Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. This item has been continued several
times since being placed on the agenda following a complaint made under Public

was reported at the August 4, 1992, City Council meeting that an agreement was
close to being reached between the Baldwins and the Silver Saddle Homeowners
Association, however there is still disagreement. Since the City is not a party
to the agreement and only is responsible for enforcing provisions that are part

accordingly. Motion carried unanimously. Councilmember Snesko also suggested

ITEM 11.1 (602-01, #173R)
POWAY CREEK PEDESTRIAN BRIDGES
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. On January 28, 1992, City Council
directed staff to budget construction for the bridge across Poway Creek at
Rattlesnake Creek (Soule Street) and to look for funding sources for a bridge
across Poway Creek at Bowron Road. The bridge at Carriage Road was the third
priority. Community Development Block Grant funds are being pursued for the
Bowron Road bridge and with the recent bidding climate and a partial grant of
bikeway funds staff prepared bid documents for the remaining two bridges. Bids
were opened on September 29 and the low bidder, Flippen Engineering, bid $52,589
for the Rattlesnake Creek bridge and $39,303.66 for the Carriage Road bridge for
a total of $91,892.73. Funds are available for both bridges. Staff recommends
award of both bridges or Rattlesnake Creek bridge alone.
Mike Fry, 12819 Selma Court, requested the City Council build all three bridges,
citing a need for pedestrian access to many areas of the City.
Councilmember McIntyre stated that in January the residents from the Carriage
Road area indicated that the bridge at Soule Street would serve their needs also
and suggested that the funds could be used for something else on the "wish list."
Motion by Councilmember Emery, seconded by Councilmember Snesko to award the bid
for two bridges across Poway Creek to Flippen Engineering in the amount of
$91,892.73. Motion carried 4-1 with Councilmember McIntyre voting "no."
