Municipal Code Section 8.05.110.E
Criteria for Alterations of Class 1 Historic Resources
Criterion 1: That the proposed alteration does not significantly impact or materially impair the character-defining
features of the historic resource as listed in the resolution for historic designation, or, where a character-defining
feature may be impacted, the proposed alteration minimizes that impact as much as possible;
Criterion 2: That the proposed alteration will assist in restoring the historic resource to its original appearance where
applicable, or will substantially aid its preservation or enhancement as a historic resource;
Criterion 3: That any additions to the historic resource are consistent with the massing, proportions, materials, and
finishes of the existing historic resource, and: (i) can be distinguished from the existing historic resource as may be
appropriate; or (ii) are indistinguishable from the historic resource as may be appropriate, and where such alterations
are clearly documented in the City’s archival file for the historic resource as being non-original to the historic
resource;
Criterion 4: That, in cases where Federal funds are to be utilized in financing the proposed alterations, the
alterations are consistent with the Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, as put forth by the U.S.
Secretary of the Interior.
Conclusion
The primary façade of the resource is not impacted with irreversible changes and
alterations to the façade are harmonious with the historic resource and reduced to
the minimal extent required. The exterior concrete façade will be cleaned, restored
and maintained. All necessary criteria for a Certificate of Appropriateness have
been met with the revised design.
Recommendation
Staff recommends the HSPB approve the Certificate of Appropriateness to
repurpose the existing building into a single-family home and repair and maintain
the exterior of the existing structure as proposed with conditions.
