the City shall give written notice to Owner by registered or certified mail, and if such a violation
is not corrected to the reasonable satisfaction of the City Manager or designee within thirty (30)
days thereafter, or if not corrected within such a reasonable time as may be required to cure the
breach or default, or default cannot be cured within thirty (30) days (provided that acts to cure
the breach or default may be commenced within thirty (30) days and shall thereafter be diligently
pursued to completion by Owner), then City may, without further notice, declare a default under
the terms of this Agreement and may bring any action necessary to specifically enforce the
obligations of Owner growing out of the terms of this Agreement, apply to any court, state or
federal, for injunctive relief against any violation by Owner or apply for such relief as may be

cancel this Agreement. All other remedies at law or in equity which are not otherwise provided
for in this Agreement or in City's regulations governing historic properties are available to City

ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Minimal Traditional
During the Great Depression through the immediate postwar years, the Minimal Traditional home rose in popularity as the
preferred style for middle-class housing in the United States. This basic house type fulfilled both aesthetic and social
needs: in terms of aesthetics, the form represented a stripped -down version of the historic -eclectic styles popular in the
1920s, in particular the Tudor and English Revival styles. In social terms, the Minimal Traditional home satisfied
requirements in square footage and plan by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), which launched a campaign in
this period to expand home ownership. The Minimal Traditional home served as the prototype used by the FHA in its
efforts to codify and manufacture "a standard, low-cost, minimum house that the majority of American wage earners could
afford" (Greg Hise, Magnetic Los Angeles, p. 57). Minimal Traditional homes are typically rectangular in plan and one-
story in height, often with a front -gabled wing and prominent attached chimney. In contrast with the English and Tudor
Revival styles the one-story version mimics, the Minimal Traditional home is capped with a low or intermediate pitch roof
with a hipped or side gable. Sheathing materials include stucco, brick, or wood, often accompanied by stone veneer
accents. Fenestration generally consists of multi -light casement, double -hung, and picture windows with wood frames.
The eaves and rakes of the Minimal Traditional home are typically shallow (in a departure from the later Ranch House
style, which they often resemble). Although they have little applied ornament, many Minimal Traditional homes often
display decorative wood shutters and porch -roof supports.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION:
The Hallicy House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an example
of the Minimal Traditional style in Santa Ana. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Contributive" because it
"contributes to the overall character and history" of Floral Park and is a representative example of Minimal Traditional
architecture (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

The Hallicy House is a single -story residence designed in the Minimal Traditional style. The building has a mostly rectangular
footprint and is clad in smooth stucco. The house features a low-pitched, multi -hipped roof design. At the primary (west)
fagade, the south half of the building is setback slightly from the north. The roof is clad in composition shingles and features
eaves with little overhang and minimally exposed rafter tails. The primary fagade contains four architectural bays consisting of
two windows to the north, and the main entrance and a comer window located within the fagade's setback. The main
entrance is elevated and set back slightly into the building. It is accessible by two steps situated under a flat, rounded porch
roof that is supported by decorative metal posts. Primary fagade windows consist of two double -hung, wood -framed, six -over -
six windows with wood shutters to the north of the entrance, and double -hung and fixed wood -frame multi -light windows that
wrap around the southwest comer of the building, just south of the main entrance. The south elevation contains an additional
double -hung, wood -framed, multi -light window that wraps around a comer. Several double -hung wood -framed windows are
located throughout the south and rear (east) elevations. Secondary pedestrian doors are placed along the south and rear
elevations and consist of single, wood -framed, multi -light doors. Additional architectural details include a brick chimney along
the north elevation and a single, round, fixed window with divided lights adjacent to the main entrance. The property's rear
contains a detached patio that is covered by a shingle -clad roof with a brick chimney, and partially enclosed by a low brick
wall and lattice with arch openings. A paved driveway leads from Flower Street towards the east, terminating at a detached
garage that is clad in smooth stucco and has a hipped roof and minimal overhanging eaves. Landscaping includes a front
lawn with several tall palm trees and low shrubs.

The Hallicy House is significant as a representative example of a Minimal Traditional house, typical of the period just before
World War 11 and the post-war popularity of the ranch style. It was built in 1938 by Santa Ana builder J.R. Sandstrom. Mr.

*Required Information
Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as
Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The civic and commercial core of the community was centered around the intersection of
Main and Fourth Streets. Stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad and incorporation as a city in 1886, and selection
as the seat of the newly created County of Orange in 1869, the city grew outwards, with residential neighborhoods
developing to the north, south, and east of the city center. Agricultural uses predominated in the outlying areas, with
cultivated fields and orchards dotted with widely scattered farmhouses.
The Hallicy House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West
Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of oranges, avocados, and walnuts and
widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981),
credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls,
New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). "Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land.
And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana" (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). The parcel
chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. "When built in the 1920s, the
Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each" (Orange County
Register, September 15, 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and
1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival.
The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa
Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War 11, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the
neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue.
In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral
Park. An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa
Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell's own large, Colonial
Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In the early post World War It years, Floral Park continued its development as
numerous, smaller, single-family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style. In
the 1950s, low, horizontal Ranch Style houses completed the growth of Floral Park. Today (2022) Floral Park maintains its
identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens.
The Hallicy House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an example of
the Minimal Traditional style in Santa Ana. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Contributive" because it
"contributes to the overall character and history" of Floral Park and is a representative example of Minimal Traditional
architecture (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). Character -defining features of the Hallicy House include, but may not be
limited to: its massing and composition, consisting of a hip -roofed body and projecting wing; stucco exterior,, and multi -light
windows that meet at the comers, reminiscent of the Art Moderne style. Other Art Moderne-inspired features include the
entry, with its curved canopy, and porthole window.

Exhibit C
Exterior work shall be reviewed by the Historic Resources Commission and subject to the U.S.
Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings, as follows:
1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property
which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its
environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose.
2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site
and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any
historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when
possible.
3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own
time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier
appearance shall be discouraged.
4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the
history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment.
These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this
significance shall be recognized and respected.
5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which
characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity.
6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced,
whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material
should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture,
and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features
should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic,
physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the
availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or
structures.
7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means
possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic
building materials shall not be undertaken.
8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological
resources affected by, or adjacent to any project.
9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not
be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant
historical, architectural or cultural material, an such design is compatible with

size, scale, color, material and character of the property, neighborhood, or
environment.
10. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be done in such
a manner that if such additions or alterations need to be removed in the future, the
essential form and integrity of the structure would be unimpaired.
