requested the City Council reconsider the drainage improvements for the library
site. On May 23, 1995, staff had presented four alternatives for Rattlesnake
Creek across the site. Counc i 1 selected Alternative "D" which i ncl uded a
concrete box culvert from Poway Road to the future extension of Tarascan Road and
then a naturalized open channel to connect with the open channel improvements at
Community Park. These improvements will flood proof the library site and allow
for the least costly extension of Tarascan Road. They also allow for the

options may exist and their market possibilities for the South Poway Business
