City Planner Stan Donn presented the item. He stated, per Council's directive at the February 6 2024 Regular meeting, staff prepared amendments to the Poway Municipal Code (PMC) to eliminate the Minor Development Review Application (MORA) requirements for the construction of a single home, additions, remodels, detached accessory structures, and unlighted recreational courts.
By eliminating the MORA requirements, the mechanism to identify all necessary permits and approvals with a project is also eliminated. In the absence of the MORA requirement, staff have developed an applicant information sheet to provide guidance when projects trigger approvals in addition to a building permit. Examples of projects which could trigger additional requirements were provided.
Mr. Donn added, the applicant will be responsible for placing a City provided sign at the front of the property as a public noticing requirement. He stated the elimination of the MORA requirement will reduce costs and time associated with the development process for applicants as well as increase staff's availability to review and manage other more complex discretionary projects.
Public Comment:
Eric Weller, on behalf of Poway Voices, spoke in opposition to Item #12 and the removal of the MORA requirement .
End of Public Comment.
Mayor Vaus closed the Public Hearing at 7: 11 p.m.

Council and City staff discussed private property rights, public noticing signage requirements and the public's access to new notices and building permits via the City's website. Council confirmed building project applicants are still required to submit all technical documents and plans with their building permit application. Council responded positively to the amendments, citing improved efficiencies and the reduction of unnecessary costs and time associated with the MORA development process.
As requested by the Mayor, City Clerk Gallagher titled the Ordinance and took a roll call vote.

Senior Civil Engineer Sara Trunzo presented the item along with a PowerPoint presentation.
She provided an aerial photo of the property and the overhead utility lines and poles that run through the subject and neighboring properties on Creek Road. The proposed development consists of demolition of an existing single-family home and construction of a new single family residence per MORA 21-028.
Ms. Trunzo explained the Minor Development Review Application (MORA) requires the undergrounding of any overhead utility lines spanning the property. Per City policy established by Resolution No. 91-003, the project qualifies for a waiver of the requirement to underground utilities, and the property owner has the option of paying an in-lieu fee to be established by resolution of the City Council.
SDG&E informed City staff electrical services for the adjacent properties fronting Creek Road will be provided by new underground electrical lines, thus the project will extend the underground electrical lines in Creek Road to serve the new residents. She explained the applicant is placing underground service lines along the frontage of their property, requiring the removal, relocation and installation of the existing overhead poles.
Ms. Trunzo noted the in-lieu fee is the actual cost of the work to remove the overhead lines within the property and relocate an overhead pole. The fee is calculated at $9,493.20 and would be kept in an account held by the City until the work is completed. The applicant has recorded a covenant agreeing not to oppose a future utility undergrounding district and to pay their pro rata share of the actual removal costs of the existing overhead transmission lines within the property.

Resolution Authorizing the Acceptance of the 2023 State Homeland Security Grant Program Funds
The Department of Homeland Security provides funds through the State Homeland Security Grant Program (SHSP) to cities to build and sustain emergency response capabilities. The grant is administered regionally by the San Diego County Office of Emergency Services. Funds for training are allocated to each jurisdiction based on population. Poway's allocation for the SHSP Grant Fiscal Year 2023 is $21,779.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing staff to accept funds through the State Homeland Security Grant Program Fiscal Year 2023.
Discussion:
The Department of Homeland Security provides funds through the SHSP Grant to states and local agencies to build, sustain, and deliver emergency response capabilities. The funds help advance the program's goals and objectives.
The County of San Diego applies for, receives and administers federal grant funds associated with the program. The County's Unified Disaster Council, of which Poway is a member, is the governing body that determines the local grant distribution formula, which is based on each jurisdiction's population.
After making qualified purchases, cities are reimbursed by the County for the full purchase amount.
One of the program's goals is to strengthen communication capabilities with an objective to implement a statewide interoperability plan. To advance this goal the City plans to use the allocated $21,779 in grant funds to purchase replacement Very High Frequency (VHF) radios. VHF radios are the standard for communication during a wildfire event throughout the State of California and are 1 of4
July 16, 2024, Item #4
required for fire agencies that provide mutual aid. VHF radios operate at a different band level then the 800MHz radios used during other emergency response incidents. Both VHF radios and 800MHz radios are essential for ensuring firefighter safety and interoperability during an emergency incident.
This funding will be used to replace VHF mobile radios as a part of the Department's ongoing VHF mobile radio upgrade efforts.
Environmental Review:
This item is not subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Fiscal Impact:
The City currently budgets for the replacement of some VHF mobile radios annually and will still incur costs this year. The State Homeland Security Grant does not require matching funds. Upon completion of the grant-related expenditures in the amount of $21,779, the General Fund will be reimbursed through the grant funding. The reimbursed funds will allow the City to replace additional VHF mobile radios as a part of the Department's ongoing VHF mobile radio upgrade efforts and provide additional VHF radios to Fire. It is anticipated all grant expenditures and reimbursements will be completed by December 30, 2025.

CITY COUNCIL
Approval of Agreement with the San Diego Humane Society for Animal Services The City's Agreement with the San Diego Humane Society (SDHS) for animal services (Agreement) expired on June 30, 2024, but has a 90-day administrative extension. A new Agreement has been prepared with a similar scope and an increase in fees of 5.1 %, from the Fiscal Year 2023-24 fee of $241,968 to $254,328, based on the cost to provide the service and the City's level of use of the service.
The Agreement is for 3 years with up to two 1-year extensions by mutual agreement.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended the City Council approve the Agreement and authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents associated with the Agreement between the City of Poway and the SDHS for Animal Services.
Discussion:
Since 2005, the City has contracted with SDHS for animal sheltering and field services required by State, County, and City laws and ordinances. The existing Agreement expired on June 30, 2024, but has been extended by administrative extension to allow a new Agreement to be prepared to continue this arrangement. The effective date will be retroactive to July 1, 2024. Because the County of San Diego stopped providing animal services to other jurisdictions years ago, there are very limited options short of the City providing the service itself, which would require facilities and resources the City does not currently have.
The scope of services in the new Agreement is largely the same as in the previous one. These services include maintenance and operation of an animal shelter; management of a dog licensing program; enforcement of licensing and rabies vaccination requirements; investigation and enforcement of reports of cruelty to animals; responding to reports of dangerous domestic animals or animal bites; rattlesnake removal; disaster relief services; patrolling; and enforcement of laws related to the keeping of wild animals, off-leash dogs, barking dogs, and other related items. 1 of 20
July 16, 2024, Item #5
Officers from the SDHS patrol from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. seven days a week, with adjustments to provide coverage at specific times during which potential issues have been noted or reported. In addition, residents can call the dispatch center at (619) 299-7012 to report any observed issues. After-hours reports are taken in and then handled during service hours except for emergency items such as (a) law enforcement requesting immediate assistance, (b) animal bite where the domestic animal poses an immediate threat or the bite injury is to the head or can be considered severe, (c) any act of cruelty or neglect to animals in progress or placing an animal in imminent danger, (d) any domestic animal known to be dangerous or vicious by previous determination in an administrative hearing or perceived to be an immediate threat or menacing the individuals reporting the event, (e) any live domestic animal presenting an immediate hazard to humans, such as one in traffic lanes of a major thoroughfare or highway, or (f) any domestic animal that is sick, injured, and in immediate danger.
The changes to the Agreement are generally minor wording changes. The two notable changes are that SDHS can invoice the City for disaster response if the City requests assistance, and SDHS can use outsourced veterinary services when necessary. In most respects, the services to be provided and the terms remain unchanged.
The fee charged to each jurisdiction by SDHS is proportional to the demand for services each jurisdiction generates. For the first year of this new Agreement, the cost to Poway would increase from $241,968 to $254,328, an increase of 5.1%. The fee in subsequent years would be based on SDHS's cost to provide services, with any proposed increase over 3% requiring notification to the City by January 31 of the year in which it would take effect on July 1.
Environmental Review:
This item is not subject to CEQA review.
Fiscal Impact:
The $254,328 for the first year of this agreement is included in Account 200020-41010 in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 adopted budget. The cost offuture years will be included in each year's budget proposal.

Pursuant to California Labor Code section 1861, SDHS hereby certifies that SDHS is aware of the provisions of Section 3 700 of the California Labor Code which require every employer to be insured against liability for Workers' Compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions of the Labor Code, and SDHS will comply with such provisions, and certification of proof of compliance as a part of this Agreement.
9. NO CONFLICT OF INTEREST. SDHS shall not enter into any other contract which conflicts with its obligations under this Agreement. For the sole and limited purpose of interpreting this section 9, SDHS shall be deemed a "city officer or employee," and this section shall be interpreted in accordance with the California Government Code section 1090.
10. OWNERSHIP OF DOCUMENTS.
10.1. Reports and documents prepared or provided by SDHS under this Agreement shall be the property of the CITY. The CITY agrees to hold SDHS free and harmless from any claim arising from any use, other than the purpose intended, of the reports and documents, prepared or provided by SDHS. SDHS may retain a copy of all materials produced under this Agreement for the purpose of documenting their participation in this Agreement.
10.2. Animal license information and data, including, but not limited to, animal owner identification and address, animal name, description, license type and expiration date, are the property of the CITY and must be presented to the CITY in any reasonable document and computer format requested in writing by the CITY. All such information must be provided to the CITY within thirty (30) days of the CITY's request.
11. COMPENSATION. SDHS shall receive the following compensation for the performance of the Services.
11.1. Payments by the CITY. The CITY shall make payments to SDHS as follows:
8 of 20
(a) For the first twelve (12) month term of this Agreement, "Year 1 Compensation" (July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025), compensation shall be $254,328.00, or $21,194.00 per month for each month.
(b) Both the CITY and SDHS recognize that costs to provide animal control, licensing and sheltering services to the CITY fluctuate over time. These fluctuations are a result of, but not limited to, costs to hire, retain and train SDHS personnel, costs of materials required to provide the services, the number of animals taken in by SDHS on behalf of the CITY, the condition of those animals, the time required to return or rehome those animals, the number of services provided by our Humane Law Enforcement Officers, the number of licenses issued and the number of cities being provided services by SDHS.
July 16, 2024, Item #5
(c) Both the CITY and SDHS recognize that the CITY's budgeting process does not allow for significant fluctuations in the amount paid to SDHS by the CITY. The CITY and SDHS also recognize that the timing of the CITY's and SDHS' budgeting processes also make it difficult to incorporate fluctuations in a current year into the compensation figure for the following year.
( d) Considering all the above, the CITY and SDHS agree to base annual compensation on the following:
(e) SDHS will project the costs required to provide animal control, licensing and sheltering services to all the cities under contract with SDHS. SDHS will project costs based on actual historical expenses, adjusted for expected changes in the upcoming contract year. SDHS will track historical statistics by each city under contract with SDHS and will use those statistics to allocate the projected costs to the CITY. The nature of the statistics tracked by SDHS may include, but are not limited to, Animal Intake, Animal Days Sheltered by SDHS, vet provided services, licenses issued and services provided by Humane Law Enforcement Officers. SDHS will also factor in any additional services requested by the CITY that is unique to that CITY and requires additional costs to SDHS. (f) By March 31st of each year, SDHS will provide the CITY with a budget packet to include their compensation cost to SDHS. SDHS will provide to the CITY a breakdown of the total compensation figure by the types of expenses required in providing services to the CITY. SDHS will provide explanations for changes in compensation not related to changes in CPI. The budget packet will include a form, for the CITY to sign and return to SDHS, acknowledging the compensation amount for the upcoming year.
11.2. In order to minimize year over year fluctuations in compensation required by the CITY, SDHS is required to communicate to the CITY any annual projected increase that exceeds CPI by 3% by January 31st for the upcoming contract year starting on the following July 1st.
11.3. Other Revenue. SDHS shall be entitled to retain as compensation for the Services:
(i) all reasonable user fees, service charges and proceeds collected by SDHS in connection with licensing, impounds, and redemption of domestic animals from the Shelter, (ii) any fines received by SDHS or the CITY arising out of any administrative citations issued by Humane Officers; and (iii) any other non-citation related revenue generated as a result of this Agreement. All user fees and service charges shall not exceed the reasonable cost of providing the service.
1.0 DISASTER RELIEF SERVICES. SDHS shall be designated the "Essential Support Function/Official Responder" with respect to any disaster to which the CITY is included within the disaster area designated by a governmental agency. SDHS may invoice the CITY for any costs and expenses, including staff overtime and equipment purchases and rentals, incurred by SDHS with respect to additional services provided by SDHS in connection with any disaster relief effort and which are eligible for reimbursement to Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") Disaster Assistance Policy 9523 .19 or any successor disaster assistance policy promulgated by FEMA. The CITY shall promptly reimburse SDHS for such costs and expenses, provided the CITY has received reimbursements from FEMA. SDHS shall provide any available supporting documentation requested by the CITY for any funding or reimbursement request 9 of 20
July 16, 2024, Item #5
regarding the disaster that is made to any governmental agency. In the event FEMA determines that any such cost or expense is not eligible for reimbursement pursuant to its applicable policy, where applicable, Contractor shall reimburse the City for an amount previously paid to Contractor by City as reimbursement for such disallowed costs or expenses. SDHS may also bill for disaster response such as deployment of the Specialized Disaster Response Emergency Team, large and small animal evacuation, and large and small animal sheltering if the CITY has requested assistance.
12. TERM AND TERMINATION.
12.1. Term. The term of this Agreement shall be for the period of thirty-six (36) months commencing on July 1, 2024 and terminating on June 30, 2027.

In the event a longer notice or cure period is required by applicable law, the cure period specified in this section or the effective date of termination shall conform to, but not exceed, such requirement.
12.6. Compensation Payable Upon Termination. In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to either Section 13.3 or 13.4, so long as SDHS has been providing the services specified herein, SDHS shall be entitled to receive the compensation and fees accrued through the effective date of termination.

A retired person whose employment without reinstatement is authorized by this section shall acquire no service credit or retirement rights under this section with respect to the employment unless he or she reinstates from retirement.
(e) (1) Notwithstanding subdivision (c), any retired person shall not be eligible to serve or be employed by a public employer if, during the 12-month period prior to an appointment described in this section, the retired person received any unemployment insurance compensation arising out of prior employment subject to this section with a public employer. A retiree shall certify in writing to the employer upon accepting an offer of employment that he or she is in compliance with this requirement.
(2) A retired person who accepts an appointment after receiving unemployment insurance compensation as described in this subdivision shall terminate that employment on the last day of the current pay period and shall not be eligible for reappointment subject to this section for a period of 12 months following the last day of employment. (f) A retired person shall not be eligible to be employed pursuant to this section for a period of 180 days following the date of retirement unless he or she meets one of the following conditions:
(1) The employer certifies the nature of the employment and that the appointment is necessary to fill a critically needed position before 180 days have passed and the appointment has been approved by the governing body of the employer in a public meeting.

CITY COUNCIL
Second Extension of the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Citywide Striping Project Contract with Statewide Stripes, Inc., Bid No. 22-012, Appropriation of Additional Funds, and Determination the Project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25 Citywide Striping project consists of replacement of traffic striping, thermoplastic legends and markings, and refreshing of painted curbs within pavement management area Zone 7, along with refreshing traffic striping in other zones on an as-needed basis. On June 21, 2022, the FY 2022-23 Citywide Striping project was awarded to Statewide Stripes, Inc. The contract includes a provision allowing for the contract to be extended. This is the second of two allowable extensions.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended the City Council:
1) Approve the Second Extension of the FY 2022-23 Citywide Striping project contract for the FY 2024- 25 Citywide Striping project to Statewide Stripes, Inc., in the amount of $516,520.00 and authorize the City Manager to execute the contract (Attachment A); 2) Appropriate $321,520.00 in Gas Tax Fund (2110) revenues to the FY 2024-25 Citywide Striping project (ST030); and
3) Make a determination the project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Discussion:
Statewide Stripes, Inc., successfully executed and completed both the FY 2022-23 Citywide Striping project and the FY 2023-24 Citywide Striping project. For this second and final extension to the contract, new unit prices were submitted as required by the contract documents and have been reviewed and accepted by staff. The new unit prices remain competitive and within the expected escalation rates. All other provisions for the FY 2022-23 Citywide Striping contract will remain in effect. 1 of 5
July 16, 2024, Item #6
The City is divided into eight pavement maintenance zones that are maintained on a rotating annual schedule. The scope of this year's project includes replacement of traffic striping and markings on public streets and refreshing of painted curbs within pavement management area Zone 7 (Attachment B). The work will be performed on arterial and collector streets in the South Poway Business Park. This work has been coordinated with the FY 2024-25 Street Maintenance (slurry seal) project also occurring in Zone 7, which will place slurry seal treatments on public streets. The Citywide Striping project will occur after completion of the slurry seal project.
Environmental Review:
The proposed striping of existing City streets with the FY 2024-25 Citywide Striping project is Categorically Exempt from the CEQA as a Class 1 Categorical Exemption, pursuant to Section 15301 (c) of the CEQA Guidelines, in that the project involves maintenance of existing streets with no expansion of use.
Fiscal Impact:
Funds totaling $320,000.00 are available in the FY 2024-25 Citywide Striping (ST030) project budget.
With the recommended additional appropriation in the amount of $321,520.00 from the Gas Tax Fund (2110), the revised project budget of $641,520.00 will cover the cost of the construction contract, construction contingency allowance, and any additional as-needed striping work in the City for the remainder of the fiscal year.
Public Notification:
None.

CITY COUNCIL
Award of Contract to AOS Inc., dba Superior Roofing for the Poway Center for the Performing Arts Roof Replacement Project, Bid No. 24-009, and Determination the Project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act On July 18, 2023, the City Council approved the contract with Sillman Wright Architects to design a complete set of plans for a multi-year phased rehabilitation project for the Poway Center for the Performing Arts (PCPA). The first year construction project (Phase 1) includes the replacement of the PCPA roof. This action will award a construction contract to AOS Inc., to remove the existing ballast roof, which has outlived it's useful life, and replace it with a new membrane roofing system.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended the City Council:
1) Award the contract for the Poway Center for the Performing Arts Roof Replacement project to AOS Inc., dba Superior Roofing, in the amount of $1,097,990.00 and authorize the City Manager to execute the contract (Attachment A); and
2) Make a determination the project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Discussion:
The PCPA is a state-of-the-art professional theater, which opened in May 1990, with a seating capacity of 797. The PCPA was designed for professional and student performances ranging from major plays and concerts to appearances by individual artists. The PCPA multi-year phased project is the first comprehensive maintenance program to replace much of the mechanical, plumbing, and electrical equipment in the facility as well as replace deteriorated interior finishes and roofing system. At this point in the building's lifespan, most of the equipment has outlived its standard useful life and should be replaced, including the roof system, which has exhibited deterioration beyond repair.
On July 18, 2023, the City Council approved the design contract with Sillman Wright Architects to 1 of 12
July 16, 2024, Item #7
design
a
complete
set
of
plans
for
a
multi-year
phased
construction
project
for
the
PCPA.
The
design
plans
are
nearly
complete
and
will
be
submitted
to
the
Division
of
State
Architect
(DSA)
for
review
in
July
2024
. The
DSA
is
the
Building
Code
authority
for
buildings
located
on
school sites
. DSA
review
is
required
since
the
PCPA
is
a
City
building
located
on
the
campus
of
Poway
High
School.
However,
the
design
package
will
not
include
the
roof
replacement
since
re-roofing
with
in-kind
roof
or
with
light
weight
material
is
exempt
from
DSA
review.
The
PCPA
Roof
Replacement
project
was
therefore
prioritized
as
Phase
1 construction
while
the
remaining
plans
are
under
DSA
review
.

Variance (VAR) 24-0001; a Request to Allow an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) to Observe a Reduced Front Yard Setback on Property Located at 14906 Espola Road APN: 321-020-40
The applicant is requesting a variance to allow an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) located at 14906 Espola Road to observe an approximate 24-foot and four-inch front yard setback when 30 feet is required. The required findings to support the Variance can be made based on unique circumstances applicable to the property.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended the City Council take public input, close the public hearing, and adopt the Resolution (Attachment A).
Discussion:
The applicant is Abel Gregorio and the property owners are Timothy Rogers and Eileen Rogers Rodriguez. The project site is located south of Durhullen Drive on the west side of Espola Road, and is zoned Residential Single Family-2 (RS-2) as shown in Attachment B. The project site is approximately
0.56 acres and is generally flat except for a steep slope east of the existing Single-Family Residence.
The project site is surrounded by residential homes in the RS-2 zone and Rural Residential-C (RR-C) zone.
The applicant applied for a building permit to construct a 1,025 square-foot ADU. Upon application review, staff determined the proposed location of the ADU encroaches approximately five feet eight inches into the front yard setback. The subject property is considered a corner lot located on the west side of Espola Road and immediately north of a private road. The eastern property line abuts Espola Road and is constrained by an access easement granted to the City for the Espola Road Improvement project, which encroaches into the subject property by approximately 12 feet. Per the Poway Municipal Code (PMC), on a corner lot, the front lot line is the shorter property line abutting a street making the eastern property line that abuts Espola Road, the front yard. Furthermore, on a private 1 of 13
July 16, 2024, Item #8
street or easement, the front lot line shall be designated as the edge of the easement. The proposed location of the ADU is 24 feet four-inches from the edge of the easement off Espola Road and would encroach into the required front yard setback by five feet eight-inches as shown in Attachment C.
Section 17.50.070 of the PMC contains a provision whereby the City Council can allow a variance from the terms of the Zoning Code because of special circumstances applicable to the property, which makes the strict application of the Code burdensome and restricts property rights enjoyed by others in the surrounding neighborhood. These special circumstances are due to the fact the eastern portion of the property is constrained by an easement granted to the City for the Espola Road Improvement project. Therefore, the development of the site is considerably constrained, limiting the full use of the property. Due to the constraint, the ADU is encroaching into the required front yard setback.
If the 12-foot easement for Es po la Road Improvement project did not exisit, the ADU would meet the front yard setback. The Espola Road Improvement project did not utilize or necessitate the 12-foot easement. The City cannot vacate the 12-foot easement because it would impact other properties along Espola Road. For the reasons above, staff supports the request to allow the ADU to observe a reduced front yard setback as requested. The required findings to grant the Variance can be found in the attached Resolution.
Environmental Review:
The project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as a Class 5 Categorical Exemption, pursuant to section 15305(a) of the CEQA Guidelines, in that the project involves a minor alteration in land use limitations.
Fiscal Impact:
None
Public Notification:
A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Poway News Chieftain on July 4, 2024. A public notice was mailed to property owners and occupants located within 500 feet of the project site.

RESOLUTION NO. 24-
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
POWAY, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING VARIANCE 24-0001 TO
ALLOW AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT TO OBSERVE A
REDUCED FRONT YARD SETBACK (ASSESSOR'S PARCEL
NUMBER 321-020-40)
WHEREAS, Variance (VAR) 24-0001; Abel Gregorio, Applicant, and Timothy Rogers and Eileen Rogers-Rodriguez Family 2018, Owner, is a request to allow an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) located at 14906 Espola Road to observe a 24-foot eight-inch front yard setback, when 30 feet is required in the Residential SingleFamily-2 (RS-2) zone; WHEREAS, on July 16, 2024, the City Council held a duly advertised public hearing to solicit comments from the public, both for and against, relative to this application; WHEREAS, the City Council has read and considered the agenda report for the proposed Project, including the attachments, and has considered other evidence presented at the public hearing; and
WHEREAS, Section 17.50.070 of the Poway Municipal Code (PMC) establishes findings required for granting a Variance.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Poway as follows:
SECTION 1: The project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as a Class 5 Categorical Exemption, pursuant to section 15305(a) of the CEQA Guidelines, in that the project involves a minor alteration in land use limitations.
SECTION 2: The findings, in accordance with 17.50.070 of the PMC, to approved VAR 24-0001, are made as follows:
A. That there are special circumstances applicable to the property (size, shape, topography, location or surroundings), or the intended use of the property, and because of this, the strict application of the zoning development ordinance deprives the property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity under identical zoning classification in that the property is constrained by the Espola Road Improvement project which dedicated 12 feet to the City.
B. Granting the Variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone, and denied to the property for which the Variance is sought because the lot is constrained by an easement granted by the property owners to the City of Poway (the City) for the Espola Road Improvement project.
C. Granting the Variance would not be materially detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare in the vicinity in that there are adequate public services available in the area to serve the proposed ADU.
D. The granting of this Variance does not constitute a special privilege that is inconsistent with the limitation upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in that the surrounding 3 of 13 ATTACHMENT A

properties
have
been
developed
with

homes
and

Resolution

Granting
the
Variance
would
not
allow
a
use
or
activity
not
otherwise
expressly
authorized
in
that
an
ADU
is
permitted
in
the
RS-2
zone.
F.
The
proposed
Variance
will
be
compatible
with
the
City's
General
Plan
because
the
ADU
will
match
the
colors
of
the
existing
single-family
residence,
serve
the
needs
to
the

and
will
not

CITY COUNCIL
Resolution Establishing Assessments for Poway Landscape Maintenance District 19-1 to be Collected on the San Diego County Property Tax Roll for Fiscal Year 2024-25 On June 4, 2024, City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-023 declaring intention to levy and collect assessments within Landscape Maintenance District (LMD) 19-1 and set public hearing for July 16, 2024. City Council is to consider approval of a resolution (Attachment A) authorizing the levy and collection of assessments for each affected parcel within LMD 19-1 for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25. FY 2024-25 assessment rate is proposed to increase from FY 2023-24's assessment rate by 3 percent to $953.54 per benefit unit per year, based on a voter-approved inflater cap on the annual change in the San Diego-Carlsbad Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI). Landscape maintenance service level will remain at level A and may be subject to adjustments depending on frequency and magnitude of unplanned events.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended City Council take public input, close the public hearing and adopt the Resolution.
Discussion:
LMD 19-1 was formed on May 21, 2019, after a ballot measure was proposed and passed, to reorganize LMD 87-1 by detaching 327 commercial properties and forming a new landscape maintenance district (LMD 19-1 ). Existing residential development areas within LMD 87-1 remained as LMD 87-1. A map showing LMD 19-1 's boundaries is included as Attachment B.
LMD 19-1 includes the following non-residential (commercial) developments:
TRACT PROJECT NAME

TTM 87-13 Parkway Business Center I and II

TPM 06-04 Slough Poway 11, LLC
FY 2024-25 assessment rate is proposed to increase from the FY 2023-24 assessment rate by 3 percent to $953.54 per benefit unit per year. LMD 19-1 includes a voter-approved inflater which helps revenues keep pace with inflation. Annual assessment rate increases are capped at 3 percent of the annual change in CPI. Because projected expenditures are exceeding revenues, an i_ncrease of 3 percent is requested at this time. Landscape maintenance service level will remain at level A. Service level A consists of performing landscape maintenance (e.g., irrigation inspection, removal of trash and debris, trimming of shrubs, fertilizing, mowing, edging, pruning, and sweeping) for respective areas within LMD 19-1 on a weekly basis.
City Council's approved FY 2024-25 Engineer's Report is on file in the Office of the City Clerk, 13325 Civic Center Drive and the Department of Public Works, 14467 Lake Poway Road, Poway, California.
Environmental Review:
This action is not subject to review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Fiscal Impact:
LMD 19-1 includes a voter-approved inflater which helps revenues keep pace with inflation. The assessment rate for FY 2024-25 is capped at 3 percent or the annual change in the CPI, whichever is less. FY 2024-25 LMD 19-1 assessment rate will increase from FY 2023-24's rate of $925.77 to $953.54 per benefit unit per year. Revenue for LMD 19-1 is comprised of $833,763 from assessments, $9,920 in estimated interest earnings, $3,266 in miscellaneous revenue and $220,225 in General Fund contributions. Estimated revenues and the planned use of operating reserves are sufficient to cover planned service levels. Service levels may be subject to adjustments depending on frequency and magnitude of unplanned events.
Public Notification:
A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Poway News Chieftain on Thursday, June 20, 2024.
Pursuant to Government Section 53753, all public notification requirements have been met. No responses have been received regarding proposed assessments at the time this report was written.

CITY COUNCIL
Resolution Establishing Assessments for Poway Landscape Maintenance District 83-1 to be Collected on the San Diego County Property Tax Roll for Fiscal Year 2024-25 On June 4, 2024, City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-024 declaring intention to levy and collect assessments within Landscape Maintenance District (LMD) 83-1 and set the public hearing for July 16, 2024. City Council is to consider approval of a resolution (Attachment A) authorizing the levy and collection of assessments for each affected parcel within LMD 83-1 for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25. FY 2024-25 assessment rates for LMD 83-1 Zone A, Zone B and Zone C are proposed to remain unchanged at the FY 2023-24 rates of $118.48, $235.75 and $496.16 per benefit unit year, respectively.
Landscape maintenance service levels for Zones A, Band C will remain at level C and may be subject to adjustments depending on frequency and magnitude of unplanned events.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended City Council take public input, close the public hearing and adopt the Resolution.
Discussion:
LMD 83-1 was formed on June 14, 1983, to maintain landscape improvements required as conditions of approval for various subdivisions included within the boundaries of LMD 83-1. A map showing LMD 83-1 's boundaries is included as Attachment B. Each subdivision and/or development listed below was required to annex into the LMD 83-1 as a condition of property development either through final map process or by Council Resolution.

In 2018, the City initiated proceedings to form a proposed landscape maintenance district (referred to as LMD 18-1) within the boundaries of the existing LMD 83-1. Proposed LMD 18-1 would have added properties that previously were not assessed and established different benefit zones, and increased assessments currently imposed on properties in the existing LMD 83-1. Proposed LMD 18-1 was balloted for an increase in assessments with annual cost indexing based on the San Diego-Carlsbad Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI), not to exceed 3 percent. Proposed LMD 18-1 had a majority protest for the increase, and consequently failed to pass the ballot and was not formed.
FY 2024-25 assessments for Zone A are proposed to remain unchanged at the FY 2023-24 rate of $118.48 per benefit unit per year; Zone B FY 2024-25 assessments are proposed to remain at the FY 2023-24 rate of $235.75 per benefit unit per year; and Zone C FY 2024-25 assessments are proposed to remain at the FY 2023-24 rate of $496.16 per benefit unit per year.
LMD 83-1 currently has no approved escalation factor for increasing the maximum assessment rate.
Failure of an assessment increase by ballot for LMD 83-1 in FY 2017-18, led to a reduction in maintenance services. Landscape maintenance service levels for Zones A, Band C will remain at level C and may be subject to further adjustments to align with assessment revenue and to accommodate unexpected repair needs that arise. Service level C consists of performing landscape maintenance (e.g., irrigation inspection, removal of trash and debris, trimming of shrubs, fertilizing, mowing, edging, pruning, and sweeping) for respective areas within LMD 83-1 on a monthly basis. 2 of 6

CITY COUNCIL
Resolution Establishing Assessments for Poway Landscape Maintenance District 86-1 to be Collected on the San Diego County Property Tax Roll for Fiscal Year 2024-25 On June 4, 2024, City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-025 declaring intention to levy and collect assessments within Landscape Maintenance District (LMD) 86-1 and set the public hearing for July 16, 2024. City Council is to consider approval of a resolution (Attachment A) authorizing the levy and collection of assessments for each affected parcel within LMD 86-1 for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25. FY 2024-25 assessment rate for LMD 86-1 Zone A is proposed to remain at the FY 2023-24 rate of $243.04 per benefit unit per year. Landscape maintenance service level for Zone A will remain at level Band may be subject to adjustments depending on frequency and magnitude of unplanned events. Within Zone A, the Green Valley Estates Homeowners Association currently has an agreement with the City to maintain rights-of-way bordering development along Lake Poway Road. Additionally, one non residential parcel (which makes up Zone B with current service level A), also has an agreement with the City to maintain landscape improvements along the corner of Espola Road and Twin Peaks Road.
As such, these parcels will not be levied.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended City Council take public input, close the public hearing and adopt the Resolution.
Discussion:
LMD 86-1 was formed on June 12, 1986, to maintain landscape improvements required as conditions of approval for various subdivisions included within the boundaries of LMD 86-1. A map showing LMD 86-1 's boundaries is included as Attachment B. Each subdivision and/or development listed below was required to annex into LMD 86-1 as a condition of property development either through the final map process or by Council Resolution.

In
2018,
the
City
initiated
proceedings
to
form
a
proposed
landscape
maintenance
district
(referred
to
as
LMD
18-2)
within
the
boundaries
of
existing
LMD
86-1.
Proposed
LMD
18-2,
would
have
added
properties
that
previously
were
not
assessed
and
established
different
benefit
zones,
and
increased
assessments
currently
imposed
on
properties
in
existing
LMD
86-1.
Proposed
LMD
18-2
was
balloted
for
an
increase
in
assessments
with
annual
cost
indexing
based
on
the
San
Diego-Carlsbad
Consumer
Price
Index
for
All
Urban
Consumers
(CPI),
not
to
exceed
3 percent.
Proposed
LMD
18-2
had
a majority
protest
for
the
increase
and
consequently
failed
to
pass
the
ballot
and
was
not
formed.
FY
2024-25
assessments
for
Zone
A
are
proposed
to
remain
unchanged
at
FY
2023-24
rates
of
$243.04
per
year
per
benefit
unit
per
year.
LMD
86-1
currently
has
no
approved
escalation
factor
for
increasing
the
maximum
assessment
rate.
Failure
of
an
assessment
increase
by
ballot
for
LMD
86-1
in
FY
2017-18,
led
to
a
reduction
in
maintenance
services.
Landscape
maintenance
service
level
will
remain
at
level
B.
Service
level
B
consists
of
performing
landscape
maintenance
(e.g.,
irrigation
inspection,
removal
of
trash
and
debris,
trimming
of
shrubs,
fertilizing,
mowing,
edging,
pruning,
and
sweeping)
for
respective
areas
within
Zone
A
on
a
bi-monthly
basis.
Services
may
continue
to
be
reduced
to
align
with
assessment
revenue
2of6
July 16, 2024, Item #11
and
to
accommodate
unexpected
repair
needs
that
arise.
Notably,
with
Zone
A,
the
Green
Valley
Estates
Homeowners
Association
currently
has
an
agreement
in
place
with
the
City
to
maintain
rights
of-way
bordering
the
development
along
Lake
Poway
Road.
Therefore,
an
assessment
will
not
be
levied
for
these
parcels.
Zone
B
(non-residential)
is
comprised
of
a
single
property,
The
Church
of
Latter-Day
Saints.
Landscape
improvements
are
being
maintained
by
parcel
owners
under
terms
of
an
agreement
with
the
City.
Therefore,
an
assessment
will
not
be
levied
for
this

CITY COUNCIL
Resolution Establishing Assessments for Poway Landscape Maintenance District 86-2 to be Collected on the San Diego County Property Tax Roll for Fiscal Year 2024-25 On June 4, 2024, City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-026 declaring intention to levy and collect assessments within Landscape Maintenance District (LMD) 86-2 and set the public hearing for July 16, 2024. City Council is to consider approval of a resolution (Attachment A) authorizing the levy and collection of assessments for each affected parcel within LMD 86-2 for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25. FY 2024-25 assessment rate for LMD 86-2 Zone A is proposed to remain unchanged at the FY 2023-24 rate of $186.16 per benefit unit per year. FY 2024-25 assessment rate for LMD 86-2 Zone Bis proposed to increase from the FY 2023-24 assessment rate by 5.11 percent to $382.16 per benefit unit per year, based on the annual change in the San Diego-Carlsbad Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI). Landscape maintenance service levels for Zone A and Zone B will remain at level C and A, respectively, and may be subject to adjustments depending on the frequency and magnitude of unplanned events.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended City Council take public input, close the public hearing and adopt the Resolution.
Discussion:
LMD 86-2 was formed on May 20, 1986, to maintain landscape improvements of various subdivisions or developments included within the boundaries of LMD 86-2. A map showing LMD 86-2's boundaries is included as Attachment B. Each subdivision and/or development listed below was required to annex into LMD 86-2 as a condition of property development either through the final map process or by Council Resolution.

LMD 86-2 Zone A includes the following residential developments:

LMD 86-2 Zone B includes the following residential developments:
TRACT PROJECT NAME
TTM
CUP

06-09 (M)
Sycamore Creek
Loma Cabrillo, LLC
FY 2024-25 assessments for Zone A are proposed to remain unchanged at the FY 2023-24 rate of $186.16 per benefit unit per year; Zone B FY 2024-25 assessments are proposed to increase from $363.58 to $382.16 per benefit unit per year.
In 1998 and 2009, a ballot for an assessment increase with annual cost indexing based on the annual CPI in Zone A failed. As a result, it was necessary to reduce service levels to ensure LMD 86-2 expenses did not exceed projected revenue. Consequently, Zone A service level was reduced to level C.
Landscape maintenance service level for Zone A will remain at level C. Service level C consists of performing landscape maintenance (e.g., irrigation inspection, removal of trash and debris, trimming of shrubs, fertilizing, mowing, edging, pruning and sweeping) for respective areas within Zone A on a monthly basis.
Zone B passed the 1998 ballot allowing for the option of an annual increase based on the CPI. Because projected expenditures are exceeding revenues, an increase of 5.11 percent, the annual change in the CPI, is requested at this time for Zone B. Landscape maintenance service level for Zone B will remain at level A Service level A consists of performing landscape maintenance (e.g., irrigation inspection, removal of trash and debris, trimming of shrubs, fertilizing, mowing, edging pruning, and sweeping) for respective areas within Zone B on a weekly basis.
City Council's approved FY 2024-25 Engineer's Report is on file in the Office of the City Clerk, 13325 Civic Center Drive and the Department of Public Works, 14467 Lake Poway Road, Poway, California.
Environmental Review:
This action is not subject to review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Fiscal Impact:
LMD 86-2 Zone A does not include a voter-approved inflater which puts pressure on service levels as expenses increase over time due to inflation while revenues do not. FY 2024-25 LMD 86-2 Zone A assessment rate remains unchanged from the FY 2023-24 rate of $186.16 per benefit unit per year.
Revenue for LMD 86-2 Zone A is comprised of $20,478 from assessments, $581 in estimated interest earnings and $4,166 in General Fund contributions.
2 of6
July 16, 2024, Item #12
LMD 86-2 Zone B includes a voter-approved inflater which helps revenues keep pace with inflation.
The assessment rate for FY 2024-25 is increasing by 5.11 percent, or the annual change in the CPI. FY 2024-25 LMD 86-2 Zone B assessment rate will increase from the FY 2023-24 rate of $363.58 to $382.16 per benefit unit per year. Revenue for LMD 86-2 Zone B is comprised of $64,203 from assessments, $1,847 in estimated interest earnings and $3,740 in General Fund contributions.
Estimated revenues and the planned use of reserves in Zone Bare sufficient to cover planned service levels. Service levels may be subject to adjustments depending on frequency and magnitude of unplanned events.
Public Notification:
A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Poway News Chieftain on Thursday, June 20, 2024.
Pursuant to Government Section 53753, all public notification requirements have been met. No responses have been received regarding proposed assessments at the time this report was written.

CITY COUNCIL
Resolution Establishing Assessments for Poway Landscape Maintenance District 86-3 to be Collected on the San Diego County Property Tax Roll for Fiscal Year 2024-25 On June 4, 2024, City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-027 declaring the intention to levy and collect assessments within Landscape Maintenance District (LMD) 86-3 and set the public hearing for July 16, 2024. City Council is to consider approval of a resolution (Attachment A) authorizing the levy and collection of assessments for each affected parcel within LMD 86-3 for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25. FY 2024-25 assessment rate for LMD 86-3 Zone A is proposed to remain unchanged at the FY 2023-24 rate of $163 per benefit unit per year. FY 2024-25 assessment rate for LMD 86-3 Zone Bis proposed to increase from the FY 2023-24 assessment rate by 5.11 percent to $91.04 per benefit unit per year, based on the annual change in the San Diego-Carlsbad Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI). Landscape maintenance service levels for Zone A and Zone B will remain at level C and A, respectively, and may be subject to adjustments depending on frequency and magnitude of unplanned events.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended City Council take public input, close the public hearing and adopt the Resolution.
Discussion:
LMD 86-3 was formed on May 20, 1986, to maintain landscape improvements required as conditions of approval for the various subdivisions or developments included within the boundaries of LMD 86-
3. A map showing LMD 86-3's boundaries is included as Attachment B. Each subdivision and/or development listed below was required to annex into LMD 86-3 as a condition of property development either through the final map process or by Council Resolution.

DR 05-05 Solara Apartments
FY 2024-25 assessments for Zone A are proposed to remain unchanged at the FY 2023-24 rate of $163 per benefit unit per year; Zone B FY 2024-25 assessments are proposed to increase from $86.62 to $91.04 per benefit unit per year.
In 1998, a ballot for an assessment increase with annual cost indexing based on the annual CPI in Zone A failed. As a result, it was necessary to reduce service levels to ensure LMD 86-3 expenses did not exceed projected revenue. Consequently, Zone A service level was reduced to level C. Landscape maintenance service level for Zone A will remain at level C. Service level C consists of performing landscape maintenance (e.g., irrigation inspection, removal of trash and debris, trimming of shrubs, fertilizing, mowing, edging, pruning and sweeping) for respective areas within Zone A on a monthly basis.
Zone B passed the 1998-99 ballot allowing for the option of an annual increase based on the CPI.
Because projected expenditures are exceeding revenues, an increase of 5.11 percent, the annual change in the CPI, is requested at this time for Zone B. The landscape maintenance service level for Zone B will remain at level A. Service level A consists of performing landscape maintenance (e.g., irrigation inspection, removal of trash and debris, trimming of shrubs, fertilizing, mowing, edging pruning, and sweeping) for respective areas within Zone Bon a weekly basis.
City Council's approved FY 2024-25 Engineer's Report is on file in the Office of the City Clerk, 13325 Civic Center Drive and the Department of Public Works, 14467 Lake Poway Road, Poway, California.
Environmental Review:
This action is not subject to review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Fiscal Impact:
LMD 86-3 Zone A does not include a voter-approved inflater which puts pressure on service levels as expenses increase over time due to inflation while revenues do not. FY 2024-25 LMD 86-3 Zone A assessment remains unchanged from the FY 2023-24 rate of $163 per benefit unit per year. Revenue for LMD 86-3 Zone A is comprised of $25,917 from assessments, $878 in estimated interest earnings 2 of6
July 16, 2024, Item #13
and $1,668 in General Fund contributions.
LMD 86-3 Zone B includes a voter-approved inflater which helps revenues keep pace with inflation.
The assessment rate for FY 2024-25 is increasing by 5.11 percent, or the annual change in the CPI. FY 2024-25 LMD 86-3 Zone B assessment rate will increase from the FY 2023-24 rate of $86.62 to $91.04 per benefit unit per year. Revenue for LMD 86-3 Zone B is comprised of $19,799 from assessments, $2,158 in estimated interest earnings and $8,343 in General Fund contributions.
Estimated revenues including the planned use of reserves in Zone B are sufficient to cover planned service levels. Service levels may be subject to adjustments depending on frequency and magnitude of unplanned events.
Public Notification:
A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Poway News Chieftain on Thursday, June 20, 2024.
Pursuant to Government Section 53753, all public notification requirements have been met. No responses have been received regarding proposed assessments at the time this report was written.

On May 21, 2019, a ballot measure was proposed and passed, to reorganize LMD 87-1 to form a new landscape maintenance district (LMD 19-1) by detaching 327 commercial properties. The existing residential development areas within LMD 87-1 remained as LMD 87-1.
FY 2024-25 assessment rate is proposed to remain unchanged at the FY 2023-24 rate of $210.68 per benefit unit per year. LMD 87-1 currently has no approved escalation factor for increasing the maximum assessment rate. In FY 2021-22, service levels for landscape maintenance were reduced from a level B to a level C to align expenses with assessment revenue. For FY 2024-25, the landscape maintenance service level will remain at level C. Service level C consists of performing landscape maintenance (e.g., irrigation inspection, removal of trash and debris, trimming of shrubs, fertilizing, mowing, edging pruning and sweeping) for respective areas within LMD 87-1 on a monthly basis.
Services may continue to be reduced to align with assessment revenue and to accommodate unexpected repair needs that arise.

Environmental Review:
This action is not subject to review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Fiscal Impact:
LMD 87-1 does not include a voter-approved inflator which puts pressure on service levels as expenses increase over time due to inflation while revenues do not. FY 2024-25 LMD 87-1 assessment rate remains unchanged from the FY 2023-24 rate of $210.68 per benefit unit per year. Revenue for LMD 87-1 is comprised of $41,293 from assessments, $1,224 in estimated interest earnings and $5,974 in General Fund contributions. Estimated revenues are sufficient to cover planned service levels. Service levels may be subject to adjustments depending on the frequency and magnitude of unplanned events.
Public Notification:

CITY COUNCIL
Resolution Establishing Assessments for Poway Lighting District to be Collected on the San Diego County Property Tax Roll for Fiscal Year 2024-25 On June 4, 2024, City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-029 declaring intention to levy and collect assessments within the Poway Lighting District (District) and set the public hearing for July 16, 2024.
City Council is to consider the approval of a resolution (Attachment A) authorizing the levy and collection of assessments for each affected parcel within the District for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25. FY 2024-25 assessment rates for District's Zone A, Zone Band Zone Care proposed to remain unchanged at the FY 2023-24 rates of $15, $3.75 and $13.58 per benefit unit per year, respectively.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended City Council take public input, close the public hearing and adopt the Resolution.
Discussion:
The District was formed by the City Council on May 12, 1986. There are 16,478 parcels in the City of Poway. The District currently assesses 15,035 of these parcels. The benefit units derived from these assessable parcels total 22,163 for Zone A, 3,898 for Zone Band 25,970 for Zone C.
Zone A parcels have street lighting within their immediate vicinity and share equitably in benefit from major arterial street lighting. Zone A assessments are based on $15 per benefit unit per year for improved parcels and $7.50 per benefit unit per year for vacant, buildable parcels.
Zone B parcels do not have benefit of immediate street lighting but share equitably in benefit from major arterial street lighting. Zone B assessments are based on $3.75 per benefit unit per year for improved parcels. Because the San Diego County Assessor (County) lists funds in even amounts on county tax statements, the benefit unit assessment will be $3.75. Vacant parcels are proposed to be assessed at a partial rate of $1.88 (50 percent of $3.75) per benefit unit. 1 of 5
July 16, 2024, Item #15
Zone C assessments, which fund the operation and maintenance of traffic signals, safety lights, flashing beacons, and lighted street name signs within the City boundaries, are collected from all accessible parcels in Poway. Zone C assessments are based on $13.58 per benefit unit per year for improved parcels and $6.80 per benefit unit per year for vacant, buildable parcels. Public parks, facilities and parking lots are not included in the District.
The FY 2024-25 assessments are based on the District's operations, maintenance, administration and capital replacement costs. Assessments are proposed to remain unchanged from the FY 2023-24 rates. Total revenues are estimated to be $1,533,670, which includes $332,440 in Zone A assessments, $14,586 in Zone B assessments, $352,663 in Zone C assessments, the annual ad valorem tax (general tax contributions), City General Benefit contribution, and estimated interest earnings.
In FY 2019-20, approximately 3,300 low pressure sodium (LPS) lights were converted to light emitting diodes (LEDs). Since the LED conversion, the District has saved on energy costs compared to the FY 2019-20 budget. In 2021-22 energy costs for LPS were incorporated. Beginning in FY 2019-20, $250,000 will be requested each year to replace aging signalized intersections. In FY 2024-25, the District will continue signalized intersection equipment replacement. Each fiscal year, the capital improvement project fund commitments will be re-evaluated to ensure available funding for ongoing capital improvements.
The City Council's approved FY 2024-25 Engineer's Report is on file in the Office of the City Clerk, 13325 Civic Center Drive and the Department of Public Works, 14467 Lake Poway Road, Poway, California.
Environmental Review:
This action is not subject to review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Fiscal Impact:
The District does not include a voter-approved inflater which puts pressure on service levels as expenses increase over time due to inflation while revenues do not. FY 2024-25 District Zone A, Zone B and Zone C assessment rates remain unchanged from the FY 2023-24 rate of $15.00, $3.75 and $13.58 per benefit unit per year, respectively. Revenue for the District is comprised of $699,689 from assessments, $73,962 in estimated interest earnings, $560,493 in general tax contributions, $41,586 in miscellaneous revenue and $157,940 in General Fund contributions. Estimated revenues are sufficient to cover ongoing maintenance and capital improvement projects.
Public Notification:
A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Poway News Chieftain on Thursday, June 20, 2024.
Pursuant to Government Section 53753, all public notification requirements have been met. No responses have been received regarding proposed assessments at the time this report was written.

CITY COUNCIL
Resolution Renewing the Fire Protection Special Tax to be Collected on the Property Tax Roll for Fiscal Year 2024-25
Consideration of a Resolution renewing the Fire Protection Special Tax to be collected on the property tax roll for Fiscal Year 2024-25.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended the City Council take public input, close the public hearing, and adopt the Resolution.
Discussion:
Annually, the City collects various taxes, fees, charges, and assessments on the property tax roll by following the San Diego County Auditor and Controller's procedures established for such collections.
The composition of the taxes, fees, charges, and assessments varies slightly from year to year as the time span for the assessments expires or new areas and charges are added. The taxes, fees, charges, and assessments include: Fire Protection Special Tax; Weed Abatement; Lighting and Landscape Maintenance District Assessments; and Nuisance Abatement.
To collect these items on the property tax roll, it is necessary to adopt a Resolution setting the charges and to authorize staff to transmit the information to the San Diego County Clerk of the Board of Supervisors, and Auditor and Controller.
The following narrative explains the Fire Protection Special Tax to be collected via the San Diego County property tax roll. A parcel-specific listing of the amounts to be collected is on file in the City Clerk's Office.
1 of 3
July 16, 2024, Item #16
Fire Protection Special Tax -Poway voters approved the Fire Protection Special Tax on June 17, 1997, which was codified as Poway Municipal Code Chapter 3.20 via Ordinance No. 476. As a special tax, the Fire Protection Special Tax can only be used to support fire protection services, including but not limited to the acquisition of equipment and the payment of personnel costs. To calculate the tax for each property for Fiscal Year 2024-25, the Fire Department assigned 207,709 points to 15,074 parcels.
The tax rate of $3.12 per point is unchanged from Fiscal Year 2023-24. The estimated Fire Protection Special Tax to be collected for Fiscal Year 2024-25 is $648,039. For property tax roll purposes, a not to-exceed amount of $700,000 is authorized by the Resolution (Attachment A). The higher amount is used in the Resolution to ensure that if further additions to the property tax roll are made, the authorized amount will not be exceeded. The amount per parcel is rounded to the nearest even whole cent. Parcels that are not listed on the property tax roll will be billed directly by the City.
Environmental Review:
This action is not subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Fiscal Impact:
The Fire Protection Special Tax helps support fire protection services provided by the Fire Department.
The Fire Department's total operating budget for Fiscal Year 2024-25 is $16,071,627 while the estimated Fire Protection Special Tax to be collected is $648,038, or 4% of the total budget. While the revenue can be used to offset all fire protection services, this revenue is specifically being used toward offsetting Fire Suppression division operating costs of $13,515,686 for Fiscal Year 2024-25.
Expenses exceed the revenues to be collected through the Fire Protection Special Tax because the voter approved tax rate adopted in 1997 did not include an inflater. The Fire Protection Special Tax revenue estimate for Fiscal Year 1997-98 was $535,000 which helped support a Fiscal Year 1997-98 Fire Department budget of $3,193,860, or 16.75% of the total budget.
In order for taxes, fees, and assessments to be collected on the property tax roll for Fiscal Year 2024- 25, it is necessary for the City Council to adopt a Resolution authorizing this action.

CITY COUNCIL
2023 Weed and Nuisance Abatement Charges to be Collected on the County of San Diego Tax Assessor's Roll for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25
Annually, funds are allocated for weed and nuisance abatement services on City-owned parcels and privately-owned properties identified in the Weed Abatement Program (WAP). Properties identified in the WAP may elect to abate their properties themselves or request the City to complete the abatement for a fee. Fees incurred by the City are passed onto the property owner and are paid by invoice or levied against the property's tax bill as a fixed charged assessment. The City Council must approve the list of parcels assessed prior to their inclusion on the County of San Diego Tax Assessor's Roll.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended the City Council take public input, close the public hearing, and adopt the Resolution (Attachment A) approving the 2023 Weed and Nuisance Abatement charges to be collected on the County of San Diego Tax Assessor's Roll for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25.
Discussion:
Weed Abatement and Vegetation Management are effective fire prevention and mitigation methods to help protect property. This work is completed for both city-owned and private properties through a third party contractor. For private properties, the City notices property owners within the WAP, by letter (Attachment B), of their annual property maintenance requirements in specific vegetation abatement areas. Each property owner is required to mow or weed-whip re-growth of weeds, remove dead trees, shrubs, or other material that pose a significant fire hazard.
Property owners may perform the maintenance themselves or authorize the City to complete the work on their behalf. If the City completes the work, the property owner may pay the City for the work completed or may opt to have the costs incurred assessed against the property's tax bill as a fixed charged assessment. The amount charged is placed on an owner's property tax bill the following tax assessment year.

July 16, 2024, Item #17
In the event a duly noticed property owner fails to complete the mandatory abatement, a Notice of Violation is issued. Overgrown vegetation is addressed, by the City, through the abatement procedure outlined in Poway Municipal Code Chapter 8.76.
For program year 2023, the City completed abatement work on 31 City-owned properties and 22 private properties. Of those private properties, 14 property owners elected to have the costs, plus a $175.00 administrative fee, assessed on their property tax bill for FY 2024-25. A list of the 14 privately owned properties is included as Exhibit A of the proposed Resolution.
Environmental Review:
This item is not a Project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and is therefore not subject to CEQA review.
Fiscal Impact:
The Resolution authorizes the reimbursement to the City for any costs incurred for weed and nuisance abatement services from property owners through fix charged assessments on the County of San Diego Tax Assessor's Roll. Each parcel abated is assessed an administrative fee of $175.00. The City will place $57,028.32 on the FY 2024-25 tax roll to recover the cost of the property abatements.
Public Notification:
A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Poway News Chieftain on Thursday, July 4, 2024 and mailed to the 14 property owners identified in Exhibit A of Attachment B.
