological resources, including riparian
woodland and coastal sage scrub habitats, and several sensi-
tive plant and animal species. -
:'
4. The project site and future residents will be exposed to
potential seismic and seismic -related hazards, including
i
earthquakes, settlement:, and subsurface instability.,
5.. Grading of the site. and future development will cause a
�
minor increase in surface runoff n
a d potential degradation
to the.: groundwater in the area.
B. Significant Environmental Impacts
The only impacts whish have been: determined to be signifi-
cant include those which will occur to the biological
resources. Other impacts: described in this document are
3
either not significant or can be reduced:- to a level of insig-
nificance if appropriate mitigation measures are iin lemen-
p
t ed s
Without redesigning the project as proposed in Section. IV..0
i
(Mitigation Measures), project implementation will result in
substantial alteration and/or, loss: of both the: riparian
woodland and coastal. sage scrub communities on site which
ort several sensitive s
su c'
pp pe ies of plants and wildlife:.
The most significant loss will be the loss of the Black.-
tailed Gnatcatcher habitat and ultimate potential loss of
the five to eight, pairs which were observed inhabiting the
property.
C. Mitigation, Measure
Several mitigation - measures will be required and' others are
;
recommended; to eliminate the adverse environmental conse-

quences resulting from project. implementation. These mea-
sures are summarized 'below.
1. Traffic. and Circulation
o Midland, Road must be extended from Del Poniente Road.
south through the: property and improved to collector
street standard
o The southerly half section of Del Poniente Road must
be improved along the northern property boundary.
o Internal circulation shall be reviewed by -the City"s
E
Traffic Engineer to ensure that sight, distances:,
'
street grades, and four-way intersections are: ade.-
quate.
o Regional. trail kinks identified in the City's Trails
Element should be included in final site design.
o Lots 85 and 91 should include forward facing exit
driveways, or accessvia private drive extensions be-
tween lots. 89 and 90 .and lots 80 and 84
o Stopsigns should control traffic on. Midland Road and
Fiddletown Road at Del_ Poniente Road:' and: on Fidd.letown:
Road at Tierra Bonita Road.
2.. Archaeological_ Resources
o Each of the, -archaeological sites/resources noted in
this document, shall be mapped, measured, and photo-
graphed.
o Auger samples shall be taken at th.e following sites* _
SM -W-23.95, and:* Locations 2, 4, 5r 6, and: 8. Further
mitigat.i.on will be, recommended.t if necessary, after
testing.
o Middens shall be tested with hand excavation units to
determine: if: subsurface resources exist. In addition
further mitigation. will be recommended, if necessary
after testing.
o SDM-W-214 shall be transit located and mapped. Sub-
surface testing shall also be conducted with hand
excavation units-, which could result. - if: additional'
mit,igation...7 if significant resources are: found.

truction and elimination of the: sensitive Black -tailed Gnat -
ca -cher.: it will be necessary to preserve approximately 40'
acres of the coastal sage scrub habitat: as well as a 200 -
foot. zone on either side of the westerly creek centerline.
In, addition, other measures such as fencing off the: open
eas enhancin habitat quality, prohibiting activ-
space ar , 9
ties that are disruptive to wildlife or degrade habitat: and
controlling non-native predators would also be required.
t.
Without redesigning the projecas describedr the City must
make the apgro.priate: f indings� of overriding consideration in
orde=r tok approve the project.
Other mitigation measures that are recommended to reduce. the
� `
impacts to other sensitive (although not sign-ificant,) spe-cies,
include
o Reduce all. ;habitat losses by minimizing grading
o Do. not grade during the breeding season (generally
>r�
hate; March through June.
o Grade in phases; to minimize impacts to wildlife.
o Avoid grading areas it which sensitive plant species
are located.
o Preserve the large granite rock outcroppings.
o Revegetate all cut: anal:, fill slopes exposed by grading
with. native specie immediately.:
o Establish an, off-sitpreserve for the Black -tailed
e.
Gnatca.tcher.. This will require the- cooperation of the
Ci.tyr County, and: other public, and private entities.
4. Soils and Geology
Additional geotechni-cal studies will be. necessary to deter-
mine, the specific design criteria for earthwork, foundations
and other, consideration. The following measures are recom-
_ mended.
o Remove:: all compressible material and replace it. with
properly compacted fill.
o Cap lots with expansive: soils exposed at finished pad
elevations should be capped With selectively -graded
granular material.
o Proposed graded' slopes should be: analyzed to evaluate

51. Hydrology and Water Quality-
The existing drainage facilities in the surrounding area. and
those: proposed tol collect water on-site appear to be ade-
quate and, in. some cases;, oversized. However, the: applicant
r
will be required to identify the means by, which surface
flows can be reduced to a level which does not exceed dis
charges occurring in. its presently undeveloped state so that
downstream properties are not adversely affected.
D.- Non -Significant Impacts
i
Non-s-ig nificant impacts which will occur as a result of
project implementation as well as those which will be re-
I
duced to insignificant levels through mitigation include:
1. The: addition of 910 daily vehicular trips and the resul-
E
tant increases in noise and air emissions.

2. The loss, of archaeological resources located on the
subject. property.
3.: Impacta to, non -sensitive: biological resources.:
4. Exposure of new construction and future residents to
potential seismic activity.
5. Minor increases in surface: runoff caused by grading and:
construction of the 91 homes.
Other impacts which will occur, but which have been deter-
mined to be7 insignificant by the. City during the initial
study include those, to air quality and noise, energy re-
sources, public facilities and services, housing and land

Green Valley Ridge (TT 85-02)
Dear Mr. Nesselo
On behalf of this committee of the San Diego County Archaeological
Society,; I have. reviewed the subject.DEIR and its cultural resources
appendix.
Regarding potential direct impacts to cultural resources, the DEIR
calls for a series of additional tests to -identify the nature of the resources:
present so that mitigation.measures can be finalized. This is acceptable,,
asfar as it goes but, since the results of the tests are not now known, we
cannot judge whether the impacts willultimately be properly mitigated. In
order to resolve this matter,,, we would request the opportunity to, review

s 1. Regarding potential. direct impacts to cultural re t
sources, the DEhR calls for a series of additional tests to
identify the nature of the resources present so that mit- k
gat -ion, measures can be finalized. This is acceptable, as
far as it goes: but, since the results of the tests are not
now known, we cannot judge whether the impacts will ul.t
mately be properly mitigated'. In order to resolve this r
matter, we would request the opportunity to review the gest
report and comment on the proposed mitigation.,
j
The series: of additional tests identified in the Draft EIR
Will be undertaken by a qualified archaeologist prior to
recordation of the final tract map. The archaeologist re-
tained`to implement the proposed testing, program shall meet
with representatives of the San, Diego County Archaeological
Society: Inc., prior to undertaking the testing program, for
the purpose- of establishing the testing methodology and
basis upon which further mitigation will be necessary. Upon
completion of the program., test. results and mitigation recom-
mendations, if determined,necessaryr shall, be made available
to the Society for review and comment to, ensure that miti-
gaton measures are satisfactory. However, this review, and
comment process: should not unnecessarily delay approval: of
the: final tract map_'
2. Indirect impacts of the proposed project are not ade-
quately addressed. The potential for such impacts may
exist, at least to locus 9, indicated: in th� report, as being
located off the property. If this, or any other cultural
resources, is located close enough'. to the project area .to be
impacted by grading, utility lines, equipme:rit staging; areas
or other, construction activities,mitigation measures must
be: provided.. Temporary or permanent fencing near sensitive
areas is one possible mitigative action possible.:
The project sponsor will be. required to redesign the ten-
tative tract, map to reduce significant impacts to biological
resources. As a result, the area west of. Midland Roam. will
be preserved an its natural,s ate.
Locus. .9, approximately
70 meters (23G feet) southwest of locus 7 and: situated off
the property will not be affected by the development when
redesigned.. Neither that site nor others in.. the project
environs will be adversely affected by grading or other
project -related activities and no direct or indirect impacts
