Washington Avenue) RECOMMENDED ACTION Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute a Historic Property Preservation Agreement (Mills Act) with Daniel Phan Nguyen, Trustee to The 305 E. Washington Ave Grantor Trust, for the property located at 305 E. Washington Avenue, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney (Exhibit 1). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Daniel Phan Nguyen is requesting approval to execute a Mills Act Agreement with the City of Santa Ana at an existing residence located at 305 E. Washington Avenue that is currently listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties and is categorized as Key. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property, known as the Wilson House, consists of an existing two-story Colonial Revival style residence that is approximately 2,117 square feet in size on a 6,431-square- foot residential lot. The Wilson House was added to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties (“Register”) in 2002 and categorized as “Key.” Analysis of the Issues Ordinance No. NS-2382 authorized the Historic Resources Commission to execute Historic Property Preservation Agreements (HPPA), commonly known as Mills Act agreements, for eligible properties. The property is listed on the Register and categorized as Key, making it eligible for a Mills Act Agreement. The agreement provides monetary incentives to the property owner in the form of a property tax reduction in exchange for the owner’s voluntary commitment to maintain the property in a good state of repair as necessary to maintain its character and appearance. Once recorded, the agreement     Historic Resources Commission 13 7/9/2025   HPPA No. 2025-02 – The Wilson House (305 E. Washington Avenue) July 9, 2025 Page 2 5 1 1 0 generates a different valuation method in determining the property’s assessed value, resulting in tax savings for the owner. Aside from the tax savings, the benefits include: •Long term preservation of the property and visual improvement to the neighborhood •Allows for a mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation •Provides additional incentive for potential buyers to purchase historic structures •Discourages inappropriate alterations to the property In 2002, the Historic Resources Commission placed the Wilson House on the Register and within the “Key” category for its distinctive architectural style and quality as an intact and representative example of a Colonial Revival residence from the early 1920s. Character-defining exterior features of the Wilson House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: sheathing (clapboard); roof configuration; massing; windows; porch; and architectural details such as boxed cornices and Tuscan columns. In 1933, a permit was issued to rebuild the chimney. In 1947, a permit was issued for a 3-foot-6-inch by 9-foot addition. During the 2025 site visit, staff noted the existing chimney and what could have been the 1947 addition at the rear, both of which are consistent with the Secretary of Interior Standards for Rehabilitation. In 2010, a permit was finaled for a composition shingle reroof and was noted during the 2025 staff site visit. Additionally, during the 2025 site visit, staff noted cracked paving at the front walkway, porch foundation, porch steps, porch floor, and building foundation. Staff will work with the property owner to address these concerns as part of the rehabilitation and restoration requirements during the duration of the Mills Act Agreement for this property. Additional future improvements proposed by staff and agreed to by the homeowner during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include interior porch roof repair, repair or replace side yard fence, wood siding and wood window maintenance and repair, exterior repainting with period-appropriate color palette, security lighting replacement with compatible style lighting, replace metal handrail and guardrails at property’s rear with compatibly designed replacements, and general on-going maintenance. Staff will ensure that the proposed work will be performed sensitively and will maintain the property’s character-defining features as part of the Mills Act Agreement for this property. As part of the Mills Act approval process, staff will work with the applicant to ensure that a bronze plaque is installed honoring and recognizing the structure. The plaque will include the historic name, address, year built, and local historic register designation. Lastly, the site will be subject to general maintenance and upkeep requirements including, but not limited to, replacement or restoration of damaged character-defining features, landscaping upkeep, painting, etc. These improvements will be subject to review and approval by staff. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement.     Historic Resources Commission 14 7/9/2025   HPPA No. 2025-02 – The Wilson House (305 E. Washington Avenue) July 9, 2025 Page 3 5 1 1 0 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15331 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 31 – Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation) as these actions are designed to preserve historic resources. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2025-29, will be filed for this project. FISCAL IMPACT The Historic Property Preservation Agreement will reduce the Property Tax revenue account 01102002-50011 to the City by an estimated $862.24 annually, for a period of not less than ten years.

Whether drawing upon Georgian, Federal, or Dutch Colonial prototypes, Colonial Revival buildings feature rectangular building plans and designs which are usually symmetrical, or at least highly regular and balanced, in composition. Roofs are commonly side-gabled, hipped, or gambreled, sometimes accented with dormers. Porches, one or two stories in height, are often included, mostly as central focal points, and frequently incorporate classical elements such as columns, pilasters, and entablatures. Doorways are adorned with classical surrounds and pediments; sidelights, transoms, and fanlights are not uncommon. Windows are typically double-hung sash, with multiple lights in the upper sash. French doors and Palladian windows are also utilized. Depending on location, Colonial Revival buildings have wood, brick, or stucco exteriors (McAlester, 320-326). SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Wilson House was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1999 as a contributor to the French Park Historic District. Under the regulations implementing the California Register of Historical Resources, the building is also listed in the California Register. It also qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Property under Criterion 1 as representative of the distinguishing characteristics of the Colonial Revival style. Additionally, the Wilson House has been categorized as “Key” for its “distinctive architectural style and quality,” as a representative example of the Colonial Revival style of the early 1920s (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries.) This two-story Colonial Revival house features a clipped, side-gabled roof with cornice returns and a plain frieze. A similarly styled offset front porch is attached to the eastern two-thirds of the primary (south) elevation. Exteriors are sheathed in narrow clapboard with a belt course dividing the two floors. Tripartite windows consisting of fixed center panes flanked by double-hung sash are located east and west of the central entrance. Other windows vary between double-hung sash and casements, arranged in singles or pairs, and are divided by vertical and horizontal muntins in the Craftsman manner. Tuscan columns resting on a concrete porch floor support the projecting front-gabled porch roof. Concrete steps with non-original wrought iron railings lead to the porch entrance where a screen door has been placed in front of a wood door with three center lights. A painted exterior brick chimney pierces the roof edge on the west elevation. Secondary elevations contain smaller, double-hung windows. In 1947 an addition was constructed, perhaps at the rear. Other than the railings, the house appears original and in good condition. *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP2. Single-family Property *P4.

Also address integrity) The Wilson House is significant as a representative example of a Colonial Revival house from the early 1920s in Santa Ana. It is also important as a contributor to the French Park Historic District. According to previous research, the original owners were Roscoe and Grace Wilson, who also developed houses at 1227 and 1229 North French Street at around the same time. The Wilsons resided in this house until at least 1947. Mr. Wilson was president of the Santa Ana Preserving Company on Fruit Street before founding The Wilson Company, a manufacturer of perfumes and toiletries also located on Fruit Street. He continued with The Wilson Company into the 1940s (Marsh, 1998). (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) B11. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) *B12.

Significance (continued): Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. In 1877, Spurgeon, along with James McFadden and James Fruit, formed the Western Development Company with the intention of bringing the Southern Pacific Railroad from its then terminus in Anaheim into Santa Ana. Thinking to capitalize on commercial growth around the railroad, the partners purchased 160 acres adjacent to the eastern city boundary at French Street. Although they were successful in luring the Southern Pacific to a new depot on Fruit Street in Santa Ana in 1878, the expected commercial development of “Santa Ana East” never materialized. Early growth and development of the town continued to be centered further west around Fourth and Main Streets, with the result that the legacy of Santa Ana East is an angled street plan whose intersection with the original city is marked by a small, triangular parcel, developed in the 1890s as Flatiron Park, now known as French Park. Santa Ana continued to grow, stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad in 1886. Following its incorporation as a city in 1886, Santa Ana was recognized as one of the leading communities in the area in 1889 when it became the seat of the newly created County of Orange. Beginning in the 1880s and continuing well into the twentieth century, the area around the park began to be developed with many of the finest homes in Santa Ana. Examples of Victorian era, turn of the century, and Craftsman homes were built along the tree-lined streets. By the 1920s, most streets in the neighborhood were fully developed, although a few revival styled single family homes and duplexes were built during the 1920s, and a handful of apartments constructed in the 1930s. From the nineteenth century onwards, residents were a “Who’s Who” of early Santa Ana, and included bankers, attorneys, doctors, businessmen, ranchers, teachers and others active in the civic and social life of the city. Once known as the “Nob Hill” of Santa Ana, French Park declined in the 1940s and 1950s as some homes were converted into rooming houses and others were allowed to deteriorate. In the 1960s and 1970s some houses were demolished and the properties redeveloped with multi-family housing. However, a grass roots preservation effort begun in the late 1970s led to the establishment of a local historic district in 1984 and the listing of the neighborhood in the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. The Wilson House was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1999 as a contributor to the French Park Historic District. It is therefore listed in the California Register of Historical Resources and is located within the boundaries of the locally designated historic district. It also qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Property under Criterion 1 as an intact and representative example of a Colonial Revival residence from the early 1920s. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Key” for its distinctive architectural style and quality. Characteristic Colonial Revival features include the clipped, side-gabled roof (also known as a “jerkinhead roof”), boxed cornices, broad front-gabled porch with Tuscan supports, and exterior brick chimney . Character-defining exterior features of the Wilson House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: sheathing (clapboard); roof configuration; massing; windows; porch; and architectural details such as boxed cornices and Tuscan columns. *B12.

Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose. 2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when possible. 3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged. 4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment. These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this significance shall be recognized and respected. 5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity. 6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced, whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic, physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or structures. 7.

Fourth Street) RECOMMENDED ACTION Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute a Historic Property Preservation Agreement (Mills Act) with Vincent F. Sarmiento and Eva Casas-Sarmiento, for the property located at 1617 E. Fourth Street, subject to non- substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney (Exhibit 1). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Vincent F. Sarmiento and Eva Casas-Sarmiento are requesting approval to execute a Mills Act Agreement with the City of Santa Ana at an existing residence located at 1617 E. Fourth Street that is currently listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties and is categorized as Landmark. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property, known as the Borchard House, consists of an existing two-story Spanish Colonial Revival-style residence and secondary building that are a combined 4,606 square feet in size located on a 26,500-square-foot residential lot. The Borchard House was added to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties (“Register”) in 2004 and categorized as “Landmark,” as recorded in Historical Resources Commission meeting minutes dated March 4, 2004 and pertaining to Historic Resources Commission Application No. 2003-02 and Historic Register Categorization No. 2003-02 (Exhibit 4). Analysis of the Issues Ordinance No. NS-2382 authorized the Historic Resources Commission to execute Historic Property Preservation Agreements (HPPA), commonly known as Mills Act agreements, for eligible properties. The property is listed on the Register and categorized as Key, making it eligible for a Mills Act Agreement. The agreement provides monetary incentives to the property owner in the form of a property tax reduction in exchange for     Historic Resources Commission 39 7/9/2025   HPPA No. 2025-05 – The Borchard House (1617 E. Fourth Street) July 9, 2025 Page 2 5 1 2 3 the owner’s voluntary commitment to maintain the property in a good state of repair as necessary to maintain its character and appearance. Once recorded, the agreement generates a different valuation method in determining the property’s assessed value, resulting in tax savings for the owner. Aside from the tax savings, the benefits include: •Long term preservation of the property and visual improvement to the neighborhood •Allows for a mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation •Provides additional incentive for potential buyers to purchase historic structures •Discourages inappropriate alterations to the property In 2004, the Historic Resources Commission placed the Borchard House on the Register and within the “Landmark” category as the work of renowned Santa Ana Architect Frederick Eley and for its unique architectural quality as a highly intact and finely detailed example of Eley’s interpretation of the Spanish Colonial Revival style applied to a large residential commission. All original exterior features of the Borchard House are character- defining and should be preserved including, but not be limited to: materials and finishes; roof configuration, materials, and detailing; massing; entry configuration and detailing; porte cochere; windows, doors, and balconies; architectural details such as columns; corbels, archivolt, and wrought ironwork; garage/guest house; and original landscape features such as the pergola, driveway, palm trees and other mature trees. In 2004, building permits were issued for the repair of fire-damaged rafters, joists, and tiles. No other exterior alterations were documented in City building permits or observed during the site inspection conducted in 2025. Additionally, during the 2025 site visit, Planning Division staff noted cracked paving at the front and rear walkways, porch steps, porch floor, porch alcove walls, and stucco siding at several locations. In addition, peeling, cracked, blistered, and/or discolored paint was observed in several locations, including the exterior walls, fascia, and window frames and sashes of the primary and secondary buildings were observed. Finally, Planning Division staff noted the water heater at the rear of the secondary building was not situated in a permanent enclosure. Planning Division staff will work with the property owner to address these items as part of the rehabilitation and restoration requirements during the duration of the Mills Act Agreement for this property. Additional future improvements proposed by Planning Division staff and agreed to by the homeowner during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include repair of porch steps, floor, and walls; repair, repainting, and/or replacement of rain gutters, fascia, and windows; repair of cracks in concrete walkways and similar paved surfaces; repair and repainting of exterior wall stucco; and construction of a permanent, stucco-clad enclosure for the water heater located at the rear of the secondary building. Staff will ensure that the proposed work will be performed sensitively and will maintain the property’s character-defining features as part of the Mills Act Agreement for this property.     Historic Resources Commission 40 7/9/2025   HPPA No. 2025-05 – The Borchard House (1617 E. Fourth Street) July 9, 2025 Page 3 5 1 2 3 As part of the Mills Act approval process, staff will work with the applicant to ensure that a bronze plaque is installed honoring and recognizing the structure. The plaque will include the historic name, address, year built, and local historic register designation. Lastly, the site will be subject to general maintenance and upkeep requirements including, but not limited to, replacement or restoration of damaged character-defining features, landscaping upkeep, painting, etc. These improvements will be subject to review and approval by staff. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15331 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 31 – Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation) as these actions are designed to preserve historic resources. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2025-50, will be filed for this project. FISCAL IMPACT The Historic Property Preservation Agreement will reduce the Property Tax revenue account 01102002-50011 to the City by an estimated $1,545.57 annually, for a period of not less than ten years.

The Mission Revival vocabulary, popular between 1890 and 1920, drew its inspiration from the missions of the Southwest. Identifying features include curved parapets (or espadana); red tiled roofs and coping; low-pitched roofs, often with overhanging eaves; porch roofs supported by large, square piers; arches; and wall surfaces commonly covered in smooth stucco. The Spanish Colonial Revival flourished between 1915 and 1940, reaching its apex during the 1920s and 1930s. The movement received widespread attention after the Panama- California Exposition in San Diego in 1915, where lavish interpretations of Spanish and Mexican prototypes were showcased. Easily recognizable hallmarks of the Spanish Colonial Revival are low-pitched roofs, usually with little or no overhangs and red tile roof coverings, flat roofs surrounded by tiled parapets; and stuccoed walls. The Spanish vocabulary also includes arches; asymmetry; balconies and patios; window grilles; and decorative elements of wood, wrought iron, tile, or stone. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Borchard House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Property under Criterion 4 as the work of Frederick Eley, a notable architect whose style influenced the City’s architectural development. Additionally, the Borchard House has been categorized as “Landmark” for its “unique architectural significance” as a highly intact and finely detailed example of Eley’s interpretation of the Spanish Colonial Revival style applied to a large residential commission (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

Deeply set back from the north side of East Fourth Street, this is a two-story residence in the Spanish Colonial Revival style. Rectangular in plan, the stucco-covered building is capped by a tiled hip roof. A pair of belt courses circles the building, giving the lower story added prominence by its greater height. The façade consists of five bays, the central three of which form a nearly symmetrical composition around a central entry. Four steps, flanked by pedestals carrying lampposts, lead up to an arched opening defined by archivolts and a keystone. The walls of the barrel-vaulted vestibule are finished to resemble dressed masonry. A wrought iron grille containing the letter “B” embellishes the round-headed oak door. Shading the entry, a second story ironwork balcony sits on the keystone and two corbels. Three arched French doors, separated by spiraled columns, open onto the balcony. The arched theme continues on the lower story east bay, where three pairs of French doors are adorned with balconets. Most other openings are one-over-one double-hung sash in type, arranged in widely spaced pairs. The westernmost bay contains a porte cochere, through whose segmental arched opening a one-story garage and guest house, stucco-sided and tile-roofed, can be glimpsed. A curved driveway leads to the porte cochere. On the east, a (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP2. Single-family Property *P4.

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: circa 1880-1946 Property Type: Single-family Residence Applicable Criteria: B, C (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity) The Borchard House is architecturally significant for its elegant and highly intact design by renowned Santa Ana architect Frederick Eley. It is also notable for its historic association with three prominent Santa Ana families. According to the building permit, the house was constructed in 1924 at a cost of $30,000, a substantial sum of money at the time. Leo and Marie Borchard, a prosperous ranching and investment family, were the original owners. Leo Borchard was the eldest of a family of five brothers and sisters whose father, Casper, was a successful farmer in Ventura County. Leo Borchard came to the Santa Ana vicinity in 1900, and with his brother Frank became a major landholder, farming over 2,000 acres, the majority of which was in the Santa Ana area. The Borchards were well-known not only for their acreage, but also for their innovative and early use of tractors in farming, for their widespread road-building and drainage work, and for the raising of Norman-Percheron horses and mules. During the Depression, the Borchards sold the estate to Dr. and Mrs. Winfield E. Dixon. Dr. Dixon (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) B11.

The front lawn is accented by a pair of palm trees and other mature plantings. In the rear, a portion of an original pergola stands at the northeast corner of the property. Although the house has been converted into offices, it appears to be unchanged on the exterior. *B10. Significance (continued): practiced from his home and also served on the City Council in 1942-1943. In 1955, the residence was purchased by G. Willard and Hazel Bassett, who utilized the property as a home and music school. Willard Bassett was also the director of music at the United Presbyterian Church in Santa Ana. Mr. Bassett, a respected voice instructor and soloist, died in 1973, after which Mrs. Bassett, also a soloist, and her son Ralph continued to occupy the property and teach music (Les, 1979). By 1992, the house had been converted into offices for Continental Dental Plan. The Borchard House is located on East Fourth Street, several blocks east of downtown. This area, on the outskirts of town at the time the house was constructed, offered generously sized lots well suited to the substantial massing of this 4,600 square foot, ten-room residence. Showcasing Frederick Eley’s mature style, the house was constructed concurrently with the Santa Ana Ebell and YMCA Clubhouses, also exercises in Spanish-Mediterranean design. Eley, born and educated in England, arrived in southern California in 1907 after spending a few years in Canada. He settled in Santa Ana and opened an office in 1911, quickly establishing a reputation for residential and school design throughout Orange County. Other key commissions included churches and government buildings. From 1911 until he left Santa Ana in 1937, but particularly from the mid Teens through the mid Twenties, Eley was Santa Ana’s foremost architect. The Borchard House offered an opportunity to design a home on a generous budget, and the gracefully designed exterior, incorporating elements culled from the Italian Renaissance Revival, and lavishly appointed interior featuring a generous use of wood, is a particularly notable survivor of Eley’s distinguished career. Other interior highlights included a living room fireplace, tiled from hearth to ceiling, decorative ceiling treatments, elaborate crown moldings, leaded glass pocket doors, and a built-in sideboard. Equally impressive, the grounds incorporated formal gardens whose highlights included a pergola and a rose garden containing some 200 specimens. The Borchard House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Property under Criterion 2 as the work of a notable architect whose style influenced the City’s architectural development. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Landmark” for its unique architectural quality as a highly intact and finely detailed example of Eley’s interpretation of the Spanish Colonial Revival style applied to a large residential commission. All original exterior features of the Borchard House are considered character-defining and should be preserved, including, but not limited to: materials and finishes; roof configuration, materials, and detailing; massing; entry configuration and detailing; porte cochere; windows, doors, and balconies; architectural details such as columns; corbels, archivolt, and wrought ironwork; garage/guest house; and original landscape features such as the pergola, driveway, palm trees and other mature trees. *B12.

Poinsettia Street) RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt a resolution approving Historic Resources Commission Application No. 2025-06 and Historic Register Categorization No. 2025-05 (Exhibit 1). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Carol Park is requesting approval to designate an existing Spanish Colonial Revival-style residence located at 2429 N. Poinsettia Street to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The property qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Spanish Colonial Revival-style house. It is also worthy of “Contributive” categorization as it contributes to the history and character of its neighborhood as an example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style, including its stuccoed exterior walls, clay-barrel-tile roofing, and multi-pane wood-sash windows. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located on a corner lot with Poinsettia Street to the west and Edgewood Road to the north, in the Park Santiago neighborhood in Santa Ana. The site contains a 1,412-square-foot, Spanish Colonial Revival-style residence and detached garage on a 7,840-square-foot residential lot (Exhibits 3 and 4). Analysis of the Issues Historical Listing In March 1999, the City Council approved Ordinance No. NS-2363 establishing the Historic Resources Commission and the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The Historic Resources Commission may, by resolution and at a noticed public hearing, designate as a historical property any building or part thereof, object, structure, or site     Historic Resources Commission 95 7/9/2025   HRCA No. 2025-06 and HRC No. 2025-05 – The Mills House (2429 N. Poinsettia Street) July 9, 2025 Page 2 5 1 2 6 having importance to the history or architecture of the city in accordance with the criteria set forth in Section 30-2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC). This project entails applying the selection criteria established in Chapter 30 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (Places of Historical and Architectural Significance) to determine if this structure is eligible for historic designation to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The first criterion for selection requires that the structures be 50 or more years old. The structure identified meets the selection criteria for inclusion on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties pursuant to criteria contained in Section 30-2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, as the structure is 100 years old and is a sound example of period architecture. No known code violations exist on record for this property. The Mills House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Spanish Colonial Revival-style house in Santa Ana. Assessor data indicates it was built in 1925. The original architect and contractor are unknown. The earliest known occupants are Sarah and Edmund M. Mills, who purchased the property by February 1926, according to an article published in the Santa Ana Register on February 25, 1926. Prior to the Mills family's acquisition of the subject property, Edmund was a member of the Methodist Ministry serving in the Syracuse, New York, area. He was also president of the Syracuse Rose Society and the American Rose Society, both of which promoted appreciation of the rose (Stack no date). Edmund died in 1933 (Imperial Valley Press March 15, 1933). By May 1935, the family of Guy J. Gilbert resided in the subject residence, followed later that same year by the family of Howard I. Wood (Santa Ana Journal). By 1947, Thomas and Alpha Cave moved into the property. City records show that Alpha Cave was associated with the property until 2002 and that the current owner and resident, Carol Park, acquired the property that same year. Located on a corner parcel in the Park Santiago neighborhood, the Mills House consists of a one-story, single-family residence and detached garage constructed in the Spanish Colonial Revival style. The parcel is bounded on the west by North Poinsettia Street and on the north by Edgewood Road. The residence is irregular in plan, with exterior walls sheathed in stucco and a complex roof clad alternately in clay barrel tiles and rolled composite material. Facing Poinsettia Street to the west, the asymmetrical main façade is shaped by the house’s complex roof; in particular, it features a wing-and-gable composition interrupted by a pyramidal portico roof situated at the juncture of two intersecting wings. A pair of arched entries provide ingress and egress to the portico, which shelters a non-historic glazed wood front door. On either side of the portico, windows are deeply set within segmental arch surrounds; both windows consist of a multi- pane, fixed, wood central sash flanked by two eight-light wood sashes with fixed or casement configurations. Located above the gable-end window is a circular clay gable vent. Other notable primary-façade elements include a low stucco wall enclosing a concrete front patio, arched portal to the southern side yard, and a molded stucco ornamental feature suggestive of an oeil de boeuf. Secondary façades on the north, south, and east, including the rear addition completed circa 2012, are consistent with the general characteristics of the front-facing west façade,     Historic Resources Commission 96 7/9/2025   HRCA No. 2025-06 and HRC No. 2025-05 – The Mills House (2429 N. Poinsettia Street) July 9, 2025 Page 3 5 1 2 6 including multi-pane hung, fixed, and casement windows of both wood and vinyl sashes; glazed wood doors; and clay ornamental features, specifically false canales. A non- historic stuccoed privacy wall along the north property line wall encloses the side and back yards. On the north elevation, near the front of the residence, is the stuccoed chimney, featuring a molded stucco triangle feature. Facing the side yard is one of three secondary entrances, which features a small porch, ten-light French doors, and historic wood hung windows with six-light upper and single-pane lower sashes. The porch, which occupies a recess in the north elevation is sheltered by exposed beams emanating from the exterior wall. The other entrances are located on the east elevation of the original rear of the residence and north elevation of the addition and feature glazed wood doors. Both entrances are accessed by short sets of steps with roughly identical stuccoed curved balustrades topped with tile coping. Windows on the historic sections of the secondary elevations are uniformly wood-sash units, with configurations that include multi-light fixed, hung with multi-light upper and fixed lower sashes, and multi-light casements. Windows throughout the rear addition feature vinyl sashes and are configured to complement the historic character of the house with vertically sliding operability, multi-pane sashes, and elements suggesting ogee lugs. Situated at the far eastern end of the parcel, the detached garage was constructed in 2012 to complement the historic appearance of the property. It is rectangular in plan, sheathed in stucco, and capped with a flat roof concealed by a minimally shaped parapet with tile coping. The roll-up garage door faces a short driveway to the north, accessing Edgewood Road. The property is landscaped with a front lawn, low shrubs, mature ornamental trees, and various flowering plants. Character-defining features of the Spanish Colonial Revival style exhibited by the house include, but are not necessarily limited to, its asymmetrical wing-and-gable composition; clay-barrel-tile roofing; portico with pyramidal and arched openings; front patio with low, stuccoed privacy wall; side porch (north façade) with extended-beam shelter; wood-sash windows in various configurations; recessed, segmental-arch window surrounds on the primary façade; ornamental details including the clay gable vent, oeil de boeuf, false canales (where they are original to the building), and molded triangle feature on the base of the chimney; and front lawn with associated foliage. The Mills House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Spanish Colonial Revival-style home in Santa Ana. Located in Park Santiago, the house was constructed in 1925. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it contributes to the overall character and history of its neighborhood and is a good example of period architecture (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). Public Notification The subject site is located within the Park Santiago Neighborhood Association. The president of this Neighborhood Association was notified by mail 10 days prior to this public hearing.

The Mission Revival vocabulary, popular between 1890 and 1920, drew its inspiration from the missions of the Southwest. Identifying features include curved parapets (or espadaña); red tiled roofs and coping; low-pitched roofs, often with overhanging eaves; porch roofs supported by large, square piers; arches; and wall surfaces commonly covered in smooth stucco. The Spanish Colonial Revival flourished between 1915 and 1940, reaching its apex during the 1920s and 1930s. The movement received widespread attention after the Panama-California Exposition in San Diego in 1915, where lavish interpretations of Spanish and Mexican prototypes were showcased. Easily recognizable hallmarks of the Spanish Colonial Revival are low-pitched roofs, usually with little or no overhangs and red tile roof coverings, flat roofs surrounded by tiled parapets; and stuccoed walls. The Spanish vocabulary also includes arches; asymmetry; balconies and patios; window grilles; and decorative elements of wood, wrought iron, tile, or stone. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Mills House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for its embodiment of the distinguishing characteristics of a Spanish Colonial Revival style residential building. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it contributes to the overall character and history of the Park Santiago neighborhood and is a good example of Spanish Colonial Revival style architecture (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

The parcel is bounded on the west by North Poinsettia Street and on the north by Edgewood Road. The residence is irregular in plan, with exterior walls sheathed in stucco and a complex roof clad alternately in clay barrel tiles and rolled composite material. Facing Poinsettia Street to the west, the asymmetrical main façade is shaped by the house’s complex roof; in particular it features a wing-and- gable composition interrupted by a pyramidal portico roof situated at the juncture of two intersecting wings (Figure 2). A pair of arched entries provide ingress and egress to the portico, which shelters a non-historic glazed wood front door. On either side of the portico, windows are deeply set within segmental arch surrounds; both windows consist of a multi-pane, fixed, wood central sash flanked by two eight-light wood sashes with fixed or casement configurations (Figure 3). Located above the gable-end window is a circular clay gable vent. Other notable primary-façade elements include a low stucco wall encloses a concrete front patio, arched portal to the southern side yard, and a molded stucco ornamental feature suggestive of an oeil de boeuf (Figure 4).

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1925 Property Type: Single-family residence Applicable Criteria: C/3 (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity) The Mills House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Spanish Colonial Revival-style house in Santa Ana. Assessor data indicates it was built in 1925. The original architect and contractor are unknown. The earliest known occupants are Sarah and Edmund M. Mills, who purchased the property by February 1926, according to an article published in the Santa Ana Register on February 25, 1926. Prior to the Mills family's acquisition of the subject property, Edmund was a member of the Methodist Ministry serving in the Syracuse, New York, area. He was also president of the Syracuse Rose Society and the American Rose Society, both of which promoted appreciation of the rose (Stack no date). Edmund died in 1933 (Imperial Valley Press March 15, 1933). By May 1935, the family of Guy J. Gilbert resided in the subject residence, followed later that same year by the family of Howard I. Wood (Santa Ana Journal). By 1947, Thomas and Alpha Cave moved into the property. City records show that Alpha Cave was associated with the property until 2002 and that the current owner and resident, Carol Park, acquired the property that same year. (See Continuation Sheet 3).

Description (continued): Secondary façades on the north, south, and east, including the rear addition completed circa 2012, are consistent with the general characteristics of the front-facing west façade, including multi-pane hung, fixed, and casement windows of both wood and vinyl sashes; glazed wood doors; and clay ornamental features, specifically false canales (Figure 5). A non-historic stuccoed privacy wall along the north property line wall encloses the side and back yards. On the north elevation, near the front of the residence, is the stuccoed chimney, featuring a molded stucco triangle feature (Figure 6). Facing the side yard is one of three secondary entrances, which features a small porch, ten-light French doors, and historic wood hung windows with six-light upper and single-pane lower sashes (Figure 7). The porch, which occupies a recess in the north elevation is sheltered by exposed beams emanating from the exterior wall. The other entrances are located on the east elevation of the original rear of the residence and north elevation of the addition and feature glazed wood doors. Both entrances area accessed by short sets of steps with roughly identical stuccoed curved balustrades topped with tile coping (Figure 8). Windows on the historic sections of the secondary elevations are uniformly wood-sash units, with configurations that include multi-light fixed, hung with multi-light upper and fixed lower sashes, and multi-light casements. Windows throughout the rear addition feature vinyl sashes and are configured to complement the historic character of the house with vertically sliding operability, multi-pane sashes, and elements suggesting ogee lugs. Situated at the far eastern end of the parcel, the detached garage was constructed in 2012 to complement the historic appearance of the property (Figure 9). It is rectangular in plan, sheathed in stucco, and capped with a flat roof concealed by a minimally shaped parapet with tile coping. The roll-up garage door faces a short driveway to the north, accessing Edgewood Road. The property is landscaped with a front lawn, low shrubs, mature ornamental trees, and various flowering plants. *B10. Significance (continued): The Mills House is located in the Park Santiago neighborhood. The neighborhood is bounded by Santiago Creek and Park on the north, East Seventeenth Street on the south, North Lincoln Avenue on the east, North Main Street on the west, and the I- 5 freeway on the southwest. In large part these boundaries reflect the transportation lines that were constructed towards the end of the nineteenth century and at the beginning of the twentieth century, when the Pacific Electric interurban railroad ran up Main Street; the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe tracks followed Lincoln; and the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way mirrored the freeway route. This area remained primarily agricultural well into the 1920s. As of 1905, the city directories listed around twenty households on East Santa Clara, Twentieth Street, “C Street” (now North Santiago Street), North Bush Street and North Main Avenue, the only streets in the area at the time. The vast majority of the residents were ranchers. By 1911, the number of households had increased to about thirty, and Edgewood Road and Valencia Street had been partially laid out, but most residents continued to list “rancher” or “fruit grower” as their occupation in the city directories. This pattern of land use was evident on the 1912 plat map of the City, which illustrated two small, Craftsman era subdivisions along Bush north of Santa Clara and on Valencia and Poinsettia south of Twentieth Street, with the remaining area divided into larger, agricultural parcels held by approximately forty landowners. While the area east of Santiago Street was not subdivided until after the mid-1920s, most of the present day streets west of Santiago had been laid out when the City was mapped in 1923. Ranching continued to be the most prevalent occupation in the neighborhood, but increasing numbers of professionals, small business owners, merchants, and people in service professions such as painters, electricians, and carpenters made their homes in the western half of the neighborhood during the 1920s and 1930s. The area also attracted several city and county officials, including the City Attorney (Z. B. West, Jr., 321 East Santa Clara Avenue), County Supervisor, First District (C. H. Chapman, 2315 North Santiago Street), County Surveyor (E. H. Irwin, 2407 North Santiago Street), and County Auditor (William C. Jerome, 2422 Poinsettia Street). By April 1942, when the Sanborn Company first mapped the western half of the area, most of the lots had been improved with single- family homes, many in the revival styles popular during the 1920s and 1930s. Subsequent development of the eastern half of the neighborhood and infill construction in the western half displayed the simplified ranch style that emerged following World War II. The Mills House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Spanish Colonial Revival-style home in Santa Ana. Located in Park Santiago, the house was constructed in 1925. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it contributes to the overall character and history of its neighborhood and is a good example of period architecture (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). Character-defining features of the Spanish Colonial Revival style exhibited by the house include, but are not necessarily limited to, its asymmetrical wing-and- gable composition; clay-barrel-tile roofing; portico with pyramidal and arched openings; front patio with low, stuccoed privacy wall; side porch (north façade) with extended-beam shelter; wood-sash windows in various configurations; recessed, segmental-arch window surrounds on the primary façade; ornamental details including the clay gable vent, oeil de boeuf,     Historic Resources Commission 109 7/9/2025   State of California  The Resources Agency Primary # _____________________________________________ DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION HRI # ________________________________________________ CONTINUATION SHEET Trinomial _____________________________________________ Page 4_ of 6_Resource Name: Mills House *Recorded by Andrea Dumovich Heywood *Date March 6, 2025  Continuation  Update DPR 523L false canales (where they are original to the building), and molded triangle feature on base of chimney; and front lawn with associated foliage. *B12.
