Review calendar of regularly scheduled City Council meetings in 2026. 2. Cancel the regularly scheduled City Council meetings of January 6, 2026, August 18, 2026, and November 3, 2026. 3. Direct staff to post Notice(s) of Cancellation and waive notice to the City Council of said meetings as required by the Government Code. GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No DISCUSSION Pursuant to Charter Section 409, the City Council has adopted a resolution setting the time, place, and manner of holding its meetings. Resolution No. 2025-004, Section 2(a), states “Regular meetings of the City Council shall be on the first and third Tuesdays of each month beginning on January 1, 2014.” Past practice by the City Council has typically been to cancel the first meeting of the calendar year, a meeting during the summer months, a meeting that falls on Election Day, and any other meetings as requested by the City Council. Staff recommends that the same past practice be adopted for 2026: 1. Cancel the first meeting of the year scheduled for January 6, 2026. City Hall will be closed from December 25, 2025 through January 4, 2026 for the holidays (Christmas Day and New Year’s Day), weekends, the negotiated Holiday Closure within several Memoranda of Understanding, and the standard alternating Friday closure.

Cancel the meeting scheduled for November 3, 2026 (Election Day). The proposed 2026 calendar (Exhibit 1) includes the three above-referenced recommendations and sets a Special Meeting for December 8, 2026 for the certification of election results and swearing-in ceremony pursuant to Charter Section 400.

City Council 8 – 1 11/4/2025 Appropriation Adjustment for Water Capital Improvement Projects November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 3 8 7 On June 4, 2024, City Council approved the sale of Water Revenue Bonds, Series 2024, to finance $40 million to fund a portion of the design, acquisition, and construction of certain improvements to the City’s water system.

As such, staff evaluated previously identified projects and reprioritized projects based on current needs and project delivery timelines to ensure the bond funds were spent expeditiously. Staff recommends that water bond funds be reallocated for the projects shown below.

Meters of this size typically serve commercial, industrial, or multi-family customers, and although they only make up approximately 10% of the total water customers, they account for nearly 30% of the Water Enterprises’ annual revenue. Additionally, this project will provide funding for the repair of meter vaults and/or vault decks that have become structurally comprised and may pose a safety hazard. The budget for this project has been significantly reduced as a result of the cost savings from utilizing the newly created in-house Construction Services Section. The cost savings are being reallocated to support the completion of other priority projects in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) that are currently awaiting funding. Washington Well Improvements – Phase II (No. 26-6425) This project consists of constructing and equipping the newly-drilled Washington Well, which will provide a much-needed, new groundwater source to the northeastern portion of the City. The project is currently in the preliminary design phase, with completion of the full design expected in fall 2026. With the chosen design-bid-build project delivery method, staff intends to use bond funds for the design phase and will identify a funding source for the construction phase at a City Council 8 – 3 11/4/2025 Appropriation Adjustment for Water Capital Improvement Projects November 4, 2025 Page 4 5 3 8 7 later date. This methodology ensures bond funds are spent expeditiously on an active phase of the project. Citywide Facilities Electrical Improvements The original scope of this project was intended to support electrical upgrades and modifications at water production facilities. However, these City-funded improvements are now being incorporated into the broader Citywide PFAS Improvements Project (No. 26-6426), identified below, which will address electrical, control, and instrumentation needs as part of overall enhancements to water production facilities. Well 32 Rehabilitation (No. 13-6433) The project is currently in the construction phase and is expected to be completed in the near term. In order to expeditiously expend water bond funds, staff recommends reprogramming bond funds to this project. Bristol Street Water Main Improvements Phase 3A (No. 15-6445) The project is currently in the construction phase and is expected to be completed in the near term. In order to expeditiously expend water bond funds, staff recommends reprogramming bond funds to this project. Well 29 Improvements (No. 18-6491) The project is currently in the construction phase and is expected to be completed in the near term. In order to expeditiously expend water bond funds, staff recommends reprogramming bond funds to this project. Bristol Street Water Main Improvements Phase 4 (No. 19-6499) The project is currently in the construction phase and is expected to be completed in the near term. In order to expeditiously expend water bond funds, staff recommends reprogramming bond funds to this project. Citywide Facilities PFAS Improvements Project (No. 26-6426) Due to the presence per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) substances, treatment facilities have been constructed, or are in the process of being constructed, at several of the City well sites in order to introduce water pumped from the groundwater basin into the City’s distribution system. This project is currently in the planning, design, and construction phases and will include site-specific modifications needed to support PFAS treatment operations, such as electrical upgrades and control and instrumentation improvements. These elements are outside the funding scope of the Orange County Water District’s PFAS Treatment Program, and therefore are being implemented with City funds to ensure system compatibility and operational reliability. All improvements will be completed within the same timeframes as other projects identified for bond fund expenditure. City Council 8 – 4 11/4/2025 Appropriation Adjustment for Water Capital Improvement Projects November 4, 2025 Page 5 5 3 8 7 Lacy Neighborhood Water Main Improvements (No. 19-6428) The project will replace water mains and related appurtenances, such as shutoff valves and service lines, in an area that has experienced system failures and has infrastructure identified to have exceeded its expected life. This project will be completed in-house by the Construction Services Section. Citywide Water Improvements Project (No. 26-6427) The citywide water improvements will focus on the replacement of water mains and related appurtenances, such as shutoff valves and service lines, that have either exceeded their expected life or are known to be damaged. This project will be completed in-house by the Construction Services Section. Fire Hydrant Improvements Project (No. 26-6428) The project will replace aging fire hydrants and associated fire suppression infrastructure to increase system reliability and ensure the system continues to meet flow requirement regulations. This project will be completed in-house by the Construction Services Section. Of the $40 million in water bond funds received, a total of $15 million was previously appropriated upon City Council’s approval on July 16, 2024 for expenditure on the Automated Metering Infrastructure Project (No. 16-6460). Staff recommends approval of the appropriation adjustment for the remaining $25 million of water bond funds totaling $40 million along with the approval of the Capital Improvement Program amendments (Exhibit 1). Approval of the appropriation adjustment will fully fund the projects listed and allow for expedient project delivery. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION The Public Works Agency Water Resources Division operates and maintains the City’s water and sanitary sewer systems. The water system is comprised of approximately 480 miles of water main, 21 groundwater wells, seven pump stations, 10 reservoirs with a storage capacity of 49 million gallons, four pressure regulating stations, and seven connection points to Metropolitan Water District. The system has an average daily demand of 30 million gallons from its roughly 45,500 metered service connections. These water facilities require electric motors and controls to maintain a smooth-running system capable of meeting the community’s water demands. Additionally, the Public Works Agency’s Parks, Fleet, Facilities, and Refuse Division oversees City-owned facilities and parks that require general electrical repair and upgrades of lighting and motorized systems. Staff provides routine maintenance and repair of the water, park, and facility electric systems, including the replacement of miscellaneous electrical components. To support the operations and maintenance of these systems, City staff requires a wide range of electrical materials, supplies, and components.

(Agreement No. A-2025-XXX) GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION In November 2018, the City’s voters approved Measure X, a local sales tax add-on with a rate of 1.50%. The rate is set to decrease from 1.50% to 1.00% on April 1, 2029, decreasing the City’s revenue by as much as $30 million per year. The City will need to explore all available options to rebalance the budget. Options include reducing services, maximizing efficiencies, increasing fees, and asking the voters to preserve the local sales tax add-on rate at 1.50%. Staff recommends conducting a scientific baseline survey to enable the City Council to make sound, strategic decisions based upon data collected according to rigorous methodological standards. Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 25-105 was issued on August 6, 2025 on the City’s online bid management and publication system. A summary of vendor participation and results is as follows: 275 Vendors notified 0 Santa Ana vendors notified 23 Vendors downloaded the RFP packet 7 Proposals received 0 Proposals received from Santa Ana vendors City Council 11 – 1 11/4/2025 Scientific Polling Services November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 1 1 Proposals were solicited, opened on September 3, 2025, and evaluated. Five proposals were determined to be responsive to the specifications and met the City’s requirements. An evaluation committee reviewed and rated the proposals according to the criteria listed in the RFP. Staff recommends awarding an agreement to the highest-ranked firm, True North Research, Inc. (Exhibit 1). True North Research, Inc. has significant experience with a large number of California cities, a competitive price proposal for polling services, and the ability to provide a full range of services after the initial poll; including public communications, graphics, and writing a ballot measure. In Phase 1 of the project, True North Research, Inc. will design and implement a survey that produces valid and reliable measures of opinion from the voting population. Using a stratified and clustered random sampling methodology, True North Research, Inc. will recruit participation via email invitations, text invitations, and telephone calls. Survey data will be collected by telephone or online participation in English, Spanish, or Vietnamese. A sample size of 600 completed surveys will achieve a +/- 4% margin of error at the 95% confidence level. The proposed agreement allows for a sample size of up to 800 completed surveys to test two different finance mechanisms at a cost of $38,250. The results of the baseline survey will be presented to City Council. If the survey results are promising and the City Council chooses to move forward to Phase 2 of the project, the agreement allows for the following optional services: Consulting on measure preparation, strategy, and communications at a cost of up to $80,000 ($10,000 per month for up to 8 months); A tracking survey in summer 2026 at a cost of $31,500; and Preparation and mailing of a single multilingual educational piece to all 64,115 registered voter households at a cost of $48,500. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. FISCAL IMPACT Funding of $38,250 for the baseline survey is available in the current FY 2025-26 budget. If the City Council directs staff to move forward with Phase 2 activities with a cost of up to $160,000, staff may request an additional appropriation with the Midyear budget report.

The City desires to conduct a baseline survey to better understand the public’s perception of services and budget priorities,assess the likelihood of success of one or more revenue ballot measures,and understand voter response to a potential revenue ballot measure. The successful Consultant,at a minimum,must provide all instruments,equipment,tools,personnel, and supervision required to complete the statistically valid survey/polling services outlined below. PUBLIC OPINION SURVEY The selected Consultant will have the necessary experience to assist the City in conducting a survey to assess the feasibility and probability of a successful revenue ballot measure in an upcoming election. Work includes,but is not limited to: Review the City’s culture,local voter and resident demographics,results on past revenue/ballot measures and other data sources. Research local tax proposals that may compete with Santa Ana’s potential revenue measure. Provide an analysis and recommendations regarding the best election cycle for a potential revenue ballot measure,considering voter engagement,timing,and community priorities. Design a survey questionnaire in English,Spanish,and Vietnamese,and establish statistically valid sampling and survey methods to assess community support for revenue measures and their perception of the City’s services and budget priorities. Conduct statistically valid surveys/polls to gauge support for revenue measures,ensuring availability in English,Spanish,and Vietnamese. Recommend appropriate sample sizes to achieve 95%and 97%confidence levels. Surveying/polling results must include the following; Highlight community support for specific projects and services,and preferred revenue measures. Provide statistical data and recommendations on potential revenue measure(s). Measure the effectiveness of subsequent public education and outreach efforts. Gauge how support would change based on the rate and level of revenue generated. Draft and present a comprehensive final report detailing polling results,findings,limitations and challenges,and recommendations.The Consultant will develop and make presentations of the results to staff,council members,or other key stakeholders. a. b. c. d. e. f. g- I. IV. h. COMMUNICATIONS AND REPORTING The Consultant will meet with City staff for a kick-off meeting to discuss the project.Regular meetings will be held with staff as polling questions are developed and reports are prepared to discuss issues, concerns,and recommendations.The Consultant must provide regular updates on analysis, recommendations,and project milestones.

City Council 11 – 13 11/4/2025 CITY OF SANTA ANA BALLOT MEASURE DEVELOPMENT AND STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT If the City moves forward with the placement of a revenue measure on the November 2026 ballot,the scope of work includes assistance in developing the ballot measure,ordinance language,and public outreach.This includes review of City-developed information and education materials and identification of the most effective methods of information distribution for Santa Ana voters. The Consultant will assist with developing strategies and plans to inform and engage key internal stakeholder groups and influential external groups including elected leaders,business leaders.City leaders,community leaders,taxpayer groups,and others. City Council 11 – 14 11/4/2025 EXHIBIT B COMPENSATION Fee Proposal ineluding hourly rates if applicable City Council 11 – 15 11/4/2025 Cost Proposal For the City’s convenience,we have separated our proposed costs by phase. True North’s fixed-fee,not to exceed cost for conducting the baseline research (Phase 1)will be $32,500 assuming the survey is designed to test a single financial mechanism and employs a sample size of 600 completed interviews.If the City seeks to test two financial mechanisms,it will likely require a split-sample approach and larger sample size (800),in which case the cost for Phase 1 will be $38,250. If the Phase 1 survey results are promising and the City chooses to move forward with a revenue measure,the consulting costs for Phase 2 will have two components—a monthly fee of $1 0,000 for TeamCivX’s and Presidio’s consulting on measure preparation,strategy,coali tion building,and communications,and $31,500 for a tracking survey in summer 2026 to pro vide Council with up-to-date information prior to placing a measure on the ballot.Assuming an eight month engagement for Phase 2 Qanuary -August),the total consulting fees for Phase 2 will be $111,500. We will also recommend a separate budget for advertising,printing and production of informa tional materials.The cost to print and mail an informational brochure will depend on the struc ture and targeted audience.To prepare and mail a single multilingual piece to all 64,115 registered voter households in the City of Santa Ana will cost $48,500.If targeting a piece in a single language to appropriate households,the costs will be $31,000 for English-only house holds,$16,500 for Spanish language households,and $9,250 for Vietnamese language house holds.For budgeting purposes,most public agencies send two to three mailings per voter household during the ballot measure planning process.

City Council 11 – 19 11/4/2025 Community Development Agency www.santa-ana.org/cd Item # 12 City of Santa Ana 20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701 Staff Report November 4, 2025 TOPIC: First Amendment to Agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC AGENDA TITLE First Amendment to the Agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC for Digital Conversion and Document Imaging Services for the Housing Authority (Non- General Fund) RECOMMENDED ACTION Authorize the City Manager to execute a First Amendment that would allow the Housing Authority to increase the amount of the Agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC for digital conversion and document imaging services by $150,000, for a new total amount not to exceed $292,700 for the current contract term expiring December 31, 2026, and two remaining one-year extensions (Contingent upon approval of Housing Authority Item # 3) (Agreement No. A-2025-XXX). GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION On December 5, 2023, City Council authorized the City Manager and the Executive Director of the Santa Ana Housing Authority (“Housing Authority”) to execute an agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC (“Iron Mountain”) to provide offsite document storage of City of Santa Ana (“City”) and Housing Authority records in an amount not to exceed $142,700, for a three-year term beginning January 1, 2024 and expiring December 31, 2026 with an option of two one-year extensions (Exhibit 1). The purpose of this agreement is to ensure secure and compliant storage of records in accordance with the City’s Records Retention Schedule and applicable federal and state requirements. Specifically, Iron Mountain stores participant and applicant files for the Housing Authority, as well as other records and documents stored by the Finance and Management Services Agency (“FMSA”) and Community Development Agency (“CDA”). For the Housing Authority, Iron Mountain stores current and past applicant and participant records for a period of three years from the date of termination or denial of assistance. For FMSA and CDA, Iron Mountain stores various financial records and grant documents in accordance with the City’s Records Retention Schedule. City Council 12 – 1 11/4/2025 First Amendment to Agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 0 0 The Housing Authority now seeks approval for a First Amendment to this Agreement to include the digital conversion of existing paper records currently stored on-site in the Housing Authority’s offices (Exhibit 2). The cost of this additional service is $113,180, but staff is requesting to increase the annual amount of the Agreement by $150,000 in case there are unanticipated cost increases during the project. Converting approximately 1,650 physical files (representing about 732,600 pages) into searchable digital images will streamline records management and enhance the efficiency of the Housing Authority’s operations. The original Request for Proposals (RFP) for this Agreement issued on July 19, 2023, included the digital conversion of existing paper records under Page 19 of the RFP. Iron Mountain was awarded its Agreement with the City and Housing Authority due to its proposal to RFP #23-109A, in which Iron Mountain was selected due to its resources and expertise in digital conversion and document imaging services. Said services were part of Exhibit A to the Agreement and were included within the original scope of services. Currently, physical files and records are stored and accessed manually, which can cause delays and inefficiencies. Digitization will enable authorized staff to securely access files electronically, reducing delays associated with manual retrieval and improving customer service delivery for program participants and applicants. The additional $150,000 will be funded through Housing Authority funds. However, the City is also a signatory to the Agreement that includes both the City and Housing Authority. Therefore, the City Manager is required to execute the First Amendment together with the Executive Director of the Housing Authority. Under the proposed First Amendment, Iron Mountain will provide comprehensive digital conversion services including document preparation, scanning, quality assurance, indexing, and secure electronic delivery in accordance with the statement of work attached to the First Amendment as Exhibit A-1. Upon completion, the digitized records will be transferred to an encrypted storage device, and the original hard copy records will be stored at Iron Mountain’s secured facility pending authorization for destruction in compliance with the City’s retention policies. The reason for staff to recommend this First Amendment is because the Housing Authority does not have the administrative capacity to manually scan and digitize approximately 1,650 paper files. This task requires larger equipment and specialization. This project also supports the City’s long-term operational goals by reducing dependence on physical storage space. The repurposed file room space at the Housing Authority office on the first floor of City Hall will accommodate new staffing needs and provide capacity for a small conference area to improve collaboration and service coordination. Overall, the proposed amendment advances record accessibility, digital transformation, and operational efficiency within the Housing Authority’s administrative functions. Iron Mountain will safeguard personal client information throughout the digitization process. Iron Mountain adheres to stringent security protocols that comply with industry standards such as HIPAA and SOC 2. These protocols include secure access controls, City Council 12 – 2 11/4/2025 First Amendment to Agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC November 4, 2025 Page 3 5 4 0 0 date encryption, continuous system monitoring, and rigorous physical security at digitizing facilities. All personnel undergo background checks and receive ongoing training on privacy and data security. Documents are securely tracked during intake, processing, and return. These measures ensure that client information is protected from unauthorized access while enabling improved record accessibility through secure digital solutions. Iron Mountain was founded in 1951 and provides services to more than 225,000 customers around the world and hundreds of public sector agencies across the United States. Iron Mountain stores and protects billions of information assets, including business documents. Using modern technology and various checkpoint systems, Iron Mountain provides efficient and effective services to their customers. FISCAL IMPACT This agenda item appears on both the City Council and Housing Authority agendas because each body must approve its part of the agreement.

Garcia, Executive Director of Community Development Approved By: Alvaro Nuñez, City Manager City Council 12 – 3 11/4/2025 Community Development Agency www.santa-ana.org/community-development Item # 3 City of Santa Ana 20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701 Staff Report December 5, 2023 TOPIC: Agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC AGENDA TITLE Approve an Agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC for Document Storage for the Housing Authority, Community Development Agency and Finance & Management Services Agency (Non-General Fund) RECOMMENDED ACTION Authorize the Executive Director of the Housing Authority to execute an agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC to provide offsite document storage of Housing Authority records in an amount not to exceed $142,700, for a three-year term beginning January 1, 2024 and expiring December 31, 2026 with an option of two one- year extensions, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the Executive Director and the Housing Authority General Counsel (Contingent upon approval of City Council Item # 9) (Agreement No. 2023-XXX). GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION The Housing Authority of the City of Santa Ana (Housing Authority) is required to preserve Housing Choice Voucher Program applicant and participant records for a period of three years from the date of termination or denial of assistance. To comply with this requirement, the Housing Authority currently used Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC to store and archive files. The Housing Authority is unable to store the records in City Hall because of the volume of records, the lack of storage space, and the infrastructure required to store hundreds of confidential files. SAHA also does not have the administrative capacity to efficiently manage and maintain the records compared to an outside storage facility that will more efficiently manage the records. As required by the City of Santa Ana Records Retention Schedule, the Finance and Management Services Agency (FMSA) is also required to retain various records and documents for the periods stated within the policy. FMSA is unable to store the numerous records and documents at City Hall due to the lack of sufficient storage space and administrative capacity. Therefore, In order to comply with this requirement, FMSA utilizes an offsite storage facility that has the storage capacity, expertise, and resources to store, archive, retrieve, and destroy such records and documents. Exhibit 1 City Council 12 – 4 11/4/2025 Agreement with Iron Mountain, LLC December 5, 2023 Page 2 3 8 4 5 In addition, the Community Development Agency (CDA) is in need of a new offsite storage facility to store documents related to the former Redevelopment Agency, Enterprise and Empowerment Zone, Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, and other miscellaneous documents. To meet the offsite document storage needs for the Housing Authority, FMSA, and CDA, on July 19, 2023, staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP # 23-109A) for document storage and imaging services (Exhibit 1) for the Housing Authority, CDA, and FMSA. Responses to the RFP were accepted until August 10, 2023. The City received bids from Corodata and Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC Iron Mountain). The bids were reviewed by three staff from the Housing Authority and one staff from CDA. The review panel reviewed the two bids and Iron Mountain was selected based upon several factors including innovative technology for requesting files and shredding files and their experience and background in document storage. Iron Mountain was founded in 1951 and provides services to more than 225,000 customers around the world and hundreds of public sector agencies across the United States. Iron Mountain stores and protects billions of information assets, including business documents. Using modern technology and various checkpoint systems, Iron Mountain provides efficient and effective services to their customers. The three-year term of the agreement would begin on January 1, 2024 (Exhibit 2). FISCAL IMPACT Funds will be budgeted in the following fiscal years as follows, subject to change.

If the Historic Property is destroyed by earthquake, fire, flood or other natural disaster such that in the opinion of the City Building Official more than sixty (60) percent of the original fabric of the structure must be replaced, this Agreement shall be canceled immediately because, in effect, the historic value of the structure will have been destroyed. No fee shall be imposed in the case of destruction by acts of God or natural disaster. c.

ADDRESS 1412 North Louise Street CITY Santa Ana ZIP 92706 ORANGE COUNTY YEAR BUILT 1932 LOCAL REGISTER CATEGORY: Contributive HISTORIC DISTRICT N/A NEIGHBORHOOD Washington Square CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION C/3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 5S3 Location: Not for Publication Unrestricted Prehistoric Historic Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Tudor Revival The Tudor Revival looked to medieval England for its inspiration. Signature features of the style include steeply pitched gables; decorative half-timbering; arched openings, often Tudor or Gothic in form; asymmetrical arrangements of building features; tall brick chimneys; and picturesque windows of leaded glass or diamond patterned lights. The more ambitious examples of the Tudor Revival were executed in brick or even stone; however, stucco over wood frame is quite common in the forgiving climate of southern California. The Tudor Revival was favored primarily for residential buildings, although small scale commercial buildings in the style also occur. Originating in the late 19th century, the Tudor Revival was associated with some Craftsman era building but was most popular during the 1920s and 1930s. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The R. Miller House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of Tudor Revival-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it is a good example of the Tudor Revival style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood.

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) The R. Miller House is a single-family residence built in the Tudor Revival style (Figure 1). The residence is characterized by an irregular plan and a complex cross-gabled and flat roof with shingle cladding. The eaves have no overhang, except at the rear addition, where they are moderate with exposed rafter tails. The building’s exterior is sheathed in moderately rough stucco with false half-timbering at the façade gables. The primary (east) façade is characterized by an asymmetrical composition, consisting of two short gabled wings, flanking a recessed front porch. At the north end of the porch, the south- facing main entrance features a solid wood door and a period door knocker and other hardware. A carved beam supports the outer edge of the porch roof (Figure 2). Windows on the primary façade are historical and generally are of wood, multi-pane construction. The sole exception is the single-pane focal window situated in a pentagonal opening and framed with a molded surround evocative of stonework (Figure 3). The secondary and rear elevations (Figure 4) feature stucco cladding and a combination of double-hung wood-sash windows (Figure 5) on the original portion of the building and horizontally sliding wood-sash windows on the rear addition (Figure 6). A secondary entrance is located on the south elevation; the door there is accessed via a short set of straight concrete steps and sheltered by a pent porch roof with wood brace supports (Figure 7).

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1932 Property Type: Single-Family Residential 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 R. Miller House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Tudor Revival-style house in Santa Ana. The original building permit is dated March 9, 1932, and indicates the residence and garage were constructed by A.H. McClary for $4,000. The original permit did not include the original owner; however, a 1932 The Register article listed A.H. McClary as the owner of the property and Jasper Farney as the contractor (The Register 1932). Available evidence did not confirm McClary lived on the property. Farney was a contractor and real estate investor from the 1920s to the 1950s. He started as part of Honer, Herzig and Farney during the 1920s to 1930s but formed his own company in the 1940s to 1950s (The Register 1928a, Ancestry.com 2017). Farney designed and constructed single-family residences in the Tudor Revival style such as 1210 South Van Ness Avenue and 1137 South Garnsey Street (The Register 1928b). The first confirmed owner occupants of the property were Robert A. and Eda Miller and their son Ronald. The miller family lived at the property from circa 1935 to circa 1956 (Press-Telegram 1935, Ancestry. com 2011). The first confirmed owner occupant was Robert In 1939, a second permit indicates owner, Robert Miller, hired contactor, William Rohrbacher, to construct a new chimney for $145. Born in 1904 in Illinois, Miller was a real estate agent in Orange County from the 1940s into the 1960s (Ancestry.com 2022, The Register 1945, 1965). Eda Miller was born in 1906 in Sweden (Ancestry.com 2022). (See Continuation Sheet 3) B11. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) None *B12.

Description (continued): The detached garage is located southwest of the residence. It has a rectangular plan, gabled roof with asphalt shingle cladding, and stucco siding throughout. On the east façade, the glazed metal swing-up garage door faces a concrete driveway, which leads to east North Louise Street (Figure 8). On the north elevation there is a non-original suspended garage door and horizontally sliding aluminum framed window (Figure 9). The front yard is landscaped with a lawn and mature trees and shrubs. Low hedge rows trace the eastern property line and areas bordering the driveway and front porch. A knee-height brick wall delineates the property’s western boundary. *B10. Significance (continued): Though a name is not listed on the building permit, Mr. Miller likely constructed a recreation room in 1942 for $275. A newspaper article from 1946 listed Mrs. Everett Hunter as living at 1412 North Louise Street, though the Miller family lived at the property during this period (The Register 1946). Mrs. Everett was either a family friend or relative, or the newspaper made a mistake. In 1959, The Register listed a sale advertisement for the property, and 1412 North Louise Street was not listed in the 1960 Santa Ana City Directory (The Register 1959, Ancestry.com 2011). From 1962 to 1966, Robert T. Bailey and his wife Phyllida C. Bailey, lived at the property; however, no additional information was identified on the couple (The Register 1962, Ancestry.com 2017). Dated March 23, 1978, owner John Mullins filed for a permit to construct a 360 square foot addition to the garage for $2500. Mullins lived on the property until circa 2002 (Ancestry.com 2005). The R. Miller House is located in Washington Square, a neighborhood located northwest of the city center bounded by West Seventeenth Street on the north, West Civic Center Drive on the south, North Flower Street on the east, and North Bristol Street on the west. Most of this area was owned by the family of Jacob Ross, who had purchased portions of the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana in 1868 and 1869. Walnuts and other crops were grown in the area during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, with a few farmhouses, most notably the Ross-McNeal House at 1020 North Baker Street, dotting the landscape. By 1905, Baker and Towner were the only streets in the neighborhood, which extended from Hickey (now Civic Center) only as far as Washington and which contained only about a dozen homes. The status quo had not changed much by 1915, when a brick yard was located at the northern terminus of Olive Street at Hickey. In 1925, the beginning of the development that would convert this largely agricultural area into a middle class neighborhood of single-family homes over the next 25 years had begun. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, the Tudor Revival and Spanish Colonial Revival homes were the standard, with American Colonial Revival saltboxes and ranch style homes favored in the years before and after World War II. During the 1930s, many of the homes were built by local contractor Emmett Rogers, who sold lots and built homes according to standard plans, which individual property owners could customize to their tastes ("Washington Square: A Neighborhood of Pride," Washington Square Neighborhood Association). With the return of servicemen following the war and the accompanying demand for homes in southern California, the development of Washington Square was all but completed. The R. Miller House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of an Tudor Revival-style residence in Santa Ana. Located in Washington Square, the house cost $4,000 to build in 1932. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it is a good example of the Tudor Revival style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of the neighborhood (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). Character-defining features of the R. Miller House include: L-shaped plan; asymmetrical primary façade; cross-gabled and flat roof with moderate to high-pitch; minimal roof overhang; gable vents, moderately rough stucco siding and false timbering; external brick chimney; multi-pane, wood-sash windows; single-pane focal window situated in a pentagonal opening and framed with a molded surround evocative of stonework; tripartite focal window with central fixed pane and flanking multi-pane wood sashes; recessed, diamond-glazed window located adjacent to the front entrance and to the focal window; main entrance set within in a small gable and accessible by two curved concrete steps; and detached garage.

Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose. 2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when possible. 3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged. 4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment. These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this significance shall be recognized and respected. 5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity. 6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced, whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic, physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or structures. 7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken. 8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological resources affected by, or adjacent to any project. 9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant historical, architectural or cultural material, and such design is compatible with City Council 13 – 20 11/4/2025 MILLS ACT AGREEMENT 1412 North Louise Street Santa Ana, CA 92706 - 2 - size, scale, color, material and character of the property, neighborhood, or environment. 10.

Miller House (1412 N. Louise Street) RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. Adopt a resolution approving Historic Resources Commission Application No. 2024- 10 and Historic Register Categorization No. 2025-07; and 2. Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute the attached Mills Act agreement with Ricardo Diaz and Rebeca Diaz, Husband and Wife as Joint Tenants, for the property located at 1412 N. Louise Street, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Ricardo and Rebeca Diaz are requesting approval to designate an existing Tudor Revival- style residence located at 1412 N. Louise Street to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties, as well as approval to execute a Mills Act agreement with the City of Santa Ana. The property qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Tudor 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 Tudor Revival style, including, but not limited to, its asymmetrical primary façade, cross-gabled roof, moderately rough stucco siding, and wood-sash windows in various configurations. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located on a rectangular lot with North Louise Street to the east and adjacent private properties to the north, south, and west, in the Washington Square neighborhood in Santa Ana. The site contains a 1,672-square-foot, Tudor Revival-style residence and detached garage on a 7,195-square-foot residential lot (Exhibit 3). City Council 13 – 23 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2024-10, HRC No. 2025-07, and HPPA No. 2025-09 – The R. Miller House (1412 N. Louise Street) September 23, 2025 Page 2 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 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 SAMC (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 93 years old and is a sound example of period architecture. No known code violations exist on record for this property. The R. Miller House is architecturally significant as an example of a Tudor Revival-style house. The original building permit is dated March 9, 1932, and indicates the residence and garage were constructed by A.H. McClary for $4,000. The original permit did not include the original owner; however, a 1932 The Register article listed A.H. McClary as the owner of the property and Jasper Farney as the contractor (The Register 1932). Available evidence did not confirm McClary lived on the property. Farney was a contractor and real estate investor from the 1920s to the 1950s. He started as part of Honer, Herzig and Farney during the 1920s to 1930s but formed his own company in the 1940s to 1950s (The Register 1928a, Ancestry.com 2017). Farney designed and constructed single- family residences in the Tudor Revival style such as 1210 S. Van Ness Avenue and 1137 S. Garnsey Street (The Register 1928b). In 1939, a second permit indicates owner, Robert Miller, hired contactor, William Rohrbacher, to construct a new chimney for $145. Robert A. Miller and his wife Eda and their son Ronald lived at the property from 1935 to circa 1956 (Press-Telegram 1935, Ancestry. com 2011). Born in 1904 in Illinois, Miller was a real estate agent in Orange County from the 1940s into the 1960s (Ancestry.com 2022, The Register 1945 and 1965). Eda Miller was born in 1906 in Sweden (Ancestry.com 2022). Though a name is not listed on the building permit, Mr. Miller likely constructed a recreation room in 1942 for $275. A newspaper article from 1946 listed Mrs. Everett Hunter as living at 1412 N. Louise Street, though the Miller family lived at the property during this period (The Register 1946). Mrs. Everett was either a family friend or relative, or the newspaper made a mistake. In 1959, The Register listed a sale advertisement for City Council 13 – 24 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2024-10, HRC No. 2025-07, and HPPA No. 2025-09 – The R. Miller House (1412 N. Louise Street) September 23, 2025 Page 3 the property, and 1412 N. Louise Street was not listed in the 1960 Santa Ana City Directory (The Register 1959, Ancestry.com 2011). From 1962 to 1966, Robert T. Bailey and his wife Phyllida C. Bailey, lived at the property; however, no additional information was identified on the couple (The Register 1962, Ancestry.com 2017). Dated March 23, 1978, owner John Mullins filed for a permit to construct a 360-square-foot addition to the garage for $2500. Mullins lived on the property until circa 2002 (Ancestry.com 2005). The R. Miller House is a single-family residence built in the Tudor Revival style. The residence is characterized by an irregular plan and a complex cross-gabled and flat roof with shingle cladding. The eaves generally have no overhang, but in select locations they are moderate with exposed rafter tails. The building’s exterior is sheathed in moderately rough stucco with false half-timbering at the façade gables. The primary (east) façade is characterized by an asymmetrical composition, consisting of two short gabled wings, flanking a recessed front porch. At the north end of the porch, the south-facing main entrance features a solid wood door and a period door knocker and other hardware. A carved beam supports the outer edge of the porch roof. Windows on the primary façade are historical and generally are of wood, multi-pane construction. The sole exception is the single-pane focal window situated in a pentagonal opening and framed with a molded surround evocative of stonework. The secondary and rear elevations feature stucco cladding and a combination of double-hung wood-sash windows on the original portion of the building and horizontally sliding wood-sash windows on the rear addition. A secondary entrance is located on the south elevation; the door there is accessed via a short set of straight concrete steps and sheltered by a pent porch roof with wood brace supports. The detached garage is located southwest of the residence. It has a rectangular plan, gabled roof with asphalt shingle cladding, and stucco siding throughout. On the east façade, the glazed metal garage door faces a concrete driveway, which leads to east North Louise Street. On the north elevation there is a non-original suspended garage door and horizontally sliding aluminum framed window. The front yard is landscaped with a lawn and mature trees and shrubs. Low hedge rows trace the eastern property line and areas bordering the driveway and front porch. A knee-height brick wall delineates the property’s western boundary. Character-defining features of the R. Miller House include: L-shaped plan; asymmetrical primary façade; cross-gabled and flat roof with moderate to high-pitch; minimal roof overhang; gable vents, moderately rough stucco siding and false timbering; external brick chimney; multi-pane, wood-sash windows; single-pane focal window situated in a pentagonal opening and framed with a molded surround evocative of stonework; tripartite focal window with central fixed pane and flanking multi-pane wood sashes; recessed, diamond-glazed window located adjacent to the front entrance and to the focal window; main entrance set within in a small gable and accessible by two curved concrete steps; and detached garage.

Miller House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Tudor Revival-style residence in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is Contributive because it is a good example of the Tudor Revival style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of the neighborhood (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). Mills Act Agreement 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 (Exhibit 2). To be eligible for the Mills Act, the property must be listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The Historic Resources Commission Application and Historic Register Categorization actions proposed for this site authorize the listing of the property on the local register. 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 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 • A mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation • Incentives for potential buyers to purchase historic structures • Discouraging inappropriate alterations to the property The property has no identified unauthorized modifications. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement subject to a completion of future improvements as described in an attached Work Plan. Overall, future improvements (Work Plan) proposed by the homeowner during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include the following: new roof and general maintenance. Staff suggests adding the following items to the Work Plan: 1) address discoloration on planter wall adjacent to the primary façade; 2) assess condition of paint and stucco and repair as necessary, subject to staff approval; 3) replace non-compatible window and door on north side of detached garage, subject to staff approval; 4) assess condition of roofing, eaves, fascia, exposed rafter tails, and rain gutters throughout the residence and repair and replace in-kind, as necessary, subject to staff approval; and 5) assess all historic windows and window framing and repaint, repair, or replace in-kind, as necessary. Window repair and replacement is subject to staff approval. Staff will ensure that the proposed work will be done sensitively and will maintain the property’s character- defining features as part of the Mills Act Agreement for this property. City Council 13 – 26 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2024-10, HRC No. 2025-07, and HPPA No. 2025-09 – The R. Miller House (1412 N. Louise Street) September 23, 2025 Page 5 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. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement to enable the Mills Act. Public Notification The subject site is located within the Washington Square Neighborhood Association.

ADDRESS 1412 North Louise Street CITY Santa Ana ZIP 92706 ORANGE COUNTY YEAR BUILT 1932 LOCAL REGISTER CATEGORY: Contributive HISTORIC DISTRICT N/A NEIGHBORHOOD Washington Square CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION C/3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 5S3 Location: Not for Publication Unrestricted Prehistoric Historic Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Tudor Revival The Tudor Revival looked to medieval England for its inspiration. Signature features of the style include steeply pitched gables; decorative half-timbering; arched openings, often Tudor or Gothic in form; asymmetrical arrangements of building features; tall brick chimneys; and picturesque windows of leaded glass or diamond patterned lights. The more ambitious examples of the Tudor Revival were executed in brick or even stone; however, stucco over wood frame is quite common in the forgiving climate of southern California. The Tudor Revival was favored primarily for residential buildings, although small scale commercial buildings in the style also occur. Originating in the late 19th century, the Tudor Revival was associated with some Craftsman era building but was most popular during the 1920s and 1930s. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The R. Miller House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of Tudor Revival-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it is a good example of the Tudor Revival style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood.

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) The R. Miller House is a single-family residence built in the Tudor Revival style (Figure 1). The residence is characterized by an irregular plan and a complex cross-gabled and flat roof with shingle cladding. The eaves have no overhang, except at the rear addition, where they are moderate with exposed rafter tails. The building’s exterior is sheathed in moderately rough stucco with false half-timbering at the façade gables. The primary (east) façade is characterized by an asymmetrical composition, consisting of two short gabled wings, flanking a recessed front porch. At the north end of the porch, the south- facing main entrance features a solid wood door and a period door knocker and other hardware. A carved beam supports the outer edge of the porch roof (Figure 2). Windows on the primary façade are historical and generally are of wood, multi-pane construction. The sole exception is the single-pane focal window situated in a pentagonal opening and framed with a molded surround evocative of stonework (Figure 3). The secondary and rear elevations (Figure 4) feature stucco cladding and a combination of double-hung wood-sash windows (Figure 5) on the original portion of the building and horizontally sliding wood-sash windows on the rear addition (Figure 6). A secondary entrance is located on the south elevation; the door there is accessed via a short set of straight concrete steps and sheltered by a pent porch roof with wood brace supports (Figure 7).

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1932 Property Type: Single-Family Residential 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 R. Miller House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Tudor Revival-style house in Santa Ana. The original building permit is dated March 9, 1932, and indicates the residence and garage were constructed by A.H. McClary for $4,000. The original permit did not include the original owner; however, a 1932 The Register article listed A.H. McClary as the owner of the property and Jasper Farney as the contractor (The Register 1932). Available evidence did not confirm McClary lived on the property. Farney was a contractor and real estate investor from the 1920s to the 1950s. He started as part of Honer, Herzig and Farney during the 1920s to 1930s but formed his own company in the 1940s to 1950s (The Register 1928a, Ancestry.com 2017). Farney designed and constructed single-family residences in the Tudor Revival style such as 1210 South Van Ness Avenue and 1137 South Garnsey Street (The Register 1928b). The first confirmed owner occupants of the property were Robert A. and Eda Miller and their son Ronald. The miller family lived at the property from circa 1935 to circa 1956 (Press-Telegram 1935, Ancestry. com 2011). The first confirmed owner occupant was Robert In 1939, a second permit indicates owner, Robert Miller, hired contactor, William Rohrbacher, to construct a new chimney for $145. Born in 1904 in Illinois, Miller was a real estate agent in Orange County from the 1940s into the 1960s (Ancestry.com 2022, The Register 1945, 1965). Eda Miller was born in 1906 in Sweden (Ancestry.com 2022). (See Continuation Sheet 3) B11. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) None *B12.

Description (continued): The detached garage is located southwest of the residence. It has a rectangular plan, gabled roof with asphalt shingle cladding, and stucco siding throughout. On the east façade, the glazed metal swing-up garage door faces a concrete driveway, which leads to east North Louise Street (Figure 8). On the north elevation there is a non-original suspended garage door and horizontally sliding aluminum framed window (Figure 9). The front yard is landscaped with a lawn and mature trees and shrubs. Low hedge rows trace the eastern property line and areas bordering the driveway and front porch. A knee-height brick wall delineates the property’s western boundary. *B10. Significance (continued): Though a name is not listed on the building permit, Mr. Miller likely constructed a recreation room in 1942 for $275. A newspaper article from 1946 listed Mrs. Everett Hunter as living at 1412 North Louise Street, though the Miller family lived at the property during this period (The Register 1946). Mrs. Everett was either a family friend or relative, or the newspaper made a mistake. In 1959, The Register listed a sale advertisement for the property, and 1412 North Louise Street was not listed in the 1960 Santa Ana City Directory (The Register 1959, Ancestry.com 2011). From 1962 to 1966, Robert T. Bailey and his wife Phyllida C. Bailey, lived at the property; however, no additional information was identified on the couple (The Register 1962, Ancestry.com 2017). Dated March 23, 1978, owner John Mullins filed for a permit to construct a 360 square foot addition to the garage for $2500. Mullins lived on the property until circa 2002 (Ancestry.com 2005). The R. Miller House is located in Washington Square, a neighborhood located northwest of the city center bounded by West Seventeenth Street on the north, West Civic Center Drive on the south, North Flower Street on the east, and North Bristol Street on the west. Most of this area was owned by the family of Jacob Ross, who had purchased portions of the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana in 1868 and 1869. Walnuts and other crops were grown in the area during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, with a few farmhouses, most notably the Ross-McNeal House at 1020 North Baker Street, dotting the landscape. By 1905, Baker and Towner were the only streets in the neighborhood, which extended from Hickey (now Civic Center) only as far as Washington and which contained only about a dozen homes. The status quo had not changed much by 1915, when a brick yard was located at the northern terminus of Olive Street at Hickey. In 1925, the beginning of the development that would convert this largely agricultural area into a middle class neighborhood of single-family homes over the next 25 years had begun. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, the Tudor Revival and Spanish Colonial Revival homes were the standard, with American Colonial Revival saltboxes and ranch style homes favored in the years before and after World War II. During the 1930s, many of the homes were built by local contractor Emmett Rogers, who sold lots and built homes according to standard plans, which individual property owners could customize to their tastes ("Washington Square: A Neighborhood of Pride," Washington Square Neighborhood Association). With the return of servicemen following the war and the accompanying demand for homes in southern California, the development of Washington Square was all but completed. The R. Miller House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of an Tudor Revival-style residence in Santa Ana. Located in Washington Square, the house cost $4,000 to build in 1932. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it is a good example of the Tudor Revival style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of the neighborhood (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). Character-defining features of the R. Miller House include: L-shaped plan; asymmetrical primary façade; cross-gabled and flat roof with moderate to high-pitch; minimal roof overhang; gable vents, moderately rough stucco siding and false timbering; external brick chimney; multi-pane, wood-sash windows; single-pane focal window situated in a pentagonal opening and framed with a molded surround evocative of stonework; tripartite focal window with central fixed pane and flanking multi-pane wood sashes; recessed, diamond-glazed window located adjacent to the front entrance and to the focal window; main entrance set within in a small gable and accessible by two curved concrete steps; and detached garage.

Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose. 2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when possible. 3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged. 4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment. These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this significance shall be recognized and respected. 5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity. 6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced, whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic, physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or structures. 7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken. 8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological resources affected by, or adjacent to any project. 9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant historical, architectural or cultural material, and such design is compatible with City Council 13 – 50 11/4/2025 MILLS ACT AGREEMENT 1412 North Louise Street Santa Ana, CA 92706 - 2 - size, scale, color, material and character of the property, neighborhood, or environment. 10.

Cancellation. a. The City, following a duly noticed public hearing by the City Council as set forth in Government Code Section 50280, et. seq., may cancel this Agreement if it determines that the Owner have breached any of the conditions of this Agreement, or has allowed the property to deteriorate to the point that it no longer meets the standards for a qualified Historic Property, or if the City determines that the Owner have failed to restore or rehabilitate the property in the manner specified in Section 3 of this Agreement.

If the Historic Property is destroyed by earthquake, fire, flood or other natural disaster such that in the opinion of the City Building Official more than sixty (60) percent of the original fabric of the structure must be replaced, this Agreement shall be canceled immediately because, in effect, the historic value of the structure will have been destroyed.

City Council 13 – 62 11/4/2025 MILLS ACT AGREEMENT 2402 North Riverside Drive Santa Ana, CA 92706 - 5 - b. City does not waive any claim of default by the Owner if City does not enforce or cancel this Agreement.

ADDRESS 2402 North Riverside Drive CITY Santa Ana ZIP 92706 ORANGE COUNTY YEAR BUILT 1951 LOCAL REGISTER CATEGORY: Contributive HISTORIC DISTRICT Floral Park NEIGHBORHOOD Floral Park CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION C/3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 5S3 Location: Not for Publication Unrestricted Prehistoric Historic Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Contemporary Modern The Contemporary Modern style emerged in the early post-World War II period as a popular application of architectural modernism to residental properties. At its emergence in the 1940s, the style was notable for its lack of ornament, relatively large building footprints, and open floorplans. In addition, a key to the style’s popularity was its integration of outdoor and indoor spaces, echoing common practices in residential architecture in Japan, Greece, and China, among other places, where private courts were a common element of residential planning. The popularity of the indoor-outdoor concept after World War II may have resulted from the exposure of American GIs to East Asian architecture during the war. Although the Contemporary Modern style was much less common in postwar residential subdivions than the Ranch house, it was an important feature of the residentail architectural landscape in the 1950s and 1960s. In California, the style’s most notable proponent was developer Joseph Eichler, who built more than 10,000 Contemporary Modern homes in stylistically cohesive developments throughout the state. Residential variants of the Contemporary Modern style are characterized by their roof forms, most commonly gabled, butterfly, and slant. A common set of character-defining features applies to most examples, whatever the variant. These include plans with one or more private court, often covered; generous use of windows, with especially large windows overlooking key locations at the rear of the property; recesedexterior doors to promote privacy; carports; grilles; exposed post-and-beam construction; and a general lack of ornament. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The H.A. Petersen House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Contemporary Modern-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it is a good example of the style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood.

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1951 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 H.A. Petersen House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Contemporary Modern-style house in Santa Ana. The property is currently a contributor to the Floral Park Historic District which is roughly bounded by Santiago Creek, 17th Street, Broadway, and Flower Street. The district includes 576 contributing buildings and 97 non-contributing buildings that are single-family or multi-family residential. Assessor data indicates the property was built in 1951 by contractor Douglas W. Edwards for $15,000. The six-room residence and garage were constructed for Homer A. Petersen. Homer Petersen and his wife Grace are listed in the 1954 Santa Ana City Directory, and Petersen was listed as an internal revenue agent (Ancestry.com 2011a). The Petersen family owned and occupied 2402 North Riverside Drive until Dr. Paul Lambert and his wife Jean L. Lambert purchased the property in 1955 (The Register 1955). Dr. Lambert was a physician and general practitioner in Santa Ana and served in the Korean War. According to city building permits, in 1956, Anthony Bros Inc. constructed a swimming pool for Paul Lambert, though the property does not currently have a swimming pool and black and white aerials make it difficult to confirm a swimming pool was constructed in the narrow backyard.

Description (continued): The east elevation faces North Benton Way and features an exterior brick chimney, four wood-frame horizontal sliding sash or double-hung windows, and an aluminum vertical sliding window. At the southern end of the east elevation is an attached garage with a non-historic aluminum roll-up door. Secondary façades on the south, west, and east have a large wood-frame, 21 pane fixed window, three wood-framed sliding glass doors and screens, and two secondary entrances with glazed wood paneled doors (Figures 5 and 6). The secondary, rear facades are shaded by exposed roof beams that extend from the west side of the roof slope (Figure 7). A small shed of modern fabrication is located at the rear of the property. Landscaping on the property consists of a lawn north and east of the residence, palms and ornamental plants in the brick planter beds on north and east sides of the house, and a mature tree and various plantings in the back yard. *B10. Significance (continued): According to a newspaper article from 1958, the pool was used as a model pool for Anthony Bros. Inc. (The Register 1958). The Lambert family lived at the property until 1960 (Ancestry.com 2011b). Between 1964 and 1968, Mary Ann and Matthew A. Brown occupied 2402 North Riverside Drive; Mr. Brown was the owner of the Santa Ana Book Store and Mrs. Brown worked for the Santa Ana recreational program (The Register 1964). The H.A. Petersen House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of orange, avocado, and walnut trees and widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). “Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land. And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana” (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). The parcel chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. “When built in the 1920s, the Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each” (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and 1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival. The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War II, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue. In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral Park. An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell’s own large, Colonial Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In 1937, Roy Rodney Russell, joined his father’s firm and by 1945 it was renamed as Roy Russell and Son. In the early post World War II years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous, smaller, single-family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style. In the 1950s, low, horizontal Ranch Style houses completed the growth of Floral Park. Today (2023) Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens. The H. A. Petersen House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Contemporary Modern-style house in Santa Ana. Located in Floral Park, the house was constructed in 1951. 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 Contemporary Modern-style exhibited by the house include: its one-story, low-to-the-ground horizontal massing; low-pitched cross-hipped roof with overhanging eaves; stucco and vertical wood lap wall cladding; floor-to-ceiling glass block side lite; wood sash windows, including horizontal sliding and 21-pane fixed configurations; extended beam shade feature; flush wood door with original mail slot and handle; and exterior brick chimney. *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. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken. 8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological resources affected by, or adjacent to any project. 9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant historical, architectural or cultural material, and such design is compatible with City Council 13 – 75 11/4/2025 MILLS ACT AGREEMENT 2402 North Riverside Drive Santa Ana, CA 92706 - 2 - size, scale, color, material and character of the property, neighborhood, or environment. 10. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be done in such a manner that if such additions or alterations need to be removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the structure would be unimpaired.

Petersen House (2402 N. Riverside Drive) RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. Adopt a resolution approving Historic Resources Commission Application No. 2025- 12 and Historic Register Categorization No. 2025-8; and 2. Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute the attached Mills Act agreement with Steven and Joelle Meese, for the property located at 2402 N. Riverside Drive, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Steven and Joelle Meese are requesting approval to designate an existing Contemporary Modern-style residence located at 2402 N. Riverside Drive to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties, as well as approval to execute a Mills Act agreement with the City of Santa Ana. The property, which is a contributing property to the Floral Park National Register Historic District, qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Contemporary Modern-style house. It is worthy of “Contributive” categorization as it has a distinctive architectural style and quality reflective of the Contemporary Modern style, including its low-to-the-ground massing, cross-hipped roof, and wood-sash windows in multiple configurations, among other features. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located on a corner lot with North Benton Way to the east and North Riverside Drive to the north, in the Floral Park neighborhood in Santa Ana. The site contains a 1,696-square-foot, Contemporary Modern-style residence and attached garage on an approximately 7,800-square-foot residential lot (Exhibits 3 and 4). City Council 13 – 78 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2025-12, HRC No. 2025-08, HPPA No. 2025-07– The H.A. Petersen House (2402 N. Riverside Drive) September 23, 2025 Page 2 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 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 SAMC (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 SAMC, as the structure is 74 years old and is a sound example of period architecture. No known code violations exist on record for this property. The H.A. Petersen House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Contemporary Modern-style house in Santa Ana. Assessor data indicates it was built in 1951 by contractor Douglas W. Edwards for $15,000. The six-room residence and garage were constructed for Homer A. Petersen. Homer Petersen and his wife Grace are listed in the 1954 Santa Ana City Directory, and Petersen was listed as an internal revenue agent (Ancestry.com 2017). The Petersen family owned and occupied 2402 N. Riverside Drive until 1955 when Dr. Paul Lambert and his wife Jean L. Lambert purchased the property in 1955 (The Register 1955). Dr. Lambert was a physician and general practitioner in Santa Ana and served in the Korean War. According to city building permits, in 1956, Anthony Bros Inc. constructed a swimming pool for Paul Lambert, though the property does not currently have a swimming pool and black and white aerials make it difficult to see a swimming pool in the narrow backyard. According to a newspaper article from 1958, the pool was used as a model pool for Anthony Bros. Inc. (The Register 1958). The Lambert family lived at the property until 1960 (Ancestry.com 2017). Between 1964 and 1968, Mary Ann and Matthew A. Brown occupied 2402 N. Riverside Drive; Mr. Brown was the owner of the Santa Ana Book Store and Mrs. Brown worked for the Santa Ana recreational program (The Register 1964). In 2023, the property was added to the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing property to the Floral Park National Register Historic District. Located on a corner parcel in the Floral Park neighborhood, the H.A. Petersen House consists of a one-story, single-family residence and attached garage constructed in the City Council 13 – 79 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2025-12, HRC No. 2025-08, HPPA No. 2025-07– The H.A. Petersen House (2402 N. Riverside Drive) September 23, 2025 Page 3 Contemporary Modern style. The parcel is bound east by North Benton Way and north by North Riverside Drive. The residence is irregular in plan with exterior walls sheathed in stucco and a narrow section of vertical wood lap siding on the upper half of the north and east facades. The residence is capped by a low-pitched cross-hipped roof clad in composite shingles with overhanging eaves. The asymmetrical main façade has a recessed entry with a floor-to-ceiling glass block window and flush wood door accessed by brick steps. Windows on the north elevation are wood sliding sash units with aluminum- framed screens. Other notable primary-façade elements include brick lining around planter bed. The east elevation faces North Benton Way and features an exterior brick chimney, four wood-frame horizontal sliding sash or double-hung windows, and an aluminum vertical sliding window. At the southern end of the east elevation is an attached garage with a non-historic aluminum roll-up door. Secondary façades on the south, west, and east have a large wood-frame, 21 pane fixed window, three wood-framed sliding glass doors and screens, and two secondary entrances with glazed wood paneled doors. The secondary, rear facades are shaded by an exposed roof beams that extend from the west side of the roof slope. A small shed of modern fabrication is located at the rear of the property. Landscaping on the property consists of a lawn north and east of the residence, palms and ornamental plants in the brick planter beds on north and east sides of the house, and a mature tree and various plantings in the back yard. Character-defining features of the Contemporary Modern style exhibited by the house include: its one-story, low-to-the-ground horizontal massing; low-pitched cross-hipped roof with overhanging eaves; stucco and vertical wood lap wall cladding; floor-to-ceiling glass block side lite; wood sash windows, including horizontal sliding and 21-pane fixed configurations; extended beam shade feature; flush wood door with original mail slot and handle; and exterior brick chimney. The H.A. Petersen House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Contemporary Modern style home in Santa Ana. 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. Mills Act Agreement 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 (Exhibit 2). To be eligible for the Mills Act, the property must be listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The Historic Resources Commission Application and Historic Register Categorization actions proposed for this site authorize the listing of the property on the local register. 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 City Council 13 – 80 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2025-12, HRC No. 2025-08, HPPA No. 2025-07– The H.A. Petersen House (2402 N. Riverside Drive) September 23, 2025 Page 4 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 • A mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation • Incentives for potential buyers to purchase historic structures • Discouraging inappropriate alterations to the property The property has no identified unauthorized modifications. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement subject to a completion of future improvements as described in an attached Work Plan. Overall, future improvements (Work Plan) proposed by the homeowner during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include the following: 1) replacing missing horizontal upper window frame member at east façade, using the design of the similar adjacent window as a model; 2) repainting the fence around the recreational vehicle enclosure in a color appropriate to the style and period of construction of the property, subject to Planning Division staff approval; 3) assessing the condition of all windows, including frames and sashes, and repairing or replacing in-kind, as necessary and subject to Planning Division staff approval; 4) assessing the condition of the roof, roof cladding, eaves, exposed rafters, and fascia and repairing or replacing in-kind, as necessary and subject to Planning Division staff approval; and 5) assessing paint and stucco throughout the residence and repairing or replacing, as necessary and subject to Planning Division staff approval. 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. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement to enable the Mills Act.

Cancellation. a. The City, following a duly noticed public hearing by the City Council as set forth in Government Code Section 50280, et. seq., may cancel this Agreement if it determines that the Owner have breached any of the conditions of this Agreement, or has allowed the property to deteriorate to the point that it no longer meets the standards for a qualified Historic Property, or if the City determines that the Owner have failed to restore or rehabilitate the property in the manner specified in Section 3 of this Agreement. If a contract is cancelled for these reasons, the Owner shall pay a cancellation fee to the County Auditor as set forth in Government Code Section 50286. This cancellation fee shall be a percentage (currently set at twelve and one-half (12 ½) percent by Government Code Section 50286) of the current fair market value of the property at the time of the cancellation, as determined by the county assessor, without regard to any restriction imposed pursuant to this Agreement. b. If the Historic Property is destroyed by earthquake, fire, flood or other natural disaster such that in the opinion of the City Building Official more than sixty (60) percent of the original fabric of the structure must be replaced, this Agreement shall be canceled immediately because, in effect, the historic value of the structure will have been destroyed. No fee shall be imposed in the case of destruction by acts of God or natural disaster. c. If the Historic Property is acquired by eminent domain and the City Council determines that the acquisition frustrates the purpose of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be cancelled and no fee imposed, as specified in Government Code Section 50288. 6. Enforcement of Agreement. a. In lieu of and/or in addition to any provisions to cancel the Agreement as referenced herein, City may specifically enforce, or enjoin the breach of, the terms of the Agreement. In the event of a default, under the provisions to cancel the Agreement by Owner, the City shall give written notice to Owner by registered or certified mail, and if such a violation is not corrected to the reasonable satisfaction of the City Manager or designee within thirty (30) days thereafter, or if not corrected within such a reasonable time as may be required to cure the breach or default, or default cannot be cured within thirty (30) days (provided that acts to cure the breach or default may be commenced within thirty (30) days and shall thereafter be diligently pursued to completion by Owner), then City may, without further notice, declare a default under the terms of this Agreement and may bring any action necessary to specifically enforce the obligations of Owner growing out of the terms of this Agreement, apply to any court, state or federal, for injunctive relief against any violation by Owner or apply for such relief as may be appropriate.

ADDRESS 2402 North Riverside Drive CITY Santa Ana ZIP 92706 ORANGE COUNTY YEAR BUILT 1951 LOCAL REGISTER CATEGORY: Contributive HISTORIC DISTRICT Floral Park NEIGHBORHOOD Floral Park CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION C/3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 5S3 Location: Not for Publication Unrestricted Prehistoric Historic Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Contemporary Modern The Contemporary Modern style emerged in the early post-World War II period as a popular application of architectural modernism to residental properties. At its emergence in the 1940s, the style was notable for its lack of ornament, relatively large building footprints, and open floorplans. In addition, a key to the style’s popularity was its integration of outdoor and indoor spaces, echoing common practices in residential architecture in Japan, Greece, and China, among other places, where private courts were a common element of residential planning. The popularity of the indoor-outdoor concept after World War II may have resulted from the exposure of American GIs to East Asian architecture during the war. Although the Contemporary Modern style was much less common in postwar residential subdivions than the Ranch house, it was an important feature of the residentail architectural landscape in the 1950s and 1960s. In California, the style’s most notable proponent was developer Joseph Eichler, who built more than 10,000 Contemporary Modern homes in stylistically cohesive developments throughout the state. Residential variants of the Contemporary Modern style are characterized by their roof forms, most commonly gabled, butterfly, and slant. A common set of character-defining features applies to most examples, whatever the variant. These include plans with one or more private court, often covered; generous use of windows, with especially large windows overlooking key locations at the rear of the property; recesedexterior doors to promote privacy; carports; grilles; exposed post-and-beam construction; and a general lack of ornament. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The H.A. Petersen House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Contemporary Modern-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it is a good example of the style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood. (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3).

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1951 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 H.A. Petersen House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Contemporary Modern-style house in Santa Ana. The property is currently a contributor to the Floral Park Historic District which is roughly bounded by Santiago Creek, 17th Street, Broadway, and Flower Street. The district includes 576 contributing buildings and 97 non-contributing buildings that are single-family or multi-family residential. Assessor data indicates the property was built in 1951 by contractor Douglas W. Edwards for $15,000. The six-room residence and garage were constructed for Homer A. Petersen. Homer Petersen and his wife Grace are listed in the 1954 Santa Ana City Directory, and Petersen was listed as an internal revenue agent (Ancestry.com 2011a). The Petersen family owned and occupied 2402 North Riverside Drive until Dr. Paul Lambert and his wife Jean L. Lambert purchased the property in 1955 (The Register 1955). Dr. Lambert was a physician and general practitioner in Santa Ana and served in the Korean War. According to city building permits, in 1956, Anthony Bros Inc. constructed a swimming pool for Paul Lambert, though the property does not currently have a swimming pool and black and white aerials make it difficult to confirm a swimming pool was constructed in the narrow backyard.

Description (continued): The east elevation faces North Benton Way and features an exterior brick chimney, four wood-frame horizontal sliding sash or double-hung windows, and an aluminum vertical sliding window. At the southern end of the east elevation is an attached garage with a non-historic aluminum roll-up door. Secondary façades on the south, west, and east have a large wood-frame, 21 pane fixed window, three wood-framed sliding glass doors and screens, and two secondary entrances with glazed wood paneled doors (Figures 5 and 6). The secondary, rear facades are shaded by exposed roof beams that extend from the west side of the roof slope (Figure 7). A small shed of modern fabrication is located at the rear of the property. Landscaping on the property consists of a lawn north and east of the residence, palms and ornamental plants in the brick planter beds on north and east sides of the house, and a mature tree and various plantings in the back yard. *B10. Significance (continued): According to a newspaper article from 1958, the pool was used as a model pool for Anthony Bros. Inc. (The Register 1958). The Lambert family lived at the property until 1960 (Ancestry.com 2011b). Between 1964 and 1968, Mary Ann and Matthew A. Brown occupied 2402 North Riverside Drive; Mr. Brown was the owner of the Santa Ana Book Store and Mrs. Brown worked for the Santa Ana recreational program (The Register 1964). The H.A. Petersen House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of orange, avocado, and walnut trees and widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). “Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land. And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana” (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). The parcel chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. “When built in the 1920s, the Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each” (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and 1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival. The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War II, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue. In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral Park. An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell’s own large, Colonial Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In 1937, Roy Rodney Russell, joined his father’s firm and by 1945 it was renamed as Roy Russell and Son. In the early post World War II years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous, smaller, single-family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style. In the 1950s, low, horizontal Ranch Style houses completed the growth of Floral Park. Today (2023) Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens. The H. A. Petersen House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Contemporary Modern-style house in Santa Ana. Located in Floral Park, the house was constructed in 1951. 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 Contemporary Modern-style exhibited by the house include: its one-story, low-to-the-ground horizontal massing; low-pitched cross-hipped roof with overhanging eaves; stucco and vertical wood lap wall cladding; floor-to-ceiling glass block side lite; wood sash windows, including horizontal sliding and 21-pane fixed configurations; extended beam shade feature; flush wood door with original mail slot and handle; and exterior brick chimney. *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.

These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this significance shall be recognized and respected. 5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity. 6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced, whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic, physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or structures. 7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken. 8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological resources affected by, or adjacent to any project. 9.

Signature features of the style include steeply pitched gables; decorative half-timbering; arched openings, often Tudor or Gothic in form; asymmetrical arrangements of building features ; tall brick chimneys; and picturesque windows of leaded glass or diamond patterned lights. The more ambitious examples of the Tudor Revival were executed in brick or even stone; however, stucco over wood frame is quite common in the forgiving climate of southern California. The Tudor Revival was favored primarily for residential buildings , although small scale commercial buildings in the style also occur. Originating in the late 19th century, the Tudor Revival was associated with some Craftsman era building but was most popular during the 1920s and 1930s. SUMMARY/CONCL:USION: The Enlow House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of Tudor Reviv al-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is "Contributive" because it is a good example of the Tudor Revival style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its ne ighborhood .

Description (continued): Secondary fa<;ades on the north, south, and west. are consistent with the general characteristics of the front-facing east far;ade, including multi-pane hung and casement windows of wood sashes; glazed wood doors; and rectangular louvered vents in the gables (Figure 3). A non-historic wood plank privacy wall along the north, south, and west property lines encloses the side and back yards. On the south elevation, near the front of the residence, is the exterior brick chimney. The west elevation features a small porch with a concrete foundation and trellis cover, non-historic glazed wood door, and non- historic wood fixed pane window flanked by casement windows and a transom. A third entrance is located on the west elevation of the rear 1947 addition featuring a glazed wood door accessed by non-historic curved concrete steps (Figure 4). Windows on the historic sections of the secondary elevations are uniformly wood-sash units, with configurations that include 1/1 double-hung sashes and single-pane casements. Windows throughout the rear addition feature 1/1 wood sashes and are configured to complement the historic character of the house. Situated at the center of the parcel on the ' southern property line, the detached garage was constructed in 1927 and is rectangular in plan, sheathed in stucco, and capped with a steeply pitched front-gabled roof clad in composition shingles. The roll-up garage door faces a short driveway to the east, accessing North Valencia Street (Figure 5). The west elevation features an entrance with a glazed wood door, and the north elevation features a non-historic fixed pane wood window (Figure 6). The property is landscaped with a front and back lawn, low shrubs, mature ornamental trees, and various flowering plants. *810. Significance (continued): By April 1939, the family of Thomas B. Clark resided in the subject residence. The Clarks occupied the residence until circa 1960. Mr. Clark worked as a bookkeeper, manager, and accountant for Inland Transportation Company and served during World War II (Ancestry.com 2011c). The Clark family constructed the rear, west elevation addition in 1947 which is pictured in a 1947 aerial of Santa Ana (City of Santa Ana Building Permits; County of Orange Historical Aerial Imagery 2025). The Clark family was followed by Fredrick Butler Le Vrtt in 1960 to 1963 (The Register 1963; Ancestry.com 2011c). The Enlow 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 1-5 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 Pacffic 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), No.rth 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.

City Council 13 – 132 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2024-05, HRC No. 2025-09, HPPA No. 2025-08 – The Enlow House (2556 N. Valencia Street) September 23, 2025 Page 2 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 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 SAMC (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 SAMC, as the structure is 98 years old and is a sound example of period architecture. No known code violations exist on record for this property. The Enlow House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Tudor Revival- style house in Santa Ana. Assessor data indicates it was built in 1927. The original architect is unknown, but the original contractor was Sid Babcock, according to an article published in The Register on March 30, 1927 (The Register 1927a). The article described the residence as “stucco residence and garage, composition shingle roof; 2556 Valencia Street, $4000. Sid Babcock, contractor.” The earliest known occupant is Marie Louise Enlow who purchased the property by March 1927, and her husband, Edmund O. Enlow, according to an article published in The Register on March 17, 1927 (The Register 1927b). Enlow was the owner of the Madame Marie Lousie milliner shop in Santa Ana (The Register 1922; Ancestry.com 2011a). The single-family residence and garage are pictured in a 1930 aerial of Santa Ana (County of Orange Historical Aerial Imagery 2025). The Enlows occupied the residence until 1932 followed by Mr. and Mrs. Willard J. Lake in 1933 (Ancestry.com 2011b; The Register 1933). Located on a rectangular parcel in the Park Santiago neighborhood, the Enlow House consists of a one-story, single-family residence and detached garage constructed in the Tudor Revival style. The parcel is bounded on the east by North Valencia Street and on the north, south, and west by private property. The residence is irregular in plan with exterior walls sheathed in stucco. The cross-gabled roof is clad in composition shingles. The asymmetrical façade has wing-and-gable composition and the main entrance is recessed within an entry porch with segmental arch openings. A defining feature of the façade is the cat-slide roof on the facade gable. Within the entry porch is a non-historic City Council 13 – 133 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2024-05, HRC No. 2025-09, HPPA No. 2025-08 – The Enlow House (2556 N. Valencia Street) September 23, 2025 Page 3 glazed wood front door. Either side of the porch features tripartite casement or 1/1 sash windows, all featuring diamond glazing. Within the front gable is a pointed arch louvered vent. Other notable primary-façade elements include stone steps and iron railings leading to the front door and a small concrete foundation in front of the casement window. Secondary façades on the north, south, and west, are consistent with the general characteristics of the front-facing east façade, including multi-pane hung and casement windows of wood sashes; glazed wood doors; and rectangular louvered vents in the gables. A non-historic wood plank privacy wall along the north, south, and west property lines encloses the side and back yards. On the south elevation, near the front of the residence, is the exterior brick chimney. The west elevation features a small porch with a concrete foundation and trellis cover, non-historic glazed wood door, and non-historic wood fixed pane window flanked by casement windows and a transom. A third entrance is located on the west elevation of the rear 1947 addition featuring a glazed wood door accessed by non-historic curved concrete steps. Windows on the historic sections of the secondary elevations are uniformly wood-sash units, with configurations that include 1/1 double-hung sashes and single-pane casements. Windows throughout the rear addition feature 1/1 wood sashes and are configured to complement the historic character of the house. Situated at the center of the parcel on the southern property line, the detached garage was constructed in 1927 and is rectangular in plan, sheathed in stucco, and capped with a steeply pitched front-gabled roof clad in composition shingles. The roll-up garage door faces a short driveway to the east, accessing North Valencia Street. The west elevation features an entrance with a glazed wood door, and the north elevation features a non- historic fixed pane wood window. The property is landscaped with a front and back lawn, low shrubs, mature ornamental trees, and various flowering plants. Character-defining features of the Tudor Revival style exhibited by the house include, but are not necessarily limited to, high-pitched front gabled roof with sloping roof eave and catslide roof feature, stucco wall cladding, exterior brick chimney, diamond-glazed wood- sash window and recessed front entry with segmental arch portals. The Enlow House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Tudor Revival style home in Santa Ana. Located in Park Santiago, the house cost $4,000 to build in 1927. The recommended categorization is Contributive because it contributes to the overall character and history of Park Santiago and is a representative example of Tudor Revival architecture in Santa Ana. Mills Act Agreement 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 (Exhibit 2). To be eligible for the Mills Act, the property City Council 13 – 134 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2024-05, HRC No. 2025-09, HPPA No. 2025-08 – The Enlow House (2556 N. Valencia Street) September 23, 2025 Page 4 must be listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The Historic Resources Commission Application and Historic Register Categorization actions proposed for this site authorize the listing of the property on the local register. 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 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 • A mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation • Incentives for potential buyers to purchase historic structures • Discouraging inappropriate alterations to the property The property has no identified unauthorized modifications. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement subject to a completion of future improvements as described in an attached Work Plan. Overall, future improvements (Work Plan) proposed by the homeowner during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include the following: new roof and general maintenance. Staff suggests adding the following items to the Work Plan: 1) assess condition of paint and stucco; repair and repaint as necessary; 2) assess condition of the fence on the north side of the residence and repair and repaint as necessary, replacement subject to Planning Division staff approval; 3) assess condition of walkway on north side of the fence and repair as necessary; 4) assess condition of roofing, eaves, fascia, and rain gutters throughout the residence and repair as necessary, subject to Planning Division staff approval; and 5) assess all historic windows and window framing and repaint, repair, or replace in-kind, as necessary; window repair and replacement is subject to staff approval. Staff will ensure that the proposed work will be done 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. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement to enable the Mills Act.

ADDRESS 2556 North Valencia Street CITY Santa Ana ZIP 92706 ORANGE COUNTY YEAR BUILT 1927 LOCAL REGISTER CATEGORY: Contributive HISTORIC DISTRICT N/A NEIGHBORHOOD Park Santiago CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION C/3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 5S3 Location: Not for Publication Unrestricted Prehistoric Historic Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Tudor Revival The Tudor Revival looked to medieval England for its inspiration. Signature features of the style include steeply pitched gables; decorative half-timbering; arched openings, often Tudor or Gothic in form; asymmetrical arrangements of building features; tall brick chimneys; and picturesque windows of leaded glass or diamond patterned lights. The more ambitious examples of the Tudor Revival were executed in brick or even stone; however, stucco over wood frame is quite common in the forgiving climate of southern California. The Tudor Revival was favored primarily for residential buildings, although small scale commercial buildings in the style also occur. Originating in the late 19th century, the Tudor Revival was associated with some Craftsman era building but was most popular during the 1920s and 1930s. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Enlow House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of Tudor Revival-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it is a good example of the Tudor Revival style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood. (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3).

The earliest known occupant is Marie Louise Enlow who purchased the property by March 1927, and her husband, Edmund O. Enlow, according to an article published in The Register on March 17, 1927 (The Register 1927b). Enlow was the owner of the Madame Marie Lousie milliner shop in Santa Ana (The Register 1922; Ancestry.com 2011a). The single-family residence and garage are pictured in a 1930 aerial of Santa Ana (County of Orange Historical Aerial Imagery 2025). The Enlows occupied the residence until 1932 followed by Mr. and Mrs. Willard J. Lake in 1933 (Ancestry.com 2011b; The Register 1933). (See Continuation Sheet 3). B11.

Description (continued): Secondary façades on the north, south, and west, are consistent with the general characteristics of the front-facing east façade, including multi-pane hung and casement windows of wood sashes; glazed wood doors; and rectangular louvered vents in the gables (Figure 3). A non-historic wood plank privacy wall along the north, south, and west property lines encloses the side and back yards. On the south elevation, near the front of the residence, is the exterior brick chimney. The west elevation features a small porch with a concrete foundation and trellis cover, non-historic glazed wood door, and non- historic wood fixed pane window flanked by casement windows and a transom. A third entrance is located on the west elevation of the rear 1947 addition featuring a glazed wood door accessed by non-historic curved concrete steps (Figure 4). Windows on the historic sections of the secondary elevations are uniformly wood-sash units, with configurations that include 1/1 double-hung sashes and single-pane casements. Windows throughout the rear addition feature 1/1 wood sashes and are configured to complement the historic character of the house. Situated at the center of the parcel on the southern property line, the detached garage was constructed in 1927 and is rectangular in plan, sheathed in stucco, and capped with a steeply pitched front-gabled roof clad in composition shingles. The roll-up garage door faces a short driveway to the east, accessing North Valencia Street (Figure 5). The west elevation features an entrance with a glazed wood door, and the north elevation features a non-historic fixed pane wood window (Figure 6). The property is landscaped with a front and back lawn, low shrubs, mature ornamental trees, and various flowering plants. *B10. Significance (continued): By April 1939, the family of Thomas B. Clark resided in the subject residence. The Clarks occupied the residence until circa 1960. Mr. Clark worked as a bookkeeper, manager, and accountant for Inland Transportation Company and served during World War II (Ancestry.com 2011c). The Clark family constructed the rear, west elevation addition in 1947 which is pictured in a 1947 aerial of Santa Ana (City of Santa Ana Building Permits; County of Orange Historical Aerial Imagery 2025). The Clark family was followed by Fredrick Butler Le Vitt in 1960 to 1963 (The Register 1963; Ancestry.com 2011c). The Enlow 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.

Located in Park Santiago, the house was constructed in 1927. 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 Tudor Revival style exhibited by the house include, but are not necessarily limited to, high-pitched front gabled roof with sloping roof eave and catslide roof feature, stucco wall cladding, exterior brick chimney, diamond-glazed wood-sash window and recessed front entry with segmental arch portals. *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. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken. 8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological resources affected by, or adjacent to any project. 9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant historical, architectural or cultural material, and such design is compatible with City Council 13 – 158 11/4/2025 MILLS ACT AGREEMENT 2556 North Valencia Street Santa Ana, CA 92706 - 2 - size, scale, color, material and character of the property, neighborhood, or environment. 10. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be done in such a manner that if such additions or alterations need to be removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the structure would be unimpaired.

Built on an L-plan, the residence is capped with a clay, barrel-tile-clad hipped roof. Siding throughout the residence is rough stucco. Along the west side of the building, an arcade with tiled flooring and an exposed wood ceiling starts from the front of the building, where it shelters an attached two-car garage (Figure 2). The arcade terminates at the north at the deeply set-back front entrance, which is accessed by way of the glazed front door with a terracotta surround. East-facing windows front much of the course of the arcade. Generally, these are wood fixed or tripartite sliding units, though a single sliding vinyl window punctures the wall at the clerestory level (Figure 3). (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 5.) *P3b.

Significance: Theme Mexican American Heritage and Advocacy in Santa Ana Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1974-1979 Property Type: Single-family residence Applicable Criteria: B/2 The Hector Godinez House is historically significant for its association with its original owner and builder, Hector G. Godinez. Building permit data indicates the property was built in 1974 by owner and contractor Hector Godinez for $50,000 (City of Santa Ana 2025). Before owning the subject property, Mr. Godinez was born in San Diego in 1924 but moved to Santa Ana where he attended ethnically segregated schools, which became a social issue he fought against later in life. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Mr. Godinez enlisted in the United States Army and served in General Patton's Third Army as a tank commander. For his service, he earned a Bronze Star for Bravery, five battle stars, and a Purple Heart when he was injured during the Battle of the Bulge. After his honorable discharge and through a Federal program created to help partially disabled veterans gain government jobs, Mr. Godinez started his 49-year career with the United States Postal Service as a letter carrier in Santa Ana. In 1961, Mr. Godinez was appointed by President John F. Kennedy as the first Mexican American postmaster not only in Santa Ana but in the country (United States Congressional Hearing 2002; Ancestry.com 2010; The Register 1961). From there, Hector worked his way up to become the Southern California district manager for the United States Post Office, managing more than 44,000 employees and an operating budget of $750 million.

Description (continued): Accessed through a gate and rough stucco-clad walls, the east elevation features wood-frame horizontal sliding wood sash windows and vinyl-frame horizontal sliding sash windows (Figures 4 and 5). Additionally, a set of wood-frame French doors sit at the center of the east elevation adjacent to decorative metal sconces. A concrete path runs down the side of the east elevation towards the backyard which features a swimming pool, pool house, and a trellis shade structure. The north elevation accesses the backyard through four entrances: one entrance at the eastern end has a single, glazed wood-frame door and three of the entrances are wood-frame French doors with sidelites (Figures 6 and 7). The entrances sit on either side of a large exterior brick chimney and vinyl-frame horizontal sliding sash windows (Figure 8). Another set of wood-frame French doors and a single wood-frame door are located on the west façade facing a concrete path leading to the backyard. At the rear of the property adjacent to the swimming pool is a pool house structure sitting on a brick foundation and capped with a front-gabled roof clad in barrel tile cladding (Figures 9 and 10). The wood frame structure of the roof is exposed atop stucco and brick clad walls which are open to the pool with a couch. Landscaping on the property consists of a lawn north and south of the residence, palms and ornamental plants, and a mature trees at the back yard. Four large brick-clad columns line the front yard along the sidewalk and West Santa Clara Avenue. *B10. Significance (continued): Alongside his work as a postmaster, Mr. Godinez was a founder of the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) Santa Ana chapter and worked to desegregate Orange County public schools. Santa Ana LULAC was dedicated to addressing improvement of conditions for Mexican Americans and responsible for Mendez v. Orange County Board of Education in 1947. This lawsuit fought to desegregate Orange County schools and was influential as the basis for Brown v. Board of Education at the national level. He served as national president of the LULAC from 1960 to 1961 (United States Congressional Hearing 2002). After working tirelessly for the United States Postal Service, Mr. Godinez was appointed District Manager of Los Angeles and Orange Counties in 1975 and again as the regional director of sequoia district office (which managed all mail from the coastal regions to the Mojave in southern California) in 1977 (Los Angeles Times 1975, 1977). He served on several commissions and boards while occupying the subject property including the city redevelopment commission in 1976, served as president of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce and Trustee of Rancho Santiago Community College District in 1976, and the Santa Ana Healthcare Authority in 1979 along with service in education, support for veterans, and unionizing the Santa Ana branch of postal workers (The Register 1976a, 1976b; Los Angeles Times 1979). He was the first Hispanic to be named the president of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce and a founding member of the Santa Ana Redevelopment Board (United States Congressional Hearing 2002). Additionally, Mr. Godinez was the recipient of the NAACP’s Human Rights Award and the Western Region’s Community Service Award, and he was among the first recipients of the Postmaster General’s Award for Executive Achievement. He was distinguished by the National Association of Postmasters, the National League of Postmasters, and the National Association of Postal Supervisors (United States Congressional Hearing 2002). In 1999, Mr. Godinez passed away, and the house sold in 2001 (ParcelQuest 2025). The current owners and residents are Tom Chappell and Elvia Orrillo Blas. The Hector Godinez House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of orange, avocado, and walnut trees and widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). “Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land. And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana” (Orange County Register 1981). The parcel chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. “When built in the 1920s, the Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each” (Orange County Register 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and 1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival. The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War II, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue. In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral Park. An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell’s own large, Colonial Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In 1937, Roy Rodney Russell, joined his father’s firm and by 1945 it was renamed as Roy Russell and Son. In the early post World War II years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous, smaller, single- family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style.

Today, Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens. The Hector Godinez House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Key Category Criterion 4(b) for its association with Hector G. Godinez, activist and community leader in Santa Ana and Southern California. The established period of signifcance is 1974, when he constructed the residence, to 1979, when he was part of the Santa Ana Healthcare Authority and District Manager for the United States Postal Service in Southern California. Character-defining features of the Hector Godinez house that should be preserved are those constructed within the period of significance of 1974- 1979 and which generally reflect the property’s Spanish Colonial Revival style. They include, but are not limited to, its L plan, cross-gabled roof, clay-barrel-tile roof cladding, stucco exterior, east-façade arcade with exposed wood beams, and original wood-sash sliding windows. *B12.

Santa Clara Avenue) RECOMMENDED ACTION 1. Adopt a resolution approving Historic Resources Commission Application No. 2025- 08 and Historic Register Categorization No. 2025-10. 2. Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute the attached Mills Act agreement with E. Thomas Chappell, for the property located at 433 W. Santa Clara Avenue, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY E. Thomas Chappell is requesting approval to designate an existing Spanish Colonial Revival-style residence located at 433 W. Santa Clara Avenue to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties, as well as approval to execute a Mills Act agreement with the City of Santa Ana. The property qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 4(b) for its association with Hector G. Godinez, activist and community leader in Santa Ana and Southern California. It is worthy of “Key” categorization because it is associated with a significant person in the city. Elements of the property reflective of its association with Godinez, the property’s builder and original owner/occupant, include its L plan, cross-gabled roof, clay-barrel-tile roofing, entryway arcade, and stucco exterior, among other features. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located on a mid-block lot on W. Santa Clara Avenue lot with Bonnie Brae to the east and N. Heliotrope Drive to the west, in the Floral Park neighborhood of Santa Ana. The site contains a 1,456-square-foot, Spanish Colonial Revival-style residence and attached garage on an approximately 7,800-square-foot residential lot (Exhibits 3 and 4). City Council 13 – 186 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2025-08, HRC No. 2025-10, HPPA No. 2025-10– The Hector Godinez House (433 W. Santa Clara Avenue) September 23, 2025 Page 2 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 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 SAMC (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 SAMC, as the structure is 51 years old and is associated with an individual significant to the history of Sant Ana. No known code violations exist on record for this property. The Hector Godinez House is historically significant for its association with its original owner and builder, Hector G. Godinez. Building permit data indicates the property was built in 1974 by owner and contractor Hector Godinez for $50,000 (City of Santa Ana 2025). Before owning the subject property, Mr. Godinez was born in San Diego in 1924 but moved to Santa Ana where he attended ethnically segregated schools, which became a social issue he fought against later in life. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Mr. Godinez enlisted in the United States Army and served in General Patton's Third Army as a tank commander. For his service, he earned a Bronze Star for Bravery, five battle stars, and a Purple Heart when he was injured during the Battle of the Bulge. After his honorable discharge and through a Federal program created to help partially disabled veterans gain government jobs, Mr. Godinez started his 49-year career with the United States Postal Service as a letter carrier in Santa Ana. In 1961, Mr. Godinez was appointed by President John F. Kennedy as the first Mexican American postmaster not only in Santa Ana but in the country (United States Congressional Hearing 2002; Ancestry.com 2010; The Register 1961). From there, Hector worked his way up to become the Southern California district manager for the United States Post Office, managing more than 44,000 employees and an operating budget of $750 million. Alongside his work as a postmaster, Mr. Godinez was a founder of the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) Santa Ana chapter and worked to desegregate Orange County public schools. Santa Ana LULAC was dedicated to addressing improvement of conditions for Mexican Americans and responsible for Mendez v. Orange County Board of Education in 1947. This lawsuit fought to desegregate Orange County schools and was City Council 13 – 187 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2025-08, HRC No. 2025-10, HPPA No. 2025-10– The Hector Godinez House (433 W. Santa Clara Avenue) September 23, 2025 Page 3 influential as the basis for Brown v. Board of Education at the national level. He served as national president of the LULAC from 1960 to 1961 (United States Congressional Hearing 2002). After working tirelessly for the United States Postal Service, Mr. Godinez was appointed District Manager of Los Angeles and Orange Counties in 1975 and again as the regional director of Sequoia District Office (which managed all mail from the coastal regions to the Mojave in southern California) in 1977 (Los Angeles Times 1975, 1977). He served on several commissions and boards while occupying the subject property including the city redevelopment commission in 1976, served as president of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce and Trustee of Rancho Santiago Community College District in 1976, and the Santa Ana Healthcare Authority in 1979 along with service in education, support for veterans, and unionizing the Santa Ana branch of postal workers (The Register 1976a, 1976b; Los Angeles Times 1979). He was the first Hispanic to be named the president of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce and a founding member of the Santa Ana Redevelopment Board (United States Congressional Hearing 2002). Additionally, Mr. Godinez was the recipient of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People’s Human Rights Award and the Western Region’s Community Service Award, and he was among the first recipients of the Postmaster General’s Award for Executive Achievement. He was distinguished by the National Association of Postmasters, the National League of Postmasters, and the National Association of Postal Supervisors (United States Congressional Hearing 2002). In 1999, Mr. Godinez passed away, and the house sold in 2001 (ParcelQuest 2025). The current residents are Tom Chappell and Elvia Orrillo Blas. Located in the Floral Park neighborhood, the Hector Godinez House consists of a one- story, single-family residence and pool house constructed in the Spanish Colonial Revival style. Built on an L-plan, the residence is capped with a clay, barrel-tile-clad hipped roof. Siding throughout the residence is rough stucco. Along the west side of the building, an arcade with tiled flooring and an exposed wood ceiling starts from the front of the building, where it shelters an attached two-car garage. The arcade terminates at the north at the deeply set-back front entrance, which is accessed by way of the glazed front door with a terracotta surround. East-facing windows face much of the course of the arcade. Generally, these are wood fixed or tripartite sliding units, though a single sliding vinyl window punctures the wall at the clerestory level. Accessed through a gate and rough stucco-clad walls, the east elevation features wood- frame horizontal sliding wood sash windows and vinyl-frame horizontal sliding sash windows. Additionally, a set of wood-frame French doors sit at the center of the east elevation adjacent to decorative metal sconces. A concrete path runs down the side of the east elevation towards the backyard which features a swimming pool, pool house, and a trellis shade structure. The north elevation accesses the backyard through four entrances: one entrance at the eastern end has a single, glazed wood-frame door and City Council 13 – 188 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2025-08, HRC No. 2025-10, HPPA No. 2025-10– The Hector Godinez House (433 W. Santa Clara Avenue) September 23, 2025 Page 4 three of the entrances are wood-frame French doors with sidelites. The entrances sit on either side of a large exterior brick chimney and vinyl-frame horizontal sliding sash windows (Figure 8). Another set of wood-frame French doors and a single wood-frame door are located on the west façade facing a concrete path leading to the backyard. At the rear of the property adjacent to the swimming pool is a pool house structure sitting on a brick foundation and capped with a front-gabled roof clad in barrel tile cladding. The wood frame structure of the roof is exposed atop stucco and brick clad walls which are open to the pool with a couch. Landscaping on the property consists of a lawn north and south of the residence, palms and ornamental plants, and mature trees at the back yard. Four large brick-clad columns line the front yard along the sidewalk and West Santa Clara Avenue. Character-defining features of the Hector Godinez house that should be preserved are those constructed within the period of significance of 1974-1979 and which generally reflect the property’s Spanish Colonial Revival style. They include, but are not limited to, its L plan, cross-gabled roof, clay-barrel-tile roof cladding, stucco exterior, east-façade arcade with exposed wood beams, and original wood-sash sliding windows. The Hector Godinez House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Key Category Criterion 4(b) for its association with Hector G. Godinez, activist and community leader in Santa Ana and Southern California. The established period of significance begins in 1974, when he constructed the residence, and concludes in 1979, when he was part of the Santa Ana Healthcare Authority and District Manager for the United States Postal Service in Southern California. Mills Act Agreement 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 (Exhibit 2). To be eligible for the Mills Act, the property must be listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The Historic Resources Commission Application and Historic Register Categorization actions proposed for this site authorize the listing of the property on the local register. 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 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 • A mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation • Incentives for potential buyers to purchase historic structures City Council 13 – 189 11/4/2025 HRCA No. 2025-08, HRC No. 2025-10, HPPA No. 2025-10– The Hector Godinez House (433 W. Santa Clara Avenue) September 23, 2025 Page 5 • Discouraging inappropriate alterations to the property The property has no identified unauthorized modifications. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement subject to a completion of future improvements as described in an attached Work Plan. Overall, future improvements (Work Plan) proposed by the homeowner during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include the following: 1) assess condition of all windows, including frames and sashes, and repair or replace in-kind, as necessary and subject to Planning Division staff approval; 2) assess condition of roof, roofing tiles, exposed rafters, and fascia and repair or replace in-kind, as necessary and subject to Planning Division staff approval; 3) replace vinyl windows on east and north facades with stylistically appropriate wood sash windows, subject to Planning Division staff approval; 4) assess condition of hardscaping throughout the property and repair or replace with Planning Division staff approval; 5) assess paint and stucco throughout the residence and repaint, repair or replace, as necessary and subject to Planning Division staff approval. 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. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement to enable the Mills Act.

Built on an L-plan, the residence is capped with a clay, barrel-tile-clad hipped roof. Siding throughout the residence is rough stucco. Along the west side of the building, an arcade with tiled flooring and an exposed wood ceiling starts from the front of the building, where it shelters an attached two-car garage (Figure 2). The arcade terminates at the north at the deeply set-back front entrance, which is accessed by way of the glazed front door with a terracotta surround. East-facing windows front much of the course of the arcade. Generally, these are wood fixed or tripartite sliding units, though a single sliding vinyl window punctures the wall at the clerestory level (Figure 3). (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 5.) *P3b.

Significance: Theme Mexican American Heritage and Advocacy in Santa Ana Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1974-1979 Property Type: Single-family residence Applicable Criteria: B/2 The Hector Godinez House is historically significant for its association with its original owner and builder, Hector G. Godinez. Building permit data indicates the property was built in 1974 by owner and contractor Hector Godinez for $50,000 (City of Santa Ana 2025). Before owning the subject property, Mr. Godinez was born in San Diego in 1924 but moved to Santa Ana where he attended ethnically segregated schools, which became a social issue he fought against later in life. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Mr. Godinez enlisted in the United States Army and served in General Patton's Third Army as a tank commander. For his service, he earned a Bronze Star for Bravery, five battle stars, and a Purple Heart when he was injured during the Battle of the Bulge. After his honorable discharge and through a Federal program created to help partially disabled veterans gain government jobs, Mr. Godinez started his 49-year career with the United States Postal Service as a letter carrier in Santa Ana. In 1961, Mr. Godinez was appointed by President John F. Kennedy as the first Mexican American postmaster not only in Santa Ana but in the country (United States Congressional Hearing 2002; Ancestry.com 2010; The Register 1961). From there, Hector worked his way up to become the Southern California district manager for the United States Post Office, managing more than 44,000 employees and an operating budget of $750 million.

Description (continued): Accessed through a gate and rough stucco-clad walls, the east elevation features wood-frame horizontal sliding wood sash windows and vinyl-frame horizontal sliding sash windows (Figures 4 and 5). Additionally, a set of wood-frame French doors sit at the center of the east elevation adjacent to decorative metal sconces. A concrete path runs down the side of the east elevation towards the backyard which features a swimming pool, pool house, and a trellis shade structure. The north elevation accesses the backyard through four entrances: one entrance at the eastern end has a single, glazed wood-frame door and three of the entrances are wood-frame French doors with sidelites (Figures 6 and 7). The entrances sit on either side of a large exterior brick chimney and vinyl-frame horizontal sliding sash windows (Figure 8). Another set of wood-frame French doors and a single wood-frame door are located on the west façade facing a concrete path leading to the backyard. At the rear of the property adjacent to the swimming pool is a pool house structure sitting on a brick foundation and capped with a front-gabled roof clad in barrel tile cladding (Figures 9 and 10). The wood frame structure of the roof is exposed atop stucco and brick clad walls which are open to the pool with a couch. Landscaping on the property consists of a lawn north and south of the residence, palms and ornamental plants, and a mature trees at the back yard. Four large brick-clad columns line the front yard along the sidewalk and West Santa Clara Avenue. *B10. Significance (continued): Alongside his work as a postmaster, Mr. Godinez was a founder of the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) Santa Ana chapter and worked to desegregate Orange County public schools. Santa Ana LULAC was dedicated to addressing improvement of conditions for Mexican Americans and responsible for Mendez v. Orange County Board of Education in 1947. This lawsuit fought to desegregate Orange County schools and was influential as the basis for Brown v. Board of Education at the national level. He served as national president of the LULAC from 1960 to 1961 (United States Congressional Hearing 2002). After working tirelessly for the United States Postal Service, Mr. Godinez was appointed District Manager of Los Angeles and Orange Counties in 1975 and again as the regional director of sequoia district office (which managed all mail from the coastal regions to the Mojave in southern California) in 1977 (Los Angeles Times 1975, 1977). He served on several commissions and boards while occupying the subject property including the city redevelopment commission in 1976, served as president of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce and Trustee of Rancho Santiago Community College District in 1976, and the Santa Ana Healthcare Authority in 1979 along with service in education, support for veterans, and unionizing the Santa Ana branch of postal workers (The Register 1976a, 1976b; Los Angeles Times 1979). He was the first Hispanic to be named the president of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce and a founding member of the Santa Ana Redevelopment Board (United States Congressional Hearing 2002). Additionally, Mr. Godinez was the recipient of the NAACP’s Human Rights Award and the Western Region’s Community Service Award, and he was among the first recipients of the Postmaster General’s Award for Executive Achievement. He was distinguished by the National Association of Postmasters, the National League of Postmasters, and the National Association of Postal Supervisors (United States Congressional Hearing 2002). In 1999, Mr. Godinez passed away, and the house sold in 2001 (ParcelQuest 2025). The current owners and residents are Tom Chappell and Elvia Orrillo Blas. The Hector Godinez House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of orange, avocado, and walnut trees and widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). “Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land. And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana” (Orange County Register 1981). The parcel chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. “When built in the 1920s, the Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each” (Orange County Register 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and 1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival. The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War II, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue. In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral Park. An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell’s own large, Colonial Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In 1937, Roy Rodney Russell, joined his father’s firm and by 1945 it was renamed as Roy Russell and Son. In the early post World War II years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous, smaller, single- family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style.

Today, Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens. The Hector Godinez House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Key Category Criterion 4(b) for its association with Hector G. Godinez, activist and community leader in Santa Ana and Southern California. The established period of signifcance is 1974, when he constructed the residence, to 1979, when he was part of the Santa Ana Healthcare Authority and District Manager for the United States Postal Service in Southern California. Character-defining features of the Hector Godinez house that should be preserved are those constructed within the period of significance of 1974- 1979 and which generally reflect the property’s Spanish Colonial Revival style. They include, but are not limited to, its L plan, cross-gabled roof, clay-barrel-tile roof cladding, stucco exterior, east-façade arcade with exposed wood beams, and original wood-sash sliding windows. *B12.

Santa Clara Avenue Santa Ana, CA 92706 - 1 - Exhibit C Exterior work shall be reviewed by the Historic Resources Commission and subject to the U.S. Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings, as follows: 1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose. 2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when possible. 3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged. 4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment. These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this significance shall be recognized and respected. 5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity. 6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced, whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities.

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). A “Classic Box” variant of the Colonial Revival style was popular circa 1894 to 1910 and was generally characterized by two-story box-like massing, a hipped roof (often with centered dormers), boxed eaves, a full or partial front porch with columnar roof supports, and Colonial Revival detailing. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Taylor-Gustlin House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its representation of the distinguishing characteristics of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Landmark” because it “has a unique architectural significance” as a well-detailed and highly intact example of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival style (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

A bellcast, hipped roof crowns this square, two-story Colonial Revival house characterized by the box-like massing indicative of the Classic Box genre. The roof treatment includes carved brackets in the eaves and a centered front-gabled dormer over the façade. Narrow clapboard sheathes the house, with a bracketed overhang between stories. Recessed into the southern two-thirds of the façade, the porch is divided into bays by paired Tuscan columns and wraps the southeast corner of the house in a semicircular configuration. The columns rest on a railing of turned balusters. At the top of six steps in the center of the façade, the entry consists of a glazed door flanked by leaded glass sidelights. A large tripartite window to the left (south) is spanned by a leaded glass transom; a window to the right is a single fixed sash. Other windows are double-hung sash, with muntins arranged in a diamond pattern in the upper sashes. A balustraded balcony over the entry is defined by a segmental arch opening that has been filled with a non-original diamond-paned window. A second balcony tops the semicircular portion of the porch. Paneled detailing distinguishes a brick chimney attached to the south elevation. This highly intact house sits on an art stone foundation, with newer brick retaining walls bordering the front lawn.

One of a pair of very similar homes located next to each other on over-sized parcels, the house is also notable as one of the earlier homes in the Park Santiago neighborhood. According to previous research and neighborhood lore, this house and its neighbor (2510 North Valencia Street) were constructed for two elderly sisters, Laura and Mary Taylor, by their brother, Charles Taylor, and were originally identical.

Description (continued): house, a cross-gabled carriage house crowned by a cupola and weathervane was moved onto the property from 810 North French Street (the Crookshank House) in 1979 and converted into living areas. Mature trees dot this large property, which is enclosed by a non-original wrought iron fence. *B10. Significance (continued): numbers, beginning in 1908 and continuing through 1918. In 1922, Abraham Gustlin, a former railroad worker turned rancher, and his wife Lovina were living at 427 Edgewood. By 1925, this house had become 2410 North Valencia. It is not clear if the house was actually moved to make way for an extension of Valencia or if it was merely renumbered when the street was subdivided. The Gustlins remained at this address at least until 1951, according to city building permits. In the 1970s, the property was purchased by Robert and Dorothy Heath, who rehabilitated the house and moved the carriage house from the Crookshank House in French Park. Subsequent owners Doug and Deborah Thomsen continued the rehabilitation. The Taylor-Gustlin House is located in the Park Santiago neighborhood, near the present northern city limits of Santa Ana and substantially north of the original city core. 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 Taylor-Gustlin House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its representation of the distinguishing characteristics of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Landmark” because it “has a unique architectural significance” as a well-detailed and highly intact example of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival style. Notable in this regard are the box-like massing, hipped roof with dormer, Tuscan columns, and highly ornamental treatment of the windows and brackets. All original and restored exterior features of the Taylor-Gustlin House are considered character-defining and should be preserved. These features include, but may not be limited to: sheathing (clapboard); roof configuration and detailing; massing; windows and doors; porch; architectural details (porch supports, window and door surrounds, brackets, etc.); any original landscaping such as fruit trees; and original interior features such as the log cabin patterned hardwood floor.

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

Valencia 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 DLKC Investments, LLC, for the property located at 2520 N. Valencia Street, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY DLKC Investments, LLC, is requesting approval to execute a Mills Act Agreement with the City of Santa Ana at an existing residence located at 2520 N. Valencia 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 Taylor-Gustlin House, consists of an existing two-story Colonial Revival-style residence and a relocated carriage house of a combined 4,529 square feet in size located on a 26,100-square-foot residential lot. The Taylor-Gustlin House was added to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties (“Register”) in 2004 and categorized as “Landmark” (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 Landmark, 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 City Council 13 – 240 11/4/2025 HPPA No. 2025-06 – The Taylor-Gustlin House (2520 N. Valencia Street) September 23, 2025 Page 2 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 Taylor-Gustlin House on the Register and within the Landmark category for its unique architectural quality as a highly intact residence with the distinguishing characteristics of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival style. All original and restored exterior features of the Taylor-Gustlin House are considered character-defining and should be preserved. These features include, but may not be limited to: sheathing (clapboard); roof configuration and detailing; massing; windows and doors; porch; architectural details (porch supports, window and door surrounds, brackets, etc.); any original landscaping such as fruit trees; and original interior features such as the log cabin patterned hardwood floor. The following permits for exterior work have been issued for the property: relocation of the existing carriage house in 1979, construction of garage and playroom in 1979, replacement of masonry fireplace in 1979, rear addition in 1979 construction of pool and spa in 1989, construction of fountain in 1989. No other exterior alterations were documented in City building permits or observed during the site inspection conducted in 2025. During the 2025 site visit, Planning Division staff noted the property was in excellent condition with no historically inappropriate modifications. Future improvements proposed by Planning Division staff and agreed to by the homeowner during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include assess roof, exposed rafters, and rain gutters on residence and carriage house and repaint, repair, or replace in-kind, as necessary, in-kind replacement being subject to Planning Division staff approval; assess condition of paint and exterior wall cladding and repaint, repair, or replace in-kind, replacement being subject to Planning Division staff approval; assess windows on primary and secondary buildings and repaint, repair, or replace in-kind, as necessary, repair and replacement being subject to Planning Division staff approval; assess condition of driveway and concrete paths, concrete front steps, and brick site features and repair in-kind as necessary, subject to Planning Division staff approval. 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, City Council 13 – 241 11/4/2025 HPPA No. 2025-06 – The Taylor-Gustlin House (2520 N. Valencia Street) September 23, 2025 Page 3 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. 2025-75, 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 $1,000.99 annually, for a period of not less than ten years.

Cancellation. a. The City, following a duly noticed public hearing by the City Council as set forth in Government Code Section 50280, et. seq., may cancel this Agreement if it determines that the Owner have breached any of the conditions of this Agreement, or has allowed the property to deteriorate to the point that it no longer meets the standards for a qualified Historic Property, or if the City determines that the Owner have failed to restore or rehabilitate the property in the manner specified in Section 3 of this Agreement. If a contract is cancelled for these reasons, the Owner shall pay a cancellation fee to the County Auditor as set forth in Government Code Section 50286. This cancellation fee shall be a percentage (currently set at twelve and one-half (12 ½) percent by Government Code Section 50286) of the current fair market value of the property at the time of the cancellation, as determined by the county assessor, without regard to any restriction imposed pursuant to this Agreement. b. If the Historic Property is destroyed by earthquake, fire, flood or other natural disaster such that in the opinion of the City Building Official more than sixty (60) percent of the original fabric of the structure must be replaced, this Agreement shall be canceled immediately because, in effect, the historic value of the structure will have been destroyed. No fee shall be imposed in the case of destruction by acts of God or natural disaster. c.

ADDRESS 2520 North Valencia Street CITY Santa Ana ZIP 92706 ORANGE COUNTY YEAR BUILT Circa 1908 LOCAL REGISTER CATEGORY: Landmark HISTORIC DISTRICT N/A NEIGHBORHOOD Park Santiago CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION 3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 3S Location: Not for Publication Unrestricted Prehistoric Historic Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Colonial Revival The most universal of all American domestic building styles, the Colonial Revival has been popular since the 1876 Centennial celebration in Philadelphia stimulated a patriotic interest in the American architectural past. 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). A “Classic Box” variant of the Colonial Revival style was popular circa 1894 to 1910 and was generally characterized by two-story box-like massing, a hipped roof (often with centered dormers), boxed eaves, a full or partial front porch with columnar roof supports, and Colonial Revival detailing. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The Taylor-Gustlin House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its representation of the distinguishing characteristics of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Landmark” because it “has a unique architectural significance” as a well-detailed and highly intact example of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival style (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

A bellcast, hipped roof crowns this square, two-story Colonial Revival house characterized by the box-like massing indicative of the Classic Box genre. The roof treatment includes carved brackets in the eaves and a centered front-gabled dormer over the façade. Narrow clapboard sheathes the house, with a bracketed overhang between stories. Recessed into the southern two-thirds of the façade, the porch is divided into bays by paired Tuscan columns and wraps the southeast corner of the house in a semicircular configuration. The columns rest on a railing of turned balusters. At the top of six steps in the center of the façade, the entry consists of a glazed door flanked by leaded glass sidelights. A large tripartite window to the left (south) is spanned by a leaded glass transom; a window to the right is a single fixed sash. Other windows are double-hung sash, with muntins arranged in a diamond pattern in the upper sashes. A balustraded balcony over the entry is defined by a segmental arch opening that has been filled with a non-original diamond-paned window. A second balcony tops the semicircular portion of the porch. Paneled detailing distinguishes a brick chimney attached to the south elevation. This highly intact house sits on an art stone foundation, with newer brick retaining walls bordering the front lawn.

One of a pair of very similar homes located next to each other on over-sized parcels, the house is also notable as one of the earlier homes in the Park Santiago neighborhood. According to previous research and neighborhood lore, this house and its neighbor (2510 North Valencia Street) were constructed for two elderly sisters, Laura and Mary Taylor, by their brother, Charles Taylor, and were originally identical.

Heumann, SAIC *Date December 31, 2003 _ Continuation Update DPR 523L *P3a. Description (continued): house, a cross-gabled carriage house crowned by a cupola and weathervane was moved onto the property from 810 North French Street (the Crookshank House) in 1979 and converted into living areas. Mature trees dot this large property, which is enclosed by a non-original wrought iron fence. *B10. Significance (continued): numbers, beginning in 1908 and continuing through 1918. In 1922, Abraham Gustlin, a former railroad worker turned rancher, and his wife Lovina were living at 427 Edgewood. By 1925, this house had become 2410 North Valencia. It is not clear if the house was actually moved to make way for an extension of Valencia or if it was merely renumbered when the street was subdivided. The Gustlins remained at this address at least until 1951, according to city building permits. In the 1970s, the property was purchased by Robert and Dorothy Heath, who rehabilitated the house and moved the carriage house from the Crookshank House in French Park. Subsequent owners Doug and Deborah Thomsen continued the rehabilitation. The Taylor-Gustlin House is located in the Park Santiago neighborhood, near the present northern city limits of Santa Ana and substantially north of the original city core. 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 Taylor-Gustlin House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its representation of the distinguishing characteristics of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Landmark” because it “has a unique architectural significance” as a well-detailed and highly intact example of the Classic Box variant of the Colonial Revival style. Notable in this regard are the box-like massing, hipped roof with dormer, Tuscan columns, and highly ornamental treatment of the windows and brackets. All original and restored exterior features of the Taylor-Gustlin House are considered character-defining and should be preserved. These features include, but may not be limited to: sheathing (clapboard); roof configuration and detailing; massing; windows and doors; porch; architectural details (porch supports, window and door surrounds, brackets, etc.); any original landscaping such as fruit trees; and original interior features such as the log cabin patterned hardwood floor.

Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose. 2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when possible. 3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged. 4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment. These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this significance shall be recognized and respected. 5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity. 6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced, whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic, physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or structures. 7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken. 8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological resources affected by, or adjacent to any project. 9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant historical, architectural or cultural material, and such design is compatible with City Council 13 – 257 11/4/2025 MILLS ACT AGREEMENT 2520 North Valencia Street Santa Ana, CA 92701 - 2 - size, scale, color, material and character of the property, neighborhood, or environment. 10. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be done in such a manner that if such additions or alterations need to be removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the structure would be unimpaired.

PROBLEM STATEMENT Describe the city, county, or jurisdiction this grant will impact. The City of Santa Ana, located in central Orange County, California, serves as the county seat and is known for its vibrant culture and rich history. With a population of approximately 310,000 residents, Santa Ana is the third most populous city in the county, following Anaheim and Irvine. Covering about 27.5 square miles, the city features a diverse mix of residential neighborhoods, commercial centers, and industrial areas. Santa Ana plays a key role in Orange County’s public sector and educational landscape, hosting numerous government offices and institutions. The city has a predominantly Latino population, which contributes significantly to its cultural identity and community life. Santa Ana is home to historic landmarks such as the Old Orange County Courthouse and the Santa Ana Zoo, as well as modern destinations like MainPlace Mall and a growing downtown arts district. Due to its central location and proximity to major highways including Interstate 5 and State Routes 22 and 55, Santa Ana experiences high volumes of commuter traffic. This results in ongoing challenges related to traffic safety, particularly for pedestrians and cyclists. The Santa Ana Police Department actively addresses these concerns through enforcement, public education, and community engagement initiatives aimed at improving roadway safety for all users. Describe the problem(s) to be addressed, supported by current and relevant crash data. (most recent calendar year data/stats). Santa Ana consistently reports a higher-than-average rate of traffic crashes compared to other cities of similar size. These incidents frequently involve speeding, impaired driving, and failure to yield, posing a serious risk to the safety of all roadway users. Additionally, the city's dense neighborhoods and mixed-use areas result in increased pedestrian and bicycle activity, further compounding the risks of severe or fatal crashes. During 2024, the City of Santa Ana experienced 14 fatal traffic crashes involving pedestrians or bicycles. Data indicates that the city experiences a disproportionate number of crashes in specific high-traffic corridors and intersections. Vulnerable populations, including children, seniors, and economically disadvantaged residents, are particularly at risk due to limited access to safe infrastructure and transportation alternatives. Despite ongoing efforts, enforcement resources remain strained, limiting the Santa Ana Police Department’s ability to proactively address traffic safety concerns. In 2023, the city saw a decrease in the number of fatal traffic crashes; however, in 2024 the city experienced a record high of 31 fatal traffic crashes. A large portion of these crashes were pedestrians in the roadway, both at fault and not. There has been a large increase of pedestrian traffic within our city limits and many times the pedestrians are not using marked or unmarked crosswalks. The city has many large streets with multiple lanes and large gaps between intersections. This causes pedestrians to cross traffic in a dangerous manner and crashes occur. Santa Ana faces unique challenges related to traffic safety, with high volumes of vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian activity. The city's central location and major thoroughfares, including Interstate 5 and State Routes 22 and 55, contribute to significant commuter traffic. As a result, traffic safety remains a priority for the Santa Ana Police Department, which is committed to reducing crashes and enhancing the safety of all roadway users through proactive enforcement, education, and community engagement. Santa Ana continues to face dangerously high rates of traffic-related injuries and fatalities among bicyclists and pedestrians. According to the Office of Traffic Safety 2022 rankings, Santa Ana placed 6th out of 15 large cities for both bicyclist injuries and fatalities, with particularly concerning numbers among children and older adults. In addition, the City’s own Vision Zero Plan identifies Santa Ana as the 3rd highest among the 13 most populous California cities for bicyclist crashes and the 5th highest for pedestrian crashes. These ranking highlight a critical safety issue for vulnerable road users and underscore the urgent need for preventative measures. We currently have 100 helmets available and will properly fit and distribute them at local schools and community events. Providing helmets and properly fitting and distributing them is a direct City Council 1 – 11//202 9/15/2025 7:39:02 AM Page 5 of 24 and effective way to reduce the severity of injuries in crashes and promote safer riding practices throughout the community. Research consistently shows that helmets, when properly fitted, helmets are proven to significantly reduce the severity of head injuries in bicycle crashes. It is our goal to ensure that individuals receive appropriately sized helmets and be fitted correctly in order to maximizes safety im pact. Also, the top three primary crash factors are improper turning, unsafe speed, right of way. Improper movement resulted in 2 fatal crashes with 2 victims killed and causing an additional 227 crashes with 227. Unsafe speeding caused one fatal crash with one victim killed, as well as causing 357 crashes resulting in 357 victims injured. Right of way caused 308 crashes, with 309 victims injured. These factors highlight the urgent need for targeted strategies to reduce crashes and improve roadway safety f or all in our community. Define the target population the grant intends to serve and how they are affected by the problem(s). Santa Ana Police department will be implementing evidence-based traffic safety measures to significantly reduce the number of crashes at identified hotspots. This includes high visibility enforcement activities such as DUI Saturation, DUI/DL Checkpoints, among others. We will implement strategies to identify and address the issue of unlicensed drivers through education and enforcement; thereby reducing the risk of crashes caused by individuals without valid driving credentials. We will focus on pedestrian traffic incidents by implementing awareness campaigns and safety equipment distribution to ensure the safety of pedestrians and cyclists on city streets. We will establish community outreach programs to educate residents and commuters about the importance of traffic safety and garnering their support for sustainable, long -term changes. By addressing these key issues, Santa Ana Police Department seeks to create a safer and more efficient transportation environment in the City of Santa Ana, accommodating the daily influx of workers, addressing the challenge of unlicensed drivers, and improving the quality of life for its residents and providing services to the at-risk traffic parties within the City of Santa Ana. This includes all pedestrians, bicyclists, drivers, seniors, children, etc. The City of Santa Ana is densely populated and has a large pedestrian traffic presence and children walk to school every day in the neighborhoods. Our goal is to keep everyone on our roadways safe. 2. PERFORMANCE MEASURES A. Goals: 1. Reduce the number of persons killed in traffic crashes. 2.

Diaz #2567 Sep 16, 2025 City Council 14 – 26 11/4/2025 Police Department www.santa-ana.org/pd Item # 15 City of Santa Ana 20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701 Staff Report November 4, 2025 TOPIC: School Resource Officer Services for the Orange County School of the Arts AGENDA TITLE First Amendment to the Agreement with the Orange County School of the Arts for School Resource Officer Services RECOMMENDED ACTION Authorize the City Manager to execute the first amendment to the agreement with the Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA) for School Resource Officer (SRO) services to provide OCSA the opportunity to collaborate in the interview and approval process of the assigned officer, and increase the annual contingency amount by $50,000 for Year 2 and 3 totaling $100,000, for a total aggregate amount not to exceed $906,127, during the term of the agreement (Agreement No. A-2025-XXX). GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION On April 20, 2021, the City Council approved a three-year agreement with Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA) for the Santa Ana Police Department (SAPD) to provide school resource officer services from April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2024. OCSA, a public charter school located in the heart of Santa Ana, provides a six-year comprehensive academic and conservatory arts program to approximately 2,300 students, from over 100 cities throughout Southern California, covering grades 7 through 12. The Santa Ana Unified School District Police Department does not provide a School Resource Officer (SRO) on this campus, as this site is a charter school. OCSA requested to continue this relationship to enhance the safety of its students and faculty. The City Council approved another three-year agreement for this purpose on February 20, 2024 and the SAPD is currently in the middle of the second year of this agreement. OCSA is requesting two minor clarifications to the agreement: A collaborative process for officer assignment that allows OCSA to provide input, while SAPD retains final authority; City Council 15 – 1 11/4/2025 School Resource Officer Services for the Orange County School of the Arts November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 1 3 Language ensuring OCSA will not be billed the daily rate if the City cannot provide a substitute officer. Additionally, OCSA would like the option to request scheduled overtime for SRO coverage every Friday during the school year. The current annual contingency amount of $25,000 may not be sufficient to include the extra hours, in addition to coverage for various school events throughout the year. Increasing the contingency amount for Year 2 and 3 of the agreement from $25,000 to $75,000 per year will provide OCSA the flexibility for additional coverage, such as special events and enhanced staffing, and also allow the City to be reimbursed for the extra labor costs. These revisions strengthen transparency and reinforce the partnership between the City and OCSA without altering the scope of services. Staff recommends approval of the amendment. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. FISCAL IMPACT Reimbursement from OCSA will continue to be deposited in the Police Miscellaneous Reimbursement Revenue Account (No. 01114002-57402). EXHIBIT(S) 1.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION The Public Works Agency Engineering Services Division (PWA) is responsible for the administration and oversight of all capital improvement projects in the City including the planning, design, and management of its active transportation network. The Santa Ana Vision Zero Action Plan (Plan), adopted by City Council on June 4, 2024, is an initiative to eliminate fatalities and serious injuries in Santa Ana by 2040. Adoption of the plan was also a pre-requisite to apply for federal transportation grants, such as the Safe Streets for All program for Euclid Street improvements. When the Plan was adopted, City Council identified the need to amend the Plan by evaluating and incorporating additional corridors such as MacArthur Boulevard and Alton Avenue. Staff has performed preliminary evaluations and community outreach and recommends incorporating the following five additional priority corridors/street segments (1-2 miles long) into the framework: Flower Street from Warner Avenue to MacArthur Boulevard Edinger Avenue from Flower Street to Standard Avenue Segerstrom Avenue from Bear Street to Flower Street MacArthur Boulevard from Fairview Street to Main Street Dyer Road from Flower Street to the City Boundary City Council 16 – 1 11/4/2025 Santa Ana Vision Zero Update November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 0 7 Two new sample non-priority corridors/street segments (1-2 miles long) will also be included as part of the scope of work – Alton Avenue from Bristol Street to Bear Street and Bear Street from Segerstrom Avenue to MacArthur Boulevard. These non-priority segments will serve as examples for how Vision Zero based improvements may be incorporated into street improvement projects throughout the City. All seven new corridor/street segments were selected based on recent collision data, coupled with bicycle and pedestrian activity and are depicted in Figure 1 below. This expansion aims to enhance traffic safety measures, reduce traffic-related fatalities and severe injuries, and promote a more pedestrian and cyclist-friendly urban environment in more areas of the City of Santa Ana. Figure 1: Additional Priority Corridors/Segments Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 25-026 was issued on February 18, 2025 on the City’s online bid management and publication system, PlanetBids. A summary of vendor participation and results is as follows: 829 Vendors notified 37 Santa Ana vendors notified 45 Vendors downloaded the RFP packet 1 Proposal received 0 Proposals received from Santa Ana vendors Proposals were opened on March 4, 2025 and evaluated. Only one proposal was submitted by the RFP deadline and was determined to be responsive to the City Council 16 – 2 11/4/2025 Santa Ana Vision Zero Update November 4, 2025 Page 3 5 4 0 7 specifications and met the City’s requirements (Exhibit 1). An evaluation committee reviewed and rated the proposal in accordance with the criteria outlined in the RFP. Staff recommends awarding an agreement to KTU&A, LLC to conduct the Santa Ana Vision Zero Plan Update (Exhibit 2). As authors of the City Council-adopted Vision Zero Plan, KTU&A, LLC will provide continuity in team members, experience, and community involvement throughout the project. KTU&A, LLC is a California company specializing in active transportation, land use and multimodal transportation planning, and sustainability. KTU&A, LLC has demonstrated a depth of experience working with similar-sized California public agencies on a variety of projects including Vision Zero Plans, Active Transportation Plans, Complete Streets Projects, Safety Action Plans, and First/Last Mile Plans. As part of the study’s outreach efforts, staff will work closely with City Council through various meetings to ensure the recommendations align with the City’s goals and vision for citywide traffic safety. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. FISCAL IMPACT Funds are budgeted and available for expenditure in the following accounts for Fiscal Year 2025-26. Any remaining balances not expended at the end of the fiscal year will be presented to City Council for approval of carryovers to Fiscal Year 2026-27.

The analysis phase includes identifying contributing factors or patterns in the collision data, to locate specific hot spot locations, citywide trends, and best practices in traffic safety to identify solutions to evolve the roadway network in Santa Ana into one where roadway users can make transportation decisions and unanticipated mistakes without risk of severe injury or death . The plan utilized the FHWA-sanctioned Safe Systems approach to improve the safety across the network, using low-cost but highly effective countermeasures . KTUA provided data collection, analysis, GIS map production, and led the safety evaluation and field reviews for street segments and intersections that present the highest risk to vulnerable roadways users (bicyclists and pedestrians) . The prioritization of risk factors established included collision patterns, severity of injuries, and proximity to school, parks, and other pedestrian/bicycle generating uses . Based on the data collection, field review and collision analysis; counter- measures for proposed projects were recommended and CAD drawings were produced in AutoCAD for 20 corridors, segments, and intersections to mitigate potential future collisions and facilitate safe and comfortable trips for children’s travel to and from school .

The VZAP accomplishes the following: • Considers Vision Zero best practices, including policies, programs, and strategies, that are successful elsewhere and applicable to the City of El Monte • Develops a High-Injury Network (HIN) to identify corri- dors for bicycle and pedestrian improvements • Coordinates with existing road safety efforts underway in the City and Vision Zero initiatives elsewhere • Engages community stakeholders in setting the priori- ties for investment in Vision Zero strategies • Identifies partnership opportunities with public, private and non-profit organizations to advance Vision Zero strategies in the City • Refines existing and propose new metrics to track plan progress towards Vision Zero City Council 16 – 10 11/4/2025 SANTA ANA VISION ZERO PLAN UPDATE | 6 Firm teAm & exPerience | KtUA Project experienceD docUment: https://tinyurl.com/y7wgxv6b AWARDS: 2019 APA OC Transportation Planning Merit Award, 2019 SCAG Sustainability Award, Active, Healthy and Safe Communities, Central Santa Ana Complete Streets | 2016 APA Orange County Transportation and Best Practices Awards, Downtown Santa Ana Complete Streets Plan | 2015 ULI Orange County Sustainability Award, Downtown Santa Ana Complete Streets Plan City of Santa Ana Active Transportation Projects cLient City of Santa Ana Zed Kekula, Senior Civil Engineer 714-647-5606 ZKekula@santa-ana .org dAte oF PerFormAnce 2015-2019 (multiple projects) ServiceS Active Transportation Planning 3D Modeling Community Engagement ProJect FeeS comBined $649,196 KtUA KeY PerSonneL Joe Punsalan, Jacob Leon The Downtown Complete Streets study area focused on the connec- tions between the Regional Transpor- tation Center (SARTC) and Downtown . The area included a wide range of land uses and transportation modes . The plan provides recommendations for physical changes to streets, side- walks and intersections that supports safe, active transportation along and across the study area . A multi-lingual public outreach com- ponent included surveys, community advisory meetings, and a neigh- borhood workshop - a consecutive three-day workshop with walking and biking tours to gather input and intimately experience the Downtown area . Through the community engage- ment process, preliminary designs for five priority projects were developed, including concepts, 3D illustrations and costs estimates . KTUA continued the planning effort for Central Santa Ana Complete Streets and created StoryMaps to keep residents informed and to address technical topics . The city identified five existing corridors for the study with the goal of adding connections between them and adding new corri- dors for a complete network . Grassroots organizations were an integral component of the community engagement program from Central Santa Ana . Activities included tacti- cal urbanism with a demonstration cycle track and parklet, walking and biking tours, and a bus-walk tour combination, allowing participants to experience the City streets and transit firsthand and to provide insight on improvements that improve safety and enhance their quality of life . The eleven recommended corridors were selected based on public input, as well as in-depth analysis of land use and activity centers; existing and proposed bike and pedestrian facilities; street classifications; average daily trips; transit routes; and bike and pedestrian collisions . The recommended projects from the two Complete Streets plans served as the basis for grant funding applications. As a result, the city has obtained more than $20M in grants to prepare engineering and imple- mentation plans. The goal of the Santa Ana Active Transportation Plan was to create a walkable, bikeable, livable and vibrant city . The city has a good framework to support active transportation, including a strong grid network; a mixture of land use; an extensive sidewalk network and urban forest that increases comfort and estab- lishes a sense of place; a com- munity and business supported arts program; a demographic that would benefit from a connected multi-modal network; high transit use; and close proximity to the Santa Ana River . The city faced challenges to the implementation of a complete multi-modal network, including: high speed/high volume/ wide arterials with narrow side- walks and few pedestrian cross- ings; transit stops that lack shade and amenities; inadequate bicycle facilities; and generational chang- es between established business owners and a new era of retailers . The objectives of the plan were to: improve multi-modal safety and accessibility for all users; foster livable and healthy communities and promote social equity; provide balance for a complete multi-mod- al system; and create grant ready project fact sheets to enable the city to obtain design and imple- mentation funding .

The relative quality and quantity of mobility infrastruc- ture of the City is well-served by an aging but nominally sufficient pedestrian network, whereas safety and com- fort in accessing regional non-vehicular mobility options such as light rail, bus, and multipurpose paths is deficient . This is especially true for the disadvantaged communi- ties within the wealthier 80,000-person City of Upland, though public outreach efforts were challenged to reach this population . In-person and online outreach methods were employed through multiple channels, with metrics for tracking success in reaching these areas slowly and surely improving . Walk audits in these neighborhoods were key outreach endeavors for understanding issues and distributing more information about surveys and addi- tional opportunities for input . cLient City of Upland Alan French, Principal Engineer Upland Public Works Land Development & Transportation Division 909-931-4235 afrench@uplandca .gov ServiceS Active Transportation Planning Community Engagement StAtUS Ongoing 2025 ProJect Fee $269,862 KtUA Fee $155,170 KtUA KeY PerSonneL Joe Punsalan Alex Samarin Marina Varano Madeline Pysher Isabel Perez City Council 16 – 12 11/4/2025 SANTA ANA VISION ZERO PLAN UPDATE | 8 Firm teAm & exPerience | Subconsultant Profiles & Project experienceD LATINO HEALTH ACCESS Latino Health Access (LHA), was founded in 1993 . Our mission has two priorities: 1) de- livering culturally appropriate health-related services and programming to address urgent health concerns; and 2) engaging individuals in low-income, low opportunity areas in trans- forming their environment and creating positive, concrete changes in their homes and communities by providing tools, training, and mechanisms for civic participation . We firmly believe that achieving our vision of a healthy, equi- table, inclusive and prosperous community requires that community residents should be involved in every decision and every step of the process to create change . LHA’s official motto is “Participation Makes a Difference,” and we constantly reflect as an organization the importance of expanding opportunities for residents to participate in creating solutions and healthier communities . Our community-centered approach has helped the City of Santa Ana and the County to actively connect with hard- to-reach populations to be active participants of equitable active transportation policy and strategies . The activi- ties have been multi-generational at various community settings (e .g . schools, parks and trails, community-based organizational partners, neighborhoods, bus stops, trails, among others) . We have previously collaborated with mu- nicipalities and city staff from Santa Ana, Tustin, Newport, Costa Mesa, Los Alamitos, and Anaheim .

TASK 1 DELIVERABLES: • Meeting agendas, meeting minutes, updated schedules, invoices, and monthly progress reports TASK 2: DATA COLLECTION 2.1 data collection KTUA will collect data that will include, but not be limited to: traffic counts, collision data from the past ten years using the City’s Crossroads dataset, 85% tile posted speed limits, lane configurations, street classifications, traffic citations, street lighting, trees, transit stops, transit boarding/alighting, street crossings, and adjacent land uses . KTUA has many of these datasets in-house from work on the previous Com- plete Street and Active Transportation Plans, which will ex- pedite this process . Data collected from the existing Santa Ana Vision Zero Plan may be utilized, as needed . TASK 2 DELIVERABLES: • Technical Memorandum of data collection summary TASK 3: COMMUNITY OUTREACH SURVEYS AND STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT 3.1 develop community engagement Plan Long-time outreach partner Latino Health Access (LHA) will develop an Outreach and Engagement Plan (O&E Plan) outlining the selected approach to community outreach throughout the project . The O&E Plan will identify, and match outreach strategies based on stakeholder communication needs and their appropriate level of engagement . The O&E Plan will include key messages, schedules, and descrip- tions of outreach activities and opportunities, with emphasis placed on engagement methods to drive attendance at the workshops . The O&E Plan will describe the use of social media engagement opportunities and language translation/ needs, among other elements . The team will: • Develop key messages • Develop a stakeholder contact information database • Establish meeting dates and create materials, then disseminate meeting notice flyers via e-mail to neigh- borhood associations, community-based organizations, youth groups, schools, and churches for distribution to their members, per the O&E Plan; make follow-up phone calls to key organizations to confirm receipt, ask organi- zations to post on their websites and distribute through their social networks City Council 16 – 18 11/4/2025 SANTA ANA VISION ZERO PLAN UPDATE | 14 ProPoSed WorK PLAn/UnderStAnding oF need E • Solicit input from other relevant agencies and organi- zations at different phases in the development of the Vision Zero Action Plan Update, Santa Ana Unified School District, the Police Department and other local law enforcement agencies, etc . • E-mail notices to project database contacts 3.2 Workshops LHA has been ingrained in the community for many years and has built an extensive network to solicit feedback and gain trust with Santa Ana residents . LHA will lead promoting and organizing one (1) community workshop in each of the six (6) wards to gather input and feedback on safety concerns, priorities for improvements, and com- munity-specific needs related to the selected corridors . A total of six (6) workshops will be conducted as part of established community meetings, wherever possible . For the coordination, implementation and promotion of com- munity workshops, LHA will have constant communication with representatives of neighborhood associations and employees of the Santa Ana Neighborhood Initiatives and Environmental Services and attend its meetings . Time will be invested in promoting and inviting to community work- shops during in-person activities such as City and SAUSD community events, neighborhood association meetings, LHA and other partners classes and events, etc . The KTUA team will develop materials such as flyers, announcements, and social media messages to promote the workshop and garner online engagement to collect community feedback . Promotional material distribution will be conducted through the City’s existing social media accounts and LHA’s exten- sive network and platforms (Webpage, Facebook, Insta- gram, Newsletters) to collect community recommendations and to promote the community workshops, we will post the workshop flyers and modify the educational videos created in the last phase of SAVZ and use them again as an educa- tional tool that will allow us to inform the community about project and as an invitation to community workshops . We will also ask our community partners to promote flyers and videos on their social media platforms . TASK 3 DELIVERABLES: • Community Outreach and Engagement Plan • Outreach materials (flyers, announcements, social media messaging, etc .) • Community workshop materials and summaries Santa Ana community workshop TASK 4: ANALYSIS: 4.1 crash Analysis To conduct the collision analysis, KTUA will use guidance from the following sources: • Local Roadway Safety Manual (LRSM) • Systemic Safety Project Selection Tool • The Caltrans Systemic Safety Analysis Report Program (SSARP) Guidelines • The current SAVZ plan (to provide longitudinal consistency) Analysis will consist of a systematic review and study of the data collected, particularly the collisions within the past ten years (numbering more than 20,000 datapoints citywide) with a special focus on all pedestrian and bicycle-involved collisions . People walking and biking are more vulnerable than other road users and therefore giving them increased attention and countermeasures will more likely reduce fatality rates . The analysis will review collisions to identify correctable collision patterns such as, but not limited to: time of day, day of the week, lighting conditions, age of parties, year-by-year trends, primary collision factors, type of collisions, severity of injury, and fatalities . The first step in the collision analysis involves the selec- tion of focus collision types . In this case, focus collision types can be determined by the City based on the known prevalent collision types or causes . The focus will be on fatality and high injury collisions rather than Property Dam- age Only (PDO) crashes . The next step, selecting focus facilities, involves analyzing the physical characteristics of intersections and roadways associated with each collision to determine patterns in collision . TASK 4 DELIVERABLES: • Update SAVZ Update plan maps, tables, charts, graphics, text, etc . based on crash analysis, as needed City Council 16 – 19 11/4/2025 SANTA ANA VISION ZERO PLAN UPDATE | 15 ProPoSed WorK PLAn/UnderStAnding oF need E TASK 5: LOCATION PRIORITIZATION AND FIELD REVIEW 5.1 Project Selection Based on a review of the existing Vision Zero Action Plan’s collision analysis and identified projects, the KTUA team will work with the City and community to select five (5) new corridors/street segments that present the highest risk to vulnerable roadways users (bicyclists and pedestrians) . The selection process will be consistent with the Vision Zero Action Plan and select corridors that were not incorporat- ed into the original process . The selection process may include collision patterns, severity of injuries, and proximity to school, parks, or other pedestrian/bicycle generating uses . Additionally, two (2) other corridors will be identified based on discussions with City staff for a total of seven (7) projects . Up to three (3) site visits will be conducted for the selected corridors while school is in session at high-colli- sion rate segments or intersections . 5.2 develop corridor designs KTUA will host a focus call with City staff to discuss a rough outline of features to implement along the study corridors based on right-of-way and traffic constraints, traffic opera- tions, and desired improvements . The focus meeting will occur prior to the detailed development of the corridor concepts in AutoCAD . Subsequently, the KTUA team will develop corridor concept plans at the seven (7) identified corridors/street segments for 1-mile in length each . A total of seven (7) corridors will be designed for feasibility and grant pursuits . Each corridor segment will be developed at a scale of 1” = 50’ and shown on an aerial graphic using AutoCAD base drawings consistent with the Vision Zero Action Plan . Refer to the representative rendered concept plans previously prepared for the City . 5.3 corridor renderings To support these concepts, one (1) 3D cross-section will be developed for each corridor to illustrate the improvements which will also be used as part of the community engage- ment process . A total of seven (7) cross-section renderings will be developed .

Santa Ana Vision Zero exhibits and drawings/plans will incorporate the new corridors/street segments and align with current best practices in traffic safety . The team will review published research and the latest trends to identify potential countermeasures with the greatest potential to address collision types . The Highway Safety Manual (HSM) and Crash Modification Factors (CMF) Clearinghouse will be utilized heavily for this task . CMF factors will be used to estimate the expected number of collisions after imple- menting a given countermeasure at a specific intersection or MPAH corridor (the lower the CMF, the greater the expected reduction in collisions) . KTUA will use an innovative approach such as complete streets design, traffic calming measures, improved signage, enhanced crosswalks, and protected bike lanes . Strategies may include but are not limited to: • Implementation of traffic calming measures (speed humps/cushions, new or mod . traffic signals, etc .) • Enhanced crosswalks and pedestrian signals • Dedicated bike lanes or shared-use paths • Improved street lighting and signage • Implementation of landscaped concrete mediums TASK 7 DELIVERABLES: • List/table outlining safety strategies and interventions (countermeasures) TASK 8: IMPLEMENTATION PLAN 8.1 develop implementation Plan The KTUA team will create an updated implementation plan outlining the timeline, responsibilities, and budget for each safety strategies and interventions (countermeasure) .

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No , City Council 18 – 1 11/4/2025 Construction Contract for Traffic Signal Improvement Projects November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 0 8 DISCUSSION The Public Works Agency Engineering Services Division (PWA) is responsible for the administration and oversight of all Capital Improvements Projects (CIP) in the City. With the adoption of the fiscal year 2024-25 budget, the City Council allocated funds for traffic safety improvements at the intersections of Segerstrom Avenue and Raitt Street, Segerstrom Avenue and Flower Street, and Edinger Avenue and Towner Street. The traffic safety improvements will modify existing traffic signals and install a new pedestrian hybrid beacon to enhance safety and increase mobility for those traversing the intersections. At Segerstrom Avenue and Raitt Street and Segerstrom Avenue and Flower Street, the improvements will include installation of new left turn arrows to separate the turning vehicle movements from opposing vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists eliminating the potential for conflict. In addition, high visibility crosswalks and audible pedestrian signals (APS) will be installed to enhance visibility of crossing pedestrians and bicyclists at the intersection. The complete scope of work includes installation of new traffic signal poles, conduit, fiber optic cable, video detection system, APS system, emergency vehicle detection, signing and striping, and wheel chair ramps. At Edinger Avenue and Towner Street, the improvements will install a new pedestrian activated flashing beacon that will provide a controlled crossing for pedestrians to safely cross the intersection. Additionally, high visibility crosswalks with APS will be installed to enhance visibility of crossing pedestrians and bicyclists at the intersection. The complete scope of work includes installation of new traffic signal poles, conduit, fiber optic cable, video detection system, APS system, signing and striping, and wheel chair ramps. While General Funds have been allocated to fully fund these projects, an existing memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Irvine and recently approved development projects in the area will contribute to the cost of the improvements. These contributions will be collected at a later date in accordance with the respective agreements and traffic study mitigation requirements. The city of Irvine reclassified part of Redhill Avenue and went through the Master Plan of Arterial Highway amendment process. As part of this process, a traffic study identified a traffic impact to the intersection of Segerstrom Avenue & Flower Street. An MOU with the city of Irvine and Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) was approved by the City Council on July 1, 2025. As part of this MOU, Irvine will contribute $37,224 to this project. The MOU is currently being circulated by Irvine and OCTA for final signatures. Once fully executed, Staff will coordinate with Irvine to obtain the funding contribution. As part of the entitlement process for both the Bristol Related and the Village development projects, their respective operational traffic studies identified operational City Council 18 – 2 11/4/2025 Construction Contract for Traffic Signal Improvement Projects November 4, 2025 Page 3 5 4 0 8 traffic impacts at the Segerstrom Avenue & Flower Street Intersection. A fair share contribution was determined for each development project. Bristol Related will provide a 4.1% ($71,713) contribution due upon issuance of building permits for the third (last) phase of the project. The Village will contribute 4.32% ($75,561) due upon issuance of building permits for the fourth of five phases of the project. The contributions due will be adjusted for inflation to reflect present value at the time payment is received. Staff will coordinate with both developers to collect the fair-share contributions in a timely manner. As funding contributions are received, Staff will prepare an appropriation adjustment recognizing the revenue and present to City Council for approval in the future. Project Advertisement and Contractor Procurement To provide an opportunity for local vendors to submit bids, the City notified a total of 53 regional vendors via PlanetBids, many of which are Santa Ana based. Furthermore, staff specifically reached out to Santa Ana vendors to encourage their participation in bids. A total of seven bids were received. Zero bids were received from Santa Ana contractors. As legally required, a Notice Inviting Bids was advertised in the Orange County Register newspaper on August 20, 2025. The project was also advertised in PlanetBids from August 19, 2025 to September 17, 2025. Bids were received electronically via PlanetBids on September 17, 2025. No bid protest was submitted by any of the bidders during the bid protest period. A copy of construction plans, contracts, specifications, and all related reference materials (such as The Greenbook) are available for public review at the City’s Public Works Agency, Central Files office located in City Hall. Bid Results Summary RANK BIDDER’S NAME LOCATION BASE BID + ALTERNATES 1 Elecnor Belco Electric, Inc.Chino, CA $1,399,284 2 Select Electric, Inc.Anaheim, CA $1,545,590 3 Ferreira Construction Co.Rancho Cucamonga, CA $1,602,128 4 California Professional Engineering, Inc.La Puente, CA $1,713,661 5 International Line Builders, Inc.Corona, CA $1,729,709 6 Crosstown Electrical & Data, Inc.Irwindale, CA $1,769,396 7 Neema General Contracting El Cajon, CA $2,052,434 A total of seven bids were received and seven were deemed responsive. Elecnor Belco Electric, Inc. submitted the lowest responsive base bid in the amount of City Council 18 – 3 11/4/2025 Construction Contract for Traffic Signal Improvement Projects November 4, 2025 Page 4 5 4 0 8 $1,367,296 (Exhibit 2). As specified in the bid documents, the lowest bid shall be determined on the basis of the Base Bid. Based on available budget and the bid pricing for the additional bid alternatives, Staff recommends awarding a construction contract for the base bid plus additional alternates in the amount of $1,399,284. The bid alternates include installing Emergency Vehicle Preemption (EVP) systems for emergency vehicles like fire trucks and police cars; it works by allowing emergency vehicles to request a green light at an intersection which temporarily overrides the normal traffic signal to create a clear path and improve response times and safety. Based on the bid analysis and a contractor’s reference check, staff recommends awarding the construction contract to Elecnor Belco Electric, Inc. (Exhibit 3). Elecnor Belco Electric has previously performed work as a prime contractor in the City of Santa Ana within the past five years, including ARPA Neighborhood Streetlights – Phase 1, ARPA Neighborhood Streetlights – Phase 2, and Traffic Signal Modification at Warner Avenue and Wright Street. The contractor has satisfactorily performed these projects and staff recommends awarding the construction contract to Elecnor Belco Electric, Inc. for the construction of the Project. (Exhibit 3) Project Delivery To deliver a complete project, in addition to the construction contract, the estimated total project delivery cost includes a budget allocation for construction administration, inspection, and testing. Construction administration and inspection may be performed by either Staff or consultants and includes construction management, inspection of the Contractor’s work to ensure contract compliance, workmanship and quality, materials testing, and implementation of the labor requirements. Any of the allocated construction administration funds not spent are considered project savings and are returned to the respective fund balance upon close out of the project. As indicated in the Cost Analysis and as summarized in the table below, the estimated total construction delivery cost of the project is $1,749,105.

Authorize the City Manager to submit selected projects to the Orange County Transportation Authority for inclusion into the 2027 Federal Transportation Improvement Program. 2. Adopt a Resolution certifying that the City has the resources to fund the projects submitted for inclusion into the 2027-2032 Federal Transportation Improvement Program, and confirm the City’s commitment to implement all projects submitted to the program. RESOLUTION NO. 2025-XXX entitled A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA CERTIFYING THAT THE CITY HAS THE RESOURCES TO FUND PROJECTS IN THE 2026/27 - 2031/32 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM AND AFFIRMING THE CITY’S COMMITMENT TO IMPLEMENT ALL PROJECTS IN THE PROGRAM GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No DISCUSSION The Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) is the primary programming and implementation process for projects identified in the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), administered by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG). The FTIP lists projects and identifies funding sources for every regionally significant transportation project that receives federal or state funds. Regionally, the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) serves as the coordination and oversight agency working with SCAG to prioritize and fund FTIP projects which include highway improvements, transit, rail and bus facilities, high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes, signal synchronization, intersection improvements, freeway ramps, non-motorized projects, and City Council 19 – 1 11/4/2025 Resolution to Carry Over Existing Funds to the 2027 FTIP November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 3 8 8 bicycle, pedestrian, and safety improvements. Locally, FTIP funded projects include the Santa Ana Boulevard Grade Separation, the Fairview bridge replacement, and various bike lane and pedestrian mobility safety improvement projects. See Exhibit 2 for a detailed list of the 18 FTIP projects that will be carried over to the 2027 Federal Fiscal Year. OCTA has requested that all agencies countywide carry over all federally funded projects from the existing FTIP to the 2027 FTIP if project completion occurs after 2025. The FTIP carry- over occurs every two years and marks the adoption of the new cycle and is necessary in order to maintaining funding for completing local projects. To maintain eligibility of allocated federal funds, the City is required to adopt a Resolution (Exhibit 1) listing projects to be included or amended in the FTIP and submit to OCTA by November 21, 2025. Ultimately, the City cannot receive California Transportation Commission funding allocation approval for these projects without the requested Council- approved Resolution. The recommended actions would authorize the City Manager to request that the OCTA carry over federally funded projects or projects subject to a federally required action, including regionally significant projects, from the current FTIP to the 2027 FTIP (Exhibit 2). The federal fund sources for those projects include Active Transportation Program (ATP); Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation (HBRR); Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ); and Demonstration (DEMO) grant funds. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. FISCAL IMPACT Matching funds for the referenced projects have either already been budgeted and are available for expenditure, or they are programmed to be budgeted in future fiscal years from accounting units 14817613 (Active Transportation Program), 14817614 (Active Transportation Program Augment), 14817615 (Active Transportation Program-Federal), and 05917660 (Select Street Construction). The projects are in varying stages of completion and for some projects the City’s match requirement has been fulfilled.

Direct staff to incorporate approved Comprehensive Transportation Funding Program projects into the Seven-Year Capital Improvement Program for Fiscal Year 2026-27. GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No DISCUSSION In 2006, Orange County voters approved Measure M2 that extends a 0.5% sales tax in Orange County. Every time residents and visitors in Orange County make a taxable purchase, a half cent for every dollar spent is received by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) to administer these funds for the implementation of transit and transportation improvement projects. In total, OCTA expects to receive City Council 20 – 1 11/4/2025 Resolutions for the Fiscal Year 2026-27 Measure M2 Comprehensive Transportation Program Grant Applications November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 0 3 approximately $14 billion over the 30-year period that Measure M2 is in effect (2011- 2041). OCTA collects this revenue and distributes it as shown in the graphic below: Santa Ana receives direct funding from the Streets component of Measure M2 in two categories, Local Fair-Share (formulaic distribution) and Competitive Grants. In order to qualify for both categories, Orange County cities must adhere to strict requirements and satisfy 13 eligibility categories. On September 8, 2025, OCTA issued a Call for Projects for the Measure M2 Comprehensive Transportation Funding Program (CTFP) for Fiscal Year 2026-27 through 2028-29. Approximately $42 million will be available for award on a countywide, competitive grant basis via the Regional Capacity Program (Project O) for Arterial Capacity Enhancements (ACE), Intersection Capacity Enhancements (ICE), and the Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Program (Project P). The CTFP is the mechanism by which OCTA administers competitive grant funding for street and road projects. Staff proposes to submit applications totaling over $12.1 million in grant funding requests, which includes all project phases and requires a local match commitment of 25% for Project O, and 20% for Project P. If awarded, the existing and future local funding sources, including but not limited to Transportation System Improvement Area funds (TSIA), Gas Tax funds, and Measure M2 Fairshare funds, will be used to provide the required matching funds for the recommended projects to be budgeted in the FY 2026-27 Capital Improvement Program (CIP).

On November 18, 2014, City Council authorized staff to submit the Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Measure M2 CTFP application for ACE funding, which included design funds for Fairview Street Improvements from 9th Street to 16th Street to supplement the bridge replacement project over the Santa Ana River. Then, on November 17, 2020, City Council authorized staff to submit the 2021-2022 Measure M2 CTFP application for ACE funding, which included Right-of-Way funds. Additionally, on November 16, 2021, City Council authorized staff to submit the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Measure M2 CTFP application for ACE funding, which included design funds for Fairview Street Improvements Project from 17th Street to Trask Avenue. Then, on November 19, 2024, the City Council authorized staff to submit the 2025-2026 Measure M2 CTFP application for ACE funding, which included Right-of-Way funds. Staff is requesting Construction funds for both projects in this year’s application. Given the need to complete the street improvements project and the project eligibility requirements defined by OCTA, staff recommends that the City Council adopt two Resolutions (Exhibits 1 and 2) authorizing submittal of the Project O and Project P CTFP application for funding consideration, as well as direct staff to incorporate approved projects into the FY 2026 Seven-Year CIP. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with the action. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action at this time. The City will recognize grant award revenue, inclusive of required City local match, through future Council action during the 2026-27 CIP budget programing cycle.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No DISCUSSION Staff recommends that the City Council approve revisions to the City’s adopted Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures (“Policies”) to prevent situations in which the Council is asked to approve a “pre-loan commitment” or “pre-loan commitment letter” if the project is not consistent with the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Classification. The proposed revisions aim to ensure that funding decisions occur only if the project is consistent with these foundational regulatory frameworks, thereby avoiding the appearance that project outcomes are predetermined and strengthening the transparency and integrity of the City’s review and decision- making process. This recommendation is responsive to a conflict situation highlighted by a recent proposal submitted to the Community Development Agency (“CDA”) by Habitat for Humanity of Orange County (“Habitat”). The Habitat proposal requests a pre-loan commitment by the City to a housing project with more units proposed on a property than permissible under the existing General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Classification, thereby requiring Planning Commission and City Council approval of a zone change and general plan amendment. Even though the pre-loan commitment is consistent with past practices and the approval would have a condition that the project developer must obtain all necessary land use approvals and entitlements from the City, in this situation, the pre-loan commitment puts the City Council in a position of having to approve funding even though the project is not consistent with the General Plan Land Use Element and the Zoning Classification and has not undergone the public decision- making process. City Council 21 – 1 11/4/2025 Adopt an Amendment to the Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 1 6 Revising the Policy as shown in the text below (underlined & strikethrough) would require a determination from the Executive Director of the Planning and Building Agency to certify that the project is consistent with the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Classification. This determination would need to be issued prior to a pre- loan commitment letter’s approval in order to strengthen the transparency and integrity of the City’s decision-making process, and ensure consistency with the General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Classification. Projects that are consistent with the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Classification, but require approvals including, but not limited to, a Tentative Tract Map, Design Review, Conditional Use Permit, Density Bonus Agreement, and entitlements of a similar nature, can proceed with a pre-commitment letter following the determination by the Executive Director of the Planning and Building Agency. Recommended Revisions to Section IV. Pre-Loan Commitment of the Policies: “Following the RFP Process, Proposal Review, Determination of Reasonable Costs and Financial Feasibility, and the proposed project has received a determination from the Executive Director of the Planning and Building Agency that the proposed project is consistent with the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Classification conditional on meeting the other requirements and conditions outlined above, a pre-loan commitment letter may be drafted by the Housing Division, reviewed and approved by the Housing Division Manager, the City Attorney’s Office, and the Executive Director of Community Development, before being recommended for approval. For the purposes of this Policy, the Executive Director of the Planning and Building Agency shall evaluate consistency with the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Classification based on the proposed project’s land use, maximum proposed floor area ratio (FAR), and maximum proposed dwelling units per acre (du/ac). FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. EXHIBIT(S) 1. Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures (Underline and Strikethrough Version) Submitted By: Michael L.

INTRODUCTION The City of Santa Ana provides financial assistance to support the acquisition, rehabilitation, and new construction of properties to preserve and increase affordable housing opportunities for lower income households through the following Programs: • Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund (Housing Successor Agency Fund) including land assets owned by the Housing Successor Agency • Inclusionary Housing Fund • HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) • Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG) • Project-Based Voucher Program (PBV) Under these Funds and Programs (“Programs”), the City provides deferred payment loans and/or grants to bridge the financial gap between available resources, including the borrower's/grantee’s equity and private financing, and the costs of developing affordable multi-family housing. The Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures (“Policies and Procedures”) provides an overview of the types and terms of loans which are available, proposal requirements, review procedures, selection criteria, loan commitment and closing procedures, and project monitoring and reporting requirements of these varied Programs within one comprehensive source of reference. [Throughout this document, loans and grants may be referred to collectively as “loans” except when the terms are unique to a loan or to a grant.] These requirements are minimum requirements for participation in City Programs and are subject to approval by City Council. Meeting these requirements does not guarantee participation in any Program. The City reserves the right to require additional qualifications for individual projects. The City reserves the right to reject any and all proposals. At a minimum these Policies and Procedures will be compared and reviewed to the City’s progress to achieve the goals in the Housing Element each year. If it is determined that the City is not making adequate progress to achieve the goals of the Housing Element, staff will review these Policies and Procedures to determine whether they should be amended to more effectively achieve the goals of the Housing Element. These Programs are administered by the Housing Division of the City of Santa Ana (under the direct supervision of the Housing Division Manager, the direction of the Executive Director of Community Development, and the general supervision of the City Manager). These Policies and Procedures should be interpreted in conjunction with Federal, State, and City statutes and regulations governing the use of these funds. In the event of a conflict between these Policies and Procedures and such statutes and regulations, the requirements of those statutes and regulations shall prevail. All projects must comply with all applicable statutes and regulations, which may include federal requirements contained in 24 CFR 92, 570, 982, and 983, including, but not limited to, environmental reviews, labor and wage requirements, debarred contractors, lead-based paint and equal opportunity. Leveraging of City dollars (to the extent possible) with outside funding sources will continue to be a priority to preserve and increase affordable housing opportunities for low income households. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 9 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 8 II. TYPES OF LOANS AND GRANTS Program funds may be used for development loans for the following eligible purposes: (1) The purchase of existing multi-family or other buildings for rent or sale to low- and very low-income households and for the development of congregate housing for rent to low- and very low-income persons with special needs (e.g. homeless individuals and families, elderly, persons with a disability). Except for congregate housing, existing buildings shall consist of four or more units, unless the Housing Division Manager finds that a substantial public benefit will be provided by a project consisting of less than 4 units. (2) The purchase or lease of land and buildings for new construction or rehabilitation of housing that may utilize available State and Federal housing assistance programs such as Low-Income Housing Tax Credits, the Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program, tax-exempt bond financing, Section 811 Supportive Housing Program, and/or other available State and Federal programs. (3) The development of limited-equity housing cooperatives through either conversion or new construction. (4) The provision of interim loan funds for any of the above purposes prior to the funding of a public or private loan. Eligible development costs for the above uses include, but are not necessarily limited to: a. site acquisition and preparation; b. rehabilitation of dwelling units, common areas and related structures; c. new construction; d. carrying charges and financing fees; e. architectural, legal, and organizational fees; f. temporary or permanent tenant relocation costs; and g. developer fees consistent with the policies described in Section IV below. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 10 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 9 III. PROPOSAL SUBMITTAL AND REVIEW PROCEDURES Proposal Submittal All Proposals for Program funds shall be submitted to the Housing Division and shall be reviewed and recommended for approval to the Community Redevelopment and Housing Commission for its review and recommendation for City Council or Housing Authority approval through a transparent, open and competitive selection and review process as established in this section. The competitive selection process will begin with a determination by Housing Division staff that the City has sufficient Available Funds to develop one or more affordable housing projects. If the City has sufficient Available Funds to develop one or more projects, the Housing Division, upon City Council approval, will issue a Request for Proposals (RFP), Request for Qualifications (RFQ) or Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA), collectively referred to as the “RFP Process” for a certain amount of Available Funds. The RFP Process will be open (“Open RFP Process”) and provide sufficient time for applicants to identify an eligible site and complete and submit a proposal in response to the RFP announcement. It will also align with annual funding cycles through the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Program. The RFP Process will be open for at least one year with four (4) quarterly deadlines to submit a proposal scheduled throughout the year. The RFP Process will be announced through notices to the following parties: • Interested Developers and Nonprofit Organizations on the Housing Division’s RFP Process Database o Developers and Nonprofit Organizations interested in being added to the RFP Process Database can do so by contacting the City’s Housing Division • Other affordable housing membership association resources (e.g. Southern California Association of Nonprofit Housing, Kennedy Commission, 2-1-1 OC) • Public Notice in the local newspaper • Published on www.Planetbids.com Proposals must meet the minimum requirements outlined in the RFP Process to ensure compliance with available funding sources’ regulations and requirements. Proposals will be received from qualified firms for projects consistent with the requirements of the Available Fund(s) issued through the RFP Process. Proposals shall not exceed the amount of the City’s total Available Funds as published on a quarterly basis in the Housing Division Quarterly Report. A Qualified Developer (an “Applicant”) shall complete and submit to the Housing Division the Proposal for Program funds and prepare all required attachments and exhibits, including, but not limited to, the project proforma, budget, sources and uses, project management plan, tenant selection and marketing plan, relocation plan (if applicable), signed purchase agreement and escrow instructions, preliminary title report, and limited partnership documents (if applicable). Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 11 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 10 Proposal Review After each deadline for the Open RFP Process, the Housing Division staff shall review the Proposal to determine that the minimum Program and RFP Process requirements are met (minimum threshold review). Proposals that do not meet the minimum threshold review will be considered non-responsive. If the Proposal meets the minimum threshold review, the Housing Division will form a Review Panel. The Review Panel for the RFP Process will consist of at least one employee from the City’s Public Works Agency, Planning and Building Agency, and Community Development Agency and one outside agency or government -entity. If an employee is not available in one department, a second employee may be requested from one of the other two departments so long as there are at least two of the three City Agencies represented on the Review Panel. Using the scoring and selection criteria provided in the RFP Process and provided below, the Review Panel shall determine whether the proposal is recommended for a pre-loan commitment, with or without conditions. Including the scoring and selection criteria, the Review Panel shall review the design of the proposed project for appropriateness for the proposed target group, compatibility with surrounding uses, cost effectiveness of construction, and appropriateness of the design and construction for low maintenance and long term durability. Proposed projects must receive a minimum threshold score of 75 points to move forward with the proposal review process. If the Review Panel determines, in its discretion, that the Proposal may be recommended for approval, the Housing Division shall request an underwriting and subsidy layering review by a real estate advisor selected by the City. The real estate advisor shall confirm the underwriting for the Project, the financial gap, and other programmatic requirements related to the funding sources. If the Review Panel determines that the Proposal will not be recommended for approval (i.e. the Proposal does not meet the minimum threshold score of 75 points), the Developer will be notified in writing of the decision and the result will be published in the Housing Division Quarterly Report. City Council Initiated Proposal Review A Developer may submit a request for a sole source award of funding directly to the City Council (the request cannot exceed the amount of the City’s total Available Funds as published on a quarterly basis in the Housing Division Quarterly Report). At least one Councilmember must then submit a written request to staff to review the Developer’s proposal. After a written request has been received, staff will request a complete proposal from the Developer. After the proposal has met a minimum threshold review by staff, the project will undergo an underwriting and subsidy layering review analysis by a real estate advisor selected by the City, to be paid for by the Developer. After the analysis has been completed, staff will present the real estate advisor’s analysis and the proposal to City Council for direction without any recommendation(s) from staff on funding or not funding the project. If City Council requests a second real estate analysis to be conducted, the City will pay for the second analysis, not the developer. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 12 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 11 By-Right Funding for Achieving City Goals and Objectives If at any time a developer proposes a project that is located in a zoning district permitting development of residential uses “by-right” and such approvals do not require any discretionary actions by the City, the developer may submit an application for by-right funding of extremely low-income affordable housing units. Staff may then form a Review Panel to consider the developer’s application for by-right funding as quickly as possible using the scoring and selection criteria from the Open RFP Process. This policy will expedite consideration of the developer’s application for by-right funding. Only units serving households at 30% Area Median Income and below may qualify for by-right funding under this application process. The maximum per unit subsidy shall not exceed the maximum limits established by HUD for the HOME Program at the time of submission of the application for by-right funding by the developer. Applications for by-right funding may only request Inclusionary Housing Funds from the City under the above-described process and the requested amount shall not exceed the amount of the City’s total Available Funds as published quarterly in the Housing Division Quarterly Report. However, funding is subject to the availability of actual Inclusionary Housing Funds. Additionally, the City reserves the right to amend these policies at any time, which could affect the availability of such funding, or to deny funding for any project that the City determines in its sole discretion does not align with the City’s goals and objectives for this program. Three-Year Goals for By-Right Funding Proposals: The City of Santa Ana has established the following Goals for the next three years, to be evaluated on an annual basis, for proposals submitted under this section. The Goals are linked to the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) per the City’s Housing Element and based upon what affordable housing development projects that the City has in the pipeline for development and estimates/goals for Year 3: Year # of Extremely Low- Income Units at 30% AMI # of Very Low-Income Units at 50% AMI # of Low-Income Units at 80% AMI 1 54 111 9 2 54 33 38 3 115 82 34 TOTAL 223 226 81 Competitive Selection Criteria In selecting among competing project proposals, consideration shall be given to projects that meet the following General Principles: • Significantly increase affordable housing opportunities for large families (three- and four- bedroom units). • Benefit a higher percentage of units for extremely low-income households with deeper affordability. • Are cost effective with low operating costs (green building techniques). • Increase affordable housing opportunities for special needs populations, including homeless individuals and families, persons with a disability, and seniors. • Are located in areas currently underserved by affordable housing developments.

The in-lieu fees collected by the City are City funds over which the City has complete and absolute discretion”. If a Developer chooses to provide input on the allocation of their in-lieu fees, input must be submitted in writing within no more than 90 calendar days from the date payment of the in-lieu fees are deposited with the City. The Developer’s request will be worth up to five (5) bonus points awarded to the applicant within the RFP Process through the Competitive Selection Criteria provided above. The bonus points do not guarantee that the project will be funded with the in-lieu fees paid by the Developer that provided the input. Determination of Reasonable Costs and Financial Feasibility A real estate advisor shall review the Applicant's estimates and projections of rents, expenses, reserves and development costs in accordance with industry-standard underwriting guidelines. The Applicant shall provide a proforma and background documentation on all costs for the analysis, as requested by the City. The City may recommend adjustments to cost and expense amounts as appropriate to conform to current market and industry standards. The total amount of the Program loan and all private loans shall not exceed the total development costs approved by the City. The maximum allowable purchase price shall not exceed the appraised value as evidenced by an appraisal prepared by a California State Certified General Appraiser and approved by the Housing Division, which is dated not more than six (6) months prior to the date of the proposal. The appraisal may not determine property value based solely on sales of properties financed by public agencies. The maximum affordable mortgage amount shall be calculated using the rent schedule proposed by the Applicant as approved by the City, the proposed interest rate and terms of the primary loan(s), and reasonable operating allowances and reserves, including a reserve to amortize a mortgage, as needed. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 15 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 14 The requested City loan for a project shall not exceed the total amount of the gap between the maximum affordable mortgage amount available from non-City sources plus funds available from other sources of public subsidy, and the total development costs plus any on-going annuity necessary to maintain affordable rent levels as defined in the Proposal. All assisted units must maintain rents that do not exceed the Maximum Affordable Rent, as defined in the Loan Documents, for the life of the loan in accordance with the terms of the loan or other recorded Covenants. Syndicated projects must be structured such that ownership can feasibly be acquired by the nonprofit General Partner at the end of the term of the limited partnership agreement, when appropriate. When determining the maximum City loan, the real estate advisor will review the rent schedule and annual cash flows to determine whether long- term affordability is maintained. In cases where a rent subsidy program is used and the mortgage is calculated on the basis of the subsidized rents, an "affordability reserve" may be required, where the amount of the reserve shall be sufficient to cover the difference between affordable rents and the subsidized rents. Developer Fee For new construction, acquisition and rehabilitation projects utilizing Low-Income Housing Tax Credits, the developer fee shall not exceed the maximum fee allowed by the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee. The Housing Division Manager may require the developer to defer a portion of their developer fee, based upon an analysis by the real estate advisor, to make the project feasible, reduce the amount of Program funds being requested for the project, or both. Developer Capacity Applicants must demonstrate the capacity to successfully develop the proposed project. The City shall evaluate capacity on the basis of the Applicant’s track record in developing and managing affordable housing, or inclusion of development team members with a successful record in developing such housing. In addition, Applicants must demonstrate the financial and legal capacity to undertake the proposed project. Clear Title The Applicant shall have the responsibility to obtain clear title to the property. As soon as feasible, the Applicant will submit a preliminary title report for City review and written approval. Staff shall review the state of title, including the conditions, covenants, restrictions, and legal description of the property. In the case of title issues, the Applicant shall correct the state of title and remove all exceptions to the title not consented to by the City before the City closes the loan. Senior Financing The Applicant shall secure other resources such as equity from syndication proceeds, tax exempt financing, federal and state housing rental and development subsidies and available private financing to minimize the amount of the City loan. The Applicant will submit to the City the terms and conditions of all non-City financing as well as equity contributions for review. The Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 16 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 15 Applicant must submit projected cash flows for the term of the loan, showing the maximum possible increases (i.e. worst case scenario) in debt service per year, the projected rent and expense increases, the means of making up any deficits, and projected payments of Residual Receipts. The real estate advisor shall analyze the feasibility of the project to carry the loan(s), and if feasible will review the terms of the non-City financing. The City may, at its sole discretion, calculate the mortgage amount at the terms and rates of available financing programs other than that proposed by the Borrower, if alternative terms and rates are available that would reduce the amount of City subsidy required, and would otherwise conform to the City/Agency requirements. Management and Affirmative Marketing Plan The Applicant shall prepare a Project Management Plan for City review and approval. The Plan shall describe the Applicant's policies and procedures concerning: (1) Affirmative marketing and tenant selection procedures, including proposal procedures, prioritization of Santa Ana residents and workers (see Local Preference section below) where possible; waiting lists, and lease agreements; and marketing efforts and tenant selection procedures that will be used to attract eligible persons from all racial, ethnic and gender groups, as well as persons living with disabilities, in the housing market area to the available housing opportunities. The Plan should describe the protocols for keeping records of affirmative marketing activities and for keeping records of requests (from applicants and existing tenants) for all units assisted with affordable housing funds; (2) Procedures for determining tenant eligibility and certifying incomes. The Plan should demonstrate sufficient outreach to disability-related service providers to ensure that accessible units are occupied to the extent possible by those households who need the accessibility features due to disability. The Plan should demonstrate that the Developer conducted sufficient outreach to persons that meet the qualifications identified in the Local Preference section below. An outreach plan and results from outreach efforts should be maintained by the developer and available to submit to the City upon request; (3) Management/tenant relations and assistance to tenant organizations, including the training and use of tenants to perform maintenance and management functions as appropriate; (4) Maintenance and repair services; (5) On-site management facilities; (6) Rent collection; (7) Records and reporting requirements; (8) Personnel and staffing; (9) Compliance with all tenant protection laws, including Building and Health and Safety Codes; (10) Fee schedule; and (11) Any other relevant issues requested by the City to be addressed. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 17 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 16 No person shall on the grounds of race, marital status, sex, color, age, religion, national origin, ancestry, immigration status, physical disability, AIDS, sexual orientation, or any other protected class, be excluded from participating in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity funded in whole or in part with these funds. Local Preference Local preference for Santa Ana residents and workers in tenant selection shall be a requirement of the City’s Affordable Housing Funds and Programs. Local preference shall be a requirement of the HOME, CDBG, and PBV Programs only if permitted by the federal government. In evaluating a loan request, staff shall evaluate a loan applicant’s effectiveness in achieving the City’s local preference goals and give priority to those loan applicants who administer their wait lists using sorting protocols which result in outcomes where households who live or work in Santa Ana are beneficiaries of City-funded affordable housing. Subject to applicable tenant income limits and any preferences required by the laws of the United States or the State of California (including, but not limited to, laws and regulations governing nondiscrimination and preferences in housing occupancy), the Borrower shall give preference in leasing units in the following order of priority: 1. First priority shall be given to persons who have been permanently displaced or who face permanent displacement from housing in Santa Ana as a result of any of the following: a. A redevelopment project undertaken pursuant to California’s Community Redevelopment Law (Health & Safety Code Sections 33000, et seq.) -- applicable only to projects funded by the Low-Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund. b. Ellis Act, owner-occupancy, or removal permit eviction; c. Earthquake, fire, flood, or other natural disaster; d. Cancellation of a Housing Choice Voucher HAP Contract by property owner; or e. Governmental Action, such as Code Enforcement. 2. Second priority shall be given to persons who are either: a. Residents of Santa Ana and/or b. Working in Santa Ana at least 32 hours per week for at least the last 6 months. c. Persons who seek to reside in Santa Ana as an accommodation to a mental or physical disability. Regarding any “accessible units” that are required as part of a multifamily development, such accessible units should be first offered to existing occupants of the building (if applicable) who are not occupying an accessible unit and who have indicated a need for the features of an accessible unit. If no existing occupants of the building have indicated the need for the features of an accessible unit, or if the building is being leased for the initial occupancy, then such accessible units should first be offered to applicants who have indicated the need for the features of an accessible unit, inclusive of the preferences above. The application of preferences may not conflict with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 24 C.F.R. §100.202, and any other preemptive laws that may be enacted regarding fair housing for persons living with disabilities. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 18 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 17 “Accessible units” refers to those units which were originally approved by the City specifically as accessible units and which provide specific features to address the needs of persons living with mobility impairments or persons living with sensory impairments. Environmental Review Project sites must be free from adverse environmental impacts or the proposed project must successfully mitigate these impacts. The City shall assess the environmental effects of each activity proposed to be carried out with City funding in accordance with the provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as applicable. For projects subject to NEPA review, no loan funds (except for activities normally exempted from the environmental clearance requirements in 24 CFR Part 58.34) shall be released until the environmental review is completed, the notice of finding and environmental assessment results are published, and the 15-day public comment period expires. Prevailing Wages Any contract for construction (rehabilitation or new construction) of affordable housing with 12 or more units assisted with HOME Program funds, 8 or more units if the project is assisted with CDBG Program funds, or 9 or more units if the project is assisted with PBV Program funds, must contain a provision requiring that not less than the prevailing wages paid in the locality, as determined by the Secretary of Labor pursuant to the Davis-Bacon Act, will be paid to all laborers and mechanics employed in the development of the project. Contractors and subcontractors must comply with regulations issued under this Act and pertaining to labor standards and HUD Handbook 1344.1. Relocation If necessary, the Applicant shall develop a plan for temporary relocation or permanent voluntary relocation, where necessary, for review by the City. The Relocation Plan shall be in accord with the requirements of the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, and the implementing regulations at 24 CFR Part 42, and the California Relocation Assistance Act, where applicable. There shall be no permanent involuntary tenant displacement. In cases where tenants will be voluntarily displaced, the Applicant must submit a copy of a letter to each tenant which details the tenant’s rights to relocation assistance. In the case of a tenant’s waiver of relocation payments, the Applicant must submit a letter signed by the tenant indicating the tenant’s knowing and voluntary waiver of any relocation assistance. In the absence of these items, the Applicant/“other displacing entity,” as that term is defined under applicable state or federal law will be responsible for paying the tenant the appropriate level of relocation assistance. Contracting Requirements All Applicants will be required to submit an affirmative action/equal employment opportunity plan indicating the methods that they will use to encourage the participation of certified Minority Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 19 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 18 Business Enterprise/Women Owned Business Enterprise (MBE/WBEs) in their development project. City staff will review the plan and competitive bid and selection process to ensure that required procedures have been followed. City staff will also monitor construction to ensure that MBE/WBEs are participating in the project as indicated in the construction contract. All work shall be completed by State-licensed contractors which shall have Santa Ana business licenses. All contracts must comply with competitive bidding requirements. All efforts shall be made by the private owner or the Borrower to provide equal opportunity for employment without discrimination as to race, marital status, sex, color, age, religion, national origin, ancestry, physical disability, AIDS, sexual orientation, or any other protected class, in seeking contractors and subcontractors. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 20 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 19 IV.PRE-LOAN COMMITMENT Pre-Loan Commitment Following the RFP Process, Proposal Review, Determination of Reasonable Costs and Financial Feasibility, and the proposed project has received a determination from the Executive Director of the Planning and Building Agency that the proposed project is consistent with the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Classification, conditional on meeting the other requirements and conditions outlined above, a pre-loan commitment letter may be drafted by the Housing Division, reviewed and approved by the Housing Division Manager, the City Attorney’s Office, and the Executive Director of Community Development, before being recommended for approval. For the purposes of this Policy, the Executive Director of the Planning and Building Agency shall evaluate consistency with the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and Zoning Classification based on the proposed project’s land use, maximum proposed floor area ratio (FAR), and maximum proposed dwelling units per acre (du/ac). The letter shall state the maximum amount of program funds reserved for the project and list all of the additional conditions, documents and steps that must be taken by the Borrower prior to loan closing. After the pre-loan commitment letter has been drafted, staff will prepare a written staff report recommending a commitment of funds for a proposal and explaining the reasons for the commitment. The recommendation will be made first by the Housing Division to the Community Redevelopment and Housing Commission (CRHC) to issue the commitment of program funds to the project in the form of an award of program funds. If recommended by the CRHC to City Council, a recommendation will then be made by the Housing Division to the City Council and/or Housing Authority for final approval of the commitment of program funds by motion adopted by the affirmative votes of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the members. If approved by City Council and/or the Housing Authority, a notice of the issuance of the pre- loan commitment shall be posted publicly, and a copy of such notice shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation, no later than 21 days after the commitment is issued. Upon issuance of a pre-loan commitment letter, the Housing Division shall work with the Developer to secure all of their remaining financing. If the conditions and projections for the project rent schedule or non-City loans changes or is modified after the pre-loan commitment letter is issued, a second underwriting and subsidy layering analysis will be conducted by a real estate advisor. Conflict of Interest No person who is an employee, agent, consultant, officer, or elected official or appointed official of the City who exercises or has exercised any function or responsibility regarding activities assisted with Program funds or who is in a position to participate in a decision making process or gain inside information concerning these activities, may obtain a financial interest or benefit from an activity, or have an interest in any contract, subcontract or agreement with respect thereto, or the proceeds thereunder, either for themselves or those with whom they have family or business ties, during their tenure or for one year thereafter. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 21 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 20 V.LOAN TERMS AND CLOSING PROCEDURES Loan Terms Permanent loans that are not grants shall be due and payable in no more than fifty-five (55) years subject to the terms of the applicable Loan Agreement and recorded Affordability Restrictions. If a developer requests a shorter term loan, the City would be willing to negotiate. However, except for certain HOME funded projects, the Affordability Restrictions shall remain in effect for at least 55 years. Purchase Option At the end of the permanent loan term, the City may have the option to take title to the property in accordance with the terms of an option agreement if the owner of the property decides to sell Interest Rates for Loans The interest rate shall be set at either: (1)The rate established by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation for the average conventional commitment of a fixed rate, thirty-year (30) mortgage, and shall be compounded annually; or (2)When necessary to secure investor equity, interest rates of affordable housing projects that include tax credits or conventional lenders, at 3% simple interest; or (3)When the City loan is in a subordinate position to a first trust deed capital advance/loan made under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Section 202 or Section 811 Programs, the interest rate shall not exceed the highest permissible rate on the applicable HUD Section 202 or Section 811 Program mortgages, under authority of Chapter 24 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Subpart 885.410(g); or (4)When required to meet federal subsidy layering guidelines, at the Applicable Federal Rate (that rate established by the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to Section 1274(d)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code). Loan Payments Payments on permanent loans shall be made as follows: (1)Payments of principal and interest shall be made annually to the City in an amount equal to 50% of project Residual Receipts, if any. Payments shall be applied first to accrued interest, and then to principal. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 22 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 21 (2)The Borrower may elect to prepay the loan prior to the end of the term. However, the Regulatory Agreement or recorded Affordability Covenants shall remain in full force and effect for its term regardless of any prepayment. (3)If the Borrower violates the terms of the Regulatory Agreement or recorded Affordability Covenants such that the City declares the loan in default, the entire amount of unpaid principal plus accrued interest at the rate established at the time of closing shall be due based on the terms of the agreement. (4)Unless paid in full earlier, the remaining principal balance of the loan and accrued interest shall be due and payable at the end of the term of the Promissory Note. W here necessary to meet requirements of third party investors and with approval of the Housing Division Manager, the City may allow the remaining principal and accrued but unpaid interest to be payable only to the extent that the fair market value of the Project exceeds the principal balance of the existing indebtedness secured by the property. Security The loan shall be secured as follows: (1)The loan shall be secured by a Deed of Trust and Promissory Note which may be subordinated to Deeds of Trust securing other Federal, State, City loans, or loans from conventional financing institutions used in conjunction with the loan on the same property. The City must approve all requests for subordination. (2)The loan shall be further secured by a Regulatory Agr eement or recorded Affordability Covenants to assure that Program funds are used to provide long-term affordable rental housing opportunities for low-, very low-, and extremely low-income households, as applicable. The Borrower and the City shall execute the Regulatory Agreement or recorded Affordability Covenants regulating project rents, tenant selection procedures, use of project income, management and maintenance, transfer of property, and permitted forms of ownership and use. The Regulatory Agreement or recorded Affordability Covenants shall be recorded with the Deed of Trust. Loan Closing Procedures After the developer has secured all of their remaining non-City financing (e.g. Low-Income Housing Tax Credits), the Housing Division will prepare draft loan documents following the Loan Terms above, including a draft Loan Agreement, Promissory Note, Deed of Trust (or other appropriate security as determined by the Housing Division Manager), and Regulatory Agreement or recorded Covenants, and submit them to the City Attorney’s Office for review and approval as to form. Requirements for a Regulatory Agreement or recorded Covenants may be waived in the case of a project which is funded under the HUD Section 202 or Section 811 Program. After the loan documents have been finalized, a recommendation will be made by the Housing Division to the CRHC to approve the loan documents. If recommended by the CRHC to City Council, a recommendation will then be made by the Housing Division to the City Council and/or Housing Authority for final approval of the loan documents by motion adopted by the affirmative votes of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the members. Funds may be disbursed following execution and recording of the Loan Documents by the Borrower and the City Manager, and compliance with all commitment conditions. Staff shall submit a request for release of funds Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 23 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 22 required for loan closing to the Executive Director of Finance. The Executive Director of Finance may then authorize release of loan funds into an escrow account established for the loan closing with instructions for disbursement. VI.PROJECT MONITORING AND REPORTING The Housing Division shall monitor the project during rehabilitation or construction as needed for compliance with any loan documents and applicable City, State and/or Federal regulations. The Housing Division shall request notification of the final inspection and final construction release from the primary lender, and shall review management practices and reporting procedures with the borrower and project management agent at that time for full compliance with Program requirements. A copy of the Notice of Completion for the project shall be submitted to the Housing Division at the time the Notice is recorded. Borrowers shall be required to certify annually that they have complied with affirmative marketing and tenant selection procedures, and shall submit an annual report to the Housing Division in the form specified by the Division. The Housing Division shall monitor compliance with any Regulatory Agreement or recorded Affordability Covenants, the loan documents, and applicable City, State and/or Federal regulations on an annual basis. Additional details regarding the monitoring process will be included as part of the final Loan Documents. Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity Borrower shall post notices stating that a housing project is subject to Fair Housing and Equal Employment Opportunity requirements of 24 CFR 92.350 and 351 at each project site. Establishment and Use of Reserve Funds Upon completion of project construction, the borrower will be required to capitalize a reserve fund in an amount determined by the City and make annual contributions to the fund. The reserve fund can be used for expenditures related to necessary structural and equipment replacements and improvements of a capital nature, and is not intended to be used for ordinary maintenance items. Annual Reporting by the Housing Division On a quarterly basis, the Housing Division shall prepare a report to the CRHC for its review and recommendation for City Council approval. The quarterly report shall include details on at least the following items: (1)Loan Activity; (2)Loan Portfolio Management and Monitoring; (3)Proposals that were submitted during the previous quarter under the RFP Process but were not recommended for approval by a Review Panel; (4)Affordable Housing Projects under Development; and (5)Available Funds for Affordable Housing Development Projects.

Sources are set aside for the purpose of increasing, improving and preserving the community’s supply of low and moderate income housing as stipulated by California Health and Safety Code Section 34176. (Further information on grant terms provided in Section III). This fund includes land assets owned by the Housing Authority acting as the Housing Successor Agency that must be developed for affordable housing or sold at or above fair market value to increase the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund. Eligible Borrowers/Grantees Eligible borrowers are nonprofit Housing Development Corporations (HDC ’s) duly organized to promote and undertake community development activities on a not-for-profit basis, or for-profit housing developers or development corporations, with proven capacities to develop, own, and operate affordable housing. Limited partnerships whose general partners are otherwise eligible under the above are also eligible to borrow Program funds. Eligible Projects All new construction projects shall be affordable to households whose income, as adjusted for household size, does not exceed 80% of area median income. Eligible acquisition and/or rehabilitation projects will: (1)have four or more apartments or be congregate housing or mobile home units, except where the Housing Division Manager finds that the project will provide a substantial public benefit; (2)be in need of rehabilitation as defined herein; (3)be located in the City of Santa Ana; (4)be free from significant adverse environmental conditions, except those that can be mitigated at a reasonable cost through rehabilitation; and, (5)minimize tenant displacement.

Eligible uses of deferred payment loan funds or grants include, but are not limited to, the following: Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 25 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 24 (1) acquisition and/or rehabilitation of eligible properties for rental or transitional housing; (2) acquisition and conversion of non-residential property to multifamily rental housing units; and (3) new construction of housing units for rental or transitional housing. Affordability Requirements As required by State law, all projects shall be targeted to households earning 80% or less of the area median income, based on the State of California Housing and Community Development income and rent limits. State law also requires that at least thirty percent (30%) shall be expended for rental housing affordable to and occupied by “low-income” households does not exceed thirty percent (30%) of the area median income and no more than twenty percent (20%) affordable to and occupied by households between 60% of the area median income and 80% of the area median income. Units are considered affordable when the rent, less a deduction for a utility allowance, for a “very low-income” household does not exceed thirty percent (30%) of 50% of the area median income; for a “low-income” household does not exceed thirty percent (30%) of 60% of the area median income. Very low-income households are households whose incomes do not exceed 50% of the area median income. Low-income households are households whose income does not exceed 80% of the area median income. The area median income as referenced above is the Orange County area median income figure, adjusted for household size, as published by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) from time to time. Security The loan or grant shall be secured by a Deed of Trust and Promissory Note which may be subordinated to deeds of trust securing other Federal, State, or City loans, or loans from conventional financing institutions used in conjunction with the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund loan on the same property. The City must obtain written commitments to protect the City’s investment in the event of a default. The City must approve all requests for subordination.

The Borrower and the City shall execute and record Affordability Covenants and Restrictions regulating project rents, tenant selection procedures, use of project income, management and maintenance, transfer of property, and permitted forms of ownership and use, including a prohibition on conversion of the project to condominium or stock cooperative ownership for the term of the recorded Affordability Covenants and Restrictions. The recorded Affordability Covenants and Restrictions shall provide for the longest feasible time. Notwithstanding the above, the Affordability Covenants and Restrictions would in no event, be shorter than any other term of a Regulatory Agreement or Covenant recorded concurrently with the City’s Covenants and Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 26 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 25 Restrictions. The Affordability Covenants and Restrictions shall be recorded with the Deed of Trust. In some circumstances, these Affordability Covenants and Restrictions may be subordinated by the City, pursuant to Section 33334.14 of California Health and Safety Code, to liens, encumbrances, or regulatory agreements of other federal or state agencies or lenders providing financing for the project, subject to assurances by senior lenders that the City’s lien rights will be protected.

Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 29 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 28 HOME Investment Partnerships Program Source of Funds Funding for this Program is provided through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HOME Program (including program income and residual receipts), and therefore is subject to the federal rules and regulations found in 24 CFR Part 92, as amended from time to time. Eligible Borrowers/Grantees Eligible borrowers are nonprofit Housing Development Corporations (HDC’s) duly organized to promote and undertake community development activities on a not-for-profit basis, and which have a valid 501(c)(3) or (4) designation from the IRS, or for-profit housing developers or development corporations, with proven capacities to develop, own, and operate affordable housing. Limited partnerships whose general partners are otherwise eligible under the above are also eligible to borrow Program funds. Eligible Projects Projects eligible for HOME funding shall: (1) be rental projects located in the City of Santa Ana; (2) contribute to the achievement of the City's Strategic Plan and fair housing goals; (3) involve 4 or more apartments which will be rented to eligible lower income households at rents that do not exceed rents as defined by 24 CFR 92.252, as amended from time to time. Projects serving persons with special needs, or where the City Manager finds that the project will provide a substantial public benefit, may have fewer than four units. Transitional or permanent supportive housing may be provided (but not temporary shelters). (4) have at least 20% of the HOME-assisted units rented to very low-income families (50% of median income) under the terms and conditions set forth in 24 CFR 92.252 (2)(b); (5) demonstrate financial feasibility -- including the ability to maintain rents for the subsidized units at affordable levels for the periods specified in 24 CFR 92.252; (6) be free of significant adverse environmental impacts, except those that can be mitigated through the project itself; (7) minimize tenant displacement; (8) comply with all local building and zoning codes and standards, including energy efficiency and water conservation standards, and meet housing quality standards in Section 882.109 of Title 24. Newly constructed housing must meet the current edition Model Energy Code of the Council of American Building Officials; (9) make efficient use of public funds and avoid "layering" of subsidies beyond those necessary to achieve a financially feasible project; and, (10) have at least 51% of the project space be residential, if in a mixed use project. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 30 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 29 Eligible Uses and Activities HOME funds may only be used to finance new construction or acquisition and/or rehabilitation of rental housing which is affordable to very low and low-income households as defined by 24 CFR 92.2. Fifteen percent (15%) of the annual HOME fund allocation shall be set aside for certified Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO’s). New construction costs eligible for HOME funding shall be as specified in 24 CFR Part 92, including: 1. site acquisition; 2. site preparation costs (grading, filling, etc.); 3. financing costs as described in 24 CFR 92.206; 4. architectural, engineering, and other related soft costs; 5. the cost of extending or upgrading utilities to the site to support the proposed project; 6. construction costs; 7. relocation costs; and, 8. affirmative marketing and audit costs related to HOME program requirements. Rehabilitation costs eligible for HOME funding include: 9. project acquisition with or without rehabilitation; 10. financing costs, as described in 24 CFR 92.206; 11. architectural, engineering, or other design costs; 12. utility upgrade or extension costs; 13. costs associated with demolition (where necessary) only if rehabilitation is commenced within 12 months of demolition; 14. construction costs; 15. project audit costs; and, 16. affirmative marketing costs. Ineligible Uses and Activities The following costs are not eligible for HOME funding: 1. project reserve accounts for replacement or operating reserves, and operating subsidies; 2. payment of impact fees; 3. land banking; 4. emergency repair or weatherization programs; 5. commercial properties; 6. temporary shelters; or 7. project-based rental assistance. Affordability Requirements HUD provides the following maximum HOME rent limits. The maximum HOME rents are the lesser of: 1. The fair market rent for existing housing for comparable units in the area as established by HUD; or Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 31 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 30 2. A rent that does not exceed 30 percent of the adjusted income of a family whose annual income equals 65 percent of the median income for the area, as determined by HUD, with adjustments for number of bedrooms in the unit. The HOME rent limits provided by HUD will include average occupancy per unit and adjusted income assumptions. In rental projects with five or more HOME-assisted rental units, twenty (20) percent of the HOME-assisted units must be occupied by very low-income families and meet one of following rent requirements: 1. The rent does not exceed 30 percent of the annual income of a family whose income equals 50 percent of the median income for the area, as determined by HUD, with adjustments for smaller and larger families. HUD provides the HOME rent limits which include average occupancy per unit and adjusted income assumptions. However, if the rent determined under this paragraph is higher than the applicable rent under 24 CFR 92.252(a), then the maximum rent for units under this paragraph is that calculated under 24 CFR 92.252(a). 2. The rent does not exceed 30 percent of the family's adjusted income. If the unit receives Federal or State project-based rental subsidy and the very low-income family pays as a contribution toward rent not more than 30 percent of the family's adjusted income, then the maximum rent (i.e., tenant contribution plus project-based rental subsidy) is the rent allowable under the Federal or State project-based rental subsidy program. To ensure that HOME investments yield affordable housing over the long term, HOME imposes rent and occupancy requirements over the length of an affordability period. For homebuyer and rental projects, the length of the affordability period depends on the amount of HOME assistance to the project or buyer, and the nature of the activity funded. Table 1-1: Determining the HOME Period of Affordability: HOME Assistance per Unit or Buyer Length of the Affordability Period Less than $15,000 5 years $15,000 - $40,000 10 years More than $40,000 15 years New construction of rental housing 20 years Refinancing of rental housing 15 years Throughout the affordability period, income-eligible households must occupy the HOME- assisted housing. When units become vacant during the affordability period, subsequent tenants must be income eligible and must be charged the applicable HOME rent. Other Requirements Minimum Loan: All HOME investments must total not less than $1,000 multiplied by the number of HOME-assisted units in the project. Maximum Loan: The maximum amount of subsidy per unit shall not exceed the maximum allowed by HUD under the HOME program (24 CFR 92.250), or that provided for under Section IV, Loan Terms, of these Policies and Procedures, whichever is less. The City will avoid Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 32 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 31 unnecessary layering of subsidies from different federal, state and local programs and seek to maximize the benefit to target households from the investment of HOME funds in a project. The Housing Division will use HUD’s Cost Allocation Tool to identify the maximum subsidy per unit for each project. Property Standards: Housing that is assisted with HOME funds must meet, at a minimum, the City’s Property Standards, including all applicable local, State and Federal codes and regulations. Newly constructed housing must also meet the current edition of the Model Energy Code published by the Council of American Building Officials. Substantially rehabilitated housing must meet the cost-effective energy conservation and effectiveness standards in 24 CFR 39. Labor Standards/Construction Contracts: Any contract for construction (whether it is for rehabilitation or for new construction) of affordable housing with 12 or more units assisted with HOME funds must contain a provision requiring that not less than the prevailing wages paid in the locality, as determined by the Secretary of Labor pursuant to the Davis-Bacon Act, will be paid to all laborers and mechanics employed in the development of the project. Contractors and subcontractors must comply with regulations issued under this Act and pertaining to labor standards and HUD Handbook 1344.1. These provisions apply whether HOME funds are used for construction or non-construction costs. Lead-based Paint: Housing assisted with HOME funds constitutes HUD-associated housing for the purpose of the Lead-Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Act and the Lead Safe Housing Rule, and is therefore subject to 24 CFR Part 35. Unless otherwise provided, borrowers are responsible for testing and abatement. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 33 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 32 Community Development Block Grant Program Source of Funds Funding for this program is provided through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program (including program income and residual receipts), and therefore is subject to the federal rules and regulations found in 24 CFR Part 570, as amended from time to time. Eligible Borrowers/Grantees Eligible borrowers are community-based nonprofit housing development corporations (CBDO’s) duly organized or with capacity to promote and undertake community development activities on a not-for-profit basis, with proven capacity to develop, own and operate affordable housing, within a neighborhood identified in the Community Development plan (Annual Action Plan). Such organizations are defined in CDBG regulations (24 CFR 570.204(a)(2)(c)(1)). Nonprofit Housing Development Corporations (HDC’s) and social service agencies with proven capacity to develop, own, and operate affordable housing, and limited partnerships whose general partner(s) is otherwise eligible under the above provisions, are also eligible to borrow Program funds if the nonprofit partner is the managing general partner throughout the term of the loan and will receive at least 51% of the developer fee. Nonprofit corporations must have a valid 501(c)(3) or (4) designation from the Internal Revenue Service. Eligible Projects Eligible projects will: (1) have four or more apartment units or fewer than four units in the case of congregate housing, mobile home units or where the Housing Division Manager finds that the project will provide a substantial public benefit; (2) if new construction, have 51% of the units occupied by low income tenants; (3) be free from significant adverse environmental impacts, except those that can be mitigated; and, (4) avoid permanent involuntary tenant displacement to the greatest degree feasible in order to carry out the program. Transitional or permanent supportive housing may be provided. Rents of assisted units shall be affordable to households whose incomes do not exceed 80% of the area median income. Eligible Uses and Activities Funds can be used to make loans to eligible borrowers to provide affordable housing, p rincipally for low and moderate income households, including, but not limited to: (1) acquisition and/or rehabilitation of eligible rental properties; (2) new construction of rental or limited equity cooperative housing by a CBDO is eligible, provided the construction activity is carried out as part of a neighborhood revitalization, community economic development or energy conservation project. New housing construction carried out by an eligible CBDO must be part of a larger effort to revitalize the neighborhood (i.e., a plan for the community’s revitalization efforts based on a comprehensive plan, not just for the sake of the CDBG project); Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 34 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 33 Ineligible Uses and Activities Funds may not be used for the following activities: 1. the construction of new rental housing or for any program to subsidize or assist such housing, except when carried out by a CBDO, provided the construction activity is carried out as part of a neighborhood revitalization, community economic development or energy conservation project; 2. to provide income payments for rent or utilities, except in emergency situations for a period not longer than three months; or, 3. to assist rental housing properties if less than 51% of the units will be occupied by low and moderate income households.

Unless otherwise provided, borrowers are responsible for testing and abatement. Accessibility: All projects must comply with the federal Section 504 Disabled Accessibility regulations contained in Sections 8.22 and 8.23 of Subpart C, 24 CFR Part 8. Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 35 11/4/2025 Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures Page 34 Project-Based Voucher Program Source of Funds Project-based vouchers are a component of a public housing authority’s (PHA) Housing Choice Voucher Program. Funding for project-based vouchers comes from funds already obligated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to a PHA under its Annual Contributions Contract. A PHA can attach up to 20 percent of its Annual Contributions Contract to specific housing units if the owner agrees to either rehabilitate or construct the units, or the owner agrees to set-aside a portion of the units in an existing development. The PHA can use up to 20 percent of its housing choice vouchers for project-based vouchers. Eligible Borrowers Eligible borrowers are nonprofit Housing Development Corporations (HDC’s) duly organized to promote and undertake community development activities on a not-for-profit basis, or for-profit housing developers or development corporations, with proven capacities to develop, own, and operate affordable housing. Limited partnerships whose general partners are otherwise eligible under the above are also eligible to borrow Program funds. Eligible Projects Eligible projects include acquisition, rehabilitation, or new construction of rental housing projects which: 1. The PHA may attach PBV assistance for units in existing housing or for newly constructed or rehabilitated housing developed under and in accordance with an Agreement. a. Existing housing—A housing unit is considered an existing unit for purposes of the PBV program, if at the time of notice of PHA selection the units substantially comply with HQS. i. Units for which rehabilitation or new construction began after owner's proposal submission but prior to execution of the Agreement to Enter into a Housing Assistance Payments Contract do not subsequently qualify as existing housing. ii. Units that were newly constructed or rehabilitated in violation of program requirements also do not qualify as existing housing. Eligible Uses and Activities Program funds can be used to enter into an Agreement with eligible borrowers who will provide affordable housing, principally for low and moderate income households. Eligible uses of Project-Based Voucher funds include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) acquisition and/or rehabilitation of eligible rental properties; (2) acquisition and conversion of nonresidential property to multifamily rental housing units; and (3) new construction of rental housing units.

Exhibit 1 City Council 21 – 37 11/4/2025 Community Development Agency www.santa-ana.org/cd Item # 22 City of Santa Ana 20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701 Staff Report November 4, 2025 TOPIC: Resolution Approving the Issuance of Taxable Bonds by California Enterprise Development Authority (CEDA) AGENDA TITLE Resolution Approving the Issuance of Taxable Bonds by California Enterprise Development Authority (CEDA) for the Purpose of Financing, Refinancing, and/or Reimbursing the Cost of Manufacturing Facilities for the Benefit of Robinson Pharma, Inc. RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt a Resolution approving issuance of California Enterprise Development Authority (CEDA) Bonds for the purpose of financing, refinancing, and/or reimbursing the cost of manufacturing facilities for the benefit of Robinson Pharma, Inc. located at 3130 South Fairview Street. RESOLUTION NO. 2025-XXX entitled A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA, APPROVING THE ISSUANCE OF NOT TO EXCEED $40,000,000 TAXABLE REVENUE BONDS BY THE CALIFORNIA ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY FOR 3130 SOUTH FAIRVIEW STREET GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION State laws provide the ability for cities and counties to join together under cooperative agreements to form joint powers authorities (JPA) to issue tax-exempt and taxable bonds to fund projects that provide a public benefit and serve the needs of residents within the jurisdictions of the participating members. While individual cities and counties in California may issue conduit revenue bonds directly, many choose to utilize JPAs to achieve economies of scale, access specialized expertise and resources, and minimize the use of local staff time on such transactions. The California Enterprise Development Authority (CEDA) is a joint powers authority established in 2006 to address gaps in economic development financing by issuing tax- exempt and taxable conduit revenue bonds for industrial, commercial, and other public- purpose projects. CEDA facilitates private activity bond issuance to support economic and community development within its member jurisdictions. The City of Santa Ana is an associate member of CEDA, which currently includes 285-member communities statewide. City Council 22 – 1 11/4/2025 Issuance of taxable bonds by CEDA for Robinson Pharma November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 1 5 The City of Santa Ana became a member of CEDA in 2015 by adopting City Council Resolution No. 2015-002, authorizing the City to enter into the Joint Powers Agreement that formed CEDA. Through this membership: The City is represented as one of CEDA’s member jurisdictions. The City may request that CEDA issue bonds for qualifying projects located within Santa Ana. The City retains local control over whether to approve each financing that takes place within its boundaries. Membership does not create any financial or legal obligation for the City. CEDA’s bond issuances are conduit financings, meaning the repayment responsibility lies solely with the private borrower benefiting from the funds, not the City or CEDA’s members. Project Description 3130 South Fairview LLC, a California limited liability company, and Robinson Pharma, Inc., a California corporation, are requesting CEDA’s assistance in issuing taxable bonds in an amount not to exceed $40,000,000 to finance, refinance, and/or reimburse the costs associated with the manufacturing facilities located at 3130 South Fairview Street, Santa Ana, California 92704 (the “Property”). Headquartered in Santa Ana for more than 37 years, Robinson Pharma, Inc. is a leading dietary supplement manufacturer with multiple state-of-the-art production and warehouse facilities totaling over one million square feet. Employing more than 870 individuals locally, Robinson Pharma plays a key role in strengthening Santa Ana’s manufacturing sector and enhancing the City’s reputation as a center for advanced manufacturing and innovation. Economically, Robinson Pharma contributes to Santa Ana through significant job creation, capital investment, and ongoing tax revenue. The company’s continued expansion has generated employment opportunities across production, logistics, and administrative fields while supporting local contractors and suppliers. Overall, Robinson Pharma serves as a key anchor business within Santa Ana’s industrial base, enhancing economic stability and growth for the community. The acquisition of the Property will enable Robinson Pharma, Inc. to expand its manufacturing operations within the City of Santa Ana. Following its completion in June 2024 as a speculative construction “spec” development, the building at 3130 South Fairview Street remained vacant until Robinson Pharma expressed interest in expanding its local operations by occupying the subject structure. If its occupancy is ultimately approved, Robinson Pharma would become the new building’s first tenant, ending its 16-month vacancy. Pursuant to Section 91530(f) of the California Industrial Development Financing Act (Title 10 of the California Government Code) and the Joint Exercise of Powers Act City Council 22 – 2 11/4/2025 Issuance of taxable bonds by CEDA for Robinson Pharma November 4, 2025 Page 3 5 4 1 5 (Chapter 5 of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code, commencing with Section 6500), City Council approval is required for the issuance of the bonds. Conduit revenue bonds are a specialized form of financing in which the borrower, rather than the issuing agency such as CEDA, is solely responsible for repaying the debt. The City has no financial obligation for the repayment of these bonds. In this case, the bonds will be repaid entirely through payments made by the borrower under a loan or financing agreement. The bonds will be purchased and held by a qualified institutional buyer. It is important to note that the bonds do not represent a debt or financial obligation of the Authority, the City of Santa Ana, or any other member agency. Neither the City’s credit, taxing power, nor any public funds are pledged toward repayment of the bonds. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines provides that CEQA only applies to projects, which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The activity at issue is the adoption of a resolution approving the issuance of taxable revenue bonds by CEDA to finance, refinance and/or reimburse the cost of manufacturing facilities for the benefit of Robinson Pharma, Inc. The manufacturing facilities consist of recently constructed 82,000 square foot industrial building, that includes 10,000 square-feet of office space. The adoption of the resolution is solely for the purpose of satisfying the requirements of CEDA to issue $40,000,000 in taxable revenue bonds for 3130 South Fairview Street. The City Council’s action does not involve the approval of any physical development or activity that would have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, the proposed action does not constitute approval of a project under CEQA and is not subject to CEQA. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. EXHIBIT(S) 1.

RECOMMENDED ACTION Approve the City of Santa Ana 2025 Public Health Goals Report for Public Distribution. GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No DISCUSSION The Public Works Agency Water Resources Division (PWA) operates and maintains the City’s water and sanitary sewer systems. The water system is comprised of approximately 480 miles of water main, 21 groundwater wells, seven pump stations, 10 reservoirs with a storage capacity of 49 million gallons, four pressure regulating stations, and seven connection points to Metropolitan Water District. The system has an average daily demand of 30 million gallons from its roughly 45,500 metered service connections. Background Public water systems are highly regulated to ensure the safety and reliability of drinking water. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) establishes Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) for various substances to protect public health. All public water systems, including the City of Santa Ana’s, must comply with these stringent federal standards. In addition, the California Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) establishes Public Health Goals (PHGs) for contaminants in drinking water. PHGs represent aspirational targets, set at concentrations far lower than MCLs, that public water systems are encouraged, but not required, to meet. Achieving PHGs may be technically feasible; however, doing so is often impractical due to the high cost and limited public health benefits relative to existing standards. City Council 23 – 1 11/4/2025 Report on Water Quality Relative to the Public Health Goals November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 0 9 Public Health Goal Report Pursuant to the California Health and Safety Code Section 116470, the City must prepare a report every three years identifying instances where detected contaminants in drinking water exceed PHGs (Exhibit 1). The report is then forwarded to the State Water Resources Control Board, Division of Water (DDW) for use in revising or developing an MCL in drinking water. For calendar years 2022 through 2024, the City’s drinking water exceeded PHGs for naturally occurring elements, such as arsenic, radium, uranium, hexavalent chromium, gross alpha particle activity, and gross beta particle activity, as well as for bromate, perchlorate, perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). Importantly, the City’s drinking water continues to meet or exceed all federal and state drinking water standards established by the USEPA, DDW. These standards are designed to ensure water safety and protect public health. The report also provides cost estimates for implementing the best available treatment technologies to reduce these contaminants further, such as ion exchange and reverse osmosis. The estimated annual cost to achieve PHG levels ranges from $14.1 million to $99.5 million, which would impose an extraordinary financial burden on the community. Given the substantial costs and the fact that the City’s water meets all mandatory health and safety standards, no additional treatment programs are proposed at this time. In accordance with state law, the City is required to hold a public hearing to receive and respond to comments on the PHG report prior to making available for public distribution. This hearing fulfills that statutory requirement. Once approved, Staff will submit a copy to DDW and publish the report on the City’s website. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with the action. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with the action. EXHIBIT(S) 1. City of Santa Ana Report on Water Quality Relative to Public Health Goals Submitted By: Rodolfo Rosas, P.E., Acting Executive Director – Public Works Agency Approved By: Alvaro Nuñez, City Manager City Council 23 – 2 11/4/2025 CITY OF SANTA ANA 2025 PUBLIC HEALTH GOALS REPORT JUNE 2025 City Council 23 – 3 11/4/2025 City of Santa Ana 1 2025 PHGs Report 2025 Public Health Goals (PHGs) Report City of Santa Ana 1.0 Introduction Under the Calderon-Sher Safe Drinking Water Act of 1996 public water systems in California serving greater than 10,000 service connections must prepare a report containing information on 1) detection of any contaminant in drinking water at a level exceeding a Public Health Goal (PHG), 2) estimate of costs to remove detected contaminants to below the PHG using Best Available Technology (BAT), and 3) health risks for each contaminant exceeding a PHG. This report must be made available to the public every three years. The initial PHGs Report was due on July 1, 1998, and subsequent reports are due every three years thereafter. The 2025 PHGs Report has been prepared to address the requirements set forth in Section 116470 of the California Health and Safety Code. It is based on water quality analyses during calendar years 2022, 2023, and 2024 or, if certain analyses were not performed during those years, the most recent data is used. The 2025 PHGs Report has been designed to be as informative as possible, without unnecessary duplication of information contained in the Consumer Confidence Report (also known as Water Quality Report), which is provided to customers by July 1 of each year. There are no regulations explaining requirements for the preparation of PHGs reports. A workgroup of the Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA) Water Quality Committee has prepared suggested guidelines for water utilities to use in preparing PHGs reports. The ACWA guidelines were used in the preparation of this 2025 PHGs Report. These guidelines include tables of cost estimates for BAT. The State of California (State) provides ACWA with numerical health risks and category of health risk information for contaminants with PHGs. This health risk information is appended to the ACWA guidelines. 2.0 California Drinking Water Regulatory Process California Health and Safety Code Section 116365 requires the State to develop a PHG for every contaminant with a primary drinking water standard or for any contaminant the State is City Council 23 – 4 11/4/2025 City of Santa Ana 2 2025 PHGs Report proposing to regulate with a primary drinking water standard. A PHG is the level of a contaminant in drinking water that poses no significant health risk if consumed for a lifetime. The process of establishing a PHG is a risk assessment based strictly on human health considerations. PHGs are recommended targets and are not required to be met by any public water system. The State office designated to develop PHGs is the California Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA). The PHG is then forwarded to the State Water Resources Control Board, Division of Drinking Water (DDW) for use in revising or developing a Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) in drinking water. The MCL is the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. State MCLs cannot be less stringent than federal MCLs and must be as close as is technically and economically feasible to the PHGs. DDW is required to take treatment technologies and cost of compliance into account when setting an MCL. Each MCL is reviewed at least once every five years. Two radiological contaminants (gross alpha particle activity and gross beta particle activity) have MCLs but do not yet have designated PHGs. For these contaminants, the Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG), the federal U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) equivalent of PHGs, is used in the 2025 PHGs Report. 3.0 Identification of Contaminants Section 116470(b)(1) of the Health and Safety Code requires public water systems serving more than 10,000 service connections to identify each contaminant detected in drinking water that exceeded the applicable PHG. Section 116470(f) requires the MCLG to be used for comparison if there is no applicable PHG. The City of Santa Ana (City) water system has approximately 45,652 service connections. The following constituents were detected at one or more locations within the drinking water system at levels that exceeded the applicable PHGs or MCLGs: Arsenic – naturally-occurring in local groundwater. City Council 23 – 5 11/4/2025 City of Santa Ana 3 2025 PHGs Report Bromate – formed when naturally-occurring bromide reacts with ozone during the disinfection process in treated surface water purchased from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWDSC). Gross alpha particle activity (gross alpha) – naturally-occurring in local groundwater and in treated surface water purchased from MWDSC. Gross beta particle activity (gross beta) – naturally-occurring in treated surface water purchased from MWDSC; not required to be tested in local groundwater. Hexavalent Chromium – naturally-occurring in local groundwater. Perchlorate – industrial contamination in local groundwater. Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) – industrial contamination in local groundwater. Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) – industrial contamination in local groundwater. Radium, Combined, is the sum of Radium-226 and Radium-228 – naturally-occurring in treated surface water purchased from MWDSC. Uranium – naturally-occurring in local groundwater and in treated surface water purchased from MWDSC. The accompanying table shows the applicable PHG or MCLG and MCL for each contaminant identified above. The table includes the maximum, minimum, and average concentrations of each contaminant in drinking water supplied by the City in calendar years 2022 through 2024. 4.0 Numerical Public Health Risks Section 116470(b)(2) of the Health and Safety Code requires disclosure of the numerical public health risk, determined by OEHHA, associated with the MCLs, PHGs and MCLGs. Available numerical health risks developed by OEHHA for the contaminants identified above are shown on the accompany table. Only numerical risks associated with cancer-causing chemicals have been quantified by OEHHA. Arsenic – OEHHA has determined the health risk associated with the PHG is 1 excess case of cancer in a million people and the risk associated with the MCL is 2.5 excess cases of cancer in 1,000 people exposed over a 70-year lifetime. City Council 23 – 6 11/4/2025 City of Santa Ana 4 2025 PHGs Report Bromate – OEHHA has determined the health risk associated with the PHG is 1 excess case of cancer in a million people and the risk associated with the MCL is 1 excess case of cancer in 10,000 people exposed over a 70-year lifetime. Gross Alpha – OEHHA has not established a PHG. USEPA has established an MCLG of 0. USEPA has determined the risk associated with the MCL is 1 excess case of cancer in 1,000 people exposed over a 70-year lifetime for the most potent alpha emitter. Gross Beta – OEHHA has not established a PHG. USEPA has established an MCLG of 0. USEPA has determined the risk associated with the MCL is 2 excess cases of cancer in 1,000 people exposed over a 70-year lifetime for the most potent beta emitter. Hexavalent Chromium – OEHHA has determined the health risk associated with the PHG is 1 excess case of cancer in a million people and the risk associated with the MCL is 5 excess cases of cancer in 10,000 people exposed over a 70-year lifetime. Perchlorate – OEHHA has not established a numerical health risk for perchlorate because PHGs for non-carcinogenic chemicals in drinking water are set at a concentration at which no known or anticipated adverse health risks will occur, with an adequate margin of safety. PFOS – OEHHA has determined the health risk associated with the PHG is 1 excess case of cancer in a million people. There is no California MCL for PFOS; therefore, the risk information associated with the MCL is not available/applicable. PFOA – OEHHA has determined the health risk associated with the PHG is 1 excess case of cancer in a million people. There is no California MCL for PFOA; therefore, the risk information associated with the MCL is not available/applicable. Radium, Combined – OEHHA has determined that the health risk associated with the PHG is 1 excess case of cancer in one million people over a 70-year lifetime exposure; and the risk associated with the MCL is 1 excess case of cancer in 10,000 people for radium-226 and 3 excess cases of cancer in 10,000 people for radium-228 over a 70-year lifetime exposure. City Council 23 – 7 11/4/2025 City of Santa Ana 5 2025 PHGs Report Uranium – OEHHA has determined the health risk associated with the PHG is 1 excess case of cancer in a million people and the risk associated with the MCL is 5 excess cases of cancer in 100,000 people exposed over a 70-year lifetime. 5.0 Identification of Risk Categories Section 116470(b)(3) of the Health and Safety Code requires identification of the category of risk to public health associated with exposure to the contaminant in drinking water, including a brief, plainly worded description of those terms. The risk categories and definitions for the contaminants identified above are shown on the accompanying table. 6.0 Description of Best Available Technology Section 116470(b)(4) of the Health and Safety Code requires a description of the BAT, if any is available on a commercial basis, to remove or reduce the concentrations of the contaminants identified above. The BATs are shown on the accompanying table. 7.0 Costs of Using Best Available Technologies and Intended Actions Section 116470(b)(5) of the Health and Safety Code requires an estimate of the aggregate cost and cost per customer of utilizing the BATs identified to reduce the concentration of a contaminant to a level at or below the PHG or MCLG. In addition, Section 116470(b)(6) requires a brief description of any actions the water purveyor intends to take to reduce the concentration of the contaminant and the basis for that decision. Arsenic – The BATs for removal of arsenic in water for large water systems are: activated alumina, coagulation/filtration, electrodialysis, ion exchange, lime softening, oxidation/filtration, and reverse osmosis. Arsenic was detected above the PHG in the local groundwater (Well 37). The City is in compliance with the MCL for arsenic. The estimated cost to reduce arsenic levels in the groundwater to below the PHG of 0.004 microgram per liter (µg/l) using ion exchange was calculated. Because the DDW detection limit for purposes of reporting (DLR) for arsenic is 2 µg/l, treating arsenic to below the PHG level means treating arsenic to below the DLR of 2 µg/l. There are numerous factors that may influence the actual cost of reducing arsenic levels to the City Council 23 – 8 11/4/2025 City of Santa Ana 6 2025 PHGs Report PHG. Achieving the water quality goal for arsenic could be approximately $2,610,000 per year, or $57 per service connection per year. Bromate – The BATs for removal of bromate in water for large water systems are: coagulation/filtration optimization, granular activated carbon, and reverse osmosis. Bromate was detected above the PHG in the treated surface water purchased from MWDSC. The City is in compliance with the MCL for bromate. The estimated cost to reduce bromate levels in MWDSC water to below the PHG of 0.1 µg/l using reverse osmosis was calculated. Because the DLR for bromate is 1 µg/l, treating bromate to below the PHG level means treating bromate to below the DLR of 1 µg/l. There are numerous factors that may influence the actual cost of reducing bromate levels to the PHG. Achieving the water quality goal for bromate could range from approximately $2,020,000 to $17,300,000 per year, or between $44 and $379 per service connection per year. Gross Alpha, Gross Beta, Combined Radium, and Uranium – The only BAT for the removal of gross alpha in water for large water systems is reverse osmosis, which can also remove gross beta, combined radium, and uranium, if detected. Gross alpha was detected above the MCLG in the local groundwater (Wells 18, 20, 21, 24, 26, 29, 30, 35, 36, 37, 39, 40, and 41) and treated surface water purchased from MWDSC. Gross beta was detected above the MCLG in the treated surface water purchased from MWDSC. Combined radium was detected above the MCLG in the treated surface water purchased from MWDSC. Uranium was detected above the PHG in the local groundwater (Wells 18, 20, 21, 24, 30, 33, 35, 36, 37, 39, 40, and 41) and treated surface water purchased from MWDSC. The cost of providing treatment using reverse osmosis to reduce gross alpha levels to the MCLG of 0 picoCurie per liter (pCi/l) (and consequently gross beta to below the MCLG of 0 pCi/l, combined radium to below the MCLG of 0 pCi/l, and uranium in to below the PHG of 0.43 pCi/l) was calculated. Because the DLR for gross alpha is 3 pCi/l, treating gross alpha to 0 pCi/l means treating it to below the DLR of 3 pCi/l (and treating gross beta, radium-226, radium-228, and uranium to below their respective DLRs of 4 pCi/l, 1 pCi/l, 1 pCi/l, and 1 pCi/l). Achieving the water quality goal for gross alpha could range from $10,500,000 to $89,800,000 per year, or between $230 and $1,970 per service connection per year. Hexavalent Chromium – The BATs for removal of hexavalent chromium in water for large water systems are: ion exchange, reduction/coagulation/filtration, and reverse osmosis. City Council 23 – 9 11/4/2025 City of Santa Ana 7 2025 PHGs Report Hexavalent chromium was detected above the PHG in the local groundwater (Wells 18, 20, 21, 24, 26, 29, 30, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 39, 40, and 41). The City is in compliance with the MCL for hexavalent chromium. The estimated cost to reduce hexavalent chromium levels in the groundwater to below the PHG of 0.02 µg/l using reduction/coagulation/filtration was calculated. Because the DLR for hexavalent chromium is 0.1 µg/l, treating hexavalent chromium to below the PHG level means treating hexavalent chromium to below the DLR of 0.1 µg/l. There are numerous factors that may influence the actual cost of reducing hexavalent chromium levels to the PHG. Achieving the water quality goal for hexavalent chromium could be approximately $17,800,000 to $111,000,000 per year, or between $390 and $2,440 per service connection per year. Perchlorate – The BATs for removal of perchlorate in water for large water systems are ion exchange and biological fluidized bed reactor. Perchlorate was detected above the PHG in the local groundwater (Wells 18, 20, 21, 24, 26, 30, 35, 36, and 39). The City is in compliance with the MCL for perchlorate. The estimated cost to reduce perchlorate levels in the groundwater to below the PHG of 1 µg/l using ion exchange was calculated. Because the DLR for perchlorate is 1 µg/l, treating perchlorate to below the PHG level means treating perchlorate to below the DLR of 1 µg/l. There are numerous factors that may influence the actual cost of reducing perchlorate levels to the PHG. Achieving the water quality goal for perchlorate could be approximately $3,370,000 to $7,400,000 per year, or between $74 and $162 per service connection per year. PFOS and PFOA – The BATs for removal of PFOS and PFOA in water for large water systems are: granular activated carbon, ion exchange, and reverse osmosis. PFOS and PFOA were detected above their respective PHGs in the local groundwater (Wells 18, 24, 26, 29, 33, 36, 39, 40, and 41). The City is in compliance with the State requirements for PFOS and PFOA. The estimated cost to reduce PFOS and PFOA levels in the groundwater to below their respective PHGs of 1 nanogram per liter (ng/l) and 0.007 ng/l using ion exchange was calculated. Because the DDW Consumer Confidence Report Detection Level (CCRDL) for PFOS and PFOA is 4 ng/l, treating PFOS and PFOA to below their respective PHG levels means treating PFOS and PFOA to below the CCRDL of 4 ng/l. There are numerous factors that may influence the actual cost of reducing PFOS and PFOA levels to their respective PHGs. Achieving the water quality goal for PFOS and PFOA could be approximately $4,450,000 to $60,800,000 per year, or between $97 and $1,330 per service connection per year. City Council 23 – 10 11/4/2025 City of Santa Ana 8 2025 PHGs Report All Contaminants – In addition, a cost estimate to treat all water produced by the City using ion exchange and reverse osmosis to remove all the contaminants detected above the PHGs or MCLGs was calculated. All the contaminants listed in the accompanying table may be removed to non-detectable levels by ion exchange and reverse osmosis. As shown on the accompanying table, achieving the water quality goals for all contaminants using ion exchange and reverse osmosis could range from $14,100,000 to $99,500,000 per year, or between $309 and $2,180 per service connection per year.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION On December 5, 2023, City Council authorized the City Manager and the Executive Director of the Santa Ana Housing Authority (“Housing Authority”) to execute an agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC (“Iron Mountain”) to provide offsite document storage of City of Santa Ana (“City”) and Housing Authority records in an amount not to exceed $142,700, for a three-year term beginning January 1, 2024 and expiring December 31, 2026 with an option of two one-year extensions (Exhibit 1). The purpose of this agreement is to ensure secure and compliant storage of records in accordance with the City’s Records Retention Schedule and applicable federal and state requirements. Specifically, Iron Mountain stores participant and applicant files for the Housing Authority, as well as other records and documents stored by the Finance and Management Services Agency (“FMSA”) and Community Development Agency (“CDA”). For the Housing Authority, Iron Mountain stores current and past applicant and participant records for a period of three years from the date of termination or denial of assistance. For FMSA and CDA, Iron Mountain stores various financial records and grant documents in accordance with the City’s Records Retention Schedule. City Council 3 – 1 11/4/2025 First Amendment to Agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC November 4, 2025 Page 2 5 4 0 1 The Housing Authority now seeks approval for a First Amendment to this Agreement to include the digital conversion of existing paper records currently stored on-site in the Housing Authority’s offices (Exhibit 2). The cost of this additional service is $113,180, but staff is requesting to increase the annual amount of the Agreement by $150,000 in case there are unanticipated cost increases during the project. Converting approximately 1,650 physical files (representing about 732,600 pages) into searchable digital images will streamline records management and enhance the efficiency of the Housing Authority’s operations. The original Request for Proposals (RFP) for this Agreement issued on July 19, 2023, included the digital conversion of existing paper records under Page 19 of the RFP. Iron Mountain was awarded its Agreement with the City and Housing Authority due to its proposal to RFP #23-109A, in which Iron Mountain was selected due to its resources and expertise in digital conversion and document imaging services. Said services were part of Exhibit A to the Agreement and were included within the original scope of services. Currently, physical files and records are stored and accessed manually, which can cause delays and inefficiencies. Digitization will enable authorized staff to securely access files electronically, reducing delays associated with manual retrieval and improving customer service delivery for program participants and applicants. The additional $150,000 will be funded through Housing Authority funds. However, the City is also a signatory to the Agreement that includes both the City and Housing Authority. Therefore, the City Manager is required to execute the First Amendment together with the Executive Director of the Housing Authority. Under the proposed First Amendment, Iron Mountain will provide comprehensive digital conversion services including document preparation, scanning, quality assurance, indexing, and secure electronic delivery in accordance with the statement of work attached to the First Amendment as Exhibit A-1. Upon completion, the digitized records will be transferred to an encrypted storage device, and the original hard copy records will be stored at Iron Mountain’s secured facility pending authorization for destruction in compliance with the City’s retention policies. The reason for staff to recommend this First Amendment is because the Housing Authority does not have the administrative capacity to manually scan and digitize approximately 1,650 paper files. This task requires larger equipment and specialization. This project also supports the City’s long-term operational goals by reducing dependence on physical storage space. The repurposed file room space at the Housing Authority office on the first floor of City Hall will accommodate new staffing needs and provide capacity for a small conference area to improve collaboration and service coordination. Overall, the proposed amendment advances record accessibility, digital transformation, and operational efficiency within the Housing Authority’s administrative functions. Iron Mountain will safeguard personal client information throughout the digitization process. Iron Mountain adheres to stringent security protocols that comply with industry standards such as HIPAA and SOC 2. These protocols include secure access controls, City Council 3 – 2 11/4/2025 First Amendment to Agreement with Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC November 4, 2025 Page 3 5 4 0 1 date encryption, continuous system monitoring, and rigorous physical security at digitizing facilities. All personnel undergo background checks and receive ongoing training on privacy and data security. Documents are securely tracked during intake, processing, and return. These measures ensure that client information is protected from unauthorized access while enabling improved record accessibility through secure digital solutions. Iron Mountain was founded in 1951 and provides services to more than 225,000 customers around the world and hundreds of public sector agencies across the United States. Iron Mountain stores and protects billions of information assets, including business documents. Using modern technology and various checkpoint systems, Iron Mountain provides efficient and effective services to their customers. FISCAL IMPACT Funds are budgeted and available in the following account for Fiscal Year 2025-26. The amount reflected below includes the current contract balance of $52,993 plus the additional request of $150,000. It is anticipated that the majority of the $150,000 will be spent during Fiscal Year 2025-26. Any remaining balance of the contract will be budgeted as needed in future fiscal years.

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION The Housing Authority of the City of Santa Ana (Housing Authority) is required to preserve Housing Choice Voucher Program applicant and participant records for a period of three years from the date of termination or denial of assistance. To comply with this requirement, the Housing Authority currently used Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC to store and archive files. The Housing Authority is unable to store the records in City Hall because of the volume of records, the lack of storage space, and the infrastructure required to store hundreds of confidential files. SAHA also does not have the administrative capacity to efficiently manage and maintain the records compared to an outside storage facility that will more efficiently manage the records. As required by the City of Santa Ana Records Retention Schedule, the Finance and Management Services Agency (FMSA) is also required to retain various records and documents for the periods stated within the policy. FMSA is unable to store the numerous records and documents at City Hall due to the lack of sufficient storage space and administrative capacity. Therefore, In order to comply with this requirement, FMSA utilizes an offsite storage facility that has the storage capacity, expertise, and resources to store, archive, retrieve, and destroy such records and documents. Exhibit 1 City Council 3 – 4 11/4/2025 Agreement with Iron Mountain, LLC December 5, 2023 Page 2 3 8 4 5 In addition, the Community Development Agency (CDA) is in need of a new offsite storage facility to store documents related to the former Redevelopment Agency, Enterprise and Empowerment Zone, Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, and other miscellaneous documents. To meet the offsite document storage needs for the Housing Authority, FMSA, and CDA, on July 19, 2023, staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP # 23-109A) for document storage and imaging services (Exhibit 1) for the Housing Authority, CDA, and FMSA. Responses to the RFP were accepted until August 10, 2023. The City received bids from Corodata and Iron Mountain Information Management, LLC Iron Mountain). The bids were reviewed by three staff from the Housing Authority and one staff from CDA. The review panel reviewed the two bids and Iron Mountain was selected based upon several factors including innovative technology for requesting files and shredding files and their experience and background in document storage. Iron Mountain was founded in 1951 and provides services to more than 225,000 customers around the world and hundreds of public sector agencies across the United States. Iron Mountain stores and protects billions of information assets, including business documents. Using modern technology and various checkpoint systems, Iron Mountain provides efficient and effective services to their customers. The three-year term of the agreement would begin on January 1, 2024 (Exhibit 2). FISCAL IMPACT Funds will be budgeted in the following fiscal years as follows, subject to change. The remaining balance will be budgeted from non-Housing Authority funds.

Project Scope and Workflow Collection, transport, transmittal preparation, and receipt of an estimated 370 cartons (444 cubic feet) of Customer records located at 20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana CA 92701. Iron Mountain will pack an estimated 2000 files in an estimated 370 storage cartons. Cartons will be transferred to an Iron Mountain facility in the Los Angeles market. This service will require 2 dedicated transportation trips. Once arrived at Iron Mountain, the 370 cartons will be barcoded, Inbounded, transmittal prepped, then retrieved and transported to the Cerritos CA Imaging facility. The pricing for imaging of the documents is not included in this SOW. Upon receipt of signed Statement of Work, Iron Mountain will contact Customer to schedule execution of the workflow described herein. Unless otherwise stated, Iron Mountain will follow standard operating procedures for all standard workflows including, but not limited to, transportation, inbound/outbound processing, inventory staging, and archival destruction. All work associated with this SOW will take place during standard Iron Mountain operating hours, 8AM – 5PM Monday through Friday (local time – excluding Iron Mountain holidays), unless otherwise specified and mutually agreed upon. These services will be executed in a mutually agreed upon service window based on the availability of Iron Mountain project teams while accommodating any service restrictions noted by Customer. Upon arrival at the Customer’s location, Iron Mountain will provide identification and ask for the designated Manager on Duty (MOD) or other specified Customer contact. The Customer will be required to escort Iron Mountain to the location of the records requiring service. In the event the location is not ready for service, an additional, billable service visit may be required. The Iron Mountain project team will pack the records into standard Iron Mountain RFID ready storage cartons. If a Customer chooses to use non-RFID ready cartons, separately purchased Iron Mountain RFID labels will be applied to the face of each storage carton to ensure proper disposition and chain of custody. Customer expects the following fields to be captured, if applicable: Major Description / Minor Description / Date Range / Alpha Range / Destruction Date During the pickup process, the Iron Mountain courier will confirm receipt of each carton by scanning the barcode label associated to each carton. Cartons will be staged for transport and, prior to departure, the Iron Mountain courier will require the Customer MOD or designated Customer contact to confirm the carton quantity and provide signature to release the inventory. Upon arrival at the Iron Mountain record center, each carton will be processed following the established, Iron Mountain, standard operating procedure for receipt and entry. In the event that a carton arrives without RFID labels, a RFID label will be affixed, by Iron Mountain, at the customer’s billable rate. Upon inbound completion, each carton will be placed into archival inventory through the putaway process.
