MUNICIPAL CODE UPDATE
Residential Fire Sprinkler Ordinance
Protecting lives and property
On December lOth of last year, the
City's Residential Fire Sprinkler
Ordinance became effective, wl�ich
required all new or substantially
reconstructed dwelling units to be
provided with automatic fire sprinklers.
This action by the City Council brought
Rancho Cucamonga into the mainstream
of a movement among governmental
jurisdictions, particularly in California, to
provide an added level of fire safety for
residential properties. As the current lull
in construction eases and building
activity resumes, home seekers in the
community will begin to see visible signs
of the sprinkler installations.
For over 100 years automatic sprinkler
systems have proven their effectiveness
in protecting lives and property from fire
in hotels, stores, schools, factories, and
office buildings. Until recently, however,
automatic sprinklers were not available
for installation in homes, and commercial
sprinklers were generally too slow in
acHvating to combat the rapid spread of
flames in most house fires.
In ]975, the first national residential
fire sprinkler standard was published
based on commercial applications, and
aimed principally at property loss
reduction. Since life-safety issues were
not well addressed, and the system costs
were relatively high, few systems were
installed under this standard.
In ]980, a revised standard was
published requiring quick response
sprinkler heads which achieved the most
important feature of residential
sprinklers, that of lifesaving. Each head
in a residential system operates
independently from others in the system
and diffuses water in an umbrella shaped
spray which hits high on the walls. This
creates a misting pattern that helps
diffuse and suppress carbon monoxide
and other gases, retards temperature
build-up, and extinguishes the flames in
the room before the space becomes
untenable for humans.
Residential sprinkler systems IZave
been slow to gain acceptance among
�

enhmices the qunlit� o% liJe for Rnncho '
Cucmnonyn msidcnts.
�
--- ----- ----- -- - - ----�
homeowners, in part, because of a
generally held misconception that fire
sprinklers are prone to malfunction and
the mistaken assumption that a false
alarm will result in a great deal of water
damage. A false alarm where no 11eat or
flames are present will not cause a
system to activate, only those ]�eads
directly exposed to sufficient heat or
flame will release water. Sprink]ers in
other areas of the dwelling will not
activate unless they, too, are exposed to
the fire. Water discharge from residential
sprinkler activation invariably is less
than that from a firel�ose, and provides
almost instantaneous response rather
than waiting for the fire department to
arrive while the fire progresses. An
external alarm, which rings when a
sprinkler activates, wil] alert occupants,
neighbors, or passersby to call the fire
department.
Another aspect of consumer aversion
to fire sprinkler installation in living
areas is the aesthetic appearance of
commercial and industrial installations.
Residential installations, with recent
introduction of new fittings, can be no
more obtrusive than an electrical outlet
plate or thermostat cover.
Residential fires cause more than 5,000
deaths and $3 billion in property damage
Meeting Dates
every year. Even though smoke detectors
have helped reduce the number of fire
deaths by 50 percent in the past decade,
detectors don't put out the flames, and
sometimes firefighters can't reach
burning liomes before major damage is
done. Homes constructed in the future in
Rancho Cucamonga will hopefully
provide that added measure of protection
that will preclude their occupants from
becoming a part of those statistics.
Questions regarding tl�e new
Residential Fire Sprinkler Ordinance can
be directed to the Rancho Cucamo�iga
Fire Protection District at 987-2535, or the
City Manager's Office at 989-1851.

PUBLIC SAFETY
Be Careful in Crosswalks
Paint of fers little protection from speeding cars
70,000 pounds of energy hitting you.
A grim and sobering thought. And yet,
this is the potential danger a 2,000 pound
car (in other words a small compact)
going 35 miles per hour represents to
pedestrians crossing the street.
To many, crosswalks may appear to
make things safer for pedestrians. But
consider the following:
• A three-year study by a southern
Californian city showed that there were
eight times as many pedestrian
accidents at intersections with painted
crosswalks as there were at
intersections without them.
• A five year study, also done in southern
California, of 400 intersections showed
six times as many accidents in marked
crosswalks as compared to unmarked
crosswalks.
California law states that a crosswalk
exists at all intersections, unless crossings
are prohibited by signs. Painted
Play It Safe!
The City of Rancho Cucamonga is
committed to providing a safe playground
environment for children. However, there
is much parents and other adults can do
to safeguard children while they are on the
playground. Please take a few minutes
and review these playground safety
suggestions.
Safe Usage of Playgrounds and Parks
It is important that all aduits take the
time to learn about playground safety for
the sake of our children and to be properly
motivated to protect youngsters from
unnecessary risk and injury in their play.
As Adults You Can:
• select the playground equipment
children use wisely;
• instruct children how to use equipment
safely to protect themselves and their
playmates; and
supervise children's play;
inappropriate behavior and
accidents before they occur.
Climbing Apparatus
Children should:
crosswalks primarily are designed to
show pedestrians the safest place to cross
a street. Unfortunately, painted
crosswalks give some pedestrians a false
sense of security. Quite simply, two
painted lines provide no protection
against an oncoming car, especially a
speeding car.
In marked or unmarked crosswalks, the
pedestrian has the right-of-way. Away
from intersections where there are no
crosswalks, the pedestrian must yield the
right-of-way.
In any situation, however, it is the
responsibility of the pedestrian to wait for
a break in traffic and recognize that
vehicles may have difficulty coming to a
stop when they are not expecting to see
a pedestrian. Even at 35 miles per hour,
it takes a car 100 feet to stop.
The City of Rancho Cucamonga has an
aggressive anri-speeding campaign. But
the threat of the speeding driver at
crosswalks will always be with us. Do
/ • \
�� � �
� �� /
your part regardless of crosswalks. Look
both ways when crossing the street and
don't insist on the right-of-way -- it could
be a costly mistake. ■
• avoid having too many people using the Swings
equipment at once. Children should:
Horizontal Ladders and Bars
Children should:
• start at the same end of the equipment
and, using the "lock grip", move in the
same direction;
• never use ladders and bars when they
are wet;
� avoid speed contests or trying to cover
too large a distance in one move; and
• drop from the bars with knees slightly
bent and land on both feet.
� sit in the center of the swing - never
stand or kneel;
• hold on with both hands;
• stop the swing before getting off;
• walk around a moving swing, not too
close to the front or back;
• never swing with more than one person
on the swing; and
• never swing empty swings or twist
chains.
Slides
C{rildren should:
• hold on with both hands as they go up
the steps of the slide, one step at a time;
never climb up the sliding surface of the
frame;
correct • slide down feet first, always sitting up,
prevent one child at a time;
• use conect grip (fingers and thumb in a
"lock grip") for climbing and holding -
use BOTH hands;
• watch carefully when climbing down
and avoid those climbing up; and
• be sure no one is in front of the slide
before sliding down;
• be patient, do not push or shove, and
remember to wait your turn;
• feel metal slides before using to make
sure they are not too hot; and
• leave the front of the slide after taking a
turn.
Tot Swings
Adults should nemember to:
• always fasten restraining strap;
• not attempt to put too large a child in
too small a swing;
• not push so hard as to see the child's
head snapping back and forth;
� never leave small children unattended
in a swing; and
• remove a child from swing if they start
to cry or appear afraid.
Adults can help make the playground a
safe place by helping children to play
happily and safely! ■

and expectations of quality of our
residents and animal lovers, Rancho
Cucamonga is in the process of building
an animal facility to be located near the
intersection of Arrow Route and
Rochester. T11is location is a one-acre
portion of the larger sports coinplex
being built on this site. The plans
estimate the facility to be operating in the
Spring of 1992. For the time being, the
facility is being called the "Rancho
Cucainonga Animal Care Facility."
Unlike sonze other cities, the
uniqueness of our cominunity requires
that our facility operate inore as a
luimane society would as it perfornls the
animal control ftulction in our
coinnlunity. It is being planned far the
inclusion of volunteers warking in the
shelter as well as out of their homes. Our
City is forttulate to have a base of
involved and concerned people. With this
type of resident, along with t11e
willingness and cooperation of the City,
Rancho Cucamonga is working to
accoillplish the hig11 goal of operating
ancl inaintaining 1 htunane shelter for its
animals.
Through the years, a nuinUer of
individuals in oLir conuntulity have
demonstrated their concern by working
with our Iost 1nd abandoned animlls,
and the City hopes to utilize this existing
coinmitnlent and talent for the benefit of
aiun111s in our conlmunity.
The animal care facility is being
designed and built with voltulteers in

mind. Remembering that millions of
aniinals are put to sleep annually in
shelters, it will take � lot of hard work
and effort on the part of the volunteers
and the new animal care staff to save and
adopt as inany aniinals as �ossible. These
high goals put Rand10 Cucanlonga in t11e
position of becoming a leader in t11e field
with the best animal facility in t11e nation.
These goals can only be met through
partnership with City animal staff and
volunteers working right in the shelter,
locating lost animals, adopting
abandoned aniinals, educlting people on
animal care and helping with the various
programs at the facility. As importlnt as
being right in the shelter, volunteers can
work out of their homes with telephone
and correspondence work. The amount
of time given to volunteering can be as
little as a half hour a week or as much as
a full day in the shelter. Dedicated
volLulteers warking with the City wi11
make Rancho Cucamonga's aniinal care
facility a successful reality.
Volunteer now. It may seem too early,
but this is a new approach, and a lot of
lead tiine is necessary in order to be
ready for the animals when the shelter
opens. A group of volunteers are already
forming. They are in the process of
organizing, incorporating and setting up
by-laws, rules and regulations. You
nlight like to volunteer to assist the
group in its start-up, even in the
suggestion of a name. To volunteer you
can c�ll Fontaine Sewell at 980-1335 or

CHILD SAFETY
I�andling Emergencies
What would your child do if...
Emergency situations, whether they
are caused from injury or through an act
of nature, e.g., fire, flood, earthquake,
occur suddenly and without warning.
Everyone, including children, feels a
degree of comfort knowing they would
know what to do if an emergency
situation were to occur.
Children can, with proper instruction,
learn initial steps to take in emergency
situations that can assist others and
perhaps even lessen the consequences of
an injury or event.
With this in mind, the City of Rancho
Cucamonga, in conjunction with the
Rancho Cucamonga Police Department
and the Rancho Cucamonga Fire
Protection District, have developed a
workshop for young children, ages 8
through 14, to learn through actual role
playing what they can do when faced
with various emergency situations.

Fire Safety Corner Added To Library
Special materials just for children
The Rancho Cucamonga Fire �
Department and the Rancho Cucamonga
Branch Library has established an
educational section of the library,
featuring fictional and non-fictional
books on fire safety and the fire service.
The section is called "Fire Safety Corner",
and features reading material for
children 2 to 10 years of age.
The 34 hardcopy books were
purchased and donated to the library by
the Rancho Cucamonga Professional
Firefighter's Association. The books are
currently available at the Rancho
Cucamonga Branch Library, located at
9191 Base Line Road. A sampling of the
titles of the books include:
• Big Book of Real Fire Trucks
• Fireman Critter
• Fire Engine Shapes
• Building A Fire Truck
• I Want To Be A Firefighter
s Fighting A Fire
• Fire! Fire!
• Firefighters A To Z
• Firemouse
• Little Red Engine
• Little Fire Engine Saved
• Whiskerville Firehouse
The "Fire Safety Corner" was added to
the Library collection last fall with a
special educational program held at the
library. The program featured a fire
engine, fire truck, Lil' Squirt the talking
fire engine, and a special story read by a
firefighter. The Fire Safety Corner will be
highlighted throughout the year with
special events and story times. Story
tiines have been scheduled with fire
department personnel, and selected
stories with be read to the children's
story group. A special fire safety puppet
show will also be scheduled for the
children at the library.
The program has been a great success,
and the books have been so popular that
the original donation of 17 books was
doubled by the Firefighter's Association
These are only some of the vital skills
that YOUR child will learn at this very
important program. Everyone, especially
children, needs to have the self-
confidence and skills to handle
emergencies. Please plan to attend and
bring your child(ren) with you. NOTE:
Participants will be awarded certificates
at the end of the workshop.
When: Thursday, Apri125,1991
7:00 p.m.
Where: Lions Park Community Center

Why: Everyone, ESPECIALLY
CHILDREN, needs to have the self-
confidence and skills to handle
emergencies. e
to keep up with the demand. This type of
community project is an excellent
example of what can be done for the
community when professional groups
work together. The original idea was to
find an additional way to educate
children on fire safety and the fire
service, and has grown into a wonderful
way for the fire department and the
library to reach the community.

CORNERSTONE
Thinking Historically
Cornerstone, a stone forming a part of a corner or angle in a wall; a basic element; a foundation
Reininders of Rancho Cucamonga's
diverse past surround us in the forms of
our built and cultivated environments.
At times highly noticeable and at others
barely perceptible, traces of the world
inade by men and women from many
classes and backgrounds form a
significant element of our city's richness
and feel. Developing knowledge of the
past and its physical reininders can aid in
our understanding of current problems
and issues. From pediatricians to
pedestrians, many are curious as to just
whlt makes a building or place
important in the context of our past.
Determining how and why wineries,
homes, packing houses, general stores,
dlurches, beer halls, cacti, or field stone
walls are significant is an exciting
challenge for all of us.
As with any new acquaintance, in
order to speak the language and to
understand the subtle nuances of historic
spaces, we all have to learn the right
alphabet. Below are a few tips to begin
this process. Let's use 7157 Amethyst
Street, the old Roth Store and Post Office
later known as Ernie's Place, as an
example. Take a good look at the modern
photograph of the old store, if you will,
keeping in mind the following points
about the building: shape, scale, building
materials, decoration, window patterns,
and doorways. Do the building parts
seem to work together as a whole--do
they balance? Do the wood siding and
miniature shingled band correlate to the
other building materials or to the
decorative front roof (known as a
parapet)? Does the asymmetrical
relationship of the windows and door
seem to make sense? If you answered
"no" to all of the above questions, you
have begun to comprehend the language
of historic building and how they are
altered over time. For a sense of the
building's original appearance, look at
the historic photograph. The facade was
once symmetrical and large windows
afforded onlookers a view of the store's
merchandise. Upon closer inspection, we
can tell that the building was constructed
of poured concrete, as traces of the
wooded forms are clearly visible.
Research on this building revealed
even more clues about its past. The
Franklin Roth family moved the
operation of his general store from the
corner of Hellman Avenue and 19th
Street to its present location following the
completion of the Pacific Electric
Railroad in 1913. The Roth's were the first
business owners to relocate above the
new tracks. For his new store, Mr. Roth
had a large, square concrete structure
with large street-facing windows and a
Mission Revival-styled parapet built. In
the rear, corrugated tin was wrapped
around a wooden frame to form a shed
which served as storage space for the
store and also as Alta Loina's post office.
Not surprisingly, Mr. Roth served as the
town's postmaster from 1909-1918.
Knowledge of the history shape of this
structure serves to deepen our
understanding of the nature of life in
early Alta Loina. The modest
interpretation of the then trendy Mission
Revival Style when coupled with the
expansive storefront windows and
concrete construction revival the time,
dedication, and money the Roth fainily
and other like them invested in keeping
the newly-named town up-to-date and
well-supplied.
After Prohibition ended, the Ernie Hall
family began a restaurant and beer hall
business in the old store. Sometime in the
1950's or 1960's, vertical wood siding was
placed over the storefront windows: the
present owner, Mr. Capparelli, however
re-discovered these windows after
removing the drywall from the interior.
Whetller as a store and post office or
restaurant and beer hall, the structure
located at 7157 Amethyst Avenue served
as a nexus of community activity for the
young citrus-growing area. Although
modest by todav's standards, the

Below is n description of fhe yrogrnms used througl�ouf the City to nddress these importnnf
com�rtunrty co�accrns.
DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) is a substance abuse education program
designed to eGuip children with skills to resist peer pressure to experiment with alcohol
and drugs. The program is a 17 week formal curriculum taught by a uniformed officer
in the classroom. This program is being taught in targeted schools throughout the City
tltrougll a cooperative effort of the City, the Police Department and Alta Loma, Central
and Etiwanda Scl�ool Districts. For additional information call the Rancho Cucamonga
Police Department at, 989-66]].
CHOICES is a gang diversion progra�n which focuses on youngsters developing the
right choices. It also addresses the growing concern of school personnel regarding gang
violence and substance abuse on school campuses. The program is taught by a
uniformed officer in the classroom and is 13 weeks in duration. It is aimed at preventing
experimentation with gang involvement. The CHO[CES officer can be contacted by
calling the Rancho Cucamonga Police Department at, 989-6611. •
STAR (Survive Through Abuse Recognition) is designed to assist concerned parents
and tlie general public in recognizing behavioral and clinical symptoms of alcohol and
drug usage. T}iis 2 hour drug recognition program is specifically designed to train the
public to administer a 7 step preliminary exam wllich, when coupled with simple
behavioral symptoms, can be an effective tool in recognizing substance abuse. For more
information on the STAR program, residents are encouraged to call the Rancho
Cucamonga Police Department at, 989-6611.
WETIP is a national toll-free tip-line that provides citizens with a way to give

When the Temperature Drops
Managing the home yard
November through February typically
marks the season for cold temperatures
and freezes which can create difficult
challenges for managing the home yard.
T11e following is designed to provide you
with information on how to deal with
these unusual temperature fluctuations.
• Do not panic. An announcement of a
pending freeze can easily create panic
and frustration. Often, this is com-
pounded by television, radio and
newspaper reports that play up or
overstate the extent of damage caused
by a freeze.
• As a general rule, maintain soil
moisture throughout the winter
months with regular waterings. This
will help to ensure that there is
adequate water available for the plant,
as well as provide an 'insulation'
against the freezing cold.
• Potted plants should be moved close to
the house, under a patio cover or even
under the eaves of the house. 7'his will
provide protection from the freezing
cold.
• Prior to a freeze, for larger plant
material that cannot be moved or is
planted in the ground, you may wish
to cover plants with newspapers or
tarps making sure that the cover does
not come into contact with the plant
material. If the cover comes into
contact with the plant it will serve as a
conductor of the free•r.ing cold air to the
plant.
• For expensive plant material or 'prize'
possessions, you may wish to use
another method of protecting plant
material -- that is to place a 50-]00 watt
light bulb within the plant which will
then radiate heat to help offset the frost
condition.
• Certainly if you know thc frost scason
is coming and you wish to protect your
plants, frost protective agents can be
purchased from speciality nurseries
that can be sprayed on the plant prior
to frost conditions.
• If frost damage has occurred, refrain
from pruning damaged portions of the
plant. Even though unsightly, this
damaged plant material will serve as
protection against another freeze. Once
the frost season has passed you can
ABOUT YOUR CITY
Innovative City of the Year Award
A'win-win' for city and schools
The Inland Empire Division of the
League of California Cities recently
presented the City of Rancho Cucamonga
with its Innovative City of the Year
award for its City/Schools Joint Use and
Development Agreement. The program
was initiated to make the best possible
use of school and City facilities.
With our City growing so rapidly and
the increasing pressure to provide
facilities for youth sports continuing to
escalate, the City has turned to existing
sites already owned by the schools.
Through a series of cooperative
agreements, the City and the school
districts are able to increase the quantity
of public facilities available for use at a
fraction of tl�e cost required if each
agency were acting alone. In an exchange
for use of the schools' playfields after
school hours, the City offered to design
and construct improvements such as field
lighting, field rehabilitation and restroom
facilities.
The result of these agreements has
provided eigllt new baseball fields wit11
two fields being ligl�ted; two softball
fields; four soccer fields; four basketball
courts; one lighted football/soccer field;
new landscaping; drinking fountains and
restrooms. These new facilities are a
much welcomed addition to available
community resources and will help
relieve the pressure on existing City
parks by addin� 17.5 acres of playfields
and by providing another outlet for the
growing number of sports programs in
the City.
In addition to the benefits in facilities,
these agreements have saved the City
and the school districts money. This
saving can now be used for developing
even more parkland.
Another type of agreement between
the City and the school districts has
helped provide classroom space for City
use and maintenance free playground
and playfield areas for school use.
Throughout the City, several schools
and City parks have been built next to
each other. Taking advantage of this
situation, the schools and the City have
,� ��
`� �
assess the amount of damage and
prune off only the dead material.
• Generally plant material should not be
fertili�ed until the spring (March-
April). Fertilizer applications during
the winter months could induce new
succulent growth which would again
be damaged by another freeze.
• If you need to replace plants killed by
the freeze, residents are urged to check
with a local nursery or with the Sunset
Western Garden publication to
determine the cold hardiness of the
plant material they wish to purchase.
I�opefully these suggestions will assist
you in managing your home yard when
the temperature drops. Additional
information and advise can be obtained
form the University of California
Cooperative Extension Office at (7l4)
387-2171, the City's Public Works
Division at, 989-2873, extension 4222, or
through your local nursery. a
entered into an agreement whereby park
space is reserved during school hours for
school use and classroom space is made
available to the City after school and on
weekends. The City uses this space to
provide recreation classes to the
community closer to residents' homes
rather than at one of the centralized
community centers. Anotller advantage
is that more of the public can be served
and can take advantage of these
opportunities because the City can offer
more classes and class time.
The schools receive benefits from this
agreement because they can offer quality
play areas to their schools at no cost to
the school. This allows financially-
strained schools to spend its resources on
the education of our children.
These two types of agreements have
created a'win-win' situation for the City
and for the school districts. As a result of
these agreements both agencies can offer
more services to the public while stretching
limited resources to provide for the needs
of our growing community. ■

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS
April - Earthquake Preparedness Month
Get it done in '91
The City of Rancho Cucamonga is
encouraging everyone to "Get It Done In
'91." We all know the importance of
preparing in advance for the effects of an
earthquake. The Upland Quake of
February, ]990, was traumatic for many
of our citizens. The City's Disaster
I'reparedness Office was deluged with
calls from citizens whose families were
experiencing a lot of anxiety. That's
because, as everyone knows, earthquakes
are scary. What we have learned is, "The
Best Way To Handle Scared Is To Be
Prepared."
We need to realize that we are not at
the mercy of earthquakes. There is a lot
that we can do now to increase the odds
of survival and minimize the chance of
structure damage. But each of us must
take the steps necessary.
April is Earthquake Preparedness
month in the state of California. The
focus of this years campaign is
Eliminating Non-Structural Hazards.
"Bolt It, Brace It, Fasten It Down!„
For example, residents are encouraged
to:
• Secure equipment and large pieces of
furniture.
• Install latches on cabinet doors.
• Strap water heaters.
• Restrain items that can break, cause
damage, or inflict injury.
By securing items now that can injure
people during an earthquake, you are
making your environment safer; thereby,
reducing the risk of injury to you and
those around you.
In Ari atfempt to assist you in �our
earthquake preparedness efforts, the City's
Disaster Preparedness Office has placed
literature stAnds throughout fhe city.
Participating stores will display posters
illustrating emergency preparedness
suggestiorrs. Display rAcks Are located in the
City's community centers, the Rancho
Cucamonga BranclT Libran� and local grocery
stores. Call 989-1851, extension 2603 for the

Community emergency response training
An earthquake can cause utility
failures, fires, chemical spills, damaged
buildings and serious injuries. The
demand for assistance can totally
overwhelm a city's resources. With each
disaster, we see more and more that,
initially, much of the assistance is
provided by "uninjured bystanders."
Those people who are there at the time,
see someone in need, a family member, a
neighbor or co-worker and attempt to
help. Often these people are not
equipped with the knowledge they need
to offer adequate assistance and at the
same time protect themselves.
Seeing the need for education in this
area, the City's Disaster Preparedness
Office, in conjunction with the Rancho
Cucamonga Fire Department, is proud to
offer a new 7-week long training program
that covers the following areas:
