aka The Bob and Dolores Hope Residence, designed by John Lautner, aka the ‘Volcano House’
http://usmodernist.org/lautner.htm
"1979 - The Bob and Dolores Hope Residence, 2466 Southridge Drive, Palm Springs CA. Commissioned 1969. Close to the Elrod House. Has 17,531 square feet, has six bedrooms and ten bathrooms. Located in a gated community, no public access. Built by Wally Niewiadomski. Lautner got the help of noted concrete expert Felix Candela in 1970. The first design burned down in 1973 during construction. Dolores Hope made sweeping interior changes to the second 1977 design - so much so that Lautner eventually distanced himself from the project. Photos by Tasya Van Ree and Warren Lawson. Deeded to daughter Linda Hope. Sold in 2016 to Ron Burkle. Helena Arahuete is doing a restoration."

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 calendar days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

santa santa

Good Afternoon,

In looking through the list of records you’re requesting, it does not appear that the Assessor-County Clerk-Recorder is the holder of the records in your request. The records are likely found throughout multiple agencies throughout the county and I’ve provided the contact information for those that I believe would have most of the information that you’re requesting.

Also, I have attached a printout that can be accessed online from County of Riverside’s Transportation and Land Management Agency (TLMA) that contains a good deal of information and I thought might be; procedures below for future reference:
i. Click on link: https://enterprisegis.rivcoca.org/Html5Viewer/?viewer=MMC
ii. Search by Address > type in address and proper address in drop down list > click on “search”
iii. Click on parcel within the yellow box that appears on the map > pop-out panel will appear > select “Full report for this parcel”
iv. Click on link in the left navigation bar that says “Report for APN XXXXXXXXX”
