ABSTRACT
On May 23, 1995, the City Council and the Redevelopment Agency directed staff to
conduct neighborhood meetings to discuss limitations of Stowe Drive extension and
search for other alternatives. A total of three meetings were held and a variety of
alternatives for emergency access/secondary access to Old Pomerado Road were discussed.
The majority of the property owners in attendance were concerned with the need for a
second access during an emergency; the need for a pedestrian crossing at the existing
bridge; inspection and evaluation of the structural integrity of the existing bridge;
and the installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Pomerado Road and Old
Pomerado Road.
- ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action is not subject to C.E.Q.A. review and a separate environmental review will

Access for Old Pomerado Road
BACKGROUND:
On June 11, 1992, the City Council and the Redevelopment Agency held a
workshop to discuss several issues relative to the Old Pomerado Road
neighborhood. At that meeting, the Council and the Agency approved the
project to extend Stowe Drive from Pomerado Road to Old Pomerado Road. The
approval was based on a preliminary design which included a preliminary
alignment and a description of the roadway. $400,000 was budgeted from the
Redevelopment Agency for the project.
At that workshop, staff also presented the traffic signal analYSis at the
intersection of Old Pomerado Road and Pomerado Road. Should Stowe Drive not
be extended, a traffic signal would be warranted in the future at the
intersection of Old Pomerado Road and Pomerado Road.
As a result of more detailed survey and design analysis, several significant
issues were identified by staff relative to the design of Stowe Drive
extension. These issues include steep slopes, severe horizontal and vertical
curves, substandard width, and impact on adjoining properties.
On May 23, 1995, the City Council and the Redevelopment Agency directed staff
to conduct neighborhood meetings to discuss the limitations of Stowe Drive
extension and propose other alternatives to the access.

Adopt a Plan to Provioe Alternative Emergency/Secondary Access
for Old Pomerado Road
December 19, 1995
- Page 2
FINDINGS:
Three neighborhood meetings were held over six months and a variety of
alternatives for emergency access/second access to Old Pomerado Road were
analyzed and discussed.
On November 15, 1995, staff met with homeowners for the third time to discuss
the six alternatives that had been proposed by the residents of Old Pomerado
Road. Attachment 1 contains the tabulation of the six alternatives for an
emergency/second access to Old Pomerado Road with the associated costs which
were presented at this meeting. The following concerns were expressed by the
majority of property owner in attendance:
1. Need for a second access especially during an emergency.
2. Need for a pedestrian crossing at the existing bridge located
immediately to the south of the Big Stone Lodge.
3. Inspection and evaluation of the structural integrity of the existing
bridge located immediately south of the Big Stone Lodge and proposed
repairs as may be needed (Attachment 2).
4. Installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Pomerado Road
and Old Pomerado Road once the warrant(s) is/are met.
Although there was support for Alternatives 1 and 3, the majority of the
attendees agreed that Alternative 6 would be the most conducive to creating
the emergency access as well as provide sufficient funds to address the
pedestrian crossing, evaluation of the existing bridge, and the installation
of a traffic signal concerns.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$400,000 has been budgeted from the Redevelopment Agency and is sufficient to
address the emergency and pedestrian access and the installation of the
traffic signal.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This action is not subject to C.E.Q.A. review and a separate environmental
review will be prepared for each project.
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION l CORRESPONDENCE:
Bill Rickles, President, Southwest Poway Homeowners Association and Neville
Bothwell.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council and the Redevelopment Agency:
1. Approve Alternate 6 which provides an emergency access road located
at the south end of Old Pomerado Road and connects to the Scripps
Poway Parkway.

I Subject: Stowe Drive Extension/Second Access to Old Pomerado Road
Dear Property Owner:
As you may be aware, the City Council approved a capital improvement project to
extend Stowe Drive from Pomerado Road to Old Pomerado Road. City staff began
final design of this project and determined that the approved location north of the
Big Stone Lodge would result in an unsafe roadway design. City staff brought this
information to City Council and requested that this issue be discussed within the
neighborhood to look at alternative solutions to accessing Old Pomerado Road.
City staff held a neighborhood meeting on September 13, 1995 to discuss
alternatives to the proposed alignment of Stowe Drive extension. Following that
meeting, staff developed six alternatives which provide either secondary or
emergency access to Old Pomerado Road. Enclosed is a description of each of the
six alternatives for your review.
We have scheduled another neighborhood meeting for Wednesday, November 15,
1995 at 7:00 p.m. in the City Hall Council Chambers located at 13325 Civic
Center Drive.
Staff will present each alternative and then receive input from the neighborhood in
order to develop a recommendation to City Council. We look forward to seeing
you at the next neighborhood meeting. If you have any questions, please feel free
to call me at 679-4262.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Siminou,
Thank you for your letter on November 1, regarding the Stowe
Drive Extension/Secondary Access to Old Pomrado Road. I unfortu-
nately will not be able to make the meeting on Wednesday, Novem-
ber 15, however I would respectfully like to draw your attention
to another significant fact. Five of the six options which you
have presented show the access from Old Pomrado to the new Pomra-
do, north of the bridge on Old Pomrado. This bridge was con-
structed in the thirties and is vulnerable to floods, earth-
quakes, and any other natural disasters, and indeed if it were to
be taken out for any reason would strand apprOXimately 45 fami-
lies south of the bridge.
There is only one appropriate option which you have described in
your communication. That is option #6, which allows for the exit
from Old Pomrado to the existing Scripps Poway Parkway, south of
the bridge, thereby allowing the 45 families south of the bridge
to have an emergency exit if needed.
In conclusion then, I believe your considering any opinions other
than thoee in favor of option #6 would be irrelevant, since the
city is morally obligated to anticipate and avoid residents being
stranded in a natural disaster situation such as the loss of the
bridge.
Thank you in advance for your invitation to comment on your
proposal. I trust that you will act accordingly.

OP D:VIS!ON
SUBJECT: stowe Drive Extension/Access to Old Pomerado Road
Dear Mayor and Council,
I live at 12568 Golden Eye Lane, which branches off of Old
Pomerado Road at Paseo Colina. I was therefore sent the
information from city staff concerning the alternatives being
proposed to provide a secondary or emergency access to Old
Pomerado Road. I also attended the November 15 evening meeting at
which the alternatives were presented by staff and then
discussed, in order to recommend one of the alternatives to the
council.
I am a civil engineer with the City of San Diego and am involved
with determining the feasibility and cost of proposed street
improvement projects, and identifying possible funding sources.
Since the construction of "new" Pomerado Road and Scripps poway
Parkway have eliminated most of the original Pomerado Road, what
remains is essentially a local, residential cul-de-sac (cds)
street. It is not unlike many local cds streets throughout poway
and the San Diego region, including my own street, which ends in
a cds. Granted, it is longer than most residential cds streets at
approximately 4000'. I don't believe that length is a relevant
factor, not when street blockage is the issue. The chances of
some emergency occuring on Old Pomerado Road and blocking ingress
and egress do not appear to be greater than on any other cds
street. I do not believe that the city is responsible for
providing secondary accesses to dead end streets unless there is
some unusual circumstance. Why should city funds be expended to
provide this luxury to satiSfy a small group of residents who
have this fear of entrappment?
The costs of the various alternatives being proposed range from
$0.23 to $1.04 million, which would come from the city's general
fund. An awful lot of pothole repair that would benefit the
entire city could be completed with that money, not to mention
many other worthwhile uses. My opinion is that if these residents
want this additional access, thev should pay for it.
I realize that you have already approved this project, but I hope
that you will reconsider. If on. alternative must be chosen, I
favor alternative 6, primarily because it is the least expensive,
at $230,000. Staff stated that $400,000 has been programmed for
this project. At the meeting, concerns were also expressed by
some residents about the safety of the Beeler Creek bridge for
pedestrians, turning movements at the "new" and "old" pomerado
Road intersection, and drainage deficiencies on portions of "old"
Pomerado Road. Perhaps these items could be rectified using the
balance of the $400,000 if alternative 6 is selected. This was
the suggestion of your Engineering Services Department staff, and
I favor that recommendation.
Sincerely,
~ 01iL- S ~ DEe 191995 ITeM 24

Dear Mr. Weston:
Thank you for the informative meetings regarding the secondary access to
Old Pomerado Road,
As I did in the meeting, I must stress my opposition to the suggestion
of placing the emergency road at the end of Old Pomerado Road. While it
does satisfy certain criteria, i.e., an emergency access, it does not
address the larger and equally critical concerns of traffic and the
coexistence of commercial and residential uses.
Since the Council's approval of the extension of Stowe drive in 1992, my
company, Big Stone Lodge, has spent considerable amounts of money
renovating and improving our business property,in large part because of
Stowe Drive being extended at some time in the near future.
With the apparent absence of that happening we will not be able to
alleviate the concerns of the residents about traffic nor will we be
able to realize the return on our investment expected as a result of the
Council's action (6/~8/92). Creating the environment for a strong
business is an aid to successful management of public funds and a
revenue source resulting of increased sales taxes and property values
I strongly believe that the better long-range solution to the problem
will be to extend Stowe Drive '{your option One, November 1, ~995) and
create a right-turn-only at the intersection of Old and new Pomerado
Road.

I will be happy to meet with you to discuss this option and the benefits
to be gained by proceeding. I got the strong impression at the November
15th meeting that although there was support for Option 6, most people
could be equally pleased with Option One.
