Recreation: Life's Necessity
All too often we think of recreation in terms of
sports ... softball, swimming, tennis, etc. Also, we frequently
tend to think of recreation as something that children are
involved in after school or while on summer vacation.
But recreation is really much more. It can be reading a book,
gardening, taking a class in photography or simply sitting on
the beach to watch the sunset. Recreation is basically what each
of us does with our leisure time to enhance and make the quality
of our lives richer and more enjoyable.
Living in Southern California provides a wealth of
recreational opportunities for each of us to explore within a
relatively short distance.
Have you been to the Griffith Park Observatory or Zoo? How
about the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena, which houses
some of the finest art treasures in the world.
Have you hiked for a picnic lunch with your family? Or built
a snowman in Mt. Baldy?
Closer to home ... how about an after dinner stroll around
the neighborhood or an early morning bicycle ride before
beginning the day's routine.
The offerings listed in the following pages provide recreation
opportunities offered by your Community Services Department
and are one source to consider when thinking of leisure time
activities. But think also of the leisure resources available
through your library; Chaffey Community College offering
classes on a subject that interests you; and your local newspaper
or the Calendar Section of the Los Angeles Times, for southland
attractions and activities.
"Life: Be In It!" is the motto of the National Recreation and
Parks Association. It is the concept we should all take to
heart . . . Participate . . . Get Involved . . . Enjoy
Yourself . . . You're Worth It! ■

� Oh, Say Can You See ...
Many parents ask to observe classes. The decision on
this matter rests with the instructor. We find that it is
generally distracting for the children when there are
observers in the class. Most of our programs have built
in an opportunity for you to see the results of your
children's efforts or the progress they have been
making. We ask you to abide by the wishes of your
child's instructor in this matter.

ABOUT YOUR CITY
The Community Services Department
Quality recYeation and cultural services for all
The Community Services Department
encompasses a wide range of programs
and services. Its primary focus is to
enhance the quality of life for Rancho
Cucamonga residents in the areas of
leisure and cultural services. Operating
under the direction of the City Manager,
the Department prepares and presents to
the City Council and the Park and
Recreation Commission recommenda-
for quality community services.
Operationally, the Department is made up
of three divisions — Administration, Park
Development, and Recreation Services.
The Administrative Division, in addition
to providing general overall direction and
support for the activities of the
Department, reviews and directs action on
related legislative activities, develops the
Cit�s quarterly newsletEer, The Grapevine,
and provides public information and
liaison services for the community.
The Park Development Division is
concerned with where park facilities are
located and what will best rneet the needs
of our community today and in the future.
Acquisition of park land, site design
through community input, and facility
construction, are all part of the acfivities
of fhis Division. Currently the City has 13
parks totaling 149.75 acres in operation
with an additional 13 acres under
construction, 148.5 acres under design
plus an additional 50 acres under
negotiation for acquisition.
The Recreation Division plans and
conducts a variety of programs auned at
providing opportunities for everyone to
get involved in Ieisure activities. From
sports to educational classes to swim
lessons hundreds of classes are offered
each quarter at the Lions Park Conununity
Center, the Rancho Cucamonga
Neighborhood Center, or other locations
throughout the city. The most visible
section of the Recreation Div'rsion is
special events. Special events through the
City range from Teddy Bear Teas and Big
Wheel Nationals to the Am1ua1 Founders
Day Parade, Pep Days and the 4th of July
picnic. Two very special events that the
City is planning this year is the 3rd
seginent of the Bicentennial of the U.S.
Constitution celebration and the 150th
anniversary of the land grant for our
community. In addition to recreational
activities and special events, the
Recreation Division also operates an active
senior adult program and an information
and referral service for senior citizens.
Lastly, the Division acts as liaison and
coordinator for various social and public
service programs for our City.
Working toward being aUle to provide
leisure and cultural services for all
residents of Rancho Cucamonga is truly
the motto of the Community Services
Department. Whether it be the oppor-
tunity for residents of our community to

learn skills for present and future
enjoyment, the Community Services
Department is here working for you the
individuals that make up our community.

TRAIL FENCING: A HIGH QUALITY IMAGE
Cornn�unity 1Vlulti-Purpo�e Trails
An important community asset
Rancho Cucamonga is rapidly
developing a high quality, upscale image.
In addition to our fine parks, our trail
system greatly contributes to this image.
They benefit all of the City in a number of
ways, including increasing property
values and enhancing general community
pride.
One of the most recognizable features
in our community are the Community
Trails which line many of our streets.
These Community Trails help to preserve
the rural character of the City and are a
reminder of our proud agricultural
heritage. But Community Trails do much
more than create a sense of community
identity.
Ti�ails Promote an Alterrlative to Cars. The
trail system plays an iinportant part in the
City's commitment to reducing our
dependence on the automobile. The trails
are designed to accommodate many types
of different users, including joggers,
walkers, bicyclists and horseback riders.
When completed, the trail system will
provide convenient and safe access to
schools, shopping and employment
centers.
Trails Provide Access to Recreational
Facilities. Coupled with the City's goal to
establish the finest parks in Southern
California, is the creation of an
interconnected system of trails which will
link the various parks. The City's Master
Plan of Trails lays the foundation for an
overall network of trails that connect the
recreation areas, such as the San
Bernardino National Forest in the
foothills, City parks, and open spaces. As
our population increases, so too will the
need for trails which provide recreational
opportunities for bicycling, running,
wallcing, and horseback riding.
Trails Help Protect the Environment. As
puUlicly dedicated lands, the Community
Trails help to conserve open space and
environmentally sensitive areas. Many of
the trails follow naturai drainage courses
and scenic canyons. By providing access
to public lands, the trails serve as a means
for residents to experience and enjoy
nature and a diversity of plants and animal
life that is rare in a city setting.
Trails Contribute to a Quality Comniunify.
The Community Trails are an asset for the
community which contributes to a higher
quality of life. As a recreational
opportunity and attractive streetscape,
trails help reinforce community identity
and increase property values. During the
process of developing the City's General
Plan, residents placed a very high priority
on open space and providing well
thought-out recreation facilities such as
trails.

foundation sponsored the annual Benefit
Ball on February 4, 1989, at Red Hill

scholarships in both the performing and
visual arts were to be awarded to
deserving students was made at the Ball.
The Foundation hopes to encourage
talented students to pursue careers in the
arts by continuing this scholarship
tradition.

The City of Rancho Cucamonga's trails are
a distinctive contribution to the quality
image that has made Rancho Cucamonga
the premier community in the Inland
Empire. The trails feature white rail
fencing that is reminiscent of fine country
estates. This fencing not only provides a
more attractive trail, but also promotes
safety for the trail user by separating the
trail from the cars. Trail fencing in the
equestrian area provides a controlled path
for the horses to follow rather than using
the public street. Attractive landscaping
completes the trail system and promotes a
quality image. It is important that the trails
in the equestrian areas are not exclusively
designed for horses, but are designed to
be used for walking, jogging and bicycling
as well. The equestrians that use these
trails provide an important contribution to
the sense of high quality that benefits us
ail. Watching others use the trails is nearly
as much fun as using them ourselves. ■

awareness in the City of Rancho

The Foundation is exploring the
possibility of sponsoring an Arts Festival
during 1989, featuring both visual and
performing arts. The Foundation hopes to
continue its tradition of promoting local
groups and individuais during the coming
year. Interested citizens are encouraged to
contact City Hall at 989-1851 for details. �

The City's Street Sweeping Program
consists of five sweeper operators working
on a 4-10 hour day work week, three
vacuum sweepers and two broom

pickup schedule and is swept as follows:
• Residential areas are swept every two
weeks, the day following refuge pickup.

of the Rains family's span here. In 1861
when John and Merced Rains with their
three children moved into the new brick
house (Casa de Rancho Cucamonga), the
Civil War was just beginning.
Cucamonga was a little past half way on
the route from Pueblo de Los Angeles to
San Bernardino and was a convenient rest
stop on what was an all day stage coach
trip. The route started at the Bella Union
Hotel in Los Angeles which was loeated a
few blocks from today's Olivera Street.
(John Rains was part owner of the Bella
Union Hotel.) The stage departed at seven
in the morning on Mondays and
Thursdays in Los Angeles. The return trip
to Los Angeles began at the Jacobs Hotel
in San Bernardino on Wednesdays and
Saturdays.
Eight dollars bought you a one-way
ticket. By comparison, it cost two hundred
dollars to travel by stage from Tipton,
Missouri to San Francisco. In good
weather, passengers rode in leather slung
Concord Coaches. In bad weather, the
people traveled in what was called a mud
wagon which was rougher but somewhat
faster on the rain soaked roads.
Because the Civil War had closed the
southern Oxbow Route, many passengers
and some mail came inland by stage after
their ships had docked in San Pedro and
San Francisco. San Francisco was also the
terminus of the northern Butterfield
Overland Route. This interrelation of
routes brought many interesting people
through the Cucamonga Waystation.
The arrival of the passenger and mail
stage was a big event of the day. Regular
army officers, both Union and
Confederate, came through Cucamonga
from desert outposts to sail for the eastern
battlefields. Some of the officers of the
local garrisons were later to become
famous generals; Armistead and Hancock
who faced each other across the lines at
Gettysburg had stopped in Cucamonga.
Major Carleton, who fought local Indians
and controlled riots in San Bernardino,
eventually became a Brigadier General.
Carleton also led California volunteers on
campaigns to clear Confederates and
Apaches from outposts in Arizona, New
Mexico and Texas.
The freighters with wagons loaded with
supplies for the military, for miners, and
for frontier settlements thought
Cucamonga a favorite overnight camping
spot.
One of the most unusual sites for
residents of this area, however, must have
been the coming of the fast but lumbering
camel mail and military messenger service
to the desert outposts. The arrival of Hadji
Ali, Greek George, or Elias Calles in their
is swept once a month.
• City owned parking lots are swept
weekly on varying days.
• New subdivisions are not swept until
the developments are accepted by the
City. This can create a delay in the City
providing sweeping service to these
areas after occupancy, but before
acceptance.
The goal of the City's Street Sweeping
Program is to provide residents with a
clean environment in which to live, work
and play. Residents wishing additional
information concerning this Program are
encouraged to contact the Engineering
Division's Maintenance Section at,
989-2813. ■
colorful outfits thundering through the
Cucamonga Waystation on their way to
deliver the express mail must have caused
great excitement in Cucamonga.
Travel modes and times have changed
greatly since the time of John and Merced
Rains. What was then a slow and
cumbersome full day's journey from Los
Angeles to San Bernardino is now just a
little more than an hour's trip. One thing,
however, has remained constant over the
past hundred and fifty years — many
interesting people have and will continue
to pass through what is now the city of
Rancho Cucamonga continuing to make
our city rich with local history and
folklore.

COMMUNITY AWARENESS
Vehicle Parking and Storage
A commitment to excellence
Cars, trucks, R. V.'s and trailers are as
prevalent in the City of Rancho
Cucamonga as is the case in most
Southern California cities. Nearly every
household has a need for transportation,
recreation or a vehicle which is essential to
our livelihood. Sometimes, we just take
pride in owning a unique or classic
vehicle. It is a fact of life however, that our
ability to acquire vehicles often exceeds
the space that is available to properly park
or store them.
The quality of life that we experience is
related to the maintenance of a pleasant
environment where we live and work. The
accumulation of vehicles in residential
neighborhoods and commercial centers
can detract from the appearance of these
areas. To ensure that vehicle parking and
storage does not become a neighborhood
problem, the city has adopted rules and
regulations to help control parking, on
both public and private property. The size
or type of vehicle, or the location on the
property where it can be legally parked is
set forth specifically in the City Municipal
Code. The following are examples of
parking regulations which are frequently
enforced within the City.
Oversize Commercial Vehicles and
Equipment: Large trucks, semi-tractor/
trailers, and specialized work related
vehicles and equipment are not
permitted to be parked or stored in
residential districts. The only time such
vehicles are even permitted in these
areas is when they are in the process of
doing work, or making a pick-up or
delivery. Large commercial vehicles are
required to be parked and stored on
private property in the industrial areas
of the City.
Recreational Vehicles: Motorhomes,
campers, boats, trailers and other large
recreational equipment are required to
be stored away from streets within
interior side yards or rear yard areas,
and to be screened from view by at least
a five foot high view obscuring fence.
These vehicles may be parked in the
driveway in front of a residence only for
limited periods of time not exceeding 24
hours. Recreational vehicles are not
permitted to be stored on City streets or
to be parked on the street overnight.
They may be parked on the street
temporarily for loading or unloading. In
the case of a trailer being parked on the
street, it must at all times be attached to
a towing vehicle.
• Passenger Cars and Light Trucks:
Parking requirements for passenger
vehicles are applicable to all vehicles in
addition to other more specific
requirements. The most basic parking
requirement is that vehicles must be
parked on a paved surface. Permanent
paving material such as concrete or
asphalt is required. Areas such as a
paved driveway at a residence or
parking lots when constructed of
permanent paving material are
considered appropriate parking areas.
When increasing the size of a driveway
or parking area it is best to check with
the City first, as the size and location of
parking areas is often limited. The
second most common parking problem
is the storage of a vehicle on the public
street. Leaving a vehicle on the public
street for more than 72 consecutive
hours is prohibited. Any vehicle which
is used infrequently should be parked
in the garage or driveway, rather than
on the street.
Inoperative VehiclesNehicle Repair: An
inoperative vehicle is any vehicle which
is unregistered, wrecked, dismantled,
disabled or unable to be legally
operated on the public street. Inopera-
tive vehicles and vehicles which are
undergoing repairs must be parked
within the enclosed garage or a yard
area which is completely screened from
view.
• Parking Vehicles for Sale or Display:
When selling a vehicle it may only be
displayed "For Sale" at the owners
residence. Parking a vehicle with a"For
Sale" sign in a shopping center parking
lot, or on a vacant lot, is not permitted.
The owner of a property cannot even
give permission for this activity.
The Planning Division/Code
Enforcement Office responds to com-
plaints and acts on parking violations
which occur on private property. Code
Enforcement also assists the San
Bernardino County Sheriff's Office with
the enforcement of parking violations
occurring on public streets. The objective
is to obtain voluntary compliance with
Municipal Code requirement by providing
information and assistance to our
residents. Gaining the cooperation of the
vehicle owner in correcting the problem is
always the goal. For most violations a
warning will be posted on the vehicle or
given to the owner by a Code Enforcement
Officer to inform them of code require-
m�nts, and allow them time to correct the
problem. Unfartunately, it is sometimes
necessary to issue a citation for repeated
violations, or for violations of the
California Vehicle Code occurring on City
streets.
Your cooperation and support is needed
to maintain the quality environment of
Rancho Cucamonga. Understanding and
complying with the City's parking regula-
tions, and passing along that information
to others is an essential part of this
process.
For further information regarding
vehicle parking and storage, and other
Municipal Code requirements, you may

Enfarcement Office at, 989-1861. ■
STOP THE SPREAD!
Tl�e Eucalyptus
Longhorn Borer Beetle
The Eucalyptus Longhorn Borer,
introduced into Southern California in
1984, is now a well established pest
throughout Rancho Cucamonga. It
threatens the continued existence of our
historic windrows and all other species of
eucalyptus used in the City's residential
and commercial landscapes.
The female beetle is nocturnal, live 40-
180 days and lays up to 300 eggs in a
lifetime. There can be 2 to 3 generations
per year. After the eggs hatch on the tree
trunk, the larvae move down into the trees
cambium tissues where tree growth and
nutrient movement occur. There the
larvae create feeding galleries that can
extend several feet from the point of
origin. Multiple feeding galleries can
eventually girdle the tree causing rapid
death. We have found that by the time
symptoms are visible (branch die-back
and general decline) the tree is too far gone
to save.
The larvae will pupate in the tree even
if it's cut down and emerge as adults to
mate and reinfest other susceptible trees.
Unfortunately, there are no pesticides
available to combat the beetle.
The most susceptible trees are those
which have become stressed for one
reason or another, but moisture stress
(lack of sufficient soil moisture to maintain
vigor) seems to be the main stress causing
factor.
What can you do to keep your trees in
good health and reduce the spread of this
destructive pest?
• Keep trees from becoming stressed by
providing summertime irrigation.
Water slowly and deeply around the
tree's dripline, not against the tree's
trunk. Irrigate every 2 weeks or so
depending on temperature.
o Prune branches and cut firewood
during winter and early spring months
when adult beetles are not active.
• Fresh wounds attract the beetle, so all
trimming should be done during winter
months whffe the adults are less active.
• If you have Eucalyptus firewood, keep
it tarped to the ground for a minimum
of six months sealing the tarp edges
with soil to prevent emerging adults
from reinfesting other trees. Do not
move firewood out of the City.
• If your tree dies from Borer attack, have
the tree removed and buried at a dump
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Pilot Residential Recycling Program
You can make the difference
The City of Rancho Cucamonga began
a pilot residential recycling program on
January 7, 1989. The residential recycling
program involves residents voluntarily
dropping off their recyclable commodities
each Saturday at one of three designated
locations. The City's franchised haulers,
Rancho Disposal, Yukon Disposal, and
Western Waste Industries, provide
dumpsters for commodities along with
personnel to help monitor the program.
Selected service clubs/organizations
coordinate the activities at each of the
designated locations.
All of the monies collected for recycled
commodities are returned to the City
of Rancho Cucamonga. The City then
♦ ♦ '
allocates 75% of the funds received to the
service club/organization; 25%o of the
funds are earmarked for an educational
project to be determined by the residents
of Rancho Cucamonga.
Residents are encouraged to participate
in this pilot program by dropping off their
recyclable commodities, e.g., glass,
aluminum and newspapers on Saturday
mornings between 9:00 a.m. -1:00 p.m. at
either Lions Park Community Center (9161
site or be sure to tarp all wood as
described above. Trees should be
removed as quickly as possible after
death to prevent further infestation
from the pupae in the dead tree.
The University of California
Cooperative Extension (714) 387-2171,
California Department of Food and
Agriculture (714) 387-2105 and the
California Department of Forestry (714)
782-4162 are agencies which can be
contacted for further information
concerning this pest.
These agencies have jointly prepared an
informational handout. They have
provided the City with an initial supply of
these handouts which are available at the
Administration and Engineering Public
Counters at City Hall. ■
