Also address integrity) <br /> <br />The Fuller-Utt House is architecturally significant as an intact and representative example of the English Revival style and <br />historically notable for its association with a prominent Santa Ana resident, James Utt. The original building permit, issued in <br />November 1930, indicates that the house was built for $5,000 by Roy Roscoe Russell, one of the original developers of Floral Park. <br />When the improvement first appeared in city directories in 1932, Ralph D. Fuller, an assistant trust officer with the Bank of America, <br />and his wife Edna were listed as the home's first occupants. By 1936, the residence was the home of James B. Utt, whose father <br />Charles had been one of the founders and early settlers of Tustin, California. James Utt and his wife Charlena remained in the <br />home until 1939. During this time, Utt served as assemblyman for the 74th district in the California State Assembly. By 1937, Utt <br />had been appointed state inheritance tax appraiser, a position he held until 1952. (In 1953, Utt began a nearly twenty-year term as <br />a congressperson in the United States House of Representatives.) From 1939 to at least the early 1960s, Mrs. Mattie C. Long, who <br />operated a hemstitching and button shop on Fourth Street, occupied the residence. <br /> <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) <br /> <br />811.
