BACKGROUND:
The City of Poway is planning to widen the northern half of Espola Road from
Cloudcroft Drive to approximately 2,600-feet east of Cloudcroft Drive to its
ultimate width.
It is the City's policy to underground all utilities along major arterials or
when the street adjoins or passes through public recreation areas or civic
areas. Espola Road falls within this policy. The proposed boundaries of the
district are shown on the attached drawings (Attachment 1).

Espola Road is a major arterial in the City of Poway. It is heavily traveled
by both vehicles and pedestrians. Placing the utilities underground will
increase the safety of all users.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This project is not subject to C.E.Q.A. review.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost of undergrounding the utilities will be borne by Poway's portion of
the "Underground 20-A Fund" administered by San Diego Gas and Electric, and
the City of Poway. The cost of the trenching and placement of conduit will be
borne by the City at the estimated cost of $300,000.00.
