FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 2 of 8 C. The proposed exterior modifications to the two-bedroom, single-story residence include a 413-square-foot rear addition to accommodate a new primary bedroom and bathroom, interior reconfiguration for a new office and tea parlor, addition of a rear patio enclosure that currently serves as a laundry room along with a new rear covered patio. D. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30 -6, the Historic Resources Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on March 7, 2024, for the request for exterior modifications to the Yeary House. E. Since the property is deemed a historic structure, all exterior modifications are required to meet the Secretary of Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. 1.

The new roof extension over the northwest addition and laundry room/rear porch will match the main house in material and design. Although a few original windows at the rear and west facades will be removed as part of the project, new windows will be added that will read as non-original but compatible with existing. Additionally, the rear (north) front gable will be rebuilt to accommodate the additions, and a new, smaller front gable will also be added to the rear, and the overall historic character of the property will be retained. iii. The project complies with Standard No. 3. The proposed changes will not create a false sense of historical development. The proposed northwest addition will read as a compatible addition to the existing single-family Colonial Revival/Craftsman Bungalow style residence, which will be lower in height than the main house and have a new gable roof to match. The addition along with the laundry room and rear porch will be distinguished through its use of wider
