A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
POWAY, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT (CUP) 18-004, AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW (DR)
16-014 ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NUMBER 317-540-15 and -16
WHEREAS, Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 18-004 and Development Review (DR) 16-014
were submitted by Apro, LLC., Applicant/ ARCP UO Portfolio II, LP., Owner, to expand an existing
gas station and add a car wash located at 12462 Poway Road in the Planned Community-8 (PC-
8) zone and the Poway Road Specific Plan (PRSP) Commercial General (CG) district. The project
involves the demolition of all existing gas station and auto repair structures, the construction of a
2,400-square-foot mini-mart, a 1,000-square-foot car wash, a 4,000-square-foot fueling station
canopy, and the addition of two gas dispenser pumps; and
WHEREAS, on March 6, 2018, the City Council held a duly advertised public hearing to
solicit comments from the public, both for and against, relative to this application.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Poway as
follows:
Section 1: This project, which replaces an existing gas station, is consistent with the
PRSP. An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared to analyze the impacts of the
buildout of the PRSP, and the EIR was certified by the City Council on December 5, 2017.
Technical studies were conducted, and the project was found to be consistent with the PRSP that
was analyzed in the EIR and confirmed that no further environmental analysis is required or
permitted pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21166 and California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15163 because there are no substantial
changes to either the project or the surrounding circumstances, nor any new information, that
would allow subsequent or supplemental environmental review. The project’s potential biological
impacts are adequately addressed by and consistent with the City of Poway's Subarea Habitat
Conservation Plan (HCP), companion Implementing Agreement dated June 1996, and associated
Mitigated Negative Declaration, and further, are consistent with the analysis in the PRSP EIR.
Section 2: The undeveloped portion of the project site contains disturbed Coastal
Sage Scrub (CSS) as shown on the maps prepared for the HCP and as confirmed by City staff.
Implementation of the project will result in habitat impacts to approximately 0.43 acres of CSS.
The proposed project complies with the HCP and HCP Implementing Agreement. In accordance
with the HCP, the required findings for approval of the proposed mitigation for the removal of CSS
for the project are as follows:
A. The mitigation is consistent with, and furthers the implementing objectives of, the HCP in
that the applicant will mitigate the removal of 0.43 acres of disturbed CSS at a 1:1 ratio
through the recordation of an off-site Biological Conservation Easement (BCE) within the
Mitigation Area or the payment of an In-Lieu Fee at a rate established by the City.
B. The off-site habitat mitigation or the cash in-lieu payment to go towards the purchase of
mitigation habitat within the Mitigation Area will enhance the long-term viability and
function of the preserve system.
Resolution No. P-18-04
Page 2
C. The mitigation will be to the long-term benefit of the covered species and their habitats in
that an off-site BCE within the Mitigation Area will be recorded, or a cash In-Lieu Fee will
be paid to go towards the purchase of land that will have undisturbed habitat on which a
BCE will be recorded. Said land will promote a meaningful addition to the assembly of a
viable regional system of interconnected natural habitat resources, habitat linkages,
buffers, and wildlife corridors.
D. The mitigation shall foster the incremental implementation of the HCP in an effective and
efficient manner in that any off-site conservation area is required to be within an identified
Mitigation Area within the City.
E. The mitigation will not result in a negative fiscal impact with regard to the successful
implementation of the Poway Habitat Conservation Plan.
Section 3: The findings, in accordance with Section 17.48.070 of the Poway Municipal
Code (PMC), for CUP 18-004 to expand an existing gas station and add a car wash facility located
at 12462 Poway Road in the CG district, are made as follows:
A. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed expanded use
are in accord with the title and purpose of Chapter 17.48 PMC (Conditional Use Permits
Regulations), the General Plan, and the development policies and standards of the City in
that a gas station and car wash is allowed in the CG district with a CUP and the project
has been designed consistent with design standards and guidelines of the PRSP.
B. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use will be
compatible with and will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to adjacent uses,
people, buildings, structures, or natural resources in that the project consists of an
expansion an existing gas station in an architectural style that is compatible with existing
commercial development and the facility that will be operated similar to the existing facility.
C. The proposed use is in harmony with the scale, bulk, coverage, and density of, and is
consistent with the surrounding development, in that the project consists of expansion of
an existing gas station and addition of a car wash, and the facility has been designed to
comply with all of the development standards of the PRSP standards.
D. There are adequate public facilities, services and utilities available at the subject site to
serve the proposed use.
E. There will not be a harmful effect upon desirable neighborhood characteristics in that the
facility is located along the Poway Road commercial corridor, the architectural style is
consistent with the designs guidelines called for in the PRSP, and the operation of the
existing and proposed expanded facility will be similar. Noise generated by the car wash
will not exceed noise levels allowed by the PMC.
F. The generation of traffic will not adversely impact the capacity and physical character of
the surrounding streets and/or the Circulation Element of the General Plan in that traffic
generated by the proposed gas station expansion and new car wash is similar to the traffic
generated by the existing gas station and auto repair facility, the car wash will have
adequate on-site space for queuing, and the existing easterly driveway would be shifted
east to address the potential for conflict between the use of two new gas pumps and cars
entering and exiting the site.
Resolution No. P-18-04
Page 3
G. The site is suitable for the type and intensity of use and development in that the project
site is already developed with a gas station with auto repair service bays along a
commercial corridor. The addition of gas pumps and a car wash and elimination of the
service bays will not result in a significant increase in traffic.
H. There will not be significant harmful effects upon environmental quality and natural
resources in that habitat impacts to the site will be mitigated in accordance with the City’s
HCP and the operations of the car wash will be conducted within the City noise standards
in that the car wash will have automatic doors that close when the car wash is in use and
an 8-foot high wall will provide further noise reductions.
I. There are no relevant negative impacts of the proposed use that cannot be mitigated.
J. That the impacts, as described in subsections A through I of this Section, and the proposed
location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use and the
conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the
public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the
vicinity, nor be contrary to the adopted General Plan.
K. That the proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of
this title.
Section 4: The findings for DR 16-014, in accordance with PMC 17.52.010 Purpose
of Development Review, are made as follows:
A. The project respects and recognizes the interdependence of land values and aesthetics
to the benefit of the City in that it has been designed to be architecturally compatible and
in scale with surrounding commercial development.
B. The project has been designed to minimize impacts on surrounding development in that
the design, and exterior finishes and colors are consistent with the PRSP standards and
are compatible with the surrounding commercial buildings. Therefore, the proposed
development respects the public concerns for the aesthetics of development and
encourages the orderly and harmonious appearance of structures and property within the
City.
C. The granting of the DR would not be materially detrimental to the public health, safety, or
welfare within the community since the proposed project operations of the proposed gas
station facility will be similar to the existing facility and noise generated from the car wash
will be within noise limits established by the PMC.
D. The proposed development respects the public concerns for the aesthetics of
development in that it will incorporate architecture consistent with the PRSP.
E. The project will not have an adverse effect on the aesthetics, health, and safety, or an
architecturally-related impact upon adjoining properties, in that the proposed development
contributes to the aesthetics of the Poway Road area.
F. The design of the proposed development is consistent with all elements of the Poway
General Plan, as well as conforms to the applicable provisions of the Zoning Code and
PRSP.
Resolution No. P-18-04
Page 4
Section 5: The findings, pursuant to Government Code Section 66020 for the public
improvements, are needed as a result of the proposed development to protect the public health,
safety, and welfare are made as follows:
A. The design and improvements of the proposed development are consistent with all
elements of the Poway General Plan, as well as City Ordinances, because all necessary
facilities will be available to serve this project.
B. The construction of public improvements is needed as a result of the proposed
development to protect the public health, safety, and welfare as shown on the project
plans.
C. In accordance with the Poway General Plan, the project requires the payment of
development impact fees, which are assessed on a pro-rata basis to finance public
infrastructure improvements, which promote a safe and healthy environment for the
residents of the City.

b. Before issuance of a Clearing/Grading Permit, if grading is to occur
between February 15 and July 1, the applicant shall provide to the Planning
Division a letter from a qualified biologist retained by the applicant, with a
scope of work for a CSS habitat and Gnatcatcher Survey, and a report for
the area to be graded and CSS habitat areas within 500 feet of such area.
The biologist shall contact the USFWS to determine the appropriate survey
methodology. The purpose of the survey is to determine if any active
gnatcatcher nests are located in the area to be graded, or in CSS habitat
within 500 feet of such area. To be considered qualified, the biologist must
provide the City with a copy of a valid Gnatcatcher Recovery Permit from
the USFWS.
c. The scope of work shall explain the survey methodology for the biological

the contractors to explain and coordinate the requirements of the
monitoring program.
c. During the original cutting of previously undisturbed deposits, the
archeological monitor shall be on-site as determined by the consulting
archeologist to perform periodic inspections of the excavations. The
frequency of inspections will depend upon the rate of excavation, the
materials excavated, and the abundance of artifacts and features.
d. Isolated and clearly non-significant deposits will be minimally documented
in the field, so the monitored grading can proceed.
e. In the event that previously unidentified cultural resources are discovered,
the archeologist shall have the authority to divert or temporarily halt ground
disturbance operations in the area of discovery to allow for the evaluation

Page 9
of potentially significant cultural resources. If appropriate, a Native
American representative may be contacted to review any discovery
associated with the prehistoric occupation of this area. The archeologist
shall contact the City of Poway at the time of discovery. The archeologist,
in consultation with the City, shall determine the significance of the
discovered resources. The City must concur with the evaluation before
construction activities will be allowed to resume in the affected area. For
significant cultural resources, a Research Design and Data Recovery
Program to mitigate impacts shall be prepared by the consulting
archeologist and approved by the City before being carried out using
professional archeological methods. If any human bones are discovered,
the county coroner and lead agency shall be contacted. In the event the
remains are determined to be of Native American origin, the most likely
descendant, as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission,
shall be contacted in order to determine proper treatment and disposition
of the remains.
f. Before construction activities are allowed to resume in the affected area,
the artifacts shall be recovered, and features recorded using professional
archeological methods for an adequate artifact sample for analysis. The
archaeological monitor(s) in consultation with the City shall determine the
amount of material to be recovered for adequate artifact sample for
analysis.
g. All cultural material collected during the monitoring program shall be
processed and curated according to the current professional repository
standards. The collections and associated records shall be transferred,
