(Continued from April 28, 2004) Larry Henderson, Principal Planner, presented the staff report. Vice Chairman McNiel asked for confirmation that the maintenance of the trees would be the responsibility of the homeowners. Mr. Henderson confirmed that was correct. Commissioner Stewart asked if the current homeowners would have to disclose the maintenance requirement when selling their houses. Mr. Henderson stated that the real estate agent should check with the City as part of doing a due diligence and each property will have a notation with respect to the Landmark Designation for the walnut trees. He observed that a historic designation does not mean the trees will always be there because they may be removed because of disease or poor health. He commented that some people may plant new trees and indicated that some of the trees do show their age. Commissioner Fletcher noted that some of the trees are more than 60 years old. He asked the average life span of awalnut tree. Mr. Henderson replied that the trees would have already been removed if theywere a cash crop but ' since they are mainly ornamental, they are fine so long as they are green and not a hazard.. He said he talked to several people and no one seems to have an upper end on the length of time they should last. Vice Chairman McNiel opened the public hearing. Judy Spaulding, 5360 Falling Tree Lane, Rancho Cucamonga, stated she was the main applicant. She felt they are beautiful trees and noted they vary in size from 18 to 78 inches in diameter. She stated they grow slowly and have deep roots. She observed the trees have withstood winds and fire. She said she enjoys picking up the walnuts on her way to the bus stop with her children. She indicated they are the longest section of walnut trees in the City. She reported that the City trimmed the limbs about 3 years ago because the School District got new buses and the trees were trimmed back at the bus stops. Hearing no further testimony, Vice Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing. Commissioner Stewart commended the neighbors for coming together to protect the trees. Commissioner Fletcher felt it is a good designation and the trees have historical significance.

HISTORIC POINT OF INTEREST DESIGNATION DRC2004-00105 - CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA-A request to designate six residences located at 9424,9434,9456,9474,9482, and 9494 Foothill Boulevard as a Historic Point of Interest and allow relocation or demolition of ' all or some of the subject structures-APN: 0208-141-06, 08, 09, 11, 13, and 14. Related Files: Development District Amendment DRC2003-01037, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT16567, Development Review DRC2003-01036, and Tree Removal Permit DRC2004-00139. Brad Buller, City Planner, announced that the public hearing was still open for the Historic Preservation item, Historic Point of Interest Designation DRC2004-00105, and that itwould be heard concurrently with the related Planning Commission Items A, B, and C as noted above. Larry Henderson, Principal Planner, presented the staff report noting that a few minor corrections were being made to the resolutions. He commented that the resolutions delineate the 18 single- family structures as condominiums and that since each property owner will own the individual lots, the resolutions should indicate that they are single-family detached homes. In addition,he noted that on page 142, A-C of the agenda packet, that condition#3 would be revised to read, "The buildings along the west boundary shall be adjusted to provide a minimum 20-foot setback and a continuous buffer of the Podocarpus evergreen trees shall be provided along the project boundary." He added that on page 160, A-C of the agenda packet, condition #15 would be changed to read, "Six foot decorative block walls shall be constructed along the east and west project perimeter. For perimeter walls, if a double wall condition would result,the developer shall make a good faith effort to work with the adjoining property owners to provide a single wall. Developer shall notify, by mail, all contiguous property owners at least 30 days prior to the removal of any existing walls/fences along the project perimeter." Chairman Macias asked the Commissioners if there were any questions. Commissioner Stewart asked why the other homes were not being relocated like the one at 9494 Foothill Boulevard. She asked why we did not require the developer to pay to have all of the homes moved for preservation. She commented that from a historic preservation perspective, she wondered if offering the homes for purchase or salvage is enough. She was concerned that perhaps we have not done enough to save these structures and that from the larger perspective of the Etiwanda Historic Study Task Force; she knows Etiwanda is looking for historical structures. Mr. Henderson responded that the Craftsman house at 9494 Foothill Boulevard is an example of ' classic Craftsman architecture and that it has been well cared for. He commented that it is the only home of the group that has architectural significance and is unique. He remarked that the other homes are very simple and have been structurally altered and are not in very good shape. He added that they did not consider the homes as a group in the sense of being a historical district either because they are not really linked by design or arrangement and the area has been split apart with various commercial businesses. He noted that the other homes are also quite small (800-900 square feet)and it would be difficult to find someone that would be willing to invest in and rehabilitate such small homes. Commissioner Stewart said she had overlooked the size of the homes. She commented that the City now has the Etiwanda/Base Line Historic Study Task Force that is trying to get more significant historic homes moved into the historic area. She noted that she wants to be cautious about destroying homes that may have merit and at the same time post a plaque giving Klusman recognition and then not do the appropriate thing by destroying homes. She remarked that she believes the Task Force will want the relocation of the Craftsman house. Mr. Buller responded and noted that we(the City)do not want to see a loss of our historic resources because of relocation or rehabilitation costs. He remarked that the other homes moved to the Northtown area are larger and that this particular group of homes not being considered to be relocated or restored tonight are not recommended for preservation because of their small size and because their architecture is not representative of the historic element found in Etiwanda and even the one on 9494 may not be the appropriate age or size for the Etiwanda area. Rhonda Kneeley,, John Laing Homes, 255 East Rincon Street, Corona, stated that they had ' contacted the Northtown Housing Development representatives to discuss their possible interest in the old homes. She remarked that their only interest was in the Craftsman home at 9494. She added that they would continue to work with staff on Commissioner Stewart's suggestion. She HPC Minutes -2- April 14, 2004 added that there are other conditions that they are requesting to be revised including the conditions found on pages 113, 128, and 130, A-C of the agenda packet, which, with the revisions, will specifically allow the building permits for the model homes to be issued prior to; 1)the processing of the Vacation of 2nd Avenue; 2)the recording of the final Tract Map; 3) the recording of the CC&Rs and Articles of Incorporation of the Homeowner's Association, and 4) the submission of the Street Improvement Plans. Chairman Macias opened the public hearing. Douglas Pure, 7970 Layton Street, Rancho Cucamonga, commented that he is excited and happy with the new proposed project over the project proposed a year ago. He remarked that he likes the design and believes the project will enhance the property values adjacent to the project. He commented that the developer was responsive to their concerns regarding public safety and he is pleased they are putting in a traffic signal at the intersection of San Bernardino Road and Archibald Avenue. He pointed out that a number of people were in attendance at the meeting with him and he asked them to stand showing their support of the project(5 people stood). He reported that this is a democratic process and that it works well. He noted for the benefit of the high school students in attendance that when the previous project was proposed for this site, 400 people came out in opposition. He remarked that if you are going to come out and complain about a project thatyou also have the responsibility to come out in support (of a good project). Gilbert McCoy, 9340 Foothill Boulevard, Rancho Cucamonga, stated he and his wife own Foothill Mobile Manor trailer park. He reported that he is supportive and excited about the new project. He said the project will make a wonderful neighbor and should help with the difficulties they now experience with drug activity on the property and people jumping the fence who cause damage to the trailer park. He added that many of the residents were in attendance in support of the project and ' that he said of the 90 units in the park, there is almost 100 percent support of approval for the project. Jayme Walinga, 11357 Mountain View Drive,#132, Rancho Cucamonga, asked fora definition ofthe term "seller/salvage" and if the home became a Historic landmark, would the designation keep that from happening. Commissioner Stewart explained that it is her understanding that if the home is not sold then the home could be dismantled and sold off in pieces. She noted an example would be that someone could come and buy the bathroom fixtures and someone else might buy the doors or hardware from the house. She said specifically that they are considering relocating the home at 9494 at the least and to consider the feasibility of relocating all of them. She added that the Point of Interest requires the developer to place a commemorative plaque but does not require the preservation or habilitation of the structures. Krystal Hereford, 10730 Church Street,#88, Rancho Cucamonga, asked if the home at 9494 Foothill Boulevard is the largest of the homes in question. She asked what would be accomplished if the six residences are relocated or demolished and if that would that bring in more executives or businesses to the area. Chairman Macias closed the public hearing. Mr. Buller responded and explained why would we remove or demolish several homes. He explained that because these homes front the Old Route 66, it is no longer an appropriate place for single- family detached homes. He added that our goal is to build projects that are good neighbors to the existing residences and businesses and that as old homes are removed,they are replaced with new stock that are designed to be better neighbors. He commented that along Foothill Boulevard, we give a little to get better development for the community. He noted that this project will provide more HPC Minutes -3- April 14, 2004 homes for families and they are designed to be more compatible with the businesses that are now located along Foothill Boulevard and they will benefit the businesses as well. Commissioner Stewart commented that she believes it is a good project although she never really was a proponent of the"motor court"concept, but she is in favor of this one because it is mixed use and Foothill Boulevard needs some attention in that area and the design thematically reflects Route 66 with the motor court concept. She added that a condition of the project requires the developer to place commemorative plaques along Foothill Boulevard that point out the significance of Route 66. She added that she appreciated the neighbors' participation and their support. Commissioner McNiel said he felt is it a good project. Mr. McNiel asked if there is a perimeter block wall between the single-family home section and the condominium section. He also asked the developer to be conscientious about keeping the construction dust down and being mindful of the allowable hours for construction. Mr. Buller reported that the project has been designed to actually integrate the two sections of the project and therefore there is no block wall separating them. Commissioner Fletcher stated that he is in agreement with the other Commissioners and that he is thrilled and glad about the support of the neighbors and it shows the applicant worked well with them and addressed their concerns. He added that the new project ties in with the Route 66 motor courts and the 18 single-family homes provide an excellent transition to the condo project and is excellent for the homeowners along San Bernardino Road. He added that the visual enhancement would help revitalize Foothill Boulevard and the west end part of the City. Commissioner McNiel added that he agrees with Commissioner Stewart in regard to the residence at 9494 Foothill Boulevard and that we should do whatever we canto preserve it. He commented that ' we had several homes in the City we attempted to preserve that were never relocated; one was up on blocks and eventually it fell apart. He commented that he only has a real interest in the Craftsman home. He noted that he understands why we do not have interest in the other homes. Kevin Ennis, Assistant City Attorney, asked if there is any direction or clarification from Engineering and if the changes to the engineering conditions mentioned would meet with their approval. Betty Miller, Associate Engineer, stated that allowing Building Permits to be issued for the model homes prior to the other conditions being met is not an uncommon request and that it would be acceptable. Mr. Buller commented that it has been a"good marriage"with John Laing Homes and commended them for working with the neighborhood and for the neighborhood working with John Laing Homes. He thanked them and Mrs. Kneeley for their hard work. Motion: Moved by McNiel, seconded by Stewart, to recommend approval of Historic Point of Interest DRC2004-00105 and Development District Amendment DRC2003-01037 to be forwarded to the City Council for final action and to approve Tentative Tract Map SUBTT16567,and Development Review DRC2003-01036 and to issue a Mitigated Negative Declaration of environmental impacts and to accept the various revisions to the Conditions of Approval and the Resolutions of Approval as noted during the presentation and public hearing.

He thought that when the property is developed it would be appropriate to recognize Morgan Ranch through naming of a road in that area. He noted that years ago a listing of appropriate historic names was compiled and many of those names have been used but not in the area of the corresponding historic significance. He felt this is a disservice to future generations and he asked that the process be reviewed. Mr. Frost Also observed that he has long maintained it was a travesty when the Historic Preservation Commission was disbanded and its duties were given to the Planning Commissioners because the Commissioners are too busy to do an adequate job for both Commissions. He felt the result is that the City is no longer proactive with respect to historic preservation. Vice Chairman McNiel concurred with W'Frost with respect to-the comment that historic items sometimes get lost in the shuffle because of the other things they have to do. He asked if staff (Larry Henderson) would research and prepare a report for the Commission with respect to street naming. irrri ADJOURNMENT Motion: Moved by McPhail, seconded by Stewart, carried 4-0-1 (Macias absent), to adjourn.

Lori Shriver, Planning Aide, presented the staff report. She indicated that several proposed changes to the Resolution of Approval had been placed in front of the Commissioners to the environmental mitigations including the removal of the requirement for measured drawings of the buildings and clarification of the environmental language and monitoring responsibilities. Paul Hofer, Hofer Properties, LLC, 11248 South Turner Avenue, Ontario, stated he is the applicant and was available to answer any questions. Chairman Macias opened the public hearing. Nacho Gracia, 10364 Humboldt Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, stated he supports the proposal because residents living near the edge of the parcel experience problems with large quantities of ' sand blowing onto their property during the windy season. Hearing no further testimony, Chairman Macias closed the public hearing. Commissioner Stewart commented that she is very sorry to see this historic site go because it is part of our history. She was pleased that there would be an effort to have some of the items of historical value preserved for a museum. She requested that when it comes time to place the historical placard, that historical items could be incorporated with that. She requested that it be more than a bronze plaque inlaid into a stone. Commissioner Fletcher also asked that perhaps historical items could be incorporated into future development in addition to the plaque. He indicated a resident asked him why the City would make an historic designation if the buildings are to be tom down. He commented that the buildings have been there for many years and many are unaware that old winery buildings were there. He noted they are partially hidden by the trees and hard to see when driving by. He remarked that until someone takes the time to stop and point out the history and importance, people might not knowthe significance. He supported the designation. Commissioner McPhail concurred and remarked it was sad to lose some of the buildings but unfortunately they have not been maintained and are a safety hazard. She commented that future development should reflect the architecture and history of the old winery to create a special place. Chairman Macias commented that it was the general consensus of the Commissioners that something more than a standard bronze plaque should be used to mark the site. He supported the designation.. Motion: Moved by Stewart, seconded by Fletcher, to recommend issuance of a Negative Declaration and to adopt the resolution approving Historic Point Of Interest Designation DRC2003-01048, as amended regarding environmental clarification.

HPC Minutes -2- August 13, 2003 Chairman Macias opened the public hearing. Jim Manning, Manning Homes, 20151 SW Birch Street, Suite 150, Newport Beach, gave a brief review and summary of the proposed landscape plan, noting the new landscaping around the historic home will be in the orchard style including wrought iron gates, a rose garden, and pear trees. He reported that he plans to re-roof, re-paint, and restore the exterior of the historic home. He commented that the proposed bam mimics the existing bam and the design features a 3-car garage. Commissioner McNiel asked about the current condition of the home. Mr. Manning reported that the home is"beat up,"the interior lacks many of the historic elements that would have been found in the original home. He noted it is inhabitable at this time but there are some nice moldings and the original banister. Commissioner McNiel asked if the home is preservable. Mr. Manning indicated that only some of it is. Commissioner Fletcher asked if the interior is restorable. Mr. Manning stated that they will make the house habitable but they anticipate the new owners will want to do"their own thing." He added that the new landscaping resembles that found on the Isaac Lord historic property. Commissioner McNiel asked the lot size. Mr. Manning replied it is about 20,000 square feet. Commissioner Fletcher asked the square footage of the home. Mr. Manning responded it is about 2,000 square feet and currently has a basement, but when it is moved, it will be placed on a new raised foundation. Chairman Macias closed the public hearing. Commissioner Stewart supported the plan and said she applauds the developerfor providing a fitting landscape. She said she is happy with the details.

PUBLIC HEARINGS LANDMARK DESIGNATION DRC2003-00648 —CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA-A request to designate the Goeditz property as a Designated Local Landmark, located at 9893 Highland Avenue- APN: 1076-051-02 and 03. Lori Shriver, Planning Aide gave the staff report and noted that a condition has been added requiring Planning Staff to review the final landscape plans before they go out to bid. She also noted that the swimming pool has been excluded from the historic value of the property and therefore the wording in the Resolution of Approval will be modified to reflect the deletion. Chairman Macias opened the public hearing. Scott Dexter, representing the Brethren in Christ Church, located adjacent to the property in question, stated that because of vacations and staff leaves, he has not had the opportunity to thoroughly review the City's conditions. He indicated that they just received a copy of the staff report today. He added that he has questions about the project and that he preferred not to take the Commission's time during the meeting to have a discussion and therefore requested a continuance to allow time for a thorough review. Commissioner Stewart asked what the church's intentions are for the property. Mr. Dexter stated that they are preparing a Master Plan and that the likely uses would be as a retreat site and for other uses for their church. He stated that they would prefer a continuance so that they can refine their plans and to further discuss the project with Caltrans. Commissioner McNiel stated that with a Landmark Designation, it places the property in a reduced tax status and also some restrictions may apply to its future use. He surmised that the church is asking for a continuance on the basis of the speculation for its future use as it pertains to the church. He asked for counsel to comment on the legitimacy of their position. Mr. Dexter stated that his request is for a short extension so that they can verify that the maps attached to the staff report are consistent with their understanding of how the property would be transferred to the church. He also stated that they had not reviewed the conditions of approval and that they want to be sure they are consistent with their understanding of the condition of the property. He added that he did not feel it would prejudice the City to do so. Kevin Ennis,Assistant City Attorney, stated the issue before the Commission in connection with Mr. Dexter's request is whether or not the church as a potential purchaser would be able to live with the restrictions of having the residence, garage, mature landscaping and stone walls preserved in their original configuration and condition given their proposed Master Plan. He commented that it sounds like they need to reconcile their plan with the possibility of having these elements restricted from modification. He indicated a continuance is at the Commission's discretion. Commissioner McNiel asked if Mr. Dexter's request applies to this designation,or if it really applies to their decision to purchase the property. Mr. Ennis stated that if these components are designated as a landmark, then if their Master Plan conflicts with the designation, then their Master Plan will have to be modified. He noted that the issue would be if their plan of acquisition contemplates this, and if it does not, then they would have to apply for modification. Mr. Ennis concluded that it is the Commission's task to determine if the property meets the designation criteria and if they can make those findings then it is in the Commissions discretion and power to make the designation. Chairman Macias stated that the designation of the property does not necessarily preclude what they want to do. Commissioner Stewart asked if the church is close to actually acquiring the property. Mr. Dexter stated they are very close and that they enjoy a good working relationship with the City, Caltrans and SANBAG and that he felt it unfortunate that they could not discuss the designation with staff prior to the meeting. He added that the designation could potentially delay the negotiations. He added that if the City chooses to adopt the Landmark Designation then he noted for the record that HPC Minutes -2- July 23, 2003 the church would reserve its rights under the Government Code section that exempts churches under the Landmark Preservation Ordinance. He again asked for a continuance. Larry Henderson, Principal Planner, clarified that the Commission's action is not final and is only a recommendation to the City Council and that it would be approximately 4 weeks before the Council would take final action giving staff time to discuss it with the church. He also noted that the State Office of Historic Preservation has pushed this forward and they feel that before negotiations for the purchase of the property are concluded that it must go through the Local Landmark process and therefore have some type of protection. He added that negotiations would be ongoing with Caltrans even with the action taken this evening. Mr. Dexter noted that the church is not objecting to the Landmark Designation. Mr. Ennis noted that the church is not the current owner of the property and that it applies to Caltrans as the property owner. Hearing no further comments, Chairman Macias closed the public hearing. Commissioner McNiel stated the designation makes sense. He commented on the historic value and significance of the property for the community. He noted that he feels the usability of it for the church's benefit is immaterial. Commissioner Stewart concurred with Commissioner McNiel's comments and moved to recommend approval of the designation as amended by staff. ' Chairman Macias agreed with his colleagues and reiterated that the time until the final action by the City Council will not be detrimental to the church. He noted that the Commission has in the past has been very supportive of this type of action.

Kirk Pankretz, 7938 Etiwanda Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, stated he rents the house in question. He did not want the house destroyed and felt it has historical value. Gwen Frost, 12996 Victoria Street, Rancho Cucamonga, stated she is a newly elected Board Member of the Etiwanda Historical Society. She indicated she hates to see older houses being tom down and she hoped something could be done to save the house. Chairman McNiel asked if the Historical Society had done any research on the house. Mr. Pankretz stated his wife was instrumental in getting them into the house because they saw the house deteriorating. He asked if there was not supposed to be a study to determine who had lived in the house. Chairman McNiel responded that a study had already been done that looked at that aspect. There were no further public comments. Commissioner Mannerino stated he understands that not everything can be saved and not everything has historical significance. He questioned the need for expediency to allow removal of the house. He felt the Etiwanda Historical Society should have had a chance to look at the house. Brad Buller, City Planner, indicated the Etiwanda Historical Society had been notified and was aware of the proposed action before the Commission. He said he had made a personal call to Jim and Marsha Banks because he knew they had been considering adding a second structure to their property and he told them this structure may be available. Mr. Buller indicated the house will have to be moved or demolished in order to start the development project but he did not know the developer's timeline. With respect to the proposed apartment complex that would be coming before the Commission, Chairman McNiel noted this property has vacant land on both sides. He asked how far north and ' south the project will be built. Mr. Coury stated an application is in process. Mr. Buller stated the Commission approved the project that surrounds the site earlier this year. Chairman McNiel asked if this is an in-fill project. Commissioner Stewart believed the house has had a number of structural changes. Mr. Coury stated changes were made to the front porch and garage. Commissioner Stewart felt the structure has age, but not other criteria to be designated a historical landmark. She indicated she understood the tenants'position and agreed there is some sentimental value. Commissioner Tolstoy felt the appearance of the house is not one of age with the exception of the foundation,which is rock. He noted the chimney is not even rock. He acknowledged that the house was built in the 1930s but said it appears like it was built in the 1940s or early 1950s. He did not feel there are significant criteria to designate it a landmark. Commissioner Mannerino felt the Etiwanda Historical Society is a rather prudent group and he noted the Society had not expressed an opinion that the house needs to be saved. Motion: Moved by Mannerino, seconded by Tolstoy, to direct staff to update the City Historic Site List to change the status of 7938 Etiwanda Avenue to Survey Determined Insignificant.

He stated Gino Filipi, the winery tenant, supports staffs recommendation, as it is in keeping with future development plans for the winery. Commissioner Tolstoy asked if there are any plans as to what will happen to the other metal buildings on the property. Mr. Pitassi replied they will ultimately be removed as they are not suitable for occupancy. He stated they have no value and are not historically significant. Hearing no further testimony, Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing. Commissioner Mannerino supported staffs recommendation to remove the sheds. Commissioner Tolstoy suggested that a trellis be added along the west wall to soften the facade following removal of the sheds and siding installation.

FOOTHILL BOULEVARD/ROUTE 66 VISUAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT—CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA-Review the Draft Historical Resources Clearance Report for Foothill Boulevard between Grove and Vineyard Avenues and direct Staff to update the City Historic Site List. Larry Henderson, Principal Planner, presented the staff report. He said the most significant finding was that the current railway bridge overpass is not the original bridge, but was constructed during a widening project in 1929, at which time the original 1913 bridge was removed. He observed there are two other 1913 bridges intact elsewhere in the City;therefore, it is recommended that the bridge on Foothill Boulevard be a Historic Point of Interest rather than a Landmark. Chairman McNiel asked what the timeline is for the Foothill Boulevard widening project. Mr. Henderson replied it is a two-year project. Chairman McNiel asked if there were any enlightening findings in the course of the investigation. Mr. Henderson responded not as significant as the bridge. He said there were several sites that had ' not been identified in the past such as the Red Hill Coffee Shop and several houses on Red Hill Country Club Drive that were identified,which do not appearto be individually historic at this time but perhaps could be part of an historic district as the houses get older. Chairman McNiel opened the public hearing. Hearing no comments, he closed the hearing. Commissioner Mannerino stated he had not known the original Magic Lamp building was built in 1941.

LANDMARK DESIGNATION DRC2001-00369-JOSEPH AND J. L.WALKER-An application to designate the Krysto Ranch House and property as a Historic Landmark, located at 5917 Archibald Avenue-APN: 201-152-15. Shonda Bello, Planning Aide, gave the staff report. Chairman McNiel asked if there were any comments or questions on the report. Commissioner Tolstoy commented that Ms. Bello did an exceptionaljob on researching the historical information for the report. Chairman McNiel opened the public hearing and explained that the item before the Commission is a Landmark Designation for the purpose of preserving the historical integrity of the structure and that no other applications have been submitted for the property to date. Annette DeBellefaille, P.O. Box 1853, Lake Arrowhead, stated she was speaking on behalf of the Citizens for Responsible Planning and Neighborhood Preservation, also represented by the law offices of James D.Aguilera. She presented a sealed letter from James D.Aguilera to the Secretary for the record. Ms. DeBellefaille then reviewed the concerns noted in the letter including Mr. Aguilera's contention that the City staff is fully aware of the applicant's intent to apply for a Conditional Use Permit for the purpose of using the property commercially. She noted the Very Low Residential zoning of the property and that designated historical structures could be used for"other than" residential purposes, subject to a Conditional Use Permit. She indicated her belief that City staff is helping the owners "jump start"a commercial property to get around a residential use. She contended that the CEQA categorical exemption does not apply because of the City's prior knowledge of the applicant's intent to apply for a Conditional Use Permit for a non-residential use. She added that neighbors have complained about noise, traffic and parking associated with receptions held on the property. She stated that their association educates elected officials about CEQA requirements to ensure the statute is followed and supports historic preservation and seeks to avoid encroachment of noncompatable uses into residential neighborhoods. She claimed that an EIR is required now and asked that the Historic Landmark Designation be declined forthe time being until Mr. Aguilera's letter is reviewed and that the issue be discussed with the City s legal counsel. Hearing no further comment, Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing. Kevin Ennis, Assistant City Attorney, stated that the matter of the Landmark Designation is sent to the City Council as a recommendation and that City Council will make the final determination. He added that the Code requires findings with respect to that designation, which are found both in the staff report and resolution regarding the history, architecture and prior use of the structure. He added that the Historic Preservation Commission only makes a determination as to whether the structure meets those criteria and that if future applications are made,then those applications will be considered at that time. He explained that the applicant is not required to submit all applications at one time and that staff is not aware of other applications at this time and no other applications have ' been submitted. He noted that the property does qualify for the exemption for the Landmark Designation action under the CEQA guidelines. He added that if and when applications for an alternate use are submitted, then the use would have to be independently analyzed for CEQA. Chairman McNiel asked, of the Designated Historic Landmarks in the City, how many are used for commercial purposes. Ms. Bello responded that 6 or 7 of the 65 sites are used commercially, approximately 10 percent. Chairman McNiel stated that based upon his experience, the designation of a property as a Historic Landmark does not necessarily mean it will then be approved for a commercial use. Brad Buller, City Planner, explained that until project applications are received,the only matter before the Commission is the Landmark Designation and that staff has explained the meaning of the designation to the applicant and that they are aware that alternate uses are available under that designation, but that is considered a separate matter. He added that the Commission would pursue the designation status because of the facts presented, but that any other uses forthe property will be within the purview of the Historic Preservation Commission and the City Council. Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing and concurred that because of the history and data provided about the property, it certainly qualifies for Landmark Designation. Commissioner Tolstoy added that when the owners of the Demens/Tolstoy house requested a commercial use they were turned down and that the Landmark Designation does not guarantee approval for another use. HPC Minutes -2- August 8, 2001 Brad Buller explained that if any applications for other uses are received, the surrounding residents to the property will be noticed and the meetings will be open to the public. He added that a neighborhood meeting would also be held and that staff, the Commission, and the City Council cares ' about the concerns of the residents surrounding the property and that public input is vital. He noted that because of the agricultural heritage of the City, structures like this one are often found scattered around in residential neighborhoods. Kevin Ennis emphasized that the action is a recommendation and that City Council makes the final action. Brad Buller added what a pleasure it has been to have Shonda Bello working with us as a Planning Aide. He added that she has been an asset to the Planning Division, especially with her work on historical issues. Motion: Moved by Macias, seconded by Stewart, carried—4-0-1 (Mannerino absent), to approve the recommendation forthe"Krysto House"as a Historic Landmark and for the item to be forwarded to the City Council for final action. R# iRt DIRECTOR'S REPORTS B. ANNUAL UPDATE OF HISTORIC PRESERVATION ACTIVITIES—Oral report. Shonda Bello, Planning Aide gave a Power Point presentation highlighting the activities of the Historic Planning Commission this past year.

He opened the public hearing. An anonymous lady in the audience asked if the Commission would be continuing the matter. Chairman McNiel responded affirmatively. Motion: Moved by Tolstoy, seconded by Mannerino, to continue Landmark Designation DRC2001-00337 to an unspecified date and to accept the applicant's withdrawal of Item B. Motion carried by the following vote: AYES: MACIAS, MANNERINO, MCNIEL, STEWART, TOLSTOY NOES: NONE ABSENT: NONE - carried PUBLIC COMMENTS Debbie Gilson, 6626 Etiwanda Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, expressed concern regarding the cavalier attitude of the Commission in considering an amendment to the Etiwanda Specific Plan. She felt the transfer of density was not appropriate and asked if the entire area was being rezoned. She said the Etiwanda Specific Plan is the rulebook designed to safeguard the environmental ' conditions and the uniqueness of Etiwanda. She thought that the negative impacts of development were considered when the Plan was passed in 1983 and it should not be changed and developers should bend to the rulebook. She feared that if the Plan is changed, it will erode the community. Chairman McNiel responded that all specific plans are living documents,which are not rigid and have room for flexibility. He stated that if a rigid rulebook were established for development, it would stifle all development. He agreed the City needs to move forth with caution and needs to consider what was adopted in 1983 but said the document is not etched in stone.

Brad Buller, City Planner, suggested that Chairman McNiel call the Planning Commission meeting to order and hear items A, B, and C with Historic Preservation Commission items A and B. Debra Meier, Contract Planner, presented the staff report. Chairman McNiel asked if it was suggested that the items be continued to a specific date. Ms. Meier responded that was not known. Commissioner Mannerino asked if it was suggested that the Commission have a discussion without knowing which submission the applicant intends to pursue. He questioned what had been submitted and what the Commission had seen. Commissioner Macias concurred with Commission Mannerino that he did not wish to waste the Commission's time or the public's time. Chairman McNiel opened the public hearing. Rick Gomez, Forma, 17500 Red Hill Drive, Suite 100, Irvine, stated he was representing Colorado Pacific. He said they would like to move forward with the original application before the Commission , but they presented an alternate option to address some of the concerns raised by the residents so that time would not be lost. Commissioner Mannerino stated he was confused. He asked if the applicant intends to sit down with staff and the community. He suggested that the matter come to the Commission after that meeting had taken place. Mr. Gomez responded they prefer the original project which was presented in the package. He suggested that the Commission listen to public testimony and direct the applicant to work with staff and the community if it feels the concerns raised by the public would warrant that direction. Commissioner Mannerino didn't feel the Commission could give proper direction. He felt it was premature to hear testimony and he thought it was a hollow gesture since the applicant had submitted an alternate plan different from what was on the agenda. Chairman McNiel commented the applicant presented a project through the Design Review Committee and Technical Review Committee and then met with the local community, at which time it appears some red flags were raised. He observed that an alternate plan was then submitted which has not been processed but the applicant has asked the Commission to proceed with the original plan submitted. He agreed it may be a moot point. Commissioner Tolstoy asked if the public had an opportunity to look at the alternate plan in a public meeting. Mr. Gomez responded negatively. He explained it had been discussed with a few individuals but the residents had not seen it collectively. He said Colorado Pacific was trying to move forward rapidly and he apologized for any confusion. HPC Minutes -2- July 11, 2001 Commissioner Tolstoy indicated he understood there was a mix-up with the meeting room schedule at the first public meeting with the residents and they met on the sidewalk. Mr. Gomez confirmed that was correct. He said the School District would not let them meet on the property, so they met with the residents on the sidewalk. Commissioner Tolstoy said he understood, but he did not feel that was the same as having a sit- down meeting. He noted the City always recommends that developers have a neighborhood meeting to explain the project. He thought they should have the public meeting first and he did not want to hear the objections of residents if the project is not going to be processed as submitted. Mr. Gomez agreed the opportunity to hear from the public was less than optimal. He indicated they distributed handouts with graphics and a site map to the 20-25 people who showed up. Commissioner Macias asked if the new alternative would change the environmental assessment of the project. Ms. Meier responded that the impacts would be less; therefore, the Initial Study would more than address them. Commissioner Macias said there was clearly some confusion and that the applicant had not conducted a valid meeting with the residents. He agreed with Commissioner Mannerino that it was a moot point, but he felt it was the duty of the Commission to hear public testimony. Commissioner Stewart agreed with Commissioner Macias. Mr. Gomez stated the project had been advertised as a public hearing and he said the applicant ' would like to have the hearing. Motion: Moved by Mannerino, seconded by Macias, to continue the items along with the public testimony until staff had an opportunity to digest both plans. Commissioner Mannerino suggested that the public should hold theirtestimony unless they could not be at the meeting at the continued date. Chairman McNiel asked for direction from counsel since public testimony had not been taken and there had been no presentation by the developer. Kevin Ennis, Assistant City Attorney, stated the Commission could legally continue the matter to another date, or to an unspecified date if re-advertised, He indicated the Commission could direct the applicant to hold a public meeting. He said the Commission could open the public hearing and continue the matter without taking any testimony whatsoever. Commissioner Macias said he seconded Commissioner Mannerino's motion because he wanted the public to have an opportunity to attend a public neighborhood meeting. Mr. Ennis said it was his understanding the motion was to authorize limited public testimony only from those individuals who felt they could not come back to a future meeting after the community meeting. He stated that if the applicant withdraws the application, that would make the matter moot. He noted the City would have to act on the application as originally submitted unless the applicant withdraws it or specifies a modification. Brad Buller, City Planner, confirmed that a new plan had been submitted to the City on Tuesday and staff had distributed it to other departments but there had not been time for the plan to be reviewed as yet. He said staff felt it would be fair for the Commission to continue the items but also allow the HPC Minutes -3- July 11, 2001 residents to comment. He suggested a neighborhood meeting be held within seven days and the matter be continued for two weeks. He said the developer could also withdraw their application and re-advertise for a new hearing. Commissioner Mannerino stated he would modify his motion to continue the items to July 25,2001. Commissioner Macias amended the second. Commissioner Tolstoy asked if a two-week continuance would be sufficient. Mr. Buller thought the applicant could hold a meeting, but he wasn't sure if the residents could meet within a week. He said there should be some notice regarding the meeting. Commissioner Tolstoy suggested the matter be continued for four weeks so that staff would have an opportunity to prepare a staff report including the results of the neighborhood meeting. Commissioner Macias also questioned if there was enough time for staff to evaluate the project and include the evaluation in the agenda packets. Chairman McNiel felt there would be sufficient time if the applicant proceeds with what was originally proposed. Commissioner Stewart felt there was so much new information that the matter must be continued. She noted the developer had expressed a desire to process their original proposal. She wanted to hear some testimony from the residents regarding their concerns. Commissioner Mannerino felt the applicant could conduct a community meeting and would then know in two weeks if they wish to go forward with the original proposal. He said the items could ' again be continued if the project was not ready at that time. Mr. Gomez said they would like to meet with the residents. Commissioner Mannerino requested that residents not speak if they would be able to attend the July 25, 2001, meeting.

She stated they had been told tonight's meeting would not happen and they were going to go with a new plan. She felt there should only be 65 homes instead of the 139 they were requesting. David Wong, 132021 Vista Street, Rancho Cucamonga, stated he is just south of the proposed development. He believed the developer had not cleared the meeting at the school and said they were then advised another meeting would be held in a tent. He said about 30 residents showed up but the developer did not. He acknowledged that a tract will be built but said the developer informed them that the previously approved plan would be built. He indicated his greatest concern was not density, but drainage. He questioned what would happen with the water coming down from the catch basin. He said the School Board is concerned about where the water will go and felt a HPC Minutes -4- July 11, 2001 drainage system is need to take the water out. He questioned the number of phases and asked how much the lives of existing residents will be disrupted. Enrique Munol, 6658 Etiwanda Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, stated that if a different set of plans is presented in the future, the residents have the right to speak out again. He felt it was a waste of everyone's time to have the hearing when the developer did not even know what the plan will be. Laurette Allen, 13054 Larrera Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, expressed concern that waterwill drain down Pecan Avenue. She reported that a recent 20-minute rainstorm resulted in standing water from curb to curb. She said her second concern was traffic. She felt there will be unbearable traffic from 2:30-3:30 p.m. with the number of students in the area. She believed that the Kemp House should be restored to its former glory if it is moved. She preferred a park on Etiwanda Avenue. Ms. Allen noted that the area is currently zoned for up to two houses per acre and she felt that should be the maximum permitted. She said there had been two meetings of the residents with 60 people showing up at them. Candice Fowler, 13205 Catalpa Street, Rancho Cucamonga, stated that meetings had been called on two separate nights. She said that residents showed up but the developer had not. She thought a neighborhood meeting should be held. She believed most residents want lower density. She said they have been promised a number of things by Mr. Brose including only 90 homes and a park. Ishmael Flores, 13060 Vista Street, Rancho Cucamonga, expressed concern about the drainage basin which will be built directly behind his fence. He did not feel his family will be safe if the basin is built there. He also was concerned about children traveling on Highland Avenue to and from school. Jim Banks, 13181 Victoria Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, concurred with the other residents ' regarding concerns about drainage, traffic, and the historic house. He stated that the Etiwanda Specific Plan allows for greater density if certain amenities are created and the intent was to keep the amenity with the density. He cautioned against separating the amenity from the density and hoped that a distance limit would be imposed if the City should approve the Etiwanda Specific Plan Amendment. : wwww The Historic Preservation Commission recessed from 8:03 p.m. to 8:11 p.m. w w w w w PUBLIC COMMENTS There were no public comments at this time. w w w w w COMMISSION BUSINESS There was no additional Commission business. • wwww ADJOURNMENT t Motion: Moved by Mannerino, seconded by Tolstoy, carried 5-0, to adjourn.

She said when the property was reviewed in 1990, the only historical significance was the wooden bridge which has since been replaced with concrete and wrought iron by Caltrans.

UPDATE OF THE HISTORIC LANDMARK AND POINT OF INTEREST PLAQUE PROGRAM Shonda Bello, Planning Aide, presented the report. Commissioner Macias asked if the plaque and mailbox would face the street or the residence. Ms. Bello stated it would face the street. ' Commissioner Stewart asked if the plaque could be mounted in some otherway and where it would be placed, or if the homeowner would be limited to the mailbox presentation. Ms. Bello replied that the ownerwould have a choice of mounting methods; i.e., on the house or on their own mailbox. Chairman McNiel asked if that decision is subject to approval. Brad Buller, City Planner, stated that it is subject to approval. Commissioner Tolstoy interjected that he felt the location of the plaque should be subject to approval because the plaque should be located where the public can see it, rather than mounted on the house, possibly hidden by bushes. Chairman McNiel asked if any information about the historic property would be on the plaque other than the name of the site. Ms. Bello replied only the name would be on the plaque. Chairman McNiel asked if additional information could be added to the plaque. He expressed concern that someone visiting the City might see the plaque, but not know why it was placed without additional information or history given on the plaque. Mr. Buller stated that the goal was to come up with suitable identifiable markers for all the sites that , are legible and stay within the budget of$20,000. He added that this is the initial start up program that the City will support, and they can look at alternatives that offer more of a description at a later date. He added that the homeowner is given the option to have a larger plaque on a large rock at their expense. Chairman McNiel asked if additional information could be placed on the other sides of the mailbox or if something else could be done that would be more descriptive of the property. Mr. Buller noted that they could go back to the contractor and ask if additional information could be added to plaques on additional sides of the mailbox. Chairman McNiel replied that he felt that makes more sense because the plaque being presented does not give much information. Commission Tolstoy suggested that the plaque could have an additional statement that states further information about the site can be obtained at City Hall, and that way people would at least know where they could find out more information about the site even if it is in smaller letters. He also said that he appreciates the help of service organizations that volunteer to help with the installation of these projects, such as the Boy Scouts of America, but that he wants the plaques installed with some City help and supervision to ensure a quality job. Commissioner Tolstoy also suggested that if there are sites being improved by a developer, the plaque for those sites should be large and should be required as part of their conditions. He noted specific sites such as the post office commissioned by Lincoln and where the old Campos cottages were on Foothill Boulevard. Mr. Buller responded that the developers for commercial projects are required to go far beyond this standard plaque program. . HPC Minutes -2- June 14, 2000 1 Commissioner Tolstoy felt the requirement should be written in as part of this program and into the ' agreement. Commissioner Macias stated that a caveat is needed to preclude a developer of a commercial project from attempting to minimize his effort by using this minimal program as opposed to what Commissioner Tolstoy suggested; a larger, more prominent plaque display. Mr. Buller asserted that every project is subject to review by the Commission and that the City can require whatever level of mitigation and identification of historic landmarks is deemed appropriate. Commissioner Macias asked if the mailbox was usable. Mr. Buller stated that it may or may not be. Commissioner Tolstoy then asked if it should only be used for residential historic sites. Mr. Buller replied that there are some commercial uses of residential homes that could use them, but that a different plaque system would be used in a commercial center. Commissioner Tolstoy pointed out as an example, the winery on Haven Avenue could for some reason in the future become a housing tract, and if it did, a plaque should be placed in the housing tract. He felt that there are some instances where an important site could be located in a residential area. Mr. Buller pointed out that this example applies at the Fu-Mai tract where a labor camp once stood, ' and subsequently'the residential project was conditioned to create an entry element that would include a plaque and architectural feature. Commissioner Tolstoy expressed concern that they should be careful to cover all the bases when they discuss historic sites. Mr. Buller commented that they would take into consideration their suggestions about ensuring a quality installation and that they would also look into adding more text to the plaques where feasible and to also note that this program does not apply to commercial designation projects Motion: Moved by Tolstoy, seconded by Mannerino, to adopt the program with the noted changes and additions to have City staff supervise the installation, investigate plaques that can accommodate more information, and review the placement of the plaques if the homeowner chooses not to use the mailbox and to exclude commercial projects from this program.

Chairman McNiel acknowledged the request and received agreement from the other commissioners to hear Historic Land mark,Designation 99-02 within the context of the Planning Commission agenda. Chairman McNiel opened the Public Hearing and tabled the item until it could be heard with the related General Plan Amendment 99-02, Development District Amendment 99-02 and Conditional Use Permit 99-08. PUBLIC COMMENTS COMMISSION BUSINESS There was no additional Commission business. The Historic Preservation Commission recessed to the Planning Commission meeting from 7:05 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. PUBLIC HEARINGS A. HISTORIC LANDMARK DESIGNATION 99-02 CURRY BRANDAW ARCHITECTS - An application to designate the Beckley house as a Local Landmark, located on the southeast comer of Hermosa Avenue and 19th Street at 6729 Hermosa Avenue-APN: 1076-111-09. Related files: Pre-Application Review 98-08, General Plan Amendment 99-02, Development District Amendment 99-02, and Conditional Use Permit 99-08. Chairman McNiel reminded the Commissioners that they had agreed to hear Item A from the Historic Preservation agenda, Historic Landmark Designation 99-02, in conjunction with General Plan Amendment 99-02, Development District Amendment 99-02, and Conditional Use Permit 99-08. Sal Salazar, Associate Planner, presented the staff report and noted that he had received favorable calls from neighbors and that one resident in opposition of the project was in attendance. Chairman McNiel opened the public hearing. Garth Brandaw, Holiday Retirement Homes, 2260 McGilchrist Street, SE, Suite 100, Salem, Oregon, stated their company operates 220 retirement facilities. He commented that he felt their plans are compatible with the other uses surrounding the project and is pleased with the fact that they had been able to provide over 50 percent open space on the developed site as well as being able to intertwine the historic residence and adjacent orange grove in with the development. He added they had kept a strong residential scale to the project and that they were not nearly as ' institutional as other facilities of this kind. Mark Hodbek, 10089 Mignonette, Rancho Cucamonga, raised concern about the Initial Study and the related impacts. He thought this project will change the character of the neighborhood. He noted that the PUD, apartments, and the park have all impacted the tract on the west side of Hermosa and he did not like the idea of adding more density to the area. He felt this facility is a commercial enterprise and that it would violate the current zoning for the site and asked for clarification of the same. He thought public services will be significantly impacted because there is no control of the traffic and he felt the noise impact will be severe. He added that he had counted 13 burned out street lights and that he felt the existing neighborhood had been ignored and dumped on. He concluded by saying he felt the project does not reflect, or is sensitive to, the existing neighborhood. Commissioner Macias asked how the residents would get around town. Mr. Brandaw said that most of the residents are in their seventies or early eighties and that they most likely would be living alone and only about 20 percent of them would still be driving and their trips would be limited. He indicated that even if there are 2 persons in each suite, the project would still have fewer trips than what would be used by 23 single family dwellings. He added that the trip times for these residents is not typically during peak periods and with only 12-16 staff members, the parking demands are low. Mike Robbins, 9920 19th Street, Rancho Cucamonga, reported that the temple is located near another facility of this kind and that they have been a good neighbor and that his experience with this type of use has been good. HPC Minutes -2- June 9, 1999 Mike Jumper, 666 Brissac Place, Rancho Cucamonga, asked how many suites would be in the facility. ' Mr. Brandaw indicated 114 suites. Mr. Jumper asked how you get 114 suites with a zoning of only 4-8 dwelling units per acre and felt this might be like another apartment building with more people per acre. He added that he did not like zoning changes. Brad Buller, City Planner stated that some sites can have alternative land uses and that it may not be solely based upon density depending upon the use and that the number of rooms is not related to the land use category. He explained that with a Conditional Use Permit, which is discretionary, the Planning Commission evaluates the project to see if it fits into the existing neighborhood. He stated this project would not be permitted under the Low Residential category but that it can be permitted under the Low-Medium Residential category. Chairman McNiel commented that his Mother-in-law had resided in this kind of facility for 3-4 years and that few people came to visit. He pointed out that the people there were always quiet,trouble free,that they caused no problems and that it was actually a benefit to the neighborhood because there were no calls about loud music, graffiti, or extra noise in the street. He confirmed his belief that this is a good use. Mr. Jumper acknowledged the point was well taken but then asked what would happen if the developer left and if the building could become apartments or some other use at a later time or if more units could be added at a later time. He added that he wished the property could stay the way it is or become single family homes. ' Mr. Buller advised him that this use could not be modified and that the Conditional Use Permit would be revoked under those circumstances. Hubert Surki, 10223 19th Street, Rancho Cucamonga, stated that he lives just east of this development and that he never received notification. He reported the traffic on 19th Street is very noisy especially at rush hour and with big rigs traveling 19th Street all day long. He cited noise from the school traffic as well as the park traffic would not be pleasing to the residents of this facility. He asked how far from 19th Street the facility would be as well as how many parking spaces would be available. Mr. Salazar responded by saying that sound mitigation would be in place and that a noise study would be required. He also stated that one parking space for every 4 beds were required totaling 29 required spaces and that 67 spaces are provided, so that even if there were 2 beds per suite, it would exceed the requirement. Mr. Buller mentioned that Mr. Surki would have liked the developer to approach him and ask him his thoughts about the project. He recalled meeting Mr. Surki at the previous Planning Commission meeting and noted that Mr. Surki did receive the notice of the public hearing but was hoping to meet the developer and review the plans. Rich Underwood, 10203 Ring Avenue, Rancho Cucamonga, commented that he liked the look of ' the project but wanted to know the age requirements for the residents and if there will be CC&Rs. He also commented that one gets used to the noise but that he hopes the traffic will lighten up after the freeway is completed, relieving some of the high use travel on 19th Street. HPC Minutes -3- June 9, 1999 Mr. Brandaw stated that the lease agreement states 65 years of age as the minimum but due to ADA regulations, they have to make a reasonable accommodation if for example an older person has a spouse under the age of 65. He added that their lease provides three meals per day, ' transportation, and housekeeping and that the age of the residents is self regulating because with those kinds of services, younger folks would generally not want to live there. Chairman McNiel asked if it is based more upon their ability to function. Mr. Brandaw replied that the health of the resident is determined and taken into account. Mr. Buller noted that a condition could be placed stipulating seniors 65 years of age and above to help regulate,but that since it is a Conditional Use Permit,we can consider additional conditions at a later time if it should become a problem. Chairman McNiel commented on the activities in the adjacent park and pointed out that another facility of this type is located next to Red Hill Park on Base Line Road, which is a very busy street. He remarked that the seniors in that facility often sit on their balconies and watch the baseball games. He also noted that the noise study had not yet been completed. Commissioner Macias concluded that the residents that live there will adjust to their community just as well as anyone else. He said it is their choice to live there, it is their choice to open or close the windows,watch tv inside, or go outside and listen to the noise. He felt they are not going there to die but are going to go there to enjoy the remainder of their lives and they will adjust to their community. Hearing no further comments, Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing. ' Commissioner Stewart reported that she and Commissioner Tolstoy sat on Design Review together for this project. She asserted that the applicant was careful to design the project to be compatible with the neighborhood and that more senior housing is an identified need in Rancho Cucamonga. She also noted that typically the residents travel in groups and that they use very few cars and that with the land use change there is actually more open space than with some other use. She remarked that this applicant was even willing to preserve a historic home and that the Conditional Use Permit allows the Planning Commission leverage and that it can be revoked later if it became necessary. Motion: Moved by Stewart, seconded by Macias to recommend issuance of a Negative Declaration of Environmental impacts and to adopt the resolutions recommending that the City Council approve Historic Landmark Designation 99-02, General Plan Amendment 99-02, Development District Amendment 99-02,and Conditional Use Permit 99-08.
