PLANNING
Neighborhood Meeting for Proposed Seatainer
A neighborhood meeting was held for a request to keep a seatainer (metal shipping
container) that was installed during the recent construction of a home on the property located
at 15970 Misty Meadow Road in the Rural Residential A (RR-A) zone. The Poway Municipal
Code requires a Minor Conditional Use Permit (MCUP) for a seatainer on a residential
property. An invitation was mailed to property owners and residents within 500 feet of the
project site. One property owner attended the meeting. He did not express opposition to
keeping a seatainer on the property but offered a suggestion to the applicant on how to
remove the large painted logo that currently exists on the seatainer. The project is expected
to be presented to the City Council for consideration in March.

Poway Road (G15-0014) - The contractor has placed the ADA ramp coming up from Poway
Road and flat work around the building. The stairs adjacent to the ramp have been placed.
Curb placement, parking lot subgrade preparation, and landscaping both onsite and along
Poway Road continues.
Ridgeview Industrial Phase II

and basin construction. Grading of the subgrade for the parking lot around building B and

Community Road (WI 16-006) - Last week the contractor placed the concrete loading dock.
The contractor is currently working on grading for the parking lot subgrade. A fire hydrant
was shut down to prevent potential issues where grading in preparation for a keystone wall
and bioretention basin is very close to the back of the fire hydrant.
GA Parking Lot
Danielson Street (G16-0012) - The contractor continues to work on the construction of the
General Atomics employee parking lot. The contractor has completed asphalt placement.
The ADA path of travel for the proposed parking lot at the tie in locations was found not to

in the existing adjacent lots which will eliminate the need for new ADA parking in the
proposed Lot.
