CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT DATE: April 19, 2017 CONSENT AGENDA SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF MILLS ACT HISTORIC PROPERTY PRESERVATION AGREEMENT FOR CLASS 1 HISTORIC CONTRIBUTING STRUCTURE LOCATED AT 1809 SANDCLIFF ROAD, A CLASS 1 HISTORIC DISTRICT (HSPB 93/HD 5). FROM: David H. Ready, City Manager BY: Planning Services SUMMARY This action would engage the City of Palm Springs into a standard Mills Act Agreement with James D Benko and Paul Van Kampen, and the Sandcliff Homeowners Association. The intent of this contract is to require maintenance and preservation of this Class 1 historic site in exchange for possible property tax relief as determined by Riverside County. (APN 510-040-003) RECOMMENDATION: 1. Approve a Mills Act Historic Property Agreement between the City of Palm Springs, James D Benko and Paul Van Kampen and Sandcliff Homeowners Association, for 1809 Sandcliff Road, a Class 1 Historic Site (HSPB #93/HD- 5). 2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the Agreement. 3. Direct the City Clerk to record the Agreement. STAFF ANALYSIS: On February 03, 2016, the City Council designated Sandcliff Community a Historic District (HSPB #93/ Historic District #5). Sandcliff Garden Homes Historic District is comprised of forty residences clustered around common amenities and open space. As such, each of the forty units are deemed "contributing" and are therefore subject to Class 1 regulations and are also each qualified for application for a Mills Act Historic Property Preservation Agreement. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 50280 — 50290, upon the application ITEM NO. City Council Staff Report April 19, 2017— Page 2 Mills Act Agreement— 1809 Sandcliff Road of an owner of any qualified historic property, the legislative body of a city may contract with the owner or agent to restrict the use of the property to carry out the purposes and goals of historic preservation of the property. Such a contract is commonly referred to as a "Mills Act Agreement' and it provides for possible alternative property tax rate calculations in exchange for specific and ongoing preservation and maintenance of the property, specifically its historically significant elements and characteristics. The property at 1809 Sandcliff Road has been deemed a "contributing structure" within the Sandcliff Garden Homes Historic District. Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 8.05.125, contributing structures in a historic district are subject to Class 1 regulations and are designated Class 1 historic sites. California Governmental Code Section 50280.1 denotes that properties that are eligible for application of a Mills Act contract must be listed in a state, city, or county official register of historic sites. As such, the property at 1809 Sandcliff Road is qualified for a Mills Act Contract. At Sandcliff Garden Homes Historic District, routine maintenance and upkeep of the building exteriors and grounds is a shared responsibility of the homeowners association (HOA) and the individual unit owners. Because of this shared responsibility, the Mills Act Agreement in this particular case has been drafted with both the homeowner and the HOA as parties to the agreement. If other individual homeowners at the Sandcliff Garden Homes Historic District wish to pursue a Mills Act Agreement in the future, the same contractual arrangement would apply. FISCAL IMPACT: None There is no known fiscal impact upon the city as a result of this recom nded action. inn Fagg, AI P Marcus [Fuller—, .E., M.P.A., P.L.S.
