Cypress Avenue) RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt a resolution approving a Certificate of Appropriateness for Historic Exterior Modification Application No. 2024-02 as conditioned. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Lucas Gage (property owner and applicant), is requesting approval of Historic Exterior Modification Application (HEMA) No. 2024-02 for the property addressed as 222 S. Cypress Avenue. Specifically, the request is to allow exterior modifications consisting of restoring all existing vinyl windows to wood windows, consistent with the property’s historical design; legalizing an unpermitted rear porch enclosure; and replacing the non-historic metal handrail at the rear porch with a new wood railing, consistent with existing wood railings elsewhere on the house. As part of the window restoration, existing window trim for all historical windows would be modified as needed to match original window trim dimensions and materials. Additionally, three non-original window openings are proposed to remain; however, the windows will be changed from vinyl to wood. The property is known as the Dinsmore House and is listed in the Santa Ana Register of Historic Properties (Register) in the Category Key. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located at the northwest corner of Cypress Avenue and Pine Street in the Pacific Park neighborhood. The General Plan land use designation for the site is Urban Neighborhood (UN-20), and the property is zoned Multi-Family Residential (R3). The site is currently developed with two freestanding dwellings (115-117 E. Pine Street and 222 S. Cypress Avenue) on a single 7,400-quare-foot lot. The oldest portion of the development (222 S. Cypress Avenue) is a circa-1890 Queen Anne- and Greek Revival-style residence, known historically as the Dinsmore House. Modifications proposed under the current project would be limited to this building. The Dinsmore House shares its parcel with a single-story cottage (115-117 E. Pine Street), which was         HEMA No. 2024-02 – The Dinsmore House (222 S. Cypress Avenue) November 7, 2024 Page 2 4 6 3 5 developed on what is now the west end of the parcel circa 1914. The single-story cottage is not identified as a contributing element of the Dismore House, is not listed in the Register separately, and is not proposed for modification as part of the current project. Historic Property Description The Dinsmore House is a two-story, “L”-shaped farmhouse influenced by the Queen Anne and Greek Revival styles. Its cross-gabled massing is derived from the Queen Anne tradition while its front-gabled, nearly symmetrical east façade suggests the Greek Revival. Beneath shallow boxed eaves, narrow shiplap siding trimmed with corner boards sheathes the exterior. Windows are generally non-original vinyl sashes with plain surrounds, arranged singly or in pairs. In many cases, the surrounds appear to be historic. A small rectangular slatted vent is centered beneath each gabled peak. The attached porch nearly spans the façade and is echoed in a smaller scale by a secondary porch on the south elevation. Square posts support a projecting hipped porch roof, which is embellished by a molded cornice and vertical slat frieze. A plain balustrade encloses the porch space. A large fixed window with a transom is located south of the front door. Extending to the west on the south elevation, the one-story rear wing with a gabled roof is typical of houses from this period. A red brick chimney appears on the west slope of the side gable. The house appears substantially intact, excepting the general replacement of historical wood-sash windows with vinyl replacements, installation of an aluminum sliding window in an enclosed second floor window opening above the main entrance, the apparently non-original concrete steps and foundation (which probably date to the 1940s), the enclosure of the one-story rear porch areas, and the metal fence surrounding the property. Character-defining features of the of the Dinsmore House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: shiplap wood exterior wall cladding; roof configuration; massing; original windows and doors where extant; and architectural details such as porch roof trim, and window surrounds (See Exhibit 4, Executive Summary and Exhibit 5, Historic Description). Project Description As part of the overall scope of work, the applicant proposes to restore all nineteen existing vinyl windows to wood windows at both sixteen historic and three non-historic window openings; modify window trim as needed to match original window trim dimensions and materials; and legalize the unpermitted rear porch enclosure. Replacement windows to be installed as part of the project would generally be wood, one-over-one hung sashes, with decorative “horns” or lugs” on the bottoms of the upper sashes (See Exhibit 6, Architectural Plans, page D-1); however, at specific locations there would be two wood fixed and four wood awning windows installed. Additional proposed work would include the renovation and or replacement of weathered or otherwise damaged fascia, siding, and trim and replacement of an existing back porch handrail with a new wood handrail         HEMA No. 2024-02 – The Dinsmore House (222 S. Cypress Avenue) November 7, 2024 Page 3 4 6 3 5 consistent in design with historical character of the house. Selection of the new handrail and other replacement materials would be subject to Planning Division staff approval. Under a separate project, a horizontally sliding second-story window located above the primary entrance will be restored to a wood-sash window fitting the historical dimensions of the window opening at that location. Complete restoration of this particular window (i.e., original size, operation, etc.) is infeasible at this time, due to the current floor plan configuration along the second floor. Specifically, the window serves as ventilation to Bath 2, as shown on the architectural plans (Exhibit 6). Complete restoration would require a complete floor plan redesign, which would be cost prohibitive to the property owner at this time. Analysis of the Issues Secretary of the Interior’s Standards The proposed project, as conditioned, will follow the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards (“SOIS”) for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring, & Reconstructing Historic Buildings (Kay D. Weeks and Anne E. Grimmer, revised 2017). The proposed exterior modifications, as conditioned, would be considered a rehabilitation project and as such be evaluated against ten criteria. Staff has reviewed the proposed modifications in comparison to the SOIS. The following is a review of the findings as they pertain to the applicable criteria: 1. A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal changes to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 1. because it will maintain the property’s historical use as a residence and will involve, at most, only a minimal loss of historic fabric and no loss of character-defining historic features. The project principally involves the removal of non-historical vinyl-sash windows and their replacement with wood-sash windows consistent with the historical design and materials of the building. Project work, such as the modification of wood window surrounds to accommodate the new windows and repair and restoration of trim, siding, and fascia, may result in limited changes to or loss of distinctive materials; however, such work is intended to remove historical materials minimally and as a last resort and would introduce new materials matched to the house’s historic fabric in cases when replacements are necessary. The proposed metal back porch handrail replacement involves the removal of non-historic materials that are not characteristic of the house’s historical significance. The project does not propose changes to any spaces or spatial relationships characteristic of the property’s historical significance.         HEMA No. 2024-02 – The Dinsmore House (222 S. Cypress Avenue) November 7, 2024 Page 4 4 6 3 5 2. The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved. The removal of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a property shall be avoided. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 2. Project elements are designed generally to restore the historic character of the subject property. That goal will be achieved chiefly through the restoration of existing vinyl windows with replacements consistent with the house’s historic Queen Anne- and Greek Revival-style character. Installation of new windows may involve a negligible loss of historic fabric due the necessary modifications of some surrounds and would serve the more pressing object of removing and replacing the existing incompatible vinyl windows. Additional work to repair and replace damaged trim, siding, and fascia may require additional removal of characteristic historic materials, but would replace damaged materials in-kind and only as a last resort, when more conservative repair options are not available. 3. Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken. The project complies with Standard No. 3. because he proposed changes will not create a false sense of historical development. The project would restore nearly all the house’s windows at 16 historic and three non-historic window openings. National Park Service guidance recommends that, “the replacement windows may be an accurate restoration using historical, pictorial, and physical documentation; or be a new design that is compatible with the window openings and the historic character of the building.” Definitive documentation of the original designs of the windows of the Dinsmore House is not available. In in the absence of definitive documentation of the original design, the project proposes simple single-light one- over-one wood sashes, which would be consistent with the relatively modest character of the building and the conventions of the house’s Queen Anne and Greek Revival influences. The new windows would be double-hung, fixed, and awning, depending on the historical operability at each location. As proposed, the replacement of the back porch handrail would remove a non- historic metal feature of incompatible design and replace it with a new handrail whose wood material and overall design and appearance would be based on the physical evidence embodied in the existing historic hand rails located at the front of the house and therefore would be consistent with the historical development of the house. 4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved.         HEMA No. 2024-02 – The Dinsmore House (222 S. Cypress Avenue) November 7, 2024 Page 5 4 6 3 5 Standard 4 does not apply, as none of the any non-original features proposed for removal have attained significance in their own right. 5. Distinctive features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property shall be preserved. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize the property will be preserved. Modifications to the historic window surrounds and repairs and replacement of historic trim, siding, and fascia would generally involve the loss of only minimal amounts of historic fabric and, where work would require replacement, would be completed in-kind with materials consistent with the house’s historic character. Additional work, such as the replacement of the non-historic vinyl windows and rear handrail, would involve the removal and replacement of features of relatively recent construction that are not examples of distinctive features, finishes, or construction techniques, or of craftsmanship that characterizes the property. 6. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. The project complies with Standard No. 6. The project would repair and/or replace deteriorated fascia, trim, siding, and other exterior features, as necessary. The repair and retention of such features would be the first option; however, where repair is not feasible, replacement materials would be carefully matched to existing historical counterparts still present on the building, and would therefore be selected based on physical evidence, in compliance with this Standard. 7. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. Standard 7 does not apply, as the project will not involve chemical or physical treatments on the building and will be in full compliance with Standard No. 7. 8. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken.         HEMA No. 2024-02 – The Dinsmore House (222 S. Cypress Avenue) November 7, 2024 Page 6 4 6 3 5 Standard 8 does not apply, as there are no known archeological resources on-site, and the work will not require grading or excavation that may uncover any archaeological resources. 9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 9. As discussed above, while the project would alter or remove some character-defining features and historic materials, the work is proposed to make as few alterations to the historic fabric, such as siding, trim, fascia, and window surrounds to the extent necessary to restore/replace the existing vinyl windows and repair damaged and weathered features. The proposed windows, which are principally one-over-one hung wood- sash windows featuring “horns” or “lugs” are compatible in style and materials with a residence with Queen Anne- and Greek Revival-style architectural features, and will be fitted into existing openings so as to match proposed windows to the historical window dimensions to the extent those dimensions are known. While there is not sufficient information to visually distinguish the proposed windows from their no-longer-extant historic counterparts, that the new windows would replace several stylistically inappropriate existing vinyl sashes would help substantially restore the historic character of the property to be in compliance with the overall objectives of this Standard. The building addition proposed for legalization also conforms generally to Standard No. 9. It is generally consistent with the overall design and materials of the building in that it is characterized by horizontal-wood-plank siding and simple wood door and window surrounds, similar to elements found throughout the residence. In addition, the unpermitted addition is also differentiated to the original construction of the residence, which is accomplished principally through its pent roof (a roof form not found elsewhere on the building). The pent-roof form, in combination with the addition’s relatively small footprint, also helps to subordinate it to the historic building. The roofline emerges, and descends, from just below the north-façade eave of the one-story at the rear of the building, giving the addition a lower vertical profile than any other mass making up the building. As such, the addition is subordinate not only to the larger one-story gabled mass to which it is directly appended, but also to the two-story building overall. Finally, consistent with National Park Service Guidance, the addition was erected on a less-visible elevation the building that faces the property’s interior and the private property directly to the north (Weeks and Grimmer 2017). That the addition is generally obscured from public view helps to lessen its visual impact on the historical integrity of the building.         HEMA No. 2024-02 – The Dinsmore House (222 S. Cypress Avenue) November 7, 2024 Page 7 4 6 3 5 10.New additions and adjacent or related new construction will be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired. The project, as conditioned, complies with Standard No. 10. The addition proposed for legalization could be removed without impairing essential form and integrity of the historic property and its surroundings. Visual observation and background research indicates the addition was made to the building at what was then the north façade of the rear porch. Although available documentation may not reveal the precise design of the building at this location, the original plane and cladding materials of the wall at this location are known, and the could be restored to something approximating its original appearance with the use of cladding similar to that on adjacent areas of the exterior. In addition, even if the future restoration of the wall may diverge somewhat from the building’s original design at this location (for example, due to insufficient knowledge about the placement of any windows formerly at this location), restoring the wall to its original plane would sufficiently respect and restore the historical form and appearance of the building. Moreover, the addition is at a location that is not highly visible, such that changes to the building or site resulting from the removal of the addition would be inconspicuous from any public vantage point. Conclusion Staff has determined that the project, as conditioned, complies with The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Specifically, the analysis indicates that the proposed replacement of vinyl windows with historically appropriate wood sashes, replacement of the metal rear handrail with a wood feature of a complementary architectural character, and limited and repair and replacement of the deteriorated or damaged features would be compatible and consistent with the historic architectural elements that reflect the property’s original Queen Anne- and Greek Revival-style architecture, while retaining or replacing in- kind all existing character-defining features. Further, all replacement features would meet current building code. Finally, the rear addition proposed for legalization is generally consistent, yet differentiated from and subordinate to, the Dinsmore House’s historical design and construction and could be reversed at a future date with no appreciable impact on the essential form and integrity of the residence. The role of the Historic Resources Commission is to issue a Certificate of Appropriateness upon finding that the proposed modifications do not substantially change the character and integrity of the historic properties per Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30-6 and meet the Secretary of Interior’s Standards per CEQA and the City’s Certified Local Government agreement with the State of California. Staff finds that the historic exterior modification application meets the necessary criteria to be awarded a Certificate of Appropriateness and should be approved. It is also recommended that staff approve the exact materials and finishes to be used prior to installation to ensure quality and compatibility.         HEMA No. 2024-02 – The Dinsmore House (222 S.

The Historic Resources Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A.Lucas Gage (property owner and applicant) is requesting approval of Historic Exterior Modification Application No. 2024-02 to allow exterior modifications to the property at 222 South Cypress Avenue, historically known as the Dinsmore House. B.The legal owners of the property are Lucas James Gage, Jeffrey A. Gage, and Donna L. Gage. C.The Dinsmore House is listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historic Properties (Register) in the Category Key. D.The Dinsmore House was originally built circa 1890, in the Queen Anne and Greek Revival styles. It is a two-story, single-family residence, located on a moderately sized parcel, accompanied by a modest one-story duplex building, which does not contribute to the Dinsmore House’s historical significance. Character-defining features of the Dinsmore House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: shiplap wood exterior wall cladding; roof configuration; massing; original windows and doors where extant; and architectural details such as porch roof trim and window surrounds. E.Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30-6, no exterior physical modifications, other than those identified by the Historic Resources Commission for administrative approval by city staff, shall be permitted with respect to a historic structure until the Historic Resources Commission approves such request at a duly noticed public hearing and issues a certificate of appropriateness. The Historic Resources Commission shall issue the certificate of appropriateness upon finding that the proposed modification(s) does not substantially change the character and integrity of the historic property. F.The applicant proposes to restore sixteen (16) existing vinyl windows and replace three (3) existing vinyl windows with wood-sash windows of double-         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 2 of 10 hung, awning, and fixed configurations; minimally modify historic wood window frames to accommodate the installation of the windows; remove non-historic metal handrail on rear porch (west façade) and replace it with a new wood handrail similar to existing historic handrails; and legalize the rear porch enclosure. As part of the work, deteriorated and damaged siding, trim, window surrounds, and other exterior elements, will be repaired or replaced as necessary; any replacements will be made in -kind to match the historical design and materials. G. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30 -6, the Historic Resources Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on November 7, 2024, for the request for exterior modifications to the Dinsmore House. H. 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 following Secretary of Interior’s Standards are applicable: i. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 1. because it will maintain the property’s historical use as a residence and will involve, at most, only a minimal loss of historic fabric and no loss of character defining historic features. The project principally involves the removal of non - historical vinyl-sash windows and their replacement with wood-sash windows consistent with the historical design and materials of the building. Project work, such as the modification of wood window surrounds to accommodate the new windows and repair and restoration of trim, siding, and fascia, may result in limited changes to or loss of distinctive materials; however, such work is intended to remove historical materials minimally and as a last resort and would introduce new materials matched to the house’s historic fabric in cases when replacements are necessary. The proposed metal back porch handrail replacement involves the removal of non - historic materials that are not characteristic of the house’s historical significance. The project does not propose changes to any spaces or spatial relationships characteristic of the property’s historical significance. ii. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 2. Project elements are designed generally to restore the historic character of the subject property. That goal will be achieved chiefly through the restoration of existing vinyl windows with replacements consistent with the house’s historic Queen Anne- and Greek Revival-style character. Installation of new windows may involve a negligible loss of historic fabric due the necessary modifications of some surrounds and would serve the more pressing object of removing and replacing the existing incompatible vinyl windows. Additional work to repair         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 3 of 10 and replace damaged trim, siding, and fascia may require additional removal of characteristic historic materials, but would replace damaged materials in-kind and only as a last resort, when more conservative repair options are not available. iii. The project complies with Standard No. 3. The project complies with Standard No. 3. because he proposed changes will not create a false sense of historical development. The project would restore 16 windows (in addition to replacing sashes in three existing non-historic window openings), the historical designs of which could not be confirmed definitively through a review of available documentation. National Park Service guidance recommends that, “the replacement windows may be an accurate restoration using historical, pictorial, and physical documentation; or be a new design that is compatible with the window openings and the historic character of the building.” Even in the absence of relevant documentation, it can be safely assumed, based on the age and architectural style of the Dinsmore House, the building’s windows originally included wood sashes in fixed and double- hung configurations. The operability of each specific window would be retained with each replacement. Further, in the absence of definitive documentation, the project proposes simple single-light fixed and one-over-one hung sashes, which would be consistent with the relatively modest character of the building. As proposed, the replacement of the back porch handrail would remove a non-historic metal feature of incompatible design and replace it with a new handrail whose wood material and overall design and appearance would be based on the existing historic hand rails located at the front of the house and would therefore be consistent with the hi storical development of the house. iv. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize the property will be preserved. Modifications to the historic window surrounds and repairs and replacement of historic trim, siding, and fascia would generally involve the loss of only minimal amounts of historic fabric and, where work would require replacement, would be completed in-kind with materials consistent with the house’s historic character.         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 4 of 10 Additional work, such as the replacement of the non-historic vinyl windows and rear handrail, would involve the removal and replacement of features of relatively recent construction that are not examples of distinctive features, finishes, or construction techniques, or of craftsmanship that characterizes the property. v. The project complies with Standard No. 6. The project would repair and/or replace deteriorated fascia, trim, siding, and other exterior features, as necessary. The repair and retention of such features would be the first option; however, where repair is not feasible, replacement materials would be carefully matched to existing historical counterparts still present on the building, and would therefore be selected based on physical evidence, in compliance with this Standard. vi. The project complies with Standard No. 9. As discussed above, while the project would alter or remove some character-defining features and historic materials, the work is proposed to make as few alterations to the historic fabric, such as siding, trim, fascia, and window surrounds to the extent necessary to restore/replace the existing vinyl windows and repair damaged and weathered features. The proposed windows, which are principally one-over-one hung wood-sash windows featuring “horns” or “lugs” are compatible in style and materials with a residence with Queen Anne- and Greek Revival-style architectural features, and will be fitted into existing openings so as to match proposed windows to the historical window dimensions to the extent those dimensions are known.

Identifying features include the front-facing gable roof; ornate decoration of wood or metal along the eave and in the gable end; avoidance of flat wall surfaces through the use of applied ornamentation of wood or metal; and classical columns or pilasters. Multi-storied residential and commercial examples often incorporated bay windows, sometimes topped with towers. The style borrowed heavily from late Medieval models, with the addition of other regional interpretations. Some of the most well-developed examples can be found in California and in the southern states (McAlester, 263-268). Although classical architecture as a whole provided precedents for most American designers in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, a specifically Greek Revival was initiated in 1818 with a competition to design the Second Bank of the United States in Philadelphia (Whiffen, 40). Over the next approximately fifty years, the style was utilized for a variety of building types, including residences. It can be recognized by a symmetrical arrangement of building elements; the presence of Greek orders; rectangular building plans; gabled or hipped roofs of low pitch; and, often, an unmistakable reference to Greek temple design through incorporation of colonnades and front-gabled facades. In the Greek Revival, architectural elaboration is focused on cornice lines, doorways, columns and piers, and windows (McAlester, 178-184). The Greek Revival is most commonly found in the eastern half of the continental United States; examples in the West are more rare and usually date to the second half of the nineteenth century. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Dinsmore House appears to qualify for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Property under Criterion 1 as an intact and representative example of a farmhouse influenced by the Queen Anne (Late Victorian) and Greek Revival styles of the late nineteenth century. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Key” for its “distinctive architectural style and quality” as a representative example of a farmhouse with Queen Anne (Late Victorian) and Greek Revival characteristics (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).         EXPLANATION OF CODES: x National Register Criteria for Evaluation: (From Appendix 7 of Instructions for Recording Historical Resources, Office of Historic Preservation) C: that embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction. x National Register Status Code: (From Appendix 2 of Instructions for Recording Historical Resources, Office of Historic Preservation) 5S1: Not eligible for the National Register but of local interest because the resource is eligible for listing under an existing local ordinance.         State of California  The Resources Agency Primary #______________________________________________ DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION HRI #__________________________________________________ PRIMARY RECORD Trinomial______________________________________________ NRHP Status Code_____________________________________ Other Listings_____________________________________________________________________ Review Code________ Reviewer________________________ Date_______________ Page _1_ of _4_ Resource name(s) or number (assigned by recorder) Dinsmore House P1.

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries.) Located on the northwest corner of South Cypress Avenue and East Pine Street, this is a two-story, “L”-shaped farmhouse influenced by the Queen Anne and Greek Revival styles. Its cross-gabled massing is derived from the Queen Anne tradition while its front-gabled, nearly symmetrical east façade suggests the Greek Revival. Beneath shallow boxed eaves, narrow shiplap siding trimmed with corner boards sheathes the exterior. Windows are narrow, wood-framed, double-hung sash with plain surrounds, arranged singly or in pairs. A small rectangular slatted vent is centered beneath each gabled peak. The attached porch nearly spans the façade and is echoed in a smaller scale by a secondary porch on the south elevation. Square posts support a projecting hipped porch roof, which is embellished by a molded cornice and vertical slat frieze. A plain balustrade encloses the porch space. A large fixed window with a transom is located south of the partially glazed front door. Extending to the west on the south elevation, a one-story rear wing with a gabled roof is typical of houses from this period. A red brick chimney appears on the west slope of the side gable. Except for an enclosed second floor window above the main entrance, the apparently non-original concrete steps and foundation (which probably date to 1944), and the metal fence surrounding the property, the house appears to be substantially intact. *P3b.

Also address integrity) Constructed circa 1899, the Dinsmore House is architecturally significant as a representative example of an early farmhouse with Queen Anne (Late Victorian) and Greek Revival characteristics. It is also notable as one of the surviving nineteenth century houses in the Eastside neighborhood. Jesse and Amelia Dinsmore came to Santa Ana in 1899 for health reasons, according to Pleasants’ 1931 biography of the family. Although the 1901 Santa Ana Directory indicates that the Dinsmores were retired, Pleasants states that Jesse Dinsmore initially planted citrus and walnut trees on a three-acre tract. He gradually added to his land until he owned 75 acres, 40 of which he divided between his two daughters in 1920. Amelia Dinsmore, a schoolteacher for a time, was actively involved in civic and philanthropic affairs in Santa Ana. (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) B11.

Significance (continued): Located in the southeast section of the City of Santa Ana, the Eastside neighborhood is bounded by First Street on the north, McFadden Avenue on the south, Standard Avenue on the east and Main Street on the west. Situated south of the tract purchased by William Spurgeon in 1869 and recorded as original town of Santa Ana in 1870, the neighborhood’s beginnings date to the same period. In 1868, Nelson O. Stafford and Columbus Tustin, both from Petaluma, California, purchased 1359 acres of the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana south of what would become First Street. The following year, the two men split the property, with Mr. Tustin obtaining 703 acres of the eastern portion upon which he founded the town of Tustin in 1870. Stafford’s western acreage, thereafter called the Stafford Tract, lay south of First Street, east of Main Street, and north of McFadden Street, the area now known as Eastside. After selling a portion of this property, Nelson Stafford settled on his land in 1873, building a large house for his young wife and their children. Stafford died in 1878, and his widow, Amanda, opened the house to boarders, one of whom was Robert James Blee, formerly of Pennsylvania. In 1880, Blee bought 36 acres of land at the corner of First and Main Streets from Mrs. Stafford, including the Stafford residence. Blee married Amanda Stafford in 1882. Monroe David Halladay was another pioneer who made a significant contribution to the development of the Eastside neighborhood. Halladay came from Michigan to Santa Ana in 1876 for health reasons and purchased 20 acres from Nelson Stafford. Halladay built his first home in 1877 on East First Street, surveying and selling a few lots of his property but never platting it. In 1887, Chestnut, Pine, and Walnut Streets were laid out on his land; then, in 1888, Halladay sold ten acres of the property. On his remaining ten acres he grew raisins, walnuts, and apples. Also in 1888, Halladay built and occupied the magnificent Stick/Eastlake (Late Victorian) house that still stands on the southwest corner of East Chestnut and Halladay Streets. An 1887 map of Santa Ana, drawn a year after Santa Ana’s incorporation as a city, documents the early growth of the neighborhood, with house-sized lots lining both sides of Cypress Street and the west side of Orange Avenue between First and Chestnut Streets as well Walnut, Pine, and Chestnut Streets between Maple and Hickory Streets. The remainder of the Eastside area was divided into large parcels owned by Blee, Halladay, his elder brother, banker Daniel Halladay, and others. Maps drawn in 1898 and 1913 reveal that the neighborhood had expanded to south, with additional subdivisions along Cypress and Orange platted during this period. As a result of this pattern of development, the northwestern section of the neighborhood was improved with homes in the Victorian era Queen Anne and Eastlake styles. Colonial Revival turn-of- the-century residences and later Craftsman bungalows followed along in south west portion of the neighborhood. The southeastern section of the neighborhood was the last portion to be subdivided and was initially developed in the years between the World Wars, with the Craftsman, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, and Spanish Colonial Revival styles predominating. Post World War II construction consumed the remaining unimproved land. Despite unsympathetic infill, dating primarily to the last quarter of the twentieth century, and inappropriate alterations, the Eastside neighborhood retains numerous intact examples of residences from the significant period of its development, which occurred between 1873, when Stafford built his house (no longer extant), and 1931, when construction tapered off as a result of the Great Depression. The Dinsmore House appears to qualify for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Property under Criterion 1 as an intact and representative example of a farmhouse influenced by the Queen Anne (Late Victorian) and Greek Revival styles of the late nineteenth century. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Key” for its distinctive architectural style and quality. The building is essentially a farmhouse with minimal ornamentation, a plain projecting porch, and the rear one- story wing often associated with farmhouses from this period. Queen Anne features include the cross-gabled roof, “L”-plan, narrow windows, and decorative porch roof trim while the Greek Revival influence is revealed in the overall simplicity and façade treatment. All original exterior features of the Dinsmore House are considered to be character defining and should be preserved, including, but may not be limited to: sheathing (shiplap); roof configuration; massing; original windows and doors where extant; and architectural details such as porch roof trim.         State of California  The Resources Agency Primary # _____________________________________________ DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION HRI # ________________________________________________ CONTINUATION SHEET Trinomial _____________________________________________ Page 4_ of 4_ Resource Name or # (Assigned by recorder) Dinsmore House *Recorded by Leslie J.

Young House (2208 North Flower Street) RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt a resolution approving a Certificate of Appropriateness for Historic Exterior Modification Application No. 2024-04 as conditioned. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Vy Lam Han and Stephanie Tuhan Phan (property owners and applicants), are requesting approval of Historic Exterior Modification Application (HEMA) No. 2024-04 for the residential property addressed as 2208 North Flower Street, which is a contributor to the National Register-listed Floral Park Historic District and known as the C.J. Young House. The property is not listed individually on the Santa Ana Register of Historic Properties, or any other historic register. However, the Floral Park Historic District was listed on the Natonal Register on February 10, 2023, and, as such, 2208 North Flower Street meets the definition of “historic property” pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) Section 30-1.5. Specifically, Section 30-1.5 states that a property “listed on the federal, state or local register of historical properties” qualifies as a “historic property” for the purposes of SAMC Chapter 30. Furthermore, pursuant to Section 30-6, exterior modifications to a historic property are subject to the approval of the Historic Resources Commission (HRC), except types of modifications the HRC has identified as subject only to administrative review. HRC guidance specifies that major modifications to a historic property are subject to commission review and minor modifications to administrative review. The proposed project consists of major modifications, including the removal and replacement of windows, and is therefore subject to HRC approval. Specifically, the request is to allow the interior remodel of single-family residence to include demolition of partition walls and floor plan reconfiguration for kitchen, dining room, family room, primary bedroom and laundry room. Exterior work along the primary (east) elevation includes removal of an existing vinyl sliding window for a new steel casement tripartite window and the like-for-like replacement of three metal casement windows, while the north elevation includes the removal of a horizontal sliding door for two new metal         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 2 4 6 4 1 windows and a like-for-like replacement of two existing wood horizontal windows. The south elevation includes legalizing the removal of a previously existing metal horizontal sliding window, the removal of existing wood door and metal screen, and the removal of a wood horizontal window and French doors for two metal casement windows. The west elevation includes the removal three existing vinyl windows for glazed metal sliding doors. Lastly, the work would also include new brick within the porch area to level the existing brick floor, the removal of an existing window along the north elevation of the detached garage, and legalizing previously unpermitted changes to the detached garage, including removal of sliding door along north and west elevation. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located on the west side of North Flower Street, between Santa Clara Avenue and 19th Street, in the Foral Park National Register Historic District. The General Plan land use designation for the site is Low Density Residential (LR-7), and the property is zoned single-family residential (R-1). The site is currently developed with a single-family residence and detached garage on a 9,500-square-foot residential lot. The single-story residence and garage were constructed in 1954, with the residence exhibiting elements of the Minimal Traditional and Ranch styles of architecture. Alterations to the residence include the replacement of select windows on the primary (east) and west facades with vinyl sashes and the filling in of a doorway on the north elevation. The property is a contributor to the National Register-listed Floral Park Historic District, which is also listed on the California Register of Historical Resources. However, the property is not individually listed in the National Register, California Register, or Santa Ana Register. Historic Property Description The C.J. Young House consists of a single-story residence and detached garage. Constructed with elements of the Minimal Traditional and Ranch styles, the residence has an L-plan, concrete foundation, and cross-gabled roof with minimal overhangs, which are winged at some gable-end locations. Cladding prominently features board-and-batten siding on the primary elevation and wrapping around adjacent corners. Elsewhere exterior surfaces are stuccoed or display horizontal plank siding, as at the upper reaches of some gable ends. The main entrance is located on front porch and consists of a wood-panel door with fanlight glazing accompanied by a rectangular sidelight. Features of the porch, which spans approximately two thirds of the primary façade, include bi-level brick flooring and a broad overhang with exposed rafters with rounded tails. Wood posts with simple bracing support the overhang. Indicative of the Ranch style of architecture, windows show a variety of materials and configurations; historic windows include multi-pane steel casement; paired, three-over-three sliding wood; and two paired 15-light wood sliding sashes, while there are also several non-original vinyl and metal sashes. The rear of the house is characterized by a deeply recessed rear patio, accessible by French doors and         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 3 4 6 4 1 sheltered by a broad roof overhang. Alterations to the residence are limited, but include the replacement of a steel-casement primary-façade window and three rear and side windows with incompatible vinyl and metal sashes. Visual observation suggests the sliding glass door on the north elevation is not original to the house. Located just northeast of the residence is the detached garage, which shares some of the design features of the residence, including a gabled roof, board-and-batten and stucco siding. It is accessed on the east by a non-original glazed metal roll-up garage door and on the north by a non-original wood-panel door. There is one window on the building, a non-original sliding vinyl sash adjacent to the wood-panel door. Character-defining features of the C.J. Young House that should be preserved include its L-Plan, cross-gabled roof with winged gable ends, board-and-batten and stucco exterior wall cladding, sidelight adjacent to the front door, porch with brick floor and porch supports with curved bracing, historic steel casement and wood sliding multi-light windows. Project Description The project applicants are proposing a series of modifications to the interior floorplan of the residence and several windows and doors on the exteriors of the property’s residence and detached garage. The project is mainly intended to adapt the roughly fifty-year-old residence’s interior organization to better serve the needs of today’s family. The reorganization of the interior space will require the replacement of several windows and on the rear and side elevations and alteration of some openings to accommodate the reconfigured floorplan. Window replacements will also address the deterioration of two historic windows on a side façade and restore the focal window on the primary façade to its original appearance and specifications. Finally, some work proposed for the detached garage would legalize unpermitted alterations. Overall, the applicant proposes to remodel the single-family residence to include demolition of partition walls and floor plan reconfiguration for kitchen, dining room, family room, primary bedroom and laundry room. Exterior work includes removal of existing vinyl sliding window for a new steel casement tripartite window along the primary elevation, removal of a horizontal sliding door for two new metal windows and a like-for-like replacement of two existing wood horizontal windows along the north elevation, removal of a wood horizontal window and swing doors for two metal casement windows along the south elevation, and removal one existing vinyl-sash window and two paired 15-light wood-sash windows along the west elevation to accommodate installation of a new window and a metal sliding door. The work would also include new brick within the porch area to level the existing brick floor, the removal of an existing window along the north elevation of the detached garage, and legalizing previously unpermitted changes to the detached garage, including removal of sliding door along north and west elevation. Along the north elevation, the property owner originally proposed to replace two existing horizontal wood windows and replace them with new metal casement windows. However,         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 4 4 6 4 1 after further discussion with the Planning Division staff, the property owners will instead replace these windows with like-for-like wood windows, given the windows deteriorating conditions. A condition of approval is recommended, requiring that the two subject windows remain as wood, and that they are replaced to the satisfaction of the Planning and Building Agency. Exterior work on the residence is described in more detail below. Alterations to the primary east façade would include: •Restoration of focal window by removing non-historic existing vinyl-sash window (Window E1 on Page A05 of Exhibit 4, Architectural Plans) and replacement with a tripartite steel casement window modeled (Window N1 on Page A08 and A09) on the historic window recently replaced at the same location; •Replacement of existing glazed front door (Door F1) with a new wood-panel door (Door P1) within the same doorway; •Like-for-like replacement of three metal casement windows (Windows E2 and E4) with the same size, operation, and dimensions (Windows N6 and N7) •Leveling of the brick porch flooring with the addition of bricks similar to the existing brickwork. Alterations to the secondary south façade would include: •Removal of the existing non-historic door (Door F11) and window, filling of openings, and application of new stucco to match the existing stucco cladding at this location; •Removal of historic French doors (Door F10) facing the rear patio and installation of a new metal-sash casement window (Window N3) in an altered opening at the same location; •Removal of non-historic window (Window E7) facing the rear patio and installation of a new metal-sash casement window (Window N3) at the same location. Alterations to the secondary north façade would include: •Removal of a non-historic, secondary sliding-glass door (Door F8) and installation of two metal-sash casement windows (Window N2 and N3) in an altered opening at the same location; •Removal of an existing metal-sash window (Window E6) and replacement with new metal-sash casement windows (Windows N4). •Removal of two existing historic wood windows (Windows E5 and E6) and replacement with like-for-like wood horizontal windows. •Removal of two to three linear feet of board-and-batten siding and application of stucco fill to accommodate the replacement of the easternmost window on this façade. Alterations to the rear-facing west façade would include:         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 5 4 6 4 1 •Removal of non-historic vinyl window (Window E7) and replacement with metal- framed sliding glass door (Door P5) in an enlarged opening; •Removal of two paired 15-light wood-sash sliding windows (Windows E7), enlargement of openings at this location, and installation of a single metal French door and light assembly (Door P6). Analysis of the Issues Secretary of the Interior’s Standards The proposed project, as conditioned, will generally conform to the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards (“SOIS”) for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring, & Reconstructing Historic Buildings (Kay D. Weeks and Anne E. Grimmer, revised 2017). The proposed exterior modifications, as conditioned, are best evaluated under for the Secretary of the Interior’s Rehabilitation Standards. Staff has reviewed the proposed exterior modifications for compliance with the Rehabilitation Standards. The following summarizes Staff findings for each of the ten Standards: 1. A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal changes to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 1. The project does not propose to change the property’s historic and current use as a residence. Changes involving character-defining features would be limited mostly to the removal and replacement of historic windows and doors on the secondary and rear elevations, where public visibility is limited. Proposed alterations that would remove materials from the residence and garage center on the replacement of existing windows and doors, including some historic and all non-original features. Character-defining historic features proposed for removal include the like-for-like replacement of two wood horizontal windows and one metal casement window on the north-façade, the 15-light wood-sash window assemblies facing the rear patio from the west façade, and the wood French doors facing the patio from the south façade. Although these alterations would remove historic materials and features, this work would be confined to façades facing the enclosed side and back yards, which constitute private space with limited or no visibility from the right-of-way. Other proposed changes to the windows and doors would remove non-historic features on both the residence and garage, specifically vinyl windows, the non-historic front and secondary doors, and the existing metal roll-up garage door. The proposed window and door alterations would also involve the removal and/or addition of some existing stucco siding at several locations and two to three linear         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 6 4 6 4 1 feet of board-and-batten siding from the secondary south elevation of the residence; however, although the siding is character-defining of the property, it is not a distinctive material and will be replaced or added in-kind to conform with the current appearance of both buildings’ exteriors. Additional work involving the removal or alteration of historic features and materials is limited to the leveling of the brick floor of the front porch. This work, which is proposed to enhance the utility of what is now a bi-level floor, will be completed with the addition of new brickwork of an appearance similar to the existing flooring material to bring the lower portion of the floor to the same level as the upper. The work will not require the removal of or substantial changes to any adjacent exterior wall surface or porch roof support. Overall, the project satisfies Standard No. 1 in that it would maintain the property’s historical use as a residence, substantially limit the removal of historic materials and character-defining features to secondary facades that are minimally visible from the public right-of-way or are entirely outside public view, and replace any lost wall cladding and porch flooring materials in-kind. 2. The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved. The removal of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a property shall be avoided. As conditioned, the project generally complies with Standard No. 2. As discussed above in the analysis for Standard No. 1, the removal or significant alteration of historic materials and character-defining features includes the removal of one steel casement window and two sliding wood-sash windows on the south elevation, two paired 15-light wood window assemblies on the west elevation (facing the rear patio), one glazed wood set of French doors on the south elevation (also facing the patio), and stucco at select sites to accommodate alterations to both historic and non-historic doors and windows. In order to maintain the historic character of the house, replacements at these locations, consisting of both windows and doors, would be of metal fabrication modeled on the house’s existing multi-light steel casement windows. New window trim would be would also be modeled on and painted to match the existing trim. In some cases, non-original vinyl windows and other incompatible features would be changed out with replacements more closely matching the historical appearance of the house; such work includes the restoration of the primary-façade focal with a tripartite steel casement window nearly identical to the original at that location, in addition to the replacement of a north-elevation sliding glass door and a south-elevation vinyl window with multi-light sliding metal windows matching the trim, muntin dimensions, and color of metal windows elsewhere on the house.         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 7 4 6 4 1 All new siding and brick work will include the replacement of addition of materials of similar to the appearance of corresponding existing materials and, aside from the leveling of the porch floor, will occur on secondary façades, where the alterations will be at most minimally visible from the right-of-way. Although the project would result in the loss of character-defining windows and doors on the secondary façades, the project would generally satisfy Standard No. 2, by restoring the historic appearance of the primary façade with the installation of a historically appropriate metal casement window, removing non-conforming doors and windows entirely replacing them with new features complementary of the residence’s and garage’s historic appearance. The maintenance of the property’s historic character would also be served by limiting more pronounced alterations to historic features to the secondary and rear façades. 3. Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken. The project complies with Standard No. 3. The proposed changes will not create a false sense of historical development. New features proposed for addition to the residence and garage would consist primarily of doors and windows. To restore the east-façade steel casement window, the project architect examined recent imagery predating the replacement of the original window at that location to identify the original materials, dimensions, operation, and glazing pattern for the proposed window. Similarly, the metal window proposed for the north-elevation bathroom location matches the materials, glazing pattern, and trim of the existing historical window, but would be of a slightly reduced size. The other proposed window and door designs are also based on historic precedent, including general consistency with the materials and glazing patterns found on the subject property and, more broadly, with the varied window styles typical of Ranch-style homes. The proposed windows and glazed sliding doors would possess conservative, unembellished designs and metal fabrication that make them compatible with the historic character of the property, without introducing any conspicuous detailing. Thus, these new elements would to avoid the appearance of conjectural alterations and would not present a false sense of historical development. A similar approach was taken with the proposed garage door, which is understated enough to avoid a conjectural appearance but omits the period-inappropriate glazing of the existing garage door. Overall, the project avoids the addition of conjectural elements by modeling replacement features on documented features of the building or conservatively         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 8 4 6 4 1 modeling new features on the standards of the Ranch style and general characteristics of the property. Standard 3 is therefore satisfied. 4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved. Standard 4 does not apply, as the project will not remove any significant features that were added over time. 5. Distinctive features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property shall be preserved. As conditioned, the project is not subject to Standard No. 5. The property, an ordinary 1950s tract house and detached garage constructed of common, commercially produced materials, does not possess any distinctive features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship per se. For analysis of the project’s treatment of character-defining features and historic materials, please the discussion under Standards No. 1, 2, and 9. 6. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. Standard No. 6 does not apply because this project does not propose to repair or replace any deteriorated historic feature. 7. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. Standard 7 does not apply, as the project does not propose the use of any chemical or physical treatments on the building. 8. Archaeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken. Standard 8 does not apply, as there are no known archaeological resources on- site and the project does not propose any grading or excavation that would uncover any archaeological resource. 9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 9 4 6 4 1 historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment. The project generally conforms to Standard No. 9. Although the project does not propose any new additions or related new construction, as discussed above, it proposes several exterior alterations involving the removal and replacement of historic and non-historic materials, principally windows and doors. However, the loss of character-defining historic features would be compatible with the historic character of the property and confined to the rear and side of the residence, in areas with limited or no public visibility. In order to preserve the historic character of the property, all proposed windows and doors, except for the wood panel front door and two horizontal wood doors along the north elevation, would be of metal fabrication (with glazing in the doors) consistent with the residence’s existing historical steel casement windows, with window sashes and trim and door frames painted to match the colors of the existing historical windows. Where sufficient documentation of the house’s historical design exists, specifically the east-façade focal window and, historical glazing patterns would be reproduced or approximated in the proposed features. Outside these two window reproductions, the new features are not intended to strictly replicate historical features, but instead to be compatible with the property and echo the historical use of steel, multi-pane windows throughout much of the residence. However, as doors and windows of modern commercial production, they would be inherently distinguishable from the historical features of the residence in their finish and glazing. No element of the project would alter any character-defining spaces or spatial relationships. 10.New additions and adjacent or related new construction will be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired. Standard No. 10 does not apply to the project, because the project does not propose any new additions or related new construction. Conclusion Staff has determined that the project, as conditioned, complies generally with The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. In addition to interior remodeling, the project proposes to remove and/or replace several doors and windows throughout the exteriors of residence garage and level the front porch with new compatible brickwork. Some aspects of the proposed project diverge from the Standards, specifically, the removal and replacement of the historic 15-light windows and French doors at the rear of the residence         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 10 4 6 4 1 and wood and steel windows on the north façade. However, to compensate for this loss of historic fabric, the project has been designed thoughtfully to maintain and restore the historic integrity of the residence’s primary façade by retaining all existing historic windows on that façade, restoring the tripartite steel casement focal window (reversing an incompatible window change-out), and preserving the historic character of the porch with addition of new, yet compatible, brickwork and wood-panel front door. Additional alterations to the north and south facades, which are of limited or no visibility from the right-of-way, respect the historic character of the residence by removing a non-historic door and window on the south elevation and introducing stylistically compatible multi-light metal-sash windows to two locations on the north elevation. This ensures that all other proposed window and doors are consistent with the historic materials and character of the residence and with the Ranch style in general. Overall, despite some discrepancies with the Standards, the project maintains the integrity of the property such that its historic character will remain readily apparent from the public right-of-way, and the property would continue to be eligible as a contributor to the Floral Park Historic District. The role of the Historic Resources Commission is to issue a Certificate of Appropriateness upon finding that the proposed modifications do not substantially change the character and integrity of the historic properties per Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30-6, meet the Secretary of Interior’s Standards per CEQA and the City’s Certified Local Government agreement with the State of California. Staff finds that the historic exterior modification application meets the necessary criteria to be awarded a Certificate of Appropriateness and should be approved. It is also recommended that staff approve the exact materials and finishes to be used prior to installation to ensure quality and compatibility. Public Notification The project site was posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter and mailed notices were sent to all property owners within 500 feet of the project site. In addition, staff contacted the Floral Park Neighborhood Association to ensure they were aware of the project and public hearing. At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either written or electronic, had been received from any members of the public. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the recommended action is exempt from further review under Section 15331, Class 31, as this action is designed in a manner consistent with the Secretary of Interior’s Standards. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2024-85 will be filed for this project. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.         HEMA No. 2024-04 – The C.J. Young House (2208 N. Flower Street) November 7, 2024 Page 11 4 6 4 1 EXHIBIT(S) 1.

The Historic Resources Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Vy Lam Han and Stephanie Tuhan Phan (property owners and applicants) are requesting approval of Historic Exterior Modification Application No. 2024-04 to allow exterior modifications to the property at 2208 North Flower Street. B. The legal owners of the property Vy Lam Han, a single man and Stephanie Tuhan Phan, a single woman as joint tenants. C. The property at 2208 North Flower Street is a contributor to the Floral National Register Historic District, known as the C.J. Young House. The Floral Park National Register Historic District is also listed in the California Register of Historical Resources. Although the property is not listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historic Properties, it is listed on the National Register and therefore meets the definition of “historic property” specified in Santa Ana Municipal Code 30-1.5, which includes any property designated on the federal, state, or local registers. Because the property is a designated historic property, the project is subject to the requirements of Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30.6, specifically, that the proposed alteration are subject to Historic Resources Commission Review. D. The C.J. Young House was constructed in 1954, with the residence exhibiting elements of the Minimal Traditional and Ranch styles of architecture. Alterations to the residence include the replacement of select windows on the primary (east) and west facades with vinyl sashes and the filling in of a doorway on the south elevation. Character-defining features of C.J. Young House that should be preserved include its L-Plan, cross-gabled roof with winged gable ends, board-and-batten and stucco exterior wall cladding, sidelight adjacent to the front door, porch with brick floor and porch supports with curved bracing, historic steel casement and wood sliding multi-light windows.         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 2 of 13 E. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30-6, no exterior physical modifications, other than those identified by the Historic Resources Commission for administrative approval by city staff, shall be permitted with respect to a historic structure until the Historic Resources Commission approves such request at a duly noticed public hearing and issues a certificate of appropriateness. The Historic Resources Commission shall issue the certificate of appropriateness upon finding that the proposed modification(s) does not substantially change the character and integrity of the historic property. F. The project scope includes the remodel of the single-family residence to include demolition of partition walls and floor plan reconfiguration for kitchen, dining room, family room, primary bedroom and laundry room. Exterior work includes removal of existing vinyl sliding window for a new steel casement tripartite window along the primary elevation, removal of a horizontal sliding door for two new metal windows and a like-for-like replacement of two existing wood horizontal windows along the north elevation, removal of a wood horizontal window and swing doors for two metal casement windows along the south elevation, and removal one existing vinyl-sash window and two paired 15-light wood-sash windows along the west elevation to accommodate installation of a new window and a metal sliding door. The work would also include new brick within the porch area to level the existing brick floor, the removal of an existing window along the north elevation of the detached garage, and legalizing previously unpermitted changes to the detached garage, including remo val of sliding door along north and west elevation. Staff notes that along the north elevation, the property owner originally proposed to replace two existing horizontal wood windows and replace them with new metal casement windows. However, after further discussion with the Planning Division staff the property owners will instead replace these windows with like-for-like wood windows, given the windows deteriorating conditions. Planning staff has placed a condition of approval requiring that the two subject windows remain as wood, and that they are replaced to the satisfaction of the Planning and Building Agency (PBA). Exterior work on the residence is described in more detail below. Alterations to the primary east façade would include: • Restoration of focal window by removing non-historic existing vinyl- sash window (Window E1 on Page A05 of Exhibit 4, Architectural Plans) and replacement with a tripartite steel casement window modeled (Window N1 on Page A08 and A09) on the historic window recently replaced at the same location; • Replacement of existing glazed front door (Door F1) with a new wood-panel door (Door P1) within the same doorway;         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 3 of 13 • Like-for-like replacement of three metal casement windows (Windows E2 and E4) with the same size, operation, and dimensi ons (Windows N6 and N7) • Leveling of the brick porch flooring with the addition of bricks similar to the existing brickwork. Alterations to the secondary south façade would include: • Removal of the existing non-historic door (Door F11) and window, filling of openings, and application of new stucco to match the existing stucco cladding at this location; • Removal of historic French doors (Door F10) facing the rear patio and installation of a new metal-sash casement window (Window N3) in an altered opening at the same location; • Removal of non-historic window (Window E7) facing the rear patio and installation of a new metal-sash casement window (Window N3) at the same location. Alterations to the secondary north façade would include: • Removal of a non-historic, secondary sliding-glass door (Door F8) and installation of two metal-sash casement windows (Window N2 and N3) in an altered opening at the same location; • Removal of an existing metal-sash window (Window E6) and replacement with new metal-sash casement windows (Windows N4). • Removal of two existing historic wood windows (Windows E5 and E6) and replacement with like-for-like wood horizontal windows. • Removal of two to three linear feet of board-and-batten siding and application of stucco fill to accommodate the replacement of the easternmost window on this façade. Alterations to the rear-facing west façade would include: • Removal of non-historic vinyl window (Window E7) and replacement with metal-framed sliding glass door (Door P5) in an enlarged opening; • Removal of two paired 15-light wood-sash sliding windows (Windows E7), enlargement of openings at this location, and installation of a single metal French door and light assembly (Door P6). G. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30 -6, the Historic Resources Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on November 7, 2024, for the request for exterior modifications to the C.J. Young House. H. 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 following Secretary of Interior’s Standards are applicable:         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 4 of 13 i. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 1. The project does not propose to change the property’s historic and current use as a residence. Changes involving character- defining features would be limited mostly to the removal and replacement of historic windows and doors on the secondary and rear elevations, where public visibility is limited. Proposed alterations that would remove materials from the residence and garage center on the replacement of existing windows and doors, including some historic and all non - original features. Character-defining historic features proposed for removal include the like-for-like replacement of two wood horizontal windows and one metal casement window on the north-façade, the 15-light wood-sash window assemblies facing the rear patio from the west façade, and the wood French doors facing the patio from the south façade. Although these alterations would remove historic materials and features, this work would be confined to façades facing the enclosed side and back yards, which constitute private space with limited or no visibility from the right-of-way. Other proposed changes to the windows and doors would remove non-historic features on both the residence and garage, specifically vinyl windows, the non-historic front and secondary doors, and the existing metal roll-up garage door. The proposed window and door alterations would also involve the removal and/or addition of some existing stucco siding at several locations and two to three linear feet of board -and- batten siding from the secondary south elevation of the residence; however, although the siding is character-defining of the property, it is not a distinctive material and will be replaced or added in-kind to conform with the current appearance of both buildings’ exteriors. Additional work involving the removal or alteration of historic features and materials is limited to the leveling of the brick floor of the front porch. This work, which is proposed to enhance the utility of what is now a bi-level floor, will be completed with the addition of new brickwork of an appearance similar to the existing flooring material to bring the lower portion of the floor to the same level as the upper. The work will not require the removal of or substantial changes to any adjacent exterior wall surface or porch roof support. Overall, the project satisfies Standard No. 1 in that it would maintain the property’s historical use as a residence,         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 5 of 13 substantially limit the removal of historic materials and character-defining features to secondary facades that are minimally visible from the public right-of-way or are entirely outside public view, and replace any lost wall cladding and porch flooring materials in-kind. ii. As conditioned, the project generally complies with Standard No. 2. As discussed above in the analysis for Standard No. 1, the removal or significant alteration of historic materials and character-defining features includes the removal of one steel casement window and two sliding wood-sash windows on the south elevation, two paired 15-light wood window assemblies on the west elevation (facing the rear patio), one glazed wood set of French doors on the south elevation (also facing the patio), and stucco at select sites to accommodate alterations to both historic and non-historic doors and windows. In order to maintain the historic character of the house, replacements at these locations, consisting of both windows and doors, would be of metal fabrication modeled on the house’s existing multi-light steel casement windows. New window trim would be would also be modeled on and painted to match the existing trim. In some cases, non-original vinyl windows and other incompatible features would be changed out with replacements more closely matching the historical appearance of the house; such work includes the restoration of the primary-façade focal with a tripartite steel casement window nearly identical to the original at that location, in addition to the replacement of a north-elevation sliding glass door and a south-elevation vinyl window with multi-light sliding metal windows matching the trim, muntin dimensions, and color of metal windows elsewhere on the house. All new siding and brick work will include the replacement of addition of materials of similar to the appearance of corresponding existing materials and, aside from the leveling of the porch floor, will occur on secondary façades, where the alterations will be at most minimally visible from the right-of- way. Although the project would result in the loss of character- defining windows and doors on the secondary façades, the project would generally satisfy Standard No. 2, by restoring the historic appearance of the primary façade with the installation of a historically appropriate metal casement         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 6 of 13 window, removing non-conforming doors and windows entirely replacing them with new features complementary of the residence’s and garage’s historic appearance. The maintenance of the property’s historic character would also be served by limiting more pronounced alterations to historic features to the secondary and rear façades. iii. The project complies with Standard No. 3. The proposed changes will not create a false sense of historical development. New features proposed for addition to the residence and garage would consist primarily of doors and windows. To restore the east-façade steel casement window, the project architect examined recent imagery predating the replacement of the original window at that location to identify the original materials, dimensions, operation, and glazing pattern for the proposed window. Similarly, the metal window proposed for the north-elevation bathroom location matches the materials, glazing pattern, and trim of the existing historical window, but would be of a slightly reduced size. The other proposed window and door designs are also based on historic precedent, including general consistency with the materials and glazing patterns found on the subject property and, more broadly, with the varied window styles typical of Ranch-style homes. The proposed windows and glazed sliding doors would possess conservative, unembellished designs and metal fabrication that make them compatible with the historic character of the property, without introducing any conspicuous detailing. Thus, these new elements would to avoid the appearance of conjectural alterations and would not present a false sense of historical development. A similar approach was taken with the proposed garage door, which is understated enough to avoid a conjectural appearance but omits the period-inappropriate glazing of the existing garage door. Overall, the project avoids the addition of conjectural elements by modeling replacement features on documented features of the building or conservatively modeling new features on the standards of the Ranch style and general characteristics of the property. Standard 3 is therefore satisfied. iv. The project generally conforms to Standard No. 9. Although the project does not propose any new additions or related new construction, as discussed above, it proposes several exterior         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2024-XX Page 7 of 13 alterations involving the removal and replacement of historic and non-historic materials, principally windows and doors.

However, as doors and windows of modern commercial production, they would be inherently distinguishable from the historical features of the residence in their finish and glazing. No element of the project would alter any character-defining spaces or spatial relationships. v. Standard 4-8 and Standard 10 are not applicable. No features of this description would be affected by this Project. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the recommended action is exempt from further review under Section 15331, Class 31, as this action is designed in a manner consistent with the Secretary of Interior’s Standards. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2024 -85 will be filed for this project. Section 3.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Ad Hoc Committee, with Staff assistance, has slected nominations for the 2024 City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards. Five projects are nominated for the 2024 awards as examples of exemplary restoration and historic infill design efforts as well as general merit in the field of preservation. The nominees include the YMCA building (203- 205 West Civic Center Drive), the Thomas House (621 North Spurgeon Street), 625 South Broadway, the Pomeroy House (718 South Broadway), and a single in-fill project comprised of two new properties at 826 and 830 North Lacy Street. On behalf of the Ad Hoc Committee, Staff recommends the Commission approve the nominations. DISCUSSION Background In May 2024, Planning staff announced that the City was accepting nominations for the 2024 Historic Preservation Awards. The original deadline for nominations was Friday, August 9, 2024. However, the deadline was extended to Friday, September 6, 2024, to allow for additional nominations to be submitted. Staff received eight nominations in total but after staff review, it was determined that only five nominations met the eligibility requirements. On October 17, 2024, Planning staff met with members of the Ad Hoc Committee to discuss the five eligible nominations received for the 2024 City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards. The Ad Hoc Committee consisted of Historic Resource Commissioners Ginelle Hardy and Irma Jauregui, as well as a local architect, Robert Imboden, AIA. Mr. Imboden holds an undergraduate degrees in both Interior Design and         Ad Hoc Committee Nominations for the 2024 City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards November 7, 2024 Page 2 4 6 5 9 Art History, as well as a Masters Degree of Architecture from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. He also meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications (36CFR Part 61) in the areas of Architecture, Historic Architecture, History and Architectural History. After deliberating, the Ad Hoc Committee recommended the following 2024 Award Winners: Award of Merit: YMCA Award Winner: Caribou Industries Location: 203-205 West Civic Center Drive (northwest corner of West Civic Center Drive and South Sycamore Street) Background Constructed in 1923, the YMCA building is historically significant as a longstanding community institution that affected the lives of thousands of young men in Santa Ana and elsewhere. Santa Ana was, since its founding, home to numerous fraternal organizations that helped to strengthen the bonds of the community. Spurred by the growth Santa Ana experienced during the 1920s, several new fraternal associations were founded, and many older groups constructed new homes. The YMCA embodies this trend, having been founded locally in 1907 before constructing the building at 203-205 West Civic Center Drive. Development of the new facility was due, in large part, to the energy and vision of Ralph Smedley, the organization’s secretary, who also served as construction superintendent. The property is also architecturally significant as a fine example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style and as an illustration of the skill of its architect, Frederick Eley. A native of England, Eley relocated to Santa Ana in 1911 and established a practice responsible for the design of numerous institutional and residential buildings. The property was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1993 as an individual resource and, as a result, was added automatically to the California Register of Historical Resources. In addition, the property is individually listed as No. 6 on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties and categorized as “Landmark.” Description The YMCA building was selected for the merit of the initial efforts to prepare the building for its eventual rehabilitation as a hotel. So far, the preparatory work on the now-vacant building has focused on demolishing ancillary buildings, securing the primary building, and revitalizing its exterior. To these ends, between 2021 through 2022, Caribou Industries has removed incompatible perimeter security fencing, removed ply-wood boarding from the doorways and windows, and re-covered doorways and windows with         Ad Hoc Committee Nominations for the 2024 City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards November 7, 2024 Page 3 4 6 5 9 new secure panels embellished with designs representing the existing historic doors and window frames at each location. Moreover, Caribou Industries received City permits to demolish an ancillary hand ball court that was permitted in 1958 and a reinforced concrete building constructed in 1938. Neither of these ancillary buildings were physically attached to the historic YMCA building. While the rehabilitation of the building remains unrealized, the changes made to date have secured the vacant building from trespassing and vandalism and signal the potential to restore this highly visible landmark to a condition reflective of its historical and architectural importance to Santa Ana. Members of the Ad Hoc Committee concurred the work completed so far represented an important first step in rehabilitating this prominent building and that the efforts were worthy of recognition. The work was completed by mid-2022, and plans for the building’s eventual rehabilitation are currently being prepared in consultation with Preserve Orange County and the City. Rehabilitation Award: The Thomas House Award Winner: Diana Vogel Location: 621 North Spurgeon Street (southwest corner of North Spurgeon Street and East Civic Center Drive) Background The Thomas House is architecturally significant as an example of the Queen Anne style. Representative of its architectural style, the house features such characteristic features as a complex hipped and gabled roof, double-hung and canted bay windows, fish-scale shingle wall cladding, and various wood ornamental details. In 2001, the property was individually listed as No. 26 on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties and categorized as “Key.” Description The Thomas House was selected for the series of exterior improvements that contributed to the property’s rehabilitation. Although the property already had a relatively high degree of historical integrity prior to the improvements, it had suffered a loss of windows, deterioration of architectural detailing, weathering of exterior painting, and the addition of some non-conforming features, such as the non-original brick stairs and knee wall at the residence’s front entrance. Improvements were completed between circa 2016 and 2017 and consisted of a full rehabilitation of the residence and carriage house to restore existing architectural features and make additional stylistically appropriate exterior         Ad Hoc Committee Nominations for the 2024 City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards November 7, 2024 Page 4 4 6 5 9 improvements to replace missing elements and rectify non-conforming alterations. Work on the property included the following: •Rehabilitation/restoration of deteriorated architectural details •Addition of period- and stylistically appropriate wood-frame window screens •Repainting with a six-color paint scheme •Landscaping improvements to preserve view corridor of publicly visible facades •Addition of stylistically conforming, ornamental metal rail fence •Reroofing The work is generally consistent with Chapter 13 of the Santa Ana Citywide Architectural Design Guidelines and was completed in the overall spirit of the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Rehabilitation Award: 625 South Broadway Award Winner: 920 North Grand Avenue, LLC Location: 625 South Broadway (east of South Broadway, between West Bishop and Richland streets) Background Originally constructed in 1917, 625 South Broadway is architecturally significant as a good example of a Craftsman-style residence. The property is characterized by moderately overhanging eaves with exposed rafters and knee-braces, shingle and clapboard exterior cladding, multi-pane wood-sash windows, and a full-width porch. While the property is not officially listed on any historic register, it is located within Specific Development No. 40, for which the City has adopted special design guidelines to preserve the historic character of the Heninger Park neighborhood. Description The property at 625 South Broadway was selected for the excellent restoration effort undertaken on the residence and detached garage. In 2022, the property’s owners, 920 North Grand Avenue, LLC, began the process of rehabilitating the property as part of a project to repair weathering and other damage to the property. Ultimately, the work included the reversal of incompatible alterations to the wall cladding and porch configuration, reconstruction of the masonry chimney and fireplace, rehabilitation of secondary exterior elements. Specific exterior modifications included the following: • Removed front porch enclosure to restore the porch to its full width • Reconstructed masonry fireplace and chimney         Ad Hoc Committee Nominations for the 2024 City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards November 7, 2024 Page 5 4 6 5 9 • Replaced rain gutters, downspouts, notched rafter tails and clapboard siding • Rehabilitated foundation vents, bay window, and sidewall flare • Replaced garage bracing bars, carved triangular brackets, and exposed rafter tails • Painted: exterior, in a complementary 3 color scheme • Landscaping: front and side yards Work was finished in late 2022 and was completed generally in the spirit of the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and the Heninger Park Architectural Design Guidelines. Rehabilitation Award: The Pomeroy House Award Winner: Ali Mirhossein Location: 718 South Broadway (west of Broadway, between Richland and Highland streets) Background Originally constructed in 1912, the Pomeroy House is architecturally significant as an example of a Craftsman Bungalow. Its architectural character is perhaps best expressed in the decorative half-timbering found throughout the exterior elevations. This feature is suggestive of the somewhat rare Tudor Revival- and Swiss Chalet-influenced Craftsman houses built in Southern California in the early twentieth century and is not often observed in Craftsman-style homes. In 2002, the property was listed individually as No. 47 on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties and was categorized as “Landmark.” The property is also located within the boundaries of Specific Development No. 40. Description The Pomeroy House was selected as a good rehabilitation effort involving a highly distinctive Santa Ana property. Work centered on repairing and replacing important architectural details, replacing items as necessary with compatible materials and features. In treating the effects of weathering and other damaging forces, all work was completed by 2022. Specific modifications included the following: • Repair and in-kind replacement of the property’s key character-defining feature, its decorative half-timbering • Restoration and/or repair of windows and minor architectural features • Repainting of exterior         Ad Hoc Committee Nominations for the 2024 City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards November 7, 2024 Page 6 4 6 5 9 Work carried out through 2022 focused on preserving the property’s historical character and appearance with in-kind and compatible materials and thus was undertaken in a manner consistent with the Heninger Park Architectural Design Guidelines in the spirit of the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Historic Infill Design Award: 826 and 830 North Lacy Street Award Winner: Habitat for Humanity Location: 826 and 830 North Lacy Street (southwest corner of North Lacy Street and East Vance Place) Background Between 2022 and 2023, Habitat for Humanity developed two single-family affordable housing properties at 826 and 830 North Lacy Street on vacant land located in the National Register-listed French Park Historic District. Originally developed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, French Park is significant as one of Santa Ana’s oldest residential neighborhoods and for its historic architectural character, which is defined by rows of historic homes, several of which can be considered to be the finest examples of a particular style in Orange County. Styles range from the Queen Anne and other Victorian-era architectural traditions to the Period Revival styles that became prevalent in the early-to-mid twentieth century. Description To maintain the historic integrity of the district, Habitat for Humanity coordinated with the French Park Neighborhood Association to design the new houses and their respective detached garages in styles consistent with the historical development of French Park and with the neighborhood’s specific architectural guidelines. Specifically, 826 North Lacy Street was constructed in a restrained Folk Victorian style, while 830 North Lacy Street was built as a Craftsman Bungalow. Habitat for Humanity led the project, which was constructed with donated labor and materials. Once completed, the houses were intended to be sold to families of moderate income. The success of the project may also be measured by the fact that the two properties have been added as a stop on the French Park neighborhood home tours. Work was generally completed by late 2023. Special Recognition Lastly, the City received a nomination for The Rafferty project in downtown Santa Ana, which was not initially considered eligible. However, given the significance of the         Ad Hoc Committee Nominations for the 2024 City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards November 7, 2024 Page 7 4 6 5 9 preservation and restoration of the Orange County Title Company building façade, Planning staff is recommending a special recognition be given for this project. Staff notes that this will be a separate recognition from the 2024 City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards recognition, in order to respect the award criteria and those individuals that may have not submitted because they did not meet the eligibility requirements. Staff will retain the original nomination for The Rafferty and automatically include it as part of next year’s nominations, for consideration. Through ongoing conversations with the Ad Hoc committee there was a willingness to craft more flexible eligibility criteria of preservation/restoration projects that are not necessarily in an historic boundary and/or individually listed. In an effort to promote good preservation, Planning staff will be revising the eligibility criteria to allow properties to be considered if they are “deemed eligible,” historic resources, rather than just listed historic resources. Moreover, the City will explore the merits of more flexible categories, which could afford an opportunity to acknowledge persons or projects that do not technically fit into the existing categories/parameters.
