I would strongly urge you to contact the planning department at the City Of Rancho Cucamonga if you believe the house is in danger. They were certainly aware of the historic nature of the home and of the original owner who was a long time planning commissioner.

I have been able to find the historic Tolstoy House built in the 1860s but not the Lautner.
