Cultural Heritage Board Agenda May 15, 2024
Pursuant to the City Council Meeting Rules adopted by Resolution No. 24076,
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
delay or disruption in the proceedings or a refusal to obey the orders of the City
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.
The City is resolute in its commitment to eliminate any form of harassment,
discrimination, or retaliation in the workplace. The City maintains a zero-tolerance

4 PLANNING CASE DP-2024-00444 (HD): Proposal by Vince and Kimberly Bueno to
consider a Historic Designation request for designation of the Corr Residence as a
Structure of Merit. The property is located at 5310 Candlewick Court, on the
southeast side of Candlewick Court cul-de-sac, in Ward 3. The Community &
Economic Development Department recommends that the Cultural Heritage Board

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’s historic status. Contact Planner: Scott Watson,
Historic Preservation Officer, (951) 826-5507, swatson@riversideca.gov.
