TO Chairman and Members of the Historic Preservation Commission
FROM James R Troyer, AICP, Planning Director
BY Rozalynne Thompson, Contract Planner
SUBJECT CONSIDERATION OF DEMOLITION PERMIT DRC2006-00714 -HANK JONG - A
review of historic and cultural sigmficance in response to proposed demolition of the
structure in the Low Density Residential district (2-4 dwelling units per acre), located
at 6928 Hellman Avenue - APN 0202-041-62
BACKGROUND
• A Abstract The applicant filed a Bwiding Permit application to demolish an existing, unoccupied
residence and garage located at 6928 Hellman Avenue in March 2006 The applicant had
filed Subdivision and Development Review applications (SUBTT16752 and DRC2005-00647)
with the Planning Department for the construction of nine homes at the protect site several
months prior to applicant's submittal of the Demolition Permit application Staff deferred
review of the Demolition Permit unttl the Historic Preservation Commission determined the
cultural and historic significance of the structures based upon a cultural resource study (as
provided by the applicant, prepared by SWCA Consultants in June 2006) as reference
B Site Characteristics The site is atriangular-shaped parcel located west of the "T" intersection
of Monte Vista Street and Hellman Avenue it is approximately 3 24 acres with a drainage
easement along the southwest property line The site slopes to the southwest into the
drainage easement The land use zoning of the site and the surrounding area is designated
Low Residential (2-4 dwellings per acre) The site is surrounded by existing single-family
development to the east, west, and north, which are zoned Low Residential (2-4 dwelling units
per acre) The subfect structures are located near the northeast corner of the protect site
Mature trees flank the residence and garage to the north and south.
ANALYSIS
A General , The subject structures are asingle-family dwelling and a detached garage The
dwelling appears to have been constructed around 1942, based upon a tax assessment
property profile The house appears to be designed in the Shotgun vernacular with Craftsman
elements It has a gabled roof and appears to be a single-story structure from the front
• elevation From the rear elevation, however, the dwelling appears to be a two-story structure
because the main level is above the finished basement area The deep overhang of the
gabled roof in the front elevation forms the entry porch The entrance porch has two,
ITEM A
HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION STAFF REPORT
DRC2006-00714
September 27, 2006
Page 2
single-post supports with braces The porch almost extends the full width of the front
elevation of the structure, with decorative brackets under the roof eave The roof consists of
composite shingle with a low to moderate pitch, with an extended overhang on the front
elevation to accommodate the front porch The exterior wall surfaces include a mix of stucco,
clapboard siding, brick and wood sheeting, while the windows on the structure include wood,
aluminum, and vinyl frames A hot tub and rear deck are to the rear of the structure, with an
equipment room immediately adfacent According to tax records, the house is approximately
984 square feet, exclusive of the basement area
Although the date of construction of the garage is unknown, it appears to have been
constructed around the same time as the house The square footage of the garage is also
unknown The garage is detached from the house, but a red brick path connects the south
side of the house to the entry door of the garage, which is located at the northeast corner of
the garage Like the dwelling, the garage is gable-roofed with composite shingle roofing
Exterior materials of the garage include uncoursed rubble walls of undressed stone and
mortared red brick It appears that the garage door was once functional since the garage and
adfoining driveway are oriented toward Hellman Avenue The garage door has been removed
and finished with clapboard siding to form a fully enclosed bwlding Also, the interior of the
garage has been finished with sheetrock and a false ceiling composed of acoustic panels
•
Staff concurs with the conclusion of the Cultural Resource Study prepared by SWCA
Environmental Consultants in June 2006, that the house and garage should not be deemed a
historic resource for the following reasons first, the vernacular bwldings and structures on the •
property do not embody distinctive characteristics or represent the works of a master, second,
are not associated with significant events m local, state, regional, or national history, third, are
not associated with persons significant m local, state, regional, or national history, and, fourth,
have no unique information to yield in local, state, regional, or national history
If the Commission allows the demolition and new development occurs, the new development
will have to comply with all current Development Code standards, including setback and
parking requirements
LANDMARK DESIGNATION REVIEW CRITERIA "When designating a landmark, the Histonc
Preservation Commission and the City Council shall consider the following criteria as a guide in
making rts determination" [RCMC Section 2 24 090]
A. Historical and Cultural Sionificance
Finding The proposed landmark is particularly representative of a historic period,
type, style, region, or way of life
Facts Although the structures have several features of the Craftsmen Bungalow
and Colonial Revival architectural styles, none of those characteristics are
notable
Finding The proposed landmark is a greater age than most of its kind
FacUs Assuming that the garage was bwlt at the same time as the dwelling, the
approximate age of both structures is 64 years Designated Local Landmarks
A- 2
HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION STAFF REPORT
DRC2006-00714
• September 27, 2006
Page 3
within a mile of the house and garage range in age from 85 years to 121
years
2 Finding The proposed landmark was connected with someone renowned or important
or a local personality
FacUs There is no record that the bwlding was connected with anyone renowned or
important or a local personality
3 Finding The proposed landmark is connected with a business or use that was once
common but is now rare
Facts Given that the structures are asingle-family dwelling and garage, it is not
connected to a rare use
B Historic Architectural and Engineering Significance
1 Finding The overall effect of the design of the proposed landmark is beautiful or its
details and materials are beautiful or unusual
FacUs The structures are designed in the Shotgun vernacular with some Craftsmen
Bungalow features The architectural features of the house and garage
• include a low to moderate roof pitch, composite shingle roofs, deeply
overhanging eaves, entry doors at the front and rear elevations, and a mix of
exterior materials (brick, stone, wood siding) However, numerous exterior
and interior modifications, by owner/tenant and trespassers, have significantly
diminished its original architectural character and significance These
modifications include the garage enclosure, completion of the basement, and
the boarded windows of the dwelling and garage
C Neighborhood and Geographic Setting
1 Finding The proposed landmark materially benefits the historic character of the
neighborhood
Facts The structures are located within a mile of seven Designated Local
Landmarks, the Palmer Ranch House (5708 Hellman Avenue), the G P
Ledig House (5759 Hellman Avenue), the Huber Ranch/Kalbach House
(5991 Hellman Avenue), the Warren/Thorpe House (6112 Hellman Avenue),
Goerlitz House (6156 Hellman Avenue), the Lord House (6797 Hellman
Avenue) and the McCorkle-Nesbit House (7608 Hellman Avenue) The
house and garage at 6928 Hellman Avenue do not materially benefit the
historic character of the neighborhood because the various exterior
modifications have significantly diminished the architectural character of the
house and garage Furthermore, the age of the house and garage
(approximately 64 years) is not comparable to that of the surrounding
Designated Local Landmarks (the structures range in age from
• 85-121 years)
A- 3
HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION STAFF REPORT
DRC2006-00714
September 27, 2006
Page 4
Finding The proposed landmark, in its location, represents an established and familiar
visual feature of the neighborhood, community, or city
FacUs Although the house and garage have been m the neighborhood for 64 years,
it has been unoccupied for several years, has attracted vandals and
trespassers, and has not been mamtamed Staff concludes that demolition of
the structures will remove a familiar, but unsightly, visual feature within the
neighborhood
D Environmental Assessment:
The Planning Department Staff has determined that the protect is categorically exempt from
the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA
Gudelines The protect qualifies under as a Class 1 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines
Section 15301(1)(1) (Demolition and removal of individual small structures) because the house
and garage are defined as small structures and there is no substantial evidence that the
protect may have a significant effect on the environment
PROPOSED DEMOLITION If deemed to be a Historic Landmark, demolition would require that a
Landmark Alteration Permit be granted by the Historic Preservation Committee if one of the
following conditions is met, in accordance with Title 2 24 120 of Ordinance 70
•
The alteration will not be detrimental to a structure or feature of significant aesthetic, cultural, •
architectural, or engineering interest or value of a historic nature
The alteration is necessary to correct an unsafe or dangerous condition on the property
The applicant has demonstrated denial of the application that will result in immediate or
substantial hardship
RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Historic Preservation Commission determine
that the structure does not meet the City's criteria for a local Landmark Designation and approve the
demolition of the structure located at 6928 Hellman Avenue

'P3a. Description: The house located at 6928 Heilman Avenue was identified as constructed in 1942 in a tax
assessment property profile. No information regarding the construction date of the ad)acent garage was
provided, however, it appears to be cpntemporaneous with the house The cold-jointed concrete foundation of
the house and presence of at least one double sash wood frame window support this construction date The
two-story house ~s gable-roofed with a single bay entrance porch on a gable end and appears single-story
from the front It has undergone numerous modifications since its original construction and has a composite
shingle roof Various exterior wall surfaces include stucco, clapboard siding, brick and wood sheeting, while
windows on the structure include wood, aluminum, and vinyl frames as well as one aluminum-framed bay
window The house has a rear deck with a hot tub constructed over a patio and room housing hot tub
egwpment and a water heater The house is recorded as occupying 984 square feet, however, this appears to
exclude the lower level, which may be a finished basement The garage is gable-roofed and finished with
uncoursed rubble walls of undressed stone The corners of garage as well as the edge of the side doorway
are mortared red brick and the assumed former location of the garage door (facing the driveway and street)
has been finished with clapboard siding and a window, which was boarded up at the time of the survey The
entry to the back door is constructed of coldyointed concrete The interior of the garage was finished with
sheetrock and a false ceiling composed of acoustic panels Despite the windows and doors of the house and
garage being boarded up, it appeared that squatters and various and competing gang members hav~
occupied or used the house and garage numerous times since their vacancy by lawful residents Thi
occupation was indicated by broken windows and broken door locks, graffiti on most of the interior walls, and
occupational debris within both structures

•BS. Construction History The house located at 6928 Hellman Avenue was identified as constructed in 1942 in a
tax assessment property profile No information regarding the construction date of the adjacent garage was provided,
however, it appears to be contemporaneous with the house The coldyointed concrete foundation of the house and
presence of at least one double sash wood frame window support this construction date The single-story house is
gable-roofed with a single bay entrance porch on a gable end and appears single-story from the front (see continuation
sheets) It has undergone numerous modifications since its original construction and has a composite shingle roof
Various exterior wall surfaces include stucco, clapboard siding, brick and wood sheeting, while windows on the
structure include wood, aluminum, and vinyl frames as well as one aluminum-framed bay window The house has a
rear deck with a hot tub constructed over a patio and a room housing the hot tub equipment and a water heater The
house is recorded as occupying 984 square feet, however, this appears to exclude the lower level, which appears to
be a finished basement
The garage is gable-roofed and finished with corners and doorframe of red brick, alternating with uncoursed rubble
walls of undressed stone (see Plates 6 and 7) The assumed former location of the garage door (facing the driveway
and street) has been finished with clapboard siding and a window, which was boarded up at the time of the survey
The entry to the back door is constructed of coldyointed concrete The interior of the garage was finished with
sheetrock and a dropped ceiling composed of acoustic panels.
Despite the windows and doors of the house and garage being boarded up, it appeared that squatters and various and
suspected gang members have occupied or used the house and garage numerous times since their vacancy by lawful
residents This occupation was indicated by broken windows and broken door locks, graffiti on most of the interior
walls, and occupational debris within both structures

SUBJECT. MODIFICATION OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT DRC2004-01126 - FRANK AN
- A request to develop a commercial center on 7 74 gross acres of land consisting
of ten freestanding restaurant buildings and one retail building totaling 51,200
square feet within the Community Commercial Distnct (Subarea 4), located on the
north side of Foothill Boulevard, approximately 600 feet west of Etiwanda Avenue
- APN 0227-221-03, 07, 22, 23, and 24 Related File Tentative Parcel Map
• SUBTPM16767
BACKGROUND On November 9, 2005, "International Restaurant ~Ilage" was approved by the
Plannmg Commission with a total of 10 freestanding restaurant buildings and 2 retail buildings
totaling 51,200 square feet. The buildings were approved Hnth a unrfortn design, and overall
international theme which included a large color palette and a main entry Hnth a Route 66 theme
faGng Foothill Boulevard The approved master plan did not inGude any use of fast food/take
out restaurants because of the lack of sufficient parking for those more intensive uses as stated
in the ongmal staff report (Exhibit C)
ANALYSIS
A. General Since the ongmal approval, the applicant has met Hnth several tenants who are
interested in a coffee shop and ice cream parlor specifically to locate in Building "C " This
would allow 1,100 square feet for each tenant, totaling 2,200 square feet for the entire
budding The applicant is also requesting a shrft in the bwlding floor plan of Buildings "K"
and "L " Originally, both buildings were approved as sit-down restaurants, but the
applicant has deeded that a retail shop would work better for Budding "L " The buildings
have been shifted and now share an intenor wall and are structurally connected The
parking has been modrfied to provide the additional three parking spaces required
Because of the change rn use to retail rn Budding "L" (a less intense use than a
restaurant), the entire site will only need three additional parking spaces
B Desron Review Committee The Committee (McPhail, Stewart, Coleman) reviewed the
project on August 15, 2006 The protect was approved as presented

C Environmental Assessment• Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Ad (CEQA)
and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City adopted a Mitigated Negative Decaration
on November 9, 2005, in connection with the Cty's approval of Conditional Use Permit
DRC200401128 and Tentative Parcel Map SUBTPM16767 Pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Decaration is
required in connection with subsequent discretionary approvals of the same protect
unless. (i) substantial changes are proposed to the protect that indicate new or more
severe impacts on the environment, (ii) substantial changes have occurred in the
ciroumstances under which the prated was previously reviewed that indicates new or
more severe environmental rmpads, or (iii) new important information shows the protect
will have new or mare severe rmpads than previously considered, or (iv) additional
mitigation measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures
can be imposed to substantially reduce impacts Staff has evaluated the Conditional Use
Permit Modification DRC2004-01128 and conGudes that substantial changes to the
project or the circumstances surrounding the prated have not occurred which would
create new or more severe rmpads than those evaluated in the previous Mitigated
Negative Declaration The protect mod cation includes a minor change of use, from asit-
down restaurant use to a take-out restaurant use, and a building footpnnt modfcation
which will not adversely impact the site Staff further finds that the protect will not have
one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Mitigated Negative
Declaration, not have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or
different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the project to a
level of less-than-significant The revisions to the sde plan are very minor and do not
effect the prated as a whole Therefore, pursuant to CEQA, staff recommends that the •
Planning Commission concur with the staff determination that no additional environmental
review is required in connection with the City's consideration of the Modification of
Conditional Use Permit DRC200401128.
cVRRESPONDENCE This item was advertised as a public heanng in the Inland Valley Dady
Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners
within a 300-foot radius of the prated site
RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve modification
to Conditional Use Permit DRC2004-01128 through the adoption of the attached Resolution of
Approval Huth conditions

develop a commercial center on 7 74 gross acres of land, consisting of ten freestanding
restaurant buildings and one retail budding totaling 51,200 square feet within the Community

600 feet west of Etiwanda Avenue - APN 0227-221-03, 07,22,23,24 Related files
Tentative Parcel Map SUBTPM16767
Design Parameters The project was originally approved by the Planning Commission on
September 14, 2005, for all ten freestanding restaurant buildings and one retail bwlding, totaling
51,200 square feet Originally, the Conditional Use Permit allowed only sit-down restaurants
and met the minimum regwrements for parking The applicant originally agreed not to provide
any type of fast-food use because of the minimal parking provided
Since the approval, the applicant has spoken to several tenants that would like to locate a retail
shop on the east side of the project (Building L) The applicant is proposing to connect Budding
K and L with one wall The applicant also has a tenant who would like to open an ice
cream/coffee shop along Foothill Boulevard (Budding C,) which would require a modification to
the Conditional Use Permit to allow afast-food type use in this building only The parking has
been modified at a minimum to provide the additional three parking spaces regwred All other
buildings are proposed as approved at the last Planning Commission hearing
Staff Comments The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee
discussion
Major Issues The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion

Conditional use permrt#
SUBT PM16767-DRC-01128
I will try to modify the condrt~onal use of the buildings C. K and L as follows
First, The Budding C When I received the conditional use permit, this
mternat~onal restaurant village did not have a coffee shop, a ice cream shop and
a juice shop to begin with. In order to complete the center related with
mternat~onal foods, we need to modify the conditional use from the restaurant
to a fast food restaurant at the building C
Second, The Budding K and L When I received the conditional use permit, we
did not own the next land. Now we own the next land so we want to spread the
restaurants from the area which has many restaurants to next land therefore we
want to modify the conditional use from restaurant to retail shop at the budding
L.
Third, The Building K and L are merged because when the conditional use
permit was issued from city, motorcycle parking lots and bicycle parking lots
were not provided In order to provide these parking lots, we need to merge the
bwldmg K and L

ANALYSIS
Backoround The protect was originally scheduled for Planning Commission approval
September 14, 2005 The applicant requested an additional time extension of 60 days to review
design options No revisions have been made, and the applicant would like to move forward
with the protect at this time •
General The project is located on the north side of Foothill Boulevard, dust west of Sammy's
Liquor store and east of Sacred Heart Church Existing multi-family apartments are to the north
and Foothill Boulevard is to the south The property is relatvely flat with sparse trees, therefore,
the applicant has submitted a Tree Removal Permit
The applicant is proposing a 10-lot subdrvision, which will include 10 freestanding restaurant
buildings with 2 retail buildings totaling 51,700 square feet The applicant is proposing a
uniform design theme for all of the buildings, which includes stacked stone and stucco as the
main materials tower elements, cornice trim, awnings, and a large color palette Route 66
features will be added on Foothill Boulevard to include low walls, a large fountain, trellis, and
decorative concrete within the plaza areas and at all building entries The project also
incorporates decorative drive aisles at Foothill Boulevard and nine flagpoles as part of the
International Restaurant theme
According to the applicant, all of the restaurants will be sit-down restaurants, no fast food or
take out is allowed Because the parking meets only the minimum requirements, no outdoor
seating or expansion of the restaurants will be allowed unless the applicant formally requests
modifications, with the addition of parking to the site
A Design Review Committee The Committee (McPhail, Stewart, and Coleman) reviewed
the project on August 2, 2005 The applicant agreed to minor modifications to the
buildings and landscaping

the property A reciprocal access agreement is regwred The applicant intends to
maintain the property through a property management company
C Tree Removal Permit. The applicant has submitted a request for the removal of 46 trees
on site An Arborist Report was submitted (Jim Borer, January 29, 2005) No
eucalyptus windrows exist on site Replacement of the trees is regwred at a 1 to 1 ratio,
with minimum 15- gallon size trees The landscape palette will be consistent with
surrounding development and include relocation of two Olroe trees on-site
D Environmental Assessment The applicant completed Part I of the Initial Study Staff
completed Part II of the Initial Study and found that there could be significant adverse
environmental impacts on short-term air quality during the site preparation Such
impacts would be caused by grading and equipment exhaust Mitigation measures will
be regwred to reduce the short-term air quality impact to aless-than-signifcant level If
the Planning Commission concurs, issuance of a Mitigated Negative Declaration would
be in order.
