Mayor, City Council members and City Manager
William J. O'Neil, City Engineer
Bob Zetterberg, Integrated Waste Coordinator
WASTE OIL BLOCK GRANT
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council of Rancho Cucamonga approve a resolution for a
Waste Oil Block Grant application.
BACKGROUND
In 1991, the Legislature passed AB 2076(Sher), the California Oil Recovery
Enhancement Act(Act). The Act requires oil manufactures to pay $0.04 to the Califomia
Integrated Waste Management Board for each quart of lubricating oil sold, beginning
October 1, 1992. This Act includes a ten million dollar government "block grant"
program. Block grant funds are available to governmental agencies to establish and
administer used oil collection programs.
The Block Grant funds are a non-competitive fund and have very few requirements. The
requirements are; the funds must be used for Oil Recycling related programs, the City
pass a resolution, and there be a certified center within the City limits. Block Grant funds
are based on per capita of the City, at rate $.3169 per resident, equating to $36,110.00 for
the City of Rancho Cucamonga.
This is the fourth Used Oil Block Grant made available to local jurisdictions. The City of
Rancho Cucamonga has applied and received three previous grant funds. Through these
grant funds we have distributed over two thousand used oil containers and recycled over
20,000 gallons of used oil in the past two years. In addition these funds have helped to
improve the Household Hazardous Waste Facility with new storage facility and other site
improvements and informed the community through cable public service announcements.
A certified drop off site or a curbside used oil collection program is a mandatory part of
the Waste Oil Block Grant Program. Without at least one of the preceding items the City
is not eligible for grant funds.
Bernell Hydraulics at 8810 Etiwanda Avenue was the first used oil drop-off business to
become certified in Rancho Cucamonga. In June of 1995 two other businesses became
certified. They are Pep Boys at 9292 Foothill Boulevard and Reliable Smog & Tune at
9888 Foothill Boulevard in Rancho Cucamonga. Three certified centers in Rancho
Cucamonga insures our qualifications to receive full Block Grant Funds.
An adopted Resolution is to be submitted with the application which is due November
30, 1995.
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO
CUCAMONGA APPROVING THE APPLICATION FOR GRANT
FUNDS FROM THE USED OIL RECYCLING FUND UNDER THE
USED OIL RECYCLING ENHANCEMENT ACT
Whereas, the people of the State of California have enacted the California Oil Recycling
Enhancement Act that provides funds to cities and counties for establishing and
maintaining local used oil collection programs that encourage recycling or appropriate
disposal of used oil; and
Whereas, the California Integrated Waste Management Board (Board) has been delegated
the responsibility for the administration of the program within the state, setting up
necessary procedures governing application by cities and counties under the program;
and
Whereas, said procedures established by the California Integrated Waste Management
Board require the applicant to certify by resolution the approval of application before
submission of said application to the state; and
Whereas, the applicant will enter into an agreement with the State of California for the
development of the project;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the CITY COUNCIL HEREBY:
1. Approves the filing of an application for the California Used Oil Recycling Block
Grant Program under the California Oil Recycling Enhancement Act for state assistance
for the project specified above; and
2. Certifies that said applicant has or will have sufficient funds to operate and maintain
the project; and
3. Appoints the City Engineer as agent of the City Council to conduct all negotiations,
execute and submit all documents including, but not limited to applications, agreements,
amendments, payment requests and so on, which may be necessary for the completion of
the aforementioned project.

Designation 95-02.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the requests by resolution and minute order, respectively.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
On September 13, 1995, the Historic Preservation Commission unanimously recommended
approval of both the Historic Landmark Designation and Mills Act Agreement. The Historic
Preservation Commission Minutes and Staff Report are attached for reference.
Landmark Designation: The subject site and structures qualify for landmark designation based
upon many of the criteria from the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance including such significant
areas as; historical, cultural, architectural, and neighborhood and geographic setting. Details
concerning these areas of significance are contained in the Facts for Findings section. The
requested designation area includes the subject lot, residence, and garage.
Mills Act Agreement: In accordance with City policy, the owner has requested a Mills Act
Agreement. The Agreement has been drafted and reviewed and is attached for reference. (See
Exhibit "A" of the Agreement for the scheduled list of improvements).
Staff estimates the annual property tax savings to the owner could be as much as $977.00 and the
reduction in tax proceeds to the City would be $38.05. The exact amounts are dependent upon
the County Assessor's property valuation based on income potential and the capitalization rate at
the time of assessment.

and Emma S. Hickcox Residence and Garage, an historic landmark located at 6878
Etiwanda Avenue - APN: 227-041-09. Related file: Landmark Designation 95-02.
BACKGROUND
Historical Significance: Built in 1931, this residence and detached garage were constructed
for Nell and Emma Hickcox. Both Nell and Emma are the children of two families of settlers
from the Etiwanda Colony. Emma's father was Dr. A. L. Shepard, who came to Etiwanda in
1882. Both of them attended the original wooden school house in Etiwanda. The residence
and garage were designed by Los Angeles Architect Elwood Smith and provide an
outstanding example of Spanish Revival Architecture. The structures retain almost all the
original significant architectural details and features. It is the desire of the present
owners/applicants to retain and restore the structures to the original architectural character.

North Low Density (2-4 dwelling units per acre); Etiwanda Specific Plan
South Low Density (2-4 dwelling units per acre); Etiwanda Specific Plan

Site Characteristics: The site is relatively flat while drainage runs gently to the south. The
site is currently landscaped with a veritable plethora of mature trees, shrubs, and ground
cover. A single large deodar tree currently hides the front of the house from the street. The
house has a large setback from Etiwanda Avenue and the garage is located behind the
house.

ANALYSIS:
General: The residence is in 'very good condition with almost all significant exterior and
interior features having been retained. The house is a two story design with both front and
rear balconies and integrated covered patio and porch features. The roof is Spanish tile and
the walls are stucco. Windows are of a casement design with unique roll up interior screens.
All windows and doors appear to be the originals.
Landmark Designation: The subject site and structures certainly qualify for landmark
designation based upon many of the criteria from the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance
including such significant areas as; historical, cultural, architectural, and neighborhood and
geographic setting. Details concerning these areas of significance are contained in the Facts
for Findings section. The requested designation area includes the subject lot, residence, and
garage.
Mills Act Agreement: In accordance with City policy, the owner has requested a Mills Act
Agreement. The Agreement has been drafted and reviewed and is attached for reference.
(See Exhibit C of the Agreement for the scheduled list of improvements.)
The concept of the Mills Act program is to provide an incentive for the property owner-to
protect and preserve the property in order to retain its characteristics of historical significance.
This intention is encouraged through the reduction of property taxes, thus enabling the
property owner to reinvest the money saved from the reduced property tax for improvements.
The properties that enter into the agreement are to be inspected by City staff on an annual
basis to determine whether notable progress has been made in rehabilitating the property.
Staff estimates the property tax savings to the owner could be as much as $977.00 and the
reduction in tax proceeds to the City would be $38.05. The exact amounts are dependent
upon the County Assessor's property valuation based on income potential and the
capitalization rate at the time of assessment.
Environmental Assessment: The project is Categorically Exempt under Class 3.e of the
Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act.

APPROVAL TO OPEN ESCROW WITH ANGELO AND FRANCES BONANNO
FOR PURCHASE OF REAL PROPERTY FOR STREET PURPOSES IN
CONJUNCTION WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NORTHEAST PARK
APN 225-131-19 FOR $5,000 PLUS ESCROW COSTS; FUND ACCOUNT
NUMBER 10-4637-7042
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that City Council approve the opening of escrow with Angelo and Frances
Bonanno for purchasing real property for Street Purposes, known as APN 225-13 1-19 for $5,000
plus $3,000 escrow costs, funded from Account Number 10-4637-7042.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The engineering staff has been negotiating with Mrs. Bonanno for about 6 months for the purchase
of 1,800 square feet of land in the Etiwanda area. The parcel of land is directly in line with the
extension of East Avenue north of Summit Avenue. The parcel was a remainder portion from the
school acquisition of Mrs Bonanno's property in 1972. The cumulative cost to acquire the property
trough eminent domain actions would far exceed the nominal appraised value and would cause a
delay in the construction of the public park. Therefore a mutually acceptable price of $5,000 was
reached through negotiations. The escrow costs of approximately $3,000 will be covered by the City
and any residual liens or taxes would come from the purchase price. The total of $8,000 for this
purchase is funded by Account Number 10-4637-7042. The company chosen to cover the escrow
transactions is Chicago Title Company, who will also provide Title Insurance after the transfer of
title.

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Stormwater
Permit Implementation Agreement Amendment.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council of Rancho Cucamonga approve Amendment No.
1 to the Implementation Agreement No. 92-315 between the San Bernardino County
Flood Control District and Co-Permittees listed in the Agreement.
BACKGROUND
On October 19, 1990 the Flood Control District, the County of San Bemardino, the City
of Rancho Cucamonga and the incorporated Cities in the Santa Ana River watershed, as
Co-permittees, obtained an area-wide National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) Permit, order No.90-136, NPDES No. CA8000200, as required by the Clean
Water Act, Amended in 1987.
Under the requirement of the permit, the Co-permittees entered into an Implementation
Agreement for the delegation of responsibilities and funding of program costs on shared
cost basis. Agreement No. 1 to the Permit Agreement revises the mechanism of funding
the program costs by the Co-permittees.
ANALYSIS
The County of San Bernardino Flood Control District has not revised the Implementation
Agreement since adoption in October of 1990. The intent of Amendment No.1 is to
more accurately distribute the area-wide program costs based on adjusted run-off
coefficients and corresponding land uses.
The County of San Bernardino Flood Control District uses the County Assessor's land
use parcel data to determine the total number of assessable land use units related to each
of the Co-permittees. This method takes into consideration the growth and development
that has been experienced by the Co-permittees.
With Amendment No. 1 the City of Rancho Cucamonga share of the NPDES permit fee
for Fiscal Year 1995\96 is $ 42,600. This is a $12,700 or 1.67% increase over previous
years. Other Co-permittees are also experiencing increases based on their unique land
uses.
The permit fee cost share increase along with an increase of the permit fee was
anticipated and budgeted in the current NPDES Program Budget.

MEETING OF THE ROUTE 30 TASK FORCE
The November meeting of the Task Force was held on Tuesday, November 14, and was again
devoted to a discussion of whether all planned interchanges along Route 30 through the City should
be retained. There was specifically continuing interest in the Milliken Avenue interchange and
further information was presented to the Task Force concerning that particular interchange. In
attendance was an audience of about 30 people, several of whom had questions or statements which
were received by the Task Force. The audience members attended the meeting in response to flyers
which had been distributed to homes in proposed interchange areas.
.,
Information was reviewed with both the Task Force and the audience concerning the process by
which the General Plan and its circulation element was approved. There was also a brief discussion
of the feasibility of major changes to the General Plan.
For the benefit of the audience, the City Engineer gave a brief overview of the freeway and the
history and mission of the Task Force. The City Engineer then gave a recap of the last meeting and
provided answers to questions raised previously. The Police Chiefs report indicating no
documented connection between crime and freeway offi:amps was presented. The Task Force agreed
that interchanges at Haven Avenue and Day Creek Boulevard were acceptable and, no further
information would be provided relative to those areas.
City and Caltrans staff then presented information on the effect of eliminating the Milliken Avenue
interchange on traffic conditions on City streets and the freeway. It was pointed out that traffic
eliminated from any interchange location would be added to traffic at adjacent interchanges and
impact the streets in between. In some cases local streets may be affected, but the main effect would
be to Highland Avenue/19th Street, Banyan Street, and the Fairmont Way/Kenyon Way/Woodruff
Place system in the Milliken/Highland Avenue area.
Caltrans reported an increase in cost for elimination of the Milliken interchange because extra lanes
would be needed on the freeway at the Haven Avenue interchange and on the Haven Avenue bridge
to handle the added on/off ramp traffic. A rough estimate of the extra cost, considering savings of
eliminating an interchange but not including right-of-way, is 1.3 million dollars.
ROUTE 30 TASK FORCE MEETING
November 15, 1995
Page 2
The Task Force was mainly concemed with traffic pattems around the Milliken Interchange area.
Traffic circulator and pedestrian safety are main issues as well as density issues for future
development.
It was necessary to continue the interchange discussion to December when all five interchanges will
be assessed as to need and/or desirability. The next Task Force meeting will be on Tuesday,
December 12, at 6:00 PM. The Task Force was asked for additional information regarding traffic
counts and geometries for the next meeting.
