~ Feeling is a property`s expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular
<br /> period of time.
<br /> ~ ~?ssociation is the direct link between an important historic event or person and a
<br /> historic property.
<br /> To be eligible for listing in the NRHP, a property will satisfy mast, if not all, aspects of integrity. In
<br /> same cases, depending on the nature of the significance ~i.e., which criterion of significance is
<br /> being dernanstrated~, one or more aspects of integrity may be less critical. Far example, a property
<br /> that is significant for architectural merit would usually require integrity of design, materials, and
<br /> workmanship, and, most likely, feeling. The test far integrity for architecturally significant
<br /> properties is retention of thaw physical features that characterize the type, period, method of
<br /> construction, or architect that the property represents ~i.e., the "character~defining features"7.
<br /> Similarly, a property significant far historic association may have a lower degree of integrity of
<br /> design or workmanship. However, it is important to note that properties significant for historic
<br /> association should represent their period of significance when the important event occurred or
<br /> person was associated; the test is whether a historical contemporary would recognize the property
<br /> as it exists today.

<br /> lntegrity is defined by the CRHR as the authenticity of a historical resource's physical identity
<br /> evidenced by the survival of characteristics that existed during the resource's period of significance.
<br /> To be eligible for the CRHR, a resource must retain enough of its historic character or appearance
<br /> to be recognizable as a historical resource and to convey the reason for its significance.
<br /> Rehabilitated or restored resources are eligible, as are resources whose alterations may have gained
<br /> significance in their awn right. As with the NRHP, CRHR integrity is evaluated with respect to
<br /> location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. The relative importance
<br /> of each of these aspects depends an which criterion of significance is being employed. It is
<br /> possible that historical resources may not retain sufficient integrity far NRHP eligibility but may still
<br /> be eligible for the CRHR, if it rnaintains the potential to yield significant scientific or historical
<br /> information or data.'4

<br /> The question of integrity of potential SARHP candidates is not specifically discussed in Chapter ~a
<br /> of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, although Section 30-~.3 does note that loss of integrity is a valid
<br /> reason to remove a property from the SARHP. In practice, individual listings in the SARHP do
<br /> possess a relatively high level of exterior integrity, as seen from the public right~of-way, Far
<br /> example, if more than 5a percent of exterior materials must be replaced, the building would not be
<br /> eligible unless the property also meets other criteria, such as association with a significant person
<br /> ar event. Such exceptions have occurred when a property was located in the Downtown Historic
<br /> District or when historic importance or association under Criteria 3, 4, or 6 weighed heavily in the
<br /> evaluation. Certain types of alterations automatically eliminate a property frorr~ further
<br /> consideration of eligibility, such as an inappropriate stucco finish or texture ar modification of
<br /> windows or window sizes. For the current evaluation, a residence whose original exterior materials
<br /> and architectural detailing have been altered, windows changed, andlor porch enclosed or
<br /> modified would not be considered eligible for the SARHP, Merely dating to a historic period in
<br /> Santa Ana history has not been considered sufficient to warrant nomination to the SARHP.
