New Generation Flooring of Yucaipa, San Bernardino County, CA now offers Faux Rocks and Wall landscaping services!

Rock features are showing up everywhere. Why not add them to your repertoire? The world's great deposits of synthetic rock were once concentrated in zoos, theme parks and the occasional museum exhibit. But times have changed, and these days, faux rock is cropping up all over, from backyard pools and spas to shopping-mall waterfalls.

The demand for artificial rock is booming just about everywhere. Only in parts of Southern California has it peaked in popularity. But if someone wants to put in a sandstone waterfall, a lava-rock barbeque, or a granite grotto, why not use real rock? There are a number of reasons why faux is so popular.

  • Cost is one big factor. For the same money your customer might spend on a modest real-rock feature, they could have a mini Grand Canyon made with synthetic rock.
  • Weight is another consideration. Pool decks or other structures that would fail beneath the crushing weight of rock generally easily support faux.
  • When it comes to water features, which go hand in hand with rockwork, faux rock has no mortared joints to leak and seep like real rock features do.
  • Environmentally, faux eliminates the need to tear up to the earth to mine real rock.
  • It also offers versatility and ease of use that real rock can't touch. You don't need to bore holes through solid rock to hide the plumbing and electrical guts of a waterfall or hire a crane to hoist boulders into place.

Miscellaneous

Richard (Dick) D. Riddell is now the longest-serving mayor (and the oldest, at age 81) in Yucaipa's history, holding that title since 1999.

In 1936, twin brothers Cleo and Leo Stater bought the W. A. Davis Market and started a new way of grocery shopping that was truly unique to the Inland Empire, when they (along with their younger brother LaVoy) started the Stater Bros. Markets chain. With 166 stores in the chain (as far east as Indio, as far west as West Los Angeles, as far north as Bakersfield, and as far south as Escondido), the chain is now headquartered in a new two-million-square-foot facility in San Bernardino (at the east end of the former Norton Air Force Base, now San Bernardino International Airport). Stater Bros. is famous for its on-site butchers in each store (where customers can ask for special cuts of pork chops or spare ribs, or even ask for freshly-made chorizo). Until recently, the slogan was "It's our meat that made us famous", now replaced by "The Low Price Leader in the Heartland (and supplemented by "An American Tradition"). The chain can still call Yucaipa its "original" home, with two stores in the city: the northwest corner of Fourth Street and Yucaipa Boulevard, and in the "North Bench" area at the southeast corner of Bryant Street and Oak Glen Road., and a possible third location in the "Dunlap Acres" section near Interstate 10 and Yucaipa Boulevard.

The nearby Oak Glen area is best known for its apple orchards, some of which are operated by the direct descendants of the original founders (the Law, Wilshire, Rivers, and Parrish families). The Parrish Pioneer Ranch and orchard were founded by Enoch Parrish in 1876, with the other families coming into the area later.

At 1:53 p.m. on 16 June 2005, Yucaipa experienced a magnitude 4.9 earthquake centered four miles (6 km) north of the center of town. It was felt from downtown Los Angeles to some areas of San Diego. Minimal damage was reported.

During the school year of 2005–2006 Yucaipa High school had the highest rise of their API in the tri-county area.

Yucaipa has many community theaters, including Yucaipa Little Theater and Heartland Players.

Public safety

The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department serves Yucaipa—including the nearby unincorporated towns of Mentone, Oak Glen, Forest Falls, Angeleus Oaks, and Mountain Home Village—from its regional station at 34282 Yucaipa Boulevard (at the northwest corner with Fifth Street). Since there is no official jail facility at this station, suspects are booked at either Central Jail in downtown San Bernardino or the West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga.

Yucaipa has contracted operation of its fire department to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (now known as "Cal Fire") which serves the city from two stations: the first, at the 33000 block of Yucaipa Boulevard, just one block west of Yucaipa High School, and the second on Bryant Street just south of Oak Glen Road (in the "North Bench" area) with a third station now in operation at the southwest corner of Fifth Street and Wildwood Canyon Road.
