Related Files: Landmark Designation 90-01 and Mills Act Agreement 90-01. PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: n A. Historical Si nTg nce: Jacob Stegmeier, the original owner of the house played an important roll ., in the development of Etiwanda because he was deeply involved in two of the most important businesses in the area: agriculture and communications. Built in 1908, the house is virtually unchanged and, as such, is a perfect example of the character which existed in the Etiwanda area, and therefore, preservation.is encouraged. From 1904 through 1905, Mr. Stegmeier served as one of the Board of Directors for the Etiwanda Fruit Company which packed and shipped Muscat Raisins. In 1906, Stegmeler began operating a business as a packer and shipper of the dried fruits. He also grew and packed oranges and lemons. Dried fruits were popular at this time because of the lack of refrigeration. According to A History of Etiwanda, Stegmeier used to let children come to his drying sheds-and cut peaches and apricots. He helped them earn summer spending money while at the same time they prepared fruit for drying. In 1907, Stegmeier was signed as one of the Board of Directors, Vice President and Manager of one of the first telecommunications companies in Southern California, the Home Telephone Company. The switchboard was located south of the Stegmeier House at the Fischer House, now located just north of Grapeland Elementary School. Stegmeier kept his title as Vice President and Manager through 1909. In 1930, the Home Telephone Company was sold to General Telephone Company. B. Site Characteristics: The Stegmeier House is currently located at 7050 Etiwanda Avenue. The house is covered with wood board siding and a semi-steep hipped roof with two gables. The house has a large front porch with round column supports and fieldstone foundation. These are elements of Queen Ann style architecture. The barn is in fair to good condition and is an original structure which was built approximately the same time as the house. The barn roof is enhanced with a cupola. Item "A" 'HISTORIC PRESERVATION STArF REPORT DRC2005-00160— DAVID L. ROSIN March 23, 2005 Page 2 ANALYSIS: A. General: The Stegmeier House received Landmark Designation status (LD 90-01) and approval of a Mills Act Agreement (MA90-01) on April 4, 1990. Although the date of the carport and storage structure addition to the barn is unknown, they are clearly not part of the original structures. The homeowner, David Rosin, is intending to replace the deteriorated barn roof this year and also rebuild the cupola at the same time. Removing these two additions from the barn is the first step toward restoring the landmark barn to its original condition and preserving its historic nature. B. Landmark Alteration: The landmark alteration involves the barn only and consists of removal of two structures: a 12-foot 1-Inch by 18-foot 1-inch storage addition and a 20-foot 2-inch by 13-foot 4-inch carport. Since neither affected barn portions appear historic, the removal of these two structures will restore its original construction. C. Environmental Assessment: The project is categorically exempt under Class 1 existing facilities, Subsection "E" of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. FACTS FOR FINDING: The proposed Landmark Alteration meets the following criteria established in Chapter 22.24.120 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code. FINDING: The action proposed is consistent with the purpose of this Ordinance. FACT: The Landmark Alteration as presented will enhance and promote the visibility of this historic;` landmark. FINDING: The action proposed will not be detrimental to a structure or feature of significant aesthetic, cultural, architectural, or engineering interest or value of historic nature. FACT: The proposed alterations are architecturally compatible and will enhance the continued use and viewing of the structure. CORRESPONDENCE: This item was advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners within a 300-foot radius of the project site. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Commission approve Landmark Alteration Permit DRC2005-00160 through adoption of the attached Resolution of Approval.

Related file: Landmark Designation DRC2005-00173. BACKGROUND A. Historical Significance: The "Buehler" home was constructed pre 1913 by an unknown Architect and Builder near the Cucamonga town center. The dwelling is part of a group of turn of the century residences built on smaller City lots instead of large agricultural lots that were standard in Cucamonga. The merchants and business owners lived in these homes because of their proximity to their businesses. In 1920, Walter A. Buehler purchased the home and lived there with his wife Lillian and their two sons and two daughters until 1944. He established Buehler Tank Works, which was a major local industry and employer of the community during World War II. B. Site Characteristics: The house sits on an 11,880 square foot parcel (.27 acre) on the north side of San Bernardino Road as part of a group of turn of the century residences, surrounded by residential and commercial areas. The land use zoning of the site and the surrounding area is designated Low Residential (2-4 dwellings per acre). ANALYSIS A. General: The house was first surveyed in 1987 (see Exhibit "D"). The house is a two-story, wood-framed building with a composite shingle roof. It is rectangular in shape .. with wood clapboard siding and double hung windows. An addition appears to have been ITEMS A & B HISTORIC PRESERVATION STAFF REPORT DRC2005-00173—AMANDA LOPEZ- CASTANON April 13, 2005 Page 2 added on to the west elevation of the dwelling in the late 1920s; with the exception of the front door and the 1920s addition, the home retains its original construction. B. Landmark Designation: The subject site qualifies for landmark designation based upon much of the criteria from the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance, including such significant areas as historical, cultural, neighborhood, and geographic setting. Details concerning these areas of significance are contained in the Facts for Findings section. The requested designation is for the structure that is greater than 50 years in age. The purpose of the designation is to preserve, protect, enhance, and perpetuate a significant feature that contributes to the cultural and aesthetic benefit of Rancho Cucamonga. C. Mills Act Agreement:. In accordance with City policy, the owner has requested a Mills Act Agreement. The Agreement Schedule List of Improvements has been drafted and reviewed and is attached for reference (Exhibit C). The concept of the Mills Act program is to provide an incentive for the property owner to protect and preserve the property by retaining its characteristics of historical significance. This intent is encouraged through the reduction of property taxes, thus enabling the property owner to reinvest the money saved from the reduced property tax on the improvements. The properties that enter into the agreement are to be inspected by City staff on an annual basis to determine whether notable progress has been made in rehabilitating the property. Staff estimates the property tax savings to the owner could be as much as $1,368 per year. The exact amounts are dependent upon the County Assessor's property valuation, which is based on income potential and capitalization rate at the time of the assessment. D. Environmental Assessment: The project is categorically exempt under Section 15331 as a Class 31 exemption.of the guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act. FACTS FOR FINDING: A. Historical and Cultural Significance: Finding 1: The proposed landmark is particularly representative of a historical period, type,'style, region, or way of life. Factts: The property is an excellent example of life in early Cucamonga, as the residents needed to locate themselves towards the Cucamonga town center to be closer to their businesses. Factls: The dwelling is part of a grouping of structures built at the turn of the century on smaller City lots that was different from the previous development of large agricultural lots. Finding 2: The proposed landmark is of greater age than most of its kind. Factls: The dwelling was built pre 1913. Finding 3: The proposed landmark was connected with someone renowned or important or a local personality. HISTORIC PRESERVATION STAFF REPORT DRC2005-00173 ' AMANDA LOPEZ-CASTANON April 13, 2005 Page 3 Factls: Walter A. Buehler lived in the dwelling from 1920 until 1944. He established Buehler Tank Works, a major local Industry, and was a large employer during World War II. B. Neighborhood and Geographic Setting: Findin 1: The proposed landmark materially benefits the historic character of the neighborhood. Factls: The proposed landmark contributes to the character of the historic neighborhood as part of a group of turn of the century homes and represents the evolution of small City lot development from large agricultural lots in early Cucamonga. Finding 2: The proposed landmark in its location represents an established and familiar visual feature of the neighborhood, community, or City. Fact1s: The proposed Landmark is part of a larger group of historic dwellings located close to the original Cucamonga town center. CORRESPONDENCE: The Historic Landmark designation 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. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Historic Preservation Commission recommend approval of Landmark Designation DRC2005-00173 and Mills Act Agreement DRC2005-00179 to be forwarded to the City Council for final action.

This structure is significant to the community, since it is one of a group of structures built around the turn of the century that were near the Cucamonga town center. Previously, most homes were located on large tracts of agricultural land. This group was built on smaller, city type lots. Merchants or business owners lived in these homes that were located near to their businesses. The particular structure was the home of W. A. Buehler who established Buehler Tank works, a major local industry that employed many people from the community. This industry was a very large employer during World War II. Buehler owned the house from 1920 until 1944. Locationai sketch asap (draw and label site and surrounding streets, roads,and prominent landmarks): 20.
