Pre-Application for GPA 95-01
BACKGROUND
On April 4, 1989, the City Council adopted a resolution providing for review of
pre-applications for General Plan amendments. The purpose of this review is to
allow the proponent of the pre-application and staff to ascertain the Council's
level of interest in the request. The review is considered advisory only, and
if the applicant wishes to proceed, the formal public application must be
submitted by February 28, 1992 for consideration at a public hearing in June.
This year, although staff spoke to four perspective candidates, only one pre-
General Plan application was received. With the pre-application request staff
has included certain maps and other information to assist the City Council in
their review.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Preliminary reviews of proposed General Plan amendments are not considered a
project and therefore not subject to CEQA.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council revi ew the attached pre-app 1 i cat ion
contained within this report.

ABSTRACT
1.73 acres
Current Land Use and
Zoning Designation:
Rural Residential-C
(RR-C)
Requested Land Use and
Zoning Designation:
Residential Single Family-4 (RS-4)
BACKGROUND
The applicant is requesting consideration of a General Plan amendment for a 1.73
acre parcel which is developed with a single family residence. The subject parcel
is located on Budwin Lane, south of Twin Peaks Road near the former Daren Johnson
Ranch. The single family home is constructed on the northern end of the parcel.
The remainder of the parcel is constrained by the 100-year floodplain of
Rattlesnake Creek and remains undeveloped. The land is generally flat with a
slight southerly slope toward Rattlesnake Creek.
Surrounding zoning and land uses to the north include single family residences
designated Residential Single Family-4 (RS-4). To the east is the former Daren
Johnson Ranch located on a four acre parcel and an adjoining two-acre parcel,
zoned RR-C, that is part of the Country Creek subdivision. The remainder of the
Country Creek development is zoned RS-4. West of the subject parcel is Budwin
Lane beyond whi ch 1 i e s i ngl e famil y res i dences, also designated RS-4. Rattl esnake
Creek and associated floodplain and floodway traverse the southern portion of the
parcel and the adjoining southern parcel.
The applicant has proposed redesignating the subject property from RR-C to RS-4.
The appl i cant has i ndi cated that the dra i nage improvements made along Rattl esnake
Creek within the Country Creek subdivision have significantly reduced the areas
encumbered by the floodplain and floodway on his property, thereby creating the
potential for subdivision of the land. The Residential Single Family-4
designation request is to seek compatibility with the surrounding land use and
zoning.
Although, the channel improvements have reduced the extent of the floodplain, it
has not entirely removed the floodplain or floodway from the parcel. These flood
constrained areas are typically designated Rural Residential-C throughout the
City. In addition, given that the applicant is requesting an increase in
potential density for a Rural Residential designated parcel, the constraints and
regul at ions of Propos i t ion FF apply. Shoul d the appl i cant fil e a formal General
Pl an Amendment app 1 i cat i on, the redes i gnat i on request must be placed on the 1 oca 1
ballot and approved by the citizens of Poway.

Subject:
Pre-application
GPA and Rezone
Dear Mr. Lyons,
Please accept my application request and schematic site plan for consideration
along with the City of Poway's annual update.
My property was zoned RR-C because the Flood Plain Maps (at the time)
indicated the majority of my property was subject to the 100 year flood.
However, the Flood Plain Mapping has been updated (FEMA), and now the
majority of my property is out of the flood plain.
I hereby request that the zone and general plan redesign be reinstated.
Sincerely,
~~

Please find enclosed the corrections and additions referenced in your letter of

feet of my lot, and an executed application for a pre-plan review.
I am requesting that our property be re-zoned frODl C(RR-C) to single family
4(RS-4). If this re-zoning is completed, my property would be compatible with
the existing zones in the area.
If there is any additional action necessary, please contact Dle directly at
748-2130 or 679-1037.
Sincerely,
