Planning Commission Staff Report: April 27, 2021 HP0-000-093; 602 Aqua Mansa Road - Page 4 of 7 BACKGROUND The subject site is located within the Agua Mansa Historic District (see Exhibit B). Section 15.40.100(A)(1) of the Colton Municipal Code states that a Certificate of Appropriateness is required to be approved by the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) for any new construction or subdivision within an historic district. Further, an approval shall require the Commission to find that the action proposed is consistent with Chapter 15.40 and will not be detrimental to a historic resource or district, or that the action is necessary to correct an unsafe or dangerous condition pursuant to Section 15.40.160(A). CODE SECTION 15.40.100(A)(1) AND (3): 1. A Certificate of Appropriateness issued by the Commission or the Preservation Officer is required for any exterior alteration to any designated historic resource, for new construction on the site of a designated historic resource, for the moving of a historic resource, and for a lot split or subdivision of a historic resource. A Certificate of Appropriateness shall be required to erect or relocate any sign which is in a designated historic district or associated with a structure in a historic district. New construction on any property located in a historic district shall also require a Certificate of Appropriateness. The Community Development Department shall direct applicants for building permits and sign permits for designated historic resources and districts to apply for a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Commission through the Preservation Officer. No building, alteration, subdivision, demolition, or removal permits for any exterior improvement, sign, building, or structure within a historic resource or district shall be issued while the public hearing for designation or any appeal related thereto is pending except where a Certificate of Appropriateness has been secured. 2. The Preservation Officer Shall Use a "preservation check list" to determine if the proposal is "minor" or "major," and shall use the Design Guidelines to determine if the proposal is compatible with the existing resource and surrounding designated resources, if any. All requests for New Construction, Subdivision, Lot splits, Demolitions, or moving of a Historic Resource shall be considered a major alteration. Applications for a Certificate of Appropriateness for major alterations shall be reviewed and approved by the Commission. AGUA MANSA HISTORIC DISTRICT In 1999, Ordinance No. 0—2-99 amended the previous Historic Preservation Ordinance to allow for the creation and placement of historic districts on the list of nominated resources. City Council Resolution R-82- 00 was subsequently adopted which adopted the Cultural Resources Preservation Element of the General Plan, which included designation of six designated historic districts, including Agua Mansa as “significant in Colton’s agricultural history and the origin of the town’s Hispanic population.” Agua Mansa (i.e., "gentle water") is a former settlement, founded by a group of New Mexican settlers, in an unincorporated area of San Bernardino County. Now a ghost town, it once was the largest settlement in San Bernardino County. The town was established in 1845 on the Santa Ana River, across from the town of La Placita, on land given to the settlers by Juan Bandini, owner of the Jurupa Rancho. Agua Mansa and La Placita were the first non-native settlements in the San Bernardino Valley. Together known as "San Salvador", they were also the largest settlements between New Mexico and Los Angeles in the 1840s. The settlements were based upon farming, and raising cattle, horses and sheep. An adobe church, known as San Salvador Church, was built in Agua Mansa and became the center of community social life. In 1854, a cemetery, Agua Mansa Cemetery, was built behind the church and is now designated a California Historical Landmark (No.

Editorial Yet again, the Digest has been well supported by authors who are keen to share modern techniques to build models of the pre-grouping period. Despite, or possibly because of the period modelled, various IT based approaches have been used to tackle the problems of modelling Victorian prototypes. In this edition, there is the follow up to the item in Issue 2, in which the patterns for a Craven carriage were generated on a Cameo Duplicutter. There are two very different approaches to 3D printing and there is more on the visualisation of Lewes station before its rebuilding. I find these new approaches both refreshing and exciting, as they add whole new dimensions to the hobby and offer new opportunities. This is in no way to denigrate the more traditional skills, which may involve decorating the streets of Vintner’s Yard with horse poo, a dollop at a time.
