DISCUSSION Background The National Historic Preservation Act provides for the establishment of Certified Local Government Programs (CLG) to encourage the direct participation of local governments in the identification, evaluation, registration, and preservation of historic properties within their jurisdictions. In addition, the program promotes the integration of local preservation interests into local planning and decision-making processes. The program is a partnership among local governments, the State of California Office of Historic Preservation (OHP), and the National Park Service (NPS), which is responsible for administering the National Historic Preservation Program. With City Council endorsement in 2001, the City of Santa Ana applied for and was accepted into the CLG program. Each year, CLG communities are required to submit an annual report to assist OHP in tracking the local preservation program's ongoing activities. The Santa Ana CLG Annual Report (Exhibit 1) will be submitted to California OHP prior to their annual deadline. The report summarizes the achievement and activities of Santa Ana’s Historic Preservation Program during the October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025 timeframe. These achievements include 8 historic listings, 10 Mills Act Agreements, five certificates of appropriateness, and continued efforts to implement the Historic Preservation Element implementation actions, which were adopted by the City of Santa Ana City Council along with a new General Plan in the spring of 2022. Among these implementation actions, highlights include: Continuing preparation efforts for a citywide historic resources survey and comprehensive Santa Ana Municipal Code update of Chapter 30 (Places of Historical and Architectural Significance).         Certified Local Government 2024-2025 Annual Report March 5, 2026 Page 2 5 6 1 9 Administration and promotion of the City of Santa Ana Historic Preservation Awards program to recognize outstanding rehabilitation, restoration, and stewardship of historic resources; Ongoing public outreach and education efforts to promote awareness of historic preservation, including coordination with neighborhood and community stakeholders; and Continued interdepartmental coordination to integrate historic preservation considerations into development review, planning initiatives, and housing policy implementation. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. EXHIBIT 1.

Crawford House (1015 W. River Lane) RECOMMENDED ACTION Adopt a resolution approving a Certificate of Appropriateness for Historic Exterior Modification Application No. 2025-05 as conditioned. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Kelly and Bethany Thomas are requesting approval of Historic Exterior Modification Application (HEMA) No. 2025-05 for the property addressed as 1015 W. River Lane. Specifically, the request is to allow exterior modifications to the residence consisting of a rear addition to the semi-detached garage. The addition includes a 160-square-foot storage room consisting of a gabled roof, masonry veneer walls, two wood doors, and a fiberglass casement window. The property was listed individually on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties (“Register”) in 2020 and is known as the E.M Crawford House. DISCUSSION Project Location and Site Description The subject property is located on the north side of River Lane, southwest of Sharon Road and east of Baker Street. The General Plan land use designation for the site is Low Density Residential (LR-7), and the property is zoned Single-Family Residential (R1). The site is currently developed with a single-family residence and semi-detached garage on an 11,000-square-foot lot. The property is also individually listed as No. 697 on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties (“Register”). It was placed on the Register in 2020 and was categorized as “Landmark.” Constructed in 1948, The E.M. Crawford House is a one-story single-family residence with a semi-detached two-car garage constructed in a California Ranch style. A rare example of adobe construction in Santa Ana, the house and garage delineate an L- shaped plan, which embraces a shallow rear patio and creates a generously sized rear courtyard area. Asymmetrical in design, the house exhibits a strong horizontal emphasis expressed through a low-pitched, cross-hipped roof with wide, overhanging, open eaves         HEMA No. 2025-05 – The E.M. Crawford House (1015 W. River Lane) March 5, 2026 Page 2 5 5 3 9 with exposed rafters. The roof is clad in contemporary asphalt shingle roofing and the exterior of the house consists of whitewashed, solid adobe brick. The original significance evaluation for the property identified the masonry as “Verdugo brick;” subsequent research suggests this may refer to the Verdugo Adobe Brick Manufacturing Company, formerly of Yucaipa, California. Research did not suggest the firm was historically significant as a supplier of adobe construction materials. The original significance evaluation also noted the adobe bricks were reportedly made on site, observing each brick was approximately twelve-inches wide, eighteen-inches long, and five-inches thick, with no two bricks perfectly alike. Along the front (south) elevation, the house features a full-width broad porch and two wide double doors that open into the rear courtyard, gated by Art Deco inspired wrought iron gates. Entry into the residence is accessed off of the rear courtyard and features a deeply recessed wood door, and adjacent sliding patio doors providing access to the “Lanai,” which is the roofed veranda connecting the main residence and the garage. The front (south) elevation features two deeply recessed, multi-light, metal-framed casement windows. The north, west, and east elevations, as well as along the interior courtyard, also feature deeply recessed multi-light, metal-framed casement windows. A secondary entry porch into the exterior courtyard features a simple wood door, and is clad in board- and-batten wood siding. Two prominent adobe brick chimneys located along the east and west elevations rise above the roof ridgeline and feature decorative chimney caps with cross in an upside down “V” design. The rear courtyard still retains an original incinerator, also constructed of adobe bricks concurrent with construction of the house. The house appears intact and is in good condition and no notable alterations have been made since the property was evaluated in 2020. Character-defining features of the residence that should be preserved include:  L -shaped plan incorporating courtyards and covered porches  Low-pitched, cross-hipped roof  Wide, overhanging, open eaves and exposed rafters  “Verdugo Adobe” brick  Multi-light, metal-framed casement windows  Wooden window and door headers  Adobe brick chimneys Project Description The project applicants are proposing to construct a 160-square-foot rear storage room addition to the rear (north) façade of the existing semi-detached garage. As proposed, the project will construct a three-sided addition, with its open side abutting the existing garage, requiring no substantial changes to the design or historic fabric of the garage. The addition will be characterized by a gabled roof with a peak reaching just below the existing roof overhang, painted masonry veneer exterior wall cladding, two wood doors,         HEMA No. 2025-05 – The E.M. Crawford House (1015 W. River Lane) March 5, 2026 Page 3 5 5 3 9 and a fiberglass-sash casement window. The method of attaching the addition to the rear exterior adobe wall of the garage has not yet been decided upon. Due to the potentially sensitive nature of adobe brick, the property owners will consult with Planning and Building Agency staff to identify the most structurally sound method of attaching the addition. Aside from the possible insertion of bolts, the project will not include physical changes to the existing building. A condition of approval has been included in the resolution related to HEMA No. 2025-5, requiring the property owners and Planning and Building Agency staff consult to ensure the project is structurally sound and will not cause damage to property’s the adobe fabric. In addition to agreeing to consultation to ensure the protection of the property’s adobe fabric, the applicants have consulted with staff and made certain changes to the project as originally proposed in order to ensure the project will be consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards (SOIS). The project originally proposed the inclusion on the addition of stucco cladding scored to mimic the existing masonry bond pattern. However, following staff review, the applicant revised the project to include a masonry veneer whose simulated bond pattern will be better differentiated from the existing masonry. In addition, the applicant has proposed a project design that will involve at most limited direct physical changes to the existing exterior of the garage and will thus be reversible. As mentioned above, wall junctions of the addition and garage will not require the removal of significant historical materials. Alternatives currently under consideration will require limited drilling into or through the adobe to insert bolts that would anchor the new construction to the garage for weatherproof junctions. Furthermore, ingress/egress between the historic garage and the proposed storage room addition will be available via an existing doorway and therefore will not require the creation of a new opening in the walls of the historic garage. Work involving direct changes to the property will be limited to the rear (north) façade of the semi-detached garage. Lastly, no work is proposed for the existing residence. Analysis Secretary of the Interior’s Standards The proposed project, as conditioned, will follow the 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, as conditioned, is 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.         HEMA No. 2025-05 – The E.M. Crawford House (1015 W. River Lane) March 5, 2026 Page 4 5 5 3 9 As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 1. because it will consist of minor changes and will maintain the property’s historical use as a residence with limited material changes. Direct physical changes will at most require the drilling of holes into or through a handful of adobe brick to affix the addition. Aside from minimal loss of materials due to drilling, no materials or features will be changed. Further, should the addition be removed in the future, any bolt holes could be patched and painted, with no discernible change to any of the property’s distinctive materials, or features. The project, which consists of a small rear attachment, would alter the form of the garage, introducing limited changes to the property’s distinguishing spaces and spatial relationships. However, the compact plan and relatively low height of the addition will make it subordinate to the garage, and because the addition will have a small footprint and will be set back several feet from the character-defining rear courtyard, it will not impact the essential form or feeling of the courtyard. 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. As discussed in the analysis under Standard No. 1, the project as conditioned will not cause a substantial loss of historic materials and will introduce only limited changes to the spaces and spatial relationships of the property. Therefore, the project complies with Standard No. 2. 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 because the proposed changes will not create a false sense of historical development. The new addition will be recognizable as a non-historic addition to the property. It will be differentiated from the historic garage by way of a gabled roof form that contrasts with the exiting hipped roof, the use of a masonry veneer with individual masonry units substantially narrower than the existing masonry, and a lower overall height as than the historic garage. Moreover, no conjectural historic features or elements from other historic properties are proposed to be added as part of the project. 4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved.         HEMA No. 2025-05 – The E.M. Crawford House (1015 W. River Lane) March 5, 2026 Page 5 5 5 3 9 Standard 4 does not apply, as there are no non-original features proposed for removal have attained significance in their own right. 5. Distinctive features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property shall be preserved. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 5 because distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize the property will be preserved. At most, the project will involve only a limited loss of the property’s character-defining adobe exterior surface where bolts may affix the proposed addition to the garage. The project would not require the removal of entire adobe bricks, but, only the loss of negligible amounts of material if the ultimate project design calls for the drilling of holes into the adobe wall to secure the addition. 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 No. 6 does not apply to this project because the project does not involve changes to any deteriorated historic feature. 7. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. The project will not involve chemical or physical treatments, and therefore the Standard 7 is not applicable. 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 on-site, and the work will not require grading or excavation that may uncover any archaeological resources. 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.         HEMA No. 2025-05 – The E.M. Crawford House (1015 W. River Lane) March 5, 2026 Page 6 5 5 3 9 As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 9. As discussed above, with completion of the project, character-defining spatial relationships will remain essentially intact, there will be no substantial loss of historical materials, and the scale, form, and materials of the proposed addition will subordinate it to, and differentiate it from, the historic garage. 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. If the proposed addition were removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the subject property would remain intact. The project will not require any substantial direct physical change to the existing garage. At most the project will require the drilling of holes into the existing adobe surface to attach the addition to the garage at limited junction points. If the addition is removed, the drilled holes can be filled and painted over with no discernible change to the property. Therefore, the project complies with Standard No. 10. Conclusion Staff has determined that the project, as conditioned, complies with The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. Specifically, the analysis indicates that the proposed rear addition would not detract from the historic integrity of the garage or the property as a whole. 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 and meet the Secretary of Interior’s Standards per the California Environmental Quality Act (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. Public Notification 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.

Lastly, no work is proposed for any other façade of the garage or any part of the residence. G. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 30 -6, the Historic Resources Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on March 5, 2026, for the request for exterior modifications to 1015 W. River Lane. H. 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. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 1. because it will consist of minor changes and will maintain the property’s historical use as a residence with limited material changes.

The project, which consists of a small rear attachment, would alter the form of the garage, introducing limited changes to the property’s distinguishing spaces and spatial relationships. However, the compact plan and relatively low height of the addition will make it subordinate to the garage, and because the addition will have a small footprint and will be set back several feet from the character-defining rear courtyard, it will not impact the essential form or feeling of the courtyard. ii. As discussed in the analysis under Standard No. 1, the project as conditioned will not cause a substantial loss of historic materials and will introduce only limited changes to the spaces and spatial relationships of the property. Therefore, the project complies with Standard No. 2. iii. The project complies with Standard No. 3 because the proposed changes will not create a false sense of historical development. The new addition will be recognizable as a non - historic addition to the property. It will be differentiated from the historic garage by way of a gabled roof form that contrasts with the exiting hipped roof, the use of a masonry veneer with individual masonry units substantially narrower than the         FREE RECORDING PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE § 27383 Resolution No. 2026-XX Page 4 of 9 existing masonry, and a lower overall height as than the historic garage. Moreover, no conjectural historic features or elements from other historic properties are proposed to be added as part of the project. iv. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 5 because distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize the property will be preserved. At most, the project will involve only a limited loss of the property’s character-defining adobe exterior surface where bolts may affix the proposed addition to the garage. The project would not require the removal of entire adobe bricks, but, only the loss of negligible amounts of material if the ultimate project design calls for the drilling of holes into the adobe wall to secure the addition. v. As conditioned, the project complies with Standard No. 9. As discussed above, with completion of the project, character- defining spatial relationships will remain essentially intact, there will be no substantial loss of historical materials, and the scale, form, and materials of the proposed addition will subordinate it to, and differentiate it from, the historic garage. vi. If the proposed addition were removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the subject property would remain intact. The project will not require any substantial direct change to the existing garage. At most the project will require the drilling of holes into the existing adobe surface to attach the addition to the garage at limited junction points. If the addition is removed, the drilled holes can be fill ed and painted over with no discernible change to the property. Therefore, the project complies with Standard No. 10. vii. Standards 4, 6, 7, and 8 are not applicable. Section 2.

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 E.M. Crawford House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an early and very intact example of the Ranch style in Santa Ana and under Criterion 3 as a rare example of adobe construction in Santa Ana. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Landmark” because it "has a distinctive architectural style and quality" representing the Ranch House style in Santa Ana, and because, as a rare, perhaps unique, example of the late adobe revival in Santa Ana, the building has a “unique architectural significance”.

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) The E.M. Crawford House is a one-story single-family residence with an attached two-car garage constructed in a California Ranch style. A rare example of adobe construction in Santa Ana, the house and garage delineate an "L" -shaped plan, which embraces a shallow rear patio and creates a generously sized rear courtyard area. Asymmetrical in design, the house exhibits a strong horizontal emphasis expressed through a low-pitched, cross-hipped roof with wide, overhanging, open eaves with exposed rafters. The roof is clad in contemporary asphalt shingle roofing and the exterior of the house consists of whitewashed, solid “Verdugo Adobe” brick, reportedly made on site, each approximately twelve-inches wide, eighteen-inches long, and five-inches thick, with no two bricks alike. Along the front (south) elevation, the house features a full-width broad porch and a two wide double doors that open into the rear courtyard, gated by Art Deco inspired wrought iron gates. Entry into the residence is accessed off of the rear courtyard and features a deeply recessed wood door, and adjacent sliding patio doors providing access to the “Lanai.” The front (south) elevation features two deeply recessed, multi-light, metal-framed casement windows. The north, west, and east elevations, as well as along the interior courtyard, also feature deeply recessed multi-light, metal-framed casement windows. A secondary entry porch into the exterior courtyard features a simple wood door, and is clad in board-and-batten wood siding. Two prominent adobe brick chimneys located along the east and west elevations rise above the roof ridgeline and feature decorative chimney caps with cross in an upside down “V” design. The rear courtyard still retains an original incinerator, also constructed of adobe bricks concurrent with construction of the house. The house appears intact and is in good condition. *P3b.

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1948 Property Type:Single-family Residence Applicable Criteria: C/3 (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity) The E.M. Crawford House is architecturally significant as a characteristic example of the California Ranch style, and as a rare example of adobe construction in the City of Santa Ana. The house was originally constructed in 1948 by Edgar B. Lembke, and was valued at approximately $20,000, according to the original building permit. The first recorded occupants were Earl M. and Bertha L. Crawford. Born in California, Earl M. Crawford was a local agriculturist and Chairman of the utilities department of the Orange County Farm Bureau, and Vice President, and subsequently President, of the Olive Heights Citrus Association. Built in the early 1920's on three acres of land beside the railroad tracks on Orange-Olive Road, the Olive Heights packing house was, "one of 53 packinghouses that dotted the county from Brea to San Juan Capistrano. But as the miles of orange groves gave way to housing tracts after World War II, Valencia orange production plummeted. There were 65,000 acres dedicated to oranges in 1940 compared to less than 1,000 in 1995" (Los Angeles Times, February 7, 1997). Additional residents over the years included, J.H. Westerman Jr. (1979), Howell T. Hunt (1985), and Barbara Schmid (1990). In 2006, the property was acquired by John L. and Carolyn J. Kuykendal and in 2014 it was sold to the current owner.

Crawford House *Recorded by Pedro Gomez *Date October 29, 2020 _ Continuation † Update DPR 523L *B10. Significance (continued): The E.M. Crawford House is located in Jack Fisher Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by Bristol Street, Santa Clara Avenue, Memory Lane, and the Interstate 5. The neighborhood takes its name from Jacob (Jack) Fisher. Born in Yakima, Washington, Fisher moved to Santa Ana with his parents and sister in the early twentieth century. In April 1917, upon the United States’ entry into World War I, Fisher enlisted in the US Army when he was 18 years old. Assigned to Company L, Seventh California Regiment, Fisher later advanced to the level of corporal in the 58th Infantry of Company D. After Fisher’s death at the age of 30, in March 1929, the Chapter of Disabled American Veterans he helped form took his name as the Jack Fisher Post, Chapter of Disabled American Veterans. On August 23, 1933, construction was completed on a park north of Santiago Creek on North Flower Street and dedicated as the Jack Fisher Memorial Park. Prior to its residential development, Fisher Park formed Lots 5B, 8 and 9 of the Potts, Borden and Sidwell Tract, subdivided in 1881. Current-day Interstate 5 conforms to the prominent diagonal swath cut by the Southern Pacific Railroad line, which was established in Santa Ana in the late 1870s and still forms the eastern border of the Fisher Park neighborhood. With the exception of the Southern Pacific Railroad line, the area remained agricultural through much of the first half of the twentieth century, with walnut groves and orchards dotting the landscape. In November 1947, residential development arrived when a narrow strip was cleared, graded, and subdivided into 25 lots offered as Tract No. 1160, “River Lane Tract.” Mirroring the curve of Santiago Creek to the south, the streets displayed a curvilinear layout, with lots ranging in size from 70 to 130 feet long, 140 to 190 deep. Three years later, in August 1950, another curvilinear subdivision appeared east of Flower Street, with smaller lots, averaging 60 feet by 90 feet, arranged around a curvilinear pattern with cul-de-sacs. An outgrowth of earlier City Beautiful and Garden City models, this curvilinear layout reflected neighborhood planning preferences codified in the 1930s by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), which regulated and financed the increase in home ownership through its mortgage lending and insurance programs. During the post-WWII housing expansion in the United States, the FHA-endorsed model for city planning, as reflected in the neighborhood of Fisher Park, “set the standards for the design of post-World War II subdivisions.” (National Register Bulletin, Historic Residential Suburbs, p. 49). Construction quickly transformed the neighborhood from agricultural to residential. A 1947 aerial photograph taken a few months before creation of the River Lane Tract shows the area dominated by groves of trees. By 1955, nearly all the lots of both tracts had been improved with single-family residences with uniform setbacks, mostly in the Ranch House style popular in the 1950s and 1960s, in a configuration and unity of design still reflected there today (2020). The homes of the Jack Fisher Park neighborhood represent the overwhelming success architects and builders had in the early 1950’s, when building homes using “California Ranch” architectural design and features. Homes and lots located in the Fisher Park neighborhood were generously scaled, with homes ranging from 1,500 to 6,000 square feet and lot sizes from 6,500 to 25,000 square feet. The E.M. Crawford House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an early and very intact example of the Ranch style in Santa Ana and under Criterion 3 as a rare example of adobe construction in Santa Ana. The original “ranch” houses of the southwestern United States were built following the arrival of the Spanish and Mexican settlers in the eighteenth century. Using traditional building techniques and the available materials of clay and straw, houses—indeed, most buildings from the time of arrival through the first decades of the nineteenth century—were one-story structures of adobe bricks. Overhanging roof eaves sheltered porches that functioned as outdoor rooms and exterior corridors. Thick adobe walls necessitated deeply recessed window and door openings, with embedded wooden headers added for support. Many of these “hacienda” style homes were L-, U-, or box-shaped in plan in order to incorporate a courtyard. Adobe construction had been mostly supplanted by wood frame and masonry by the mid-nineteenth century in southern California. Adobe enjoyed brief and limited periods of resurgence in association with the Mission and Spanish Colonial Revival styles of the first few decades of the twentieth century. When architects were experimenting with prototypes of what became the California Ranch style, one of the antecedents to which they looked for inspiration was the adobe ranch houses surviving from the nineteenth century. Cliff May, the trailblazing Ranch style architect, often emulated the appearance of adobe construction and used the actual material in a handful of his designs. In the post-World War II period, other architects and builders also experimented with modern adobe building systems. One such architect was Hugh W. Comstock of Carmel, California, who published a monograph in 1948 describing his “Post-Adobe” system combining “a rugged timber frame and modern stabilized adobe.” The Verdugo Brick system utilized for the E. M. Crawford House appears to be another such foray into adobe construction. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Landmark” because it "has a distinctive architectural style and quality" representing the Ranch House style in Santa Ana, and because, as a rare, perhaps unique, example of the late adobe revival in Santa Ana, the building has a “unique architectural significance.” (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). Character- defining features of the E.M. Crawford House include, but may not be limited to: massing ("L" -shaped plan incorporating courtyards and covered porches); low-pitched, cross-hipped roof; wide, overhanging, open eaves and exposed rafters; “Verdugo Adobe” brick; fenestration (multi-light, metal-framed casement windows); wooden window and door headers; and adobe brick chimneys.         State of California  The Resources Agency Primary # _____________________________________________ DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION HRI # ________________________________________________ CONTINUATION SHEET Trinomial _____________________________________________ Page 4_ of 4_ Resource Name: E.M.

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 5 5 4 1 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 façade 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 5 5 4 1 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 façade, and a few fixed or awning type windows located on the south façade. At the rear (west) façade 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) façade 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 5 5 4 1 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.

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) 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 (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 façade 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: C/3 (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity) 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 $40,000.00. 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 (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 façade, and a few fixed or awning type windows located on the south façade (Figure 7). At the rear (west) façade 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. *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. 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) façade 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.         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 James Williams *Date January 29, 2026  Continuation  Update DPR 523L *B12.

Westwood Avenue Santa Ana, CA 92707 - 1 - 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         MILLS ACT AGREEMENT 2214 N. Westwood Avenue Santa Ana, CA 92707 - 2 - 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.         Exhibit D: Proposed Structure Improvements (“Work Plan”) 2214 N. Westwood Avenue Item Year Improvement 1 2026 Assess all siding (lap wood, stucco, and brick) for cracking and other damage; replace or repair in-kind with staff approval. 2 2027 Assess condition of windows; replace in-kind, as necessary with staff approval. 4 2029 Assess condition of roofing (wood shakes) and fascia and repair or replace in-kind, as necessary with staff approval. 5 2031 Assess hardscaping, including driveway, walkways, and porch/patio steps and flooring, throughout the residence and repair or replace in-kind, as necessary and with staff approval. 6 2032 Assess condition of foundation and repair with staff approval.         HRCA NO. 2025-18, HRC NO. 2026-01, HPPA NO. 2026-01 THOMSON HOUSE 2214 N.
