DATE: July 17, 2002 TO: City Council FROM: Director of Planning and Building CASE NO. HSPB-44: REQUEST TO DESIGNATE THE MILLER HOUSE LOCATED AT 2311 NORTH INDIAN CANYON DRIVE AS A CLASS 1 HISTORIC SITE. RECOMMENDATION That the Historic Site Preservation Board (HSPB) recommends designating the subject property as a Class 1 Historic Site per the facts in this report and findings in the attached resolution. The property owner is Catherine Meyler. The property owner applied for the proposed Class 1 designation. SUMMARY The Historic Site Preservation Board (HSPB) at its June 11", 2002 meeting, by a 4-0-1 vote, recommended that the City Council designate the Miller House, located at 2311 North Indian Canyon Drive, as a Class 1 Historic Site, subject to the findings outlined in the attached resolution. BACKGROUND A Class 1 Historic Site is a structure or site that qualifies for city designation. This structure or site may be qualified at the federal, state and/or county level. An archival file will be maintained. The structure or site may not be modified nor objects removed without the approval of the HSPB or City Council. Usage may be limited by the City Council to the extent that it may impair the integrity of the site. The site will be plaqued. The Historic Site Preservation Board is charged with conducting studies and investigation of sites proposed for designation and making a recommendation to the City Council regarding proposed designation. The City Council is authorized to designate Historic Sites. In accordance with Section 8.05.180 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code, no person may undertake any of the following within or upon a Classl Historic Site without a Certificate of Approval from the HSPB: 1. Construction of a new structure; 2. The moving, demolition, or alteration of an existing structure in any manner which affects the exterior appearance of the structure; 3. A change in land use which affects the exterior appearance of a structure or the interior arrangement of the public buildings; 4. The erection, remodeling or replacing of a sign which affects the exterior appearance of a structure; Additionally, in accordance with Section 8.05.170 of the Municipal Code, at any time after the initiation of proceedings for designation of an historic site, the HSPB may, upon its own motion or upon the application of any interested person, issue an order staying any proposed or threatened demolition or alteration of the exterior of any structure within or upon such proposed site. Such stay order shall be effective for no longer than 120 days and is intended to afford time for necessary studies, hearings, and determination whether such site should be designated as a historic site. Such stay order may be extended once for a period not to exceed sixty days. Decisions of the HSPB may be appealed to City Council. MILLER HOUSE BACKGROUND The house was designed by Richard Neutra and constructed in 1937 for Grace Lewis Miller and has been recognized as the first desert modernist house. Neutra appreciated the interrelationships between architecture and well-being and Miller used the studio to conduct her exercise program. It was constructed in the International Style and contained less than 1200 square feet. The plan included a large studio-living-dining room,entered from a screen porch,with kitchen, bedroom,and baths to the west. A reflecting pool filled the southeast corner near the porch and living room. Miller appreciated the climate control that Neutra built into the house, including the pool, and especially the wide overhangs on the east, south, and west. In 1938, the house was included in a traveling exhibit of modern architecture while also winning the "House Beautiful Annual Small House Competition". The light cement structure with its silver-gray aluminum trim represented one of Neutra's masterworks. The minimalist detail of the house created an abstract effect and allowed the house to dissolve into the desert landscape. An example of the seamless transition between the structure and the natural landscape was the rock walk that surrounded the house. During Staff's site visit, it was determined that the building originally had a plaster (light cement) exterior but was stuccoed sometime after. In addition,the screened porch has been enclosed with glass windows but the owner desires to return the glass to screens in the future. Due to the deteriorated nature of the property the home was also re-framed and re-roofed. All remodeling work done has been in compliance with the Building Code and the owner will be seeking formal architectural approval for future changes to the exterior. Other additions are the new air conditioning equipment at the south side of the property and some interior fixtures. The original plans for the house showed a guest house that was attached to the garage, but was never constructed. The owner wishes to have the opportunity to build a guest house in the location as shown on the original site plan sometime in the future. As the lot area is 22,000 square feet, the allowable density for the subject property is 8 units, per Section 92.03.03 of the Zoning Ordinance. Therefore,an additional dwelling unit on the property would be permitted. Other planned additions include landscaping and a new wall to replace the existing chain link fence The subject property is zoned R-2. All exterior improvements are subject to Architectural Approval per Section 94.04.00 of the Palm Springs Zoning Ordinance. MILLER HOUSE DEFINING CHARACTERISTICS The defining characteristics of these homes are: Roof Line Reflecting Pool Screened porch Master bedroom 1qA), o4w_ Roof Line: There are corrugated aluminum bands around the roofline Pool: Shaded reflecting pool at southeast corner that acts as both climate control and creates lightness as water reflects off the ceiling. Screened Porch: The screened porch provided the entrance into the joint studio-living-dining room. Some of the screens have been replaced by glass windows. The owner indicates that they will be restored to their original condition. Master Bedroom: A creative addition to the master bedroom are the french doors which open and connect to the screen to create a screened porch and provide ventilation for the room. The HSPB recommends that all existing alterations be considered acceptable and that owners be encouraged, but not required, to bring altered elements to the original appearance. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND NOTIFICATION In accordance with Section 15308 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed designation is a Class 8 Categorical Exemption as it involves action taken by a regulatory agency to assure the maintenance, restoration, enhancement, or protection of the environment. All property owners within three hundred (300) feet of the subject site have been notified. As of the writing of this report, staff has not received any correspondence from adjacent property owners or the general public. Director ofePlanning and Building City Manager ATTACHMENTS 1.
