A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMISSION OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING NEIGHBORHOOD
PROJECT REVIEW NO. 2004-11 TO PERMIT THE
EXTERIOR MODIFICATION AT 714 NORTH SPURGEON
STREET IN THE SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT ZONE NO. 19
(SD-19)
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds,
determines and declares as follows:
A. The Property Owners are requesting approval of Neighborhood Project
Review No. 2004-11 to permit the replacement of the damaged existing
wood porch columns with Permacast columns of like architectural style and
size for the property located at 714 North Spurgeon Street, which is located
• within the Specific Development 19 (SD-19) Zoning District (French Park).
B. The French Park Review Committee identified concerns regarding the
compatibility of the substitute materials with the neighborhood design
guidelines, and requested the repair of the wood columns or the
fabrication and installation of identical wood columns.
C. The French Park Design Guidelines state that "Replacing in kind an entire
entrance or porch that is too deteriorated to repair - if the form and
detailing are still evident -using the physical evidence to guide the new
work. If using the same kind of material is not technically or economically
feasible, then a compatible substitute material may be considered."
The proposed Permacast columns will be of like architectural style,
form and detail that are consistent with the adopted neighborhood
guidelines.
2. The wood columns were not original to the structure. Historic
documentation and inspection reveal that the columns are most likely
from a 1987 renovation.
D. The fabrication of identical wood columns is cost prohibitive to the
applicant and repair is not a viable or cost-effective option.

E. The substitute material for the wood columns meets the Secretary of the
. Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. These nationally accepted
standards encourage the use of in-kind materials, but also allow for the
use of compatible substitute materials as replacement for deteriorated
features if the new material conveys the same form, design and overall
visual appearance as the historic feature.
F. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-593.5(c) requires the Planning
Commission to review all plans within a Specific Development Plan area
to ensure that the project is in conformity with the approved Specific
Development.
G. The Planning Commission after considering all of the evidence submitted,
finds and determines that Neighborhood Project Review No. 2004-11
project is consistent with the French Park Architectural Design Guidelines
and complies with the French Park zoning provisions.

Exemption, Environmental Review No. 04-83 has been prepared for this
project.

Review No. 2004-11. This decision is based upon but not is not limited to: the Request
