The Historic Resources Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby <br />finds, determines, and declares as follows: <br />A. On September 7, 2023, the Historic Resources Commission held a duly <br />noticed public hearing for the placement on the Santa Ana Register of <br />Historical Properties (Historic Resources Commission Application No. <br />2023-17) and categorization (Historic Resources Commission <br />Categorization No. 2023-3) of the Geddes -Charlton House located at 1908 <br />North Greenleaf Street, Santa Ana. <br />B. The Geddes -Charlton House has distinctive architectural features of the <br />Tudor Revival style and was built in 1934. <br />C. The Geddes -Charlton House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register <br />of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Tudor <br />Revival style home in Santa Ana. The house displays characteristics of the <br />Tudor Revival style through its use of steeply pitched multi -gable roof; <br />primary facade dominated by two prominent front -facing and steeply <br />pitched gables; decorative half-timbering at gables end; tall, narrow <br />windows in multiple groups with multi -pane glazing; wood shingle roof; <br />prominent chimney; among other original features. The recommended <br />categorization is "Key" because it has a distinctive architectural style and <br />quality reflective of the Tudor Revival style (Santa Ana Municipal Code, <br />Section 30-2.2). This category is reserved for structures exemplifying <br />greater architectural significance than the "Contributive" category, in <br />addition to contributing to the overall neighborhood or district within the City <br />of Santa Ana. The property is worthy of "Key" status due to the building's <br />Tudor Revival style and quality craftsmanship which features steeply - <br />pitched multi -gable roof; half-timbering; and multi -light wood windows that <br />are both fixed and casement style, among other original features. <br />Character -defining features of the Geddes -Charlton House include, but <br />may not be limited to: wood shake roof; steeply pitched cross -gable roof <br />Historic Resources Commission 1 — 7 9/7/2023 <br />Resolution No. 2023-XX <br />Page 1 of 6 <br />
