ITEM 2 (203-18)
PRE-DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE 99-01A
APPLICANT: STEVEN STONE
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. This is a request to redesignate a 9.53 acre parcel
located on the southeast corner of Solera Way and Tannin Drive from Open Space-
Reserve (OS-R) to Rural ResidentiaI-A (RR-A) for the purpose of constructing a single
family home.
The applicant, Steven Stone provided a brief overview of the history of the property. It has
been owned by the Catholic Diocese of San Diego since 1978 and he currently has it in
escrow. It was originally contemplated that the property would be used by the Diocese for
a church or church retreat facility. The current zoning and land use became effective
November 1988 with the passage of Proposition FF. Immediately prior to the passage of
Proposition FF, the property was zoned OS, which among other uses, allowed the
development of a single family dwelling. The City Attorney was consulted to determine
whether redesignation to RR-A could be perceived to be in conflict with Proposition FF, and
he concluded that the property could be rezoned to a residential zone to allow one

residential unit (the 1988 level) without voter approval. However, since the RR-A
designation would allow mom than one unit, favorable consideration of the RR-A request
must be conditioned to restrict further subdivision of the property.
The applicant stated that he did not have a problem with that condition being applied.
Council concurred that this would be a beneficial use of the property.
ITEM 3 (203-18)
PRE-DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE 99-01B
APPLICANT: JOSEPH BAYANI
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. This is a request to redesignate a 8.1 acre site
located on the southwest corner of Pomerado Road and Leona Lane from Residential
Single Family-3 (RS-3) to Residential Single Family-4 (RS-4) permitting him to split his
existing lot and build a new home. Them are several other development projects proposed
in the project ama including a new day care center and the construction of four new single
family homes. The proposed redesignation would provide potential for only two additiOnal
parcels, one being the applicant's.
The applicant, Joe Bayani spoke in support of his proposal citing support of the other
developers and homeowners in the ama.
Council expressed the need to view the property and adjoining ama.
