training, mare care, lay-ups, lessons, sales and boarding on a 15 acre site at
13980 Millards Ranch Lane. Staff is recommending approval for 80 horses and

inconsiderate behavior of some of the riders when they cross neighboring private
property. They stated Mr. Steiner's operation at approximately 40 horses was
tolerable to the neighborhood.
Councilmember Cafagna stated that Mr. Steiner ignored his neighbors concerns as
he enlarged his operation and they finally said he had "gone too far". He asked
how Mr. Steiner establishes legal access to the road. City Attorney Eckis stated
Mr. Steiner and his neighbors are currently in 1 itigation and that will be
determined as part of the litigation.
In response to Mr. Steiner's request for changes in the Resolution, Director of
Planning Services Wright-Quastler stated she would recommend the traffic
mitigation fees be paid in 30 days, the substandard housing be eliminated by
March 13, 1995, changing the existing bathroom to handicapped access meets State
requirements, the well only has to be properly abandoned if there will be corrals
on top of it, and the other dates can be changed as requested.

a maximum of 43 students on 4.35 acres located at 12811 Welton Lane, and a

Staff recommends approval.
There was no one present wishing to speak.
Motion by Councilmember Cafagna, seconded by Councilmember Callery to close the
public hearing, issue a Mitigated Negative Declaration, and adopt Planning
Resolution No. P-94-58 entitled, "a Resolution of the City Council of the City
of Poway, California, Approving Conditional Use Permit 94-15 and Variance 94-05,
Assessor's Parcel Number 323-280-18." Motion carried 4-0 with Councilmember
Snesko absent.
ITEM 13
(1402-02)
POWAY LIBRARY AND SHERIFF SUBSTATION
Mayor Higginson stated this item would be taken out of order. Staff report by
City Manager 80wersox. Sta ff is recommendi ng the City Counci 1 revi ew the proposed
site plan and approve the concept of locating the Sheriff substation on the
former Western Lumber site along with the library and authorize staff to proceed
with the design of a 15,000 square foot substation which the County would lease.
Architect Richard Cardwell showed a proposed site plan with the front door of the
-- 1 i brary faci ng Poway Road and the Sheriff Substat i on on the rear of the property.
Speaking in opposition to staff recommendation
Howard Stacklin, 13149 Tobiasson Road
Kathy Shawl, 13239 Ann-o-Reno Lane
Susan Sheldon, 13411 Starridge Street
Larry Cruse, 13734 Utop i a
Jerry Hargarten, 13622 Orchard Gate Road
Alison Farrin, 15134 Oak Canyon Road
Joye Davisson, 13733 Celestial Road
Speakers questioned whether the Sheriff is a compatible use with the library;
whether there would be room for library expansion on the site; why the library
would have to be on the back of the site if something other than the Sheriff
shared the site; and why we aren't focusing on getting the library constructed
rather than the Sheriff's facility.
Assistant City Manager Fitch stated the City Council has previously approved
placing the library on the rear of this site. The Library Advisory and Poway
Road Specific Plan Committees have recommended it be placed on Poway Road. The
City Council would have to authorize that change which is why this item is being
brought forward. Any commercial use would want the Poway Road frontage rather
than the rear, which is why the Sheriff's substation is a good match.
Council discussed the issue of whether the Sheriff is a compatible use and where
the library should go on the site, and concurred this issue should be continued
5361
JAN 3 1995 IT¡:;W 16
Page 7 - CITY OF POWAY - November 29, 1994
in order to have a full Council present. Staff was directed to place this on the

financially if the library goes on Poway Road, and what other sites have been
looked at for the Sheriff's facility.
