B. The Charles Waffle House is individually listed as No. 452 on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties and categorized as "Contributive" in 2006. C. The Charles Waffle House has distinctive architectural features of the Tudor Revival style and was built in 1927, Character -defining features of the Charles Waffle House include materials and finishes (stucco and wood), roof configuration and detailing, original windows and doors, chimney, and architectural details (half-timbering and attic vents). D.

Exterior modifications include a 199 square foot expansion of the existing floor master bedroom and guest bedroom. In addition, the project proposes an interior remodel of the kitchen and dining area. However, the interior improvements are not within the purview of the Historic Resources Commission.

The legal owners of the property are Michael and Pamela Bishop. G. The legal description for the subject property is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated by this reference as though fully set forth herein. H. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30-6, the Historic Resources Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on January 24, 2019 for the request for exterior modifications to the Charles Waffle House. I. Since the property is listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties, all exterior modifications are required to meet the Secretary of Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. 1. The following Secretary of Interior's Standards are applicable i. Standard 1. The property currently maintains its historic use as a single-family residence. The use is not proposed to change. The interior configuration will remain substantially the same with the exterior additions providing enhanced functionality. ii. Standard No. 2. The proposed addition would be limited in square footage and proposed to be located toward the back elevation to preserve the character -defining elements of the home's front elevation. The removal of existing historic fabric will be limited to the smooth stucco siding, four double -hung wood windows, and a portion of the roof. The proposed work will not involve the removal or alteration of any other character -defining features, including the materials and finishes (wood), roof configuration and detailing, original windows and doors, chimney, and architectural details (half- timbering and attic vents). iii. Standard No. 3. No conjectural features or elements from other historic properties would be added under the Project. iv. Standard No. 5. The addition does not involve the removal of any historic fabric or character -defining features as noted under criterion 2 above, with exception of a limited area of smooth stucco siding and a portion of the roof towards the rear. The addition will involve the relocation of four existing double -hung windows in order to preserve historic materials and finishes to the greatest degree possible. Character - defining features such as the materials and finishes (wood), roof configuration and detailing, original windows and doors, chimney, and architectural details (half-timbering and attic vents) shall be preserved. V. Standard No. 9. The proposed addition and modification on the second floor will not involve the removal of historic materials, features, or spatial relationships, except as noted FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 in under Criteria 2 and 5 above. The addition in this area is compatible with the existing scale and massing of the residence and will be compatible with the Tudor Revival architectural style. The proposed work will be limited in square footage and located on the back elevation in order to preserve the character -defining front elevation and existing streetscape. Lastly, all new exterior materials will match the existing materials and the addition will incorporate a line of demarcation to differentiate the existing siding with the new. vi. Standard No. 10. Due to the additive nature of the proposal, the new work could be removed in the future and the property returned to its current form and environment. Further, if a future owner were to desire, most of the additions which have occurred in prior years could be removed as well. vii. Standards 4 and 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 project is designed in a manner consistent with the Secretary of Interior's Standards. Categorical Exemption No. ER-2018-128 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 Historic Exterior Modification Application No. 2018-23. The Historic Resources Commission finds that the proposed modifications do not substantially change the character and integrity of the historic property.
