ITEM 4
ORDINANCE NO. 316 - FIRST READING
SPEED LIMIT ON LAKE POWAY ROAD
Deputy Mayor Goldsmith opened the public hearing. Staff report by Assistant
City Manager Fitch. Staff conducted a traffic survey on Lake Poway Road west of
Espola to establish a speed limit. The Traffic Safety Committee has reviewed
the data and recommends a speed limit of 35 mph. Because of existing vertical
grades and horizontal curves, a limit lower than the 85th percentile of 45 mph
is justified. Staff recommends the City Council hold first reading on this
Ordinance.

Mobilehome Park and stated the owner refuses to talk about a voluntary acquisi-
tion. He has received the updated appraisal and is ready to talk to the City
Council in closed session regarding commencing eminent domain proceedings.
In light of the public interest in this issue, Council concurred to hold a
closed session at the beginning of the April 17, 1990 City Council meeting.

CITY COUNCIL INITIATED ITEMS
20. Councilmember Brannon stated that a result of her attendance at the League's
Transportation Policy Committee meeting was her perception that the League
does not represent cities well in dealing with legislation regarding
regional issues. More layers of government are not needed, rather ways for
the state, cities and counties to work together. She suggested, and Council
concurred, that we work with the San Diego Division of the League on this
issue.
22. Deputy Mayor Goldsmith presented a policy proposed by him and Councilmember
Brannon regarding making the SANDAG representation more effective. It
requires staff input on the agenda and better coordination between the
representative and alternate. Motion by Councilmember Emery, seconded by
Councilmember Kruse to adopt the policy as presented. Motion carried 4-0
with Mayor Higginson absent.
AD~OURNNE#T
Upon motion by Councilmember Emery, seconded
