ae : a= . . MEMORANDUM “-Aee, fre contrat CITY OF POWAY treatment - brem Ana seuncr| TO: James L. Bowersox, City Manager Reba Wright-Quastler, Director of Planning Services Steve Streeter, Assistant Director of Planning Services | FROM: Jim Nessel, Senior Planner An DATE: June 2, 1993 SUBJECT: Draft Regional Conservation Planning Maps Concerning Bruce Tabb’s Old Coach Golf Estates Project On April 23, 1993 Bruce Tabb contacted the Planning Services Department and lambasted me for not making certain that all previous vegetation clearing on his site was accurately depicted on the subject draft maps. Mr. Tabb accused me of not acting in his best interest or appropriately representing him as a property owner in Poway. Mr. Tabb’s and sophomoric remarks concerned me as I was certain that all parties responsible for the preparation of the draft maps were given Mr. Tabb’s January 1991 limits of clearing plan with specific instructions to digitize the clearing plan and reflect such in the draft maps. I indicated to Mr. Tabb that this was properly accomplished since a recent review of vegetation maps reflected all areas previously cleared. Mr. Tabb insisted that I was wrong since he just viewed draft maps at SANDAG showing his entire site as high quality vegetation and that his site should be shown as low quality instead. I responded that as soon as I returned from vacation I would work with Mr. Tabb to help clarify and resolve his concerns. Mr. Tabb could not recall exactly what SANDAG map he looked at, and I told him it may have been a historic vegetation map of the region and suggested that all map data layers prepared for the habitat evaluation model be reviewed. During the phone conversation, Mayor Higginson got on the line in Mr. Tabb’s office and encouraged me to help Mr. Tabb with his problem. On May 11 I returned from vacation and called Mr. Tabb’s office. Mr. Tabb contacted me on May 13 and told me that he had reviewed the other maps, as suggested, and found that they were as accurate as possible, given that the clearing on his site, to date, is much Gifferent than his original (and only) clearing plan approved by the City in early 1991, Mr. Tabb further indicated that he felt the differences were not significant enough to cause him * to "make waves." Mr. Tabb mentioned that his limits of clearing plan, somehow, must have been given to the right people. : NOTE: Mr. Tabb says that he has cleared his site three times;however, staff is only aware of two occasions, By the way, Mr. Tabb did not apologize to me for his rash behavior. a oO POAY B.
