ITEM 3 (401-22)
TRAFFIC IMPACT MITIGATION FEE
LAND USE DESIGNATION CHANGES
SOUTH POWAY BUSINESS PARK
Deputy Mayor Rexford opened the public hearing. Staff report by City Manager
Bowersox. On December 17, 2002, Council established a traffic mitigation fee of $55
for every average daily trip (ADT) estimated to be generated as a result of a land use
designation change from Light Industrial to Industrial Park, and established 71 ADT per
acre as the expected increase in ADT associated with the change. The fee is deemed
necessary to off-stet the costs of providing identified long range circulation related
improvements in the Business Park associated with the intensification of use as
identified in the Traffic Study prepared for SPA 84-01QQ. With the recent commercial
development interest in the Business Park, there is a need to apply a similar fee to land
use designation changes from LI to IP to South Poway Commercial (SPC). The
recommended traffic impact mitigation fee would be applicable to all projects within the
South Poway Specific Plan (SPSP) area requesting and receiving the land use
designation change.
There was no one present wishing to speak.
Motion by Councilmember Emery, seconded by Councilmember Goldby, to close the
public hearing and adopt Resolution No. 03-018, entitled, "A Resolution of the City
Council, of the City of Poway, California, Approving a Traffic Mitigation Fee for South
Poway Specific Plan Amendments that Change the Land Use Designation of Properties

reported to the City Council on August 3, 1999. Tonight's report includes an annual
summary of all approvals from January 1, 1999, through December 31, 2002. This is a

No objection as filed.
ITEM 4 (205-04)
FY 2002-2003 MIDYEAR BUDGET AMENDMENTS
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. Each year all departments do a midyear
evaluation to determine if budget amendments are necessary.
On June 26, 2001, the City Council approved the FY 2001-02 and FY 2002-03 two-year
Financial Program. At the start of the second year of the Program, the City Council
adopted a Program update effective July 1, 2002, that established an operating budget
of $52,065,740 and a RedevelopmentJHousing Services operating budget of
$5,074,480. Under the Program, General Fund revenues were projected to exceed
expenditures by $98,039. On January 15, 2002, the City Council established the City
and Redevelopment Agency multi-year Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Program,
funding $16.4 million in new projects. 7768
12 of 24 April 15, 2003, Item #(P
Page 5 - CITY OF POWAY - March 18, 2003
With adoption of amendments to the Financial Program for FY 2002-03, the City Council
established a new Economic Uncertainty Fund. This action set aside $2,000,000 of the
approximately $14,000,000 General Fund balance to be used in subsequent years in
the event the State elects to reduce funding allocated to local agencies.
Staff has completed a midyear evaluation of the City's FY 2002-03 midyear fiscal status
and prepared this report. The Budget Review Committee reviewed it on March 11,
2003.
Other than the proposed midyear expenditure reduction plan, no additional major
expenditure adjustments are proposed. The figures reflect implementation of the
mandated Storm Water Management program, and the reduction of $179,800 in
revenue due to the suspension of the program's Pollution Abatement Fee. Adjustments
adopted at the start of FY 2002-03, from the original two-year Financial Program
adopted in June 2001, included an appropriation for Always Remember 9-11 Disaster
Relief contribution, increased insurance costs in both general liability and worker's
compensation, higher expense for development activity offset by related revenues, and
approximately $260,000 of renovations taking place in the Landscape Maintenance
Districts.
For the CIP Program, a number of adjustments to projects are proposed with midyear.
New projects include $2,000,000 for the Pomerado Road sound wall, and $250,000 for
Tannin Road student parking. Additional appropriations for updated project costs
include $2,750,000 for Community Road widening, $1,335,250 for construction of Fire
Station III, and $489,670 for Old Poway Phase IV. These cost adjustments are
generally related to an increase in the projects' scope or updated estimates. Due to the
uncertainty of the impact from the State, projects are funded by the General Fund only
as required.
Staff will be compiling an updated five-year fiscal forecast for the General Fund for
Council consideration as part of the upcoming two-year budget cycle. The forecast will
evaluate the extent to which increasing revenues and the General Fund surplus are
sustainable in future years.
Motion by Deputy Mayor Rexford, seconded by Councilmember Emery, to adopt
Resolution No. 03-020, entitled, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Poway,
California Approving Midyear Amendments to the City's Financial Program for Fiscal
Year 2002-2003." Motion carried unanimously.

MIDLAND ROAD SOFTBALL FIELDS
Introduction by City Manager Bowersox. The Poway Girls' Softball League
approached the City with a request to create additional softball fields. They had
completed a needs assessment in November 2001 and submitted to the City.
The needs assessment described the organization, its present fields and
facilities, and presented a projection of future growth and the needs of the
league.
With the purchase of floodway parcels in the Old Poway Park area, a potential
opportunity has been created to meet this recreational need. The site size is
seven acres, located west of Midland Road and north of Aubrey Street and is
presently occupied by a Christmas Tree Farm lot and three other parcels. The
floodway limit runs diagonally through the tree farm with the flood plain limit
encompassing the entire project area.
A concept plan was reviewed by the Development Review Committee and
several areas of concern were identified such as the requirements of the
Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plan requiring mitigation of runoff
pollutants from the parking areas and ball fields, such as chalk, fertilizers, and
infield dirt.
The concept plan includes a total of 5 fields, including 4 fields measuring 125 feet
and 1 lighted field measuring 175 feet; a parking lot with the capacity to hold 110
cars; one building with storage, a snack bar, restrooms, and a meeting space; a
gazebo and meandering lighted sidewalks. The estimated base cost for the
project is $2.5 million to $3.5 million. Items that are not included are any
improvements that may be suggested by neighboring residents. 7772

- Page 3 - CiTY OF POWAY - March 20, 2003
The Poway Girls' Softball League has offered an alternative to a totally City-
funded project. They have embarked on an aggressive fundraising effort and
retained the services of a design engineer, which would reduce the role of city
staff to the managing and overseeing of the project. If the entire project were to
be done as a private development, the costs are estimated at $2.4 million.
If Council concurs there is an interest in the project, it would be turned over to the
Parks and Recreation Committee and neighborhood meetings would be arranged
to see what can be developed and then brought back to Council.
