Staff Report
DATE: December 10, 2008
TO: Chairman and Members of the Historic Preservation Commission
FROM: James R. Troyer, AICP, Planning Director
BY: Lois J. Schrader, Planning Commission Secretary
SUBJECT: UPDATE REPORT ON THE STATUS OF HISTORIC LANDMARK
APPLICATIONS FOR THE CUCAMONGA GAS STATION AND THE
BIANE PROPERTY (PADRE VINEYARD COMPANY)
Staff recently received two applications for Landmark Designation from Ed Dietl of the Historic
Preservation Association of Rancho Cucamonga. The first applies to the historic Cucamonga
Gas Station located on Foothill Boulevard, west of Archibald Avenue. The second application
applies to the Biane property, formerly known as the Padre Vineyard Company, located on the
south side of 8th Street, west of Hermosa Avenue.
Staff has been in contact with the owners of both properties. Lamar Advertising, owners of the
Cucamonga Gas Station property, have indicated in a, letter that they do not wish to consent to
the designation of the property at this time. The owner of the Biane property has indicated by
phone that a previous application was filed for Landmark Designation a number of years ago
and that the application was "tabled" by the Council at the owner's request. Staff has been
informed that the application is still in abeyance and the owner's request is still iri force.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is requesting time to review the applications and determine their
validity considering the respective property owners' wishes. Staff will update the Commission
as new information is received.
Respectfully submitted,
~~

Subject: Former Gas Station on Foothill Blvd.
James,
In reply to designating the former gas station on Foothill near Archibald to a historical landmark:
Lamar Advertising is not willing to grant property owner approval of the property reclassification,
at this time. Giyen the current economic conditions, Lamar wishes to keep its' options open to
either dedicate or sell the subject property.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call or email me.
Thanks,
Brian
