GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT/ZONE CHANGE B9-04A
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox, This item is for consideration of an
application from Dr, Robert Rheinhardt and Dr. Frank Patonai for the redesigna-
tion of approximately, 14.27 acres of land zoned Rural Residential-C to
Residential Senior Citizen, located on the west side of Pomerado Road imme-
diately south of St. Mi chael' s Church and opposite Roberto Way, The proposed
redesignation would provide approximately 11 acres for senior housing and 4
acres for a neighborhood park. This request would be subject to approval by the
voters under the provisions of Proposition FF (Ordinance 2B3). After on-site
inspection and initial study, staff has concluded that the proposed General Plan
amendment and zone change coul d result in potenti a I signi fi cant envi ronmenta 1
impacts and that the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report is required.
Staff recommends to deny application without prejudice in order to provide time
for the preparation of the EIR.
Speaking in favor of staff recommendation:
Bob Rheinhardt, 13362 Poway Road

RECESS AND CALL TO ORDER
Mayor Kruse recessed the meeting at B:21 p.m" and called it back to order at
B:29 p,m" with all Councilmembers present,
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT/ZONE CHANGE B9-04B
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox, This item is for consideration of an
application from Mr. Douglas Keyes for the redesignation of land use and zoning
of 16,29 acres of undeveloped land located on the northeast corner of Pomerado
Road and Metate Lane from Residential Single Fam11y 1 to Residential Senior
Citizen, The request was previously reviewed by the City Council on May lB,
19B9, as Pre-General ~lan Amendment B9-03G. At that time, Counc11 concurred
with the suggestion that the easterly portion of the property be developed with
single-story senior housing and the westerly portion be a neighborhood park.
Currently, there are no large City parks on south Pomerado Road, Recent analy-
sis of senior citizen housing needs indicates a shortfall, especially in affor-
dable, independent living units. Staff has conducted a site inspection and
initial study and concludes that the proposed General Plan amendment and zone
change could result in potential significant environmental impacts and that the
preparation of an Environmental Impact Report is required. Staff recommends to
deny application without prejudice in order to provide time for the preparation
of the EIR.
Speaking in opposition to staff recommendation:
Roger Souders, 1272B Pomerado Road
Council concurred the project could be a good use for the site, and requested
neighborhood input be obtained before preparation and circulation of the draft
environmental review.
Motion by Councilmember Emery, seconded by Councilmember Goldsmith, to take ten-
tative action to deny General Plan Amendment/Zone Change B9-04B without preju-
dice, and to direct staff to postpone initiating the environmental review
process unt11 neighborhood meetings have been held. Motion carried unani-
mously.
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT/ZONE CHANGE B9-04C

Road and Icarus Lane, The site consists of seven separate parcels, six of which
are developed wi th si ngl e-famlly homes that access Icarus Lane, Due to the
impacts of the property's close proximi ty to State Route 56 and Twi n Peaks
Plaza, the desirability for single family uses has been reduced. Following on-
site investigation and initial study, staff has determined that the proposed
General Plan amendment and zone change could result in potential significant
environmental impacts and that the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report
is required. Staff recommends to deny the application without prejudice in
order to provide time for the preparation of an EIR.
Speaking in opposition to staff recommendation:
James Lyons, 12223 Colony Drive

sideration of an amendment to the land use element of the Comprehensive Plan

site would be integrated into the site plan for the adjacent condominium project
proposed by the Nexus Development Corporation. The property would be used for
an access road connecting the project with Carriage Road. The access road for
the original condominum project site plan was located approximately 130 feet
north of Poway Road, which posed numerous constraints to traffic circulation due
to its close proximity to a major roadway. Staff recommends approval.

that the zone change on this parcel could allow two additional units to
the proposed condominium project, He requested Council consider 74
units under the development review scheduled as Item B.

GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT B9-04F
Staff report by Ci ty Manager Bowersox. Thi s City-i nitiated item is for con-
sideration of an amendment to the Land Use Element of the General Plan regarding
the excl usion of churches and other religi ous institutions from cri teria that
limits the development of public and semi-public uses to slopes of ten percent
or less. The proposed amendment would create the opportunity for development of
churches on steep slopes and rugged terrain. In order to prevent projects
incompatible with surrounding land uses, each would be evaluated under the cri-
teria established by companion General Plan Amendment B9-04D. Approval of this
amendment could potentially intensify the use in the rural residential areas,
therefore, it would be subject to a vote of the people under the provisions of
Proposition FF (Ordinance 2B3). There is a proposed revision to the resolution
clarifying language relating to Proposition FF. Staff recommends approval,
There was no one present wishing to speak.
Motion by Counc11member Goldsmith, seconded by Counc11member Brannon, to take
tentative action to issue a Negative Declaration, and approve General Plan
Amendment B9-04F. Motion carried unanimously.

GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT B9-04G
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox, This item is for consideration of a
City-initiated amendment to the Circulation Plan of the Circulation Element of
the General Plan to delete Gate Drive/Midland Road (Link 35) as a two-lane
"Collector Arterial" roadway from a point south of Poway Road to South Poway
Parkway, At the August 2, 19BB meeting, the residents of the Los Lomas area
asked the Counc11 to consider alternative alignments that would reduce the
impacts to their subdivision that would be created by the construction of the
southerly extension of Midland Road to South poway Parkway. On July 11, 19B9,
the City Council directed staff to initiate the necessary proceedings to delete
the subject road from the General Plan, The traffic stUdy prepared to address
the proposed deletion found that adequate planned local and regional access into
the Pomerado Business Park via Poway Road would remain if the proposed amendment
is approved. Staff recommends leaving Gate Drive as a cul-de-sac and not
extending Midland Road south into the Pomerado Business park.
Speaking in opposition to staff recommendation:

Management Element to the General Plan, The Element incorporates the proposed
San Diego County Hazardous Waste Management Plan which was approved by the City
Council at the July 11, 19B9 meeting. Adoption of this plan would ensure that
the City had legally binding criteria by which any application for a hazardous
waste facility can be evaluated. Staff recommends that the Council certify that
the envi ronmenta I impact report prepared for the San Di ego County Hazardous
Waste Management Plan adequately and completely discusses the potential environ-
mental impacts and adopt the Hazardous Waste Management of the General Plan.

Mayor Kruse opened the public hearing. Staff report by City Manager Bowersox.
This is a request for approval ofa 74 unit condominium project on an 11.5 acre
site located on the northeast corner of Poway and Carriage Roads. In Apr11
19B7, a proposal for an B2 unit apartment project was denied by the Council
based on concerns related to soil stab11ity and traffic safety. An updated
geotechnical report was prepared and concluded that there were no geotechnical
conditions which would predlude development or endanger adjacent properties pro-
vided that remedial grading, and removal and recompacton of unstable f111 be
performed. Subsequently, porti ons of the property were rezoned pI aci ng the
upper interior slopes and graded pad area in the open space zone and the
remaining six acres were zoned as residential condominium. The proposed project
consists of 15 buildings with 4 to 6 units each with recreational facilities
including a pool, recreation room, picnic areas, and tot lots. The portion of
the site which is zoned open space will be regraded and landscaped. The project
w111 take access from two points, one on Poway Road and one on Carriage Road.

eastbound traffic, but preclude left turns onto poway Road. A raised median
will be constructed on Carriage Road up to the project's boundary at Robi son

Condominiums requested a crosswalk be striped on Community Road south of

ITEM 14
STATUS REPORT OF SEWER CAPACITY
Staff report by Ci ty Manager Bowersox. On November 15, 1988, the Counci I
adopted Ordinance No. 281 which established new categories for sewer allocation
and designated the amount of sewer capacity to be remaining in each category.
As of July 21, 1989, the following is the remaining capacity in each category:
I} Residential, Public, Semi-Public, 148; 2} Commercial, 296; 3} Industrial,
833; 4) Failing Septic Systems, 15; 5} Reserve, 129; for a total EDU remaining
of 1,421. Staff recommends continuing to allocate sewer capacity on a first-
come, first-serve basis and that Council direct staff to investigate the use of
a flow equalization basin as a means of temporarily increasing sewage capacity
until our reclamation facility or additional pipelines are constructed.
Functioning much like a storm drainage retention basin, wastewater is stored in
a tank duri ng peak flow peri ods and di scharged into the sewer at low flow
periods. It would take two years to plan, design, and construct.
Councll expressed concern regarding spending time on another project when the
water reclamation project needs full attention to keep it on track; and allowing
flows to increase and levelling them out through a "stopgap" measure.
Moti on by Councllmember Brannon, seconded by Councllmember Emery, to di rect
staff to continue to allocate sewer capaCity on a first-come, first serve basis,
and to agressively pursue the completion of the City's Waste Water Reclamation
Treatment Facility.

and encouraged parking on Sycamore Avenue. The architect for Old Poway Park and
staff have met wi th the resi dents and recommend a revi sed I andscapi ng pI an
including a lodge pole rail fence on the park side of Sycamore Avenue buffered

Speaking in favor of staff recommendation:
