<br />Environmental Checklist
<br />storage building is located to the rear of the house, which dates from the same period as the original
<br />1927 structure. Further to the east of the house addition, there are three separate small portable
<br />buildings.
<br />Even though the (louse and associated garage/storage building are of Craftsman-style architecture,
<br />and the primary street-front west elevation along Sullivan Street retains a moderate degree of
<br />architectural integrity, there has been an extensive addition to the east end of the house. Although
<br />the historical integrity is strong, this building does not meet the level of significance required to be
<br />eligible for the California Register of Historical Resources under Criterion 3, as a distinctive example
<br />of the Craftsman design. Further, under Criterion 1 and Criterion 2, the resource is not known to be
<br />associated in a significant way with events or persons important in history. On April 26, 2012, an
<br />attempt was made to obtain the original building permit at the City of Santa Ana Building Safety
<br />Division, but no permit was on file. The resource address was checked in the Historic Resources
<br />Inventory (HRI), but no listing was identified. Finally, the resource was checked in the Santa Ana
<br />Register of Historical Properties list, updated October 12, 2009, no listing was identified. As a result,
<br />the buildings located on the 719 South Sullivan Street Parcel are not historic resources, and
<br />implementation of the project would not result in impacts on historic resources on the northern
<br />portion of the project site.
<br />The 803 South Sullivan Street parcel (southern portion of the project site) contains three one-story
<br />buildings and a shed. The primary house, along Sullivan Street, is irregular in plan with a red tile
<br />multi-hipped roof with extended eaves and exposed rafters. The exterior walls are stucco with
<br />aluminum slider windows. The second building, located east of the primary house, is square in plan
<br />with a side-gable red tile roof, stucco exterior wall surface, and aluminum slider windows. The third
<br />building is square in plan, located to the east of the second house, has a front-gable roof with red
<br />tiles, stucco exterior wall surface, and aluminum slider windows. At the rear of the parcel there is a
<br />rectangular-covered shed, which is possibly used as a meditation room.
<br />The primary house and associated buildings were built in 1962. They do not possess any distinctive
<br />type of architectural style nor rise to the level of significance required to be eligible for the California
<br />Register of Historical Resources under Criterion 3, design and construction. Further under Criterion
<br />1 and Criterion 2, the resource is not known to be associated in a significant way with events or
<br />persons important in history. On April 26, 2012, an attempt was made to obtain the original building
<br />permit at the City of Santa Ana Building Safety Division, but no permit was on file. The resource
<br />address was checked in the If RI, but no listing was identified. Finally, the resource was checked in
<br />the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties list, updated October 12, 2009, no listing was
<br />identified. As a result, the buildings located on the 803 South Sullivan Street Parcel are not historic
<br />resources, and implementation of the project would not result in impacts on historic resources on
<br />the project site.
<br />Additionally, a review of the California Register of Historical Resources, the California Historical
<br />Landmarks, the California Points of Historical Interest, and the National Register of Historic Places
<br />has not listed any resources within the project area. As such, the proposed project would not result
<br />in impacts on historic resources.
