City of Santa Ana

Historic Resources Commission Staff Report
September 7, 2023
Topic: HPPA No. 2023-08 – The Gilmaker Block (302 W. Fourth Street)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute
a Historic Property Preservation Agreement (Mills Act) with Jeff Pintar, representing 4th
and Broadway OZ SPE, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability, for the property located at 302
West Fourth Street, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager
and City Attorney (Exhibit 1).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Jeff Pintar, representing 4th and Broadway OZ SPE, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability, is
requesting approval to execute a Mills Act Agreement with the City of Santa Ana for an
existing commercial property located at 302 West Fourth Street that is currently listed on
the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties.
DISCUSSION
Project Location and Site Description
The subject property, known as the Gilmaker Block (which is one building addressed as
302-308 ½ West Fourth Street and 324 North Broadway), consists of an existing single-
story 8,863-square-foot commercial building on a zero lot line. The building is an
appropriately rehabilitated example of the brick vernacular commercial style that was
prevalent on smaller commercial buildings in towns across the west (Exhibit 2). The
Gilmaker Block is a contributor to the National Register-listed Downtown Santa Ana
Historic District. The property is also individually listed as No. 244 on the Santa Ana
Register of Historical Properties (“Register”). It was placed on the Register in 2001 and
was categorized as “Key.” Although the resolution and accompanying executive summary
approving the Gilmaker Block as No. 244 on the Register could not be located, the
meeting minutes for the Historic Resources Commission hearing dated March 1, 2001,
approving the Gilmaker Block for listing on the Register, is attached to this report.

Analysis of the Issues
Ordinance No. NS-2382 authorized the Historic Resources Commission to execute
Historic Property Preservation Agreements (HPPA), commonly known as Mills Act
agreements, for eligible properties. The property is listed on the Register and categorized
as Key, making it eligible for a Mills Act Agreement. The agreement provides monetary
incentives to the property owner in the form of a property tax reduction in exchange for
the owner’s voluntary commitment to maintain the property in a good state of repair as
necessary to maintain its character and appearance. Once recorded, the agreement
generates a different valuation method in determining the property’s assessed value,
resulting in tax savings for the owner. Aside from the tax savings, the benefits include:
•Long term preservation of the property and visual improvement to the neighborhood
•Allows for a mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation
•Provides additional incentive for potential buyers to purchase historic structures
•Discourages inappropriate alterations to the property
In 2001, the Historic Resources Commission placed the Gilmaker Block on the Register
and within the “Key” category because of its distinctive architectural style and quality, and
being characteristic of a significant period in the history of the City of Santa Ana.
Character-defining exterior features of the Gilmaker Block that should be preserved
include, but may not be limited to: brick exterior; glazed brick trim; parapet; bay divisions
articulated by piers; and architectural ornamentation.
In May 2023, the property received approval by Santa Ana’s Historic Resources
Commission for an historic exterior modification application (HEMA), HEMA No. 2023-02,
consisting of renovating the existing commercial structure to accommodate three retail
spaces and one restaurant. Additionally, the HEMA included exterior modifications
consisting of a new 4,056-square-foot rooftop addition and 1,632-square-foot rooftop
outdoor seating area with trellis as part of the new restaurant use. All approved exterior
modifications were consistent with the Secretary of Interior Standards (SOIS) for
Rehabilitation. Per the Conditions of Approval for HEMA No. 2023-02, staff will ensure
that the proposed work will be completed in tandem with a qualified historic architect. The
architect shall monitor the site monthly and provide updates to Planning Division staff
during the entire construction period to ensure that the project is executed per the plans
and follows the SOIS. Staff will ensure that all work is completed sensitively and will
maintain the property’s character defining features as part of the Mills Act Agreement for
this property.
Future improvements proposed by the property owner during the initial ten years of the
Mills Act Agreement include all work approved as part of the May 2023 HEMA (interior
and exterior modifications along with rooftop addition with trellis). The full improvement
list, titled Attachment 5 - Proposed Structure Improvements– 302 West Fourth Street, is
attached.

Lastly, the site will be subject to general maintenance and upkeep requirements including,
but not limited to, replacement or restoration of damaged character-defining features,
painting, etc. These improvements will be subject to review and approval by staff. Upon
consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic
Property Preservation Agreement.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines,
the project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15331 of the CEQA
Guidelines (Class 31 – Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation) as these actions
are designed to preserve historic resources. Based on this analysis, a Notice of
Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2023-82, will be filed for this project.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Historic Property Preservation Agreement will reduce the Property Tax revenue
account 01102002-50011 to the City by an estimated $4,123.35 annually, for a period of
not less than ten years.

MILLS ACT AGREEMENT

deteriorate to the point that it no longer meets the standards for a qualified Historic Property, or

any restriction imposed pursuant to this Agreement.
b. If the Historic Property is destroyed by earthquake, fire, flood or other natural
disaster such that in the opinion of the City Building Official more than sixty (60) percent of the
original fabric of the structure must be replaced, this Agreement shall be canceled immediately

is not corrected to the reasonable satisfaction of the City Manager or designee within thirty (30)
days thereafter, or if not corrected within such a reasonable time as may be required to cure the
breach or default, or default cannot be cured within thirty (30) days (provided th at acts to cure
the breach or default may be commenced within thirty (30) days and shall thereafter be diligently
pursued to completion by Owner), then City may, without further notice, declare a default under
the terms of this Agreement and may bring any action necessary to specifically enforce the
obligations of Owner growing out of the terms of this Agreement, apply to any court, state or
federal, for injunctive relief against any violation by Owner or apply for such relief as may be
appropriate.
b. City does not waive any claim of default by the Owner if City does not enforce or
cancel this Agreement. All other remedies at law or in equity which are not otherwise provided
for in this Agreement or in City’s regulations governing historic properties are available to City
to pursue in the event that there is a breach of this Agreement. No waiver by City of any breach
or default under this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other subsequent breach
thereof or default hereunder.

Exhibit C
Exterior work shall be reviewed by the Historic Resources Commission and subject to the U.S.
Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings, as follows:
1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property
which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its
environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose.
2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site
and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any
historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when
possible.
3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own
time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier
appearance shall be discouraged.
4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the
history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment.
These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this
significance shall be recognized and respected.
5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which
characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity.
6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced,
whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material
should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture,
and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features
should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic,
physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the
availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or
structures.
7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means
possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic
building materials shall not be undertaken.
8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological
resources affected by, or adjacent to any project.
9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not
be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant
historical, architectural or cultural material, an such design is compatible with

size, scale, color, material and character of the property, neighborhood, or
environment.
10. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations to structures shall be done in such
a manner that if such additions or alterations need to be removed in the future, the
essential form and integrity of the structure would be unimpaired.

Historic Resources Commission Staff Report

Topic: HRCA No. 2023-17, HRC No. 2023-3, HPPA No. 2023-9 – Geddes-Charlton
House (1908 N. Greenleaf Street)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Adopt a resolution approving Historic Resources Commission Application No. 2023-17
and Historic Register Categorization No. 2023-3 (Exhibit 1).
2. Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council
to execute the attached Mills Act agreement with The Peterson Living Trust Dated August
15, 2003 (Donald and Patrice Peterson), subject to non-substantive changes approved
by the City Manager and City Attorney (Exhibit 2).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Donald and Patrice Peterson are requesting approval to designate an existing Tudor
Revival style residence located at 1908 North Greenleaf Street to the Santa Ana Register
of Historical Properties, as well as approval to execute a Mills Act agreement with the City
of Santa Ana. The property is worthy of local designation as “Key” status because it has
a distinctive architectural style and quality reflective of the Tudor Revival style in Santa
Ana.
DISCUSSION
Project Location and Site Description
The subject property is located on the west side of North Greenleaf Street in the Floral
Park National Register Historic District in Santa Ana. The site contains a 2,130-square-
foot, Tudor Revival style residence and two-story detached accessory building containing
a garage and office, on a 7,685-square-foot residential lot (Exhibit 3).

Analysis of the Issues
Historical Listing
In March 1999, the City Council approved Ordinance No. NS-2363 establishing the
Historic Resources Commission and the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The
Historic Resources Commission may, by resolution and at a noticed public hearing,
designate as a historical property any building or part thereof, object, structure, or site
having importance to the history or architecture of the city in accordance with the criteria
set forth in Section 30-2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC). This project entails
applying the selection criteria established in Chapter 30 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code
(Places of Historical and Architectural Significance) to determine if this structure is eligible
for historic designation to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The first
criterion for selection requires that the structures be 50 or more years old.
The structure identified meets the minimum selection criteria for inclusion on the Santa
Ana Register of Historical Properties pursuant to criteria contained in Section 30-2 of the
Santa Ana Municipal Code, as the structure is 89 years old and is a good example of
period architecture. No known code violations exist on record for this property.
The Geddes-Charlton House is architecturally significant as a representative example of
an intact Tudor Revival style home in Santa Ana. According to City building records, it
was built in 1934 for approximately $5,000, for Dr. Mabel A. Geddes; however, the original
architect and builder are unknown. Dr. Geddes only resided at the property for two years;
she was known as a supervisor of health for Orange County schools, Board member of
the Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) of Santa Ana, and a Chairperson of
Orange County Nutrition Committee. In 1936, she moved out of the subject property and
into a property two houses over, at 1916 Greenleaf Street. By 1937, the subject property
was occupied by W. H. Charlton, until 1939 when City Directories list the property as
vacant. In 1940, L. C. Cameron occupied the residence. In 1941, A. W. Robinson is listed
as the only tenant. From at least 1945 to 1956, the Lautzenhiser family (initials O.V. and
E.C.) lived at 1908 North Greenleaf Street. Later, J.L. Davis owned the property for at
least ten years, from 1960-1970. City Directories from the 1970s were unavailable. In the
1980s, Steve Pivo resided at the property between 1980-1982, with Jeff Pivo listed in
1982. By 1985, Bill McKay is identified as a tenant and in 1986 records show no one living
at the property. From 1987-1996, Dixie and Thomas Denman are the known property
owners. By 1996, the Denman’s sold 1908 North Greenleaf Street to the present-day
owners, Don and Patrice Peterson. No additional information was uncovered regarding
the past owners and tenants.
The Geddes-Charlton House is a one-story, single-family, Tudor Revival Style residence
located on a modestly sized parcel in Floral Park. The asymmetrical residence features
an L-shaped plan with a steeply-pitched cross-gable roof clad in wood shingles with

shallow eaves and exposed rafters. An additional, steeply pitched front gable at the
primary (east) façade projects east from the primary cross-gable, towards North
Greenleaf Street. The exterior of the house is clad in smooth stucco with half-timbering
at the gable end of the two front gables.
The main entrance sits within a porch that is situated below a front gable, supported by
two wooden support posts. The main entrance door, facing south, is composed of a
wooden door with a rectangular panel detail and a wrought iron decorative grill and metal
hardware. Fenestration on the primary (east) façade includes a fixed wood window,
below the eastern-most front gable, with a 20-light muntin pattern. Wood casements with
an 8-light muntin pattern are on either side of the fixed window and are flanked by
decorative wood shutters. Additional multi-light wood casement windows (some with and
without shutters) are situated along the primary (east) façade. The north and south side
façade window pattern is composed of a mix of single and double casement, multi-light
wood windows, and double-hung wood windows. The rear (west) façade features three
double casement multi-light wood windows and one double-hung wood window, along
with a single pedestrian door and a replacement, multi-light, wood sliding door. The attic
at the rear façade features a dormer with two non-original or replacement vinyl hung
windows. All original windows throughout include a prominent wood window sill.
Additional architectural features include two stucco-clad chimneys along the north façade,
a single metal vent under the projecting front gable and two round vents under the primary
front gable, and a metal mail slot adjacent to the primary entrance. The rear yard contains
a two-story accessory building consisting of a detached garage with an office above; a
smaller accessory shed building clad in wood siding with a shake roof, exposed rafters,
a door, and two windows; and a rear pool. The two-story building’s primary (east) façade
is designed with half timbering under the east-facing gable and shutters to match the main
residence. It also includes vinyl casement windows under the primary east gable, which
will be replaced with wood windows as part of a near-term work plan, and multi-light wood
doors. The property is landscaped with a front lawn, stone pathway, small shrubs,
medium and large-sized trees.
Character-defining features of the Geddes-Charlton House include, but may not be limited
to: its wood shake roof; steeply pitched cross-gable roof form with a secondary gable that
projects to the East towards North Greenleaf Street; minimal roof overhang with exposed
rafters; half timbering at both front gable ends at the primary (east) façade; stucco siding;
one stucco-clad chimney at the north side façade (a second chimney was added in 1988
and is therefore not considered a character-defining feature); main entrance door
composed of a wooden door with a rectangular panel detail and a wrought iron decorative
grill and metal hardware; a fixed wood window, below the eastern-most front gable at the
primary facade, with a 20-light muntin pattern, and multi-light wood casement windows
flanked by wood shutters; original fenestration throughout including single and double
casement, multi-light wood windows, and double-hung wood windows; prominent wood

window sill and wood shutters throughout; a single metal vent under the projecting front
gable and two round vents under the primary front gable; a metal mail slot adjacent to the
primary entrance; Hollywood driveway; and front yard lawn with landscaping including
mature trees and shrubs. Because the detached garage is not original, it is considered
compatible to the historic site but is not a character-defining feature.
The Geddes-Charlton House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical
Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Tudor Revival style home in Santa
Ana. The recommended categorization is “Key” because it has a distinctive architectural
style and quality reflective of the Tudor Revival style. This category is reserved for
structures exemplifying greater architectural significance than the “Contributive” category,
in addition to contributing to the overall neighborhood or district within the City of Santa
Ana. The property is worthy of “Key” status due to the building’s Tudor Revival style and
quality craftsmanship which features a steeply-pitched multi-gable roof; half-timbering;
and multi-light wood windows that are both fixed and casement style, among other original
features.
Mills Act Agreement
Ordinance No. NS-2382 authorized the Historic Resources Commission to execute
Historic Property Preservation Agreements (HPPA), commonly known as Mills Act
agreements for eligible properties (Exhibit 2). To be eligible for the Mills Act, the property
must be listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The Historic Resources
Commission Application and Historic Register Categorization actions proposed for this
site authorize the listing of the property on the local register. The agreement provides
monetary incentives to the property owner in the form of a property tax reduction in
exchange for the owner’s voluntary commitment to maintain the property in a good state
of repair as necessary to maintain its character and appearance. Once recorded, the
agreement generates a different valuation method in determining the property’s assessed
value, resulting in tax savings for the owner. Aside from the tax savings, the benefits
include:
•Long term preservation of the property and visual improvement to the neighborhood
•Allows for a mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation
•Provides additional incentive for potential buyers to purchase historic structures
•Discourages inappropriate alterations to the property
The property has no identified unauthorized modifications. Upon consideration of the
application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation
Agreement.
Overall, future improvements proposed by the homeowner during the initial ten years of
the Mills Act Agreement include replace two non-original vinyl windows at rear to wood

double-hung windows to match existing, reroof existing wood shake roof with fireproof
wood shake to match existing roof material and design, repaint exterior wood at the
residence and detached garage, along with general on-going maintenance. Staff will
ensure that the proposed work will be done sensitively and will maintain the property’s
character defining features as part of the Mills Act Agreement for this property.
As part of the Mills Act approval process, staff will work with the applicant to ensure that
a bronze plaque is installed honoring and recognizing the structure. The plaque will
include the historic name, address, year built, and local historic register designation.
Lastly, the site will be subject to general maintenance and upkeep requirements including,
but not limited to, replacement or restoration of damaged character-defining features,
landscaping upkeep, painting, etc. The Mills Act also proposes a work plan to replace the
two rear vinyl windows with wood windows, reroof the structure, and repaint the exterior
of the structure, within the first five years of the Mills Act agreement’s term. These
improvements will be subject to review and approval by staff. Upon consideration of the
application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation
Agreement to enable the Mills Act.
Public Notification
The subject site is located within the Floral Park Neighborhood Association. The president
of this Neighborhood Association was notified by mail 10 days prior to this public hearing.
In addition, the project site was 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 500 feet of the project site. At the time of this printing, no
correspondence, either written or electronic, has been received from any members of the
public.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines,
the project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15331 of the CEQA
Guidelines (Class 31 – Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation) as these actions
are designed to preserve historic resources. Based on this analysis, a Notice of
Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2023-78 will be filed for this project.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Historic Property Preservation Agreement will reduce the Property Tax revenue
account 01102002-50011 to the City by an estimated $435.07 annually, for a period of
not less than ten years.

PROPERTY WITHIN THE KEY CATEGORY
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HISTORIC RESOURCES COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The Historic Resources Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby
finds, determines, and declares as follows:
A. On September 7, 2023, the Historic Resources Commission held a duly
noticed public hearing for the placement on the Santa Ana Register of
Historical Properties (Historic Resources Commission Application No.
2023-17) and categorization (Historic Resources Commission
Categorization No. 2023-3) of the Geddes-Charlton House located at 1908
North Greenleaf Street, Santa Ana.
B. The Geddes-Charlton House has distinctive architectural features of the
Tudor Revival style and was built in 1934.
C. The Geddes-Charlton House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register
of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Tudor
Revival style home in Santa Ana. The house displays characteristics of the
Tudor Revival style through its use of steeply pitched multi-gable roof;
primary facade dominated by two prominent front -facing and steeply
pitched gables; decorative half-timbering at gables end; tall, narrow
windows in multiple groups with multi-pane glazing; wood shingle roof;
prominent chimney; among other original features. The recommended
categorization is “Key” because it has a distinctive architectural style and
quality reflective of the Tudor Revival style (Santa Ana Municipal Code,
Section 30-2.2). This category is reserved for structures exemplifying
greater architectural significance than the “Contributive” category, in
addition to contributing to the overall neighborhood or district within the City
of Santa Ana. The property is worthy of “Key” status due to the building’s
Tudor Revival style and quality craftsmanship which features steeply-
pitched multi-gable roof; half-timbering; and multi-light wood windows that
are both fixed and casement style, among other original features.
Character-defining features of the Geddes-Charlton House include, but
may not be limited to: wood shake roof; steeply pitched cross-gable roof

form with a secondary gable that projects to the East towards North
Greenleaf Street; minimal roof overhang with exposed rafters; half timbering
at both front gable ends at the primary (east) façade; stucco siding; one
stucco-clad chimney at the north side façade (a second chimney was added
in 1988 and is therefore not considered a character-defining feature); main
entrance door composed of a wooden door with a rectangula r panel detail
and a wrought iron decorative grill and metal hardware; a fixed wood
window, below the eastern-most front gable at the primary facade, with a
20-light muntin pattern, and multi-light wood casement windows flanked by
wood shutters; original fenestration throughout including single and double
casement, multi-light wood windows, and double-hung wood windows;
prominent wood window sill and wood shutters throughout; a single metal
vent under the projecting front gable and two round vents under the primary
front gable; a metal mail slot adjacent to the primary entrance; Hollywood
driveway; and front yard lawn with landscaping including mature trees and
shrubs. Because the detached garage is not original, it is considered
compatible to the historic site but is not a character-defining feature.

15, 2003.
E. The legal description for the subject property is attached hereto as Exhibit

5. Cancellation.
a. The City, following a duly noticed public hearing by the City Council as set forth
in Government Code Section 50280, et. seq., may cancel this Agreement if it determines that the
Owner have breached any of the conditions of this Agreement, or has allowed the property to
deteriorate to the point that it no longer meets the standards for a qualified Historic Property, or
if the City determines that the Owner have failed to restore or rehabilitate the property in the
manner specified in Section 3 of this Agreement. If a contract is cancelled for these reasons, the
Owner shall pay a cancellation fee to the County Auditor as set forth in Government Code
Section 50286. This cancellation fee shall be a percentage (currently set at twelve and one-half
(12 ½) percent by Government Code Section 50286) of the current fair market value of the
property at the time of the cancellation, as determined by the county assessor, without regard to
any restriction imposed pursuant to this Agreement.
b. If the Historic Property is destroyed by earthquake, fire, flood or other natural
disaster such that in the opinion of the City Building Official more than sixty (60) percent of the
original fabric of the structure must be replaced, this Agreement shall be canceled immediately
because, in effect, the historic value of the structure will have been destroyed. No fee shall be
imposed in the case of destruction by acts of God or natural disaster.
c. If the Historic Property is acquired by eminent domain and the City Council
determines that the acquisition frustrates the purpose of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be
cancelled and no fee imposed, as specified in Government Code Section 50288.
6. Enforcement of Agreement.
a. In lieu of and/or in addition to any provisions to cancel the Agreement as
referenced herein, City may specifically enforce, or enjoin the breach of, the terms of the
Agreement. In the event of a default, under the provisions to cancel the Agreement by Owner,
the City shall give written notice to Owner by registered or certified mail, and if such a violation
is not corrected to the reasonable satisfaction of the City Manager or designee within thirty (30)
days thereafter, or if not corrected within such a reasonable time as may be required to cure the
breach or default, or default cannot be cured within thirty (30) days (provided that acts to cure
the breach or default may be commenced within thirty (30) days and shall thereafter be diligently
pursued to completion by Owner), then City may, without further notice, declare a default under
the terms of this Agreement and may bring any action necessary to specifically enforce the
obligations of Owner growing out of the terms of this Agreement, apply to any court, state or
federal, for injunctive relief against any violation by Owner or apply for such relief as may be
appropriate.
b. City does not waive any claim of default by the Owner if City does not enforce or
cancel this Agreement. All other remedies at law or in equity which are not otherwise provided
for in this Agreement or in City’s regulations governing historic properties are available to City
to pursue in the event that there is a breach of this Agreement. No waiver by City of any breach
or default under this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other subsequent breach
thereof or default hereunder.

CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION C/3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 5S3
Location: Not for Publication Unrestricted
Prehistoric Historic Both
ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Tudor Revival
The Tudor Revival looked to medieval England for its inspiration. Signature features of the style include steeply pitched
gables; decorative half-timbering; arched openings, often Tudor or Gothic in form; asymmetrical arrangements of building
features; tall brick chimneys; and picturesque windows of leaded glass or diamond patterned lights. The more ambitious
examples of the Tudor Revival were executed in brick or even stone; however, stucco over wood frame is quite common
in the forgiving climate of southern California. The Tudor Revival was favored primarily for residential buildings, although
small scale commercial buildings in the style also occur. Originating in the late 19th century, the Tudor Revival was
associated with some Craftsman era building but was most popular during the 1920s and 1930s.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION:
The Geddes-Charlton House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for
embodiment of the distinguishing characteristics of a Tudor Revival style residential building. The recommended
categorization is “Key” because it has a distinctive architectural style and quality reflective of the Tudor Revival style
(Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

The Geddes-Charlton House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Tudor Revival style house in Santa Ana.
According to City building records, it was built in 1934 for approximately $5,000, for Dr. Mabel A. Geddes; however, the
original architect and builder are unknown. Dr. Geddes only resided at the property for two years; she was known as a
supervisor of health for Orange County schools, Board member of the Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) of
Santa Ana, and a Chairperson of Orange County Nutrition Committee. In 1936, she moved out of the subject property and
into the property two houses over, at 1916 Greenleaf Street. By 1937, the subject property was occupied by W. H. Charlton,
until 1939 when City Directories list the property as vacant.

*P3a. Description (continued):
Fenestration on the primary (east) façade includes a fixed wood window, below the eastern-most front gable, with a 20-light
muntin pattern. Wood casements with an 8-light muntin pattern are on either side of the fixed window and are flanked by
decorative wood shutters (Figure 4). Additional multi-light wood casement windows (some with and without shutters) are
situated along the primary (east) façade. The north and south side façade window pattern is composed of a mix of single and
double casement, multi-light wood windows, and double-hung wood windows (Figure 5). The rear (west) façade features
three double casement multi-light wood windows and one double-hung wood window, along with a single pedestrian door and
a replacement, multi-light, wood sliding door. The attic at the rear façade features a dormer with two non-original or
replacement vinyl hung windows (Figure 6). All original windows throughout include a prominent wood window sill. Additional
architectural features include two stucco-clad chimneys along the north façade, a single metal vent under the projecting front
gable and two round vents under the primary front gable, and a metal mail slot adjacent to the primary entrance. The rear
yard contains a two-story accessory building consisting of a detached garage with an office above; a smaller accessory shed
building clad in wood siding with a shake roof, exposed rafters, a door, and two windows; and a rear pool. The two-story
building’s primary (east) façade is designed with half timbering under the east-facing gable and shutters to match the main
residence. It also includes vinyl casement windows under the primary east gable, and multi-light wood doors (Figure 7). The
property is landscaped with a front lawn, stone pathway, small shrubs, medium and large-sized trees.
*B10. Significance (continued):
In 1940, L. C. Cameron occupied the residence. In 1941, A. W. Robinson is listed as the only tenant. From at least 1945 to
1956, the Lautzenhiser family (initials O.V. and E.C.) lived at 1908 North Greenleaf Street. Later, J.L. Davis owned the
property for at least ten years, from 1960-1970. City Directories from the 1970s were unavailable. In the 1980s, Steve Pivo
resided at the property between 1980-1982, with Jeff Pivo listed in 1982. By 1985, Bill McKay is identified as a tenant and in
1986 records show no one living at the property. From 1987-1996, Dixie and Thomas Denman are the known property
owners. By 1996, the Denmans sold 1908 North Greenleaf Street to the present-day owners, Don and Patrice Peterson. No
additional information was uncovered regarding the past owners and tenants.
The Geddes-Charlton House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West
Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of orange, avocado, and walnut trees and
widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981),
credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls,
New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). “Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land.
And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana” (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). The parcel
chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. “When built in the 1920s, the
Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each” (Orange County
Register, September 15, 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and
1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival.
The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa
Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War II, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the
neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue.
In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral
Park. An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa
Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell’s own large, Colonial
Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In 1937, Roy Rodney Russell, joined his father’s firm and by 1945 it was renamed as
Roy Russell and Son. In the early post World War II years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous, smaller,
single-family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style. In the 1950s, low,
horizontal Ranch Style houses completed the growth of Floral Park. Today (2023) Floral Park maintains its identity as the
premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens.
The Geddes-Charlton House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an
intact example of a Tudor Revival style home in Santa Ana. Located in Floral Park, the house cost $5,000 to build in 1934.
The recommended categorization is “Key” because it has a distinctive architectural style and quality reflective of the Tudor
Revival style (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). Character-defining features of the Tudor Revival style exhibited by
the house include its wood shake roof; steeply pitched cross-gable roof form with a secondary gable that projects to the East
towards North Greenleaf Street; minimal roof overhang with exposed rafters; half timbering at both front gable ends at the
primary (east) façade; stucco siding; one stucco-clad chimney at the north side façade (a second chimney was added in 1988
and is therefore not considered a character-defining feature); main entrance door composed of a wooden door with a

rectangular panel detail and a wrought iron decorative grill and metal hardware; a fixed wood window, below the eastern-
most front gable at the primary facade, with a 20-light muntin pattern, and multi-light wood casement windows flanked by
wood shutters; original fenestration throughout including single and double casement, multi-light wood windows, and double-
hung wood windows; prominent wood window sill and wood shutters throughout; a single metal vent under the projecting
front gable and two round vents under the primary front gable; a metal mail slot adjacent to the primary entrance; Hollywood
driveway; and front yard lawn with landscaping including mature trees and shrubs. Because the detached garage is not
original, it is considered compatible to the historic site but is not a character-defining feature.

Exhibit C
Exterior work shall be reviewed by the Historic Resources Commission and subject to the U.S.
Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings, as follows:
1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property
which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its
environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose.
2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site
and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any
historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when
possible.
3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own
time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier
appearance shall be discouraged.
4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the
history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment.
These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this
significance shall be recognized and respected.
5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which
characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity.
6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced,
whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material
should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture,
and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features
should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic,
physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the
availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or
structures.
7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means
possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic
building materials shall not be undertaken.
8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological
resources affected by, or adjacent to any project.

Historic Resources Commission Staff Report
September 7, 2023
Topic: HEMA No. 2023-06 – The W.M. Bradley House (2120 North Heliotrope Drive)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution approving a Certificate of Appropriateness for Historic Exterior
Modification Application No. 2023-06.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Andrew Tea and Candace Lin are requesting approval of Historic Exterior Modification
Application (HEMA) No. 2023-06. Specifically, the request is to allow exterior modifications
consisting of a single-level rear addition to include a new dining room and family room of
approximately 771 square feet (along with providing a new interior connection between the
existing detached bedroom/bathroom to the main house), and interior modifications to
include an interior kitchen remodel/expansion and dining room of approximately 405 square
feet, along with a 90-square-foot trellis at the driveway, for the W.M. Bradley House located
at 2120 North Heliotrope Drive. The property was listed as “Contributive” in 2021 on the
Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties and is a contributor to the National Register-
listed Floral Park Historic District.
DISCUSSION
Project Location and Site Description
The subject property is located on the west side of North Heliotrope Drive in the Floral
Park National Register Historic District in Santa Ana. The General Plan land use
designation for the site is Low Density Residential (LR) and the zoning district is Single
Family Residential (R1). The site contains a 1,806-square-foot, Ranch style residence
and attached garage on a 14,500-square-foot residential lot. The property is known as
the W.M. Bradley House and is a contributor to the National Register-listed Floral Park
Historic District. The property is also individually listed as No. 715 on the Santa Ana
Register of Historical Properties (“Register”). It was placed on the Register in 2021 and
was categorized as “Contributive.”

September 7, 2023

The W.M. Bradley House is a one-story single-family residence on a large parcel, sited
with a deep setback and constructed in a Ranch House style. A detached garage is
located a few feet behind (west of) the north end of the rear (west) elevation of the
residence. The house and garage delineate a reversed "L" -shaped plan, which
embraces a generously sized rear patio. Asymmetrical in design, the house exhibits a
strong horizontal emphasis expressed through a low-pitched, cross-gabled roof with
little or no overhang. The exterior of the house is clad in a combination sand finish
stucco and horizontal wood board siding. The roof treatment defines three sections of
the front (east) façade. In the middle, the entry porch is characterized by a partial width
front porch whose roof is supported by slender, paired posts. The entry also features a
six-panel front door flanked by partial height prismatic glass sidelights. Occupying most
of the façade north of the entry are a series of wood, multi-light windows framed by
shutters. The projecting front gable wing south of the entry is highlighted by a prominent
multi-light window, also framed by shutters. Wood multi-light windows also appear on
the north and south elevations. An exterior brick chimney rises above the roof along the
south elevation.
Alterations to the house include the removal of original wood roof shingles, addition to
the rear of the garage, and in-kind replacement of porch roof support posts along the
front elevation. Other than the relatively minor noted changes, the house appears intact
and is in good condition. The property is landscaped with a lawn, low vegetation and a
long driveway leading towards the rear, detached garage. The rear yard contains a
small circular spa near the rear property line, and a temporary, open-aired metal trellis
near the open patio. A built-in brick planter box is at the southwest gable end, in the rear
yard. Character-defining features of the W.M. Bradley House that should be preserved
include, but may not be limited to: one-story massing and cross-gabled roof, resulting in
an overall horizontality; exterior materials (wood and stucco); partial width front porch
whose roof is supported by slender, paired posts; six-panel front door flanked by partial
height prismatic glass sidelights; multi-light windows and shutters, where present; and
attached brick chimney.
Project Description
The proposed project consists of a new, 771-square-foot rear (west) façade addition to
accommodate a new dining room and family room, along with a new interior connection
between the existing detached bedroom and bathroom to the main house. The interior
remodel will include an interior kitchen and dining room remodel/expansion of
approximately 405 square feet. Additionally, a 90-square-foot, partially open, wood trellis
will be added across the driveway’s width, at the north façade.
The rear addition will require exterior modifications to the west façade consisting of the
removal of three hung wood windows, two glazed pedestrian doors, a rear covered porch
with four porch posts, and an open patio at the rear (west) façade. A single, glazed south-
facing pedestrian door will also be removed from the existing garage workshop space to

allow for the new interior connection. The rear addition will be constructed in place of the
existing covered porch and uncovered patio. The addition would include a new family
room and a newly located dining room, along with a new mud room near the north
façade’s secondary building entrance adjacent to the garage. A new hallway connecting
the two separate building wings will be added between the new family room and the
existing garage workshop. The new family room’s west façade will be designed with four
fully glazed, moveable panels/sliding doors. The panels will slide to the north and will
have the ability to compress into one panel so that the family room can open to the rear
yard. Panel height from the ground to fascia board measures nine feet six inches tall,
with a new built-up roof capped at eleven feet six inches. Two sets of paired, wood-clad
posts (referencing the former porch style) will flank the moveable panels. A single fixed
window that matches the post and panel height, will also reside between each set of
posts. Additionally, the family room addition will be visible from the south (side) façade,
where two sliding panels, one post, and new siding, will be located.
The proposed family room addition will be entirely confined to the rear of the house and
will reside below the main house’s roofline (by approximately two feet), hidden from the
public right-of-way. The new interior connection will require a new roof, which will be cald
in shingles to match the main house and be minimally visible from the north façade near
the garage. The addition’s west and south façades would include new smooth stucco to
compatibly match the existing sand finish stucco siding. New wood fascia board near the
roofline will be a compatible addition to the main building. All new paneled sliding doors,
and fixed sidelights between posts, are proposed to have power coated aluminum frames.
The proposed addition at the rear of the house avoids the most significant and character-
defining features, which are visible at the front (east) façade.
Although the new five foot by twenty-one foot wood trellis, with a height of ten feet six
inches, will be visible from the primary (front) and north (side) facades, it will be placed
81 feet away from the front property line, set back from the main house and near the
garage. Temporary in nature, the trellis will be attached to the north façade over the
centered window but can easily be removed without harming the historic building.
Analysis of the Issues
As proposed, the project will follow the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards (SOIS) 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. Staff has reviewed the proposed
modifications in comparison to the SOIS. The following is a review of the 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.
The project complies with Standard No. 1. The property currently maintains its
historic use as a single-family residence. The use is not proposed to change. The
interior configuration will remain substantially the same with the addition providing
enhanced functionality.
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 subject
property will be retained and preserved. The proposed addition has been designed
to remove as little historic material as possible and will be primarily located on a
secondary, rear façade, where it will not be generally visible from the public right-
of-way. The proposed exterior alterations will not alter the primary east (front)
façade, or any important spatial relationships that characterize the property. Only
a small portion of the new roof will be visible from the north (side) façade; however,
it will match the main house in material and design and be substantially setback
from the front of the building. The rear addition will remove an original covered
porch and an uncovered concrete patio at the rear (west) elevation; however, the
majority of the property’s historic character, including a second covered patio along
the south façade of the north wing, will remain. The addition’s design also reflects
the open nature of a patio and porch with operable glass panels that open into the
rear yard. The new wood trellis will not disrupt the north façade or the driveway as
it will be an open-slat trellis only spanning five feet in width.
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 proposed changes will not create
a false sense of historical development. The proposed addition will read as
contemporary in comparison to the existing single-family Ranch style residence,
which will have a flat roof and new, aluminum-clad sliding panel doors and wood-
clad posts. The addition will be designed to be compatible with the existing scale
and massing of the residence, yet distinct enough to discern that it is a new addition
through the use of new, yet compatible materials and design. Moreover, the
addition will be distinguished through its use of a wider fascia trim board, as well
as tall, sliding doors. Therefore, the architectural treatment will read as
contemporary, not conjectural. The new wood trellis at the north façade will

introduce a new, compatible design to the property that avoids any conjectural
references.
4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right
will be retained and preserved.
The project complies with Standard No. 4. The project will not remove any
significant features that were added over time. The north wing’s existing bedroom,
bathroom, and garage workshop were originally permitted in 1952 as a rumpus
room addition to the detached garage. The project will add a new internal
connection between the 1952 addition and the main house. Although a single,
glazed pedestrian door will be removed from the existing garage workshop, the
1952 addition’s form and massing will not be altered by the new internal
connection, as it will continue to read as a separate north wing of the main house.
5. Distinctive features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of
craftsmanship that characterize a property shall be preserved.
The project complies with Standard No. 5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes,
and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize the
property will be preserved. The project does not propose to remove character-
defining features or materials/finishes along the primary façade. The project is not
readily visible from the public right-of-way and proposes to remove part of the rear
(west) façade (including a rear porch and patio) in order to accommodate a new
family room and a newly located dining room, along with a new mudroom and
hallway connecting the two separate building wings.
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.
Standard 6 does not apply as the proposed project does not deal with issues of
deterioration of existing materials or replacement of existing features.
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.
Standard 7 does not apply as the project will not involve chemical or physical
treatments on the building and will be in full compliance with the Standards.

8. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources
must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken.
Standard 8 does not apply as there are no known archeological resources onsite.
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. The new rear addition and trellis will not
destroy historic materials, features, or spatial relationships that characterize the
property. The majority of the proposed addition is located at the rear (west) façade
in an area that is not visible from the public right-of-way as below the existing
roofline. Important spatial relationships characterizing the Ranch architectural style
will not be disturbed as the addition is positioned to the rear of the existing house.
The trellis, whose placement will be subordinate to the main house, will be placed
far away from the front property line, with some visibility from the east and north
facades. Although one porch and one patio will be removed at the rear, an existing
covered porch will remain along the north wing at the rear, and the primary (east)
façade’s front porch and entire façade will be unaltered.
The materials of the new addition will be differentiated from the original building,
as it will incorporate nine-and-a-half-foot-tall glass panels with aluminum mental
frames. However, the addition’s design and material will be compatibly designed
to reflect an open patio style with tall, fully glazed sliding doors that can open to
the rear yard and wood-clad posts to reference the covered porch posts. New
smooth stucco siding will reflect the existing sand stucco with a smoother finish to
differentiate the old from new. Notably, the new built-up roof design will be distinct
from the original shingle-clad gable roof; however, it will not be visible from any
façade. Although a new roof will be added over the new internal connection near
the garage, only a small portion of the existing roof will be altered to accommodate
the addition and the new roof will match the existing shingle style. The trellis’ wood
material shall compatibly reference the Ranch style’s wood features.
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 proposed project is considered
generally reversible, as it does not remove essential aspects of the building’s form
and materials. The proposed addition will be located in the rear of the house, where
it is not generally visible from the public right-of-way, and avoids the most

significant and character-defining features. The essential form of the house and
the vast majority of its historic materials will remain unimpaired. Although the trellis
will be visible from the primary and north facades, it is temporary in nature and can
be removed without harming the historic building.
In conclusion, staff has determined that the project complies with The Secretary of the
Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Specifically, the analysis indicates that the proposed
rear addition will be compatible and consistent with the existing architectural elements that
reflect the original Ranch style architecture while being mindful not to disturb the historic
materials that characterize the property. By localizing the scope of work so that the addition
is setback from the primary facades while maintaining a smaller massing than the historic
building, and by differentiating the new work from the old, the property will maintain its
historic and character-defining features. Most importantly, due to the additive nature, the
rear addition will allow for the option for it to be removed in such a way that the essential
form and integrity of the historic property and its environment will be unimpaired.
The role of the Historic Resources Commission is to issue a Certificate of Appropriateness
upon finding that the proposed modifications do not substantially change the character and
integrity of the historic properties per Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30-6, meet the
Secretary of Interior’s Standards per CEQA and the City’s Certified Local Government
agreement with the State of California. Staff finds that the historic exterior modification
application meets the necessary criteria to be awarded a Certificate of Appropriateness and
should be approved. It is also recommended that staff approve the exact materials and
finishes to be used prior to installation to ensure quality and compatibility.

A RESOLUTION OF THE HISTORIC RESOURCES
COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING
THE CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS FOR THE
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2120 NORTH HELIOTROPE
DRIVE (HISTORIC EXTERIOR MODIFICATION
APPLICATION NO. 2023-06)
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HISTORIC RESOURCES COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The Historic Resources Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby
finds, determines and declares as follows:
A. Allan Tea and Candace Lin (“Applicants”) are requesting approval of
Historic Exterior Modification Application No. 2023-06 to allow exterior
modifications to the property at 2120 North Heliotrope Drive, historically
known as the W.M. Bradley House.
B. The legal owners of the property are Allan Tea and Candace Lin, As Co-
Trustees of the Tea Living Trust, U/A Dated 8/31/2021.
C. The legal description for the subject property is attached hereto as Exhibit
A and incorporated by this reference as though fully set forth herein.
D. The W.M. Bradley House is individually listed as No. 715 on the Santa Ana
Register of Historical Properties and categorized as “Contributive” in 2021.
A. The W.M. Bradley House was originally built in 1950 and is architecturally
significant as a Ranch style residence. Character-defining exterior features
of the W.M. Bradley House that should be preserved include, but may not
be limited to, one-story massing and cross-gabled roof, resulting in an
overall horizontality; exterior materials (wood and stucco); partial width front
porch whose roof is supported by slender, paired posts; six-panel front door
flanked by partial height prismatic glass sidelights; multi -light windows and
shutters, where present; and attached brick chimney.
B. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30-6, no exterior physical
modifications, other than those identified by the Historic Resources
Commission for administrative approval by city staff, shall be permitted with
respect to a historic structure until the Historic Resources Commission
approves such request at a duly noticed public hearing and issues a
certificate of appropriateness. The Historic Resources Commission shall
issue the certificate of appropriateness upon finding that the proposed
modification(s) does not substantially change the character and integrity of
the historic property.

GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383
Resolution No. 2023-XXX
Page 2 of 9
C. The proposed exterior modifications to the three-bedroom, single-story
residence include a new, 771-square-foot rear (west) façade addition to
accommodate a new dining room and family room, along with a new interior
connection between the existing detached bedroom and bathroom to the
main house. The interior remodel will include an interior kitchen and dining
room remodel/expansion of approximately 405 square feet. Additionally, a
90-square-foot, partially open, wood trellis will be added across the
driveway’s width, at the north façade.
D. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30 -6, the Historic
Resources Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on September 7,
2023, for the request for exterior modifications to the W.M. Bradley House.
E. Since the property is deemed a historic structure, all exterior modifications
are required to meet the Secretary of Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.
1. The following Secretary of Interior’s Standards are applicable:
i. The project complies with Standard No. 1. The property
currently maintains its historic use as a single-family
residence. The use is not proposed to change. The interior
configuration will remain substantially the same with the
addition providing enhanced functionality.
ii. The project complies with Standard No. 2. The historic
character of the subject property will be retained and
preserved. The proposed addition has been designed to
remove as little historic material as possible and will be
primarily located on a secondary, rear façade, where it will not
be generally visible from the public right-of-way. The
proposed exterior alterations will not alter the primary east
(front) façade, or any important spatial relationships that
characterize the property. Only a small portion of the new roof
will be visible from the north (side) façade; however, it will
match the main house in material and design and be
substantially setback from the front of the building. The rear
addition will remove an original covered porch and an
uncovered concrete patio at the rear (west) ele vation;
however, the majority of the property’s historic character,
including a second covered patio along the south façade of
the north wing, will remain. The addition’s design also reflects
the open nature of a patio and porch with operable glass
panels that open into the rear yard. The new wood trellis will
not disrupt the north façade or the driveway as it will be an
open-slat trellis only spanning five feet in width.
iii. The project complies with Standard No. 3. The proposed
changes will not create a false sense of historical
FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO
GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383
Resolution No. 2023-XXX
Page 3 of 9
development. The proposed addition will read as
contemporary in comparison to the existing single-family
Ranch style residence, which will have a flat roof and new,
aluminum-clad sliding panel doors and wood-clad posts. The
addition will be designed to be compatible with the existing
scale and massing of the residence, yet distinct enough to
discern that it is a new addition through the use of new, yet
compatible materials and design. Moreover, the addition will
be distinguished through its use of a wider fascia trim board,
as well as tall, sliding doors. Therefore, the architectural
treatment will read as contemporary, not conjectural. The new
wood trellis at the north façade will introduce a new,
compatible design to the property that avoids any conjectural
references.
iv. The project complies with Standard No. 4. The project will not
remove any significant features that were added over time.
The north wing’s existing bedroom, bathroom, and garage
workshop were originally permitted in 1952 as a rumpus room
addition to the detached garage. The project will add a new
internal connection between the 1952 addition and the main
house. Although a single, glazed pedestrian door will be
removed from the existing garage workshop, the 1952
addition’s form and massing will not be altered by the new
internal connection, as it will continue to read as a separate
north wing of the main house.
v. The project complies with Standard No. 5. Distinctive
materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or
examples of craftsmanship that characterize the property will
be preserved. The project does not propose to remove
character-defining features or materials/finishes along the
primary façade. The project is not readily visible from the
public right-of-way and proposes to remove part of the rear
(west) façade (including a rear porch and patio) in order to
accommodate a new family room and a newly located dining
room, along with a new mudroom and hallway connecting the
two separate building wings.
vi. The project complies with Standard No. 9. The new rear
addition and trellis will not destroy historic materials, features,
or spatial relationships that characterize the property. The
majority of the proposed addition is located at the rear (west)
façade in an area that is not visible from the public right-of-
way as below the existing roofline. Important spatial
relationships characterizing the Ranch architectural style will
FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO
GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383

not be disturbed as the addition is positioned to the rear of the
existing house. The trellis, whose placement will be
subordinate to the main house, will be placed far away from
the front property line, with some visibility from the east and
north facades. Although one porch and one patio will be
removed at the rear, an existing covered porch will remain
along the north wing at the rear, and the primary (east)
façade’s front porch and entire façade will be unaltered.
The materials of the new addition will be differentiated from
the original building, as it will incorporate nine-and-a-half-foot-
tall glass panels with aluminum mental frames. However, the
addition’s design and material will be compatibly designed to
reflect an open patio style with tall, fully glazed sliding doors
that can open to the rear yard and wood-clad posts to
reference the covered porch posts. New smooth stucco siding
will reflect the existing sand stucco with a smoother finish to
differentiate the old from new. Notably, the new built-up roof
design will be distinct from the original shingle-clad gable roof;
however, it will not be visible from any façade. Although a
new roof will be added over the new internal connection near
the garage, only a small portion of the existing roof will be
altered to accommodate the addition and the new roof will
match the existing shingle style. The trellis’ wood material
shall compatibly reference the Ranch style’s wood features.
vii. The project complies with Standard No. 10. The proposed
project is considered generally reversible, as it does not
remove essential aspects of the building’s form and materials.
The proposed addition will be located in the rear of the house,
where it is not generally visible from the public right-of-way,
and avoids the most significant and character-defining
features. The essential form of the house and the vast majority
of its historic materials will remain unimpaired. Although the
trellis will be visible from the primary and north facades, it is
temporary in nature and can be removed without harming the
historic building.
viii. Standards 6-8 are not applicable. No features of this
description would be affected by this Project.
Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the
recommended action is exempt from further review under Section 15331, Class 31, as
this action is designed in a manner consistent with the Secretary of Interior’s Standards.
Categorical Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2023-85 will be filed for this project.

ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Ranch House
Widely published in Sunset and House Beautiful magazines, the Ranch House dominated post-World War II residential
expansion and represented the most popular house form in the United States from the 1950s through 1970s. The Ranch
House originated in the 1930’s designs of Southern California architect Cliff May, who sought to reinvent the West’s
vernacular housing traditions by combining the form and massing of the traditional ranch house with a modernist’s
concern for informality, expressed in materials and plan, and indoor-outdoor integration.
While the style includes several variants, a basic set of character-defining features applies to most examples. In form and
massing, the style evokes a sprawling ranch that developed over time, with a central block extended by wings of varying
roof heights. Generally L-shaped or U-shaped in plan, the Ranch House typically has a one-story profile with strong
horizontal emphasis expressed through a low pitched or flat roof with wide overhanging eaves. Asymmetrical in design,
the Ranch House is often sheathed in and accented with rustic materials such as board-and-batten siding, high brick
foundations, art stone, and wood shake roofs. Indoor-outdoor integration is achieved through the use of recessed or
extended porches, set low to the ground, and the generous use of large picture, ribbon, or corner windows. Window
detailing can include wood frames, decorative shutters, and diamond-patterned muntins. Ornamentation includes
rusticated elements, such as carved porch supports and exposed rafters, uneven rakes and flared eaves, and faux dove
cotes and bird houses.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION:
The W.M. Bradley House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as simple
but representative example of the Ranch style in Santa Ana, designed and constructed by notable local builder, Allison
Honer. The recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it contributes to the overall character and history of
Floral Park and is a representative example of Ranch style residential architecture in Santa Ana during the population and
building boom that followed World War II (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

Located in Floral Park, the W.M. Bradley House is a one-story single-family residence on a large parcel, sited with a deep
setback and constructed in a Ranch House style. A detached garage is located a few feet behind (west of) the north end of the
rear (west) elevation of the residence. The house and garage delineate a reversed "L" -shaped plan, which embraces a
generously sized rear patio. Asymmetrical in design, the house exhibits a strong horizontal emphasis expressed through a low-
pitched, cross-gabled roof with little or no overhang. The exterior of the house is clad in a combination smooth stucco and
horizontal wood board siding. The roof treatment defines three sections of the front (east) façade. In the middle, the entry porch
is characterized by a partial width front porch whose roof is supported by slender, paired posts. The entry also features a six-
panel front door flanked by partial height prismatic glass sidelights. Occupying most of the façade north of the entry are a series
of wood, multi-light windows framed by shutters. The projecting front gable wing south of the entry is highlighted by a prominent
multi-light window, also framed by shutters. Wood multi-light windows also appear on the north and south elevations. An exterior
brick chimney rises above the roof along the south elevation. Alterations to the house include the removal of original wood roof
shingles, addition to the rear of the garage, and in-kind replacement of porch roof support posts along the front elevation. Other
than the relatively minor noted changes, the house appears intact and is in good condition. The property is landscaped with a
lawn, low vegetation and a long driveway leading towards the rear, detached garage.

The W.M. Bradley House is architecturally significant as as a simple but representative example of the Ranch style in Santa
Ana. It was built in 1950 by prominent developer and builder Allison Honer, the subdivider of Floral Park. The house was first
sold to W.M. Bradley, a long time Santa Ana resident who was married to Jane W. Bradley. Mr. and Mrs. Bradley resided on
the property from 1950 to 1979. According to City directories, the property remained vacant for several years after. Since then,
the W.M. Bradley House has been occupied by various owners until the current homeowners purchased the home in 2020.

*B10. Significance (continued):
Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as
Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The civic and commercial core of the community was centered around the intersection of
Main and Fourth Streets. Stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad and incorporation as a city in 1886, and selection
as the seat of the newly created County of Orange in 1889, the city grew outwards, with residential neighborhoods developing
to the north, south, and east of the city center. Agricultural uses predominated in the outlying areas, with cultivated fields and
orchards dotted with widely scattered farmhouses.
The W.M. Bradley House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West
Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of oranges, avocados, and walnuts and
widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), credited
as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in
1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). “Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land. And that month,
he began building custom homes in Santa Ana” (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). The parcel chosen became
the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. “When built in the 1920s, the Floral Park homes
were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each” (Orange County Register, September 15,
1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and 1930s and Floral Park
showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival. The Allison Honer
Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa Ana City Hall, the El
Toro Marine Base during World War II, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the neighborhood he had helped
to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue.
In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral Park.
An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa Clara
Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell’s own large, Colonial Revival
mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In the early post World War II years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous,
smaller, single-family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, they were mostly revival in style. In the 1950s,
low, horizontal Ranch Style houses completed the growth of Floral Park. Today (2021), Floral Park maintains its identity as the
premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens.
The W.M. Bradley House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as simple but
representative example of the Ranch style in Santa Ana, designed and constructed by notable local builder, Allison Honer. The
recommended categorization is “Contributive” because it contributes to the overall character and history of Floral Park and is
a representative example of Ranch style residential architecture in Santa Ana during the population and building boom that
followed World War II (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). Character-defining features of the W.M. Bradley House that
should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: one-story massing and cross-gabled roof, resulting in an overall
horizontality; exterior materials (wood and stucco); partial width front porch whose roof is supported by slender, paired posts;
six-panel front door flanked by partial height prismatic glass sidelights; multi-light windows and shutters, where present; and
attached brick chimney.
