FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2023-XXX Page 4 of 9 not be disturbed as the addition is positioned to the rear of the existing house. The trellis, whose placement will be subordinate to the main house, will be placed far away from the front property line, with some visibility from the east and north facades. Although one porch and one patio will be removed at the rear, an existing covered porch will remain along the north wing at the rear, and the primary (east) façade’s front porch and entire façade will be unaltered. The materials of the new addition will be differentiated from the original building, as it will incorporate nine-and-a-half-foot- tall glass panels with aluminum mental frames. However, the addition’s design and material will be compatibly designed to reflect an open patio style with tall, fully glazed sliding doors that can open to the rear yard and wood-clad posts to reference the covered porch posts. New smooth stucco siding will reflect the existing sand stucco with a smoother finish to differentiate the old from new. Notably, the new built-up roof design will be distinct from the original shingle-clad gable roof; however, it will not be visible from any façade. Although a new roof will be added over the new internal connection near the garage, only a small portion of the existing roof will be altered to accommodate the addition and the new roof will match the existing shingle style. The trellis’ wood material shall compatibly reference the Ranch style’s wood features. vii. The project complies with Standard No. 10. The proposed project is considered generally reversible, as it does not remove essential aspects of the building’s form and materials. The proposed addition will be located in the rear of the house, where it is not generally visible from the public right-of-way, and avoids the most significant and character-defining features. The essential form of the house and the vast majority of its historic materials will remain unimpaired. Although the trellis will be visible from the primary and north facades, it is temporary in nature and can be removed without harming the historic building. viii. Standards 6-8 are not applicable. No features of this description would be affected by this Project. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the recommended action is exempt from further review under Section 15331, Class 31, as this action is designed in a manner consistent with the Secretary of Interior’s Standards. Categorical Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2023-85 will be filed for this project. Section 3. The Historic Resources Commission of the City of Santa Ana after conducting the public hearing hereby approves the Certificate of Appropriateness for
