Currently, Poinsettia Lane terminates approximately 1300’ west of Paseo Escuela. The Bressi Ranch project and Villages of La Costa project extending Poinsettia Lane from its current terminus to El Camino Real will be complete in the first half of 2005. The traffic signal is required to provide vehicular and pedestrian ingresdegress to Carillo Elementary School. Staff recommends that the traffic signal be installed and energized before the extension of Poinsettia Lane is complete. A traffic signal at this location was not made a condition of the master plan of the adjacent planning area projects, therefore staff submitted a request for the construction of a traffic signal at Poinsettia Lane and Paseo Escuela to be included in the 2003/2004 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The 2003/2004 Capital Improvement Program was adopted by City Council on June 17, 2003 and funding for this project is available in the Gas Tax fund. Total Amount Appropriated for this Project ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: $210,000 This project is a Class 1 categorical exemption (minor alteration of existing structure or facilities) and is, therefore, exempt from the environmental review process under provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Section 15301(f). A Notice of Exemption will be issued by the Planning Director after this Authorization to Advertise is approved. FISCAL IMPACT: There are sufficient funds appropriated in the Gas Tax fund to complete this traffic signal project. EXHIBITS: 1. Location Map. 2.
