Broadway) RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt a resolution approving Density Bonus Agreement Application No. 2022-01 as conditioned. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Brateil Aghasi, representing WISEPlace, on behalf of WISEPlace, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation (Property Owner), is requesting approval of a density bonus agreement (DBA) No. 2022-01 to allow the construction of an affordable 48-unit permanent supportive housing community at 1411 North Broadway. As proposed, the project will take advantage of waivers from development standards and/or development concessions through the density bonus agreement pursuant to California Government Code sections 65915 through 65918 and Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) Section 41- 1600 through 41-1607. The request satisfies the purpose and intent of the City’s Adaptive Reuse Ordinance and the Midtown Specific Plan (SP-3) zoning designation to promote a pedestrian-oriented environment with a mix of land uses, and will provide additional affordable housing stock to an underserved segment of the region’s population. As a result, staff recommends approval of the DBA. Historic Commission Action At its regular meeting on March 3, 2022, the Historic Resources Commission (HRC) considered Historic Exterior Modification Application (HEMA) No. 2022-02 to allow exterior modifications to the historic Santa Ana-Tustin Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) building located on the subject property. The HRC recommended approval of HEMA No. 2022-02, with added conditions, by a vote of 8:0 (Commissioner Frazier absent). 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –1 DBA No. 2022-01 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) May 9, 2022 Page 2 2 5 8 8 DISCUSSION Background The property is known as the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building and was constructed in 1950 and dedicated in February 1951. The building was Santa Ana YWCA’s first purpose-built headquarters and included a gymnasium, kitchen, nursery, lobby, meeting rooms, and offices. The building was individually listed as No. 63 on the local Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties (“Register”) in 2001 and was categorized as “Landmark.” Throughout the 1950s, the Santa Ana YWCA offered summer programs and adult classes and hosted various community events in its new building. The Santa Ana YWCA’s mission narrowed in the mid-1980s when the chapter began focusing more specifically on serving unhoused women. In order to support women experiencing homelessness in Santa Ana, an addition designed as a hotel was planned in 1985. This short-term housing facility comprised a tall second-floor addition at the rear of the building and was intended to address the hundreds of homeless women camping outside of the YWCA at that time. The construction of 20 double-occupancy rooms over the original gymnasium was completed in 1986, and the hotel opened in 1987. In 1999 the local YWCA reorganized as a new non-profit, WISEPlace, and disaffiliated from the National YWCA. WISEPlace (Women Inspired, Supported, and Empowered) is a transitional living center serving the needs of unaccompanied homeless women in Orange County. The new organization ended its ties with the YWCA in order to focus on their own mission statement. When it opened, WISEPlace offered meals and shelter for 30 women at a time and provided assistance and guidance enabling women to transition to independent living. In 2019 WISEPlace announced a partnership with Jamboree Housing Corporation with plans to modernize the subject building and construct permanent supportive housing at the facility. Project Description The property consists of a one- to two-story building (Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building) ranging from 9,266 square feet (one-story portion) and 5,896 square feet (two-story portion) in size. The proposed project includes the complete demolition of the two-story portion, the partial demolition of the one-story portion, and the reconstruction of a 34,552-square-foot building. The improvements are intended to facilitate the site’s development of an affordable rental residential community, consisting of forty-eight housing units and 7,459 square feet of open space. The development will consist of the rehabilitation and conversion of a portion of the existing one-story building into offices, a training center, community room, an onsite manager unit, and two residential units. The project also includes the construction of a new four-story building with flats/apartment 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –2 DBA No. 2022-01 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) May 9, 2022 Page 3 2 5 8 8 units over an at-grade parking area with 20 parking spaces to accommodate residents, visitors, and staff. Of the 48 units proposed, one unit would be set aside as an onsite manager two-bedroom unit, approximately 979 square feet in size, with a full kitchen, bathroom, in-unit storage, and open/common (living) areas. Forty-seven units are proposed as permanent supportive housing (PSH) units, affordable to individuals earning less than thirty percent (30%) of the area median income (AMI). The PSH units would range in size from 400 to 599 square feet, and would be designed as studios containing full kitchens, bedrooms, bathrooms, and open/common (living) areas. The development will feature onsite amenities such as communal laundry facilities on the second through fourth floor, onsite bicycle storage, a computer room, offices spaces, community rooms, outdoor courtyards, a dog run area, and a 348-square-foot fitness room. Open space will be provided through two private exterior areas approximately 8,055 square feet in size. One area will be a courtyard located on the ground floor and would be approximately 4,236 square feet in size, while the second would be a roof deck on the fourth floor and would be approximately 852 square feet in size. The design and layout of the proposed open space would create a unique outdoor area within the development, which function as a passive outdoor space and provide functional amenities to residents, such as a proposed dog run area on the ground floor courtyard. Moreover, the ground floor courtyard features a robust landscape palette with seating options and a variety of hardscaping materials, trees, and shrubs. The proposed trees and shrubs include, but are not limited to, forest pansy and strawberry trees, douglas iris, Mexican marigold, coastal woolly bush, foxtail agave, foothill sedge, and California bay laurel. The roof deck would feature high-quality seating and landscape planters. While the new construction will result in complete and partial demolition of the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building, the project will preserve most of the historic materials and features of the one-story portion, including its overall form, low-pitched clay tile roof, board-formed concrete walls, north façade porch, French doors, and most steel windows. The overall design, massing, features, and materials of the new construction will be compatible with, but differentiated from the remaining historic portion of the building. The addition will reflect a simplified, Spanish Colonial Revival aesthetic, with a low-pitched gable roof covered in clay tiles, stucco-clad walls, and punched rectangular window openings. The new construction will be significantly set back from North Broadway in order to minimize its visibility and overall visual impact on the historic character of the existing building from the public right-of-way. It will be compatible with, but distinct from the existing historic building. Overall, the project will include solid materials that will ensure that the project ages well for the duration of the building’s lifetime. The project is proposed to be entirely affordable with 47 units of permanent supportive housing for unhoused, unaccompanied women experiencing chronic homelessness. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –3 DBA No. 2022-01 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) May 9, 2022 Page 4 2 5 8 8 During the density bonus agreement term, the units are to be rented to, or held vacant and available for immediate occupancy by extremely-low income tenants. These affordable units will rent to individuals who earns less than 30% of the AMI for Orange County. Table 1: Project and Location Information Adaptive Reuse Ordinance As designed, the project is proposed to meet the City’s Adaptive Reuse Ordinance (Article XVI.II of the SAMC). The purpose of the ordinance is to provide alternative development standards for the conversion of eligible buildings, or portions thereof, in project incentive areas from nonresidential uses to dwelling units. The Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building is eligible for adaptive reuse as it is located within the project incentive area, was constructed prior to July 1, 1974, and has been determined to be a historically significant building. Pursuant to the ordinance, residential uses are permitted in the project incentive areas irrespective of the underlying zoning as part of an approved adaptive reuse project. The change in use is subject to five development standards, including minimum units size; required commercial/retail space; common area spaces; open space; and compliance with Chapter 30 (Places of Historical And Architectural Significance) of the SAMC, façade easements and any other related historic guidelines, including the Secretary of the Interior Standards for any necessary exterior modifications. In addition to the above- mentioned development standards, the project would also be subject to the Item Information Project Address and Council Ward 1411 North Broadway – Ward 5 Nearest Intersection North Broadway and West 15th Street General Plan Designation Professional and Administrative Office (PAO) Zoning Designation Midtown Specific Plan (SP-3) North Commercial/Professional Offices East Commercial/Professional Offices South Professional Offices Surrounding Land Uses West Multi-Family Residences and Professional Offices Property Size 0.60 acres (26,136 square feet) Existing Site Development The subject site is developed with a one- to two-story institutional building known as the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building.

Density Bonus The California Density Bonus law allows developers proposing five or more residential units to seek increases in base density for providing on-site housing units in exchange for providing affordable units on site. To help make constructing on-site affordable units feasible, the law allows developers to seek up to three incentives/concessions and an unlimited number of waivers, which are essentially variances from development standards that would help the project be built without significant burden and without detriment to public health. The first version of the Density Bonus Law was adopted in 1979 and has since been amended at various times. Recent revisions allow affordable housing developers to request incentives/concessions and/or waivers for 100-percent affordable developments, even if they do not require a numerical density bonus. Moreover, in early 2017, the law was amended to restrict the ability of local jurisdictions to require studies to “justify” the density bonus and requested incentives/waivers and places the onus on local jurisdictions to prove that the incentives/concessions or waivers are not financially warranted. The purpose of the State Density Bonus Law is to encourage the development and availability of affordable housing by requiring the inclusion of affordable housing units within new developments. Pursuant to California Government Code sections 65915 (d)(1) and 65915 (e)(1), a local jurisdiction is limited in its ability to deny requested concessions and waivers and is preempted from denying the Density Bonus Agreement application. Due to the project’s 100-percent affordability rate the developer can seek up to three density bonus concessions and unlimited waivers, pursuant to Section 65915 et al. of the California Government Code (Density Bonuses and Other Incentives). Although the City has analyzed the project for several areas of concern, the conditions of approval proposed for the project are intended to address any of the project’s potential impacts. Table 2 outlines the incentives/concessions and waivers requested by the applicant. Table 2 Requested Incentives/Concessions Standard Required Provided Building Height and Number of Stories The maximum building height for all buildings is 35 feet, or three stories, whichever is less – Broadway Corridor District of the Midtown Specific Plan (SP-3) zoning designation The new building is proposed at a height of 54 feet and 6- inches and four stories – Requires Concession (1 of 3), Cal. Gov’t Code Sec. 65915 (d)(1)(2)(B) Underground Utility Installations All utilities as part of the proposed project shall be required to be installed underground – Section 41- 626 of SAMC - Underground utility installations. All proposed utilities will be undergrounded with the exception of existing overhead power lines over the existing building along with 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –5 DBA No. 2022-01 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) May 9, 2022 Page 6 2 5 8 8 Standard Required Provided recorded Southern California Easement (to remain) – Requires Concession (2 of 3), Cal. Gov’t Code Sec. 65915 (d)(1)(2)(B) As designed, the project is eligible to exercise its ability to seek State density bonus incentives and/or concessions because it is a 100-percent affordable project for permanent supportive housing. However, the project does not seek an increase in allowable dwelling units as the project is designed as an adaptive reuse project. Pursuant to Article XVI.II (Adaptive Reuse) in the SAMC, adaptive reuse projects can exceed the maximum general plan density provided the adaptive reuse project complies with the development standards. In addition, the site is parked in compliance with California Government Code Section Cal. 65915 (p)(4). Pursuant to the California Density Bonus Law, and upon the request of the developer, a City cannot not impose any minimum vehicular parking requirement for a rental supportive housing development, as defined in Section 50675.14 of the California Health and Safety Code. Although not required to provide parking, the site provides 20 total parking spaces, or 0.42 spaces per unit, which includes two accessible parking stalls. Lastly, pursuant to the adaptive reuse ordinance, parking spaces are not be required for any converted use within the building. Therefore, no parking is required for the administrative/residential portions of the converted building within the one-story portion of the building. Analysis of the Issues Pursuant to Section 41-1607 of the SAMC, an application for a density bonus agreement is required to be approved by the Planning Commission for any project containing “deviations” (incentives/concessions and/or waivers). The Planning Commission’s review of the density bonus agreement is based on the following findings: 1. The proposed development will materially assist in accomplishing the goal of providing affordable housing opportunities in economically balanced communities throughout the city. 2. The development will not be inconsistent with the purpose of the underlying zone or applicable designation in the general plan land use element. 3. The deviation is necessary to make it economically feasible for the applicant to utilize a density bonus authorized for the development pursuant to section 41- 1603. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –6 DBA No. 2022-01 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) May 9, 2022 Page 7 2 5 8 8 Because the project does not require a Site Plan Review Application, review and analysis of the proposed project’s land use, site planning and architectural design is not within the Planning Commission’s purview. Therefore, the following subsections analyze the applicant’s request for the Density Bonus Agreement application only. Table 3: Analysis of the Requested Incentives/Concessions (3) and Waivers (2) Standard Analysis Building Height and Number of Stories (Incentive/Concession) The maximum height permitted in the Corridor District of the Midtown Specific Plan (SP-3) is 35 feet or three stories (whichever is less). As proposed, the maximum height of the new structure would be 54-feet, six- inches, and four-stories. However, only the stairwell and elevator penthouse will be at the maximum height, the rest of the four-story structure would be 46-feet, eleven-inches in height. The proposed fourth story is needed to make construction of the residential development financially feasible. As designed, the upper three levels above the ground floor parking are needed to accommodate space for the forty-five of the on-site affordable units. The proposed parking stalls account for one above-grade level of the building, adding to the overall height of the development and restricting the residential units to three levels. The application of the three-story maximum building height standard would physically preclude construction of the permanent supportive housing project. Lastly, the proposed new construction will only be a few feet taller than the existing north-south wing (two-story portion) of the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building that it is replacing. The existing north-south wing is approximately 48 feet in height, while the four-story structure is proposed to be 46-feet, eleven-inches in height. The new construction will be significantly set back from North Broadway in order to minimize its visibility and overall visual impact on the historic character of the existing building from the public right- of-way. Underground Utility Installations (Inventive/Concession) The SAMC requires that all utilities be installed underground when: (1) Any property is developed with a new or relocated building or structure; or (2) When an addition is proposed to a multi-family or non-residential structure in excess of twenty-five (25) percent of the existing floor area. The existing project site conditions include an overhead utility pole with overhead power lines over the existing building along with a recorded SCE easement. The design is proposed to preserve the historic materials and features of the east-west wing (one-story portion) of the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building, including its overall form, low-pitched clay tile roof, board-formed concrete walls, north façade porch, French doors, most steel windows. Undergrounding the existing overhead power lines would compromise the historic one-story portion and would result in the demolition of the historic materials and features, to a point where the essential form and integrity of the historic building and its environment would be impaired. Therefore, the project would not comply with Chapter 30 (Places of Historical And Architectural Significance) of the SAMC, nor comply with the Secretary of the Interior Standards, and would potentially result in a loss of a cultural resource. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –7 DBA No. 2022-01 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) May 9, 2022 Page 8 2 5 8 8 Standard Analysis Lastly, the undergrounding of the overhead power lines would result in the loss of three units, and essential services to the residential community, including offices, a training center, and a community room. In order to maintain the current proposed unit count and offer the proposed site amenities, the developer would be required to provide new construction (rather than adaptive reuse), further increasing development costs. When analyzed cumulatively, the two requested concessions could be avoided if the project were designed on a different site, using a different site plan, or demolished a cultural resource. If the project were designed with a subterranean parking structure, designed with reduced massing (one less level), or designed to demolish and replace the one-story portion of the historic building, additional area on site would become available to allow for the undergrounding the overhead utilities, and would allow the project to meet the required height requirement. However, these changes would reduce the number of units that could be constructed on the site and therefore reduce the number of affordable housing units that would result from the project. In addition, the changes would increase development costs and reduce the financial feasibility of redeveloping the site, resulting in the affordable housing project becoming financially infeasible due to the significantly increased financial implications. Public Notification The applicant held a virtual Sunshine Ordinance community meeting on February 3, 2022. This meeting was publicly noticed in the OC Register, posted on the City’s website, and invitation mailers were sent to all addresses within a 1000-foot radius of the project site, as well as local community organizations. The meeting included a presentation on the project as well as a question and answer period to address concerns and collect feedback. Approximately 17 individuals attended the meeting. On March 9, 2022, the applicant held a second virtual Sunshine Ordinance community meeting. This meeting was also publicly noticed in the OC Register, posted on the City’s website, and invitation mailers were sent to all addresses within a 1000-foot radius of the project site, as well as local community organizations. The meeting included a brief presentation and summary on the project, a summary of the HRC public hearing and actions, as well as a question and answer period to address concerns and collect feedback. Approximately 14 individuals attended the meeting. Materials from both the February 3 and March 9 meetings were posted to the project’s webpage on the City’s website. The subject site is not located within any one specific Neighborhood Association. However, the site is adjacent to the Lacy, French Court, and Willard neighborhood association boundaries. The presidents of these neighborhood associations were notified by mail 10 days prior to this public hearing. In addition, the project site was 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –8 DBA No. 2022-01 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) May 9, 2022 Page 9 2 5 8 8 posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter and mailed notices were sent to all property owners within 1,000 feet of the project site. At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either written or electronic, had been received from any members of the public. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Pursuant to the Adaptive Reuse Ordinance (Ordinance No. NS-2874), the proposed project is found and determined to be consistent with the General Plan of the City of Santa Ana. Therefore, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the recommended action is exempt from further review under Section 15194 (Affordable Housing Exemption), as this project meets all the required criteria as a 100-percent affordable/permanent supportive housing development. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2022-05 will be filed for this project. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. EXHIBIT(S) 1.

The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: 1. Brateil Aghasi, representing W ISEPlace, on behalf of WISEPlace, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation (Property Owner), is requesting approval of Density Bonus Agreement Application No. 2022-01, as conditioned, to allow the construction of an affordable 48-unit permanent supportive housing community at 1411 North Broadway. 2. The City’s Adaptive Reuse Ordinance was adopted in 2014 in support of the General Plan policies of encouraging high -density residential development within the City's District Centers, in support of projects that contribute to the redevelopment and revitalization of the urban centers, promotion of rehabilitation of commercial properties, and support of development which provides a positive contribution to neighborhood character and identity. The City found and determined that the Adaptive Reuse Ordinance was consistent with the General Plan of the City of Santa Ana. 3. The California Density Bonus law allows developers to seek increases in base density for providing on-site housing units in exchange for providing affordable units on site. To help make constructing on-site affordable units feasible, the law allows developers to seek incentives /concessions or waivers that would help the project be built without significant burden and without detriment to public health. 4. The project is eligible to exercise its ability to seek State density bonus incentives and/or concessions because it is a 100 -percent affordable project for permanent supportive housing, less one (1) manager’s unit. However, the project does not seek an increase in allowable dwelling units as the project is designed as an adaptive reuse project. 5. On March 3, 2022, the Historic Resources Commission (HRC) held a duly noticed public hearing to consider Historic Exterior Modification Application (HEMA) No. 2022-02 to allow exterior modifications to the historic Santa 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –10 Resolution No. 2022-xx Page 2 of 12 Ana-Tustin Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) building. The HRC recommended approval of HEMA No. 2022-02, with added conditions, by a vote of 8:0 (Commissioner Frazier absent). 6. Density Bonus Agreement Application No. 2022-01 was originally agendized for the April 25, 2022, Planning Commission meeting. However, at the request of staff the Planning Commission voted to continue the item to the May 9, 2022, Planning Commission meeting, without opening up the public hearing for testimony, written and oral. 7. On May 9, 2022, the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana held the duly noticed, continued public hearing regarding the density bonus application and at that time considered all testimony, written and oral. 8. Section 41-1607 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) requires an application for a density bonus agreement containing deviations (incentives/concessions and/or waivers) to be approved by the Planning Commission. 9. The Planning Commission determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant this Density Bonus Agreement application pursuant to SAMC Section 41-1607, have been established for Density Bonus Agreement No. 2022-01 to allow construction of the proposed project: 1. The proposed development will materially assist in accomplishing the goal of providing affordable housing opportunities in economically balanced communities throughout the city. The proposed development will provide 47 permanent supportive rental-housing units and one (1) onsite manager unit, contributing toward the City’s rental housing stock to serve the needs of diverse and underserved populations. The request satisfies the purpose and intent of the City’s Adaptive Reuse Ordinance and the Midtown Specific Plan (SP -3) zoning designation to promote a pedestrian-oriented environment with a mix of land uses, and will provide additional affordable housing stock to an underserved segment of the region’s population. Moreover, the construction of this project will contribute toward an economically balanced community by providing housing for different demographic and income levels in an area rich with employment opportunities, commercial development, and market-rate housing. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –11 Resolution No. 2022-xx Page 3 of 12 2. The development will not be inconsistent with the purpose of the underlying zone or applicable designation in the general plan land use element. At the time of adoption, the City found that the Adaptive Reuse Ordinance would not adversely affect the character, livability or appropriate development in the City and that the adaptive reuse ordinance is consistent with the goals, objectives and provisions of the City's General Plan. Pursuant to the ordinance, residential uses are permitted in the project incentive areas irrespective of the underlying zoning as part of an approved adaptive reuse project. Therefore, pursuant to the Adaptive Reuse Ordinance, the proposed project is found and determined to be consistent with the purpose of the underlying zone or applicable designation in the general plan land use element . Moreover, the project supports the Adaptive Reuse Ordinance and General Plan policies of: encouraging high-density residential development within the City's District Centers; promoting rehabilitation of commercial properties; supporting development which provides a positive contribution to neighborhood character and identity; encouraging the retention and reuse of historical buildings and sites; and encourage development which provides a clean and safe environment for the City's residents, workers and visitors. 3. The deviation is necessary to make it economically feasible for the Applicant to utilize a density bonus authorized for the development pursuant to section 41-1603. The proposed project requires two deviations through incentives/concessions: (1) Building Height and Number of Stories; and (2) Underground Utility Installations. The two deviations are described as follows: Building Height and Number of Stories (Incentive/Concession) The maximum height permitted in the Corridor District of the Midtown Specific Plan (SP-3) is 35 feet or three stories (whichever is less). As proposed, the height of the new structure would be 54 feet, six inches (54’6”), and four-stories. The proposed fourth story is needed to make construction of the residential development financially feasible. As designed, the upper three levels above the ground floor parking are 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –12 Resolution No. 2022-xx Page 4 of 12 needed to accommodate space for 45 of the on-site affordable units. The proposed parking stalls account for one above - grade level of the building, adding to the overall height of the development and restricting the residential units to three levels. The application of the three-story maximum building height standard would physically preclude construction of the permanent supportive housing project. Lastly, the proposed new construction will only be a few inches taller than the existing north-south wing (two-story portion) of the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building. Additionally, the new construction will be significantly set back from North Broadway in order to minimize its visibility and overall visual impact on the historic character of the existing building from the public right-of-way. Underground Utility Installations (Inventive/Concession) The SAMC requires that all utilities be installed underground when: (1) Any property is developed with a new or relocated building or structure; or (2) When an addition is proposed to a multi-family or non-residential structure in excess of twenty- five (25) percent of the existing floor area. The existing project site conditions include an overhead utility pole with overhead power lines over the existing building along with a recorded SCE easement. The design is proposed to preserve the historic materials and features of the east-west wing (one-story portion) of the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building, including its overall form, low- pitched clay tile roof, board-formed concrete walls, north façade porch, French doors, most steel windows. Undergrounding the existing overhead power lines would compromise the historic one-story portion and would result in the demolition of the historic materials and features, to a point where the essential form and integrity of the historic building and its environment would be impaired. Therefore, the project would not comply with Chapter 30 (Places of Historical And Architectural Significance) of the SAMC, nor comply with the Secretary of the Interior Standards, and would potentially result in a loss of a cultural resource. Lastly, the undergrounding of the overhead power lines would result in the loss of three units, and essential services to the residential community, including offices, a training center, and 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –13 Resolution No. 2022-xx Page 5 of 12 a community room. In order to maintain the current proposed unit count and offer the proposed site amenities, the developer would be required to provide new construction (rather than adaptive reuse), further increasing development costs. When analyzed cumulatively, the two requested concessions could be avoided if the project were designed on a different site, using a different site plan, or demolished a cultural resource. If the project were designed with a subterranean parking structure, designed with reduced massing (one less level), or designed to demolish and replace the one-story portion of the historic building, additional area on site would become available to allow for the undergrounding the overhead utilities, and would allow the project to meet the required height requirement. However, these changes would reduce the number of units that could be constructed on the site and therefore reduce the number of affordable housing units that would result from the project. In addition, the changes would increase development costs and reduce the financial feasibility of redeveloping the site, resulting in the affordable housing project becoming financially infeasible due to the significantly increased financial implications. 10. The Applicant agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the City of Santa Ana, its officials, officers, agents, and employees, from any and all liability, claims, actions or proceedings that may be brought arising out of its approval of this project, and any approvals associated with the project, including, without limitation, any environmental review or approval, except to the extent caused by the sole negligence of the City of Santa Ana. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the recommended action is exempt from further review under Section 15194 (Affordable Housing Exemption), as this project meets all the required criteria as a 100-percent affordable/permanent supportive housing development. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2022-05 will be filed for this project. Section 3. The Applicant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, authorized volunteers, and instrumentalities thereof, harmless from any and all claims, demands, lawsuits, writs of mandamus, referendum, and other proceedings (whether legal, equitable, declaratory, administrative or adjudicatory in nature), and alternative dispute resolution procedures (including, but not limited to arbitrations, mediations, and such other procedures), judgments, orders, and decisions (collectively “Actions”), brought against the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof, that challenge, attack, or seek to modify, set aside, void, or annul, any action of, or any permit or approval issued by the City and/or 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –14 Resolution No. 2022-xx Page 6 of 12 any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof (including actions approved by the voters of the City) for or concerning the project, whether such Actions are brought under the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning and Zoning Law, the Subdivision Map Act, Code of Civil Procedure sections 1085 or 1094.5, or any other federal, state or lo cal constitution, statute, law, ordinance, charter, rule, regulation, or any decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. It is expressly agreed that the City shall have the right to approve the legal counsel providing the City’s defense, and that Applicant shall reimburse the City for any costs and expenses directly and necessarily incurred by the City in the course of the defense. City shall promptly notify the Applicant of any Action brought and City shall cooperate with Applicant in the defense of the Action. Section 4. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana, after conducting the public hearing, hereby approves Density Bonus Agreement No. 2022-01 as conditioned for the construction of an affordable 48-unit rental residential community for the project located at 1411 North Broadway, as conditioned in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein.

Prehistoric Historic Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Mission/Spanish Colonial Revival DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND RELATED TO PERIOD ARCHITECTURE: The Mission/Spanish Colonial Revival style, as its name implies, encompasses two major subcategories. The Mission Revival vocabulary, popular between 1890 and 1920, drew its inspiration from the missions of the Southwest. Identifying features include curved parapets (or espadana); red tiled roofs and coping; low-pitched roofs, often with overhanging eaves; porch roofs supported by large, square piers; arches; and wall surfaces commonly covered in smooth stucco. The Spanish Colonial Revival flourished between 1915 and 1940, reaching its apex during the 1920s and 1930s. The movement received widespread attention after the Panama- California Exposition in San Diego in 1915, where lavish interpretations of Spanish and Mexican prototypes were showcased. Easily recognizable hallmarks of the Spanish Colonial Revival are low-pitched roofs, usually with little or no overhangs and red tile roof coverings, flat roofs surrounded by tiled parapets, and stuccoed walls. The Spanish vocabulary also includes arches, asymmetry, balconies and patios, window grilles, and wood, wrought iron, tile, or stone decorative elements. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –26 Page 2 of 4 cm\historic\templates\Broadway 1411 N 6/19/01 CONSTRUCTION HISTORY: (Construction data, alterations, and date of alterations) July 6, 1950: Construct YWCA recreation and office building. April 9, 1951: Finish auditorium for YWCA. April 28, 1952: Neon sign for YWCA. November 23, 1960: Interior alterations for YWCA. August 15, 1975: New locker & shower room for YWCA. April 21, 1986: Add second story [above existing gymnasium], remodel room adjacent to gym. RELATED FEATURES: (Other important features such as barns, sheds, fences, prominent or unusual trees, or landscape) None noted. DESCRIPTION: (Describe resource and its major elements. Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, settings, and boundaries.) A one-story, L-shaped building that extends from Broadway east to Sycamore Street, the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA exhibits the combination of Mediterranean and California Ranch style features that is typical of the post World War II Spanish Colonial Revival style. It is strongly horizontal in orientation, with a very low-pitched gable roof clad in red clay tile extending past the building to shelter a loggia. Substantial square piers support the overhang. The Broadway elevation is dominated by a large, central red brick chimney, flanked on each side by pairs of steel sash multi-paned windows, reflecting the use of the space inside as a living room. A gymnasium/auditorium is located in the eastern, Sycamore wing. The building has little architectural detailing, and the landscaping is neat and simple. Modifications include the addition of a second story above the gymnasium, requiring the enclosure of some window and door openings and application of new coating of stucco. HISTORIC HIGHLIGHTS: Declaring “the girls of today are the wives, mothers, homemakers, business women, voters, and civic leaders of tomorrow . . .let us here at home pay more attention to our own girls and young women by helping the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA have a building of its own at last,” the leadership of the YWCA kicked off its 1949-1950 building campaign. The local YWCA was an outgrowth of the movement started in 1924 by Ralph Smedley at the YMCA. Initially, the YWCA met at the YMCA, moving to rented quarters in several locations over the next quarter of a century. The organization acquired three contiguous lots on Sycamore and Broadway in the 1940s and engaged architect Harold Gimeno to design the new facility. Ground was broken in June 1950 and construction on the new $114,000 building begun by the Allison Honer Company. The new YWCA was dedicated in February 1951, with some interior work, including the auditorium, finished over the next few months. The building is currently (2001) in its 50th year of service.

Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative townsite on part of the Spanish land grant known as Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. Early growth and development was stimulated by the arrival of the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1878 and the Santa Fe Railroad in 1886. By the end of the 1880s, Santa Ana’s downtown business district was defined by five city blocks of brick commercial buildings on Fourth Street, with the heart of the city at the intersection of Fourth and Main Streets. Following its incorporation as a city in 1886, Santa Ana was recognized as one of the leading communities in the area in 1889 when it became the seat of the newly created County of Orange. From the beginning, social and fraternal organizations played an important role in the history of the town. The Masons and the Oddfellows both organized in 1875, and were followed before the close of the decade by the Good Templars Lodge and the Workmen Lodge. Dedicated to community service and fellowship, such organizations sponsored community events, often held in halls constructed for the purpose. Spurred by the growth the community experienced during the 1920s, several new associations were founded, and many older groups constructed new homes. The Santa-Tustin YWCA building, constructed in 1950, represents a third generation of club buildings to grace the community. The YWCA evolved from the YMCA movement started in 1924 by Ralph Smedley. There were many organizations within the YWCA framework, including the young businesswomen’s group; girl’s reserve programs; teen clubs; meetings for the wives of servicemen stationed in the area during and after World War II; a newcomers club; class for mothers of small children; a senior social club; and other classes and seminars. Dedicated in February of 1951, the YWCA has continued to serve the community with important programs from this building and represents a significant historic pattern in the development of Santa Ana. Exhibiting the simplicity of design characteristic of the post World War II Spanish Colonial Revival, the YWCA is also significant for architectural merit. Character-defining exterior features of the building, which should be preserved, include, but may not be limited to: roof configuration and materials; stucco cladding; brick chimney; original fenestration; loggia; and the horizontal emphasis of the building’s massing. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The YWCA building is included in the Santa Ana Register of Historic Property, meeting Criteria 1 for distinguishing characteristics of an architectural style or period and Criteria 4 for historical significance related to association with a renowned organization. The building has been categorized as “Landmark” because it “has historical/cultural significance to the City of Santa Ana” (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). The property also appears to be eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources.

Broadway) RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt a resolution approving a Certificate of Appropriateness for Historic Exterior Modification Application No. 2022-02. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Brateil Aghasi, representing WISEPlace, is requesting approval of Historic Exterior Modification Application (HEMA) No. 2022-02 to allow exterior modifications for the Santa Ana-Tustin Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) building located at 1411 N. Broadway. The modifications are associated with the rehabilitation of the building into a proposed affordable housing community that will provide permanent accommodations for unhoused women. The property was listed as “Landmark” on the local Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties (“Register”) in 2001. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located along North Broadway, south of 15th Street and between Broadway and Sycamore Street. The General Plan land use designation for the site is Professional and Administrative Office (PAO) and is located within the Broadway Corridor District of the Midtown Specific Plan (SP-3) zoning designation. The property consists of an L-shaped parcel developed with a one- to two-story institutional building ranging from 9,266 square feet (one-story portion) and 5,896 square feet (two-story portion), on an approximately 0.60-acre lot. The property is known as the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building and is individually listed as No. 63 on the Register. It was placed on the Register in 2001 and was categorized as “Landmark,” following an intensive-level survey evaluation by Science Applications International Corporation in 2001. The survey determined that the building was eligible for listing as a local landmark under Santa Ana Criterion 1 for embodying the “distinguishing characteristics” of the Spanish Colonial Revival style and under Santa 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –45 HEMA No. 2022-02 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) March 3, 2022 Page 2 2 4 4 2 Ana Criterion 4 for its association with the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA, an important social and cultural institution in the community. The evaluation also notes that the building appeared eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources. However, the building is not designated under federal (National Register) or state (California Register) programs. The property is a late and modest example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style applied to an institutional building in Santa Ana. While the building retains some elements of the style, including an asymmetrical floor plan, horizontal massing, and a low-pitched roof with clay tile roofing, it represents a rather modest, late interpretation of the architectural idiom and does not possess high artistic values. Moreover, the building is associated with postwar institutional development patterns in the Santa Ana. Specifically, the building is associated with the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA, an important social and cultural institution in the city. Although associated with Santa Ana’s postwar institutional development patterns, the building has undergone major changes since its construction, most notably a large upper-story addition atop the building’s north-south wing in the mid-1980s and the infill of some windows and doors. Character-defining features of the former YWCA building include: Prominent street frontage on North Broadway Rectangular massing Low-pitched asymmetrical gable roof at the east-west wing Clay tile roofing at the east-west wing (clay tiles replaced in kind) Board-formed, painted concrete walls at the east-west wing Entry porch at the north façade of the east-west wing Multi-light wood French doors at the north façade of the east-west wing Punched window openings holding multi-light steel windows at the east-west wing Exterior brick chimney centered on the west façade gable end of the east-west wing Open lounge/community room at the west end of the east-west wing Double-loaded corridor flanked by smaller rooms in the east-west wing Open lounge/community room at the west end of the east-west wing (interior) Double-loaded corridor flanked by smaller rooms in the east-west wing (interior) Background The Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building was constructed in 1950 and dedicated in February 1951. It was built for approximately $114,000, designed by architect Harold Gimeno, and constructed by notable local builder, Allison Honer. The building was Santa Ana YWCA’s first purpose-built headquarters and included a gymnasium, kitchen, nursery, lobby, meeting rooms, and offices. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –46 HEMA No. 2022-02 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) March 3, 2022 Page 3 2 4 4 2 The Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA was established in 1924 and officially became a chapter of the National YWCA in 1925. Originally holding weekly meetings at the Santa Ana YMCA building (205 W. Civic Center Drive), the local YWCA chapter relocated to the Masonic building on 5th and Sycamore streets in 1925. From its founding, the organization offered myriad classes and recreation activities, hosted summer camps and networking events, and provided a place for socialization and refuge for women in the community. By the early 1940s, the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA had an active membership of several hundred. Santa Ana experienced a population boom in the postwar era, resulting in a rise in membership of its community organizations, including the YWCA. After operating out of five different rented facilities for 26 years, the local chapter saw the need for new, expanded facilities to accommodate its influx of members, and a building fund campaign commenced in 1949. Throughout the 1950s, the Santa Ana YWCA continued to offer summer programs and adult classes and hosted various community events in its new building. In 1963 the chapter officially changed their name to the Santa Ana-South Orange County YWCA to address growing membership outside of the city. The building continued to provide the same programming as it had since its establishment. The Santa Ana YWCA’s mission narrowed in the mid-1980s when the chapter began focusing more specifically on serving unhoused women. In order to support women experiencing homelessness in Santa Ana, a ‘hotel’ addition was planned in 1985. This short-term housing facility comprised a tall second-floor addition at the rear of the building and was intended to address the hundreds of homeless women camping outside of the YWCA at that time. The construction of 20 double-occupancy rooms over the original gymnasium was completed in 1986, and the hotel opened in 1987. In 1999 the local YWCA reorganized as a new non-profit, WISEPlace, and disaffiliated from the National YWCA. WISEPlace (Women Inspired, Supported, and Empowered) is a transitional living center serving the needs of unaccompanied homeless women in Orange County. The new organization severed ties with the YWCA in order to focus on their own mission statement. When it opened, WISEPlace offered meals and shelter for 30 women at a time and provided assistance and guidance enabling women to transition to independent living. In 2019 WISEPlace announced a partnership with Jamboree Housing Corporation with plans to modernize the building at 1411 N. Broadway and construct permanent supportive housing at the facility. Project Description The applicant is proposing rehabilitation of the building into a proposed housing development that will provide permanent accommodations for unhoused, unaccompanied women. The majority of the one-story east-west wing of the historic 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –47 HEMA No. 2022-02 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) March 3, 2022 Page 4 2 4 4 2 building (stretching roughly 123 feet from the front/west façade to the rear) will be rehabilitated for use as offices, a training center, community room, and three residential studio units. Construction of new program will necessitate partial interior demolition on the wing; however, the overall floor plan of the wing (community room at the west end and double-loaded corridor flanked by smaller rooms) will remain the same. The wing that runs north-south along the east property line (which has been significantly altered by the 1986 upper-story addition) will be demolished and replaced with a new four-story addition in the approximate location and footprint of the existing wing. The new addition will have parking at ground level and residential units, laundry rooms, and communal space at the upper levels. The addition will be significantly set back from the west property line (approximately 145 feet) and only two inches taller than the existing north-south wing so as to minimize its visibility from the property’s primary street frontage on North Broadway. As proposed, the new construction will be designed as a simplified, contemporary variation of the Spanish Colonial Revival style, with elements such as a low-pitched clay tile roof, rectangular massing, and stucco wall cladding. It will be compatible with, but distinct from the existing historic building. The redevelopment requires review and approval of the subject HEMA application by the Historic Resources Commission, as well as approval of a Density Bonus Agreement by the Planning Commission and City Council. Analysis of the Issues As proposed, the project will follow the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards (the Standards) for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring, & Reconstructing Historic Buildings (Kay D. Weeks and Anne E. Grimmer, revised 2017). The proposed exterior modifications would be considered a rehabilitation project and as such be evaluated against ten criteria. To assist with determining the project’s conformance with the Standards, the applicant has provided a Historic Resource Assessment prepared by their historic consultants, Katie Horak, Principal; Evanne St. Charles, Senior Associate; and Rosa Lisa Fry, all with Architectural Resources Group (ARG). These individuals meets the minimum professional qualifications as required by the Standards to perform historical identification, evaluation, registration, and treatment activities. ARG’s findings and conclusions with respect to the project’s compliance with the Standards are attached for the Historic Resources Commission’s (HRC’s) consideration. The following is a review of ARG’s findings as they pertain to the applicable criteria: 1. A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal changes to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –48 HEMA No. 2022-02 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) March 3, 2022 Page 5 2 4 4 2 The Project complies with Standard No. 1. The building will continue in its present use as housing for unhoused women. Exterior distinctive materials and features, including the building’s rectangular massing and L-shaped plan, as well as the east-west wing’s low-pitched gable roof with clay tile roofing, board-formed painted concrete walls, entry porch, most steel windows, French doors, and brick chimney will be retained. The general spatial arrangement of the east-west wing (lounge/communal area at the west end with a double-loaded corridor flanked by smaller rooms) will also remain. 2. The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved. The removal of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a property shall be avoided. The Project complies with Standard No 2. The historic character of the former YWCA building will be retained and preserved under the Project. The building’s distinctive materials and features (rectangular massing, L-shaped plan, low- pitched clay tile roof, board-formed painted concrete walls, north façade entry porch and French doors, brick chimney, nearly all of its original steel windows, and its overall first floor configuration in the east-west wing) will be retained. The overall spatial configuration of the east-west wing (open lounge/community room at the west end and double-loaded corridor with smaller rooms comprising the rest of the wing) will also be preserved. While a few historic steel windows will be removed during demolition of the rear position of the building, the majority of original windows will remain, and the few being removed will not significantly impact the historic character of the building. 3. Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken. The Project complies with Standard No. 3. The Project will not add any conjectural features or elements from other historic properties. 4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved. Standard No. 4 does not apply to the Project’s impact on the subject building. Most of the prior changes to the building, including the construction of an upper- story addition at the north-south wing, re-cladding in stucco, and infill/removal of original windows and doors, occurred after 1985. Because the building’s period of significance is between 1950 and1985, none of these later alterations have acquired historic significance in their own right. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –49 HEMA No. 2022-02 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) March 3, 2022 Page 6 2 4 4 2 5. Distinctive features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property shall be preserved. The Project meets Standard No. 5. As described in detail in the discussion of Standard Nos. 1 and 2, all of the building’s most distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques/examples of craftsmanship will be preserved under the Project. 6. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. The Project complies with Standard No. 6. Any deteriorated historic features or materials (board-formed concrete walls, steel windows, wood French doors, brick chimney) identified during the building’s rehabilitation will be repaired rather than replaced to the extent feasible. If deteriorated beyond repair, features/materials will be replaced in kind. Additionally, the building’s original exterior paint palette, identified through historical paint analysis, will be restored as part of the Project. 7. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. The Project meets Standard No. 7. Any chemical or physical treatments required during the building’s rehabilitation will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible so as to minimize damage to historic fabric. 8. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken. Standard No. 8 does not apply with regard to the Project’s impact on the former YWCA building. 9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment. The Project complies with Standard No. 9. A four-story addition will replace the north-south wing at the rear of the building. While the new construction will result 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –50 HEMA No. 2022-02 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) March 3, 2022 Page 7 2 4 4 2 in partial demolition of the building, the majority of the section of the building to be removed was significantly altered in the 1980s and thus contains no historic materials, features, or spatial relationships that characterize the property. The Project will preserve the historic materials and features of the historic east-west wing, including its overall form, low-pitched clay tile roof, board-formed concrete walls, north façade porch, French doors, most steel windows. The overall design, massing, features, and materials of the new construction will be compatible with, but differentiated from the remaining historic portion of the building. The addition will reflect a simplified, Spanish Colonial Revival aesthetic, with a low-pitched gable roof covered in clay tiles, stucco-clad walls, and punched rectangular window openings. The new construction will be significantly set back from North Broadway in order to minimize its visibility and overall visual impact on the historic character of the existing building from the public right-of- way. 10.New additions and adjacent or related new construction will be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired. The Project complies with Standard No. 10. The building’s original form and integrity was compromised with the construction of an upper-story addition above the north-south wing in 1986. Thus, demolition of the north-south wing and construction of a new four-story wing in its place will not impair the overall integrity of the existing building. The one-story, rectangular form of the east-west wing, as well as most of the east-west wing’s historic materials and features, are still intact. If the new four-story addition at the rear of the building is removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic east-west wing will be unimpaired. In conclusion, staff has determined that the project complies with The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Specifically, the analysis has determined that the proposed project meets the Standards for Rehabilitation because the Project will not result in the demolition of the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA building. Although the Project proposes the removal of the existing north-south wing of the building, that wing has already been significantly altered and does not retain any distinctive historic features or spaces. The east-west wing, which has only been minimally altered and is the portion of the building most visible from the public right-of-way, will be retained and rehabilitated. Thus, the building will continue to retain all of its character-defining features. Moreover, the Project will retain the historic building’s street frontage on North Broadway. Even though the Project proposes the construction of a four-story addition to the building, the new construction will be significantly set back from North Broadway (approximately 145’) and will not block any important views of the historic resource. Most importantly, due 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –51 HEMA No. 2022-02 – Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1411 N. Broadway) March 3, 2022 Page 8 2 4 4 2 to the additive nature, if the new four-story addition at the rear of the building is removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic east-west wing 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.

Prehistoric Historic Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Mission/Spanish Colonial Revival DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND RELATED TO PERIOD ARCHITECTURE: The Mission/Spanish Colonial Revival style, as its name implies, encompasses two major subcategories. The Mission Revival vocabulary, popular between 1890 and 1920, drew its inspiration from the missions of the Southwest. Identifying features include curved parapets (or espadana); red tiled roofs and coping; low-pitched roofs, often with overhanging eaves; porch roofs supported by large, square piers; arches; and wall surfaces commonly covered in smooth stucco. The Spanish Colonial Revival flourished between 1915 and 1940, reaching its apex during the 1920s and 1930s. The movement received widespread attention after the Panama- California Exposition in San Diego in 1915, where lavish interpretations of Spanish and Mexican prototypes were showcased. Easily recognizable hallmarks of the Spanish Colonial Revival are low-pitched roofs, usually with little or no overhangs and red tile roof coverings, flat roofs surrounded by tiled parapets, and stuccoed walls. The Spanish vocabulary also includes arches, asymmetry, balconies and patios, window grilles, and wood, wrought iron, tile, or stone decorative elements. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –67 Page 2 of 4 cm\historic\templates\Broadway 1411 N 6/19/01 CONSTRUCTION HISTORY: (Construction data, alterations, and date of alterations) July 6, 1950: Construct YWCA recreation and office building.

April 21, 1986: Add second story [above existing gymnasium], remodel room adjacent to gym. RELATED FEATURES: (Other important features such as barns, sheds, fences, prominent or unusual trees, or landscape) None noted. DESCRIPTION: (Describe resource and its major elements. Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, settings, and boundaries.) A one-story, L-shaped building that extends from Broadway east to Sycamore Street, the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA exhibits the combination of Mediterranean and California Ranch style features that is typical of the post World War II Spanish Colonial Revival style. It is strongly horizontal in orientation, with a very low-pitched gable roof clad in red clay tile extending past the building to shelter a loggia. Substantial square piers support the overhang. The Broadway elevation is dominated by a large, central red brick chimney, flanked on each side by pairs of steel sash multi-paned windows, reflecting the use of the space inside as a living room. A gymnasium/auditorium is located in the eastern, Sycamore wing. The building has little architectural detailing, and the landscaping is neat and simple. Modifications include the addition of a second story above the gymnasium, requiring the enclosure of some window and door openings and application of new coating of stucco. HISTORIC HIGHLIGHTS: Declaring “the girls of today are the wives, mothers, homemakers, business women, voters, and civic leaders of tomorrow . . .let us here at home pay more attention to our own girls and young women by helping the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA have a building of its own at last,” the leadership of the YWCA kicked off its 1949-1950 building campaign. The local YWCA was an outgrowth of the movement started in 1924 by Ralph Smedley at the YMCA. Initially, the YWCA met at the YMCA, moving to rented quarters in several locations over the next quarter of a century. The organization acquired three contiguous lots on Sycamore and Broadway in the 1940s and engaged architect Harold Gimeno to design the new facility. Ground was broken in June 1950 and construction on the new $114,000 building begun by the Allison Honer Company. The new YWCA was dedicated in February 1951, with some interior work, including the auditorium, finished over the next few months. The building is currently (2001) in its 50th year of service.

Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative townsite on part of the Spanish land grant known as Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. Early growth and development was stimulated by the arrival of the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1878 and the Santa Fe Railroad in 1886. By the end of the 1880s, Santa Ana’s downtown business district was defined by five city blocks of brick commercial buildings on Fourth Street, with the heart of the city at the intersection of Fourth and Main Streets. Following its incorporation as a city in 1886, Santa Ana was recognized as one of the leading communities in the area in 1889 when it became the seat of the newly created County of Orange. From the beginning, social and fraternal organizations played an important role in the history of the town. The Masons and the Oddfellows both organized in 1875, and were followed before the close of the decade by the Good Templars Lodge and the Workmen Lodge. Dedicated to community service and fellowship, such organizations sponsored community events, often held in halls constructed for the purpose. Spurred by the growth the community experienced during the 1920s, several new associations were founded, and many older groups constructed new homes. The Santa-Tustin YWCA building, constructed in 1950, represents a third generation of club buildings to grace the community. The YWCA evolved from the YMCA movement started in 1924 by Ralph Smedley. There were many organizations within the YWCA framework, including the young businesswomen’s group; girl’s reserve programs; teen clubs; meetings for the wives of servicemen stationed in the area during and after World War II; a newcomers club; class for mothers of small children; a senior social club; and other classes and seminars. Dedicated in February of 1951, the YWCA has continued to serve the community with important programs from this building and represents a significant historic pattern in the development of Santa Ana. Exhibiting the simplicity of design characteristic of the post World War II Spanish Colonial Revival, the YWCA is also significant for architectural merit. Character-defining exterior features of the building, which should be preserved, include, but may not be limited to: roof configuration and materials; stucco cladding; brick chimney; original fenestration; loggia; and the horizontal emphasis of the building’s massing. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: The YWCA building is included in the Santa Ana Register of Historic Property, meeting Criteria 1 for distinguishing characteristics of an architectural style or period and Criteria 4 for historical significance related to association with a renowned organization. The building has been categorized as “Landmark” because it “has historical/cultural significance to the City of Santa Ana” (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). The property also appears to be eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources.

Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 1 1. Executive Summary 1.1. Introduction Architectural Resources Group (ARG) has prepared this Historic Resource Assessment (HRA) related to the proposed development project (“the Project”) at 1411 N. Broadway (APN 398-523- 04), in the City of Santa Ana. The Project Site is bound by North Broadway to the west and North Sycamore Street to the east. The Site is currently developed with a one- and two-story L-shaped building and small paved surface parking lot. Constructed in 1950, the building was originally occupied by the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA. In the late 1990s, it was adapted for use as WISEPlace, a non-profit organization that provides shelter for unhoused, unaccompanied women. There are no other buildings or structures on the Project Site. The Project includes the rehabilitation of the 1411 N. Broadway building into an approximately 49-unit housing development that will provide permanent accommodations for unhoused women. The majority of the east-west wing of the historic building (stretching approximately 123’ from the front/west façade to the rear) will be retained and rehabilitated. The rear, north-south wing of the building will be demolished and replaced with a new four-story addition containing parking at ground level and additional housing at the upper levels. Refer to Section 6.3 for a more detailed description of the Project. The purpose of this report is to fulfill the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as they relate to historical resources. CEQA states that “a project that may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource is a project that may have a significant effect on the environment.”1 An evaluation of potential impacts under CEQA includes both a determination of whether, and the extent to which, historical resources as defined by CEQA are present on and adjacent to the site and, if so, the identification of potential impacts to historical resources caused by the project. In summary, it is ARG’s professional opinion that the former YWCA building is ineligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) and the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) due to the fact that it has been altered over time in such a way that its historic integrity is significantly diminished. The building is a designated City of Santa Ana Landmark, and therefore it meets the definition of a historical resource under CEQA.2 Based on an analysis of the Project and its potential impact to historical resources, ARG finds that the Project meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation (the Standards) and will therefore not cause a substantial adverse change to the former YWCA building’s historical significance. The historical resource will retain all of its character-defining features and will continue to retain sufficient integrity to convey its significance as a local Santa Ana Landmark following the completion of the Project. It will remain eligible for listing under local designation criteria. Furthermore, as the building is not located directly adjacent to any designated or eligible 1 California Public Resources Code, Section 21084.1. 2 California Code of Regulations (CCR) Section 15064.5(a)(1-3). 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –88 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 2 historical resources, the Project will not have any indirect impacts on adjacent historical resources. Therefore, the Project will not have a significant unavoidable impact on any historical resources on or adjacent to the Project Site. 1.2. Methodology For preparation of this HRA, ARG performed the following tasks for research, documentation, and analysis: • Conducted a search in California’s Built Environment Resource Directory (BERD) and Historic Resources Inventory (HRI) for previous survey and evaluation data. • Reviewed federal and state technical bulletins, local ordinances, and other materials related to the evaluation of historical resources. • Conducted primary and secondary source research related to the history and development of the property. • Identified applicable historic contexts and themes. • Evaluated the building against eligibility criteria of the National Register and California Register. • Reviewed the Project and evaluated its potential to impact historical resources under CEQA. ARG staff consulted the following archives and repositories as part of their research for this assessment: Orange County Assessor; building permits obtained from the City of Santa Ana Planning and Building Agency; newspapers.com and California Digital Newspaper Collection databases; historic aerials accessed online through historicaerials.com and UCSB Frame Finder; and ARG’s in-house library collection. A complete list of references is included at the end of this report. In addition to primary and secondary source research, ARG conducted a site visit of the property on June 29, 2021. During the site visit, the property was photographed and notes were taken on its physical appearance and condition. 1.3. Preparer Qualifications This report was prepared by Katie Horak, Principal; Evanne St. Charles, Senior Associate; and Rosa Lisa Fry, all of whom meet the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications Standards, 36 CFR Part 61, in Architectural History.3 3 National Park Service, “Professional Qualifications Standards,” accessed October 2021, https://www.nps.gov/history/local-law/arch_stnds_9.htm. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –89 1411 N.

Broadway in the City of Santa Ana. The Site fronts on North Broadway to the east and North Sycamore Street to the west. It sits just south of East 15th Street, approximately 0.7 mile from Santa Ana City Hall (see Map 1). The streets in the surrounding area adhere to a rectilinear grid pattern, and the topography is flat. Adjacent properties are developed with primarily one- and two-story commercial, institutional, and residential buildings from the early 20th century to the decades following World War II. There are multiple residences as well as one institutional building (Fire Station Headquarters No. 1, 1322 N. Sycamore St.) within the same block as the Project Site that have been designated or identified as eligible for listing under federal, state, or local programs (see Map 2 and Section 6.6).4 The block also contains several paved surface parking lots. The Site consists of an L-shaped parcel developed with a one- to two-story institutional building and small paved surface parking lot. Map 1. Project location map (Google Maps; adapted by ARG, 2021). The Project Site is outlined in red. 4 Fire Station Headquarters No. 1 is also listed in the National Register. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –90 1411 N.

Architectural Description Exterior Constructed in 1950, the former YWCA building is a modest, pared down example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style. It is one to two stories in height and L-shaped in plan with a one-story wing running east-west along the south property line and fronting on North Broadway, and a two-story wing extending north-south along the east/rear property line, on North Sycamore Street. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –91 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 5 The one-story, east-west wing of the building historically and currently holds a lobby, lounge, and offices. The wing is capped with a front-facing gable roof covered with clay tile roofing. At the west gable end, the roofline extends further north to form a porch that shelters the building’s primary entrance on the north façade. The walls of this wing are painted board-formed concrete, and fenestration comprises multi-light steel windows within “punched” openings. The primary entrance is located at the west end of the north façade and consists of a partial- width porch accessing three sets of multi-light wood French doors (one with sidelights). The doors are sheltered by the main roofline, which extends beyond the north façade and is supported by rectangular pillars. To the east of the north façade entrance are two additional sets of multi-light wood French doors (one with sidelights), three slab doors, and paired and grouped multi-light steel windows. The west façade faces North Broadway and is fronted by a non-historic raised planter. An exterior brick chimney is located at the center of the façade and is flanked by two sets of paired multi- light steel casement windows topped with multi-light fixed sashes. The south façade fronts the adjacent property. It is lined with paired multi-light steel windows at its west end and aluminum sliding replacement windows at the east end. The east end of the one-story, east-west wing of the building abuts the two-story, north-south wing. The two-story, north-south wing historically and currently holds a gymnasium at the first floor. In 1986, the wing was significantly altered with the construction of a second-story addition that comprises housing units. The addition necessitated the enclosure of some original window and door openings, and stucco was applied over the wing’s painted board-formed concrete exterior walls. The north-south wing is capped with a gable roof covered in clay tile roofing; parapet walls project above the roofline and bound the gable ends. The west roof plane is interrupted by a central open trellis structure marking the location of a second-story patio. Historic grouped multi- light steel windows are still present at the first story of the north and south façades, and metal sliding windows line the second story of the south and east façades. Non-original paired slab doors provide access to the gym from the north façade, and non-historic recessed fully glazed metal doors access the building from the south façade, off North Sycamore Street. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –92 1411 N.

Chronology of Development and Use Following is a chronology of development and use of the property at 1411 N. Broadway. Source materials include City of Santa Ana Planning and Building Agency building permits, historic newspaper articles, and aerial photographs. 1950 Following a 1949 building campaign, the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA recreation and office building was constructed at 1411 N. Broadway. The property was owned by the YWCA, and the contractor was Allison Honer.5 Harold Gimeno was the architect.6 1951 The gymnasium was finished by Honer.7 1952 Signs were added to the property (not extant).8 1963 Roof trusses were repaired by Miller Iron Works.9 The YWCA chapter changed the name of their organization to the Santa Ana-South Orange County YWCA to address growing membership outside of the city.10 1975 A new locker and shower room was built by Pyramid Construction.11 1985 The Santa Ana YWCA’s mission narrowed in the mid-1980s when the chapter began focusing more specifically on serving unhoused women. In order to support women experiencing homelessness, a ‘hotel’ addition was planned for the building.12 1986 The second-story ‘hotel’ addition was constructed, and a room adjacent to the gym was remodeled. Some window/door openings were infilled and exterior walls covered in stucco.13 1998 Interior renovations were carried out.14 1999 In 1999 the YWCA chapter reorganized as a new non-profit, WISEPlace, and disaffiliated from the National YWCA.15 2012 The one-story wing was re-roofed with in-kind clay tiles.16 5 City of Santa Ana Planning and Building Agency, Permit No. 4214. 6 “Plans for YWCA Structure at Santa Ana Announced,” Los Angeles Times, January 15, 1950. 7 City of Santa Ana Planning and Building Agency, Permit No. 898. 8 City of Santa Ana Planning and Building Agency, Permit No. 2657. 9 City of Santa Ana Planning and Building Agency, Permit No. 2902. 10 “Santa Ana YWCA Will Change Name,” Los Angeles Times, November 20, 1963. 11 City of Santa Ana Planning and Building Agency, Permit No. 18148. 12 Benjamin Epstein, “A New-Fashioned ‘Roof Raising’ for Homeless Women,” Los Angeles Times, May 3, 1985; Karen A.

Institutional Development in Santa Ana Prior to the Euro-American occupation of California, the Acjachemen (commonly known as the Juaneño) and Tongva (commonly known as the Gabrieleno) peoples inhabited the area that would become known as the City of Santa Ana.17 In the 1770s, present-day Santa Ana and the surrounding region were colonized by Spanish missionaries, leading to the enslavement and demise of the region’s native inhabitants. In 1810, the King of Spain granted Spanish soldier José Antonio Yorba the title to the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana land grant, comprising 62,516 acres which today contain the communities of Orange, Tustin, Santa Ana, Olive, El Modena, Costa Mesa, and part of Newport Beach.18 William Henry Spurgeon is credited with founding the City of Santa Ana in 1869 upon land that had previously been a portion of the expansive Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. Spurgeon’s intent was to create a town and open a store. After buying 74.2 acres of the former Spanish land grant, he had a 24-block townsite plotted in 1870. Following the trend of late 19th-century Southern California city-building, Santa Ana was actualized as affordable train fares and attractive weather lured people from across the country in the late 1800s. In addition to running his general store, Spurgeon worked on key infrastructural plans for the nascent community, constructing the first road linking Santa Ana to Anaheim (and therefore Los Angeles). In 1877, Spurgeon and other Santa Ana boosters successfully campaigned for the Southern Pacific Railroad to build a rail line extension from Anaheim and a depot in Santa Ana. Ten years later, the California Central Railway connected San Diego and Los Angeles via Santa Ana, further contributing to the city’s growth. During the same period, the Santa Ana, Orange, and Tustin Street Railway deepened local connections with a horse-drawn streetcar line.19 Remaining active in the institutional development of his community for the rest of his life, William Spurgeon became the city postmaster in 1870 and the first mayor when the booming town of 2,000 people incorporated in 1886. When Orange County was formed in 1889, bustling Santa Ana was selected as the county seat with Spurgeon elected chairman to the County Board of Supervisors. Spurgeon was also responsible for Santa Ana’s water supply, building artesian wells for the city in 1889.20 Agriculture was the economic backbone of budding Orange County, however in Santa Ana commercial development also progressed, growing from five city blocks of brick businesses centered on 4th and Main Streets in the 1880s, to a large civic and commercial downtown by the 1920s. Other early development included the establishment of a school room in 1870 and the 17 Native Land Digital, accessed December 2021, https://native-land.ca/. 18 Carol H.

Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 12 formation of the Santa Ana School District in 1888.21 Religious institutions, which first convened in local residences, were launched in 1870 with the establishment of the Methodist-Episcopal Church. A first generation of community organizations and social clubs, often segregated by gender, were inaugurated during the early days of Santa Ana. Associations specifically for women included a chapter of the Ebell Society, an organization supporting women’s education and philanthropic work, and the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union, which successfully rallied against local bars, forcing the closure of all saloons in the city in 1903.22 Fraternal organizations dedicated to community service included the Masons, the Oddfellows, the Good Templars Lodge, and the Workman’s Lodge, all initiated in Santa Ana before the end of the 19th century.23 These groups often met in purpose-built halls to celebrate events and promote community engagement. The next iteration of community social clubs was born in the early 20th century, and the construction of associated clubhouses continued into the 1920s. A branch of the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) was first organized in Santa Ana in 1907, though a purpose-built headquarters facility, containing a gym, patio, swimming pool, dormitories, and meeting rooms, was not constructed until 1923.24 The initiator of the YMCA building campaign was Ralph Smedley, secretary of the organization and later founder of Toastmasters International, an oratory club. The YMCA building—designed by noted Santa Ana architect Fredrick Eley and listed in the National Register—served countless other organizations, including the emergent Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) in Santa Ana, though the two organizations have always been independent entities. The Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA was established shortly after the completion of the YMCA facility in 1924, and the women’s group was granted use of the building on a weekly basis.25 The post-World War II period represented the third era of institutional social club-building as Santa Ana’s population grew dramatically after 1945. The swelling population, substantially composed of young servicemen and their families, meant an increase in membership for many organizations, including the veterans’ clubs, the YMCA, and the YWCA. The latter association, which had been operating out of rented facilities for 26 years, commenced a building campaign in 1949 to develop its own independent facility at 1411 N. Broadway. 3.2. Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) The Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA was a local affiliate of the YWCA, an organization originally founded to empower young women during the social upheaval of the industrial revolution. The earliest established YWCA represented the unification of two disparate entities in mid-19th century London: a Prayer Union begun by Emma Robarts and a Christian home for traveling nurses and 21 “District History,” Santa Ana Public Schools Foundation, accessed October 2021, http://santaanapublicschoolsfoundation.org/district-history/. 22 Bitetti, 26. 23 Leslie Heumann, YMCA 203-205 West Civic Center Drive, “Update to the Santa Ana Historic Survey, Final Resources Inventory: Downtown,” recorded May 2001. 24 Ibid. 25 “Santa Ana Women to Have ‘Y’ Building Use Mondays,” Santa Ana Daily Register, March 11, 1924. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –99 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 13 other young women run by Mary Jane Kinnaird.26 Entirely independent of the YMCA, though originally similar in mission statement, early branches of the YWCA focused on the spiritual, physical, and mental well-being of young women relocating from rural to urban environs. In New York City in 1858, the Ladies Christian Association became the first affiliate of the YWCA in the United States. The organization opened a boarding house in 1860 and an employment bureau in 1872 by which point they, and other American women’s organizations with similar aims, had adopted the name YWCA and had written a constitution. In 1894 the World YWCA was established by student associations in the United States, England, Sweden, and Norway, and by 1900, YWCA branches specifically for Black and Native American women had opened in the United States. The YWCA of the USA was formally incorporated in New York City in 1907, at which point a National Board was created. Turn-of-the-century initiatives included short-term urban housing, bilingual instruction to help immigrant women, lobbying for minimum wage and labor laws, a commission on sex education, establishing day care centers, and supporting a professional female workforce for the U.S. Armed Forces during World War I.27 Although initially focused on helping young women through lifestyle changes arising from industrialization, by the 1920s this directive was no longer the YWCA’s main priority. Urban concerns such as unsanitary working conditions, long uninterrupted hours, and low wages continued to be addressed by the organization; however, fighting racial discrimination grew to be one of the organization’s central issues, particularly in the United States. Initially an all-white— later segregated—organization reflecting early 20th century mores, the YWCA eventually pioneered equity practices including desegregation, interracial conferences, and exposing patterns of discrimination in legislation and institutional practices. The association’s earliest racially conscious efforts included charitable support for formerly enslaved women and racially inclusive conferences starting in 1915.28 The Student Association of the YWCA and Black chapters of the organization promoted anti-lynching sentiment in the 1930s, and the 1934 YWCA Convention declared that American associations should support federal efforts toward interracial cooperation. During World War II, the YWCA extended its services to interned Japanese Americans in concentration camps and offered resettlement aid after the war ended. The YWCA Interracial Charter published in 1946 was the result of decades of progressive thought and stated, “wherever there is injustice on the basis of race, whether in the community, the nation, or the world, our protest must be clear and our labor for its removal vigorous and steady.”29 By 1949 the National Convention pledged that the YWCA would work for the integration and full participation of minority groups in all phases of community life. Originally founded as a faith-based organization for Protestant women, the YWCA’s religious affiliation has expanded since its inception. By the 1960s the YWCA declared itself “Christian but 26 “YWCA is on a Mission,” YWCA USA, 2013, accessed October 2021, https://www.ywca.org/about/history/. 27 “YWCA is on a Mission.” 28 Barbara J.

In 2015 the organization’s corporate name was officially changed from “Young Women’s Christian Association of the United States of America, Inc.” to “YWCA USA, Inc.” further highlighting religious inclusivity. At its core the YWCA has always prioritized and promoted female empowerment. Advocacy issues have included childcare programming enabling women to join the workforce, housing for victims of domestic violence and women in transition, and sexual health education. Economic empowerment, financial literacy, scholarship programs, and technology training have also been major recent drives within the organization. In 2021 the YWCA has over 200 local associations within the United States serving 2 million individuals across the country.30 3.3. Development of the Subject Property The Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA was established in 1924 and officially became a chapter of the National YWCA in 1925. Originally holding weekly meetings at the Santa Ana YMCA building (205 W. Civic Center Drive), the local YWCA chapter relocated to the Masonic building on 5th and Sycamore streets in 1925. From its founding, the organization offered myriad classes and recreation activities, hosted summer camps and networking events, and provided a place for socialization and refuge for women in the community.31 A 1942 article in the Santa Ana Register describes the importance the of the local chapter to the city’s female residents: Scores of girls and young women coming to Santa Ana to fill their role as typists, stenographers, etc., go immediately to the YWCA to take advantage of the organization’s rooms registry service. Other young women seek the benefits of the YW lounge, library and kitchen. Counseling, too, is a part of the service rendered…[and] many organizations hold their meetings [in the YW rooms].32 By the early 1940s, the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA had an active membership of several hundred.33 Santa Ana experienced a population boom in the postwar era, resulting in a rise in membership of its community organizations, including the YWCA. After operating out of five different rented facilities for 26 years, the local chapter saw the need for new, expanded facilities to accommodate its influx of members, and a building fund campaign commenced in 1949. Constructed in 1950 and dedicated in February 1951, 1411 N. Broadway was the Santa Ana YWCA’s first purpose-built headquarters. Designed by local architect Harold Gimeno, the new facility included a gymnasium, kitchen, nursery, lobby, meeting rooms, and offices.34 30 “In Your Community,” YWCA USA, accessed October 2021, https://www.ywca.org/what-we-do/in-your-community/. 31 “Secretary is Optimistic for Future of Y.W.C.A.,” Santa Ana Register, August 6, 1925; “New Teachers Join Staff of Y.W.C.A.

Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 15 Throughout the 1950s, the Santa Ana YWCA continued to offer summer programs and adult classes and hosted various community events in its new building.35 In 1963 the chapter officially changed their name to the Santa Ana-South Orange County YWCA to address growing membership outside of the city. The building continued to provide the same programming as it had since its establishment.36 The Santa Ana YWCA’s mission narrowed in the mid-1980s when the chapter began focusing more specifically on serving unhoused women. In order to support women experiencing homelessness in Santa Ana, a ‘hotel’ addition was planned for the 1411 N. Broadway building in 1985. This short-term housing facility comprised a tall second-floor addition at the rear of the 1950 building and was intended to address the hundreds of homeless women camping outside of the YWCA at that time.37 The construction of 20 double-occupancy rooms over the original gymnasium was completed in 1986, and the hotel opened in 1987. In 1999 the local YWCA reorganized as a new non-profit, WISEPlace, and disaffiliated from the National YWCA. WISEPlace (Women Inspired, Supported, and Empowered) is a transitional living center serving the needs of unaccompanied homeless women in Orange County. The new organization severed ties with the YWCA in order to focus on their mission statement: “To lead the effort of ending homelessness for unaccompanied women through housing solutions and empowering wrap-around services that provide a path toward personal self-reliance.”38 When it opened, WISEPlace offered meals and shelter for 30 women at a time and provided assistance and guidance enabling women to transition to independent living.39 In 2019 WISEPlace announced a partnership with Jamboree Housing Corporation with plans to modernize the building at 1411 N. Broadway and construct permanent supportive housing at the facility. WISEPlace was chosen as a California 2021 Nonprofit of the Year by Assemblymember Tom Daly. 40 3.4. Spanish Colonial Revival Architecture The subject property is a late and modest example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style applied to an institutional building in Santa Ana. Spanish Colonial Revival architecture gained widespread popularity throughout Southern California after the 1915 Panama-California Exposition in San Diego. The exposition’s buildings were designed by architect Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue, who wished to go beyond the popular Mission architectural interpretations of the state’s colonial past and highlight the richness of Spanish precedents found throughout Latin America. The exposition prompted other designers to look directly to Spain for architectural inspiration.

Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 16 Colonial Revival style was an attempt to create a “native” California architectural style that drew upon and romanticized the state’s colonial past. The popularity of the Spanish Colonial Revival style coincided with Southern California’s population boom of the 1920s. The versatility of the architectural idiom, allowing for builders and architects to construct buildings as simple or as lavish as money would permit, helped to further spread its popularity throughout the region. The style’s adaptability also lent its application to a variety of building types, including single- and multi-family residences, commercial properties, and institutional buildings. Spanish Colonial Revival architecture often borrowed from other styles such as Churrigueresque, Gothic Revival, Moorish Revival, or Art Deco. The style is characterized by its complex building forms, stucco-clad wall surfaces, and clay tile roofs. Spanish Colonial Revival architecture remained popular through the 1930s, with later versions simpler in form and ornamentation. A prevalent Period Revival idiom in Santa Ana, the style once dominated commercial architecture in the Downtown Santa Ana Historic District and was one of the most popular residential architectural styles during the 1920s and ‘30s.41 There are several institutional buildings in the city that are also designed in the style, including the Ebell Clubhouse (1924, listed in the National Register), the Santa Ana YMCA building (1924, listed in the National Register), and the Santa Ana Fire Station Headquarters No. 1 (1929, listed in the National Register). Character-defining features of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture include: • Asymmetrical or rectangular floor plan • Horizontal massing, sometimes with towers used as vertical accents • Smooth or textured stucco cladding • Low-pitched clay tile roofs or roof trim • Arched openings including windows, doorways, or arcades • Patios, courtyards, covered porches, loggias and/or balconies • Spare detailing making use of wrought iron, wood, terra cotta, polychromatic tile • Cast iron or wood grilles over windows and other wall openings • Clay tile or pipe attic vents 3.5. Harold Gimeno, A.I.A. According to historic Los Angeles Times newspaper articles, architect Harold Gimeno designed the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA.42 Harold Gimeno A.I.A. (1896-1980) was an architect best known for his early work in Oklahoma, though he also headed a successful California practice later in his life. Gimeno was born in New York and grew up in Norman, Oklahoma. He attended the University of Oklahoma as an undergraduate studying mathematics and went on to get his masters from Harvard University’s Graduate School of Architecture.43 Upon completing his education, Gimeno returned to Norman where he was employed as professor of architecture at the University of 41 Harold M. Thomas, “Downtown Santa Ana Historic District National Register of Historic Places Nomination,” August 1983. 42 “Plans for YWCA Structure at Santa Ana Announced.” 43 Jim Gabbert, “Buildings by Harold Gimeno,” Preservation Oklahoma News, April 2016, accessed October 2020, https://www.okhistory.org/shpo/pok/POKApr2006.pdf. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –103 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 17 Oklahoma. Influenced by his Spanish heritage, Gimeno’s best known designs are in the Spanish Renaissance and Spanish Colonial Revival styles, including the Sooner Theater (1929) in Norman, which is listed in the National Register. The theater features original artwork by Patricio Gimeno, Harold’s father, as does the Patricio Gimeno House (1929), which Harold designed for his parents.44 By the time Gimeno relocated to Southern California and started his own firm in the 1940s, the architect had worked in a variety of styles and began to shift his focus to institutional modernism, though he continued to design late Period Revival buildings throughout his career. In addition to the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA (1950), Gimeno’s Orange County commissions include the Orange YMCA (1949)45, an addition to the Lutheran Convalescent Hospital (1959), the main rehabilitation center for the Orange County Society for Crippled Children and Adults (1965), multiple buildings at Chapman College and Santa Ana College, and several elementary and secondary school buildings. 3.6. Allison Honer, Contractor A prolific Orange County builder and developer, Allison Honer was the contractor for the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA. Born in New York in 1897, Allison Christopher Honer was a long-time resident of Santa Ana. Largely unknown outside of Southern California, Honer’s best known constructions are all located in Santa Ana: the Floral Park residential subdivision (1920s), Old Santa Ana City Hall (1935, a Santa Ana Landmark), and Honer Plaza (1960), a Santa Ana shopping center named after the contractor.46 44 Ibid. 45 Located at 146 N. Grand Street, the Spanish Colonial Revival building is currently being rehabilitated as an events space known as the Grand Gimeno. 46 Honer Plaza was remodeled in 1988 and is now known as Bristol Marketplace; Leslie J.

Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 18 4. Regulatory Framework 4.1 Definition of Historical Resources Pursuant to Section 15064.5 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR), Title 14, Chapter 3, the following are considered historical resources for the purposes of CEQA: 1. A resource listed in, or determined to be eligible by the State Historical Resources Commission, for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register). 2. A resource included in a local register of historical resources, as defined in Section 5020.1(k) of the California Public Resources Code (PRC), or identified as significant in an historical resource survey meeting the requirements in Section 5024.1(g) of the PRC, shall be presumed to be historically or culturally significant. 3. Any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record, or manuscript which a lead agency determines to be historically significant or significant in the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educational, social, political, military, or cultural annals of California may be considered to be an historical resource, provided the lead agency's determination is supported by substantial evidence in light of the whole record. Generally, a resource shall be considered by the lead agency to be "historically significant" if the resource meets the criteria for listing in the California Register (PRC SS5024.1; Title 14 CCR, Section 4852). 4.2. Federal, State, and Local Evaluation Criteria National Register of Historic Places The National Register of Historic Places (National Register) is the nation’s master inventory of known historic resources. Created under the auspices of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Register is administered by the National Park Service (NPS) and includes listings of buildings, structures, sites, objects, and districts that possess historic, architectural, engineering, archaeological, or cultural significance at the national, state, or local level. As described in National Register Bulletin 15: How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, in order to be eligible for the National Register, a resource must both: (1) be significant, and (2) retain sufficient integrity to convey its significance. Significance is assessed by evaluating a resource against established criteria for eligibility. A resource is considered significant if it satisfies any one of the following four National Register criteria: 47 A. Associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history; 47 Some resources may meet multiple criteria, though only one needs to be satisfied for National Register eligibility. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –105 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 19 B. Associated with the lives of significant persons in our past; C. Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represents the work of a master, or that possesses high artistic values, or that represents a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction; D. Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. Once significance has been established, it must then be demonstrated that a resource retains enough of its physical and associative qualities – or integrity – to convey the reason(s) for its significance. Integrity is best described as a resource’s “authenticity” as expressed through its physical features and extant characteristics. Whether a resource retains sufficient integrity for listing is determined by evaluating the seven aspects of integrity defined by the NPS: 1. Location (the place where the historic property was constructed or the place where the historic event occurred); 2. Setting (the physical environment of a historic property); 3. Design (the combination of elements that create the form, plan, space, structure, and style of a property); 4. Materials (the physical elements that were combined or deposited during a particular period of time and in a particular manner or configuration to form a historic property); 5. Workmanship (the physical evidence of the crafts of a particular culture or people during any given period in history or prehistory); 6. Feeling (a property’s expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular period of time); 7. Association (the direct link between an important historic event/person and a historic property). Integrity is evaluated by weighing all seven of these aspects together and is ultimately a “yes or no” determination – that is, a resource either retains sufficient integrity or it does not.48 Some aspects of integrity may be weighed more heavily than others depending on the type of resource being evaluated and the reason(s) for its significance. Since integrity depends on a resource’s placement within a historic context, integrity can be assessed only after it has been established that the resource is significant, and under which criteria. Generally, a resource must be at least 50 years of age to be eligible for listing in the National Register. Exceptions are made if it can be demonstrated that a resource less than 50 years old is (1) of exceptional importance, or (2) is an integral component of a historic district that is eligible for the National Register. 48 Derived from NRB 15, Section VIII: “How to Evaluate the Integrity of a Property.” 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –106 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 20 California Register of Historical Resources The California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) is the authoritative guide to the state’s significant historical and archeological resources. In 1992, the California legislature established the California Register “to be used by state and local agencies, private groups, and citizens to identify the state’s historical resources and to indicate what properties are to be protected, to the extent prudent and feasible, from substantial adverse change.”49 The California Register program encourages public recognition and protection of resources of architectural, historical, archaeological, and cultural significance; identifies historical resources for state and local planning purposes; determines eligibility for historic preservation grant funding; and affords certain protections under CEQA. All resources listed in or formally determined eligible for the National Register are automatically listed in the California Register. In addition, properties designated under municipal or county ordinances, or through local historic resources surveys, are eligible for listing in the California Register. The structure of the California Register program is similar to that of the National Register, but places its emphasis on resources that have contributed specifically to the development of California. To be eligible for the California Register, a resource must first be deemed significant at the local, state, or national level under one of the following four criteria, which are modeled after the National Register criteria listed above: 1. It is associated with events or patterns of events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history, or the cultural heritage of California or the United States; or 2. It is associated with the lives of persons important to local, California, or national history; or 3. It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic values; or 4. It has yielded, or has the potential to yield, information important to the prehistory or history of the local area state or the nation.50 Like the National Register, the California Register also requires that resources retain sufficient integrity to be eligible for listing. A resource’s integrity is assessed using the same seven aspects of integrity used for the National Register. However, since integrity thresholds associated with the California Register are generally less rigid than those associated with the National Register, it is possible that a resource may lack the integrity required for the National Register but still be eligible for listing in the California Register. 49 California Public Resource (CPR) Code, Section 5024.1 (a). 50 California Public Resources Code SS5024.1, Title 14 CCR, Section 4852. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –107 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 21 There is no prescribed age limit for listing in the California Register, although California Register guidelines state that “sufficient time must have passed to obtain a scholarly perspective on the events or individuals associated with the resource.”51 Resources may be nominated directly to the California Register. They are also automatically listed in the California Register if they are listed in or have been officially determined eligible for the National Register. State Historic Landmarks #770 and forward are also automatically listed in the California Register.52 Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties In 1998, the City of Santa Ana adopted Chapter 30 (Places of Historical and Architectural Significance) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, establishing the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. Per Chapter 30, Section 30-2 of the Municipal Code, a building, structure, object, or site may be listed in the Santa Ana Register if the resource is 50 or more years old (or of exceptional importance) and meets one or more of the following criteria: 1. Buildings, structures or objects with distinguishing characteristics of an architectural style or period, that exemplify a particular architectural style or design features; 2. Works of notable architects, builders, or designers whose style influenced architectural development; 3. Rare buildings, structures, or objects or original designs; 4. Buildings, structures, objects or sites of historical significance which include places: a. Where important events occurred; b. Associated with famous people, original settlers, renowned organizations and businesses; c. Which were originally present when the city was founded; or d. That served as important centers for political, social, economic, or cultural activity. 5. Sites of archaeological importance; 51 California Office of Historic Preservation, Technical Assistance Series #6: California Register and National Register: A Comparison (Sacramento, CA: California Department of Parks and Recreation, 2001), 3. According to the Instructions for Recording Historical Resources (Office of Historic Preservation, March 1995), “Any physical evidence of human activities over 45 years old may be recorded for purposes of inclusion in the OHP’s filing system. Documentation of resources less than 45 years old may also be filed if those resources have been formally evaluated, regardless of the outcome of the evaluation.” This 45-year threshold is intended to guide the recordation of potential historical resources for local planning purposes, and is not directly related to an age threshold for eligibility against California Register criteria. 52 California Department of Parks and Recreation, Office of Historic Preservation, Technical Assistance Series #5: California Register of Historical Resources, The Listing Process (Sacramento, CA: California Department of Parks and Recreation, n.d.), 1. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –108 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 22 6. Buildings or structures that were connected with a business or use which was once common, but is now rare. Chapter 30 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code does not include language about integrity thresholds. When evaluating historical resources in cities where the municipal code does not provide guidance for assessing integrity, in accordance with best professional practices it is customary to use the National Register seven aspects of integrity to assess whether or not a resource retains sufficient integrity to convey its significance at the local level. For local eligibility, it is ARG’s experience that cities typically consider integrity in determining whether a historical resource qualifies as a local landmark, but practices greater flexibility when evaluating integrity for local designation than is the case for determining state or federal eligibility. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –109 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 23 5. Evaluation of Historical Significance 5.1. Previous Evaluations and Studies The building at 1411 N. Broadway (the Project Site) was listed as City of Santa Ana Landmark No. 63 following an intensive-level survey evaluation by Leslie Heumann of Science Applications International Corporation in 2001. Heumann found the building eligible for listing as a local landmark under Santa Ana Criterion 1 for embodying the “distinguishing characteristics” of the Spanish Colonial Revival style and under Santa Ana Criterion 4 for its association with the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA, an important social and cultural institution in the community. The evaluation also notes that the building appeared eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources. The building is not listed in the California Built Environment Resource Directory (BERD) or Historic Resources Inventory (HRI), and it is not designated under federal (National Register) or state (California Register) programs. 5.2. Evaluation of Significance Because 1411 N. Broadway is designated a City of Santa Ana Landmark, ARG did not re-evaluate the building for local eligibility. However, ARG concurs that the building is significant under local registration criteria. The building’s previous evaluation by Leslie Heumann/Science Applications International Corporation (2001), which resulted in its designation as a Santa Ana Landmark, did not provide a period of significance. For the purposes of this report, ARG recommends a period of significance of 1950-1985, commencing with the year the building was constructed as the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA and culminating the year the local organization’s mission narrowed to focus on housing, resulting in changes to the building’s program and appearance due to major alterations, particularly at the rear north-south wing. It is ARG’s professional opinion that the building is not eligible for listing in the National Register or California Register due to a lack of historic integrity. Following is an evaluation of the building against federal and state eligibility criteria as well as an assessment of historic integrity. National Register and California Register National and California Register Criteria A/1: associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of history. The subject building is associated with postwar institutional development patterns in the City of Santa Ana. Specifically, the building is associated with the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA, an important social and cultural institution in the city. Established in 1924, the local YWCA chapter provided essential services (classes, recreational activities, networking events, benefits, etc.) to women in Santa Ana and surrounding communities. The postwar era represented a significant period of institutional social club-building in the city, including for the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA. With its rise 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –110 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 24 in membership following World War II, the YWCA embarked on a building fund campaign in 1949 for its first purpose-built headquarters. Constructed in 1950 and dedicated in February 1951, the 1411 N. Broadway facility included a gymnasium, kitchen, nursery, lobby, meeting rooms, and offices. Though no longer associated with the National YWCA, the building’s current occupant, WISEPlace, continues to serve the local community through providing shelter for unhoused women. Although 1411 N. Broadway is associated with Santa Ana’s postwar institutional development patterns, and more specifically, the local chapter of the YWCA, the building has undergone major changes since its construction, most notably a large upper-story addition atop the building’s north-south wing in the mid-1980s and the infill of some windows and doors. As discussed in greater detail in Section 5.3: Evaluation of Integrity, these alterations have diminished the building’s integrity in such a way that it does not appear eligible for listing in the National Register or California Register. National and California Register Criteria B/2: associated with the lives of persons significant in our past. Although many individuals associated with the Santa Ana-Tustin YWCA and later iterations of the organization contributed to the community, none of the individuals associated with the local chapter appear significant to the history of the city, state, or nation in a way that is directly tied to the building. Therefore, the building is not eligible under National/California Register Criteria B/2. National and California Register Criteria C/3: embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represents the work of a master, or that possesses high artistic values, or that represents a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction. The subject property was designed in the Spanish Colonial Revival style. While the building retains some elements of the style, including an asymmetrical floor plan, horizontal massing, and a low- pitched roof with clay tile roofing, it represents a rather modest, late interpretation of the architectural idiom and does not possess high artistic values. It does not embody the distinctive characteristics of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture seen in other institutional examples of the style in Santa Ana, including the Ebell Clubhouse, the YMCA building, and Santa Ana Fire Station Headquarters No. 1. Though the building was designed and constructed by an architect (Harold Gimeno) and builder (Allison Honer) who may be considered locally important, given its modest character, the building does not appear to be a particularly significant or representative example of their body of work. Due to its modest appearance, as well as the significant changes made to its original design in the 1980s, the building is not eligible for listing under National/California Register Criteria C/3. National and California Register Criteria D/4: has yielded or may likely yield information important in prehistory or history. Because a comprehensive archaeological assessment was not included in the scope of this report, the subject property’s potential to yield information important in prehistory or history is currently unknown. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –111 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 25 5.3. Evaluation of Integrity In order for a property to be eligible for listing in the National and California Registers, it must retain sufficient integrity to convey its historic significance. As previously discussed in its evaluation of significance, the former YWCA building does not retain sufficient integrity to be eligible for listing in the National or California Registers under any criteria. Per the discussion in Section 4.2: Federal, State, and Local Evaluation Criteria, the City of Santa Ana Municipal Code does not include language regarding integrity thresholds, but in practice, cities typically consider integrity in determining whether a historic resource qualifies as a landmark and often show greater flexibility when evaluating integrity for local designation than is the case for determining state or federal eligibility. Set forth below is an evaluation of the 1411 N. Broadway building under the seven aspects of integrity established as part of the National Register process. Location The building has not been moved from its original location, and therefore retains this aspect of integrity. Design The building’s design has been altered since its construction in 1950. In 1986, a large second- story addition was constructed over the original north-south gymnasium wing at the rear of the building. The addition necessitated the infill of some window and door openings, and the wing’s exterior walls were covered in stucco. Additional, minor alterations include the replacement of some windows and doors throughout the building. While the one-story, east-west wing is still largely intact and continues to convey its original character and appearance, the large upper- story addition at the rear gymnasium wing and subsequent alterations listed above have changed the building’s original form, massing, and style such that its integrity of design has been compromised. Setting The building was historically and is currently surrounded by primarily one- and two-story commercial, institutional, and residential buildings from the early 20th century to the decades following World War II. As its setting has not changed significantly since its construction, the building retains this aspect of integrity. Materials The building has lost some original materials, including some windows, doors, and interior finishes. In addition, new materials, such as stucco cladding and aluminum sliding windows, have been added to the building. However, the majority of material alterations are confined to the north-south wing, and most of the original materials comprising the east-wing wing (steel windows, wood French doors, board-formed concrete walls) still remain. For these reasons, the building’s integrity of materials, while diminished, has not been altogether lost. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –112 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 26 Workmanship Alterations to the building in the 1980s have affected its ability to convey the typical workmanship of its period. In particular, the construction of a large upper-story addition, re- cladding in stucco, and infill of original steel windows and removal of original doors at the north- south wing have partially eroded the physical evidence of the building’s 1950s craftsmanship. However, some evidence of the building’s original craftsmanship, including its board-formed concrete walls, steel windows in punched window openings, and multi-light wood doors, are still present at the east-west wing. Thus, although the building’s integrity of workmanship has been compromised, it has not been completely lost. Feeling A historic property’s integrity of feeling results from the presence of physical features that, taken together, enhance the property’s historic character. The building sits in its original location and retains its original setting. While the building has experienced changes to its design and materials, most alterations are confined to the rear north-south wing, and the building largely retains its original appearance from its primary street frontage on North Broadway. Thus, although its original character and appearance as a 1950s community building has been somewhat compromised by alterations in the 1980s, its integrity of feeling has not been altogether lost. Association The building has long been a significant fixture of the neighborhood, and while its integrity of design, materials, and feeling have been somewhat diminished by alterations in the 1980s, they have not been completely lost. Its original character and appearance as viewed from its primary street frontage on North Broadway remain mostly intact. Furthermore, as it continues to serve the community through its support of unhoused women, the building retains its association with important social and cultural institutions in the city. In summary, the building retains integrity of location, setting, and association. Its integrity of design, materials, workmanship, and feeling have been somewhat compromised by alterations made to the building in the 1980s. Due to the alterations noted above, the building’s overall integrity has been diminished to the extent that it does not retain sufficient integrity for listing in the National or California Register. However, it is ARG’s professional opinion that the building retains sufficient integrity to convey its significance under local landmark criteria. As previously described, local municipalities often require less integrity for local designation than for listing in the National or California Register. Applying this more lenient standard, while the 1411 N. Broadway building has experienced some alterations that have diminished its integrity of design, materials, workmanship, and feeling, a sufficient degree of those aspects of integrity remains to convey the building’s significance as a post-World War II YWCA building. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –113 1411 N.

Summary of Historical Resource Findings Pursuant to Section 15064.5(a)(2) of the State CEQA Guidelines (CEQA Guidelines), the term "historical resource" includes a resource listed in a local register of historical resources or identified as significant in a historical resources survey meeting the requirements in Section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code (PRC). As 1411 N. Broadway is listed in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties, it satisfies the definition of a historical resource as enumerated by the CEQA Guidelines. There are no other historical resources on the Project Site. 6.2. Significance Threshold According to California CEQA Guidelines, a project has the potential to impact a historical resource when the project involves a “substantial adverse change” in the resource’s significance. Substantial adverse change is defined as “physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the resource or its immediate surroundings such that the significance of an historical resource would be materially impaired.”53 The significance of an historical resource is materially impaired when a project: a) Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of an historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its inclusion in, or eligibility for, the California Register of Historical Resources; or b) Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics that account for its inclusion in a local register of historical resources pursuant to Section 5020.1(k) of the Public Resources Code or its identification in an historical resources survey meeting the requirements of Section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code, unless the public agency reviewing the effects of the project by a preponderance of evidence that the resource is not historically or culturally significant; or c) Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of a historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its eligibility for inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources as determined by a lead agency for the purposes of CEQA.54 A project that has been determined to conform with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings (the Standards) shall generally be considered to be a project that will not cause a significant impact on a historical resource (Title 14 CCR, Section 15064.5(b)(3). 53 CEQA Guidelines, Section 15064.5. 54 Ibid. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –115 1411 N.

Broadway building into an approximately 49-unit housing development that will provide permanent accommodations for unhoused, unaccompanied women. The majority of the one-story east-west wing of the historic building (stretching roughly 123’ from the front/west façade to the rear) will be rehabilitated for use as offices, a training center, community room, and three residential studio units. Construction of new program will necessitate partial interior demolition on the wing; however, the overall floor plan of the wing (community room at the west end and double-loaded corridor flanked by smaller rooms) will remain the same. The wing that runs north-south along the east property line (which has been significantly altered by the 1986 upper-story addition) will be demolished and replaced with a new four-story addition in the approximate location and footprint of the existing wing. The new addition will have parking at ground level and residential units, laundry rooms, and communal space at the upper levels. The addition will be significantly set back from the west property line (approximately 145’) and only two inches taller than the existing north-south wing so as to minimize its visibility from the property’s primary street frontage on North Broadway. The new construction will be designed as a simplified, contemporary variation of the Spanish Colonial Revival style, with elements such as a low-pitched clay tile roof, rectangular massing, and stucco wall cladding. It will be compatible with, but distinct from the existing historic building. 6.4. Analysis of Project Impacts As noted above, a project has the potential to impact a historical resource if the project would result in a “substantial adverse change” to the significance of a historical resource. Generally speaking, substantial adverse change is defined as demolition or material alteration in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of a historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its inclusion in a local register of historical resources. As discussed above, the 1411 N. Broadway building is listed in the Santa Ana Register and thus meets the definition of a historical resource for the purposes of CEQA. The Project will not result in the demolition of the 1411 N. Broadway building. Although the Project proposes the removal of the existing north-south wing of the building, that wing has already been significantly altered and does not retain any distinctive historic features or spaces. The east-west wing, which has only been minimally altered and is the portion of the building most visible from the public right-of-way, will be retained and rehabilitated. Thus, the building will continue to retain all of its character-defining features, as follows: • Prominent street frontage on North Broadway • Rectangular massing • Low-pitched asymmetrical gable roof at the east-west wing • Clay tile roofing at the east-west wing (clay tiles replaced in kind) • Board-formed, painted concrete walls at the east-west wing • Entry porch at the north façade of the east-west wing 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –116 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 30 • Multi-light wood French doors at the north façade of the east-west wing • Punched window openings holding multi-light steel windows at the east-west wing • Exterior brick chimney centered on the west façade gable end of the east-west wing • Open lounge/community room at the west end of the east-west wing • Double-loaded corridor flanked by smaller rooms in the east-west wing The Project will retain the historic building’s street frontage on North Broadway. Even though the Project proposes the construction of a four-story addition to the building, the new construction will be significantly set back from North Broadway (approximately 145’) and will not block any important views of the historic resource. Furthermore, the Project has been designed in such a way that it complies with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation, as described in further detail below. Because the Project will retain the building’s distinctive characteristics, and the design of new interventions is compatible with the historic resource and only minimally visible from the primary street frontage, the building will retain the physical characteristics that account for its inclusion in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. Compliance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards Following is an analysis of all Project components against the ten Standards for Rehabilitation. 1. A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. The Project complies with Standard No. 1. The building will continue in its present use as housing for unhoused women. Exterior distinctive materials and features, including the building’s rectangular massing and L-shaped plan, as well as the east-west wing’s low-pitched gable roof with clay tile roofing, board-formed painted concrete walls, entry porch, most steel windows, French doors, and brick chimney will be retained. The general spatial arrangement of the east- west wing (lounge/communal area at the west end with a double-loaded corridor flanked by smaller rooms) will also remain. 2. The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided. The Project complies with Standard No 2. The historic character of the former YWCA building will be retained and preserved under the Project. The building’s distinctive materials and features (rectangular massing, L-shaped plan, low-pitched clay tile roof, board-formed painted concrete walls, north façade entry porch and French doors, brick chimney, nearly all of its original steel windows, and its overall first floor configuration in the east-west wing) will be retained. The overall spatial configuration of the east-west wing (open lounge/community room at the west end and double-loaded corridor with smaller rooms comprising the rest of the wing) will also be preserved. While a few historic steel windows will be removed during demolition of the rear position of the building, the majority of original windows will remain, and the few being removed will not significantly impact the historic character of the building. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –117 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 31 3. Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken. The Project complies with Standard No. 3. The Project will not add any conjectural features or elements from other historic properties. 4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved. Standard No. 4 does not apply to the Project’s impact on the subject building. Most of the prior changes to the building, including the construction of an upper-story addition at the north-south wing, re-cladding in stucco, and infill/removal of original windows and doors, occurred after 1985. Because the building’s period of significance is 1950-1985, none of these later alterations have acquired historic significance in their own right. 5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved. The Project meets Standard No. 5. As described in detail in the discussion of Standard Nos. 1 and 2, all of the building’s most distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques/examples of craftsmanship will be preserved under the Project. 6. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. The Project complies with Standard No. 6. Any deteriorated historic features or materials (board- formed concrete walls, steel windows, wood French doors, brick chimney) identified during the building’s rehabilitation will be repaired rather than replaced to the extent feasible. If deteriorated beyond repair, features/materials will be replaced in kind. Additionally, the building’s original exterior paint palette, identified through historical paint analysis, will be restored as part of the Project. 7. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. The Project meets Standard No. 7. Any chemical or physical treatments required during the building’s rehabilitation will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible so as to minimize damage to historic fabric. 8. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken. Standard No. 8 does not apply with regard to the Project’s impact on the former YWCA building. 9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –118 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 32 work shall be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment. The Project complies with Standard No. 9. A four-story addition will replace the north-south wing at the rear of the building. While the new construction will result in partial demolition of the building, the majority of the section of the building to be removed was significantly altered in the 1980s and thus contains no historic materials, features, or spatial relationships that characterize the property. The Project will preserve the historic materials and features of the historic east- west wing, including its overall form, low-pitched clay tile roof, board-formed concrete walls, north façade porch, French doors, most steel windows. The overall design, massing, features, and materials of the new construction will be compatible with, but differentiated from the remaining historic portion of the building. The addition will reflect a simplified, Spanish Colonial Revival aesthetic, with a low-pitched gable roof covered in clay tiles, stucco-clad walls, and punched rectangular window openings. The new construction will be significantly set back from North Broadway in order to minimize its visibility and overall visual impact on the historic character of the existing building from the public right-of-way. 10. New additions and adjacent or related new construction will be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired. The Project complies with Standard No. 10. The building’s original form and integrity was compromised with the construction of an upper-story addition above the north-south wing in 1986. Thus, demolition of the north-south wing and construction of a new four-story wing in its place will not impair the overall integrity of the existing building. The one-story, rectangular form of the east-west wing, as well as most of the east-west wing’s historic materials and features, are still intact. If the new four-story addition at the rear of the building is removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic east-west wing will be unimpaired. 6.5. Summary of Continued Eligibility As described above, the Project meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards with regard to its rehabilitation of the former YWCA building as well as the proposed new construction. The building is locally designated for embodying the characteristics of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture and for its association with the local YWCA chapter, an important social and cultural institution in the city. While the Project will result in some changes to the building, the building will retain all of its character-defining features and will continue to convey its significant historical associations. The building will continue to be eligible for listing as a Santa Ana Landmark upon completion of the Project. 6.6. Analysis of Indirect Impacts The Project will not have an indirect impact on any adjacent historical resources. As previously described, the Project Site is not directly adjacent to any designated or eligible historical 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –119 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 33 resources. However, there are several known historical resources within the same block as the Site (see Map 2 and below): • 1301-1307 N. Broadway: New Washington Apartments (Listed as a Key resource in the Santa Ana Register; assigned California Historical Resource (CHR) Status Code 5S2: Individual property that is eligible for local listing or designation) • 1302-1308 N. Broadway: La Casa Del Rey Apartments (Listed as a Key resource in the Santa Ana Register; assigned CHR Status Code 5S2: Individual property that is eligible for local listing or designation) • 1314 N. Broadway: Seventh Day Adventist Church (Assigned CHR Status Code 5S2: Individual property that is eligible for local listing or designation) • 1315 N. Broadway: Dr. Raymond Smith House (Listed as a Landmark in the Santa Ana Register; assigned CHR Status Code 3S: Appears individually eligible for listing in the National Register through survey evaluation) • 1320 N. Broadway: Weissman-Flag House (Listed as a Key resource in the Santa Ana Register; assigned CHR Status Code 5S2: Individual property that is eligible for local listing or designation) • 1408 N. Broadway: Magnolia Apartments (Listed as a Contributive resource in the Santa Ana Register) • 1420 N. Broadway: La Hacienda Apartments (Listed as a Key resource in the Santa Ana Register) • 1322 N. Sycamore St.: Fire Station Headquarters No. 1 (Listed as a Landmark in the Santa Ana Register; individually listed in the National and California Registers) Although most of the above buildings are residential and built before World War II, as previously noted, the block on which the Project Site is located contains a mixture of residential, commercial, and institutional properties constructed over multiple decades and in various architectural idioms. The block also contains several paved parking lots. Thus, there is no cohesive architectural style or development pattern. Because the historic character of the surrounding area has evolved over the years with multiple periods of development, construction of the new residential housing development will not negatively impact the above buildings’ historic setting. While the proposed new construction is taller in height than most of the surrounding buildings, it will only be two inches taller than the existing north-south wing/1980s addition. Additionally, the new addition will be significantly set back from the primary street frontage on North Broadway and will not block any significant views of the surrounding historical resources. For the above reasons, the Project will not result in any indirect impacts to historical resources. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –120 1411 N. Broadway Historic Resource Assessment January 12, 2022 ARCHITECTURAL RESOURCES GROUP 34 7. Conclusion In conclusion, the Project will not have a significant impact on the 1411 N. Broadway building. The building is designated Santa Ana Landmark No. 63 and therefore meets the definition of a historical resource for the purposes of CEQA. No other historical resources are located on the Project Site. The Project will not materially impair the significance of the 1411 N. Broadway building. All work proposed under the Project will have minimal impact to the historic materials and character- defining features of the building and complies with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Therefore, the building will remain eligible for designation as a local landmark, and the Project will not result in a substantial adverse change to the building. Furthermore, the Project will not indirectly impact any surrounding historical resources shown on Map 2 and enumerated in Section 6.6. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –121 1411 N.

As active members of the community who appreciate and have a passion for historical significance, Chapman University is pleased to support this solution to ending homelessness through this development and wrap around services provided by WISEPlace. We are pleased to see the groundwork that has gone into exploring the existing WISEPlace location. Maintaining the historic integrity of the location, and restoring it, while creating housing for vulnerable women will create an important solution that has never been specifically addressed in Orange County. A place where women can live paying no more than 30% of their income in rent along with support services to address their disabling conditions will create a stable environment where they can thrive. This opportunity to provide affordable housing at this existing location can create a welcome solution to a growing community need. I am pleased to express my strong support for this initiative. Respectfully, Daniele C. Struppa Chapman University 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –129 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –130 March 3, 2022 TO: Historical Resource Commission RE: Support for WISEPlace Housing Initiative Orange County United Way (OCUW) writes today to express our support for the WISEPlace Supportive Housing development with Jamboree that is under consideration. This proposal would contribute 47 units of high-quality Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) studio units to help end our county's homelessness crisis and one apartment for the onsite property manager. This development is meeting a crucial and growing need in our community for an extremely vulnerable population: unaccompanied women who have found themselves experiencing homelessness. Around a third of the homeless population in Orange County are women and according to the UCI report “Homelessness in Orange County: The Costs to Our Community” the second highest reason that women become homeless in our community is because they are fleeing domestic violence. WISEPlace has been serving the community for almost one hundred years and are expertly situated to provide the unique tailored support services that this special population requires. Their partnership with Jamboree, a well-established and trusted developer is sure to lead to both a beautiful and successful development that will lead to transformed lives. In 2018, OCUW launched United to End Homelessness, a powerful collaboration among Orange County’s top business, philanthropic, government, faith-based, and non-profit leaders committed to ending homelessness and ensuring housing and services are available for every individual who may need them. United to End Homelessness has been an influential voice in advocating for housing as the solution to end homelessness, and OCUW has always supported and maintained that affordable, stable housing is the building block to success. Thank you for your approval of the WISEPlace Supportive Housing development. We are grateful to you for your courage and willingness to improve the lives of those in-need in our community. Sincerely, Susan B. Parks President & CEO 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –131 SUBJECT: Support for Historic Exterior Modification Application No. 2022-02 Dear Historic Resources Commission, On behalf of Rotary Club of Santa Ana, I am writing to express enthusiastic support for WISEPlace and its efforts to develop supportive housing for women experiencing homelessness, some of Orange County's most vulnerable citizens for whom there has been a longstanding housing shortage. As active members of the Santa Ana community, Rotary Club of Santa Ana is pleased to support this solution to ending homelessness through this development and wrap around services provided by WISEPlace. Rotary Club of Santa Ana is a gathering of professionals who think and act both locally and globally. We are neighbors and global citizens uniting for the common good. We are pleased to see the groundwork that has gone into exploring the existing WISEPlace location. Maintaining the historic integrity of the location, and restoring it, while creating permanent housing for vulnerable women will create an important solution that has never been specifically addressed in Orange County. A place where women can live paying no more than 30% of their income in rent along with support services to address their disabling conditions will create a stable environment where they can thrive. The 2019 Point in Time showed there were over 6800 homeless residents in Orange County. Affordable Housing options for women are a growing community concern. One in three women make up this part of the homeless population with over 40% survivors of domestic violence. This population of women endure high rates of first-time homelessness, longer spells of homelessness, and higher barriers in accessing stable housing.

As active members of the Santa Ana community, Second Baptist Church is pleased to support this solution to ending homelessness through this development and wrap around services provided by WISEPlace. Second Baptist Church exists to glorify God by sharing Christ, Building Believers and Caring for all, which leads us to our ultimate vision to demonstrate the love of God to every nation, generation, and situation thereby fulfilling the Great Commission. The past 10 years, we have been very hands on, engaged as active members of our community and proud WISEPlace supporters and volunteers who work directly with the population served and have seen firsthand the power of housing solutions and wrap around services onsite. We are pleased to see the groundwork that has gone into exploring the existing WISEPlace location. Maintaining the historic integrity of the location, and restoring it, while creating housing for vulnerable women will create an important solution that has never been specifically addressed in Orange County. A place where women can live paying no more than 30% of their income in rent along with support services to address their disabling conditions will create a permanent stable environment where they can thrive. The 2019 Point in Time showed there were over 6,800 homeless residents in Orange County. Affordable Housing options for women are a growing community concern. One in three women make up this part of the homeless population with over 40% survivors of domestic violence. This population of women endure high rates of first-time homelessness, longer spells of homelessness, and higher barriers in accessing stable housing. Unaccompanied women also report extremely high incidence of trauma–whether physical, sexual, or psychological in nature–that is compounded by their ongoing houselessness. The opportunity to create options for women on this site with so many community amenities will provide a safe home for women for future generations. Affordable housing is a resource to our communities that provides stability, community, and economic opportunity to our neighbors. We only have this resource if we build it.

Snow, Ph.D. Distinguished Professor Emeritus RE: Support for WISEPlace Housing Initiative I am writing to express enthusiastic support for WISEPlace and its efforts to develop permanent supportive housing for homeless women, some of Orange County’s most vulnerable citizens for whom there has been a longstanding housing shortage. You may recall that I was the lead researcher for a 2017 comprehensive study of the cost of homelessness in Orange County, conducted in cooperation with OC United Way and Jamboree Housing Corporation. Among the major findings was that homelessness in the county is caused first and foremost by the intersection of the county’s high-cost housing market, particularly its rental market, and insufficient income, due in large part to the low wages and job losses, to access the housing market. When avowed causes for homelessness are assessed in terms of gender, we found in a subsequent cluster analysis (see figure below) that the cluster with the largest predicted percent of women was the lack of affordable housing/job loss cluster, which accounted for 74 percent of the women. When it is considered that women make up slightly more than a third of the county’s homeless population per the 2019 county PIT count, and that 58 percent of the women interviewed for the cost study reported experiencing physical and/or sexual abuse during childhood and/or domestic violence as a reason for their homelessness, the importance of providing safe, permanent supportive housing for homeless women becomes even more palpably compelling. It is my understanding that the current WISEPlace initiative will provide up to 48 housing units for homeless women who can live paying no more than 30 percent of their income in rent along with support services to address their challenging life situations and conditions, thus creating a permanent stable environment where they can thrive. I am pleased to see that the groundwork for the initiative is moving forward while maintaining the historic integrity of the location. It is with these considerations in mind that I register my wholehearted support for the WISEPlace initiative. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –134 UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, IRVINE BERKELEY • DAVIS • IRVINE • LOS ANGELES • MERCED • RIVERSIDE • SAN DIEGO • SAN FRANCISCO SANTA BARBARA • SANTA CRUZ David A.

This proposal would contribute 47 units of high-quality Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) studio units to help end our county's homelessness crisis and one apartment for the onsite property manager. This development is meeting a crucial and growing need in our community for an extremely vulnerable population: unaccompanied women who have found themselves experiencing homelessness. Around a third of the homeless population in Orange County are women and according to the UCI report “Homelessness in Orange County: The Costs to Our Community” the second highest reason that women become homeless in our community is because they are fleeing domestic violence. WISEPlace has been serving the community for almost one hundred years and are expertly situated to provide the unique tailored support services that this special population requires. Their partnership with Jamboree a well-established and trusted developer is sure to lead to both a beautiful and successful development that will lead to transformed lives. United to End Homelessness was launched by Orange County United Way in 2018. We are a collaboration of Orange County’s top business, philanthropic, government, faith-based, and non-profit leaders committing to ending homelessness and ensuring housing and services are available for every individual who may need them. Thank you for your approval of the WISEPlace Supportive Housing development. We are grateful to you for your courage and willingness to improve the lives of those in-need in our community.

As active members of our great Santa Ana community, The Santa Ana Elks are pleased to support this solution to ending homelessness through this housing development and wrap around services provided by WISEPIace. Santa Ana Elks has recently created a valued partnership with WISEPIace and are impressed with their demonstration of care for this vulnerable population. They are best positioned, along with their partners Jamboree Housing, to help end homelessness in our communi ty. And Santa Ana Elks is committed to staying involved and leveraging resources to help these great organizations. WISEPIace is the only nonprofit in Orange County who is solely focused on the unmet needs of this vulnerable population (unaccompanied women.) One in three women make up this part of the homeless population with over 40% survivors of domestic violence. This population of women endure high rates of first-time homelessness, longer spells of homelessness, and higher barriers in accessing stable housing. Unaccompanied women also report extremely high incidence of trauma—whether physical, sexual, or psychological in nature—that is compounded by their ongoing houselessness.

Welcome to the WISEPlace Supportive Housing community meeting. My name is Kelsey Brewer and I serve as the Senior Director of Government Affairs and Business have a very exciting agenda put together and most of it has been set aside to hear from all of you who have taken time out of your busy, busy lives to be with us today to talk about how we can incorporate housing into our communities in meaningful ways. Just a couple ground rules that I to go over b We ask that you keep your worry, you will be able to once the presentation is over. We will give everyone an opportunity to ask as many questions as they like and provide feedback, but please feel free to keep I saw some of you already saying hello, which is one of the things I love about working in Santa you for your participation in that. This video is going to be used for video on our website and for transcription and translation services so that every member of the community has an opportunity to receive information as everybody else. Last housekeeping item is feel free to use the chat, where you can ask questions and communicate with one another. We ask that you be presentation, something is not showing on your screen, go ahead and privately message one of us and we can trouble shoot on our end. That concludes the boring items I have been tasked with, so I am going to go ahead and turn it over to Brateil, the lovely and wonderful CEO of WISEPlace. PRESENTATION BEGINS and only supportive housing for unaccompanied women. We want to take a few minutes to talk about WISEPlace and Jamboree. WISEPlace is a community of housing and hope. We have been so proud to be a Satna Ana community member since our inception in the 19020s since our inception in 1924, we are so proud to have walked alongside and served over 8,400 women rebuilding their lives. lely focused on the segment of a population that is largely unserved and overlooked, and that is unaccompanied women. Unaccompanied women is our way of saying women that lack the support of children or a spouse. It used to be said about a year and a half ago, maybe before the pandemic, that 1 in every 4 homeless adults was an unaccompanied woman, but unfortunately it is now 1 in every 3 homeless adults is an unaccompanied woman, so those numbers are definitely going in the wrong direction. Women who experience homelessness are 5 to 10 times more likely to be assaulted than the general population. And unfortunately women are also victimized at higher rates than men. Last year alone, 67% of the women WISEPlace were survivors of domestic violence and almost half of those women were actively fleeing. 2/3rds of the women that we proudly serve are disables and almost 100% of the women we serve live before the poverty line. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –148 Two of the women we serve, you see their two beautiful faces on your screen there. Diana was a participany that has now been house for over two years, with her golden Jay. Shelly is the woman with the blue hoodie. Both of these women were experiencing homelessness as they were seniors dealing with healthcare issues. Diana is a two time cancer survivor. And I will never forget meeting Shelly on my first day at WISEPlace three years ago and Shelly had an pain. It was because of their healthcare reasons that S nursgin care and therefore she started to experience homelessness and Diana lost her job and started to experience homelessness. When these women came to the shelter, we quickly got to work. And first and foremost, we started to stabilize their healthcare. Once we were able to stabilize their healthcare and help them navigate the healthcare system, which is so hard to do alone without access to a computer, we were able to end their homelessness. These two women who had been homeless for five or six years, couch surfing in unsafe environments, both residents of Santa Ana, are now s. They live about two or three doors down from each other. h unfortunate circumstances and has ended with both of these ladies being housed and being home. Now that we took a few minutes to talk about who we serve and why focusing on unaccompanied women is so important, we want to talk about our wraparound services. These are the wraparound that we would apply to our housing approach. So besides safe shelter and basic necessities, like providing thousands of meals and thousands of one of our core focuses is on weekly one-to-one case management with qualified, trained, accredited staff members who really are person centered and really invest in getting to know a woman. We also pay our case management with one-to-one psychiatric or psychological counseling. We have strategic partnerships that are focused on proactive approaches to healthcare, medical, dental, vision. And of course employment being so vital to secure and sustain housing. We have great partnerships like the Santa Ana workforce center and other great partners as well as in-house employment support service. And of course income and savings is so important. Over 70% of the women that leave our program have a significant income and savings. Besides that, we have a lot of fun at the shelter. We have lots of weekly activities, lots of socialization: movie nights, bingo, yoga, meditation, community and have opportunities to break isolation. And for those that need it, not everybody does, but for those that do, we also have on-site and off-site recovery programs as well. And covid and of course we were safe with amsks on. But this is Ceara and we are so proud to have walked alongside with Ceara and she has at such a young age experienced homelessness for over a decade. And Ceara has broken decades long cycles of poverty and homelessness. and then Ceara at a very young age. But she wanted to turn her life around and she came to WISEPlace. And we were able to first, because of her mental disabilities, provide 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –149 her with supportive housing. A few months ago, this is Ceara in her new apartment, with her new roommate, she has a dog, she works full-- time, and you see it in the quote, but she says that she now has the encouragement and support to follow her dreams. She now knows that she is deserving of a bright future. She is housed and she is home. And so we are so proud to have been in the Santa Ana community for decades. And the create outcomes and change for deserving women. 77% or more go from experiencing direct homelessness, either courch surfing in unsafe environments or living in their cars, to being housed. And those that we house, over 90% retain their housing. We continue to support women after they are housed as well. Over 73% have increased incomes and savings. Over 100% have increased knowledge of financial literacy. We do a lot of conversations about budgeting and being trusting of traditional financial institutions, so not being vulnerable. Not putting money in the undergarment or under the bed, but to really have increased financial literacy. Over 70% obtain employment. We are thankful to be in the community and thankful to have found a partner in Jamboree Housing that really shares our vision for supportive housing for unaccompanied women. CASEY: Thank you so much Brateil, and hi e Jamboree is a mission-driven nonprofit founded in 1990 here in Irvine. We are a community development corporation focusing on affordable and permanent supportive housing development. We believe housing really creates healthy, strong, and sustainable communities developers. We work everyday to transform lives and strengthen communities. Then the next slide is Who is Jamboree. So, Jamboree is a development company that is continuing to grow. You can see we over 96 communities state-wide and over 9,300 units or apartments homes developed by partnering with cities and agencies throughout California. And we serve residents such as seniors, families, veterans, and those with special needs. So you can see we have experience partnering with over 40 joint ventures urn it over to Evanne at Architectural Resources Group (ARG) who is going to discuss historic preservation EVANNE: Good evening everybody. As Casey mentioned, I am with ARG. ARG is a historic consulting firm. We were brought on by Jamboree and WISEPlace to assess the historic significance of the building and the impacts of the proposed project on the building because the building is a listed Santa Ana historic landmark. Constructed in 1950, the existing building on the project site was the first purpose-built facility to house the Santa Ana chapter of the YWCA. The building is designated a City of Santa Ana historic landmark for its association with the Y and for embodying the features of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture. The building, as you can see on this historic newspaper image, is 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –150 historically and currently L-shaped in plan with a one-story wing running E-W and facing Broadway and a two-story wing extending N-S along Sycamore Street. Historically, the wing at the rear of the building was one story and now is two stories. In 1986, a large addition was constructed atop the N-S wing. The construction of the addition necessitated the enclosure of some window and door opening and the application of stucco wall cladding. Althgouh the N-S wing of the building has been significantly altered with this 1980s addition, the one-story that faces Broadway is largely unchanged form its original construction. It retains its original gable roof with clay-tile roofing, painted concreted walls, steel windows, and brick chimney. Because the E-W wing retains most of its original features, that helped to convey its historic character and appearance. It was important that the project preserve as much of the historic E-W wing as possible. The proposed development will retain and rehabilitate the E-W wing. The wing that runs N-S along Sycamore Street will be demolished and replaced with a new four-story addition in the approximate location and footprint of the existing N-S wing. It will be significantly set back from the street as well as the original west façade of the building. This is essentially in order to minimize its visibility from Broadway, which is the primary street frontage of the building. The new construction will only b than the existing building. So as you can see on this slide, the existing view is on the right the proposed view is on the left. difference between the two. All existing character defining features of the historic portion of the E-W wing, including its rectangular massing, clay-tile gable roof, painted concrete walls, steel windows, and brick chimney will be preserved. The new construction will be designed as a simplified, contemporary variation of the Spanish Colonial Revivial style with elements such as a clay tile roof and stucco wall cladding. It will be compatible with, but differentiated from, the existing historic building. In addition to its compatible Spanish Colonial Revivial design, the new construction will be painted in a darker green paint scheme, which helps the building to recede into the background and further minimize its visual impact along Broadway. Because all of distinctive features and materials will remain under the project, and the proposed new construction is compatible with the historic character and appearance of the building, the project will not have an impact on the historic significance of this Santa Ana historic landmark. to talk in more detail about the proposed project and use of the building. CASEY: Thank you Evanne. So we wanted to start with a slide on what is supportive housing. development Heroes Landing, also in Santa Ana, award-winning PSHdevelpment for formerly homeless veterans. It features a lot of partnerships for wraparound case management services with agencies like the VA. So supportive housing is permanent, just like any other apartment building, and residents will sign a lease and agree to rules. But, in addition they will 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –151 get those wrap-around supportive services on site through a case manager. And i a nationally recognized best practice that when you incorporate these wrap-around services into long-term housing, you really create this housing stability. Jamboree has seen a lot of success with this approach, so when we build PSH, we have 98% retention rate. And we are excited to partner with WISEPlace so we can build on that record of success and serve this exceptionally vulnerable population. So together we will transform the development into a sanctuary for unaccompanied women. Then the next few slides will go into some details on the design. As Evanne noted, we will preserve the one-story facing Broadway and the Spanish Colonial Revival style. And our goal was to have it blend in seamlessly with the surrounding community by preserving this existing building and the sight lines along Broadway. And then you can see the massing sort of steps back as you step away from Broadway. And there is a new outdoor courtyard proposed on that third level and it will have a nice synergy with the new community room proposed there, so that we can provide services to the residents in an indoor/outdoor atmosphere. And then the next slide will go into some more about the unit mix, so thank you Kelsey. We will have 48 apartments total, 47 will be studios and then one 2-BD for the on-site manager, who will live there. Future residents will pay no more than 30% of their income on rent. And again the population served will be unaccompanied women who are currently experiencing homelessness. And so we talked about preserving the historic nature of the building and staying . So you can see the different vantage points, even with keeping the existing building preserved, we are able to provide about 6,000 SF of services and community room space on site. And then we will have 20 parking spaces with a parking garage along Sycamore and an entry along Sycamore as well. Brateil to discuss operations further. BRATEIL: Thanks Casey Safety is so important to both WISEplace and Jamboree and aligned with that desire to provide the utmost safety will have 24/7 onsite property manager who will actually live there. So if there is an issue in the surrounding neighborhood or with the residence, regardless of what the issue is, our property manager lives there and will be accessible 24/7. In addition to the property manager, our case manager will be there to support on call 24/7. We will of course have keyless entry, cameras, security gates. A much more upgrade system then what we have now. There will be visitation protocols for our residents Supportive housing works because it is the pairing of housing with wrap around supportive services. You heard me talk about them earlier but some additional example of programing that would be in these housing units would be connecting residents to services that already exist int 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –152 eh community, we will not be duplicating services. Santa Ana has some great services and we plan to integrate into that to build community and build neighborhood. That would be in addition to inhouse socialization and connection activities described earlier. Being an nonprofit during the pandemic, we have hundreds of volunteers that love to be engaged and we will have vibrant and robust volunteer opportunities on and off site. We will be so focused on health and wellness services counseling and case management. Last but not least is the fun. The fun in addition to financial literacy, life skills, the wholistic approach described earlier. We want to thank you for allowing us the opportunity to share or vision to build OCs first supportive housing for unaccompanied women and we would like to open for any questions or feedback. Q&A KELSEY: That is the cue to unmute myself. Thank you to Brateil and Casey. They will continue to be available for question but I will moderate this discussion. If you see at the bottom of your screen, there are the emojis and if you would please click on the hand raise symbol to be called on. We will go in the order they pop-up on the screen. If that does not work, do not worry. We will go through everyone on the call and ensure everyone has an opportunity to speak. Okay Alberta, I see you. I will unmute you, please accept that. ALBERTA: Thank you so much KELSEY: The floor is yours. ALBERTA: Hi everybody, if you missed it, I am on the historic resource commission. My question is for Evanne. Why do you feel it is necessary to demolish the build, that is number 1, is a landmark, that is colonial style. That is the first criteria for placing a landmark on your registry. In addition to the second criteria is the importance to this city. Why do you think you have to demolish that building in order to serve, to commit you serves at WISEplace. EVANNE: the building would not be entirely demolished, the portion of the building that is going to be demolished would be the significant portion that has suffered the loss of historic integrity of the 1980 addition and subsequent alterations associated with that. Windows that were infilled and stucco cladding would replace the original concrete exterior walls. So we felt that the integrity of the portion of the south wing had been diminish, it would be an appropriate place for the new portion addition to be located and the new construction is equally setback as the 1980 portion and minimally visible from the primary street view on 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –153 Broadway so it would the most appropriate place to add on to provide the additional services that WISEplace-the number being significantly greater, being able to add onto the building. ALBERTA: Our commission started in 1998 that would done prior to the commission, that back extension, which would have never been approved if the commission had been established in the 80s. You are talking about the east/west would be demolished, the Colonial Revival. EVANNE: the only portion that will be demolished is the north/south portion. The colonial east/west portion will be retained. demolished. Okay but, you are not keeping the original building because you are now increasing the fireplace, if I am looking at the correctly EVANNE: the fireplace will not be increased. KELSEY: I am going to jump in. what you are likely seeing is a lighting different in the photos but there is no difference in the fireplace. ALBERTA: what you are saying is that the front building will remain the same. EVANNA: Correct ALBERTA: we need to clear that up because the historic resources commission, when Tim Rush and I meet, We thought you were going to demolish the landmark building in order to accomplish providing the services that you want. EVANNA: this is a different design than what was initially proposed. BRATEIL: This is a different design from the conversation we original had. We went back and revised our vision for supportive housing with a new architect more sensitive to historical buildings. The historic portion will be restored but not demoed. ause of the building in the back, normally, when you have a historic building in the back, you are not supposed to see any height above the existing structure above that. We have Pedro Gomez, who is our staff for the historic resource, and Pedro, my question is, how is the impact that the landmark building is in front and for any increase for that to go up that high on the landmark, would impact the landmark view corridor. KELSEY: I can only have one non-host unmuted at a time. So, I will mute you briefly and come back to you. Evanne do you want to add anything? 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –154 EVANNE: the building you see in the rear is only two inches taller than the existing rear wing. Maybe because the fact that one is a rendering and one is a street view image, one may look a bit taller. But there is not a significant height difference from what is existing and what is proposed. Pedro: Thank you Kelsey. ARG has prepared an impact analysis on the work that has been proposed by WISEPlace and Jamboree. I would defer back to Evanna or her colleagues to discuss about what you are talking about Alberta in the height in this structure. The Historic Commission will have an opportunity to review this in depth at their March meeting. Evanne maybe you can talk about how it is setback from Broadway and how it respects existing volume now. Let me know if that is what you are getting at Alberta? I will hand it back to ARG since they are the experts and they put together the analysis for this project. EVANNE: Thank you Pedro. To reiterate to what Pedro was saying in regard to the setback. The new construction will be over 130 feet from Broadway so because the setback is so significant, and the height difference is so minimal. The historic east/west wing that is being preserves, is the historic character that is being preserved and retained because of the setback and is not overwhelming the building in any way so that it will continue to be significant and eligible as a Santa Ana historic landmark. ALBERTA: Thank you to Pedro and Evanne for the explanation. Santa Ana is so historically minded in preservation and keep historic structures. Looking at this, bringing this up. We look forward, we hope everyone will be at the March 3 Historic Commission meeting. View corridors are my pet peeve. Thank you so much. KELSEY: Thank you, I will place you back on mute. I love when a question can end with smiles. Does anyone else have a questions. I see Edward has his hand raised EDWARD: Hi, thank you very much. Can you put that view back in? KELSEY: Absolutely, give me two seconds. EDWARD: Certainly, if you look at the telephone pole just to the right of the tree. You see that compared to what is on the right. That is not just two-inches, it is about 6 ft or more. I would certainly update that image before you put it in the HRC. To clarify, the east west building itself, there is really no work being done on that other than repaint and freshen up a bit? CASEY: I can answer that. So we are planning to rehabilitate it. New windows, new paint to EDWARD: New windows- are they going to be the same? 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –155 CASEY: yes they will be the same, Evanne can you remind me EVANNE: the steel windows would remain, they will be restored to original working condition, same for the roof. The only changes occurring are interior but the overall layout of the building will stay the same. New finish will accommodate former finish EDWARD: Full disclosure, I am a historic resources commission member, thank you. off to Chris CHRIS: I am the architect for Jamboree Housing. I want to comment on the perspective of the rendering you are looking at here. It is not a perfect science. We take a photograph and try to place it into the rendering but there is a bit of guess work involved to try to match the prespective. The other thing I would like to bring up, maybe this is not understood because we have not seen a plan view of the new proposed compared to the existing. The new building appears to be taller because the new building is closer than the existing. It is still 130 ft from Broadway, but it is not matching the current 2-3 building volume there. It will never match up to the telephone pole because of that. KELSEY: We are going to go back to Edward. EDWARD: okay so it is closer, so it will appear taller. It is also shifted to the north, looking at it comparted to the existing imagine. That building is going to be shifted over and move closer so you will see a different perspective like you are seeing in this image. CHRIS: To answer your question, the new proposed building is not matching the exact position of the current. We are designing our building to fit for housing units so the new construction does not match the exact position of the two and three story building there today. KELSEY: Putting that in simple terms. The actual building itself, while moving slightly closer, will match the overall profile and height of the building that is currently there, is that correct Chris. CHRIS: The footprint of the building, is going to be a little bit of a different width and length and a little closer to the road. With as much of the existing one-story building will remain. We have work to push as much of the massing as back as possible. KELSEY: But to confirm the question asked by Edward is that the height is within 2 inches. CHRIS: I am not sure if it is 2 inches or 4 inches. KELSEY: Okay thank you. Margarita I am going to unmute you. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –156 neighborhood initiative office. We provide a lot of support and coordination with the neighborhood associations, many who are part of this call. In the past, we worked very closely with your former leader Kathy Davis Colman who retired a few years ago. Through her leadership she really was instrumental in opening doors and hosting resource planning meetings to be able to engage with other partners who are doing a lot of community building work. I know that a lot of the project amenities speak to how they directly benefit the residence. I was curious if there would be an opportunity, after the pandemic and project completion, having all the approvals, if there would be an opportunity to reconnect. A lot of times, once you have that space, the space to reconnect and demonstrate to partners in the community that this is something meaningful. I recall some of the conversations about repurposing that wing you are proposing to building housing and residential units on. This is not so much about the project itself but about relational work that can happen through a project like this for the neighborhood and community partners that have an interest to partner and do community work with those who offer that. BRATEIL: I would love to work with you. My second year was 2020. Collaboration has been alive and well and engaged with the organization. I am going to send my information. I would love to get together and learn more and to just keep being a good neighbor. KELSEY: If anyone does not have any questions, I will begin clicking on people. I will give you a heads up before I request you to unmute. If you do not want to, go ahead and reject. ALYSSA: Hi everyone, I work with the neighborhood initiative with Margarita. I am just here to learn more about the program and what you folks offer. KELSEY: Tim Johnson TIM: Hi everyone, I am Tim Johnson. I am on the board for WISEplace, I am also a Santa Ana resident. Alberta, I appreciate your question. I remember going to your board for my house. You asked me to trim the tree and then the Santa Ana winds came and blew the tree down Our neighbors seem to be quite supportive of WISEplace and what they are doing for the neighborhood. KELSEY: Thank you so much for being here Tim. Maria I am going to unmute you. MARIA: This is really great, thank you. I look forward to this. KELSEY: This is the first community meeting. Thank you for your feedback. It will impact the design. You can contact us at any point in this process. I will display the contact, it will not change during the duration of the project. We have also set-up a community page that you can see updates about the project. That will wrap it up. Thank you again for joining us. We will see everyone again in the next few weeks at the next community meeting. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –157 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –158 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –159 5/9/2022

everyone. Welcome to the WISEPlace Supportive Housing community meeting. My name is Kelsey Brewer and I serve as the Senior Director of Government Affairs and Business is is our second like to go over before I turn it over to today able to once the presentation is over. We will give everyone an opportunity to ask as many questions as they like and provide feedback, but please feel free to keep cameras on. For legal participation in that. This video is going to be used for video on our website and for transcription and translation services so that every member of the community has an opportunity to receive information as everybody else. Last housekeeping item is feel free to use the chat, where you can ask questions and communicate with one another. We ask that you be respectful and kind, call so if you are having an issue hearing the presentation, something is not showing on your screen, go ahead and privately message me, Kelsey Brewer, and troubleshoot on our end. That concludes the boring items I have been tasked with, so I am going to go ahead and turn it over to Brateil, the lovely and wonderful CEO of WISEPlace. PRESENTATION BEGINS BRATEIL: Before we go into some of the information we covered in the last meeting, our team wanted to provide you with an update on what has happened with this project since the first community outreach meeting. Following that first meeting, WISEPlace Supportive Housing development received unanimous support from the Historical Resource Commission. For those who were at the first meeting, you know how important maintaining the historical nature of the out that more tonight, but to have the full support of the historical resources commission is a really big deal and an important step in getting this development fully approved. submitted WISEPlace Supportive Housing for funding through the . This application was supported by letters of support from the community, BRATEIL: And with that update I wanted to take a few minutes to talk about WISEPlace and Jamboree. WISEPlace is a community of housing and hope. We have been so proud to be a Satna Ana community member since our inception in 1924, we are so proud to have walked alongside and served over 8,400 women rebuilding their lives. WISEPlace is the only orga solely focused on the segment of a population that is largely unserved and overlooked, and that is unaccompanied women. It used to be said about a year and a half ago, maybe before the pandemic, that 1 in every 4 homeless adults was an unaccompanied woman, but unfortunately 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –218 it is now 1 in every 3 homeless adults is an unaccompanied woman, so those numbers are definitely going in the wrong direction. Women who experience homelessness are 5 to 10 times more likely to be assaulted than the general population. Unaccompanied women are also victimized at a higher rate than men experiencing. Last year alone, 67% of the women WISEPlace were survivors of domestic violence and almost half of those women were actively fleeing. 2/3rds of the women that we proudly serve are disables and almost 100% of the women we serve live before the poverty line. We also have the story of two of the women WISEPlace has served over the years, their smiling faces on your screen there. Diana was a participant that has now been house for over two years, with her golden Jay. Shelly is the woman with the blue hoodie. Both of these women were experiencing homelessness as they were seniors dealing with healthcare issues. Diana is a two time cancer survivor and Shelly has an amputated leg, she was in a wheelchair the first time I met her her healthcare issues nursing care and therefore she started to experience homelessness and Diana lost her job and started to experience homelessness. When these women came to the shelter, we quickly got to work. And first and foremost, we started to stabilize their healthcare. Once we were able to stabilize their healthcare and help them navigate the healthcare system, which is so hard to do alone without access to a computer, we were able to end their homelessness. These two women who had been homeless for five or six years, couch surfing in unsafe environments, both residents of Santa Ana, are now housed these ladies being housed and being home. Now that to talk about our wraparound supportive services. These are the same types of supportive services that we would apply to our housing approach should this development be approved by the City. So besides safe shelter and one of our core focuses is on weekly one-to-one case management with qualified, trained, accredited staff members who really are person centered and really invest in getting to know the women that they work with at WISEPlace. We also pair our case management with one-to-one psychiatric or psychological counseling. We have strategic partnerships that are focused on proactive approaches to healthcare, medical, dental, vision. And, of course, employment services, which, employment, is so vital to securing and maintaining housing. We have great partnerships like the Santa Ana workforce center and other great partners as well as in-house employment support service. And, of course, income and savings is so important. Over 70% of the women that leave our program have a significant income and savings. We also have a lot of fun at the WISEPlace, because fun is important! We have lots of weekly activities, lots of socialization: movie nights, bingo, yoga, meditation community through connection, and having a chance to break the isolation that homelessness 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –219 causes. And for those that need it, not everybody does, but for those that do, we also have on- site and off- fe with amsks on. But this is Ceara and we are so proud to have walked alongside with Ceara and she has at such a young age experienced homelessness for over a decade. And Ceara has broken decades long wanted to turn her life around and she came to WISEPlace. And we were able to first, because of her mental disabilities, provide her with supportive housing. A few months ago, this is Ceara in her new apartment, with her new roommate, she has a dog, she works full- start to go to school part-time, and you see it in the quote, but she says that she now has the encouragement and support to follow her dreams. She now knows that she is deserving of a bright future. She is housed and she is home. And we know that our approach works here in the City of Santa Ana. 77% or more of our women go from experiencing direct homelessness, either courch surfing in unsafe environments or living in their cars, to being housed. And those that we house, over 90% retain their housing. We continue to support women after they are housed as well. Over 73% have increased incomes and savings. Over 100% have increased knowledge of financial literacy. We do a lot of conversations about budgeting and being trusting of traditional financial institutions, so not being vulnerable. Not putting money in the undergarment or under the bed, but to really have increased financial literacy. Over 70% obtain employment. We are thankful to be in the community and thankful to have found a partner in Jamboree Housing that really shares our vision for supportive housing for unaccompanied women. CASEY: T Jamboree is a mission-driven nonprofit founded in 1990 here in Irvine. We are a community development corporation focusing on affordable and permanent supportive housing development. We believe housing really creates healthy, strong, and sustainable communities developers. We work every day to transform lives and strengthen communities. Next slide, , Jamboree is a development company that is continuing to grow. You can see we over 96 communities state-wide and over 9,300 units or apartments homes to 10,000 units, developed by partnering with cities and agencies throughout California. And we serve residents such as seniors, families, veterans, and those with special needs. So you can see we have experience partnering with over 40 joint ventures and urn it over to Evanne at Architectural Resources Group (ARG) who is going to discuss historic preservation EVANNE: Good evening everybody. As Casey mentioned, I am with ARG. ARG is a historic consulting firm. We were brought on by Jamboree and WISEPlace to assess the historic 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –220 significance of the building and the impacts of the proposed project on the building because the building is a listed Santa Ana historic landmark. Constructed in 1950, the existing building on the project site was the first purpose-built facility to house the Santa Ana chapter of the YWCA. The building is designated a City of Santa Ana historic landmark for its association with the Y and for embodying the features of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture. The building, as you can see on this historic newspaper image, is historically and currently L-shaped in plan with a one-story wing running E-W and facing Broadway and a two-story wing extending N-S along Sycamore Street. Historically, the wing at the rear of the building was one story and now is two stories. In 1986, a large addition was constructed atop the N-S wing. The construction of the addition necessitated the enclosure of some window and door opening and the application of stucco wall cladding. Although the N-S wing of the building has been significantly altered with this 1980s addition, the one-story that faces Broadway is largely unchanged from its original construction. It retains its original gable roof with clay-tile roofing, painted concreted walls, steel windows, and brick chimney. Because the E-W wing retains most of its original features, that helped to convey its historic character and appearance. It was important that the project preserve as much of the historic E-W wing as possible. The proposed development will retain and rehabilitate the E-W wing. The wing that runs N-S along Sycamore Street will be demolished and replaced with a new four-story addition in the approximate location and footprint of the existing N-S wing. It will be significantly set back from the street as well as the original west façade of the building. This is essentially in order to minimize its visibility from Broadway, which is the primary street frontage of the building. The difference between the two. All existing character defining features of the historic portion of the E-W wing, including its rectangular massing, clay-tile gable roof, painted concrete walls, steel windows, and brick chimney will be preserved. The new construction will be designed as a simplified, contemporary variation of the Spanish Colonial Revivial style with elements such as a clay tile roof and stucco wall cladding. It will be compatible with, but differentiated from, the existing historic building. In addition to its compatible Spanish Colonial Revivial design, the new construction will be painted in a darker green paint scheme, which helps the building to recede into the background and features and materials will remain under the project, and the proposed new construction is compatible with the historic character and appearance of the building, the project will not have an impact on the historic significance of this Santa Ana historic landmark. l hand it back over to Casey to talk in more detail about the proposed project and use of the building. CASEY: Thank you Evanne. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –221 So we talked about it at the first meeting, and have also mentioned it a couple times already, but I wanted to start with a sl Heroes Landing, also in Santa Ana, award-winning PSH development for formerly homeless veterans. It features a lot of partnerships for wraparound case management services with agencies like the VA. So supportive housing is permanent, just like any other apartment building, and residents will sign a lease and agree to rules. But, in addition they will get those wrap-around supportive services on site through a case manager a nationally recognized best practice that when you incorporate these wrap-around services into long-term housing, you really create this housing stability. Jamboree has seen a lot of success with this approach, so when we build PSH, we have 92% retention rate. And we are excited to partner with WISEPlace so we can build on that record of success and serve this exceptionally vulnerable population. So together we will transform the development into a sanctuary for unaccompanied women. Then the next few slides will go into some details on the design. As Evanne noted, we will preserve the one-story facing Broadway and the Spanish Colonial Revival style. And our goal was to have it blend in seamlessly with the surrounding community by preserving this existing building and the sight lines along Broadway. And then you can see the massing sort of steps back as you step away from Broadway. And there is a new outdoor courtyard proposed on that third level and it will have a nice synergy with the new community room proposed there, so that we can provide services to the residents in an indoor/outdoor atmosphere. And then the next slide will go into some more about the unit mix, so thank you Kelsey. We will have 48 apartments total, 47 will be studios and then one 2-BD for the on-site manager, who will live there. Future residents will pay no more than 30% of their income on rent. And again the population served will be unaccompanied women who are currently experiencing homelessness. And so we talked about preserving the historic nature of the building and staying . So you can see the different vantage points, even with keeping the existing building preserved, we are able to provide about 6,000 SF of services and community room space on site. And then we will have 20 parking spaces with a parking garage along Sycamore and an entry along Sycamore as well. Brateil to discuss operations further. BRATEIL: Thanks Casey Safety is one of the most important values to both WISEplace and Jamboree and aligned with that value is our effort to provide the utmost security as possible. We will have 24/7 onsite property manager who will actually live there. So if there is an issue in the surrounding neighborhood or with the residence, regardless of what the issue is, our property manager lives there and will be accessible 24/7. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 1 –222 In addition to the property manager, our case manager will be there to support on call 24/7. We will of course have keyless entry, cameras, security gates. A much more upgrade system then what we have now. There will be visitation protocols for our residents Supportive housing works because it is the pairing of housing with wrap around supportive services. You heard me talk about them earlier but some additional example of programing that would be in these housing units would be connecting residents to services that already exist int eh community, we will not be duplicating services. Santa Ana has some great services and we plan to integrate into that to build community and build neighborhood. That would be in addition to inhouse socialization and connection activities described earlier. Being a nonprofit during the pandemic, we have hundreds of volunteers that love to be engaged and we will have vibrant and robust volunteer opportunities on and off site. We will be so focused on health and wellness services counseling and case management. Last but not least is the fun. The fun in addition to financial literacy, life skills, the wholistic approach described earlier. We want to thank you for allowing us the opportunity to share or vision to build OCs first supportive housing for unaccompanied women and we would like to open for any questions or feedback. Q&A KELSEY: That is the cue to unmute myself. Thank you to Brateil and Casey. They will continue to be available for question but I will moderate this discussion. If you see at the bottom of your screen, there are the emojis and if you would please click on the hand raise symbol to be called on. We will go in the order they pop-up on the screen.

Lacy Street (Habitat for Humanity) May 9, 2022 Page 4 2 6 1 1 Project Background In 1984, the Santa Ana City Council designated the French Park District as a local “historic district” through a special historic overlay zone (i.e., SD-19). In 1999, the French Park District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Over 130 individual properties were found to be contributing to the district, which included many large Victorian, Craftsman, Colonial Revival, Spanish Colonial, and English Tudor Revival homes. The subject properties were formerly addressed as 412 through 416 E. Vance Street and formerly contained a six-unit apartment building, constructed around 1960. In 1990, the City of Santa Ana Housing Authority (“Housing Authority”) acquired 826 N. Lacy Street and subsequently acquired 830 N. Lacy Street in 1994. The six-unit apartment building was later demolished in 1995. In 2018, the Housing Authority issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the development of affordable rental and ownership housing projects in the City. In 2019, the City Council authorized a pre-loan commitment letter with Habitat for Humanity for $231,494 in Inclusionary Housing Funds for the development of the proposed residences on Lacy Street. In addition, the Housing Authority authorized a pre-commitment letter for a 99-year ground lease for both 826 and 830 N. Lacy Street. In 2020, a Conditional Grant Agreement, maintenance restriction agreements, and two 99-year ground leases were authorized for the development of the sites. Habitat for Humanity of Orange County is a nonprofit organization specializing in the construction of affordable homes for purchase by qualifying families. Since, 1988 the Orange County affiliate has completed and sold 219 new homes in its service area. Thirty of those homes have been built in the City of Santa Ana. The proposed homes at 826 and 830 N. Lacy Street will be ownership properties and will be made available to qualifying moderate-income families (up to 120% of Area Median Income or AMI). Analysis of the Issues Both project sites are located within the boundaries of the French Park Historic District (SD-19). As detailed in SD-19, all new construction requires review and approval by the Planning Commission to ensure that any new development maintains the integrity of the historic neighborhood. The Planning Commission is required to make findings that the proposed new construction complies with the Historic French Park Design Guidelines (“Guidelines”) and all applicable development standards. In addition, SD-19 requires that all new construction be reviewed by the French Park Architectural Review Committee (FPARC) for compliance with the “Guidelines”. Pursuant to the Guidelines, all projects must adopt one of the historical architectural styles identified. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 2 –4 SPR 2022-01&2022-02 – 826&830 N. Lacy Street (Habitat for Humanity) May 9, 2022 Page 5 2 6 1 1 Planning staff has reviewed the project for compliance with the Guidelines and all applicable development standards for SD-19. As illustrated in Table 2A and 2B, both proposed residences would meet all required SD-19 development standards, including but not limited to, lot coverage, height, and setbacks. In addition, both residences have adopted an architectural design identified as appropriate within the Guidelines (i.e., Victorian and Craftsman architectural style). Each residence has been designed to be compatible in size, scale, massing, and design to the nearby historic homes and neighborhood. They both maintain architectural standards compatible with the architectural character of the historic district and are each designed to include historically appropriate exterior materials, gable treatments, and architectural massing consistent with existing historic architectural styles found in the area. The overall features and materials for each residence would be architecturally compatible with the Guidelines, as each would include high quality materials that will ensure that the residences age well for the duration of each building’s lifetime. Lastly, the FPARC has reviewed the proposed design and materials for the new residences and submitted comments expressing their support for the proposed residences, as each residence is highly characteristic to the given architectural style. Public Notification and Community Outreach Project notifications were posted, published, and mailed in accordance with City and State regulations. Copies of the public notice, including a 1,000-foot notification radius mop, and the site posting are provided in Exhibit 10. In addition to these measures, representatives of the French Park Neighborhood Associations were contacted to identify any areas of concern due to the proposed request. At the time this report was printed, no issues of concern were raised regarding the proposed applications. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 3/New Construction) because the project consists of the construction limited numbers of new residential structures. Based on this analysis, Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review Nos. 2021-44 and 2021-45 will be filed for this project. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

Lacy Street, within the French Park Historic District Specific Development (SD-19). B. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code (“SAMC”) Section 41-593.3, any use or development of property within an SD district shall be in compliance with the ordinance adopting the specific development plan for such property. C. SAMC Section 41-593.4 requires a review by the Planning Commission of all plans for the purpose of ensuring that buildings, structures, and grounds will be in keeping with the given neighborhood and will not be detrimental to the harmonious development of the City or impair the desirability of investment or occupation in that given neighborhood. D. Section 8 (General Provisions) of the French Park Historic District Specific Development (SD-19) requires that all new construction within the area defined as Historic French Park District (SD-19) must proceed through established review processes. Final approval shall be granted by the Planning Commission. E. Section 8.1 and 8.2 of SD-19 requires that all new projects adopt one of the historical architectural styles of the district which is identified in the “Historic French Park Its Architectural Legacy and Design Guidelines” (“Guidelines”). Moreover, the Planning Commission shall make findings that the proposed new construction complies with the Guidelines. F. The French Park Neighborhood Architectural Review Committee (“FPARC”) has reviewed the proposal and has communicated its support of the project. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 2 –7 Resolution No. 2022-XXX Page 2 of 5 G. On May 9, 2022, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on SPR No. 2022-01. H. The Planning Commission, after considering all of the evidence submitted , finds and determines that the project is in substantial compliance with applicable development standards outlined within the Specific Development Plan No.19 (SD-19) zoning district and the Historic French Park Design Guidelines. Specifically, the Planning Commission finds that the proposed residence would meet all required SD-19 development standards, including but not limited to, lot coverage, height, and setbacks. In addition, the residence has adopted an architectural design identified as appropriate within the Guidelines (i.e., Victorian architectural style). The residence has been designed to be compatible in size, scale, massing, and design to the nearby historic homes and neighborhood. It maintains architectural standards compatible with the architectural character of the historic district and is designed to include historically appropriate exterior materials, gable treatments, and architectural massing consistent with existing his toric architectural styles found in the area. The overall features and materials of the residence would be architecturally compatible with the Guidelines, as it would include high quality materials that will ensure that the residences age well for the duration of the building’s lifetime. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15303 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 3/New Construction) because the project consists of the construction of a new residential structure.

LACY STREET, WITHIN THE FRENCH PARK HISTORIC DISTRICT SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT (SD-19) BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines, and declares as follows: A. Jaymie Fisher, representing Habitat for Humanity of Orange County (“Habitat for Humanity”), on behalf of the City of Santa Ana Housing Authority (Property Owner), is requesting approval of Site Plan Review (SPR) No. 2022-02 to allow the infill construction of a new single-family residence on a vacant lot at 830 N. Lacy Street, within the French Park Historic District Specific Development (SD-19). B. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code (“SAMC”) Section 41-593.3, any use or development of property within an SD district shall be in compliance with the ordinance adopting the specific development plan for such property. C. SAMC Section 41-593.4 requires a review by the Planning Commission of all plans for the purpose of ensuring that buildings, structures, and grounds will be in keeping with the given neighborhood and will not be detrimental to the harmonious development of the City or impair the desirability of investment or occupation in that given neighborhood. D. Section 8 (General Provisions) of the French Park Historic District Specific Development (SD-19) requires that all new construction within the area defined as Historic French Park District (SD-19) must proceed through established review processes. Final approval shall be granted by the Planning Commission. E. Section 8.1 and 8.2 of SD-19 requires that all new projects adopt one of the historical architectural styles of the district which is identified in the “Historic French Park Its Architectural Legacy and Design Guidelines” (“Guidelines”). Moreover, the Planning Commission shall make findings that the proposed new construction complies with the Guidelines. F. The French Park Neighborhood Architectural Review Committee (“FPARC”) has reviewed the proposal and has communicated its support of the project. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 2 –12 Resolution No. 2022-XXX Page 2 of 5 G. On May 9, 2022, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on SPR No. 2022-02. H. The Planning Commission, after considering all of the evidence submitted , finds and determines that the project is in substantial compliance with applicable development standards outlined within the Specific Development Plan No.19 (SD-19) zoning district and the Historic French Park Design Guidelines. Specifically, the Planning Commission finds that the proposed residence would meet all required SD-19 development standards, including but not limited to, lot coverage, height, and setbacks. In addit ion, the residence has adopted an architectural design identified as appropriate within the Guidelines (i.e., Craftsman architectural style). The residence has been designed to be compatible in size, scale, massing, and design to the nearby historic homes and neighborhood. It maintains architectural standards compatible with the architectural character of the historic district and is designed to include historically appropriate exterior materials, gable treatments, and architectural massing consistent with existing historic architectural styles found in the area. The overall features and materials of the residence would be architecturally compatible with the Guidelines, as it would include high quality materials that will ensure that the residences age well for the duration of the building’s lifetime. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15303 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 3/New Construction) because the project consists of the construction of a new residential structure. Based on this analysis, Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review Nos. 2021-44, will be filed for this project. Section 3. The Applicant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, authorized volunteers, and instrumentalities thereof, harmless from any and all claims, demands, lawsuits, writs of mandamus, referendum, and other proceedings (whether legal, equitable, declaratory, administrative or adjudicatory in nature), and alternative dispute resolution procedures (including, but not limited to arbitrations, mediations, and such other procedures), judgments, orders, and decisions (collectively “Actions”), brought against the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof, that challenge, attack, or seek to modify, set aside, void, or annul, any action of, or any permit or approval issued by the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof (including actions approved by the voters of the City) for or concerning the project, whether such Actions are brought under the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning and Zoning Law, the Subdivision Map Act, Code of Civil Procedure sections 1085 or 1094.5, or any other federal, state or local constitution, statute, law, ordinance, charter, rule, regulation, or any decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. It is expressly agreed that the City shall have the right to approve the legal counsel providing the City’s defense, and that Applicant shall reimburse the City for any costs and expenses directly and necessarily incurred by the City in the course of the defense. City shall promptly notify the Applicant of any Action brought and City shall cooperate with Applicant in the defense of the Action. 5/9/2022 Planning Commission 2 –13 Resolution No. 2022-XXX Page 3 of 5 Section 4.
