FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO <br />GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 <br />Resolution No. 2023-XXX <br />Page 6 of 12 <br /> <br /> <br />v. The project complies with Standard No. 6. Replacement of <br />missing features will be substantiated by documentary and <br />physical evidence. The original rear (west) façade wood <br />staircase at the building’s southwest corner (previously <br />removed) will be rehabilitated to look as close as possible to <br />the original while meeting current building code requirements. <br />The new wood staircase will have smaller gaps between <br />guardrails than the original. The upper landing’s guardrail <br />design will also change from a varied slat width to a uniform <br />slat width in order to provide a uniform design, and to <br />emphasize the Minimal Traditional style’s simplistic character. <br />The same staircase handrail and guardrail design will be <br />applied to the remaining two staircases located on the primary <br />(east) façade, again to emphasize a uniform design while <br />resembling the original design as close as possible. This <br />project includes no deteriorated historic features that require <br />repair. <br /> <br />vi. The project, as conditioned, complies with Standard No. 9. <br />The proposed building alterations will not destroy historic <br />materials, features, or spatial relationships that characterize <br />the property at the building’s primary (west and east) facades. <br />The majority of the proposed alterations are located at the rear <br />(west and north) façades in an area that is not as visible from <br />the public right-of-way. Important spatial relationships <br />characterizing the Minimal Traditional style will not be <br />disturbed as the alterations are located at the rear of the <br />existing multi-family building. The rebuilding of one staircase <br />at the southwest corner and the rehabilitation of two <br />staircases at the primary (east) façade shall match the original <br />staircase design and material as close as possible while <br />meeting building code. The new staircase features (handrails <br />and guardrails) will be differentiated from the old with less <br />guardrail spacing than typical Minimal Traditional exterior <br />wood staircases. However, the overall simplistic design along <br />with use of wood material to match the original, will be <br />compatible with the historic building. All window and door that <br />is not intended to be restored shall be infilled with stucco <br />material to match existing. <br /> <br />vii. The project complies with Standard No. 10. The proposed <br />project, as conditioned, is considered generally reversible, as <br />it does not remove essential aspects of the building’s form and <br />materials. The proposed building alterations will be primarily <br />located at the building’s secondary/rear facades, where it is <br />not generally visible from the public right-of-way, and avoids <br />    <br />Historic Resources Commission 30 10/5/2023 <br />
