ITEM 2 (701-04)
ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT
ZOA 00-04
RENTAL VEHICLES/COMMERCIAL ZONES
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. At the June 1, 2000 City Council Workshop, a
pre-development conference on the subject of amending the Poway Municipal Code to
permit the rental of recreational vehicles on property zoned Community Business (CB)
was discussed. At that meeting, the owner of Party Tyme Rentals also addressed the
Council regarding his rental business that is located in the Mixed Use (MU) zone on
Poway Road. About 15 months ago, he added the rental of recreational vehicles to his
legal nonconforming truck rental business and only recently became aware that the City's
zoning ordinance makes a distinction between RV rental and truck rental and the RV
rental is not a permitted use. The Council directed staff to prepare an amendment to the
Zoning Ordinance to allow the rental of recreational vehicles and boats in the Community
Business (CB) zone with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit, to modify the vehicle
uses in the Commercial Use Matrix to have one category of use for vehicle rentals, and
designate RV rental and truck rental as the same type of use to allow the rental of RVS
to be considered a continuation of the legal nonconforming truck rental business occurring
at Party Tyme Rentals. Pursuant to Chapter 17.46 of the Poway Municipal Code, this is
a request to formally initiate the Zoning Ordinance Amendment by Council Resolution.
The following person was present wishing to speak:
Norm Snider, 12538 Poway Road, representing Norm's RV, Inc. spoke in support of the
proposed amendment.

General discussion ensued with Council voicing concerns regarding increased traffic
impact on Oak Knoll Road and residential impacts by the placement of recreational
vehicle rentals on the property by the intersection of Oak Knoll and Pomerado Road.
Motion by Councilmember Goldby, seconded by Deputy Mayor Higginson, to adopt
Resolution No. 00-052, entitled, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Poway,
California Initiating an Amendment to the Poway Municipal Code, Zoning Ordinance
Amendment ZOA 00-04? Motion carried unanimously.
ITEM 9.1 (1207-01)
TDA FUNDS
TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT ACT FUNDS
METROPOLITAN TRANSIT DISTRICT BOARD
Councilmember Emery provided Council as their representative on MTDB, with a brief
overview of the MTD staff proposal to the MTDB Board for a unified transportation
development act claims process. Although Poway staff is recommending opposition to
the proposal, Councilmember Emery expressed his opinion that the proposal should be
approved. The City of Poway would be guaranteed the same flow of funds as received
today, however future expansion projects would require competition with the other cities
in the County. The bottom line is that with the pooling concept, more funds would be
available regionally.
Motion by Councilmember Rexford, seconded by Councilmember Goldby, to support the
unified TDA claims proposal. Motion carried unanimously.
