WHEREAS, on December 3, 2019, the City Council held a duly advertised public hearing
to solicit comments from the public, both for and against, relative to this application; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has read and considered the agenda report for the proposed
project and for the associated Zoning Change (ZC) 19-002 and has considered other evidence
presented at the public hearing.
follows:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Poway as
SECTION 1: The above recitations are true and correct.
SECTION 2: The City Council has considered the project and determined that the project
is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as a Class 8 Categorical
Exemption, pursuant to Section 15308 of the CEQA Guidelines, in that the project involves a
General Plan Amendment, Zone Change and Specific Plan Amendment for the purpose of
preserving habitat and protecting the environment.
SECTION 3: The City Council finds that the proposed General Plan Amendment will
assist in the preservation of biological mitigation land, unique biological habitats, and significant
topographic features, and would result in a land use designation that is compatible with the
adjoining open space and low-density residential land uses, and implements the goals and
policies of the City's Habitat Conservation Plan.
SECTION 4: The City Council hereby approves GPA 19-002 to change the General Plan
land use designation of 52 parcels, or portions thereof, located throughout the City identified by
the APNs noted above, from either RR -A, RR -B, RR -C, RS -2, RS -4, RC or PRD to OS -RM.
