HRCA No. 2014 -32, HRC No. 2014 -33 <br />HPPA No. 2014 -46 <br />November 5, 2015 <br />Page 2 <br />property any building or part thereof, object, structure, or site having importance to the history or <br />architecture of the city in accordance with the criteria set forth in Section 30 -2 of the Santa Ana <br />Municipal Code (SAMC). This project entails applying the selection criteria established in <br />Chapter 30 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (Places of Historical and Architectural Significance) to <br />determine if this structure is eligible for historic designation to the Santa Ana Register of Historical <br />Properties. The first criterion for selection requires that the structures be 50 or more years old. <br />The structure identified meets the minimum selection criteria for inclusion on the Santa Ana Register <br />of Historical Properties pursuant to criteria contained in Sion 30 -2 of the Santa Ana Municipal <br />Code. No known code violations exist on record for this property. <br />The property, recognized as the Hensley and Kay House, has distinctive architectural features of the <br />Ranch style of architecture, and was built in 1956 by Hensley and Kay. Character defining features of <br />the Hensley and Kay House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to, materials and <br />finishes (stucco and texture, and wood siding); roof configuration and open rafter tails; wood <br />windows, and architectural details such as the attached garage and decorative lathed porch <br />supports (Exhibit 2). It is recommended that the house be designated to the Santa Ana Register of <br />Historical Properties and categorized as "Contributive" because it is a good example of period <br />architecture. <br />Mills Act Agreement <br />Ordinance No. NS -2382 authorized the Historic Resources Commission to execute Historic Property <br />Preservation Agreements (HPPA), commonly known as Mills Act agreements for eligible properties <br />(Exhibit 3). To be eligible for the Mills Act, the property must be listed on the Santa Ana Register of <br />Historical Properties. The Historic Resources Commission Application and Historic Register <br />Categorization actions proposed for this site authorize the listing of the property on the local register. <br />The agreement provides monetary incentive to the property owner in the form of a property tax <br />reduction in exchange for the owner's voluntary commitment to maintain the property in a good state <br />of repair as necessary to maintain its character and appearance. Once recorded, the agreement <br />generates a different valuation method in determining the property's assessed value, resulting in tax <br />savings for the owner. Aside from the tax savings, the benefits include: <br />• Long term preservation of the property and visual improvement to the neighborhood <br />• Allows for a mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation <br />• Provides additional incentive for potential buyers to purchase historic structures <br />• Discourages inappropriate alternations to the property <br />25A -18 <br />
