members of all Boards and Commissions and the public are reminded that they must
preserve order and decorum throughout the meeting. In that regard, members of all
Boards and Commissions, as well as the public participants are advised that any

Council, Boards and commissions, or their presiding officer constitutes a violation of
these rules.
The City of Riverside is committed to fostering a respectful workplace that requires
all employees and external stakeholders to embrace a culture of transparency and
inclusivity. This includes acceptable behavior from everyone; a workplace that
provides dignity, respect, and civility to our employees, customers, and the public
they serve. City meetings should be a place where all members of our community
feel safe and comfortable to participate. While there could be a high level of emotion
associated with topics on this agenda, the City would like to set the expectation that
all members of the public use language appropriate to a collaborative, professional,
and respectful public environment.

6 PLANNING CASE DP-2022-01381 (HD): Request by Jana Cheney to consider a
Historic Designation request for designation of the Old Martin Hoover House as a
City Structure of Merit. This property is located at 3642 Hoover Street, on the west
side of Hoover Street between Magnolia Avenue and Orchard Street, in Ward 3.
The Community & Economic Development Department recommends that the
Cultural Heritage Board recommend that the City Council determine that this
proposal is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant
to Sections 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Rule) and 15308 (Actions by Regulatory
Agencies for Protection of the Environment), as this proposal will not have a
significant effect on the environment and will preserve the historic character of a
cultural resource and provide notice of the resource historic status. Contact
