A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
POWAY, CALIFORNIA ADOPTING A MITIGATED
NEGATIVE DECLARATION FOR MINOR DEVELOPMENT
REVIEW APPLICATION 14-036 ASSESSOR'S PARCEL
NUMBER: 275-712-10
WHEREAS, the City Council considered Minor Development Review Application
(MDRA) 14-036, a request to construct a 1,574 square -foot addition to an existing
residence at 16290 Rostrata Hill Road within the Rural Residential C (RR -C) zone,
convert a detached garage/workshop to a 988 square -foot guest house, and construct a
new attached 833 square -foot garage and workout room; and
WHEREAS, on July 18, 2017, the City Council held a duly advertised public
meeting to receive testimony from the public, both for and against, relative to this matter.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Poway
as follows:
Section 1: In accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) an Environmental Initial Study (EIS) and a proposed Mitigated
Negative Declaration (MND), attached as Exhibit A, have been prepared for
MDRA 14-036. The City Council has considered the EIS, MND and associated Mitigation
Monitoring Program, and public comments received on the EIS and MND. The subject
EIS and MND documentation are fully incorporated herein by this reference. The City
Council finds, on the basis of the whole record before it, that there is no substantial
evidence the project will have a significant impact on the environment, that the mitigation
measures contained in the EIS included as Attachment 1 of the attached Exhibit A hereof
will mitigate potentially significant impacts to a less than significant level, and that the
MND reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the City. The City Council hereby
adopts the MND and the associated Mitigation Monitoring Program attached to this
Resolution as Attachment 2 of Exhibit A.
Section 2: A Cultural Resources Survey report, dated August 5, 2015 was
prepared by Meridian Archaeological Services & Research (MAS&R) on the property and
for the proposal. Significance testing was performed in the area of the proposed
development. MAS&R did not classify the rock outcroppings used for a milling station as
significant under CEQA. A potential does exist that prior disturbances within the project
area located just south of the rock outcroppings might mask archaeological deposits
particularly in light of the property being in the vicinity of the Green Valley Creek, and the
number of archaeological sites within one mile radius. Therefore, MAS&R recommends
that a cultural monitoring program be implemented by a qualified archaeologist and a
Native American Monitor during any type of soil removal from the Area of Potential Effect.
