HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 03 - Review of a Mills Act Historical Property Contract for Virginia Levering Latimer House (858 Toro) Department Name: Community Development Cost Center: 4003 For Agenda of: June 2, 2020 Placement: Consent Estimated Time: N/A FROM: Michael Codron, Community Development Director Prepared By: Walter Oetzell, Assistant Planner SUBJECT: REVIEW OF A MILLS ACT HISTORICAL PROPERTY CONTRACT FOR THE VIRGINIA LEVERING LATIMER HOUSE (A MASTER LIST RESOURCE) RECOMMENDATION As recommended by the Cultural Heritage Committee, adopt a resolution (Attachment A) approving a Historic Property Preservation Agreement between the City and the owners of the Virginia Levering Latimer House at 858 Toro Street, under the terms described in the draft agreement (Attachment B). DISCUSSION The owners of the Virginia Levering Latimer House at 858 Toro Street submitted an application to enter into a Mills Act historical property contract with the City.. The property was designated as a Master List Resource on March 17, 2020 (Council Resolution 11093), as a rare example within the City of the Italianate Style. The Mills Act Program The Mills Act Program enables California cities to enter into contracts with owners of historical property to provide them with tax relief in exchange for an agreement to actively participate in the restoration and maintenance of historical resources. A Mills Act contract is effective for an initial 10-year period, and then is automatically extended annually for an additional year. After the initial term, either the City or the owner may, by written notice, decide not to renew the contract. During the eff ective term of the contract, the property owner must improve or rehabilitate the property, maintain the property consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards, and provide visibility of the historical resource from the public right-of-way. Figure 1: Virginia Levering Latimer House Item 3 Packet Page 7 The Conservation and Open Space Element (COSE) of the General Plan describes the City’s goals and policies for the protection of cultural resources. It is the City’s policy that significant historic resources be rehabilitated and preserved (COSE § 3.3). Parti cipation in the Mills Act Program is one of the means by which the City encourages the maintenance and restoration of historic properties (COSE § 3.6.2). A property must be on the City’s Master List of Historic Resources in order to be enrolled in the program. Currently there are 58 properties participating in the program, with the last request approved by the Council in November 2018. Previous Advisory Body Action The Cultural Heritage Committee reviewed the application and the terms of the draft contract at a public hearing on April 27, 2020. The Committee, by a vote of 4-0-1 (1 Committee Member absent), recommended that the Council approve the contract (minutes pending approval). Policy Context The recommended action on this item is supported by historical preservation policies set out section 3.0 of the COSE of the City’s General Plan, particularly Program 3.6.2, regarding participation in financial incentive programs to encourage maintenance and restoration of historic properties, and also with the purpose of encouraging private stewardship of historic buildings through incentives, as provided by § 14.01.010 (B)(3) of the City’s Historic Preservation Ordinance. Public Engagement Public notice of this hearing has been provided to owners and occupants of property near the subject site, and published in a widely circulated local newspaper, and hearing agendas for this meeting have been posted at City Hall, consistent with adopted notification procedures for development projects. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Entering into a “Mills Act Contract” with the owners of historical property is not subject to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project as defined in CEQA Guidelines § 15378 (Definitions – Project). Implementation of the Mills Act is a government fiscal activity which does not involve commitment to any specific project resulting in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment (Guidelines § 15378 (b) (4)). FISCAL IMPACT After the contract is agreed, the County Assessor values the property by an income capitalization method, following guidelines provided by the State Board of Equalization. Because of the timing and the method of valuing the restricted property, it is difficult to accurately esti mate the tax savings and resulting fiscal impacts to the City under a particular historical property contract. However, the Office of Historic Preservation (California Department of Parks and Recreation) estimates that property owners participating in the program may realize property tax savings of between 40% and 60% each year for newly improved or purchased older properties. Item 3 Packet Page 8 ALTERNATIVES 1. Continue consideration of the request to a future date for additional analysis or research 2. Do not enter into a Mills Act Historical Property Contract with the property owner. This alternative is not recommended. The contract provides a tax relief incentive that is a tool for achieving the City’s goals for historical preservation.
