The subject property is found in Township 4S, Range 1W, Section 33 of the USGS 7.5’ San Jacinto Quadrangle, designated Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) 436- 600-12,13,14. The parcel is situated on South Lyon Avenue between Seventh Street and Esplanade Avenue in the City of San Jacinto. The intended future use of the property includes services related to the Baypoint Preparatory Academy Charter School for grades K-12. (Figures 2, 3). An in-person records review was conducted by SRS personnel on April 10, 2018 at the Eastern Information Center (EIC) at the University of California at Riverside (EIC). Previously identified historical/archaeological resources including properties designated in the California Points of Historical Interest (SPHI), the California Historical Landmarks (SHL), the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), the California State Historic Properties Directory (HPD), Riverside County Historical Landmarks and the City of San Jacinto local historic resource listings were reviewed. According to EIC records, one prehistoric resource consisting of a single artifact was found in a trench within a half-mile of the APE. Its location was on South Lyon Street in unconsolidated floodplain alluvium (silty sand) suggesting that cultural resources may be located during area grading in alluvial strata. A total of 27 historic resources were recorded within a mile of the property documented in 28 reports. Two of the historic resources were Vernacular Wood Frame residences previously located on APN 436-600-12,13,14. An extensive historic map and aerial photo search also showed the location of the two structures on the property and as part of an area related to agricultural farmsteads. Both resources were designated on lists of locally significant resources. The structures along Lyons Street and within the region reflect the rural atmosphere characteristic of the San Jacinto-Hemet Valley. Dating from 1892 to 1947, nearly every historic building is a remnant of an early agricultural effort including Hanson Stock Farm, Crosby Farms, K.G. Rancho, and Hillview Farm to mention a few. The architectural styles of the residences varied from Vernacular Wood Frame Rural Farm Style to California Craftsman Bungalows to Vernacular Ranch Houses. Barns, tank houses and even a Milking Barn have also been documented around Lyons Street. The two historic structures that were once on the subject property were simple examples of Vernacular Wood Frame houses. Dating to 1910 and 1913, the residences were considered to be good examples of San Jacinto early rural residences according to a 1981 survey by the Riverside County Historical Commission in Rubidoux who stated they were ‘unaltered, unadorned homes typical of the vernacular style of this area’ and good examples of ‘rural architecture in the San Jacinto area’. A current aerial photograph illustrates that no houses now exist on APN-436-600-12,13,14. However there are remains of foundations or trash pits particularly at the end of a dirt road leading onto the parcel but also in at least four additional locations as exposed on the photograph. This historic debris indicates that subsurface materials related to families living in the two historic residences will be unearthed during grading operations. Archaeological monitoring by a Riverside County Certified archaeologist and a Native American Tribal Monitor is strongly recommended during all earth-moving activities. In general, any soil-disturbing activity, including foundation removal, excavation, grading, utilities installation, and driving of piles for shoring or foundation work pose risks to subsurface archaeological resources. Trash dumps, glass bottles, tin cans, shotgun shells, privies, changes in soil colorations, human or animal bone, pottery, chipped or shaped stone, shell-midden, etc. are all potential indications of an historic or prehistoric archaeological site. Therefore, caution should be taken during ground-disturbing activities and an on-site monitor is crucial during any grading efforts. _____________________________________________________________________________________ 1 _____________________________________________________________________________________ Figure 1.

The ancestral territories for the Luiseño/ Juaneño and the Cahuilla Indians are located around the modern City of San Jacinto, but the ancient territorial borders remain vague for two reasons: first, territorial boundaries were probably more flexible than rigid (Kroeber 1925) and, secondly, indigenous borders and land use was not recorded until after European contact destroyed native lifeways (Padon 2010). Although firm and defining borders cannot be known, there is archaeological, ethnographic, and historic evidence to support prehistoric use by both groups. Following European contact, members of the Luiseño and Cahuilla tribes coalesced into the Soboba Band (of the Luiseño Indians) post-contact (The Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians 2015). Late Pleistocene (16,000 to 10,000 B.P.) Cultural occupations are archaeologically assessed through the presence or absence of time sensitive cultural resources. Although foraging peoples used the San Jacinto region to hunt and gather resources by the Late Pleistocene, there is little archaeological evidence to elucidate

  • 3.8 Biological Resources
    Section 3.8 – Biological Resources 3.8 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES 3.8.1 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this section is to identify existing biological resources within the planning area covered by the proposed project, analyze potential biological impacts, and recommend mitigation measures to avoid or lessen the significance of any identified adverse impacts. The assessment of impacts to biological resources is a qualitative review of the existing biological resources within the City and its SOI and a determination of whether the proposed project includes adequate provisions to ensure the protection of these resources. Given the programmatic nature of the PEIR, specific impacts to individual properties or areas are not identified or known at this time. 3.8.2 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The information contained in this Environmental Setting section is primarily from information contained in the City of Lake Elsinore General Plan Background Reports (see Chapter 3 – Biological Resources). This document is attached as Appendix B to this PEIR. The City and SOI are located in the Elsinore Valley, which is generally bounded on the west by the east flank of the rugged Santa Ana Mountains and on the west by gently sloping hills. The San Jacinto River and Temescal Wash cut through the valley, converging at Lake Elsinore. The area contains a mixture of land developed for residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, and agricultural uses and undeveloped land remaining in its natural state. Approximately 16 natural vegetative communities, in addition to developed sites and agricultural uses, occur in the City and its SOI. Each of these habitats provides cover, food, and water necessary to meet biological requirements of a variety of animal species.

  • Birds of the San Jacinto Valley Important Bird Area the San Jacinto Valley
    Birds of the San Jacinto Valley Important Bird Area The San Jacinto Valley “Through this beautiful valley runs a good-sized river...on whose banks are large, shady groves... All its plain is full of fl owers, fertile pastures, and other vegetation.” So wrote Juan Bautista De Anza in 1774, describing the San Jacinto Valley as he came down from the mountains on his expedition from Tubac, Arizona, to San Francisco. When he came to what we now call Mystic Lake in the northern part of the valley, he wrote: “We came to the banks of a large and pleasing lake, several leagues in circum- ference and as full of white geese as of water, they being so numerous that it looked like a large, white glove.” It is clear from these early descriptions that the San Jacinto Valley has long been a haven for wildlife. While much of the valley has been developed over the years, the San Jacinto Valley is still amazingly rich with birds and other wildlife, and has the potential to remain so in perpetuity. This pamphlet describes a few of the many birds that make the San Jacinto Valley their home. Some species are rare and need protection, while others are common. Some migrate to the San Jacinto Valley from thousands of miles away, while others spend their entire lives within the confi nes of the valley. Our hope is that you get to know the birds of the San Jacinto Valley, and are moved to help protect them for future generations. 2 The San Jacinto Valley is the fl oodplain of the San Jacinto River in western Riverside County.

  • 4 Tribal Nations of San Diego County This Chapter Presents an Overall Summary of the Tribal Nations of San Diego County and the Water Resources on Their Reservations
    4 Tribal Nations of San Diego County This chapter presents an overall summary of the Tribal Nations of San Diego County and the water resources on their reservations. A brief description of each Tribe, along with a summary of available information on each Tribe’s water resources, is provided. The water management issues provided by the Tribe’s representatives at the San Diego IRWM outreach meetings are also presented. 4.1 Reservations San Diego County features the largest number of Tribes and Reservations of any county in the United States. There are 18 federally-recognized Tribal Nation Reservations and 17 Tribal Governments, because the Barona and Viejas Bands share joint-trust and administrative responsibility for the Capitan Grande Reservation. All of the Tribes within the San Diego IRWM Region are also recognized as California Native American Tribes. These Reservation lands, which are governed by Tribal Nations, total approximately 127,000 acres or 198 square miles. The locations of the Tribal Reservations are presented in Figure 4-1 and summarized in Table 4-1. Two additional Tribal Governments do not have federally recognized lands: 1) the San Luis Rey Band of Luiseño Indians (though the Band remains active in the San Diego region) and 2) the Mount Laguna Band of Luiseño Indians. Note that there may appear to be inconsistencies related to population sizes of tribes in Table 4-1. This is because not all Tribes may choose to participate in population surveys, or may identify with multiple heritages. 4.2 Cultural Groups Native Americans within the San Diego IRWM Region generally comprise four distinct cultural groups (Kumeyaay/Diegueno, Luiseño, Cahuilla, and Cupeño), which are from two distinct language families (Uto-Aztecan and Yuman-Cochimi).

  • Water, Capitalism, and Urbanization in the Californias, 1848-1982
    TIJUANDIEGO: WATER, CAPITALISM, AND URBANIZATION IN THE CALIFORNIAS, 1848-1982 A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Hillar Yllo Schwertner, M.A. Washington, D.C. August 14, 2020 Copyright 2020 by Hillar Yllo Schwertner All Rights Reserved ii TIJUANDIEGO: WATER, CAPITALISM, AND URBANIZATION IN THE CALIFORNIAS, 1848-1982 Hillar Yllo Schwertner, M.A. Dissertation Advisor: John Tutino, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This is a history of Tijuandiego—the transnational metropolis set at the intersection of the United States, Mexico, and the Pacific World. Separately, Tijuana and San Diego constitute distinct but important urban centers in their respective nation-states. Taken as a whole, Tijuandiego represents the southwestern hinge of North America. It is the continental crossroads of cultures, economies, and environments—all in a single, physical location. In other words, Tijuandiego represents a new urban frontier; a space where the abstractions of the nation-state are manifested—and tested—on the ground. In this dissertation, I adopt a transnational approach to Tijuandiego’s water history, not simply to tell “both sides” of the story, but to demonstrate that neither side can be understood in the absence of the other. I argue that the drawing of the international boundary in 1848 established an imbalanced political ecology that favored San Diego and the United States over Tijuana and Mexico. The land and water resources wrested by the United States gave it tremendous geographical and ecological advantages over its reeling southern neighbor, advantages which would be used to strengthen U.S.

  • Introduction
    ARTS AND CULTURE ELEMENT Introduction Arts and cultural activities are an essential part of a healthy community life and they make significant contributions to the quality of life in San Jacinto. Community-based arts and culture help to create a more livable city, enhance the urban environment, celebrate the City’s history and natural environment, engage a wide spectrum of citizens, provide significant value both to communities and artists, and help define who we are as a community. The Arts and Culture Element represents a significant step forward to demonstrate community pride and to create a desirable image for the City to attract economic development. There is great potential to expand public art in San Jacinto to the point where it becomes an identifying force for the community and economic vitality of the City. PURPOSE OF THE The purpose of the Arts and Culture Element is to describe the City’s existing ARTS AND CULTURE arts and cultural resources, identify opportunities for arts enrichment, and define goals, policies and implementation strategies to further integrate arts and LEMENT E culture into the City’s future. Although it is not a State-required element, the City is committed to supporting and expanding the local arts community and its contributions to the quality of life in San Jacinto. The Arts and Culture Element is consistent with the State of California Code (Section 65303) which grants authority to local jurisdictions to adopt additional elements to those mandated by State law when they relate to the physical development of the jurisdiction. The Arts and Culture Element is included in this General Plan with the goal of fostering a civic environment where artistic expression and cultural diversity can flourish, where the influence of arts on the local economy is recognized, and where local government and City leaders legitimize the arts as an essential component of civic support, funding and decision-making .
