ADDRESS 2117 Greenleaf Street CITY Santa Ana ZIP 92707 ORANGE COUNTY YEAR BUILT 1925 LOCAL REGISTER CATEGORY: Contributive HISTORIC DISTRICT I N/A NEIGHBORHOOD Floral Park CALIFORNIA REGISTER CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION C/3 CALIFORNIA REGISTER STATUS CODE 5S3 Location: ❑ Not for Publication ® Unrestricted ❑ Prehistoric ® Historic ❑ Both ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Tudor Revival The Tudor Revival looked to medieval England for its inspiration.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 E.A. Noe 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 "Contributive" because it is a good example of the style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood. (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3).

Noe House consists of a one-story, single-family residence and detached garage constructed in a Tudor Revival style (Figure 1). The parcel is bounded on the west by North Greenleaf Street and on the north, south, and east by private property. The one-story residence has an irregular plan and a concrete foundation. The roof is cross-gabled and clad in concrete tiles and generally has broad, closed eaves with exposed beams. Exterior walls are sheathed primarily in brick, with stucco applied to the gables and rear elevation. Facing North Greenleaf Street to the west, the asymmetrical main fagade is characterized by a wing-and-gable form and a recessed porch sheltered by an extension of the roof and an uncovered concrete patio enclosed by a brick-clad pony wall.

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1925 Property Type: Single-family residence Applicable Criteria: C13 (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme,period,and geographic scope. Also address integrity) The E.A. Noe House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Tudor Revival house in Santa Ana. The original building permit indicates the property was constructed in 1925 with a residence and a detached garage at a cost of $5,000.00. The original building permit does not identify an architect or contractor, though a 1925 newspaper article identified Noe as the general contractor of the property (The Register 1925). The article described the property as a `residence and garage, brick veneer, shingle and comp. roof" (The Register 1925). Newspapers identify Noe working as a contractor in Santa Ana since circa 1914 constructing mostly single- and multi-family residences in various styles popular at the time including Craftsman, Spanish Revival, and Tudor Revival(The Register 1914). He constructed the adjacent properties to the subject property on Greenleaf Street including 2109 and 2121 Greenleaf Street and was listed in a 1919 The Register newspaper article as a "Builder of Fine Bungalows, Residences, and Garages, 2109 Greenleaf St."(The Register 1919 and 1925).

Description (continued): Secondary facades generally feature brick walls punctuated by one-over-one double hung, wood sash windows and a steel frame bay window with small casement windows on the north and south sides (Figure 4). The property has an east-trending extension with a flat roof and stucco exterior. The extension has wood sash fixed pane and casement windows, one of which is covered by an awning. The south elevation features a second entrance with a wood paneled door and window accessible by concrete steps and a small concrete patio enclosed by concrete pony walls;the entrance sits under an awning(Figure 5). The east elevation features two small, fixed pane windows, a small bay window with a hipped roof clad in wood shake singles with a central wood frame fixed pane window with six lites flanked by casement windows with three lites, and a set of wood French doors accessed by brick steps and covered by an open lattice patio cover added in 1990(Figure 6 and 7). At the rear, western end of the property is a detached garage constructed in 1988. Leading to the garage is a former Hollywood driveway not completely paved with concrete. The two-story garage is rectangular in plan on a concrete foundation and capped with a steeply pitched front gabled roof clad in composition shingles with enclosed eaves (Figure 8). The exterior is clad in stucco and brick. On the west, primary fagade are two large openings with metal roll-up garage doors, an entrance with a glazed wood door, and two vinyl sash windows at the second floor. The north elevation has a second entrance with a paneled door and vinyl sash window. Landscaping at the property includes front and back lawns, mature trees, and flowering and non-flowering shrubs. *1310. Significance(continued): Noe lived on the property until 1926 when Joseph B. and Virginia H. Head purchased the property(The Register 1926a and 1926b). Shortly after purchasing the property, Virginia passed away, but Joseph and their two children, David and Frances, and his second wife, Lula, and their daughter Mary Jean, lived at the property until circa 1962. Born in Kansas, Joseph moved to Orange County in 1905 and eventually owned Arrowhead Laundry at 61 and Porter Streets for 15 years (The Register 1962). David fought in World War 11 in the 11 t'Airborne Division as a paratrooper, and Joseph's second wife Lula taught at Logan School for 20 years before retiring in 1946(The Register 1945 and 1946). During Joseph's ownership of the property, he altered the property twice: in 1933 he applied for a permit to rebuild the chimney and in 1941 to re-roof the residence (City of Santa Ana 1933 and 1941, The Register 1933). In 1983, M.A. McAlpin owned the property, but no additional information was identified on McAlpin (Los Angeles Times 1983). The current owners, Travis Beck Allen-Walter and Charles Reuben Allen-Walter, acquired the property from Fili Moala and Jordan Moala, husband and wife, in 2024. The E.A. Noe 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, 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. `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 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 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 E/ Toro Marine Base during World War Il, 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 /l 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, Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens. The E.A. Noe House is a contributor to the Floral Park Historic District. Additionally, the E.A. Noe 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 was constructed in 1925. The recommended categorization is "Contributive"because it contributes to the overall character and history of its neighborhood and is a good example of period architecture (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3).

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.

Noe House (2117 N. Greenleaf Street) RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. Adopt a resolution approving Historic Resources Commission Application No. 2025- 15 and Historic Register Categorization No. 2026-2; and 2. Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute the attached Mills Act agreement with Charles Allen-Walter and Travis Allen- Walter, for the property located at 2117 N. Greenleaf Street, subject to non- substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Charles Allen-Walter and Travis Allen-Walter are requesting approval to designate an existing Tudor Revival-style residence located at 2117 N. Greenleaf Street on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties ("Register"), as well as approval to execute a Mills Act agreement with the City of Santa Ana. The property, which is a contributing property to the Floral Park National Register Historic District, qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Tudor Revival- style house. It is worthy of"Contributive" categorization as it has a distinctive architectural style and quality reflective of the Tudor Revival style, including its asymmetrical main (west) facade composition; brick and stucco siding; steeply pitched cross-gabled roof form; closed eaves with exposed beams; historic glazed wood front door; recessed front porch and uncovered front patio; tripartite window on the west facade; and 1-over-1 wood- sash hung windows throughout. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located mid-block with Greenleaf Street to the west in the Floral Park neighborhood in Santa Ana. The site contains a 1,797-square-foot, Tudor Revival- style residence and detached garage on an approximately 10,800-square-foot residential lot (Exhibits 3 and 4). HRCA No. 2025-15, HRC No. 2026-2, HPPA No. 2026-2 — The E.A. Noe House (2117 N. Greenleaf Street) March 5, 2026 Page 2 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 SAMC (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 selection criteria for inclusion on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties pursuant to criteria contained in Section 30-2 of the SAMC, as the structure is 101 years old and is a sound example of period architecture. No known code violations exist on record for this property. The E.A. Noe House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Tudor Revival- style house in Santa Ana. The original building permit indicates the property was constructed in 1925 with a residence and a detached garage at a cost of $5,000. The original building permit does not identify an architect or contractor, though a 1925 newspaper article identified Noe as the general contractor of the property (The Register 1925). The article described the property as a "residence and garage, brick veneer, shingle and comp. roof' (The Register 1925). Newspapers identify Noe working as a contractor in Santa Ana since circa 1914 constructing mostly single- and multi-family residences in various styles popular at the time including Craftsman, Spanish Revival, and Tudor Revival (The Register 1914). He constructed the adjacent properties to the subject property on Greenleaf Street including 2109 and 2121 N. Greenleaf Street and was listed in a 1919 The Register newspaper article as a "Builder of Fine Bungalows, Residences, and Garages, 2109 Greenleaf St." (The Register 1919 and 1925). Noe lived on the property until 1926 when Joseph B. and Virginia H. Head purchased the property that same year (The Register 1926a and 1926b). Shortly after purchasing the property, Virginia passed away, but Joseph and their two children, David and Frances, and his second wife, Lula, and their daughter Mary Jean, lived at the property until circa 1962. Born in Kansas, Joseph moved to Orange County in 1905 and eventually owned Arrowhead Laundry at 6th and Porter Streets for 15 years (The Register 1962). David fought in World War II in the 11th Airborne Division as a paratrooper, and Joseph's second wife Lula taught at Logan School for 20 years before retiring in 1946 (The Register 1945 and 1946). During Joseph's ownership of the property, he altered the property twice: in HRCA No. 2025-15, HRC No. 2026-2, HPPA No. 2026-2 — The E.A. Noe House (2117 N. Greenleaf Street) March 5, 2026 Page 3 1933 he applied for a permit to rebuild the chimney and in 1941 to re-roof the residence (City of Santa Ana 1933 and 1941, The Register 1933). In 1983, M.A. McAlpin owned the property, but no additional information was identified on McAlpin (Los Angeles Times 1983). The current owners, Travis Beck Allen-Walter and Charles Reuben Allen-Walter, acquired the property from Fili Moala and Jordan Moala, husband and wife, in 2024. In 2023, the property was added to the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing property to the Floral Park National Register Historic District. Located on a mid-block parcel in the Floral Park neighborhood, the E.A. Noe House consists of a one-story, single-family residence and detached garage constructed in a Tudor Revival style. The parcel is bounded on the west by North Greenleaf Street and on the north, south, and east by private property. The one-story residence has an irregular plan and a concrete foundation. The roof is cross-gabled and clad in concrete tiles and generally has broad, closed eaves with exposed beams. Exterior walls sheathed in brick throughout and stucco within the gables and rear elevation. Facing North Greenleaf Street to the west, the asymmetrical main fagade is characterized by a wing-and-gable form and a recessed porch sheltered by an extension of the roof and an uncovered concrete patio enclosed by a brick-clad pony wall. The main entrance has a solid wood door with a single pane of glass at the center. Windows on the main elevation include a large wood frame tripartite window with a central fixed pane flanked by two six-over-one double hung sash windows with divided light transoms and a second window within the front gable with a wood frame fixed pane and six panes of glass. Additionally, the west fagade features two sets of wood frame French doors which open to the concrete patio. Secondary facades generally feature brick walls punctuated by one-over-one wood frame double hung sash windows and a steel frame bay window with small casement windows on the north and south sides. The property has an east-trending extension with a flat roof and stucco exterior. The extension has wood sash fixed pane and casement windows, one of which is covered by an awning. The south elevation features a second entrance with a wood paneled door and sash window accessible by concrete steps and a small concrete patio enclosed by concrete pone walls; the entrance sits under an awning. The east elevation features two small, fixed pane windows, a small bay window with a hipped roof clad in wood shake shingles with a central wood frame fixed pane window with six lites flanked by casement windows with three lites, and a set of wood frame French doors accessed by brick steps and covered by an open lattice patio cover added in 1990. At the rear, western end of the property is a detached garage constructed in 1988. The two-story garage is rectangular in plan on a concrete foundation and capped with a steeply pitched front gabled roof clad in composition shingles with enclosed eaves. The exterior is clad in stucco and brick. On the west, primary fagade are two large openings with metal roll-up garage doors, an entrance with a glazed wood frame door, and two HRCA No. 2025-15, HRC No. 2026-2, HPPA No. 2026-2 — The E.A. Noe House (2117 N. Greenleaf Street) March 5, 2026 Page 4 vinyl sash windows at the second floor. The north elevation has a second entrance with a paneled door and vinyl sash window. Landscaping at the property includes front and back lawns, mature trees, and flowering and non-flowering shrubs. Character-defining features of the Tudor Revival style exhibited by the house include, but are not necessarily limited to, its asymmetrical main (west)facade composition; brick and stucco siding; steeply pitched cross-gabled roof form; closed eaves with exposed beams; historic glazed wood front door; recessed front porch and uncovered front patio; tripartite window on the west facade; and one-over-one wood-sash hung windows throughout. The E.A. Noe 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 Contributive because it contributes to the overall character and history of its neighborhood and is a good example of period architecture (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). 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 • A mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation • Incentives for potential buyers to purchase historic structures • Discouraging 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 subject to a completion of future improvements as described in an attached Work Plan. Overall, future improvements (Work Plan) proposed by the homeowner and Planning Division staff during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include the following: 1) assess paint and stucco siding for cracking and other damage; replace or repair in- HRCA No. 2025-15, HRC No. 2026-2, HPPA No. 2026-2 — The E.A. Noe House (2117 N. Greenleaf Street) March 5, 2026 Page 5 kind with staff approval; 2) update driveway gate columns to match house stucco and Tudor Revival style with staff approval; 3) inspect and repair chimney; 4) assess condition of windows and French doors; replace in-kind, as necessary with staff approval; 5) trim vegetation on street-facing sides of the property to maintain a clear view of the property from the sidewalk; 6) assess condition of hardscaping, including walkways, steps, porches, and other areas, and repair or replace with staff approval; and 7) inspect roof and replace in-kind if needed, with staff approval; assess condition of exposed beams and repair as necessary, with staff approval. 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. 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.

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 E.A. Noe 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 "Contributive" because it is a good example of the style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood.

Also address integrity) The E.A. Noe House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Tudor Revival house in Santa Ana. The original building permit indicates the property was constructed in 1925 with a residence and a detached garage at a cost of $5,000.00. The original building permit does not identify an architect or contractor, though a 1925 newspaper article identified Noe as the general contractor of the property (The Repister 1925). The article described the property as a `residence and garage, brick veneer, shingle and comp. roof" (The Register 1925). Newspapers identify Noe working as a contractor in Santa Ana since circa 1914 constructing mostly single- and multi-family residences in various styles popular at the time including Craftsman, Spanish Revival, and Tudor Revival(The Re-gister 1914). He constructed the adjacent properties to the subject property on Greenleaf Street including 2109 and 2121 Greenleaf Street and was listed in a 1919 The Repister newspaper article as a "Builder of Fine Bungalows, Residences, and Garages, 2109 Greenleaf St."(The Repister 1919 and 1925).

Description (continued): Secondary facades generally feature brick walls punctuated by one-over-one double hung, wood sash windows and a steel frame bay window with small casement windows on the north and south sides (Figure 4). The property has an east-trending extension with a flat roof and stucco exterior. The extension has wood sash fixed pane and casement windows, one of which is covered by an awning. The south elevation features a second entrance with a wood paneled door and window accessible by concrete steps and a small concrete patio enclosed by concrete pony walls;the entrance sits under an awning (Figure 5). The east elevation features two small, fixed pane windows, a small bay window with a hipped roof clad in wood shake singles with a central wood frame fixed pane window with six lites flanked by casement windows with three lites, and a set of wood French doors accessed by brick steps and covered by an open lattice patio cover added in 1990(Figure 6 and 7). At the rear, western end of the property is a detached garage constructed in 1988. Leading to the garage is a former Hollywood driveway not completely paved with concrete. The two-story garage is rectangular in plan on a concrete foundation and capped with a steeply pitched front gabled roof clad in composition shingles with enclosed eaves (Figure 8). The exterior is clad in stucco and brick. On the west, primary facade are two large openings with metal roll-up garage doors, an entrance with a glazed wood door, and two vinyl sash windows at the second floor. The north elevation has a second entrance with a paneled door and vinyl sash window. Landscaping at the property includes front and back lawns, mature trees, and flowering and non-flowering shrubs. *1310. Significance(continued): Noe lived on the property until 1926 when Joseph B. and Virginia H. Head purchased the property(The Register 1926a and 1926b). Shortly after purchasing the property, Virginia passed away, but Joseph and their two children, David and Frances, and his second wife, Lula, and their daughter Mary Jean, lived at the property until circa 1962. Born in Kansas, Joseph moved to Orange County in 1905 and eventually owned Arrowhead Laundry at 61 and Porter Streets for 15 years (The Register 1962). David fought in World War It in the 11 t'Airborne Division as a paratrooper, and Joseph's second wife Lula taught at Logan School for 20 years before retiring in 1946 (The Register 1945 and 1946). During Joseph's ownership of the property, he altered the property twice: in 1933 he applied for a permit to rebuild the chimney and in 1941 to re-roof the residence (City of Santa Ana 1933 and 1941, The Register 1933). In 1983, M.A. McAlpin owned the property, but no additional information was identified on McAlpin (Los Angeles Times 1983). The current owners, Travis Beck Allen-Walter and Charles Reuben Allen-Walter, acquired the property from Fili Moala and Jordan Moala, husband and wife, in 2024. The E.A. Noe 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, 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. `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 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 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 Il, 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 /I 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, Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens. The E.A. Noe House is a contributor to the Floral Park Historic District. Additionally, the E.A. Noe 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 was constructed in 1925. The recommended categorization is "Contributive"because it contributes to the overall character and history of its neighborhood and is a good example of period architecture (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). Character-defining features of the house's original 1925 Tudor Revival-style construction include, but are not necessarily limited to, its asymmetrical main (west) facade composition;brick and stucco siding; steeply DPR 523L State of California-The Resources Agency Primary# DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION HRI# CONTINUATION SHEET Trinomial Page 4 of 6 Resource Name: ((Name-of Structure)) *Recorded by Ashley Losco *Date March 5, 2026❑x Continuation ❑ Update pitched cross-gabled roof form;closed eaves with exposed beams;historic glazed wood front door; recessed front porch and uncovered front patio;tripartite window on the west fagade;and 1-over-1 wood-sash hung windows throughout. *1312.

Greenleaf Street Santa Ana, CA 92706 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, and such design is compatible with - 1 - MILLS ACT AGREEMENT 2II7N. Greenleaf Street Santa Ana, CA 92706 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. -2- Exhibit D: Proposed Structure Improvements ("Work Plan") 2117 N.

The Ranch House originated in the 1930s 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 M.I. Thomson House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Ranch-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is "Contributive" because it is a good example of the style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood.

Include design,materials,condition,alterations,size,setting,and boundaries) Located on a mid-block parcel in the West Floral Park neighborhood, the M.1. Thomson House consists of a one-story, single- family residence and attached garage constructed in the Ranch style (Figure 1). The parcel is bounded on the east by Westwood Avenue and on the north, south, and west by private property. The one story residence has an irregular plan and a concrete foundation. Its complex roof is principally gable-on-hip, crossed with gabled and gable-on-hip roof sections. The roof is clad in wood shakes and generally has broad, closed eaves. Exterior walls sheathed in lap wood, stucco, and, to a limited degree, brick veneer. Facing Westwood Avenue to the east, the asymmetrical main facade is characterized by a wing-and- gable form and a broad recessed porch sheltered by an extension of the roof(Figure 2). Brick-lined straight steps lead to the wood-panel front door, which is flanked by three-pane side lights situated above wood-panel wainscoting. The floor of the porch is surfaced with brick, while the porch ceiling features wood-plank cladding. Low brick planters extend left and right from the entrance; the planter on the right is incorporated into the brick external chimney(Figure 3). Windows on the main elevation are generally wood-sash multi-pane units in fixed and hung configurations, including a hexagonal bay window looking over the porch(Figures 4 and 5). Located at the south end of the main exterior, the gabled wing houses the attached two-car garage, accessed by a non-original roll-up garage door. (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 6.) *P3b.

Also address integrity) The M.l. Thomson House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Ranch-style house in Santa Ana. The original building permit indicates the property was constructed in 1963 as a residence and attached garage at a cost of$40,000.00. Mary 1. Thomson purchased the subject parcel from developer Emmet C. Rogers circa 1963, and contractor Frank M. Rogers completed the residence in September 1963. Deed documents show that following Thomson's ownership of the property, it was acquired by a series of owners including David Reich (date of acquisition undetermined), Dina Jackson Roseler(1987), John Devine (1987), and Steven N. and Patricia D. Atkinson (1988; Anonymous 1963, 1987a, 1987b, 2025, Rogers 1963, Ward 1988). In 2025, the property came under the legal control of Michael Atkinson and Steve Doughty as trustees for Patricia Atkinson. Research, including a review of documents on Ancestry.com and Newspapers.com did not identify information of consequence of the property's current or former owners(See Continuation Sheet 3). B11.

Description (continued): Secondary facades generally feature stucco walls punctuated by wood sash windows in multiple configurations, including multi-pane hung wood units (Figure 6) similar to those on the primary fagade, and a few fixed or awning type windows located on the south fagade (Figure 7). At the rear (west) fagade the main roof is crossed with gable-on-hip extensions (Figure 8), forming a shallow court. Just off the court, the recessed rear patio (Figure 9) is covered by an extension of the roof. Secondary entrances are located adjacent to the patio and feature original and non-original solid, glazed, and louvered doors. Landscaping includes front and back lawns, mature trees, and flowering and non-flowering shrubs. *1310. 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. Since the second half of the twentieth century, the neighborhood in which the M.I. Thomson House is located has been known as West Floral Park. Bounded by Santiago Creek on the north, West Seventeenth Street on the south, North Flower Street on the east and North Bristol Street on the west, this residential area largely developed after 1947. Prior to that time, the area was primarily agricultural, and other than Flower Street, which was improved with houses during the 1920s and 1930s, contained only a handful of residences on Baker and Bristol Streets, the City Water Works pumping plant at 2315 North Bristol Street, and the Animal Shelter and City/County Pound at 2321 North Bristol Street. Between 1947 and 1950, around two dozen homes were constructed on Baker, Olive, Towner, and Westwood Streets. Construction boomed throughout the neighborhood during the 1950s, with the California Ranch emerging as the favored residential style. The M.1. Thomson House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Ranch-style home in Santa Ana. Located in West Floral Park, the house was constructed in 1963. The recommended categorization is "Contributive"because it contributes to the overall character and history of its neighborhood and is a good example of period architecture (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). Character-defining features of the house's original Ranch-style construction include, but are not necessarily limited to, its wing-and-gable main (south) fagade composition; wood shake roof cladding, horizontal lap wood, brick, and stucco siding; principally gable-on-hip roof form; closed eaves; wood-sash windows in multiple configurations; recessed front and back porches; and brick planters and integrated brick external chimney.

Thomson House (2214 N. Westwood Avenue) RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. Adopt a resolution approving Historic Resources Commission Application No. 2025- 18 and Historic Register Categorization No. 2026-1; and 2. Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute the attached Mills Act agreement with Michael Atkinson and Steve Doughty, as Trustees of the Patricia Atkinson Revocable Living Trust, for the property located at 2214 N. Westwood Avenue, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Michael Atkinson and Steve Doughty, as Trustees of the Patricia Atkinson Revocable Living Trust, are requesting approval to designate an existing Minimal Traditional-style residence located at 2214 N. Westwood Avenue to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties ("Register"), as well as approval to execute a Mills Act agreement with the City of Santa Ana. The property qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Ranch-style house. It is worthy of "Contributive" categorization as it has a distinctive architectural style and quality reflective of the Ranch style, including its gable-on-hip roof, original wood-sash windows, and lap wood siding, among other features. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located mid-block on Westwood Avenue, between Santa Clara Avenue to the north and Twenty-first Street to the south, in the West Floral Park neighborhood in Santa Ana. The site contains a 2,674-square-foot, Ranch-style residence on an approximately 10,890 -square-foot residential lot (Exhibits 3 and 4). HRCA No. 2025-18, HRC No. 2026-1, HPPA No. 2026-1 — The M.I. Thomson House (2214 N. Westwood Avenue) March 5, 2026 Page 2 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 SAMC (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 selection criteria for inclusion on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties pursuant to criteria contained in Section 30-2 of the SAMC, as the structure is 63 years old and is a sound example of period architecture. No known code violations exist on record for this property. The M.I. Thomson House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Ranch- style house in Santa Ana. The original building permit indicates the property was constructed in 1963 as a residence and attached garage at a cost of $40,000. Mary I. Thomson purchased the subject parcel from developer Emmet C. Rogers circa 1963, and contractor Frank M. Rogers completed the residence in September 1963. Deed documents show that following Thomson's ownership of the property, it was acquired by a series of owners including David Reich (date of acquisition undetermined), Dina Jackson Roseler (1987), John Devine (1987), and Steven N. and Patricia D. Atkinson. In 2025, the property came under the legal control of Michael Atkinson and Steve Doughty as trustees for Patricia Atkinson. Research, including a review of documents on Ancestry.com and Newspapers.com did not identify information of consequence of the property's current or former owners. Located on a mid-block parcel in the West Floral Park neighborhood, the M.I. Thomson House consists of a one-story, single-family residence and attached garage constructed in the Ranch style. The parcel is bounded on the east by Westwood Avenue and on the north, south, and west by private property. The one story residence has an irregular plan and a concrete foundation. Its complex roof is principally gable-on-hip, crossed with gabled and gable-on-hip roof sections. The roof is clad in wood shakes and generally has broad, closed eaves. Exterior walls sheathed in lap wood, stucco, and, to a limited degree, brick veneer. Facing Westwood Avenue to the east, the asymmetrical main fagade is characterized by a wing-and-gable form and a broad recessed porch sheltered by an extension of the roof brick-lined straight steps lead to the wood-panel front door, which is HRCA No. 2025-18, HRC No. 2026-1, HPPA No. 2026-1 — The M.I. Thomson House (2214 N. Westwood Avenue) March 5, 2026 Page 3 flanked by three-pane side lights situated above wood-panel wainscoting. The floor of the porch is surfaced with brick, while the porch ceiling features wood-plank cladding. Low brick planters extend left and right from the entrance; the planter on the right is incorporated into the brick external chimney. Windows on the main elevation are generally wood-sash multi-pane units in fixed and hung configurations, including a hexagonal bay window looking over the porch. Located at the south end of the main exterior, the gabled wing houses the attached two-car garage, accessed by a non-original roll-up garage door. Secondary facades generally feature stucco walls punctuated by wood sash windows in multiple configurations, including multi-pane hung wood units similar to those on the primary facade, and a few fixed or awning type windows located on the south fagade. At the rear (west) facade the main roof is crossed with gable-on-hip extensions, forming a shallow court. Just off the court, the recessed rear patio is covered by an extension of the roof. Secondary entrances are located adjacent to the patio and feature original and non- original solid, glazed, and louvered doors. Landscaping includes front and back lawns, mature trees, and flowering and non-flowering shrubs. Character-defining features of the house's original Ranch-style construction include, but are not limited to, its wing-and-gable main (south) fagade composition; wood shake roof cladding, horizontal lap wood, brick, and stucco siding; principally gable-on-hip roof form; closed eaves; wood-sash windows in multiple configurations; recessed front and back porches; and brick planters and integrated brick external chimney. The M.I. Thomson House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Ranch-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is "Contributive" because it contributes to the overall character and history of its neighborhood and is a good example of period architecture (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). 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: HRCA No. 2025-18, HRC No. 2026-1, HPPA No. 2026-1 — The M.I. Thomson House (2214 N. Westwood Avenue) March 5, 2026 Page 4 • Long term preservation of the property and visual improvement to the neighborhood • A mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation • Incentives for potential buyers to purchase historic structures • Discouraging 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 subject to a completion of future improvements as described in an attached Work Plan. Overall, future improvements (Work Plan) proposed by the homeowner and Planning Division staff during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include the following: 1) assess all siding (lap wood, stucco, and brick) for cracking and other damage; replace or repair in-kind with Planning Division staff approval; (2) assess condition of windows; replace in-kind, as necessary with Planning Division staff approval; 3) assess condition of roofing (wood shakes) and fascia and repair or replace in-kind, as necessary with Planning Division staff approval; 4) assess hardscaping, including driveway, walkways, and porch/patio steps and flooring, throughout the residence and repair or replace in-kind, as necessary and with Planning Division staff approval; and 5) assess condition of foundation and repair with Planning Division staff approval. 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. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement to enable the Mills Act.

The Ranch House originated in the 1930s 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 M.I. Thomson House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Ranch-style home in Santa Ana. The recommended categorization is "Contributive" because it is a good example of the style and contributes to the historical and architectural character of its neighborhood. (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3).

Include design,materials,condition,alterations,size,setting,and boundaries) Located on a mid-block parcel in the West Floral Park neighborhood, the M.1. Thomson House consists of a one-story, single- family residence and attached garage constructed in the Ranch style (Figure 1). The parcel is bounded on the east by Westwood Avenue and on the north, south, and west by private property. The one story residence has an irregular plan and a concrete foundation. Its complex roof is principally gable-on-hip, crossed with gabled and gable-on-hip roof sections. The roof is clad in wood shakes and generally has broad, closed eaves. Exterior walls sheathed in lap wood, stucco, and, to a limited degree, brick veneer. Facing Westwood Avenue to the east, the asymmetrical main facade is characterized by a wing-and- gable form and a broad recessed porch sheltered by an extension of the roof(Figure 2). Brick-lined straight steps lead to the wood-panel front door, which is flanked by three-pane side lights situated above wood-panel wainscoting. The floor of the porch is surfaced with brick, while the porch ceiling features wood-plank cladding. Low brick planters extend left and right from the entrance; the planter on the right is incorporated into the brick external chimney(Figure 3). Windows on the main elevation are generally wood-sash multi-pane units in fixed and hung configurations, including a hexagonal bay window looking over the porch(Figures 4 and 5). Located at the south end of the main exterior, the gabled wing houses the attached two-car garage, accessed by a non-original roll-up garage door. (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 6.) *P3b.

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1963 Property Type: Single-family residence Applicable Criteria: C13 (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period,and geographic scope. Also address integrity) The M.l. Thomson House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Ranch-style house in Santa Ana. The original building permit indicates the property was constructed in 1963 as a residence and attached garage at a cost of$40,000.00. Mary 1. Thomson purchased the subject parcel from developer Emmet C. Rogers circa 1963, and contractor Frank M. Rogers completed the residence in September 1963. Deed documents show that following Thomson's ownership of the property, it was acquired by a series of owners including David Reich (date of acquisition undetermined), Dina Jackson Roseler(1987), John Devine (1987), and Steven N. and Patricia D. Atkinson (1988; Anonymous 1963, 1987a, 1987b, 2025, Rogers 1963, Ward 1988). In 2025, the property came under the legal control of Michael Atkinson and Steve Doughty as trustees for Patricia Atkinson. Research, including a review of documents on Ancestry.com and Newspapers.com did not identify information of consequence of the property's current or former owners(See Continuation Sheet 3). B11.

Description (continued): Secondary facades generally feature stucco walls punctuated by wood sash windows in multiple configurations, including multi-pane hung wood units (Figure 6) similar to those on the primary fagade, and a few fixed or awning type windows located on the south fagade (Figure 7). At the rear (west) fagade the main roof is crossed with gable-on-hip extensions (Figure 8), forming a shallow court. Just off the court, the recessed rear patio (Figure 9) is covered by an extension of the roof. Secondary entrances are located adjacent to the patio and feature original and non-original solid, glazed, and louvered doors. Landscaping includes front and back lawns, mature trees, and flowering and non-flowering shrubs. *1310. 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. Since the second half of the twentieth century, the neighborhood in which the M.I. Thomson House is located has been known as West Floral Park. Bounded by Santiago Creek on the north, West Seventeenth Street on the south, North Flower Street on the east and North Bristol Street on the west, this residential area largely developed after 1947. Prior to that time, the area was primarily agricultural, and other than Flower Street, which was improved with houses during the 1920s and 1930s, contained only a handful of residences on Baker and Bristol Streets, the City Water Works pumping plant at 2315 North Bristol Street, and the Animal Shelter and City/County Pound at 2321 North Bristol Street. Between 1947 and 1950, around two dozen homes were constructed on Baker, Olive, Towner, and Westwood Streets. Construction boomed throughout the neighborhood during the 1950s, with the California Ranch emerging as the favored residential style. The M.I. Thomson House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact example of a Ranch-style home in Santa Ana. Located in West Floral Park, the house was constructed in 1963. The recommended categorization is "Contributive"because it contributes to the overall character and history of its neighborhood and is a good example of period architecture (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.3). Character-defining features of the house's original Ranch-style construction include, but are not necessarily limited to, its wing-and-gable main (south) fagade composition; wood shake roof cladding, horizontal lap wood, brick, and stucco siding; principally gable-on-hip roof form; closed eaves; wood-sash windows in multiple configurations; recessed front and back porches; and brick planters and integrated brick external chimney.

Westwood Avenue Santa Ana, CA 92 70 7 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, and such design is compatible with - 1 - MILLS ACT AGREEMENT 2214 N.
