FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2023-XXX Page 2 of 8 G.The proposed exterior modifications to the three-bedroom, single-story residence include the partial demolition of an existing bedroom at the building’s northwest corner to accommodate a new rear addition, and an interior remodel consisting of removing an interior laundry room and expanding the existing kitchen by approximately 229 square feet, and a new interior master bathroom. The proposed building addition will accommodate a new master bedroom with walk-in-closet addition of approximately 261 square feet. The existing bedroom will be reconfigured into a new master bathroom of approximately 144 square feet, providing the residence with a second bathroom while maintaining the residence’s three bedroom count.

The salvaged rear (west) elevation window to replace the existing south elevation window will maintain the property’s historic window materials and will be located towards the west (rear) half of the south elevation, further away from the street. iii.The project complies with Standard No. 3. The proposed changes will not create a false sense of historical development. The proposed addition will read as contemporary in comparison to the existing single-family residence, which incorporates distinctive architectural features of the English Revival style.
