HEMA No. 2024-01 – The Lacy-Murray House (501 W. 19th Street) May 8, 2024 Page 8 4 1 6 8 In conclusion, staff has determined that the project complies with The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Specifically, the analysis indicates that the proposed additions will be compatible and consistent with the existing architectural elements that reflect the original Mission/Spanish Colonial Revival style architecture while being mindful not to disturb the historic materials that characterize the property. By localizing the scope of work so that the additions are setback from the primary facade while maintaining a smaller massing than the historic building, and by differentiating the new work from the old, the property will maintain its historic and character-defining features. Most importantly, due to the additive nature, the proposed additions will allow for the option for them to be removed in such a way that the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment will be unimpaired. The role of the Historic Resources Commission is to issue a Certificate of Appropriateness upon finding that the proposed modifications do not substantially change the character and integrity of the historic properties per Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30-6, meet the Secretary of Interior’s Standards per CEQA and the City’s Certified Local Government agreement with the State of California. Staff finds that the historic exterior modification application meets the necessary criteria to be awarded a Certificate of Appropriateness and should be approved. It is also recommended that staff approve the exact materials and finishes to be used prior to installation to ensure quality and compatibility.
