enrollment of 60 students from their present location at 14034 Poway Road to a
larger facility in the Lively Center, located at 13268 Poway Road. Staff
recommends approval.
Speaking in favor of staff recommendation:

requested Council look at this, should there be a problem with the
relocation.
Motion by Mayor Higginson, seconded by Councilmember Callery, to close the public
hearing and adopt Planning Resolution P-95-21, entitled "A Resolution of the City
Council of the City of Poway, California, Approving Minor Conditional Use Permit

ITEM 5 (602-01 #1060 & 1061)
COMPREHENSIVE ENERGY RETROFIT
AND CONSERVATION PROGRAM
Mayor Higginson opened the public hearing. Staff report by Director of Public
Services Randy Williams. Three energy conservation firms have been interviewed
for the purpose of evaluating ways the City could save energy. It has been
determined the City would benefit to upgrade and/or replace heating, ventilating,
air conditioning, lighting, irrigation equipment, and mechanical systems at City
facilities to make it operate in a more efficient and cost effective manner. The
cost of the improvements are paid for from the savings realized by reduced costs
of operation, utility company rebates, and energy savings. The program is
designed to be self-funding and does not require any up-front capital
expenditures. Staff has established guidelines in the scope of work that would
maximize savings benefits to the City and recommends entering into a performance
contract with Southland Industries to provide the design, installation and
maintenance for the energy management needs of the City; and enter into an energy
conservation rebate agreement with SDG&E for the capital portion of the project.
There was no one present wishing to speak.
Council inquired what the total cost of retrofitting would be, and how the
savings will be realized. Director Williams stated it would be an estimated
$600,000 capital expense paid for by Southland Industries and repaid by the City
with money saved on utilities. In the contract, Southland will guarantee the
savings and if they are not realized, Southland will pay the difference.
Motion by Councilmember Emery, seconded by Councilmember Cafagna to close the
public hearing and adopt staff recommendation. Motion carried unanimously.
PUBLIC ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
Mayor Higginson explained the procedure for Public Oral Communications and
announced that Deputy Mayor Callerywould take over the meeting. Mayor Higginson
left the meeting at 7:16 p.m.
The following persons were present wishing to speak:
David Hamann, 17033 Coyote Court, representing eight property owners,
requested Council reconsider CUP 86-08M, Chabad of Poway, heard on April
18, 1995, because the Variance was not included on the Notice of Public
Hearing; pertinent information was not disclosed to them when they
contacted the Planning Department; and the Notice of Public Hearing was
too brief to alert property owners to the size and scope of the proposed
facility.
City Manager Bowersox stated he would ask the City Attorney to look at the
adequacy of the Notice and bring a report back to Council.
Joye Davisson, 13733 Celestial Road, representing ARTS ALIVE!, invited the
public to the "Rites of Spring" annual fund raiser for the Performing Arts
Center.

ITEM 6 (1403-06)
WEED ABATEMENT APPEALS
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. Section 8.76.070 of the Poway Municipal
Code gives any property owner the right to appeal the "Notice to Clean Premises"
within ten days. Notices were given on April 3, 1995, and no appeals have been
received.
There was no one present wishing to present an oral appeal.
ITEM 7 (205-01)
REVIEW OF FY 1995-96 FINANCIAL PLAN
AND S-YEAR FISCAL FORECAST
City Manager Bowersox stated a member of the Budget Review Committee has
requested they be allowed to review this report before it goes to the City
Council. The Committee begins their meetings tomorrow and staff recommends this
report be removed from calendar. Council concurred.
ITEM 8 (1504-10)
DESIGNATION OF SITE FOR
SHERIFF'S SUBSTATION
City Manager Bowersox stated the Real Property Division of the County of San
Diego has requested this item be removed from calendar to allow more time to
resolve some issues in the Memorandum of Understanding including size of the
facility and value of the site. Council concurred.
ITEM 8.1 (209-01)
RELOCATION OF AUTO DEALERS
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. At the March 21, 1995 meeting, the City
Council discussed possible alternative land uses that could be considered for the
South Poway Business Park, including the relocation of the auto dealers from
Poway Road to the South Poway Business Park. While this idea has merit, the use
of Redevelopment funds for this purpose appears to have been precluded by the
passage of AB 1290, which went into effect on January 1, 1994. Without
assistance from the Redevelopment Agency, it would be cost-prohibitive to try to
relocate these businesses.
Council concurred to receive and file.
ITEM 8.2 (1180-05)
REQUEST TO CO-SPONSOR
FAMILY DAY AT LAKE POWAY
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. For Parents' and Kids' Sake is requesting
the City of Poway co-sponsor their first "Family Day at Lake Poway" from 10:00
a.m. to 5:00 p.m., on Sunday, May 21, 1995. This fund raising event is also
being sponsored by Target Stores and is supported by local businesses. Staff is
recommending the City Council authorize co-sponsorship of this event and waive
the parking fees, facilities fees, and fishing fees.
