AND MARSHA MEEKS BANKS - A request to implement the use of the Mills Act to reduce property tax on the Hippard Ranch Vineyards, currently applying for Historic Landmark Status, located at 13000 Victoria Street - APN: 0227-121-53 and 54.

AND MARSHA MEEK BANKS - A request to designate the Hippard Ranch Vineyards as a Designated Local Landmark, located at 13000 Victoria Street- APN: 0227-121- 53 and 54. Related file: Mills Act Agreement DRC2003-00631. BACKGROUND A. Historical Significance: The Chaffey brothers purchased this parcel from the South Pacific Railway July 26, 1882. Also in 1882, a congregation in Ohio bought the land from the Chaffey brothers for their minister, Samuel Hippard. Mr. Hippard passed away before he was ever able to see the land, and bequeathed it to his son George. George Hippard and his family built the Hippard Ranch on the parcel adjacent to the vineyards, and his wife Alice lived there year-round while George used the residence as a vacation home. The vineyards were removed between 1920 and 1930 because of prohibition, and the land remained unplanted until 1997. The Hippard family sold the land separately from the residence, which resulted in it changing ownership frequently until the Banks family purchased it. When the parcel that was previously vineyards was purchased, the original land belonging to Hippard Ranch once again was all under the same ownership. The Banks replanted the original vineyards in 1997 and have continued maintenance thereafter. B. Site Characteristics: The vineyard sits on a 9 acre parcel consisting of the replanted vineyards. The land use zoning of the site and the surrounding area is designated Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre). ITEMS A.,D _ HISTORIC PRESERVATION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-00630 AND DRC2003-00631 - BANKS August 13, 2003 Page 2 ANALYSIS A. General: The site is planted with vineyards in a setup similar to its planting, prior to removal in the 1920s-1930s. The vines are part of a working vineyard and are maintained by the Banks family to retain their agricultural value. These vines were planted in 1997, while the previous vines were planted prior to 1916. 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 area includes the subject lot and vineyard (Exhibit "B"). 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 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 $1,166 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 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 an historical period, type, style, region or way of life. Facts: The property is an excellent example of the agricultural period of the Etiwanda area, also exemplifying the livelihood of many settlers in this region. Finding : The proposed landmark is of greater age than most of its kind. Facts: The original vineyards were planted prior to 1916. Finding 3: The proposed landmark was connected with someone renowned or important or a local personality. Facts: Both the Chaffey and Hippard families were well known in the region. The Chaffey family owned the property less than a year, but the vineyards /1�1 , D a HISTORIC PRESERVATION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-00630 AND DRC2003-00631 - BANKS August 13, 2003 Page 3 remained in the Hippard family for over 60 years. The Chaffey family was involved with the creation of the Etiwanda Colony while Mrs. Hippard was active within the community through her work as an Etiwanda librarian from 1941-1948. Finding 4: The proposed landmark is connected with a business or use, which was once common but is now rare. Facts: The vineyards represent one of the most popular agricultural livelihoods in the area. Vineyards were once seen throughout the region, but are now a rare sight. B. Neighborhood and Geographic Setting: Finding 1: The proposed landmark materially benefits the historic character of the T neighborhood. Facts: The proposed landmark is the location of one of the earliest vineyards in the area and the new vineyards are reminiscent of the agricultural days of the Etiwanda Model Colony established by the Chaffey Brothers. 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 DRC2003-00630 and Mills Act Agreement DRC2003-00631 to be forwarded to the City Council for final action.

Also address integrity.) The land was purchased by Chaffey brothers in 1882. The Chaffey's were one of the most important families in the area due to their expanse of land ownership and involvement within the developing community. The land was later sold to the Hippard family who used the Etiwanda area as a vacation place until Hippard Ranch was built. Mrs. Alice Hippard lived with the children in the Etiwanda home year round, and was active within the community. During prohibition Mrs. Hippard made wine in her basement, although the vineyards were eventually removed. The vineyard exemplifies the agricultural history of the original Cucamonga Rancho area through use of the vineyards. Although the vines are not original, the land is being used as it had for during one of the most significant periods in the history of Etiwanda, 1311.

AND MARSHA MEEK BANKS - A request to designate the Etiwanda Telephone Switching Station as a Designated Local Landmark, located at 13103 Victoria Street- APN: 0227-121-31. Related file: Mills Act Agreement DRC2003-00629. BACKGROUND A. Historical Significance: The telephone switching station at 13103 Victoria Street was built in approximately 1930. It was the first automatic dialing system for the Etiwanda area. The Home Telephone Company began June 2, 1907, as a mutual cooperative company. Mrs. Florence Fischer and her daughter Nellie operated the telephone switchboard for the Home Telephone Company from their home on Etiwanda Avenue. The Home Telephone Company's operations were taken over by Associated Telephone Company in 1930. At this time the Associated Telephone Company agreed to maintain telephone service as is until an automatic switching station could be built. This was achieved the same year. The Associated Telephone Company constructed the first automatic dialing system in Etiwanda, which provided service to the area from 1930 until 1953, when the Associated Telephone Company was sold to the General Telephone Company. General Telephone built a larger center, causing the station at Etiwanda to become obsolete. The water tank on the southern end of the parcel was constructed in 1947, possibly built by Henry Klusman, as he constructed many poured-concrete structures during this time. Etiwanda Water Company commissioned the building and used the water tank until Southwest Water Company bought out Etiwanda. Southwest owned the water tank until r Southwest was bought by Cucamonga County Water District. The Cucamonga County Water District decommissioned the water tank in the 1980's and cut a garage door into it for use as a service yard for the Etiwanda area. They renamed the tank the 'roundhouse,' and eventually sold it to the Banks family. ITEMS B,E HISTORIC PRESERVATION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-00628 AND DRC2003-00529 — BANKS August 13, 2003 Page 2 B. Site Characteristics: The buildings sit on a 0.57 acre parcel, containing the water tank and the telephone station. The water tank is currently used as a storage area while the telephone station is not presently being used. The zoning of the site and surrounding area is designated Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre). ANALYSIS: A. General: The Etiwanda telephone switching station is rectangular in shape, with a steeply pitched roof. The one-story, brick masonry structure is roofed with composition shingles laid in a fish-scale pattern. -The water tank is poured-in-place concrete with alterations including a garage-entry way and shelves on the interior for storage. The tank was built in 1947, possibly by the well- known Henry Klusman. The Cucamonga County Water District made alterations, although the Banks family has removed some of the alterations. B. Landmark Designation: The subject structures certainly qualify 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 consists of the subject lot, including the telephone switching station and water tank (Exhibit "C"). 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 "D"). 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 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.

Prior to this Mrs. Fischer operated the telephone switching station at her residence on Etiwanda Avenue. The switching station's simple architecture relates to its purpose of sheltering the automatic system from weather. This building is unique because it is the first station to house the automatic system and was built as early as the 1930's and remained in use until the 1953, when Associated Telephone Company was sold to General Telephone Company.

Related Files: Tentative Tract Map SUBTT16430 and Tree Removal Permit DRC2002-00917. BACKGROUND A. Historical Significance: The Toews Residence (pronounced "Tate"), located at 5550 Archibald Avenue is currently listed as a Potential Local Landmark within the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The home was first identified as potentially historic during a citywide survey of historic buildings in 1987. In 1910, Abraham Karl Toews purchased a 10 acre parcel at the southwest corner of Hillside Road and Archibald Avenue from Fredrick and Lee Haag. Lee Haag was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Whitfield, who initially obtained the property as part of a 129 acre homestead from the Bureau of Land Management in 1888. At the time Mr. Toews purchased the property, the Whitfield Family had already built the large two-story home on-site, and the land had been planted with grapes and citrus. The land ITEMS C,F,G HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-00574, DRC2003-00575, AND DRC2003-00576-- MANNING HOMES August 13, 2003 Page 2 also came with water rights. Water was obtained by gravity flow through a 1-inch pipe from Demens Canyon. Both Mr. and Mrs. Toews were born in small Mennonite communities near the Volga River and Black Sea in Russia: Subjected to religious persecution in Russia, the Toews, along with many other Mennonite refugees, immigrated to the United States. The couple married in Newton, Kansas in 1901, and subsequently settled in Oklahoma where three of their children were born, Emil, Irene, and Frieda. Shortly thereafter, the family relocated to Upland to reside with Mrs. Isaak, mother of Anna Toews. In 1910, the family finally settled on the site of the existing Toews Residence where their fourth child, John, was born. Over a period of years, the family farmed the land and increased the size of the ranch from 10 acres to 90 acres. The Toews Family continued their loyalty to the Mennonite religion, faithfully attending the Upland Mennonite church every Sunday. The neighborhood where they lived was very interesting and filled with prominent citizens, as well as other Russian immigrants. The Demens family was directly to the north, the Cherbaks to the east, the Thorpes and Grandma Isaak to the west, and the Krystos down the street to the south. Mr. and Mrs. Toews continued to reside on the ranch until the mid 1940s when they sold the property and moved back to Upland where they spent the remainder of their lives. B. Site Characteristics: The Toews Residence sits on a 4.3 acre parcel of land at the southwest corner of Hillside Road and Archibald Avenue. The parcel is part of a proposed 23-lot subdivision on a total of 13.6 acres of land between Wilson Avenue and Hillside Road. The entire 13.6 acre site slopes southerly at approximately eight percent. The site has three remnant Eucalyptus windrows and numerous random trees scattered throughout the property. The site is primarily vacant with the exception of the Toews Residence and barn, and an empty water retention basin near Hillside Road. The site includes a partially developed Edison substation with block walls at the corner of Archibald Avenue and Wilson Avenue that will be demolished. The substation never became operational because equipment was never installed. The site is surrounded by existing single-family development to the east, west, and south that are zoned Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre). To the north of the site is the Historic Landmark, Demons-Tolstoy Ranch House and vacant land also zoned Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre). ANALYSIS A. General: The Toews Residence is approximately a 2,000 square foot "saltbox" (square) shaped structure built on a raised stone foundation. With a southern orientation, the home is made of painted wood siding with a wood shake roof. The home appears to be intact from its original architectural design, with the exception of a small masonry addition and fireplace attached to the west side of the structure. The exact date of the addition is unknown. The home has a number of square and rectangular shaped windows with wood mullions and surrounds. The front of the home has a large bay window trimmed with wood scale siding. The home is painted entirely white. Representative of several architectural trends, the house incorporates prominent details from Classical Revival, as well as masonry construction that were popular circa 1905. C,7� , Gk a HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-00574, DR02003-00575, AND DRC2003-00576— MANNING HOMES k August 13, 2003 Page 3 Most notable among its design accents are its shape, large bay window, and stone retaining wall at the front of the home. West of the home is a 1,976 square foot barn that was probably built during the latter half of the 1890s. The barn is rectangular in shape with a "broken gable" roof ("broken gable" refers to the shed roofs which adjoin the main roof, having slightly les pitch). The structure is made of wood planks standing atop stone rubble-filled concrete footing. The original wood shake shingle roof is now mostly covered with corrugated metal. The barn is a natural weathered wood in color. The consulting firm, Archaeological Associates, prepared a Historic Building Assessment for the applicant (a copy is attached for reference). In summary, the study concluded that the barn does not meet state or national levels of significance, although it does probably meet several criteria for the City of Rancho Cucamonga's designation as a local landmark structure. However, the study also concludes that the deteriorated condition of the structure makes it unlikely to be eligible for relocation and repair. Therefore, staff does not recommend landmark designation for the barn; however, it is recommended that Historic American Buildings Survey/Historic American Engineering Record (NABS/HAER) documentation be provided prior to demolition, as a mitigation measure. B. Landmark Designation: The residence certainly qualifies for landmark designation based upon much of the criteria from the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance, including such significant areas as historical, cultural, architectural, neighborhood, and geographic setting. See attached Survey Form DPR 523A, for detailed information (Exhibit "I"). Details concerning these areas of significance are contained in the "Facts for Findings" section. C. Landmark Alteration: The owner has requested approval to make exterior changes to the Toews Residence, particularly removal of features that were not original. The most significant change would be the relocation of the home to a new lot (Lot 19), to be created by the proposed Tentative Tract Map SUBTT16430 (Exhibit "A"). The home will be plotted facing north, rather than its current south facing orientation. Another significant change would be demolition of the existing wooden barn. A new, detached three-car garage/barn emulating the architectural design of the removed barn will be built to serve the home. Other proposed alterations include installation of hardscape, landscaping, walls and fences, and interior improvements as necessary to make the house habitable. For a detailed list of alterations, refer to Exhibit "H." D. Mills Act Agreement: In accordance with City policy, the owner has requested a Mills Act Agreement. The concept of the Mills Act is to provide an incentive for the property owner to protect and preserve the property by retaining its characteristics of historical significance. Through the reduction of property taxes, the property owner is encouraged to reinvest the money saved from the reduced property tax and use it on improvements to the property. 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. The exact amount of annual property tax and savings to the owner are dependent upon the County Assessor's property valuation, which is based on income potential and the capitalization rate at the time of assessment. The agreement Schedule List of Improvements has been drafted and reviewed, and is attached for reference.

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. Facts: The residence is an excellent example of the residences built during the early settlement years of the Alta Loma community and the once flourishing citrus and grape growing industries. Finding 2: The proposed landmark is an example of a type of building that was once common but is now rare. Facts: The residence is indicative of the style and design used by the prevalent, but now rare, rural grove and vineyard houses. Finding 3: The proposed landmark is of greater age than most of its kind. Fact/s: The intact home Was built in the late 1890s and is approximately 108 to 112 years old. Finding 4: The proposed landmark was connected with someone renowned or important, or a local personality. Facts: The home was originally built by William Whitfield for his daughter Lee and her husband: Fredrick Haag. The Haags sold the home and surrounding property to Abraham and Anna Toews. All three families were instrumental in the citrus and grape industries, and in the settlement Alta Loma (formally loamosa). Finding-: The proposed landmark is connected with a business or use, which was once a common business and use for land in the Rancho Cucamonga area. Facts: The home is reminiscent of the citrus and grape industries and ranching that was once a common business and use for land in the Rancho Cucamonga area. b. Historic Architectural and Engineering Significance: Finding 1: The construction materials or engineering methods used in the proposed landmark are unusual, significant, or uniquely effective. HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-00574, DRC2003-00575, AND DRC2003-00576— MANNING HOMES August 13, 2003 Page 5 Facts: The construction materials and engineering methods recall the use of details and craftsmanship that was once common, but now rare. The Toews Residence is a two-story "saltbox" shaped structure of Classical Revival design, as well as masonry construction that was popular circa 1905. The home is made primarily of painted wood siding with a raised river rock footing. The home has a number of square and rectangular shaped windows with wood mullions and surrounds. The home is painted entirely white in color. Finding 2: The overall effect of the design of the proposed landmark is particularly beautiful, and its details and materials are beautiful or unusual. Facts: The "saltbox" shape, amount of wood siding, and large bay window on the front of the home add to the beauty and uniqueness of the proposed landmark. The features are not commonly found in residential construction today. C. Neighborhood and Geographic Setting: Finding 1: The proposed landmark materially benefits the historic character of the neighborhood. Facts: The Toews Residence is one of the oldest surviving residences built in Alta Loma. The home enhances the historic character of the community that includes the historic Demens-Tolstoy house directly to the north and the Grandma Isaak house directly to the west. d. Landmark Alteration: Finding 1: The action proposed is consistent with the purpose of this ordinance. Facts: The landmark alteration, as presented, will enhance and promote the continued use of the Toews Residence. Finding 2: The action proposed will not be detrimental to a structure or feature of significant aesthetic, cultural, architectural, or engineering interest of value of a historic nature. Facts: The proposed relocation, restoration, and rehabilitation are architecturally compatible and will enhance the continued use of the Toews Residence. The rehabilitation will follow the Secretary of the Interior's Guidelines for Rehabilitation. 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.

The Rainses had a mortgage on the rancho with the Farmers and Merchants Bank in Los Angeles, of which Isaias W. Hellman was president. After the death of John Rains and after long legal battles, Mr. Hellman foreclosed on the mortgage and obtained title to the entire rancho on May 9, 1871. During the next few years, he divided the land into three sections, selling the first section immediately to some San Francisco men who called it the Cucamonga Company. Mr. Hellman planned to develop and sell the land in the other two sections himself, calling them the Cucamonga Fruit Lands Company, and the Cucamonga Homestead Association. It was the Cucamonga Homestead Association, organized on July 3, 1874, and located north of Base Line and west Hermosa Avenue, that later became a large part of Alta Loma. The land was divided into 20-acre lots and advertised for sale. Even a townsite was planned, with small lots, on the west side of Carnelian south of Banyan; although this townsite was carefully laid out, nothing ever happened there. Unfortunately, Mr. Hellman did not understand the importance of an adequate supply of water being delivered to his lots. The only water came from the canyons through open ditches or flumes, and therefore very 'few lots were sold in the early years. It was not until 1882 that Mr. Hellman started tunneling for water. Long before this, Mr. and Mrs. William Whitfield had come to.California from the South and had taken up a homestead in the Etiwanda area. They lived there while their son Bill and daughter Lee were growing up, and during this time Mr. Whitfield had found land farther west that he liked, so he obtained government patent under homestead entry to 160 acres to the northeast of the Cucamoll— Rancho, including Deer Canyon, and also all the foothill land to the north of the Cucamonga Rant, boundary about as far west as Amethyst, which took in Thorpe Canyon, Demens Canyon, Cherbak Canyon, and Laurel Canyon. During his exploration of the foothill country, Mr. Whitfield surely became acquainted with Mr. J. C. Sommers who acquired a homestead in the foothills west of the Whitfield land in 1870. Mr. Sommers built a home for his wife and family, planted trees and vineyards, and worked hard at his farming. The Sommers family were certainly the first settlers in the area, but the Whitfields were a close second and the first to actually buy land from the Cucamonga Homestead Association and live on that land. They knew how to bring water down from the canyons so water was no problem for them. In 1875, Mr. Whitfield sold the 150 acres to the east of the Cucamonga Homestead Association, with rights to all water from Deer Canyon and its tributaries, to Henry Reed from Missouri, and he also sold the Etiwanda homestead, buying several 20-acre lots from the Cucamonga Homestead Association north of Wilson and east of Amethyst. Mr. and Mrs. Whitfield built a wooden house on Wilson near Amethyst where they lived until 1910; this house had a kitchen, a dining room, a living room, two bedrooms, a bathroom, an enclosed sleeping porch and a little stone "milk house" on one side, so they did have room to take in newcomers when they needed help. The Whitfields' son Bill married and lived on his father's land. Their daughter Lee married Frederick W. Haag, and in 1891, the Haags bought the 10 acres on the southwest corner of Archibald and Hillside from Lee's father; on that land, Mr. Whitfield built a handsome two-story white house for his daughter and her husband, where they raised their family of three children. Mr. Haag was a member of the school board for several years in the early 1900s; in 1910, the Haags sold their ranch to the Toews family and moved away. Mr. and Mrs. Whitfield sold land to Mr. Green, Mr. Lawrence, Mr. Wells and others over t years until they finally sold all their remaining land, 285 acres, to Charles F. Thorpe in 1910 and iejt the area. Exhibit P -3- .. _. ; In about 1916-17, the road contractor who was paving 19th Street boarded with the Hedges. The family lived on their ranch until 1926; after t. Cora graduated from Chaffey High �r School and went to Jr. College one year, -, they sold the ranch, built a new Home in Pacific Palisades, and moved there. The old ranch house has been torn down, but . s the Hedges family is remembered as being helpful neighbors and friendly to The 1915 Studebaker after it was struck by a P.E. car. everyone. TOEWS Abraham Karl Toews brought his family to Ioamosa in 1910, buying the 10-acre ranch, with large white two-story house, on Archibald bordered on the north by Hillside. Mr. Toews bought the ranch from Frederick and Lee Whitfield Haag; it was a part of the old Whitfield ranch. The Iand had already been planted to citrus and vineyard, and water was provided by perpetual flow of 1/2 inch of water coming out of Demens Canyon through a mile of 1-inch pipe by gravity. The right to that water originated with the Whit- fields; water rights were purchased with the land. Mr. Toews and his wife Anna Louise, nee Isaak, were both born in small Mennonite communities in Russia near the Volga River and the Black Sea. (see Appendix E) The name Toews is actually of Dutch origin, and the family Looking north at the Toews house when they bought emigrated from the Netherlands when the it from the Haag$ in 1919, with original vineyard in foreground. ; �' 17 �M�� 1 �' Y Mennonites were persecuted there. They migrated to West Prussia about 1700 and remained there long enough so their native language became German. When life in Prussia grew too difficult, the A^ ' Mennonites there moved to Russia, forming many f �a small villages between 1764 and 1864. But this didn't last long either because they soon began to be denied the privileges granted them by Catherine the Great, and then most of the Mennonite families migrated to the United States, primarily between 1850 and 1900. Mr. and Mrs. Toews met and were married in Newton, Kansas. They lived first in Oklahoma where three children were born, Emil, Irene, and Frieda. In The Toews home under 2 inches of snow in 1913, C A _y 1909, they sold their homestead in Oklahoma and moved to Califo nia, at first near Bakersfield. When that didn't work out, they came to Upland where Mrs. Toews' mother, Mrs. Isaak, was living, and soon " n Ioamosa and moved into the large, comfortable house. That house is still they found the ranch i standing today. The fourth Toews child, John, was born after they came to Ioamosa, and all the chilu�dr attended and graduated from the grammar school there. Emil remembers the school as one room an( one teacher at first, the teacher being Mrs. Klotz who drove a one-cylinder Brush auto with "steerin= bar" and the students could hear it coming a mile away. In the upper grades, Miss Melba Case was hi: teacher, and although German was his native language, school was always easy for him but for somt reason he occasionally had to stay after school. Since Emil was expected to help his father on the ranch every afternoon, he kept Tg� his parents from knowing he had to stay after school by varying his speed so he got home about the same time every day. As a result, he , became a very good mile runner. The Toew, . , lived in an interesting neighborhood, with the Demens directly to the north, the Cherbaks tc ' $ the east, the Thorpes to the west, and the g.. Krystos down the street. Emil especially remembers George Cherbak as his schoolmate >; It a and friend. Other school friends that he y, remembers include Andy and Lucille Araiza ¢' Hamlin Hawker, Margaret and Esther Ledig Toews gathering with family and friends, on their Eleanor Welch, Lorena Habegger, Mildred Roth, and Gerhard and John McKee. front steps. The Toews family aNvay continued their loyalty to th( Mennonite religion, faithfull, attending the Upland Mennonit, a P Spring plowing in the vineyard; Mr. Toews ahead with the mules, Emil following behind, John watching in the foreground. Church every Sunday. Mr. Toews was one of the first ranchers to buy an automobile; he bought a Studebaker in about 1913 because he had found Studebaker wagons to be the most Irene, Emil and Freida Toews durable. His reason for buying an auto was that he felt it was about 1915. wrong to wort: the mules six days a week and then expect them 0-,11;:, (1� aQ to pull a carriage six miles to church and back on Sundays. The shAst road to Upland before the bridge was built across the wash was a dirt track on the west side of Red Hill, and Emil remembers running behind the carriage on cold Sunday evenings to keep warm, in days before the Studebaker. After the bridge was built and they had an auto, it was much easier to get there. The Toews children were among those who attended the German summer school when the Upland Mennonite Church rented the Ioamosa grammar school several summers, about 1912-14. The Whole family enjoyed the friendship of many other Mennonite families in Ioamosa, and later in Alta Loma, including the Ledigs, Dahlems, Dettweilers, Schmutz, Habeggers, Schowalters, and others. In R N ;€ 1925, Emil and his father, with two teams _ =a of mules, helped dig the basement of the 6, Mennonite Church. present Upland Mr. Toews increased his 10-acre ranch to 90 acres over a period of years. "Grandma Isaak" had purchased land next to the Toews acreage and she had a small house built there where she lived for some years before moving to Los Angeles. Emil learned enough about farming from his father so he could be successful on his own. His first venture took place when he The Toews family getting ready to go to church. was still in high school. Just south of the Toews ranch was a large acreage of virgin land which still belonged to Mr. Hellman. Emil rode the Pacific Electric to Los Angeles to ask Mr. Hellman if he could use this land to raise hay, telling him the land was presently raising only weeds and gophers. Mr. Hellman was impressed with the young man's resourcefulness and agreed to let hm farm it. The land was covered with tall weeds and dried brush so Emil first burned it off; the resulting fire caused such clouds of smoke that the San Bernardino Fire Department came all the way out to see what was going on. After that excitement was over, things went well. Emil's father had taught him just how to stack his hay so rain could not hurt it. In June of 1922 there was a heavy rain that ruined most of the hay in the area, but Emil had his stacked correctly and had no trouble selling his whole crop for a good profit. After that he bought his own 20-acre ranch on Beryl north of Hillside; however, after he finished high school and later went on to college, he had no more time for the ranch so it was cared for by others. The Toews girls married and moved away, and Emil married Malinda Baer, Katherine Ledig Baer's daughter. Emil and Malinda lived for a few months in what had been Grandma Isaak's house, but Emil chose to pursue public education as his career and he and Malinda soon moved to Santa Monica and later to Sacramento; they kept their ranch on Beryl and Hillside for 23 years until it was sold to Mike Carrari. Mr. and Mrs. A. K. Toews remained as respected members of the Alta Loma community until 1946 when they sold the house and ranch and moved to Upland, where they spent the rest of their lives. GOERLITZ Mr. Ernest Goerlitz was manager of the Metropolitan Opera Company in New York when he first became acquainted with Captain Demens in about 1882. In the early 1900's Mr. Goerlitz retired due to ill health, and he and his wife and two sons moved to California. They made friends with the Demens family in Los Angeles and Captain Demens recommended Ioamosa as a good place to live. In 1910, Mr. and Mrs. Goerlitz bought the house on Hellman Avenue which had been built in 1902 by lvii•. James for the Charles Thorpe family, the first house north of the Reid ranch. This house had been built around an open court with a fountain in it; Mrs. Goerlitz had the court roofed over. The Goerlitz boys, Edgar and Herbert, attended the local schools, and Mr. Goerlitz was on the committee to work C, F,Cl� �� CITY OF RANCHO' Historic Plaque Program Information Q .13; QT70T i m�raM rrn.r a ix7u�asr �M 'r'�3G✓�� y-et il�tll.t7t1��'��t� Exhibit "G" �s City of Rancho Cucamonga ? . _ Historic Preservation Commission 3 MILLS ACT AGREEMENT SUPPLEMENTAL: (To be completed by the Applicant) Please list the improvements which are intended to take place over the next 10 years.

Related file: Mills Act Agreement DRC2003-00631. BACKGROUND A. Historical Significance: The Chaffey brothers purchased this parcel from the South Pacific Railway July 26, 1882. Also in 1882, a congregation in Ohio bought the land from the Chaffey brothers for their minister, Samuel Hippard. Mr. Hippard passed away before he was ever able to see the land, and bequeathed it to his son George. George Hippard and his family built the Hippard Ranch on the parcel adjacent to the vineyards, and his wife Alice lived there year-round while George used the residence as a vacation home. The vineyards were removed between 1920 and 1930 because of prohibition, and the land remained unplanted until 1997. The Hippard family sold the land separately from the residence, which resulted in it changing ownership frequently until the Banks family purchased it. When the parcel that was previously vineyards was purchased, the original land belonging to Hippard Ranch once again was all under the same ownership. The Banks replanted the original vineyards in 1997 and have continued maintenance thereafter. B. Site Characteristics: The vineyard sits on a 9 acre parcel consisting of the replanted vineyards. The land use zoning of the site and the surrounding area is designated Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre). 1 AQk HISTORIC PRESERVATION STAFF REPORT ORC2003-00630 AND DRC2003-00631 - BANKS August 13, 2003 Page 2 ANALYSIS A. General: The site is planted with vineyards in a setup similar to its planting, prior to removal in the 1920s-1930s. The vines are part of a working vineyard and are maintained by the Banks family to retain their agricultural value. These vines were planted in 1997, while the previous vines were planted prior to 1916. 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 area includes the subject lot and vineyard (Exhibit "B"). 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 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 $1,166 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 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 an historical period, type, style, region or way of life. Fact/s: The property is an excellent example of the agricultural period of the Etiwanda area, also exemplifying the livelihood of many settlers in this region. Finding 2: The proposed landmark is of greater age than most of its kind. Facts: The original vineyards were planted prior to 1916. Finding 3: The proposed landmark was connected with someone renowned or important or a local personality. Fact/s: Both the Chaffey and Hippard families were well known in the region. The Chaffey family owned the property less than a year, but the vineyards AEk HISTORIC PRESERVATION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-00630 AND DRC2003-00631 - BANKS August 13, 2003 Page 3 remained in the Hippard family for over 50 years. The Chaffey family was involved with the creation of the Etiwanda Colony while Mrs. Hippard was active within the community through her work as an Etiwanda librarian from 1941-1948. Finding 4: The proposed landmark is connected with a business or use, which was once common but is now rare. Facts: The vineyards represent one of the most popular agricultural livelihoods in the area. Vineyards were once seen throughout the region, but are now a rare sight. B. Neighborhood and Geographic Setting: Finding 1: The proposed landmark materially benefits the historic character of the neighborhood. Facts: The proposed landmark is the location of one of the earliest vineyards in the area and the new vineyards are reminiscent of the agricultural days of the Etiwanda Model Colony established by the Chaffey Brothers. 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 DRC2003-00630 and Mills Act Agreement DRC2003-00631 to be forwarded to the City Council for final action.

The Chaffey's were one of the most important families in the area due to their expanse of land ownership and involvement within the developing community. The land was later sold to the Hippard family who used the Etiwanda area as a vacation place until Hippard Ranch was built. Mrs. Alice Hippard lived with the children in the Etiwanda home year round, and was active within the community. During prohibition Mrs. Hippard made wine in her basement, although the vineyards were eventually removed. The vineyard exemplifies the agricultural history of the original Cucamonga Rancho area through use of the vineyards. Although the vines,are not original, the land is being used as it had for during one of the most significant, periods in the history of Etiwanda. B-I 1.

AND MARSHA MEEK BANKS - A request to designate the Etiwanda Telephone Switching Station as a Designated Local Landmark, located at 13103 Victoria Street-APN: 0227-121-31. Related file: Mills Act Agreement DRC2003-00629. BACKGROUND A. Historical Significance: The telephone switching station at 13103 Victoria Street was built in approximately 1930. It was the first automatic dialing system for the Etiwanda area. The Home Telephone Company began June 2, 1907, as a mutual cooperative company. Mrs. Florence Fischer and her daughter Nellie operated the telephone switchboard for the Home Telephone Company from their home on Etiwanda Avenue. The Home Telephone Company's operations were taken over by Associated Telephone Company in 1930. At this time the Associated Telephone Company agreed to maintain telephone service as is until an automatic switching station could be built. This was achieved the same year. The Associated Telephone Company constructed the first automatic dialing system in Etiwanda, which provided service to the area from 1930 until 1953, when the Associated Telephone Company was sold to the General Telephone Company. General Telephone built a larger center, causing the station at Etiwanda to become obsolete. The water tank on the southern end of the parcel was constructed in 1947, possibly built by Henry Klusman, as he constructed many poured-concrete structures during this time. Etiwanda Water Company commissioned the building and used the water tank until Southwest Water Company bought out Etiwanda. Southwest owned the water tank until Southwest was bought by Cucamonga County Water District. The Cucamonga County Water District decommissioned the water tank in the 1980's and cut a garage door into it for use as a service yard for the Etiwanda area.. They renamed the tank the 'roundhouse,' and eventually sold it to the Banks -family. t HISTORIC PRESERVATI TAFF REPORT DRC2003-00628 AND DRC2003-00629 — BANKS August 13, 2003 Page 2 B. Site Characteristics: The buildings sit on a 0.57 acre parcel, containing the water tank and the telephone station. The water tank is currently used as a storage area while the telephone station is not presently being used. The zoning of the site and surrounding area is designated Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre). ANALYSIS: A. General: The Etiwanda telephone switching station is rectangular in shape, with a steeply pitched roof. The one-story, brick masonry structure is roofed with composition shingles laid in a fish-scale pattern. -The water tank is poured-in-place concrete with alterations including a garage-entry way and shelves on the interior for storage. The tank was built in 1947, possibly by the well- .known Henry Klusman. The Cucamonga County Water District made alterations, although the Banks family has removed some of the alterations. B. Landmark Designation: The subject structures certainly qualify 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 consists of the subject lot, including the telephone switching station and water tank (Exhibit "C"). 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 "D"). 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 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. The exact property tax savings are dependent upon the County Assessor's property valuation,. which is based on income potential and capitalization rate at the time of 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 i: The proposed landmark is particularly representative of an historical period, type, style, region or way of life. Facts: The telephone station is an excellent example of the technological advances W made in the early part of the 20th Century. Finding 2: The proposed landmark is an example of a type of building that was once common but is now rare. t �� T HISTORIC PRESERVATICWTAFF REPORT DRC2003-00628 AND DRC2003-00629—BANKS August 13, 2003 Page 3 Facts: Automatic dialing stations were once a major technological advance, but now are obsolete in this form and few remain. Finding 3: The proposed landmark is of greater age than most of its kind. Facts: The Etiwanda telephone switching station is approximately 73 years old with no major alterations. Facts: The water tank is 56 years old with a few alterations. B. Historic Architectural and Engineering Significance: Finding 1: The construction materials or engineering methods used in the proposed landmark are unusual, significant or uniquely effective. Facts: The brick masonry of the building has a unique effect. C. Neighborhood and Geographic Setting: Finding 1: The proposed landmark materially benefits the historic character of the neighborhood. Facts: The proposed landmark is the first automatic dialing system for the Etiwanda area and is easily seen from Victoria Street, causing it to be a noticeable part of the historic area. Fact/s: The water tank has remained on the property for over 50 years and is also visible from Victoria Street, adding to the historical character of the property. 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 DRC2003-00628 and Mills Act Agreement DRC2003-00629 to be forwarded to the City Council for final action.

Prior to this Mrs. Fischer operated the telephone switching station at her residence on Etiwanda Avenue. The switching station's simple architecture relates to its purpose of sheltering the automatic system from weather. This building is unique because it is the first station to house the automatic system and was built as early as the 1930's and remained in use until the 1953, when Associated Telephone Company was sold to General Telephone Company.

Related File: Tentative Tract Map SUBTT16311. BACKG ROUND A. Historical Si nificance: Antonio Serra and Tomas Boero built the residence located at 9317 6thStreet, in 1922. Antonio and Julia Blessent purchased the home and property in 1925, and various members of their family have resided there ever since. The Blessent's are known within the Cucamonga community as one of several Italian families who owned vineyards. The Blessent's were active within the community,with Antonio's son becoming a manager for the Bank of America (formerly Bank of Italy), and a board member of the Tri-Community Incorporation Committee. B. Site Characteristics: The house sits on a 9.54 acre parcel. The land use zoning of the site and the surrounding area is designated Low Residential (2-4 dwellings per acre). ANALYSIS A. General: This dwelling is from the early 1920s and is an irregular shape of wood construction. The one-story structure has a cross gable roof with composition shingles.The entire structure is covered with stucco and has a front addition from approximately the 1950s. B. Historical Point of Interest Designation: The subject site and structure qualify for Point of Interest designation based upon much of the criteria from the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance, including historical and cultural significance. Details concerning these areas of significance are contained in the Facts for Findings section. The requested point of interest designation relates to the site only. The residence has been altered several times since its original construction in 1922, including the addition of a front room and exterior stucco.

However, the significant roll the Blessent family played within the Italian community of Cucamonga warrants designation as a Historical Point of Interest.

This family was one of the Italian families within the Cucamonga community who owned vineyards. The residence is an example of the kind of prosperity that some Italian immigrants found by settling within the community. The Blessent's were active within the community, as Antonio's son Albert became a manager of the Cucamonga branch of the Bank of America, formerly the Bank of Italy. Albert also was a board member of the Tri-Community Incorporation Committee, which helped to incorporate the towns of Alta Loma, Cucamonga and Etiwanda to form the City of Rancho Cucamonga. B11.
