I, Gall Sanchez, Planning Commission Secretary of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, or my designee, hereby certify that a true, accurate copy of the fo~'egoing agenda was posted on May 3, 2001, at least 72 hours prior to the meeting per Government Code Section 54964.2 at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga. / Page 2 Vicinity Map Planning Commission May 9, 2001 Hillside Banyan 19th/210 Fw ~aseline I % ' Foothill I I I A 4th ~> City of Rancho Cucamonga CITY HALL ~'~ N THE C I T Y OF DATE: May 9, 2001 TO: Chairman and Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Dan James, Senior Civil Engineer BY: Joe Stofa, Jr., Associate Engineer SUBJECT: VACATION OF EXCESS PORTION OF CENTER AVENUE (V-176) - METAL COATERS OF CALIFORNIA - A reouest to vacate excess portion of Center Avenue between 7TM AND 6TM Streets - APN: 209- 262-13 BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS: On July 6, 2000, the City Planner approved Minor Development Review 00-19 to construct a warehouse addition at 9123 Center Avenue. In conjunction with this processing, Metal Coaters of California has requested the vacation of the excess portion of Center Avenue between 7th and 8th Street. The original subdivision map (1887) created 80-foot wide street rights-of-way. Present standards only require 66-foot wide streets. In this ama, the public improvements exist within a 66-foot street area, thus the extra seven feet on the project side of the street is excess and should be vacated and added to the front yard. The vacation is consistent with the goals and objectives of the circulation element of the General Plan. The streets in this area of the City are also not included or required as "community travel mutes" of the General Plan. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission make the finding through minute action that the proposed vacations conform to the City's General Plan. This finding will be forwarded to the City Council for further processing and final approval.

Related files: Landmark Designation DRC2001-00119 and Landmark Alteration Permit DRC2001-00116. General: A. Historical Si.qnificance: The Isle House dates back to the founding of the Etiwanda Colony in the early 1880s by George and William Chaffey. The Chaffeys formed a partnership for the purpose of developing an irrigated agricultural colony. They then divided their holdings into 10-acre lots and named the new colony Etiwanda after a Lake Michigan Indian Chief. Sales began in the spring of 1882 and a preliminary subdivision map was filed on December 22, 1882. The colony was the site of many "firsts" in Southern California history including: the site of the first development of hydro-electric current, the first house and community to be lighted with electricity, the first successful mutual water company, the first irrigation project to use underground concrete pipe, and the first long distance telephone. All were the results of George Chaffey. The structure presently known as the Isle House was built for Annie and Emma Chaffey, George and William's mother and sister. This house was also one of the first to be wired for electricity. After the Chaffeys moved to Australia, the house passed through many owners, but finally came into the possession of the James C. Isle family. On February 20, 1883, Mr. Isle moved the house, using log rollers to the corner of Highland and Etiwanda, to what is now the Route 30 freeway. J. C. Isle continued to actively farm the acreage he acquired, as did his descendants. By 1951, J. C.'s grandson, A. W. McGuire, was no longer solely dependant upon farming for income and became the first constable of Etiwanda. ITE~I B PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2001-00115 - ISLE HOUSE May 9, 2001 Page 2 B. Landmark Desi.qnation: Staff recommended Landmark Status for the Isle House to the Historic Preservation Commission at their regularly scheduled meeting on May 9, 2001. If the Historic Preservation Commission recommends approval of the Landmark status of the Isle House, the City Council will make the final determination. ANALYSIS A. PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: The house is a 1,768 square foot structure situated on a parcel of land approximately .5 acre in size and rectangular in shape. The site is relatively flat. Low-Medium density housing units (4-8 dwellings per acre) are located to the north and west of the subject site. To the south and east of the site, the Isle House joins a neighborhood of other historic structures, such as the Chaffey-Garcia House, Etiwanda Congregational Church, and the Pacific Electric Railway. To the east of the site is the Etiwanda Depot. The applicant is proposing to utilize the Isle House, a Historic Landmark, as a community building. The building will host events promoting the history of the Etiwanda area. These events will be hosted and staffed by members of the Etiwanda Historical Society. Currently the structure is undergoing rehabilitation and the structure will resemble its 1903 appearance when completed. At a later date, a barn structure, similar to that located at the Chaffey - Garcia House, will be constructed to serve as a showcase for large artifacts as well as a caretaker's residence. The Etiwanda Historical Society will lease the Community Building from the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The Society encompasses approximately 130 members, including a governing board of approximately 6 members. The Isle House is proposed to be in use year round for events that promote the history of the Etiwanda area. B. Land Use Compatibility: The premise of all Conditional Use Permit reviews is to ensure the compatibility of adjacent uses and separation of potential nuisance activities. In reviewing the potential land use compatibility, the primary issue to consider relates to the potential impacts and hours of operation of any proposed outdoor activities of the Etiwanda Historical Society and contiguous properties to the north and west. Considering the proposed community building's hours of operation, staff does not anticipate a conflict between the community building and the adjacent residences. C. Environmental Assessment: The project is categorically exempt under Class 1.d of the guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act. D. Parking: A total of 10 parking spaces will be provided as on site parking; of those 10 spaces, 2 will be reserved as disabled parking. The Etiwanda Congregational Church parking lot, located directly to the south of the site, will be used to satisfy overflow parking needs. CORRESPONDENCE: This item was advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were sent to all property owners within 300 feet of the project site.

A few such examples still survive in the Los Angeles area, including the Valley Knudsen Garden Residence, moved to Heritage Square in Highland Park. In the local area, the major example of Second Empire styling is the large, two-story brick Barton House near Coiton; it has been listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Several small, wood frame Mansarded houses still survive in San Barnardino. Never plentiful in the area, houses representing this style have virtually disappeared from the amhitectural landscape. A/though altered after the c. 1903 move, most notably with the addition of a rear wing, the expansion of the front perch around the south side, and window and door modifications on the south elevation, the house still is a strong qualifier for the National Register u~dar critericn C.

Brlefly describe the present PHYSICAL CONDITION of the site or structure and describe any major alterations from Its original condition: As origirially constructed, this small, wood frame house was one and a hall stories in height, with a steep, bellcast Mansard roof at the second level; the upper part of the roof terminated in a Iow pyramid. Rows of pattsms<:l shingles of varying designs enciroled the roof slope, which was broken only by paired dormers on the facade and the two sides. The plan st the house was roughly square. The recessed, transomed entrance was centered in the facade, and was flanked by two large 2/2 double hung windows. A porch spanned the front, with the roof supported by four posts; there was no porch rail, and the entrance was accessed by lhrae centralyplaced steps. A brick chimney arose through the center of the roof. After Jh.e move, the building remained essentially the same, but'some minor changes were introduced. A small addition was constructed at the rear of the building; it is built of cobblestones, a typical conslruction material in the local area after the turn of the century. The porch was extended to wrap around the south side of the building, connecting wi~h the rear addition; it was redesigned to echo tho Mansard shape of the original roof. The squared pomh supports were replaced by turned Posts, and a 'Chinese Chippendale" railing was added; the central entrance steps were removed, and steps were constructed at each end st the porch, with main entrance steps placed diagonally al the southeasl corner connecting with a walkway leading to a gate at the corner of the lot. All three sets of steps were flanked by Iow cobblestone side walls with concrete caps. Later alterations include the creation of a new central doorway on Ihs south side, and its subsequent modification. The roof was damaged during a severe windstorm in 1988, but has been repaired; the porch is also undergoing repair at the present time. Although altered, many of these alteraticns were made at the time of the move during the association of James C. Isle with the property; they should be viewed as part of the h~storic fabric, rather than modifications which detract from the significance of the property. Although the loss st Ihs grove is uhiortunate,'aod results in a loss of historic setting, the architectural character of the house is so strong'that it still remains an importan[ example of the early architecture of the community. Other property features inclbde three mature palm trees in front of the house on Eliwanda Avenue, and one at the rear on Highland Avenue; several ci~rus trees and an olive tree still stand near the house. An early ooncrete irrigaticn 'cistern' or ser~Jing basin stands in the lield to the west of the house, it is associated with the former irrigation system which dJslributed water to the large citrus groves which occupied Isle's property; the groves have now been removed. The property slill relalns the old eucalyptus windbreak to the north. Later additions lo the property include a c. 1950 wood frame shed/~ormar garage norlh of the house. A Iow concrete brock fence has been constructed across the front and side of the yard adjacent Io the two inlersecting streets. A modern house trailer stands at the rear st the house. CONTINUATION SHEET MAP REFERENCE NO. 39 19.E]rlefly state historical and/or erchltecturel Importance (Include dates, events, end persons associated with !he site): The house is featured in several local histories; it is one of the oldest surviving buildings of the early days of the Etiwanda Colony. Research in the San Bemard~no County Assessor's lot books traced the property back Io 1895, when it was owned by Charles Charley. The house had been built on another parcel nearby, and was under the ownership of Anne Chaffey; local histories date the construction of the house at 1883. After a series of sales, the house was sold about 1903 to James C. Isle, who moved it on log rollers to its present site. Isle acquired the present property in 1901, but transferred it to William P. Myers two years later. Isle re-acquired the lot in 1906, and continued to own it until 1937, when it Was transferred to Martha E. Isle. In 1943, it was acquired by Atfred W. McGuire, the present owner, who is James isle's grandson. Although the date of the relocation is unknown, it is ' ' highly likely to have occurred in 1903, when Isle purchased the house and was still the owner of the corner lot before it was sold to Myers. it was on the new site in 1915, when the assessor's lot books began noting separate assessments for improvements. Isle also acquired numerous other lO-acre lots of Etlwanda Colony lands, eventually amassing large citrus holdings; he and his son- in-law, George P. McGuire, were said to have owned 125 acres of citrus land in the community (Hickcox, p. 102). Although James C. Isle owned one of the largest citrus ranches in the Etiwanda ~ea, his contr~utions to local history do not appear to be well-known. However, the Isle house is an unusual survivor of the early days of settlement in the Etlwanda Colony, dating from the founding years in the 1880s. The house is widely published in local histo5as, and remains surprisingly unaltered, considering its 106-year age. Although moved, the relocation occurred at the turn of the centu~, and the house remained in its original neighborhood. It continues to be one of the rare surviving examples.of its type and period, not only in the local community, but is also rare in southern California. In spite of some deterioration, it slill remains a notable, example ol small-scale domestic Second Empire styling, and appears to meet Nalional Register criterion C at the local level of significance.
