09/21/2010, PH5 - CULTURAL HERITAGE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION TO UPDATE THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROGRAM GUIDELINES A
council nn,D .,i io j AgcnbA REpoRt I..Numbs C I TY OF SAN LU IS O B I S P O FROM: John Mandeville, Community Development Direct 4A Prepared By: Kim Murry, Deputy Director, Long Range Planning SUBJECT: CULTURAL HERITAGE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION TO UPDATE THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROGRAM GUIDELINES AND CREATE A HISTORIC PRESERVATION ORDINANCE (GPI 72-09) RECOMMENDATION As recommended by the Cultural Heritage Committee: 1. Introduce an ordinance to add new chapter 14.01 of Title 14 (Community Preservation) to the Municipal Code to incorporate historic preservation regulations; and 2. Adopt a resolution updating the Historic Preservation Program Guidelines; and 3. Authorize staff to make non-substantive formatting changes to conform the ordinance to Municipal Code numbering conventions after incorporating any Council amendments to the proposed ordinance. DISCUSSION Report in Brief Historic preservation actions have been a part of the City's efforts for over 30 years. The Conservation and Open Space Element (COSE) contains policies and programs that direct the City to adopt an Historic Preservation Ordinance (LOSE 3.6.10) and to review and guide development applications that have the potential to affect historic resources. The Cultural Heritage Committee (CHC), an advisory body charged with administering the City's historic preservation efforts, identified creation of a Historic Preservation Ordinance as a work-program goal for many years and documented this need in a Whitepaper to the Council in 2000. In the 2009-2011 Financial Plan, the Council identified creation of an historic preservation ordinance as an Other Important. Objective and the CHC has developed a draft ordinance and updated guidelines for Council consideration (Attachments 7 and 8). The CHC and Architectural Review Commission conducted eight public hearings and two workshops, and staff has conducted numerous outreach efforts in an attempt to engage the community and incorporate changes supported by the CHC. In addition, the State Historic Preservation Officer has reviewed the draft Ordinance and updated Guidelines and changes have been made to address those comments. The CHC-endorsed draft Ordinance and updated Guidelines are now ready for Council consideration. While most of the provisions and practices remain the same (albeit reorganized), there are a couple of changes that have raised concerns from several members of the public- T1 \ ublic:T1 \ C. Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines Page 2 namely the proposed enforcement and penalties section of the Ordinance. Attachment 1 shows how public input during the review process was incorporated into the documents and Attachment 3 lists other communities that have enforcement procedures and penalties. Background The City of San Luis Obispo has been involved in historic preservation efforts for at least 30 years. In the 1980's, the City undertook a historic survey of the older buildings in town and approved a listing of properties considered to be Historic Resources. The Council established a temporary advisory body to review the listing information and make recommendations to Council. In 1987, the Council established the Cultural Heritage Committee as a.permanent advisory body, created three Historical Preservation Districts in order to identify older parts of the City that contain some of the historic fabric of the community, and adopted Historic Preservation Program Guidelines. The CHC regularly reviews additions to the list of historic resources, however, the Guidelines have not been substantially altered since that time. In the mid 1990's there was a push to develop a post-disaster historic preservation approach so that historic buildings did not get demolished after a disaster. Then, in 2000, the Cultural Heritage Committee (CHC) presented a "White Paper" to Council, in response to a variety of issues of concern, including demolitions of historic resources. The document contained an evaluation of the City's historic preservation program and made recommendations for future actions. One of the recommendations included adoption of a Historic Preservation Ordinance, which was seen as an effective response to the occurrence of unpermitted building demolitions. Historic Preservation Ordinances can also address "demolition by neglect," where property owners essentially demolish their historic properties through a lack of maintenance and care. In 2006, with the adoption of the COSE, the Council included several programs that specifically address historic preservation goals. One of the programs says that the City will adopt a historic preservation ordinance(COSE 3.6.10). The CHC has been charged with administering the historic preservation program and making recommendations to the Architectural Review Commission (ARC), the Director of Community Development, and the City Council. In the intervening years, the CHC identified development of the Historic Preservation Ordinance as a yearly work goal, but it was not until the 2009-2011 Financial Plan that the City Council also identified development of the ordinance as a work program priority. This Other Important Objective also included direction to conduct a historic survey if funds became available. General Plan Direction There are multiple General Plan policies and programs in the Conservation and Open Space Element that provide direction for development of the ordinance and guidelines. Several are listed below with responses indicating how the recommended drafts address the General Plan direction. Program 3.6.3: The Cultural Heritage Committee and Architectural Review Commission will provide specific guidance on the construction of new buildings within historic districts. J Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines Page 3 How it is implemented: The Guidelines have been updated to contain more information related to historic structures, historic districts, and design review. Graphics have been incorporated into sections to help illustrate key design concepts. The draft Ordinance reflects the development review process currently followed for projects within historic districts. Program 3.6.1 The City's Cultural Heritage Committee will: ...7. Review new development to determine consistency with cultural resource preservation guidelines and standards. How it is implemented: The draft Ordinance reflects the current practice of the development review process where projects located on properties with historic resources or within historic districts are reviewed for consistency with guidelines and standards. The Ordinance calls out when projects are referred to the CHC for review and recommendation. The purview of the CHC is to review only the historic aspects of the project. Their recommendation is forwarded to either the ARC or to the Director depending on the approval authority for the particular type of project under review. Program 3.6.4: The City will be prepared to assess the condition of historic buildings that may be damaged by disasters and to foster their restoration whenever feasible. How it is implemented: The draft Ordinance contains a post-disaster historic preservation section that includes evaluation of historic buildings after a structure-threatening event such as fire, flood or earthquake. The goal of this section is to integrate historic preservation efforts with the City's post-disaster response protocols. While it retains the authority of the Chief Building Official to determine whether proposed shoring, stabilization,.and if necessary demolition actions are appropriate, it allows recommendations regarding historic preservation to be a part of the consideration, thereby fostering restoration where feasible. Program 3.6.10: The City will implement the recommendations of the Cultural Heritage Committee's "Whitepaper", including the adoption of a historic preservation ordinance. How it is implemented: The draft Ordinance and updated Guidelines fulfill a portion of program 3.6.10. Other Whitepaper recommendations for an updated survey etc. will be implemented as funding allows. Ordinance and Guidelines Update Process After the 2009-2011 Financial Plan was adopted, the City hosted a Historic Preservation Workshop in August 2009. Winter and Company, a firm from Boulder Colorado that specializes in historic preservation and has done work with the City of Monterey, lead a two day intensive training for members of the CHC and ARC and staff. The workshop was designed to review key components of successful historic preservation programs and to provide hands-on exercises for advisory body members and staff to consider sample projects with guidance provided by sample standards. This workshop emphasized the importance of documenting a consistent process for development review, identifying periods of significance for the historic districts, and identifying � 5 - 3 Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines Page 4 character-defining features of historic buildings - this created the context for the work associated with developing a historic preservation ordinance. Staff researched various jurisdictions for examples of ordinances and guidelines and the CHC provided input on a table of contents for items the advisory body determined would be important to address as part of the ordinance and guidelines. The CHC reviewed several examples from other jurisdictions and provided input to staff on format, language and approach. The first preliminary drafts of the ordinance and guidelines were presented to the CHC in January 2010. The CHC wanted to develop an ordinance that would enable the City to qualify as a Certified Local Government. Becoming a Certified Local Government enables the City to apply for historic preservation program grants, and provides technical training and support for the City's program. It also indicates that the City's program is in line with State guidelines for historic preservation. In February, staff submitted the very preliminary draft documents to the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) staff for review and comment. Since SHPO is the state agency that reviews and approves applications for jurisdictions who desire to become Certified Local Governments, their input was critical to the process. Over the course of the next seven months, the CHC hosted 8 public hearings and one special workshop event and the ARC considered the Guidelines during a public hearing— all designed to elicit community input to the proposed documents. The CHC conducted hearings on the draft documents in a workshop format, normally during their regular meetings, with public comment and interactive discussions occurring as part of the proceedings. Input from the participating public was considered and often endorsed, and edits to the documents were made in real time as part of the proceedings in response. In March 2010 staff received input from SHPO that resulted in substantial changes to the draft documents. Primarily, their input indicated that the "nuts and bolts" of the historic preservation program should be contained in the ordinance and not reside in the guidelines. Therefore, the sections on eligibility criteria, integrity, the respective roles of the CHC and the Director, and the development review process were moved from the draft guidelines to the draft ordinance. In addition, both the City Attorney and the Chief Building Official indicated that enforcement sections needed to occur in the ordinance to provide a stronger basis for implementation. This reorganization provided the opportunity to refocus the Guidelines to address more information regarding the City's historic districts (i.e. periods of significance) and the types of buildings that characterize our historic neighborhoods (i.e. listing of the character-defining features of a Craftsman bungalow or Victorian or Tudor Revival, etc.). In addition, graphics were added to help illustrate some of the key design concepts of compatible development in historic districts. As part of the review process, the Chamber of Commerce expressed some discomfort with language in the draft Ordinance and Guidelines and requested a peer review of the documents. The Chamber formed a temporary subcommittee comprised of architects, engineers, and attorneys to review the documents and provide recommendations. The sub-committee spent considerable time with their review to ensure that the language in the documents supported the expressed intent. Most of the recommendations of the sub-committee were fully endorsed by the CHC and those edits are included in the drafts recommended to the Council for approval. 4�� � � Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines . Page 5 The CHC conducted their final review of the draft documents on July 26, 2010 and recommended that Council adopt the updated Guidelines and enact the new Historic Preservation Ordinance. Public Outreach Questions have been raised regarding whether adequate outreach was conducted as part of this process and whether adequate input from the public helped shape the documents under consideration. Attachment 1 contains a chart showing the comments received, their source and the changes that were made in response to the comments. It is often difficult to attract members of the public to public hearings and workshops. In addition to the legal noti ces.required by the public process, staff attempted to get information to property owners who would most likely have the greatest concerns regarding the proposed ordinance and updated guidelines: the owners of the almost 700 properties on the historic resources inventory. Postcard notifications were sent to those property owners prior to the CHC hearings and workshops in an attempt to generate questions, input, attendance and response. In addition, a brochure (Attachment 2) was sent to the same list of owners to provide some basic information, a location where owners could find more information and a contact name, number and email address. Interested parties were added to an email list and staff provided notifications, links to staff reports and updates to the almost 50 names on that list. Display ads were used for two of the meetings in addition to the legal notices required of all public hearings. Staff provided an overview of the proposed documents at several Chamber of Commerce and Downtown Association meetings, spoke at the local American Institute of Architects meeting, and presented at a SLO Realtors Association meeting. Attendees at these meetings included members who are residents in historic neighborhoods and owners of historic buildings. The Tribune and New Times have published several articles and, subsequent to the CHC making their final recommendation, an additional Workshop was held. The Updated Guidelines and Draft Ordinance Maintain Consistency with Current Roles and Processes Questions have also arisen regarding the changes proposed as part of these documents. The role of the CHC as an advisory body and the role of the Community Development Director are not recommended to change. The development review process for development on historic properties or properties in historic districts is not recommended to change. The ordinance language reflects the review process which has been in place for over 20 years. Property maintenance standards addressed in Section 17.17 of the Municipal Code and International Property Maintenance Code standards will also remain unchanged.. While these key features of the City's program will not change, substantial re-organization of the historic preservation program provisions is recommended. The historic listing eligibility criteria, roles of the CHC and Director, and development review process have been moved from the Guidelines into the draft Ordinance. The Guidelines have been augmented with graphics, Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines Page 6 descriptions of historic building type character-defining features and historic district descriptions. There are, however, several more substantive changes proposed as part of the draft Ordinance. Substantive Changes Proposed as Part of the Proposed Historic Preservation Ordinance The CHC's White Paper identified a problem with the City's efforts to implement its historic preservation program. The problem is that property owners who feel burdened by the presence of historic resources on their property, or who want to pursue development that would impact those resources, have an incentive to carry out demolition either by performing the work without a construction permit, or by simply neglecting their property until the historic resource becomes degraded to the point it poses a health or safety risk and loses its historical significance (demolition by neglect). The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) recognizes the value of historic preservation and requires all new projects that may have an impact on historical resources to be evaluated in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. The City's current Historic Preservation Program Guidelines also provide direction from the Secretary of the Interior's Standards to help guide what a property owner can do with their property when proposed changes may impact the significance of a historic resource. While the vast majority of property owners who pursue development on sites with historical resources follow these guidelines, the guidelines may run contrary to some property owner's goals. If a property owner wants to move forward with a project that would demolish, or otherwise adversely impact the significance of a historic resource, CEQA would require the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report, which can be a costly process. Unfortunately, the cost of this process can create an incentive to demolish historic resources outside of the normal review process. As a result, some jurisdictions in California have found it necessary to create preservation ordinances with fines and building moratoria to deter unpermitted demolition that may seem to be a less expensive option to the environmental review process. The decision by the City Council to update the COSE with Program 3.6.10 recognized the need for an ordinance to establish penalties for those that would seek to damage historic resources on their property as way to avoid maintaining or improving that resource as part of a future project. In addition, the ordinance provisions discussed below recognize the value to the whole community of a well-maintained stock of historic buildings, structures and other resources. In recognition of this community-wide benefit, a fund is proposed that would help provide financial resources for future preservation projects. Enforcement The draft Ordinance includes a section entitled "Non-Compliance with Provisions," which addresses enforcement actions specific to historic resources. This section specifies legal authority for enforcement, recommends penalties for violations, and describes property defects that could lead to structural failure and the subsequent need to demolish the historic structure - something the historic preservation program aims to avoid, if possible. The enforcement section of the draft ordinance has received the most divided public input to date and was discussed at length at the CHC meetings. Members of the preservation community have supported the need ?x.{5 , (0 Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines Page 7 for significant penalties in order to deter demolition by neglect whereas input from some homeowners indicates that addressing property maintenance and enabling the City to impose large fines goes well beyond what they envision to be appropriately addressed in the ordinance. The ordinance does not specify how frequently a historic property must be painted or address maintenance of non-historic aspects of property care. Rather; the proposed ordinance describes situations that represent conditions leading to demolition by neglect. Staff is recommending changes to the CHC-recommended draft to further describe this intent and these changes are shown in "track changes" mode for section 2.68.074 of the document included in Attachment 4. Penalties This CHC asked that a provision for substantial penalties be included in the ordinance to dis- incentivize unauthorized demolition including demolition by neglect. As a result, the following penalties are proposed: 1. Fines - The Council may assess a one time fine of up to $10,000 per violation and may assess a fine ranging from $100 to $5,000 per day, up to a maximum of 30 days, for continuing violations. 2. Building permit restriction—property owners may be prohibited from obtaining a building permit for up to five years from the date of unapproved demolition unless the permit is to correct a violation. 3. Loss of preservation benefits- Any historic preservation benefits previously granted to the property may be subject to revocation. 4. Restoration may be required. 5. Other remedies may be identified including the City taking action to have the maintenance performed at the owner's expense and if payment is not made, the cost would become a lien on the property. Many other jurisdictions have historic preservation programs that include penalties (see chart — Attachment 3) and discussions with staff in several jurisdictions that have large fines indicated that just having the ability to assign a large fine was often all the deterrent needed to ensure that historic properties were not allowed to deteriorate to the point that demolition was the only viable option. The intent of this section of the ordinance is to have a mechanism to address the most egregious instances where a historic resource is in danger of being lost .due to neglect whether benign or intentional. The question has been posed of why the City does not use its current ability to impose fines to address property maintenance issues. The City's current penalty procedures are enabled through an administrative fine process and implementation of the International Property Maintenance Code and Chapter 17.17 of the Zoning Code. While the International Property Maintenance Code includes general definitions of safety violations, the standards are primarily geared to address human health risks (i.e. pest infestation, venting, access and egress issues, provision of Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines Page 8 water/sewer/heat, etc.) and do not specifically address the types of property defects that could result in destruction of the integrity of a historic resource. The Zoning Code also contains provisions that address destroyed or damaged buildings, lack of finish materials and the idea that abandoned buildings may become attractive nuisances. However, the provisions specify timeframes that fail to address the sensitivity of historic resources and their vulnerability to loss of integrity due to neglect. Neither of the referenced codes includes penalties that would provide a serious dis-incentive to demolish the historic resource either through action or inaction. The Code Enforcement staff currently works with property owners to encourage voluntary compliance to correct any noted violations. This process can take weeks or months depending on the severity and type of violation. If the owner is unwilling to resolve the violation despite the City's efforts to achieve voluntary compliance, the City has the ability to cite the owner and assign an administrative fine. With the first citation, the fine is $100. The owner is provided a timeframe in which to pay the fine and to bring the property into compliance. This process may be repeated if correction of the violation does not occur—the maximum fine the City may impose under the administrative citation process is $300. If the owner is still unwilling to correct the violation and does not pay the fine, the only option available to the City is to pursue correction through the court system and to send the unpaid citation(s) to a collection agency. During this time (which can span many months or,years) the historic resource may deteriorate to the point where demolition for safety reasons is the only option remaining. The proposed ordinance provisions make such a de-facto demolition more expensive. Similar to current code enforcement practices, the City staff would work with property owners to achieve voluntary compliance under the new ordinance. Fines would be used as a last,resort. Staff is recommending an edit to section 2.68.073D to reflect that enforcement will be conducted in the same manner as the current administrative fine process. The CHC included an economic hardship provision at the recommendation of the State Historic Preservation Office. This provision would enable the Council to approve demolition or modification of a historic resource in a way that does not meet the standards of the ordinance if there is a documented economic hardship. New Historic Preservation Fund The Ordinance includes enabling language for the City to set up a preservation fund. The intent of this fund is to provide resources for historic preservation efforts and to support incentive programs such as loans or grants to assist with historic preservation. The initial drafts of the ordinance specified that any penalties collected from enforcement actions would be deposited into the historic preservation fund. However, public testimony indicated concern that the City would be much more aggressive in assigning fines in order to provide resources for the fund, which was not the intent. Therefore, the CHC removed the provision that connected penalty fines to the fund. Staff is recommending the provisions related to the Historic Preservation Fund be listed under a separate section than that related to non-compliance provisions. Any penalty fines collected will be deposited to the General Fund consistent with existing practice. Future Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines Page 9 resources for the fund may include, grant monies or General Fund monies should the Council assign them. Changes Proposed as Part of the Updated Historic Preservation Guidelines The Historic Preservation Guidelines have been in place since the mid-1980s and reflected the state of the City's historic preservation program at the time. As the draft ordinance was developed through the public hearing process, the CHC made changes to both the existing guidelines and the proposed ordinance. In response to SHPO's recommendation, the eligibility criteria and other procedural provisions contained in theguidelines were moved to the draft ordinance. This provided an opportunity for the Guidelines to provide more information regarding the historic nature of the City's districts and historic buildings as well as to provide design guidance specific to historic districts and properties. The Guidelines have undergone a wholesale change with most sections relocated to the draft ordinance and other sections removed in their entirety. Attachment 6 contains a chart that documents what occurred with each existing section of the guidelines. Threshold for demolition Section 3.6 of the Guidelines indicates that alteration of more than 25% of an historic structure's original building framework, roof and exterior walls, or relocation of the resource to a site outside the City limits is considered to be a demolition of that resource. The provisions exempt repairs that are consistent with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards. This threshold is more restrictive than the Zoning Code's definition of demolition which is triggered when more than 50% of the structure is affected. The CHC chose the lower threshold to reflect that historic resources can only retain their ability to communicate their history if the integrity of the structure, materials, and features has not been unduly compromised. The threshold is lower to reflect the increased vulnerability of historic structures to loss of historic fabric as more of the structure is altered. This section of the proposed Guidelines received much discussion among the architects and designers who reviewed and commented on the documents. Some felt the thresholds should be the same for both historic and non-historic resources. Others felt that while the Guidelines provide direction, they do not have the same force of law as is the case for the Ordinance. There are implications with the lowered thresholds: a project proposal to substantially alter an historic resource where more than 25% of the structure is changed might trigger a finding of"adverse impact" during the environmental evaluation of the proposal. This could lead to a lengthier and more costly environmental review process. However, the CHC felt that the lower threshold was an appropriate recognition of the importance of historic integrity to ensure that proposed changes did not negatively impact the resource. What is the benefit of having an ordinance and updated guidelines? Having an historic preservation ordinance will enable the City to apply to become a Certified. Local Government (CLG). This state program recognizes jurisdictions with historic preservation programs that are consistent with state and national historic preservation standards. The State -1 ti Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines Page 10 Historic Preservation Office has grant funds that are available only to communities with CLG status. While the grants are not large — typically $25,000 or less — these are funds that the City currently cannot apply for that could help fund preservation efforts. Becoming a CLG will also enable the City to access a State-wide community of CLGs where best practices and professional state of the practice discussions occur. However, the City must first adopt an ordinance that meets State standards. The current recommendation by the CHC will accomplish this first step. CONCURRENCES The Chief Building Official and City Attorney have reviewed the proposed Guidelines and Ordinance to ensure consistency with existing processes and authority and appropriate legal format. FISCAL IMPACT There are no fiscal impacts to the adoption of the proposed Ordinance and Guidelines. No changes are proposed to the development review process. Minor costs for copying and distribution will be incurred once the updated Guidelines and Ordinance are adopted however these costs were anticipated in the Community Development Department budget. ALTERNATIVES 1. The Council could request that changes be made to the Ordinance or Guidelines. Specific direction to staff would be needed. 2. The Council could adopt the Guidelines and not the Ordinance. This is not recommended because the eligibility criteria and process are described in the Ordinance. Without an adopted Ordinance the City would not be eligible for CLG status. 3. The Council could continue this item to a future date with direction to staff to return with specific information.

Expressed some concern that less than 75% retention of Commission historic structure could be considered a demolition. Requested that Folk Victorian style be added to the building styles section. Requested that styles an should also include local examples of each style. Provided some minor graphical edits. Reference to existing Community Design Guidelines would be helpful. CHC added Folk Victorian style to Chapter 5 as well as several addresses local examples for each style. Community Design Guidelines were referenced under section 2.5. Additional discussion of 75% retention -this section is meant to define what gets considered as part of the evaluation of demolition versus remodel. It addresses building integrity and also allows some flexibility to address those features for which removal might be more impactful (i.e. situations where they are character-defining compared to other circumstances where they do not contribute to the character or integrity of the historic structure). Distinguishing non-historic from historic is addressed under 3.1.2. Betsy Bertrando, Proposed ordinance typical of those used in over 300 California cities; historian strong ordinance needed to address demolition by neglect and "accidental" demolitions of historic resources; financial penalties seem low compared to value of historic properties; long term economic benefits from a preservation ordinance..Recommends merging local eligibility criteria with State standards. Draft ordinance has been prepared to follow state guidelines and address local conditions. Local eligibility criteria are now simplified and grouped under California Register Criteria. David Brodie There is an economic benefit to historic preservation because the history of a place is what people recognize, respond to and return to. The value of a historic resource is related to its setting and to the connection to what the place was at the time the resource was constructed. A copy of a historic resource does not work in the same way. An example of recognizing the importance of setting and resources may be found in Bath, Great Britain —the entire city has been listed. Don't lose what draws people to this community. Errors cannot be reversed — once a historic resource is gone it is irretrievable. If the Ordinance and Guidelines are adopted, who will enforce "demolition by neglect" provisions? City needs to have Attachment 1 inspectors who comb the City for these types of situations and actively enforce penalty provisions. Enforcement will be conducted through established enforcement process. The City will not have inspectors combing the City looking for violations. Russell Brown Expressed concern about objectivity of an applicant-provided structural report to determine the feasibility of repairing or restoring a historic building. While applicant is responsible for submitting structural reports, City staff, advisory bodies, and/or Council are responsible for reviewing adequacy of reports submitted regardless of who prepares them. Joseph Carotenuti, The historic ordinance and guidelines should not only attend to the historian preservation of historic structures but also to those who built, occupied, etc. the homes and buildings. It is people who make history; not simply structures. Historic significance criteria include association with persons and events important to the City's history. Preserved structures, sites and districts are often tangible links to historically important persons or businesses. Paula Carr, Clearer definition of historic"context" needed. Recommends definitions historian follow City of San Diego ordinance and link with definition with research and documentary. CHC moved environmental context criteria into section on Historic District consideration. Historic District descriptions include information on periods of significance, lot patterns, building styles and other pertinent information to assist with review of context. Robert Chattel, In historic eligibility criteria in ordinance and use criteria from architectural alifornia Register of Historical Resources; historic districts should follow historian same criteria; questions use of potentially contributing resource status; recommends Secretary of the Interiors Standards and primary source of local design guidelines; concerned about quantifying % of historic structure to be preserved; questions style guide Section 7 in guidelines, feels styles are incorrectly labeled; recommends the Downtown Historic District period of significance extend to the 1930s. SHPO indicated that eligibility criteria be included in ordinance. CLG program requires cities to "Maintain a system for the survey and inventory of historic properties"—cities may adopt their own eligibility criteria that reflect local conditions; values, needs, historic districts review criteria are listed in Section 4.2.4;potentially contributing section needs additional clarification, as noted in 4/26110 CHC agenda report, style nomenclature is highly variable and there is no single accepted standard — the CHC may choose to apply a different nomenclature than currently -2 - P1465 -l:)- Attachment 1 used, Downtown district period of significance revised to extend to the 1930s. Chamber Sub- Who bears cost of storage of significant architectural features if committee they are stored by City? Language added to clarify that the property owner would bear this cost. Since the option.is provided only with the property-owner's consent, the agreement would have to include agreement to share costs. Ordinance 2.68.065(c)(ii) Chamber Sub- Specifying performance to correct violation within 30 days may not committee be reasonable if violation involves structural issues. Owner may have to involve design professionals or engineers to develop plans for permits, etc. Allow additional time as long as owner is diligently pursuing correction of violation. Chief Building Official agrees that if violations involve requirement for engineered plans or other structural responses, performance within 30 days may not be possible. Language added to section to clarify this possibW Ordinance 2.68.072C Chamber Sub- Language that specifies each day as a separate violation results in committee misunderstandings in subsequent sections with a result of the possibility of fines up to $10,000 per day. Removing one sentence still allows initial fine of$10,000 with subsequent fines. CHC supported removal of the sentence since subsequent sentences allow fines for continuing violations. Ordinance 2.68.073D. June 2010 draft reflects updated language. Chamber Sub- Concern expressed regarding Guidelines Section 2.5 "Related committee Standards and Policies". Request to add clarification describing which standard or policy takes precedence in the case of inconsistency. This information is provided to illustrate other places where historic preservation policies are found, no changes are proposed. General Plan and implementation measures are consistent however building or fire codes may have more restrictive standards.. Health and Safety standards will always be implemented by the City. Chamber Sub- Architectural compatibility indicates that "new development shall committee not sharply contrast with, block public views of, or visually detract from....". Request to add the word "significantly" to the phrase "block public views of'. Concern is that ANY reduction in public view could result in finding of non-compliance. Edit accepted by CHC. June 2010 draft Guidelines includes change to 3.1.6. - 3 - Attachment 1 Chamber Sub- Throughout Guidelines— be consistent in referencing historic committee resource as a "listed resource". Edits made and appear in June 2010 versions of Guidelines and Ordinance. Chamber Sub- Enforcement fines are placed into Historic Preservation Fund (2.68.076). committee This will generate incentive for City to actively seek new violations to provide funds for historic preservation efforts. Intent was not to incentivize enforcement actions but rather to have some identified and related fund in which to place any enforcement fines collected. In order to address unintended perception, provision was changed. Capability to establish Preservation Fund is still included but enforcement fines and fund are no longer linked. Ermina Karim, The Chamber of Commerce values the history of the community Chamber of and recognizes historic preservation's role as an economic driver. Commerce The Chamber is requesting a third parry peer review to assist with information concerning how regulations get implemented. The Chamber also has a concern regarding the definition of"historic resource" which is very broad and includes things that may be "potentially eligible for local, State or National historic designation." Peer review was accomplished by Chamber task force comprised of architects, engineers, and attorneys review of documents. Edits have been incorporated in response and are reflected in June 2010 draft Ordinance and Guidelines. Category of"potentially contributing"has been removed. Chief Building Post-disaster provisions in ordinance should be clarified to address Official how they interact with FEMA and municipal code provisions for post-disaster activities Language modifications included in 2.68.064.

June 2010 versions reflect edits to address community preservation goals, legal authority, identification of body charged with administering ordinance, defining types of resources to be protected, defining types of activities to be regulated, consideration of economic hardship, define appeal process, and define enforcement measures. Fred Collins, 2.68.030C should reference "Native American Sites" not archaeological Northern Chumash sites. 2.68.040D should reference "Native American Sites" not Tribal Council archaeological sites. 2.68.076D should read "Native American Sites" not archaeological sites. Definitions: Archaeological Site should be referred to as a Native American Site. A Sacred Place may not have visible cultural materials present therefore this part of the definition should be deleted. The definition of Archaeological site is consistent with how it is defined in the Archaeological Resources Preservation Program Guidelines. Archaeological sites include: Prehistoric Native American archaeological sites; Historic archaeological sites,sites or natural landscapes associated with important human events; and Native American Sacred Places and Cultural landscapes. Staff recommends the definition in the appendix be edited to include the full spectrum of possibilities which might trigger designation as an archaeological site so that provisions are not limited to one particular component. Not yet incorporated into draft documents since comment was submitted after CHC recommendation. Staff will address as part of staff report that goes to City Council for consideration. Allan Cooper There may be a negative response from property owners regarding penalty provisions proposed but these provisions are needed. The City must make penalties associated with unauthorized demolition of historic structures costly so that there is a deterrent to demolitions. Concerns that the City Council is the body that will assign the penalties as this becomes a political process rather than an administrative one. Endorses the changes recommended by SHPO. Expressed concern that the decision regarding whether a historic building poses a health and safety issue to the point that it needs to be demolished is made by the Chief Building official. Building neglect can lead to demolition. Concerns about allowing the applicant to provide the structural report to demonstrate lack of feasibility to repair/rehabilitate a historic building and believes this to be a conflict of interest. Enforcement provisions are included in draft Ordinance and include fines. Established enforcement procedures will be followed. - 5 - PNs -t5 Attachment 1 Council has ultimate authority in assigning fines. Chief Building Official was identified as position with authority to determine health and safety issues— this is consistent with FEMA regulation and building code. While applicant is responsible for submitting structural reports, City staff, advisory bodies, and/or Council are responsible for reviewing adequacy of reports submitted regardless of who prepares them. Can the City set up separate fine structures for residential versus commercial structures to address homeowners' concerns about penalties? Ability to distinguish fines for commercial versus residential properties would not address impact of significant deterioration of an historic resource regardless of whether it is a residence or a commercial building. CEQA does not distinguish building use when evaluating impacts. Randy Dettmer, The Eligibility Criteria used for historic listing should be aligned with Architect the California Register—this allows streamlining of CEQA review. Local eligibility criteria are now simplified and grouped under California Register Criteria. The Eligibility Criteria should include an integrity provision. Integrity means that the physical characteristics from the period of significance have survived to a great degree. Historic resources must meet one of the criteria of significance and retain enough historic character or appearance to be recognizable as a resource and to convey the reasons for their significance. An integrity provision has been added under 2.68.053C. While other design guidelines may apply, the Secretary of the Interior(SOI) standards should provide primary guidance. Secretary of Interior Standards are specifically referenced in 3.4.5 of Guidelines. How is the requirement to retain 75% of a structure in order to be considered a remodel quantified? Make it clear what will be considered in determining the 75% (i.e. is it framing? Cladding? Interior work?) Guidelines define demolition as alterations of more than 25% of the original building framework, roof, and exterior walls. Repairs (i.e. rer000 would be exempt under Guidelines 3.6.3: Demolition - 6 - ?H5 - ib Attachment 1 thresholds. Style guide in the Guidelines (section 5.3) may be inaccurate and unnecessary. The "California Victorian" listed is not a style. Refer to A Field Guide to American Houses for accurate styles (i.e. . Queen Anne, East Lake, and others). Section 5.1 has been updated to reflect current naming conventions listed in A Field Guide to American Houses: Jeff Dillon, Multiple edits regarding language and intent. Architect CHC endorsed changes proposed and current June 2010 version incorporates edits. Vangeli Requested that the city prepare a map showing the addresses and Evangelopoulos locations of properties on the Master and Contributing Lists of historic resources. Addresses of properties on the Master and Contributing Lists of Historic Resources are provided in Section 5.3 and 5.4 of the Guidelines. The City has a map of all properties on a GIS map. Alex Gough Generally, the draft documents are knowledgeable and well-intended and perhaps a needed replacement and upgrade of work done in the early 80's. Concerns about "potentially significant" historic resources sections. Also concerned about enforcement of historic building maintenance. These sections should only address serious structural issues and not apply to contributing properties. The category of"potentially historic"has been removed from the proposed ordinance. Enforcement section has been slightly re-worded to reflect existing enforcement procedures(i.e. work with property owner for voluntary compliance). Building maintenance items included on list are those that could lead to serious structural or safety issues. These are provided as examples. Property maintenance is currently based on International Property Maintenance Code and/or California Building Code (as applicable). Proposed ordinance section provides additional information. Larry Hoyt, Concerned about"extending the power" of the CHC; recommends doing owner of historic a historic survey before an ordinance is adopted to become a Certified property at 868 Local Government (CLG); 1983 historic survey not accurate; disagrees Chorro Street with ordinance provisions regarding energy conservation, changes to historic structures, districts, adjacent properties; emergency response program; criteria for demolition of historic resources; CHC role continues to be advisory under the ordinance; to qualify for the CLG program, cities must first enact a historic preservation ordinance; ordinance clarifies procedures commonly used in nominating properties and determining what qualifies for listing, Draft ordinance is consistent with preservation ordinances in California and with state and federal law.. - 7 - IAS '� Attachment 1 Concern about enforcement provisions. Enforcement measures are flexible and require Council action. Additional language being recommended to refer to existing procedures. Concern about definitions. Definitions based on state guidelines and ordinances in other historic cities. Concerned that CHC composition does not require person who owns historic resource, has understanding of preservation law or history. No changes proposed to CHC membership. Current provisions include the desire to have members knowledgeable in local history, training or experience in architectural rehab or restoration, knowledge of architecture or architectural history and a person knowledgeable in archaeology. This does not preclude a historic resource owner to participate (in fact three current CHC members own listed resources). Disagrees with findings of purpose related to economic vitality. Research show historic properties retain more value and contribute to sense of place and historic tourism. Disagrees with use of"public health, safety and welfare" as part of purpose—not part of preservation case law. 1978 Supreme Court decision (Penn Central case) allows states and cities to enact land use restrictions to enhance quality of life by preserving character and desirable aesthetic features of the City. Court determined that it is not a taking and not discriminatory. Disagrees with concept of"embodied energy" of historic buildings— Rehabilitation standards allow replacement of materials. Embodied energy is one of many purposes listed and is a valid purpose to meet multiple policy desires of the City. It can remain a purpose and Secretary of the Interior Standards can still be applied to proposed changes to historic buildings. No conflict exists. Concerns about 2.68.012 G and H - language should say "advise" instead of"establish" or"fulfill'. Section 2.68.012 refers to purpose of the Ordinance not the purpose of the CHC which is covered under "Duties". Therefore the language is appropriate to call out the purpose of the ordinance. Concerns about wording under CHC duties—should reference that their role is advisory. Has concerns that adopting local standards may conflict with National or State Guidelines. - 8 - Attachment 1 CHC duties have been established by Council and their role has not been expanded. The CHC actions are still recommendations and this is called out in section 2.68.040. No conflict with NPS or State guidelines exist and ordinance has been amended to address State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) input. Concern about actions subject to CHC review includes "potentially contributing". "Potentially contributing"category has been removed. Concern about evaluation criteria - 50 years or less. Use Federal Register criteria instead. Definition of 50 years or less comes straight from California Register criteria. CHC asked that local criteria be grouped under and consistent with California Register criteria— this has been done. No changes proposed. Concern about 2.68.072A authority— how legislative body or advisory body can have enforcement power. Authority of bodies listed pertains to their specific area of expertise. While the CHC may be the designated body to determine historic significance, the process to address post-disaster action would still be followed and the Chief Building Official will retain decision-making power to determine health and safety issues. 2:68.07313— Failure to protect property language is concerning. Will the City arrest people in reliance on this language? Concern that ordinance should not include an economic hardship provision. Language "willfully or otherwise"-has been removed under property protection section. City has an established enforcement process that involves working with property owner for voluntary compliance. Only extreme cases will be considered for fines. Council will have final discretion on fines. Economic hardship provision added at recommendation of SHPO. Guidelines Concern about language in 1.2 and 1.3 being too florid. These sections provide description of early history. Guidelines are able to provide more descriptive language than ordinance. Concern about CHC duties in 2.3—should state everything is advisory. CHC duties are set by Council. The process is still advisory(through recommendations) but the CHC has the primary duty to initiate these items. - 9 - Attachment 1 Section 2.4—thinks policy direction for CDD director role should be clearly worded. This language reflects current practice of the CDD Director. 3.1 Standards limit creativity and represent"taking" since only same height building would be allowed. These are guidelines with illustration examples to reflect how building components fit together without requiring any one particular style. Graphic in next section clearly shows taller building as "compatible".. 3.4.3—Objects to threshold of 75% of building preserved in order not to be called "demolition". Wants to know what this threshold is based on. 50% is called out in Zoning Ordinance as demolition— CHC determined that historic buildings should be subject to a higher threshold in order to address integrity issues. Millie James What provisions are included in draft documents? Historic Property owner Staff provided a summary of changes. Tom Jess Suggested edits to include "consistent with materials used of a period addition." Section 3.4.5 of the Guidelines includes language which addresses the compatibility of materials in additions to historic properties. Gerald Johnson Expressed concern about how the location of properties in historic districts would affect new buildings on vacant lots. Section 3.1 of the Guidelines addresses new construction in historic districts. Graphics have been incorporated into the June 2010 draft to illustrate in-fill design concepts. Shelly Johnson Questioned the benefit of a property being designated "potentially San Luis Obispo historic". How would owners know what standards apply? The category of"potentially historic"has been removed from the proposed ordinance. June 2010 version of Ordinance reflects this direction. Michel Kalin Questions regarding building codes that will be used when change of Engineer occupancy is proposed (Incentives allow additional uses for historic structures). Post disaster.provisions are not clear as to who approves the engineer's report. Post disaster provision was clarified to designate the Chief Building Official as the one who approves the engineer's report. The Building Division will apply construction codes to determine necessary design criteria relative to safe occupancy of a structure. Bob Pavlik Indicated that hopefully there would be an economic disincentive - 10 - Attachment 1 for an applicant to provide a structural report that was skewed or inaccurate because the City would require the applicant to pay for another study or peer review of the report. The City has an obligation to exercise independent judgment and to review the information to ensure it is accurate and complete. Staff concurs. While applicant is responsible for submitting structural reports, City staff, advisory bodies, and/or Council are responsible for reviewing adequacy of reports submitted regardless of who prepares them. Peg Pinard Frustrated with City process for update to documents. Feels there has been a lack of neighborhood involvement. Staff has made repeated offers to attend neighborhood meetings. Discussion of notification and outreach conducted follows. Guidelines in place for over 30 years and current laws treat historic properties the same as every other home in the City. While the City has not had an Ordinance, the Guidelines have directed a different level of review for structures on the list of historic resources or within an historic district than structures not on the list or within a district. This has been accomplished through the development review process and no changes are proposed to that process though the standards are being relocated from the Guidelines to the Ordinance at the recommendation of SHPO. The City is giving itself more authority over homes. The City already has authority it needs. The proposed Ordinance contains new penalties and describes the types of conditions that lead to demolition by neglect. This is not new authority but rather more well-defined criteria. The penalties recommended are new. The current enforcement process does not have the larger fines proposed under the Ordinance. While it has enforcement ability through the administrative fine process, the penalties are not substantial enough to discourage demolition by neglect. The City's constitution under LUE 2.15E requires that the City will involve residents early in reviewing proposed public and private projects and this wasn't done. Staff unveiled a finished draft that did not have early input from the residents. LUE 2.15E refers to the desire to develop Neighborhood Wellness Plans where individual neighborhood needs would be explored and action plans (both public and private) would be reviewed with the residents. While notices were sent to every property owner of the 700+properties on the historic resources list, the historic preservation effort is not one that is generated by the neighborhoods but rather has been of city-wide interest Attachment 1 for over 30 years. The preliminary drafts were developed with input from the CHC. The public was invited to participate and help make the changes to reflect their input. Many changes were made in response to public input and the drafts considered by Council are much different than those that were originally presented to the CHC and public for discussion due to the input of the community and the State. This ordinance provides a stricter set of laws for those who happen to live in older homes. The proposed Ordinance and Guidelines affect all historic properties and districts. Historic structures are treated differently under CEQA and under the City's process already. The proposed documents do not change the City's process. What is not already covered under the existing Municipal Code and laws? The Ordinance provides additional clarification for what can lead to demolition by neglect and the penalties that could be assigned if Council felt it to be appropriate. An economic hardship provision has been added to the proposed ordinance and this is not covered under current regulations. The state policies support periodic inspections. How will the city implement and pay for these? City staff conducts periodic monitoring of properties with Mills Act contracts. Since owners under these contracts commit to making certain improvements in exchange for substantial tax credits, the owners are asked to provide documentation to the County Assessor on a yearly basis. City staff also follows up to do visual inspections from the street and ask owners for input on status of the improvements listed in their contracts. No additional work or changes are proposed. While the state may support periodic inspections, it does not REQUIRE them. How can residents be guaranteed the Ordinance will not be used as a source of revenue? The Ordinance provides the. Council the ability to enforce penalties. This provision requires a process including notice to the owner and a public hearing. The Council will require that any situation coming before them is well-documented and that a penalty hearing has come about as a last resort. Since this process is highly public, the Council will only take action on the most egregious situation. What prevents the City from expanding its jurisdiction and inspections to include the inside of our homes? Fourth amendment rights prevent the City from entering homes to - i 2 - -P Attachment 1 conduct inspections unless invited in directly or through a permit application. The current preservation program would allow an owner to request or an environmental review process to note a significant interior of a building—for example the Sauer ovens-as part of the resource's significance. No changes are proposed. Won't additional laws with severe fines and penalties drive away potential buyers? Research has shown that historic districts and structures maintain their value more than non-historic during even dire economic times. How is a person not in jeopardy of losing their home if the City's mandates and costs (for enforcement) keep mounting? The City's approach is to work with owners to resolve code violations. The proposed Ordinance does not change that approach and in fact adds a new economic hardship provision to address situations where owners are financially unable to comply. If the City is going to determine where and when a repair needs to be done, this will interfere with the normal market conditions and will have the effect of keeping such properties out of the reach of young families. The proposed Ordinance does not set out a maintenance schedule for historic properties. The provisions include a description of conditions which may lead to demolition by neglect. Market conditions will still apply. If the City cares about ability to live in historic parts of town, why haven't problems been addressed? Unsure what is being referred to or whether it relates to proposed ordinance and guidelines. Where does it say that original fixtures can be retained or that existing driveways can be replaced in the same configuration? The historic building code allows an owner to request different standards than current International Building Code requirements. Where does it say that an existing structure can be rebuilt to non- conforming situation? Section 4.1.1 of the Guidelines states this. The rental housing business license tax was supposed to be used to enhance livability and neighborhood needs. Why is the city not doing this? Unsure what is being referred to or whether it relates to proposed - 13 - TY �j ��3 Attachment 1 ordinance and guidelines. Additional comments regarding bars in downtown and associated vandalism and trash; delivery truck noise and damage in historic districts near downtown; graffiti on utility boxes that should be underground; adherence to noise standards and liability concerns for children standing under loudspeakers; parking issues for neighborhoods near downtown; Old Town not to get residential parking program approval; car alarms going off; traffic pattern changes in Old Town were not reviewed with residents; noisy traffic signs;transient population; lack of coordination between City departments; and the City not following its General Plan. Comments do not seem to address provisions in proposed ordinance and guidelines. Public comment The Eligibility Criteria used for historic listing should be aligned with the California Register and section on Integrity should be added. Local eligibility criteria are now simplified and grouped under California Register Criteria. Integrity section was added. Ordinance 2.68.053 A-C Pierre Rademaker Noted that the history of the people is as important as the structure in considering preservation, suggested that"historic contexts° be added as a requirement for historic preservation report. Requested that the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties be referenced in the "Treatment of Historic Resources" section of the Guidelines. The CHC approved the addition of"historic context"to the preservation report requirements. Section 3.1.1 of the Guidelines references the Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. The.June 2010 draft reflects both of these changes. State Historic Historic resource and district listing eligibility criteria should be in the Preservation Office Ordinance rather than the Guidelines. (SHPO) Changes made. June 2010 versions of Guidelines and Ordinance reflect this direction. SHPO Post disaster procedures should reference and be in accordance with Public Resources Code Section 5028 which pertains to Natural Disaster Damage to Historic Property. Done. June 2010 version of Ordinance 2.68.061 reflects this direction. SHPO Procedures for historic resource and historic district listing (in addition to eligibility criteria) should be in the Ordinance rather than the Guidelines. Changes made. June 2010 versions of Guidelines and Ordinance reflect this direction. SHPO Reconstruction may not be an appropriate response to an un-approved demolition of an historic structure under Penalties for Non-corn liance . - 14- S `aq Attachment 1 Provision 2.68.073D revised to specify restoration "may"rather than °shall'be required. June 2010. version of Ordinance reflects this direction SHPO Demotion definition should be succinct and conclusive. Example provided from City of Davis. Definition in both Guidelines and Ordinance has been updated to reflect recommended wording. June 2010 versions of Guidelines and Ordinance reflect this direction.. SHPO Various edits to language addressing historic districts (and the possibility that new ones may be allowed to form); reference to Historic Building Code (both CA Building Code and the State Historical Building Code); and definition of Survey. Definition in both Guidelines and Ordinance has been updated to reflect recommended wording. June 2010 versions of Guidelines and Ordinance reflect this direction.. SHPO Strongly encourage language that closely parallels National and CA Registry eligibility criteria. Done. CA Registry criteria now comprises headings under eligibility with simplified local eligibility criteria grouped below. SHPO Recommended language edits to address definition of historic district and to add criteria for historic signs. Recommended clarifications to historic resources report content and other edits for clarity in Guidelines. Done. Edits made, historic sign criteria added and report content clarified. June 2010 versions of Guidelines and Ordinance reflect this direction. Warren "Loss of income" insurance typically covers a business for up to 1 yr. Sinsheimer, following a disaster. If an ordinance such as the CHC ordinance delays Attorney and the time for a business to resume (after a disaster), that exposes the owner of historic business owner to increased risk unless the owner fully understands the property impact of,the ordinance. Violations imposed as a percentage of assessed property value may impact owners in different ways depending on the length of time the property has been owned due to Proposition 13 values. Ordinance Section 2.68.065 provides fora 90-day evaluation period following a disaster during which demolitions are not allowed, unless waived by Council. Demolition permit may require additional 90 days for noticing unless waived by building official for safety reasons. Violation fines have been stated as a set value rather than being set as a percentage of assessed property value. These changes are incorporated into the June 2010 versions of the draft Ordinance. Bob Vessely, Provided input Guidelines which deals with demolition of historic engineer structures. The use of the word "feasible" was questioned and Mr. -15 - Attachment 1 Vessely asked that language be clarified to understand what feasibility referred to — i.e economic versus structural feasibility. Recommends using state eligibility criteria with local adaptation and additional details. CHC added clarification that "feasible"refers to structural feasibility. Local eligibility criteria are now simplified and grouped under California Register Criteria. An integrity provision has been added. Barry Williams, Concurs with comments expressed by Mr. Dettmer. Peer review architect by a consultant would be helpful in order to have someone from outside the community provide insights from a users point of view rather than a regulator's point of view. See responses above. Peer review was accomplished by Chamber-task force comprised of architects, engineers, and attorneys review of documents. Edits have been incorporated in response and are reflected in June 2010 draft Ordinance and Guidelines. Greg Wynn, Pointed out a couple of places where statements should be "or" architect rather than "and" (and visa versa). Asked if eligibility criteria for architect could be changed from "master"to "notable". Also recommended deletion of 2.68.056B(c)— City staff usually provides the noticing list of owners, not the applicant. Changes were made to reflect these corrections. June 2010 drafts reflect changes. 19 Realtors Stock letter(identical language)from 19 separate realtors indicating information from resident in Old Town alerted them to upcoming changes in Historic Preservation Ordinance. Expressed concern that lack of time to review changes has been provided and that consideration of Ordinance be postponed until October. Notification has been provided to all owners of properties on historic resources list for public hearings. CHC hosted eight public hearings/workshops. ARC considered the Guidelines at a separate public hearing. City staff has done outreach through an interested persons email list comprised of 30+contacts, the local AIA, Chamber of Commerce, Downtown Association, Save our Downtown, and through conversations with residents and owners. An Additional workshop scheduled for August 26`" with mailed notice to all owners of properties on Historic Resources list, two display ads in the Tribune and an advertisement on the Community Calendar. Staff provided information at a SLO Association of Realtors meeting on September 7, 2010 and encouraged input and comments. -. 16 - C, attachment 1 Rosemarie Enforcement process is not spelled out and should be. Carrington Staff recommends that language be added to section 2.68.073D to refer to Administrative Code Enforcement procedures and guidelines.. Aug 26 1h Workshop Can City set up menu of penalty fees and relate to violations? For Participant example, could the ordinance address property and building defects under section 2.68.074B and identify the penalty that would apply? Including the ability to assign a $10,000 penalty creates uncertainty. Since every situation varies, it is difficult to assign a pre-set fee for a type of building defect. For example, if a building owner is cited for lack of complying with a request to address building elements that are in a condition where they may fall and injure members of the public, it may be a more serious issue if the building element is the key character-defining feature of a historic building than if it is an unremarkable later addition to that building. The same type of defect on different buildings or in different situations may be more or less critical depending on their individual circumstances. However, like the comment from Ms. Carrington, the enforcement process could be better explained and staff recommends adding language to section 2.68.073D to refer to both the code enforcement procedures and guidelines. The procedures and guidelines set up a progressive enforcement process which first and foremost attempts to achieve owner compliance through staff encouragement and assistance. Penalty fees are used as a last resort. - 17 - _� _ ttachinen 2 .O oA L N cC �I 0 bA O cz p b C) s ti N 151-1, � • G� o .. � � c � Q, � o ti O '- o w 'O CU 1017£6 VD `odsigp sin"IurS. 10-111S WIL'd 616 odsigp sin-I uES3o,44uD ton, u > s w yto E 1 tu ca Z go W cu rA Lu- L 'L .?P b aoi -'v G o a� b 'ce -o o o cu o U -o �ca + i cu „ 'o.

Purpose: California is a seismically active area. State-wide experience shows that earthquakes can seriously damage or destroy important historic buildings. The 2003 San Simeon Earthquake and 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake demonstrated that historic buildings can be lost through actions taken by public agencies after an earthquake. These actions usually occur within ten days after a declared emergency. This would also apply to damage by fire, wind and flood. The purpose of these regulations is to facilitate recovery following a disaster in a way that balances the need to protect public health and safety, the economic interests of property owners and the need to preserve the community's most important historic buildings. These standards implement and are consistent with California Public Resources Code _Section 5028 pertaining to natural disaster damage to historic properties. Goals: It is the goal of the City of San Luis Obispo to: (a) Continue to identify and designate archetypal or particularly significant historical structures within the City of San Luis Obispo.

To recommend approval of a demolition permit application, the CHC must determine that: i) The historic resource is a hazard to public health or safety, and repairs, stabilization, preservation or rehabilitation is not structurally feasible. Deterioration resulting from the neglect or failure of the owner to maintain the property need not be considered in making this finding. The applicant shall provide one or more structural reports to document that repairs or stabilization are not feasible. - 15 - Draft Historic Preservation Ordinance Attachment 4 June 28,2010 ii) Denial of the application will deprive the property owner of the economically viable use of the property, after application of financial, land use and other incentives available to the property. ii) The proposed demolition is consistent with the General Plan and the California Environmental Quality Act.

Historic resources include buildings and other structures, sites, landscapes, and other features that are significant in San Luis Obispo's history. Interest in historic preservation arises out of the community's desire to explain our past and serve as guideposts to the future. Federal, state and local governments have passed laws to protect historic properties that enjoy special merit based on age, architectural style, period, architect, owners or occupants and/or materials used. These guidelines reference those laws, but are sensitive to our community's special heritage as a California Mission community. As an advisory committee to the City Council, the CHC reviews development proposals to determine their effect on the City's historic districts. These guidelines apply to both private and public properties that either have or are considered to be historic resources. The maintenance and preservation of historic sites, structures, and objects is important to the community, and is a key factor in the City's popularity with tourists and in San Luis Obispo's strong "sense of place." To that end, we are all stewards in the preservation and upkeep of our community's rich heritage. From Terrace Hill, looking toward Chorro Valley, with Santa Rosa Street at the left, ca. 1890. -4- City of San Luis Obispo-Draft hrstoric Preservation Program Guidelinesr1..L ,.Lu..� June 2010 1.2 Our Town — San Luis Obispo Native Americans inhabited California's central coast, including the San Luis Obispo area, as early as 10,000 years B.C. Chumash and Salinan tribes benefitted from the region's mild climate, abundant resources and natural beauty. As a result, the Santa Barbara-San Luis Obispo region supported one of the most densely populated areas of pre-historic California. In the mid- 16`h century, Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo landed on the central coast in what was later to become Santa Barbara County, and began a period of dramatic change coinciding with the arrival of Europeans. By the late 18'b century, San Luis Obispo had become one of 21 communities in California founded by Franciscan missionaries. The Franciscans came to convert the Native Americans to Christianity and to strengthen Spain's control over Alta California. The mission church became the catalyst for the town's continued development; its plaza was a gathering place for work, trade and festivities. Around the mission, Chumash Indians built tule huts over willow frames while the first soldier-settlers and craftspeople constructed small adobe houses. Each group built structures in keeping with their particular cultural background and drawing from materials immediately at hand. The transition of California from Indian to Spanish to Mexican to American control also brought many changes in construction methods, architectural styles and uses of materials. Many of these cultural periods are still represented in San Luis Obispo's architectural heritage. As the early community grew, people from around the globe brought their culture, skills and ways of life. Consequently, San Luis Obispo's diversity in architectural styles and heritage reflects that diversity and enhances our quality of life. �. i. •_�� t Ly4 .••tea N���'h- ' I s � 4 Southern Pacific Railroad "Daylight"locomotive on the outskirts of San Luis Obispo, 1937 - 5 - City of San Luis Obispo-Draft historic Preservation Program Guidelines -- Attachment 7 June 2010 1.3 Why Preserve San Luis Obispo's History? The Town of San Luis Obispo began with the founding of the Old Mission in 1772. Over the past two centuries the community has experienced many changes. These changes can be appreciated because many of the older building and historic sites are still present. One has only to visit the central business district or wander through surrounding residential areas to imagine what is must have been like before the introduction of automobiles, flat screen television and computers. San Luis Obispo is blessed with original historic buildings and distinctive historic districts that many communities envy. Historic resources lend a sense of permanence and continuity; however, in some respects they are also fragile and vulnerable. The values and character they impart can easily be lost through neglect, demolition and inappropriate remodeling. Historic features have community benefits beyond their aesthetic qualities and educational value. San Luis Obispo's historic sites, buildings and other aspects of our "living history" are irreplaceable resources. They are important to the community's economic vitality, quality of life, and unique sense of place. As such, they merit protection from deterioration, damage, and inappropriate alteration or demolition. To promote understanding and an appreciation of its history, San Luis Obispo citizens have established these Historic Preservation Program Guidelines (hereafter "Guidelines"). By working with property owners, developers, neighborhood and civic groups and citizens, the community intends to preserve the most\`important hist oric;,and architecturally significant buildings and sites. a These Guidelines are administered by a seven-member citizens' group appointed by the City Council called the'Cultural.Heritage Committee`("CHC"). The duties of the CHC are further described in these Guidelines. The Committee, is"assisted by staff in the San Luis Obispo Community Development Department ("the.Department"). To contact the CHC or for more information, visit the, Department at 919 Palm Street in San Luis Obispo, or contact the Department at (805) 781=.7170, or www.slocity.org. - 6 - ���' 1.3 C, City of San Luis Obispo-Draft historic Preservation Program Guidelines — Attachment 7 June 2010 chaptCR 2: histowc pReseRvation paocuam 2.1 How to Use These Guidelines Historic preservation starts during the early stages of project planning and design. Property owners, developers, builders, design professionals and others involved in public or private development can use these guidelines to anticipate concerns and to design their projects to protect important historic resources and avoid delays during development review and construction. Highlights of where to find information in this document are listed below: a) To determine whether a property is currently listed on either the Contributing or Master List of Historic Resources see Sections 5.3 and 5.4 of the Appendices. To see if a property is located within a Historic District see Figure 3.1. b) For an explanation of treatment of Historic Properties, including construction in Historic Districts and on properties with listed Historic Resources; information on what is required in a historic preservation report; and requirements associated with the demolition or relocation of listed historic resources see Section 3.1-3.8. c) For an overview of historic preservation tools-and incentives offered by the City see Section 4.1: d) For information about the historic architectural;styles of structures found in San Luis Obispo or the predominant character-of the historic disiricis, see Sections 5.1 and 5.2. 2.2 Cultural Heritage C om mittee Originally ,esfAhshed_,by Council resolution in 1981, the Cultural Heritage Committee ("Committee', or "CHC") consists of seven citizens appointed by the City Council and represents the citizens of San Luis Obispo. The CHC advises property owners, developers, design'professionals, City,staff and, decision makers on ways to preserve the community's significant,historic and archaeological resources. The Committee's purpose and duties are established by ordinance (SLOMC ). The purpose of these\guidelines is to implement the City's historic preservation ordinance and to promote the public welfare through the identification, protection, enhancement and preservation of those properties, structures, sites, artifacts and other cultural resources representing the distinctive elements of San Luis Obispo's cultural, educational, social, economic, political and architectural history.

The Community Development Director ('Director") is responsible ,for interpreting and implementing these Guidelines and helping the CHC carry out its duties: Notwithstanding Section 2.3 of these Guidelines, the Director may determine that CHC review is'not"required for actions or projects that: 1) do not adversely affect-historic resources,'or 2) are:consistent with these guidelines and no public purpose would.Iiel served by requiring CHC review`. 2.5 Related Standards and Policies Historic preservation is,one of many community goals in the General Plan. It is part of the community's core values and identity. Preservation embodies the fundamental belief that sustainable, successful communities are those that respect, preserve and celebrate their history and`unique character. To,help ensure these valuable and finite resources will continue to enhance the lives of San Luis Obispo generations to come, the City Council has adopted several documents, in addition to these;Guidelines, that help protect these resources. They include: a) General Plan;Conservation and Open Space Element, adopted by Council Resolution No. 9785 (2006 Series) — Establishes citywide policies and programs regarding identification and treatment of cultural resources. b) Historic Preservation Ordinance, San Luis Obispo Municipal Code XXX — Establishes the CHC, its duties and describes procedures, historic listing criteria and procedures, incentives and sanctions for non-compliance. � 1r4.J.r ...n d City of San Luis Obispo-Draft historic Preservation Program Guidelines June 2010 c) Archaeological Resource Preservation Program Guidelines, adopted by Council Resolution No. 10120 (2009 Series) — Establishes procedures to be used for the protection of sub-surface cultural resources, both historic and pre-historic features. d) Community Design Guidelines, adopted by Council Resolution No. 9391 (2002 Series) — Establishes site and architectural design standards for development projects, including projects involving historic resources and historic districts, and demolitions. e) Demolition and Moving of Buildings — Appendix Chapter 2, Chapter 201 General, San Luis Obispo Municipal Code — Establishes procedures and requirements for the relocation or demolition of historic buildings. f) San Luis Obispo Zoning Regulations, Chapter 17.54 — Establishes the Historical Preservation Overlay Zone (H) and describes its purposes and application, allowed uses and property development standards.

The local mixture of styles reflects the desire of early San Luis Obispo residents and business owners to emulate the architectural styles prevalent in larger urban areas in the United States — styles which were themselves influenced by historic European architectural styles. In San Luis Obispo; most American architectural styles are present in large and small versions. Some are camouflaged by out-of-character additions or'remodels others represent a combination of styles adapted to the budgets, materials, skills and des_ign'prefeiences prevalent in San Luis Obispo during the building's period of construction (vernacular design). Thus, the architectural renderings below show styles as they should look in a traditional sense, and not all architectural elements will be present in a historic building of that style. To preserve the integrity and value of historic buildings, maintenance, repairs; remodels or additions should preserve or closely match "character-defining" architectural elements of that style, and not introduce extraneous or incompatible architectural features. Spanish Colonial.or'Adobe, Spanish Colonial style adobes.were the first permanent structures in San Luis Obispo, beginning with the Mission from which the town derived its name. Construction of the Mission began in 1772, but it.was not_until,the early'19°i century that adobe buildings became common. From the 1820s to:'the mid-1800s, the predominate type of structure was of adobe, and in a style characterized by small, single-storystructures, thick adobe walls, low sloping tile roofs and wood detailing. These early Spanish Colonial Style buildings, also referred to as simply "Adobe" style buildings, did not survive, but a few good examples from the mid- to late 1800s remain, such as the historic Rodriguez Adobe and the Rosa Butron Adobe. Adobe refers not only\i6j'he building type or style, but also to the type of construction. Adobe structures must,by definition, be built (at least partially) with adobe bricks—large, unfired bricks made with clay-type soil mixed with straw as a binder. The unreinforced adobe walls typically vary from one and one-half to six feet thick, resting on a dirt or rock foundation. Roofs are typically tile or wood shingle, resting on heavy wooden roof timbers. Door and window openings are normally surrounded by heavy timbers, often with a prominent timber lintel above window and door openings. Also, there are often arches and porches. If there is a second story it usually has a balcony with railings, a variation often referred to as the "Monterey Style." Of the remaining adobes in and around San Luis Obispo, most were built in the second half of the 1800s. Many were altered through the years with the addition of wood siding, composition -27 - City of San Luis Obispo-Draft 11is[oric Preservation Program Guidelines Attachment 7 June 2010 roofing, and exterior finishes that in some cases, obscured the adobe structure beneath. Clapboard siding was commonly used to protect adobe blocks from weathering, or to create a more stylish, ornamental appearance. In some cases, adobes were covered with a stucco or plaster finish.

Common to this architectural style are examples of European interpretations of classical architecture, including such styles as Gothic Revival, Stick and Eastlake, Queen Anne and Folk Victorian. Many houses within the Old Town and Downtown Historic Districts fall into this general category, often incorporating elements from different styles. This architectural style represents the more ornate;higher quality wood frame structures built between the late 1800s and the mid-1920s. Characteristic features include: -symmetrically arranged, double-hung windows -diamond shaped roof shingles -oval or narrow, tall windows -highly detailed ornamental.elements . -turret and cupola roofs prominentwood steps and porch -shingle facade or roof gable ends - post pierfoundation -steep gable or hip roofs -raised foundations _........._...—Tur-KaT ANO CUPOLA SfEE'Pt-Y ('I TGNGO (SGdP 511�U;IWffi fn1Ci-0 RGePS _ —5HIN6L5:.

Compared to the highly detailed ornamental elements and asymmetry that defined the Victorian styles, Colonial Revival buildings are symmetrical and relatively austere. Colonial Revival buildings are based on Georgian, Federal, and Dutch Colonial styles and are often fused with Neoclassical decorative elements such as classical porch columns. Closely related to the Colonial Revival style, the Neoclassical style was a popular style in San Luis Obispo from 1900 to the 1920s. Neoclassical style encompasses both the Classic Box and the Neoclassic Rowhouse. "Rowhouse" as used here refers to detached houses often seen in a row.

Strongly influenced by the Greene brothers, a design firm based in California, Craftsman houses featured less ornate detailing than the Victorian style but still relied on extensive use of wood for structural and exterior elements. This style is sometimes referred to as "Craftsman Bungalow." Characteristic features include: -raised concrete or wood porch with tapered columns clapboard siding or plaster exterior finish -medium to low pitch gable or hip roofs with side eave overhangs and dormers -wide roof fascia boards -open eaves with exposed rafters, often with custom work on rafter ends -post and pierfoundations -double hung wood windows with divided lights OMW WLT1t I-Yr 6wL -r mom.

As one of the City's oldest residential neighborhoods, Old Town was built up historically around the turn of the twentieth century, with older structures dating back to the 1880s. It consists of five subdivisions: the Mission Vineyard Tract recorded in March 1873, the Dallidet Tract recorded in 1876, the Murray Church Tract recorded in 1876, the Ingleside Homestead Tract, recorded in 1887, and the La Vina Homestead Tract, recorded in 1903. The District encompasses 86.1 acres, or 0.13 square miles. The District's prominent location, located just south of and uphill from the Downtown commercial district, made it a desirable neighborhood for the City's emerging merchant class and leading citizens. Here, residents were close to businesses and commerce,but could avoid the flooding and mud that plagued the Downtown. Home sites were laid out in regular grid patterns, with relatively wide (60 foot right-of-way) streets and 60 foot wide lots. The resultant wide streets and lot frontages allowed deep (20+ feet) setbacks and ample landscaping, reinforcing the district's prosperous image. Today the high concentration of 100 year old or older residences establishes the District's predominant architectural and visual character. Site Features and Characteristics Common site features and characteristics include: �. ' A. Prominent street yard setbacks of 20 feet or more B. Coach barn (garage) recessed into rear -- yard C. Finish floors raised 2 3 above finish grade D. Front entries oriented toward street with prominent walk, stairs and porch E. Front building facades oriented parallel to street 1060 Pismo Street, South Elevation - 40 - -1 S/�' � City of San Luis Obispo -Draft historic Preservation Program Guidelines June 2010 Architectural Character In keeping with its peak period of development between 1880 and 1920, the Old Town District has many examples of High Victorian architecture, a style popular in California during that time period that reflected prosperity, power and discriminating taste. This included several style variations, such as Queen Anne, Italianate, Stick and Gothic Revival influences, especially along the top of the hill within the district roughly aligned with Buchon Street. Other, more modest structures with simpler styles abound in other areas of the district. These buildings were first home to the burgeoning merchant class in San Luis Obispo that emerged during the turn of the century. These styles include Neo-classic Row House, Folk Victorian, and Craftsman Bungalow, with many homes borrowing architectural details from several styles. Most of the houses in this district were designed and constructed by the homes' first occupants or by local builders and were influenced by architectural pattern books of the time period. The shared first story porches along Pismo Street are a good example of a common design feature linking buildings. Predominant architectural features include: x � A. Two- and rarely three-story houses B. Mostly gable and hip roof types ' C. Highly ornamented roof features, +, including prominent fascias, i bargeboards, gable end treatments, _ decorative shingles,shingles, prominent -- — `- pediments or cornices i<< '• D. Traditional fenestration, such as double-hung, wood sash windows, ; divided light windows, ornamental front doors, wood screen doors E. Painted wood surface material, including siding and decorative moldings 1543 Morro Street, East Elevation Although many of the buildings were built at separate times, the pattern, rhythm and repetition of common design elements or detailing of historic building facades along Old Town streets creates a prevailing theme and character for the district. Individually Contributing Elements in the ' Old Town District Some buildings within the bounds of the Old Town District, constructed outside of the period of significance for the district, 1880- 1920, do not share the elements outlined in - - the above description, but have achieved LI M.F. Avila House, 1443 Osos Street, East � 1 Elevation City of San Luis Obispo- Draft fifstoric Preservation Program Guidelines June 2010 historical significance on their own and therefore individually contribute to the historic character of San Luis Obispo. The M.F. Avila House at 1443 Osos Street is an example of a Spanish Revival style building built in the late 1920s that has been placed on the City's Master List as a significant resource, in this case for its craftsmanship as well as its association with a historically significant local person. St. Stephens Episcopal Church at 1344 Nipomo Street built in 1873 is an example of Carpenter Gothic style. The first Episcopal church in San Luis Obispo County, St. Stephens is historically significant both its architecture and its association with the pioneer period of San Luis Obispo.

The historic Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa is at the geographic and historic center of the district, which is bounded roughly by Palm and Marsh Streets on the north and south, Osos and Nipomo Streets on the east and west, plus Dana Street as the northwest corner. Although some structures date to the Spanish and Mexican eras (1772-1850) and the American pioneer settlement era (1850x- 1870), the majority of surviving structures date from the 1870s to the 1920s. The district is comprised of two subdivisions: the Town of San Luis Obispo, recorded 1878 and the Mission Vineyard Tract recorded in March of 1873. The Downtown Historic District has an area of 61.5 acres and in 2010 includes 98 designated historic structures. The Downtown Historic District was developed,along,the City's earliest commercial corridors along Monterey, Higuera, Chorro, Garden and Marsh Streets, and has retained its historical use as San Luis Obispo's commercial and civic center. Commercial structures were laid out in a regular grid pattern, with buildings set at the back of sidewalks and relatively narrow (60 foot right-of-way) streets. The resultant narrow streets and zero building setbacks reinforce the district's human scale and vibrant Main Street image. Site Features and Characteristics Common site features "and characteristics include: A. Buildings located at back of sidewalk with zero street and side setbacks B. Finish floors at grade C.

Architectural styles present in the Downtown District include examples of Classical Revival, Italianate and Romanesque structures, and more modest early American commercial. Although a few structures were designed by outside architects (specifically from San Francisco and Los Angeles), the majority of Downtown -44 - Pte--i?� City of San Luis Obispo-Draft historic Preservation Program Guidelines June 2010 buildings were designed and built by local builders, including the Maino family, John Chapek, and Frank Mitchell. Predominant architectural features include: 4 A. One to two stories (occasionally three) B. Flat or low pitched roof, often with a parapet C. Wide entablature or projecting cornice that often 46 includes classical architectural details such as dentils,brackets and molding D. First floor windows are horizontally oriented storefront windows, often with display space facing street. In multi-story structures, windows - T are vertically oriented, typically with double hung, wood sashes, and symmetrically arranged so that they are dimensionally taller than their width E. Structures follow simple rectilinear or "boxy' -" — buildings forms F. Masonry or smooth stucco wall siding G. Contrasting bulkheads along base of street fagade Smith Building and Union H. Use of awnings, historic signs, second-story Hardware Building, 1119 and overhangs and canopies 1129 Garden Street, East I. Use of transom windows above storefronts Elevation Individually Contributing Elements in the Downtown District Not all historic resources in the Downtown Historic District were built during the district's period of significance of 1870-1930. These buildings generally do not exhibit the signature architectural elements described above but do contribute to the historic character of San Luis Obispo in their own right based on age, architectural �•' °P style or historical association. By virtue of their significance, these resources also merit preservation. For example, the Doton Building is an example of Streamline Moderne architecture from the 1930s. This _ building was placed on the Master List as a significant resource due to its craftsmanship and the rarity of this particular style in San Luis Obispo. Additional examples include the Laird building at 1023 Garden. Built in the - - 1880s, the Laird building is one of the City's last remaining Pioneer False front buildings. The Golden State Doton Building, 777 Higuera -45 - f Street, North Elevation Si ' City of San Luis Obispo-Draft historic Preservation Program Guidelines June 2010 Creamery building at 570 Higuera is historically significant to San Luis Obispo for its association with the dairy industry, an industry integral to the City's development. Non-Contributing Elements in Downtown Non -contributing buildings are those that both do not meet the criteria outlined above and have not achieved historical significance. Most of the post-1950 contemporary buildings in the district fall into this latter category. Non-contributing architectural styles, e materials or site features include: { A.

As originally developed, Chinatown is an enclave within the Downtown Historic District, and extends one block along both sides of Palm Street between Chorro and Morro Streets. Chinese immigrants arrived in San Luis Obispo in the 1870s and were instrumental in the construction of many transportation projects, including the Pacific Coastal Railroad (1874), the Paso-Cambria Road (now Highway 46) (1876), and sections of the Southern Pacific Railroad.(1886-1894), as well as providing other goods and services for the community. The Chinatown Historic District comprises a small part of the City's original subdivision, the Town of San Luis Obispo, recorded in 1878. It is a very small historic district with an area of 4.4 acres and has 11 designated resources including one listed on the National Register of Historic Places (Ah Louis Store). The 800 block of Palm Street was the residential, cultural and commercial center for San Luis Obispo's Chinese citizens, beginning in the late 191h century and lasting for around 70 years. The surviving structures span the district's period of significance, 1884-1945. Although many of the original wood structures in Chinatown were demolished in the 1950s to make room for public parking, the City established a historic district to recognize and preserve the area's remaining historic features. Site Features and Characteristics Common site features/characteristics include: A. Buildings located at back of public sidewalks with zero setbacks B. Finish floors at grade level. �h C. Recessed front entries oriented toward the street F -- D. Front facades oriented parallel and r- facing the street E.

The Mill Street District is part of one subdivision, The Town of San Luis Obispo, recorded in 1878, although the area informally has been referred to as Fremont Heights. For its land area, Mill Street Historic District has the highest concentration of historic structures of the City's five Historic districts. It is a relatively small district, with an area of 20 acres or 0.03125 square miles, and as of January of 2010 had 84 listed historic properties. The Mill Street district was developed at the turn of the 19`h century, with the majority of the existing buildings dating from the 1900s to 1920s, the district's primary period of historical and architectural significance. The district was developed on high ground with originally very wide (100 ft) lots in response to both the seasonal flooding and fires that plagued early development in San Luis Obispo. A few of these wide lots remain in the 1300 block of both Mill Street and Palm Street,but the majority of them were later re-subdivided into 50-60 foot wide lots. Site Features and Characteristics Common site features and characteristics include: A. Trees spaced at regular intervals along the street (especially on Mill Street) B. Distinctive Camphor Trees lining both sides of Mill Street between Johnson and •'-Y. ' r` Pepper, a key entry corridor for the A district C Consistent street yard setbacks of 20 feet o �Z - ♦ ✓..< D.

Front building facades oriented parallel to street Architectural Character Developed during a population boom in San Luis Obispo circa 1900s-1920s, the district's residential architectural styles reflect the prosperity of its residents. While older and more elaborate residences are located on the 1300 block of both Palm and Mill Streets, the majority of - 53 - q)H1'S7 /0 3 City of San Luis Obispo -Draft historic Preservation Program Guidelines June 2010 historic homes were more modest residences. The close proximity to the court house meant that Mill Street was home to many county employees, including county assessors, attorneys, and county clerks. The Mill Street District encompasses many different architectural styles, including revival styles popular at the turn of the twentieth century. These styles include Neo-classic Row House, Victorian (with elements of Gothic Revival, Queen Anne, Stick and Eastern Shingle), Tudor Revival, Mission Revival, and Craftsman Bungalow, with many homes borrowing architectural details from more than one style. Most buildings in this district were built by local builders, including E.D. Bray and James Maino and were influenced by architectural pattern books of the time period. Predominant architectural features include: A. One- and occasionally two-story houses B. Mostly gable and hip roof types C. Traditional fenestration, such as double-hung, wood sash windows, ornamental front doors, wood screen [:, - — -�, :�• doors �� D.

The district is bounded by railroad right-of-way on the east, from Johnson Avenue on the north to Orcutt Road on the south, on the northwest generally by Leff Street, and on the west by Broad Street and the railroad right-of-way. The district includes a residential and commercial area on the west side of the tracks, and abuts the Old Town Historic District along its northwest and north boundary. The Southern Pacific (or "Espee") standard gauge railroad arrived in San Luis Obispo on May 4`h, 1894. By 1901, San Luis Obispo was a part of the completed railroad line from San Francisco to Los Angeles, and served as the main layover and maintenance yard for the coastal route. The SP railroad operated in tandem with the older, narrow gauge railroad, the Pacific Coast Railway, or PCR. The PCR was a regional railway with a station on South and Higuera - the development of a spur line along South connected the PCR with the Southern Pacific rail yard. The Railroad District is a part of nine older subdivisions: the Beebee Phillips Tract recorded in 1874, Fairview Addition recorded in 1887, Haskins Tract recorded in 1887, Ingleside Homestead Tract recorded in 1887, the McBride Tract recorded in 1887, the Loomis Addition recorded in 1887, Maymont Addition recorded in 1888, Loomis and Osgood Re-subdivision recorded in 1894 and the Imperial Addition recorded in 1897. The Railroad District has an area of 80.7 acres or 0.126 square miles and 38 designated historic structures. Development in the Railroad Historic District corresponded to the development of the Southern Pacific Railroad yard. Commercial and residential buildings were constructed to accommodate railway workers, freight and passengers, and employees of Southern Pacific and related businesses. Surviving historic structures date from 1894 to 1945, corresponding with the peak activity of the rail yard and the district's period of significance, and most were constructed from 1894 to 1920. The buildings were laid out in a fairly regular grid near the station, accommodating the curve of the rail line and the diagonal path of Santa Barbara. South of Upham the lots are much larger to accommodate the railroad structures. Site Features and Characteristics Common site features/characteristics include: - A. Commercial buildings located at r `fit back of sidewalk with zero street —� setbacks _ . B. Front building facades oriented parallel to street C. Finish floors at grade D. Recessed front entries oriented �"�'� toward the street Channel Commercial Company, 1880 FSS - 57 - Santa Barbara Avenue, West Elevation City of San Luis Obispo-Draft historic Preservation Program Guidelines - - June 2010 Architectural Character The predominant architectural style within the Railroad Historic District is Railroad Vernacular. Railroad Vernacular is characterized by simplicity of form and detailing, with wood, brick or plaster siding, and is a style favored by railroad construction for its easy construction. As a practical vemacular style it also incorporates other elements of other architectural styles including Classical Revival and Mission Revival. Although many of the buildings within the district were not constructed by the railroad, their use of Railroad Vernacular styles design reflects the unifying focus of the district. The buildings in the Railroad District are a mix of simple, yet elegant houses and practical, industrial-oriented commercial buildings, which create a distinctive neighborhood. The architectural character and important historical elements are described in the Railroad District Plan. The Plan includes design guidelines that illustrate architecturally compatible design treatments for new development. Predominant architectural details include: A. One- and two-story buildings predominate B. Gable and some hip roof types of low to medium pitch, occasionally with parapets C. Predominantly painted wood siding, 3 with some masonry or smooth plaster 3 wall siding — _ D.

Purpose: California is a seismically active area. State-wide experience shows that earthquakes can seriously damage or destroy important historic buildings. The 2003 San Simeon Earthquake and 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake demonstrated that historic buildings can be lost through actions taken by public agencies after an earthquake. These actions usually occur within ten days after a declared emergency. This would also apply to damage by fire, wind and flood. The purpose of these regulations is to facilitate recovery following a disaster in a way that balances the need to protect public health and safety, the economic interests of property owners and the need to preserve the community's most important historic buildings. These standards implement and are consistent with California Public Resources Code Section 5028 pertaining to natural disaster damage to historic properties. Goals: It is the goal of the City of San Luis Obispo to: (a) Continue to identify and designate archetypal or particularly significant historical structures within the City of San Luis Obispo. Such properties are identified by the Council as having the highest historical value by virtue of their unique architectural, historical or cultural significance, and are included in the Master List of Historic Resources. - Attachment 8 Ordinance No. (20 10 Series) GPI 72-09 Historic Preservation Ordinance Page 15 (b) Continue to preserve Master List resources and provide for their stabilization, restoration and/or reconstruction in the event of a disaster such as earthquake, fire, windstorm, or flooding. (c) Establish post-disaster historic preservation procedures that are consistent with state and local law, and specifically SLOMC Section 15.48; and (d) Establish an Emergency Response Committee that will develop, implement and monitor procedures for stabilization or demolition of Master List buildings which are damaged by an earthquake or other disaster. (e) Integrate post-disaster historic preservation with the City's disaster planning and emergency response protocols. 14.01.062 Emergency Response Committee (ERC) established. (a) The Council hereby establishes an "Emergency Response Committee" (ERC). The ERC's membership shall consist of. i) Community Development Director("Director") ii) City Engineer iii) Chief Building Official iv) Fire Marshall v) Cultural Heritage Committee member vi) Citizen Architect or Engineer (b) The Council, upon the recommendation of the Committee shall appoint members under subsection (a)(v) and (a)(vi), and shall appoint alternates for both positions. Committee members shall serve on a volunteer basis for 2-4 year terms. (c) City officials on the Committee may be represented by their designees. The ERC shall meet as needed, and shall be convened by the Director. All decisions shall require a majority vote of the quorum of ERC members. A quorum shall consist of four Committee members. (d) The citizen architect or engineer should be knowledgeable in historic building construction and preservation methods, to assist the City and owners of historically-listed buildings.. (e) The citizen architect or engineer should be registered as a Disaster Service Worker with the Office of Emergency Services. 14.01.063 Provisions and fee waiver. ws -a3� Attachment 8 Ordinance No.(20 10 Series) GPI 72-09 Historic Preservation Ordinance Page 16 If a Master List resource is damaged by a disaster, the following provisions shall guide actions of the City and owners of Master List properties. City development review and permit fees for restoration or reconstruction of Master List properties may be reduced or waived by the City Council to facilitate preservation of significant historic resources and to expedite recovery from the disaster. 14.01.064 Stabilization of historic buildings. Within the first 90 days of a disaster, the City shall work with the property owners and all agencies concerned for the shoring and stabilization of Master List buildings that the ERC or Chief Building Official determines to be hazardous buildings. The following provisions shall apply unless waived by the Council: (a) As per SLOMC 15.48, placards shall be used to identify buildings the Chief Building Officer determines to be restricted or unsafe to occupy. In addition, buildings on the Master List of Historic Resources that are determined to be restricted or unsafe to occupy shall be clearly labeled by the City with the words "Master List Historic Building- This Placard is not a Demolition Order." (b) Members of the ERC shall be "on-call" as stated in Section 14.01.062(e), and should be able to assist disaster personnel and advise owners on emergency stabilization measures for Master List resources, consistent with City authority granted by law under emergency conditions. (c) City shall maintain a list of qualified architects and engineers, and make the list available to owners of Master List resources, to assist in preparing shoring and stabilization programs. (d) Owners of Master List resources shall submit a written report prepared by a qualified architect or engineer, outlining shoring and stabilization measures to be taken to the ERC for review and recommendation to the Chief Building Official for approval.

Recommendations regarding stabilization methods and emergency demolition shall be made by the ERC. (a) Within 90 days of the initial date of the disaster, demolition permits shall not be issued unless the Director or Chief Building Official, upon the recommendation of the ERC, determines that earlier demolition is necessary to: i) eliminate an imminent, demonstrable threat to human life and/or undamaged property on adjacent streets or sites; or ii) provide access for emergency vehicles and personnel where no alternative route or service strategy is available. (b) After 90 calendar days following the initial date of the disaster, the issuance of demolition permit for a Master List building is subject to the normal permit processing procedures for demolition or relocation of historic buildings. The CHC shall make a recommendation to the Architectural Review Commission regarding demolition of Master List buildings. To recommend approval of a demolition permit application, the CHC must determine that: i) The historic resource is a hazard to public health or safety, and repairs, stabilization, preservation or rehabilitation is not structurally feasible. Deterioration resulting from the neglect or failure of the owner to maintain the property need not be considered in making this finding. The applicant shall provide one or more structural reports to document that repairs or stabilization are not feasible. ii) Denial of the application will deprive the property owner of the economically viable use of the property, after application of financial, land use and other incentives available to the property. ii) The proposed demolition is consistent with the General Plan and the California Environmental Quality Act. (c) To assist in the determination required by subsection (b), property owners shall submit a written report prepared by a licensed architect or engineer, knowledgeable in historic building construction, assessing the condition of the damaged building and evaluating strategies and costs for its restoration or reconstruction.

The Board, at its September 14 meeting, declared unanimous support for the ordinance however voiced the following concerns: 1. The Board would like to see further development of provisions for financial assistance to current owners of historic properties (or those who inherit historic properties)who may be financially unable to comply with the ordinance. As much consideration as possible should be given to those owners who are on fixed incomes or are `at risk' of falling into noncompliance due to financial circumstances in the areas of grants, matching funds, loans and subsidies once the necessary steps are taken to qualify the recipient for such assistance. While the goal of the ordinance is preservation of historic properties and thus preservation of a community's heritage, the properties ultimately belong to the property owner and no ordinance should be overly onerous for property owners to the community's benefit. 2. The Board feels the fines for noncompliance"up to$5,000"per day seem overly punitive. Perhaps the amount and/or wording could be refined to reduce the negative response that that amount seems to generate. Background and history for this recommendation A subcommittee of the Board was formed in early summer to research the draft ordinance in detail and make a report and recommendation to the Board. Subcommittee members: ■ Pierre Rademaker, Downtown Association Board member and former president, member Economic Activities Committee, Downtown business owner, graphic designer, Chair of Downtown Design Concept team and historic property owner ■ Alex Gough, Downtown historic property and business owner, member of historic inventory and guidelines team (1980s), former board member, realtor, member Economic Activities Committee ■ George Garcia, architect, member Economic Activities committee, developer and owner of historic property ■ Deborah Cash, Executive Director, Certified Main Street Manager The Downtown Association, a Main Street®organization and recipient of the 1999 Great American Main Street Award from the National Trust for Historic Preservation's Main Street Program®, is committed to the concept and ideals of historic preservation through its participation in the National Trust's Four Point Program of Downtown revitalization. I Certainly the Downtown Association has much at stake in wanting to preserve the historic aspects of the Downtown, develop a sense of place and work with the City to achieve high standards of preservation. In fact, the basis of the Downtown Association's work plan programs is the Four Point Program of Organization, Economic Revitalization, Promotions and Design. The program was developed with the knowledge that downtowns—and the historic properties within them—are worth saving and are vital to the nation's economy and history; the four points are the guidelines for the activities a Main Street®organization should follow to restore, rehabilitate and operate historic downtown areas. In reviewing the draft ordinance, the subcommittee found opportunities to support the draft recommendations based on the ordinance's compatibility with the Downtown Association's Strategic Plan as shown: Strategic Goals 2.4 Encourage additional development and commercial opportunities The Association will continue to support infill development that contributes to a dense, cohesive Downtown area. While this particular statement is described in the Plan in terms of mostly new or re-use development,over the past several years, this has come to include retrofitted properties that are maintaining historic elements while going on to satisfy the intent of the statement. Some examples would be the Warden Building, the proposed Garden Street Terraces and Chinatown projects, the Stream Building, the Wineman Hotel. Preserving the key historic features and turning commercial properties into residences, offices, shops and restaurants blends historic preservation and economic development principles perfectly. 3.4 Strengthen tourism attraction As a result of declines in tourism in the early 2000's, the City developed the Tourism Marketing Plan 2003 to increase TOT revenues by improving the City's brand image, encouraging longer stays and developing strategic alliances with destination organizations like the Downtown Association. One of the recommendations of this goal is to Promote Heritage Tourism: The popularity of Downtown as a tourist destination is due, in part, to its historic character. Historic architecture, the Mission, the Chinatown Historic District and the Downtown's designation as a recipient of the National Trust for Historic Preservation's Distinctive Destinations in America should be prominently featured in all promotional materials. It's not surprising that people visiting Downtown SLO from out of the area are drawn to view and photograph the historic structures like the Sinsheimer Building, JP Andrews Building, Sauer Adams Adobe, Carnegie Library,The Creamery and many others. 4.1 Support higher density projects as appropriate The Downtown Association will monitor and support General Plan policies and proposed zoning changes to increase allowable height and intensity limits to encourage residential and hotel construction. r I Again, given that some of Downtown's historic buildings are in the process of being retrofitted, it makes sense to allow increased density that will provide for the return on the investment of saving an historic building for adaptive reuse as opposed to demolishing the building. Historic preservation guidelines that allow for this flexibility in order to preserve, rather than lose, the structure are encouraged. 5.1 Maintain high level of cleanliness and maintenance A key feature typically linked to restored and preserved structures is their owners and managers tend to provide a high level of care and maintenance, showing their pride in their properties and protecting their investments. While the City provides services to the public areas,business and property owners are encouraged to augment this service with ongoing building maintenance; guidelines for historic preservations enhance the encouragement for property owners to comply. Further, the City's standards for Mission Style sidewalks, as suggested in the Measure Y initiative,provide an attractive complement to historic properties and should be encouraged in these developments. 5.5 Protect Downtown's historic resources San Luis Obispo has a rich cultural heritage and an informal citizenry who value and protect that heritage. Special interest is focused on the Downtown area. The Downtown Association recognizes that historic resources ad to the special character that makes Downtown so attractive to shoppers, visitors and investors and will work to protect historic character. ■ Support the Cultural Heritage Commission's (CHC)efforts to update City preservation codes and processes. The Association will provide input as appropriate. ■ Support CRC's efforts to update historic inventories. Most of the City's inventories of historic structures was done in the 1980s. Encourage the City, as appropriate, to update inventories of Downtown properties. ■ The Association will support General Plan policies that protect, incorporate or mitigate the impact of new development on historic resources. ■ Promote seismic retrofitting. Eighty-four un reinforced masonry buildings in Downtown were subject to the City's seismic safety mitigation plan. Thirtyfive of these buildings are on the Master List of Historic Resources. ■ Promote compliance with the Hazard Mitigation Plan in a positive manner to owners and tenants. 7.2 Encourage use of City policies that will facilitate post-disaster rebuilding ■ Work with the City to ensure that damage assessment procedures and forms make it easy to clearly document damage to the architectural features of Downtown's historic buildings and that appropriate personnel are trained in their use. Review California Preservations Foundation's model documents. ° Work with the City to ensure that any special post-disaster building repair ordinances include repair standards and design guidelines and a streamlined process for reviewing and approving the increased number of building permits that could result from a disaster. These standards could also streamline the rebuilding of historic buildings in-kind. 7.4 Include DT business recovery issues in citywide disaster planning activities The Downtown Association should have a representative at the City's Emergency Operations Center during drills and actual disasters to provide the information contained in the Association's Disaster Plan. Outside of the these compatible objectives, the Downtown Association, as a Certified National Trust Main Street program, also believes that precepts in the Main Street guideline provide further areas for support: Rehabilitation Tax Credits A tax credit is a dollar for dollar offset against taxes payable. The rehabilitation tax credits are available in two levels. The historic property tax credit represented 20 percent of the qualified rehabilitation expenditure if the following tests are met: the property is an individually listed building in the national Register of Historic Places, or is a contributing building in a National Register Historic District or is a qualifying local historic district. The total expenditure is the greater of$5,000 or the basis in the building, called the substantial rehabilitation test, and the work is done in compliance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. Depreciable properties held for use in trade or business or as an investment property are eligible. The non historic credit is available for buildings that were constructed before 1937 but are not historic properties; there are no rehabilitation standards and the credit is only available for commercial properties. (From National Main Street Center, Certification Institute in Professional Downtown Management) Further, the government's Historic Preservation Services Tax Incentive manual states, "Historic buildings are tangible links with the past. They help give a community a sense of identity, stability and orientation. The government encourages the preservation of historic buildings through various means.. One of these is the program of Federal tax incentives to support the rehabilitation of historic and older buildings. The Federal Historic Preservation Tax Incentives program is one of the Federal government's most successful and cost-effective community revitalization programs...rewarding private investment in rehabilitating historic properties such as offices, rental housing and retail stores." Therefore, City-established guidelines and ordinances that promote eligibility in these programs are supported by the Board. The Board applauds the Council's and city staff s dedication to the preservation of historic properties and is hopeful that a final document will rely heavily on incentives and positive motivation in ensuring compliance.

We are out-of-town owners and cannot attend the hearing on 9/21. We wish to have our concerns expressed to the City Council prior to or at the hearing. It appears this Ordinance is much more draconian than I first believed two or so years ago when the subject first came to my attention. 1. I am deeply concerned about the over-reaching authority of the City to control the maintenance of our property, even so far as landscaping,painting,and other repairs or replacements..This property has been in my wife's family since her father built it in the early 1940's. We don't need the the City to now start telling us when and where something needs to be done. 2. The proposed fines and fees for non-compliance are outrageous. We are retired and on a fixed income,depending in part on the rental income from this property.The $10000 fine and up-to-$5000/day fees with liens are essentially a confiscation of property if the owner is unable to pay or correct the situation that"someone"in the City deems needed to be done. 3. We also question the inclusion of our property as a"Contributary"property except for the fact that it is over 50 years old. It does not have any unique architecture according to your guidelines,nor is it in one of your principal"H"zones. We would ask that our property be excluded from your list of properties. We strongly believe that further modifications[or exclusions]need to be made before this ordinance is adopted. Thank You //For Your Consideration, Wellman Branstrom 17012 Greentree Ln.

That said, I am deeply concerned about aspects of the proposed new ordinance and guidelines, especially its effect on owners who occupy a historic residence and especially in these economic times. Precinct walking in the Old Town area,I have met many residents who are owner- occupiers of old homes. Right now, they are frightened by the prospect of the city imposing huge fines, putting liens or deed restrictions on their homes,or forcing them to make renovations or repairs which they simply cannot afford. They are afraid the city might prosecute them criminally if they must defer maintenance for economic reasons. An example is a man in his eighties with limited means,who was born in the same house he Lives in today.He is afraid the city might put him in jail if he cannot afford to maintain his home the way the city wants. I am concerned that this ordinance might inadvertently create disincentives for owning/buying historic homes. It might make it harder to sell them due to the risk of unknown future financial liability. Also,if a developer could just buy transfer development credits, there might be an incentive to buy them and destroy historical buildings--which might cheaper than going through the more protective CEQA process. In my opinion,the formulation of any change in the status quo should have started with the people who actually live in and own these historic homes. Staff consulted with the Chamber of Commerce and the Downtown Association, but did not reach out to residents of historic homes prior to writing the initial draft. When the city change ordinances, guidelines or the General Plan, our tradition is to start with the present language,and deliberate line by line to determine if anything needs to be changed, as was not done in this case. I have attached a number of pages from the ordinance with my notes and proposed changes which would alleviate some of my concerns and which I will discuss in greater detail at our meeting. Here are a selected few: 1. The fines are way too high, especially for an owner-occupier. If the historic resource produces business or rental income, and the property owner is willfully destroying a historical resource,then such a fine might be justified as a deterrent. (PH 5-237) Sep 17 10 08:15a Jan Howell Marx 805-541-2716 p.2 2. This ordinance would drastically and inappropriately change the role of the Cultural Heritage Commission("CHC"). Council appoints citizen volunteers to the.CHC to give ADVICE to Council,the Planning Commission and the ARC,not to become enforcers of the ordinance or impose penalties on their neighbors(PH 5-236 & 239). A CHC volunteer should not be part of the ERC and should not be "on call" during an emergency or have physical access to hazardous buildings(PH 5-232-233). ERC decisions should be presented to the whole CHC for deliberation. (PH 5-235) 3. The"Time to correct"provisions are harsher than the present provisions of Chapter 1.24 of the Municipal code. (PH 5-236) Economic feasibility should be taken into account(PH5-238) 4. Violation of the ordinance should not be subject to criminal sanctions. (PH 5- 236) Administrative citation is sufficient. 5. There must be a time limit by which the city must lift deed restrictions from people's homes after correction or compliance (PH 5-237) 6. Historical resources should not be permitted to be relocated, except as allowed under CEQA and the Secretary of the Interior's standards. (PHS-239) 7. The Historical Fund should not be used as a means for the city to acquire real property, especially under a scenario where first the city places a lien, then just acquires the property. (PHS-240)It should be used to assist home owners who cannot afford costly renovations or repairs. 8. The Director's decision regarding the need for CHC review cannot overrule that of the Council, Planning Commission or ARC (PH5-223) 9. The ordinance should apply to publically owned resources, such as adobes. Perhaps consideration of the incredible amount of General Fund money it would take to restore the adobes will give pause to over zealous prosecution under this ordinance.

GASta81Codron%Counci1 Memo Histode.dot ATT The Status of Historic Preservation in the City of San Luis Obispo 1. 'Summm Beginning in the early 1980s,the City of San Luis Obispo inaugurated a program formalizing and adopting policies that addressed historic and prehistoric cultural resources. The first of the City's historic districts were formed, and the City Council created the Cultural Heritage Committee(CHC). The City subsequently adopted numerous policies in its General Plan that addressed the preservation and protection of historic and prehistoric resources. Today, after the lapse of nearly 20 years, it can be said that the City of San Luis Obispo has experienced measurable success with its historic preservation _ efforts.' Most notably, the City has purchased and partnered in preservation of the Butron, La Loma and Rodriguez Adobes, and has initiated a Mills Act Program. However,the City continues to Icee historic resources because . inconsistencies and loopholes in City ordinances fail to protect them Billy. Nor is the•City taldng full'advantage of its cultural resources,which are often viewed as mstm ding in the way of progress° rather than being considered valuable and significant factors that contribute to the City's character, GvabTrty, and economic vitality. Ultimately, it is the loss of historic,.cultural and archaeological resources that will result in a decline in the uniqueness of this community and make it less desirable as a place in which to reside,work or visit. While there are numerous considerations including economic development, housing, recreation,the environment,transportation, and the like, a development model cannot be based on what might be successful in other communities that lack the historic and unique character of this city. As we proceed into the twenty-first century,it Is prudent to look beyond the horizon to anticipate problems may roe ahead. Throughout Califomia, older established neighborhoods are feeling the pressure of growth and witnessing the creation of°monster houses.° Commercial areas are feeling the Impact of an expanding economy and booming development. °Underutilized°sites with i historic resources are often prime targets for redevelopment projects,with the resultlrig loss of arose resources. San Luis Obispo has already experienced some of these same pressures, and it is logical to predict that we will continue to face similar challenges In the now future. Actions can and should be taken to address these Issues todi}y, so that the City can avoid the heated conflict and controversy that is often generated when ambiguous or unresolved issues To help prepare for these challenges,we recommend that the City council take the following actions: 3-3 TTACHMENT 1. Revise the City's regulations and poiides to comply with current State , laws and regulati ns. 2 Institute training for staff and advisory bodies regarding the provisions of CEQA regarding Historic resources and the Secretary of the Interior's Standards. 3. Promote and ad rocate"Heritage Tourism"as a valuable asset in marketing the 4. Develop a recog ittion award program for contributions to protect Historic resources. 5. Provide addition I funding for consultant assistance to inventory the City's potentially Histol is resources. Ii. Backctround San Luis Obispo has a rich cultural heritage and an informed citizenry who have valued and protected ti red heritage. As with many areas of the country in the 1970s and 80s,the Ise ues of historic preservation in San Luis Obispo found a larger voice as several projects threatened the fabric of some of the historic areas and neighborh . Special interest was focused on the commercial downtown area and th "old town"Victorian neighborhoods. The historic preservation movem in the City focused on the creation of°historic distrkW and the first three we created: Downtown, Old'town and Mill Street. In the 1990s a portion of the town District was re-designated as the Chinatown Historic District and a onion of the Old Town District was combined with an additional area to cre a the Railroad Historic District. . The City also created lists of historic properties—the Master Ust of Historic Properties,.and the uting Property List. The Master List contains the most important examples o San Luis Obispo's amhaeological, cultural, and historic. resources, and also ntains structures associated with important personages, designers, or periods. our history. The Contnbutmg Property list contains properties that are Im ortart due to their contribution to the character of a historic district, neighborhood or the City as a whole, but In and of themselves are not individually significan . The City Council also created the CHC as an advisory body whose purpose was to identify and p the historic resources of the city.At that time the primary duty of the CHC was o inventory historic resources In the City and to recommend fomrab of new historic districts. This remains a major component of the CHC's work t ay. , 34 1 1� AT- ftHMENT •' . The City also underscored the importance of historic and pre-historic resources in its General Plan by including specific policies aimed at protecting these resources including provisions in the: Land Use, Housing, Open Space, Conservation and Parks&Recreation Elements. 111. Recommendations The City has established plans and policies regarding Historic preservation. The process for dealing with properties within Historic Districts or on the City's historic lists is dearly defined. The process for-nominating and including properties on the City's lists stresses cooperation from property owners, and,thus receives substantial support from property owners. However,there are also some weaknesses in the City's current procedures: A. vocal/Static Rules Ing gfrsetences—Recent court cases and changes in state law,primarily the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) have created a situation in which local and state law may not bec onsistent. CEQA now requires that any structure over 50 years old#0 may be affected by a project, be evaluated to determine if it is°historic°based on the criteria presented in the CEQA Guidelines. If it is,the effects of a project must be evaluated and the impacts mrtkgated, State law provides that local°lists"of historic properties can be used as a short list to determine if a structure is historic, but the absence of a stnucture.from such a fist does not mean it is not considered historic (it may mean it has never been evaluated). In addition, the definition used to place a structure on a local list may not reflect the current definition in CEQA. The City regularly relies on its fists to determine If a project may affect historic resources, but often stops at that step in its evaluation. The CHC is sometimes consulted to determine if an unlisted structure may have historic significance. However, in these cases,the Information presented is often minimal. Rather than the CHC reviewing information prepared for an Initial Study (e.g. historic resource analysts),the CHC is used in lieu of doing the primary historic research and analysis. • i .A second conflict may emst with the demolition regulations when a process is laid out that would seem to allow demolition of a Master list structure. Demolition of a Master Let Structure, assumed to be a"historic"resource by the State's guidelines,would by the'States rules seem to require preparation of an Environmental Impact Report(EIR) in most cases, This isnot reflected In the current demolition.regulations and may mislead some property owners as to a significant"ridden°step in the process. 3-7 ATTRMNT ..I A third confectre around the requirement in CEQA that the"...whole of , an action...° be con idered in the evaluation of a project Since demolition of non-listed properti is ministerial (thus exempt from CEQA),a-process has evolved where new fevelopment is occurring in a two step process. First the application for demc lition of affected structures is received (and eventually approved), and ther the application for the new development is submitted. This exempts the re Aew of the demolition of any potentially historic structures from review and pro wWn of the CEQA requirements. Two recent.examples of this process are t ie Pacific Home Do-it redevelopment, and the New Times development This raises a potential legal question as to whether the City is allowing a pn ject to be"split'thus violating the requirement In CEQA to review the whole 3f an action. Recommended Actio 1. Direct the unity Development Director and City Attorney to examine city regulations, 'cies and procedures in light of current state regulations. If ,amendments in regulations should be recommended t the appropriate bodies to rectify any conflicts.. 2. Consider preps n of a Historic Resources Element,or Historic Preservation O nce as a vehicle to clarrf)r process and polices. 3. Direct the Com unity Development Department to fuUy.evaluate potential historic resou as required by CEQA. B. Demoli to R u 'ons—The City's demolition regulations set procedures that must be folio by property owners wishing to demolish.any building over 50 years old. f a building Is over 50 years old,the CHC is notified of the request for a demo ition permit, and the property ownermust.advertise the stricture as to for possible relocation and photo-document the structure per the standards. If a property is on the Master or Contributing Property List, a pi must be submitted for review of the CHC and ARC with a required frnpng of ARC regarding the feasibility of rehabilitation of the structure, and coin atibility of the new structure within the neighborhood The regulations p a measure of certainty of the process for property owners and developers b provide little protection for strictures that may be historic, . but have not yet evaluated for nomination to either of the City's fists. RerAmmended 1. Direct the Com unity Development Director and City Attorney to examine City regui ' , policies, and procedures m light of current state regulations.Trdlicstruchires. ,amendments in regulations should be recommendThe bodies to.rectify any conflicts. 2. Direct the Cvelopment Director to prepare revisions to the j demolition rat provide more consistent protection to j potentially h 3-8 EMT C. lnventodes—Many of the older parts of town were inventoried in the 1980s, and structures that at that time met the criteria were added to the lists. Since then no comprehensive survey has been conducted,with the exception of the Mt. Pleasanton—Anholm neighborhood. Properties were added through recommendation of property owners, CHC members, or staff. However, related to the demolition regulation discussion above, the CHC has found belf repeatedly faced with demoiition requests of structures that have never been Inventoried or evaluated for historic listing. This has created a°reactive° erode rather than a"proactive mode. A station has been created In which the CHC Is constantly wondering where the next demolition request will arise and has had the effect of.diluting the time necessary to complete any comprehensive survey. Much of the time is spent evaluating the next "emergency.' If the demolition regulations as currently written are to provide some protection for historic resources,the Inventory(and review of previous Inventories), and subsequent nomination to the City lists become increasingly important.- Recommended mportant._Recommended Actions: 1. Provide additional funding for consultant help to inventory the City's -potentially historic resources. D. Educretian of Staff and Commissions—The recent changes in State law have, In effect,created a"newt'set of rules for dealing with historic resources. The State and many community are moogniang.-a broader definition of "historic"including streetscapes,signage,and landscaping.There Is increased focus on use of the Secretary of the Interior Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Structures (SOI Standards)to analyze changes to historic structures and to develop adequate mitigation measures. Staff and decision-making bodies are currently•basing decisions and findings on a limited understanding of the requirements and provisions of these laws. In addition, historic resource regulations have become and will continue to become increasingly complex,especially as State and local regulations collide. Recommended Aeffam: 1. Direct the Community Development Director to institute training for staff and decision-making bodies(i.e., Architectural Review Commission, Planning Commission) on the provisions of CEQA and the SOI Standards. E. Heritage Tourism/Educ aftn—The City has recently received the Great American Main Street Award from the National Trust for Historic Preservation. In addition, Sim it magazine's recent designation of San Luis Obispo-as 13W Downtowns (m the West)was awarded in part because of Its"historic fabric.'Yet,those.in charge of promoting the City seem, at best,to ignore this aspect of the City and, at worst,,seem willing to sacrifice it if development or ! parking Interests are at stake. The focus on heritage tourism should be ® j 3-9 TAG Increased Incorpo 'ng this even into development projects such as the ' Copeland's project ouId be encouraged. ' With the Copeland'i example, If the project proceeds as planned,the project will unearth (for all t see)the largest slice of the City's that has yet been seen. Significant hi 3toric and prehistoric artifacts will be encountered. With help from local gTd , the necessary archaeological Investigations could become a major for tourists as well as kxl residents and school groups. The entimmunrly should be educated as to howthe historic fabric of the comty plays an important role In the character of the city we all cherish. Recommended Actio is. 1. Request that th Downtown Association and Promotional Coordinating Commission mc ude heritage tourism and a focus on historic resources as potential points of the City. 2. Direct the Corru iunity Development Department to consider heritage tourism opportu iffles as potential mion measures for large projects that may affect cultural resources. F. RMSnition A —The City may want to consider recognizing projects and individuals wh have made the extra effort to contribute to the preservation of his oric resources. This would be a way of encouraging future , projects to make tt a extra effort in dealing sensitively with historic resources. Recommended Acd4 Pris. 'l. Direct staff to Y ork with the CHC and appropriate City departments to develop a row ptition award program for contributions to protect historic resources. V. Conclusion The National Trust fo Historic Preservation has recognized San Luis Obispo as a°Distinctive on',the only in California so rec ognize& The revival of the Cityrs economy and ' increasing populaiy as a tourist destination Is due, at least in part,to t s h' oris nature,character and appearance. The.resources that contain these are becoming increasingly valuable as time and progress take their toll. It is to keep In mind that these resources are non- renewable. When are gone,they're gone forever. The time has come preserve and protect the Cityrs significant historical resources of all : residential,commercial, and industrial. We should assure that time resources reflect the full spectrum of San Luis Obispo's cultural heritage—from the a'nate Victorian residences of prominent dtbws to the modest structures of the working classes. The Cultural Heritage Commixtee's recommendations wi i go a long way toward ensuring the continuing quality of life 340 r o _ that we have come to associate with visiting, living in and doing business in San Luis Obispo. We should err on the side of conservatism in the fate of historic structures so San Luis Obispo continues to be In the words of the National Trust, "...a striking alternative to Anyplace, USA" i I 3mll RECEIVE® SEP 2 0 2010 From: ANCARTER@aol.com [mailto:ANCARTER@aol.com] SLO CITY CLERK Sent: Sunday, September 19, 2010 9:20 PM To: Dietrick, Christine; Lichtig, Katie; Mandeville, John; Murry, Kim; Cano, Elaina Subject: Preservation Ordinance&Guidelines -- Recommended Changes BCC to Council, Here are some changes to the Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines which I plan to recommend on Tuesday night.

Although some of their recommendations appear to be reasonable, there are some key areas where I differ strongly. Some of the recommendations, if enacted as proposed, could result in seriously weakening the ordinance. I'm also-concerned that some members of the public have shown a disregard for the extensive process of public review conducted by the CHC and the staff to date. The comprehensive update of our historic resources program is a major objective of this City Council, and I recommend that my colleagues pay close attention to Attachment 1, which documents the record of of public participation conducted by the CHC, ARC and City staff over the past 18 months. I would raise the following specific concerns with respect to the memos issued by my colleagues, and ask that staff respond to this set of concerns as well, where appropriate: 1. Councilmember Marx states several concerns with the process in the body of her memo. Please clarify whether it is indeed a "tradition" for a process such as this to begin essentially with a "blank slate," inviting open-ended "page by page" comment from the residents or from any particular interest group on our existing ordinances and planning documents, prior to the onset of staff work. In my experience, this process may have occurred for some general plan elements, but not for others (e.g.,the Housing Element). Even then, some suitable amount of staff or consultant work must be conducted in order to prepare for any meaningful public participation. As I recall, the Council chose to update our Historic Resources Program in the 2009-11 Financial Plan -however we also specifically chose not to undertake a "historic resources element of the general plan," which would have been much more expensive. Am I mistaken about this recollection? Or, was the Council as a whole, including myself, mistaken in not conceiving of this effort as functionally equivalent to adding an element to our general plan? In either case, it's too late to go back and start all over again, nor would I suggest that any of us consider that option at this point. 2. Councilmember Marx has recommended in item#9 in her memo that this ordinance should apply to "publicly owned resources". She implies that the City has neglected our own responsibility to avoid "demolition by neglect" for our adobes - the La Loma Adobe and the Dana Adobes, in particular. Would the adoption of this ordinance help or hinder our ability to qualify for grants that could enable us to stabilize and rehabilitate these structures?As to the broad question of"publicly owned historical resources," doesn't this ordinance in fact apply to the City's own actions and agencies (e.g., Public Works and Parks/Recreation)? Are we not required under its terms to observe the requirements of the ordinance with respect to CHC review? Finally, does the City have the power to impose this ordinance on the County, school districts,the State of California, or other public agencies with historic resources lying within our jurisdiction?How about Union Pacific RR, PG&E, or other State-regulated utility companies? 2. Councilmember Marx has recommended that violations of this ordinance should not be subject to criminal sanctions, and that admnistrative citation is sufficient. Without criminal sanction- i.e., if we are limited to administrative citation alone- what is the maximum fine or penalty that can be assessed by the City? If the ordinance does not contain the possibility of significant fines based upon a misdemeanor filing, what remedies would be available to the City in the case of a property owner who demolishes a historic resource? Finally, if the ordinance is passed as it has been recommended to us, and a misdemeanor complaint is filed to remedy a serious violation of the ordinance,please outline the steps that are required under Section 1.24 of the Municipal Code (as referenced in 2.68.073(D), including the role of the City Council (if any). 3. Councilmember Marx has suggested that the ordinance "drastically and inappropriately" changes the role of the CHC, and I agree that there are some ambiguities. Please provide specific changes to the wording, if any, that would clarify the advisory role of the CHC; there may be some room for improvement in this regard. As one example, in the definition of"Neglect" (2.68.100#38), I suggest that we revise that to reads "...deterioration, as determined by the Director or the City Council, after appropriate review by the CHC" (or similar wording). A similar modification could be made to 2.68.073(D), pertaining to "Demolition by neglect." 4. Councilmember Marx has objected to the CHC having representation in the proposed ERC. That body would also, however, include a "citizen architect or engineer" appointed by the Council - albeit, with certain qualifications. Personally, I believe that this committee could just as easily include a member of our Board of Construction Permit Appeals as well as a member of the CHC. On the other hand, I am open to the possibility of removing the CHC representative. Since a majority vote is required for action by the ERC, it should have an odd number of members; as proposed, it would be six. Either we should remove the CHC rep, or add a Council-appointed member of our Board of Appeals. 5. Councilmember Marx suggests that the Historical Fund should not be utilized to acquire real property; however, it would seem that such a restriction would preclude the City from achieving one possible way of resolving serious cases of property owner neglect- one that may be satisfactory to all concerned, especially those who are concerned about property rights. We may, for example, need to acquire real property in order to obtain full legal rights to stabilize and rehabilitate the La Loma Adobe. Please comment. 6. With respect to item#8 on Councilmember Marx's memo, is there any circumstance where the Community Development Director's decision with respect to historical resources could overrule a determination of the Council, Planning Commission, or ARC? If so, I do not see it in this version of the ordinance. I believe that it would be advisable to require some public notice, if it is not otherwise required, of a decision by the Community Development Director under this section (14.01.045). Given such notice, it might also be appropriate to provide an opportunity for a member of the public to appeal such a determination to the CHC, and ultimately to the Council. Please comment. 7. Finally, Councilmember Carter has recommended a series of changes to the ordinance that would enable a property owner to claim that it is economically infeasible to protect or restore historic resources. Please explain how the "economic hardship" provision in the ordinance already addresses these concerns. Please comment, as well, about the experience of this city, or other communities, where overly-broad consideration of a claim of"economic infeasibility" has led to the loss or impairment of significant historic resources. I am quite certain that this Council will be able to work through all of the provisions of this ordinance in an atmosphere of reason, with candor, and with full appreciation for the many hours of hard work by volunteers and experts in this community. I await your response to the questions and comments provided herein, and those of my colleagues. Thanks. John B.

We recognize the community value in preserving historic and cultural resources. However, not every property owner may place the same degree and respect for properties representing our community's past. One among the many intentions behind the proposed ordinance, is to have effective enforcement ability when the rare and extreme violations occur and the owner-violator chooses to Ignore City notices,or believes a minor penalty is but a small cost of doing business allowing for violation continuance. I can only imagine the apparent political pressure legislative body members experience when a vocal minority expresses pronounced opposition to proposed legislation, particularly In times preceding elections,and during difficult economic times. However, my late-in-life municipal and county code enforcement career(following years of business work experience and business ownership)taught me the Importance of having substantial violation penalties necessary to correct extreme ordinance disregard. In addition to stronger enforcement capabilities,the proposed ordinance provides the community with additional benefits that you are already familiar with. It is with regret that I have an out-of-town commitment during this week,which includes Tuesday,September 21st,and will not be able to attend the Council hearing. I am attaching a copy of"Viewpoint"that I wrote asking The Tribune to print,which they did today,Sunday,September 19d'. I am asking for your support and approval of the proposed Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines for the benefit of the community as a whole. https://mail.slocity.org/Exchange/slocitycouncil/Inbox/from%2OBuzz%20Kalkowski%20-... 9/20/2010 Page 2 of 2 Sincerely, Buzz Kalkowski Buzz Kalkowski 2163 Augusta Court San Luis Obispo,CA 93401 Cell phone(my only contact means during the week): 805704-4121 https://mail.slocity.org/Exchange/slocitycouncil/Inbox/from%20B uzz%20Kalkowski%20-... 9/20/2010 Letter to the Tribune (for Viewpoint?) I am a Cultural Heritage Committee(CHC)Member volunteer (since September 2009), a San Luis Obispo (SLO)homeowner, and a previous zoning enforcement officer with a Northern California city and with Napa County. I attended the August 26`s Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines workshop hosted by the Community Development Department to listen to community concerns. San Luis Obispo was the 5`s established mission of the twenty-one Alta-California Spanish missions, in 1772, thus one of the very first European settlements in California, and was the 12`s city to be incorporated in California(February 1856 -481 incorporated California cities exist today). The city-placed signs at the entries to San Luis Obispo read: "HISTORIC SAN LUIS OBISPO". The signs are intended to encourage Highway 101 travelers to visit, to see and to experience our heritage; and to spend money in our city. The Mission and many of the historic structures and neighborhoods reflect a well-preserved heritage. SLO was never a city of great mansions. It did and does reflect modest working class homes providing character and history. It is easier and less expensive to maintain character than it is to create community character. Physical history erased is visual history departed. An example of concern that many share: the very first motel in the world, the 1925 Motel Inn, sitting at the east entry to the city was allowed through the years, to wither away to what little remains today. Within the city, examples of historic structures experiencing willful deterioration can be identified. Do we, the citizens, condone the few owners who continue the willful neglect of historic properties to the point of demolition for safety's sake? Do we value our history and unique sense of place created by our historic structures? We, the citizens, need to weigh the facts and then decide to support or discourage the passage of the HPOG at the upcoming City Council meeting on September 21". The main community concern expressed at the workshop related to proposed enforcement penalties, which potentially could be significant. Additional city revenue is not the intent of the penalties. The prime purpose is to preserve officially listed historic resources within the city when a listed building is allowed to significantly deteriorate, possibly willfully, to the point where it becomes a health safety issue and must be torn down. Typically when a violation is brought to the attention of the city, the city provides a written notice to the property, citing the violation along with the specific ordinance section(s) violated, and gives 30 days or so for the owner to work with the appropriate department so that eventual corrections will be made. If an owner is verifiably financially stressed, the proposed ordinance has an economic hardship provision. When an ordinance has minimal penalties, ignoring the ordinance, or paying a minuscule penalty can be an insignificant cost of doing business. An example that I can offer is a property a northern California city where I did Code Enforcement. The property had a small truss manufacturing operation, considerable junk, and people living in junk cars and trucks (with electrical extension cords even running through water puddles). The owner had ignored code violations going back 37 years when the city was able to get a judge to conduct the trial on site. The judge, like previous judges, found the owner in violation, but this judge placed a substantial penalty fine,plus costs. It was at that point that the owner sold the property for nearly $10 million and the property was cleared of violations and junk, and high end apartments were built on the site. The point is that having the ability to assess a significant fine can be a deterrent to those who would allow historic structures to be demolished by neglect. At the workshop one person expressed concerns about the notice given to property owners. Notices of the Historic Preservation Ordinance hearings were all published in the Tribune (It behooves all to read the SLO public notices printed each Saturday within the classified section). In addition, nearly 700 post card notices were mailed to the owners of all historically listed properties for each hearing, and email updates were provided to anyone who expressed interest. Informational flyers were also sent to all owners of historic properties. Truly an effort was made to invite people to participate. At the workshop questions were raised as to what standards are historic properties held. .Virtually all governmental agencies use the Secretary of Interior's Standards for Historic Rehabilitation. • For anyone interested in reading the standards, the website providing the standards is: http://www.nps.gov/histoEy/hps/tos/tax/rhb/stand.htm . • For preservation, restoration and reconstruction purposes use the following websites: http://www.nps.gov/history/local-law/arch stnds 82.htm; http://www.parks.ca.eov/pages/1054/files/standards%20chartl.pdf. Lastly, I want to convey that significant effort and time(more than one year)went into drafting the proposed Historic Preservation Ordinance and Guidelines. Our Community Development staff performed considerable research and thoughtful word-crafting in drafting the proposed ordinance. The State Historic preservation Office (SHPO); the SLO Architectural Review Committee; and numerous entities and individuals, including the Chamber of Commerce and the Downtown Association, reviewed the proposed ordinance and guidelines and offered comments and suggestions. The CHC conducted numerous meetings to review the draft ordinance and input provided. Changes were made. The best attempts were made to provide our city the best and most fair preservation ordinance possible. Your support of the ordinance before the City Council will be most appreciated.

While I have made sure that any renovations to my house are consistent with the period (c. 1914) , I'm worried that your proposal is too open-ended. It appears to give the power to city employees, and even the CHC, to order improvements to properties that in my view might not be matters of required maintenance or historical authenticity. Issues of landscaping, foundation cracks, or worn roofing, should remain matters of owner discretion unless the building is imperiled. It is true that there are a few old houses, notably student rentals, that are not in the best repair. I think it is important that these structures be preserved. So I see the point of such an ordinance. But I also believe that my finances and my schedule of when I can do major projects should not be in the hands of the City. If these guidelines are to be made stronger, I believe that repairs that are ordered by the City should only be to prevent threats to the structure as determined by a City-paid licensed home inspector. On a related note, I was hiking up to the Reservoir Cyn Green Space yesterday, past the adobe on Lizzie St in SLO. I was shocked at the state of disrepair of this historical adobe.The one on Dana St. also appears to be quite neglected. These are city-owned structures, are they not? I strongly believe that the City's recent interest in historical preservation should include restoration of these City-owned adobes before it is too late. If there is a move afoot to take better care of them, let me know and I'd be glad to participate in some way. Thanks.

I live in the Historic District, but not in a "historic" house. The reason for my request is that the public has not been properly notified of the development of the ordinance, the fines are excessive to the point of ludicrous, the enforcement is very subjective and the whole thing is overkill. An article in today's Tribune by one of the authors disputes these points, but I was on the receiving end, he was on the sending end. I was made aware of this ordinance when I questioned Kim Murry about a card I received in the mail three weeks ago. She said to disregard it, it would be replaced with a correct. card. The magazine The Week carries an article reporting that the city of North Port, Florida, is fining a resident $27, 000 for leaving her improperly licensed car in her driveway for four months. The basis for the law is to protect the city's appearance. That's what Buzz Kalkowski cites as the reason for the ordinance. Kalkowski, in his piece, talks about the results of businesses letting their properties go into disrepair. I believe most buildings in. the Historical District are either residences or being made earthquake resistant, which requires close city inspection. In my frequent walks in the down town area I have noticed and taken pride in the huge number of buildings and residences that have been refurbished, painted or remodeled, making the place almost sparkle compared to how it looked 23 years ago. I've seen many homeowners install and replace foundations to the point that most area craftsmen of this skill have left the business. It seems to me that the laws and rules in place have brought about marvelous change and improvement, and that more is not required. Since purchasing my now 100 year old, tear-down house in 1987, remodeling and repairs have required investment of nearly twice the original purchase price. This has been financially draining enough, without some stranger looking over my shoulder and voting on my choices and increasing the costs. I suspect this is true of many of my neighbors. And, like many of them, my plan is to live in the place until I die.

It is discriminatory to a specific design type of building and its owner(s), it will be enforced with huge punitive amounts of money with predictable outcomes of loss of their property, investment and the constitutional right of property enjoyment and surely will engender bitter and prolonged litigation. The citizens that will be affected by this one sided barrage of regulation and enforcement have had no opportunity for the formulation process and the promulgation forces have shown no compelling reason for its existence especially in the face of existing codes etc... that are in place to accomplish the same espoused result less the massive fine structure and the policing powers given to City employees . The discrimination issue is an interesting one in that this effort is targeting specific building types and is not a City wide ordinance for the betterment of the whole community. In fact,the betterment issue is of itself a wonder of a question. We, the proposed affected, are free peoples living in a democratic society and understand reasonable process. This proposed ordinance process has missed that point. Please defeat this ordinance in its entirety. Thank you.

I have spoken to more than a few people in San Luis Obispo that are bothered by the proposed wording and I wanted to forward a note stating this. The proposed wording states "...failure to obey an order issued by those authorized to enforce it, or failure to comply with a condition of approval of any discretionary city approval...shall constitute a misdemeanor." (p.17) There are no objective standards. Everything is to be negotiated with community development department staff--including what needs to be done, the time allowed for doing it, and the amount of the fines (up to$10,000 per violation and up to$5,000/day). I feel this city's beauty and its preservation is a high priority. However, we need to make sure we make policy that allows for some balanced solutions instead of this very tough language.

The accompanying Guidelines also contain provisions which list potential programs the City could use to assist with historic resource conservation efforts including such things as tax credits, grants and earmarked funding from the State. Some local citizens have asserted that properties that fall under the jurisdiction of this new ordinance will be hard to sell and their values will therefore depreciate. Common sense dictates that this ordinance will enhance, not depreciate, the values of those properties that fall within its jurisdiction. Others express dismay that there will be an unfair"higher standard"enforced for the maintenance of historically listed properties.The only higher standard that will apply here will be to help prevent unpermitted demolition, "demolition by neglect'or"post-disaster demolition"of historically listed properties. Finally, there has been a suggestion that substandard properties already fall under the jurisdiction of the International Property Maintenance Code and the SLO Zoning Code. However, these codes'penalties are clearly insufficient to provide a disincentive to demolition through action or inaction. In this ordinance, alteration of more than 25% of an historically listed property, or relocation of same, will trigger the definition of"demolition". This new proviso in the ordinance will give those who are intent on protecting our Downtown's historical character and "sense of place" more"teeth"when the local economy recovers. Based on all of the above arguments, supporters of Save Our Downtown urge you to give serious attention to the importance of this effort and approve the proposed Update to the Historic Preservation Program Guidelines and approve the proposed Historic Preservation Ordinance.

In the interest of providing information that may be important to the public consideration of the draft Historic Preservation Ordinance in a timely manner, staff is providing the following additional information and will be ready to answer questions tomorrow evening. A summary of comments, questions, and requests for information posed to staff is included below, followed by staff's additional input for discussion at the Council meeting. In light of the amount and content of comment on the draft ordinance, staff anticipates that after considering public comments and Council member input tomorrow evening, the most effective approach will be to provide direction to staff to return with changes to the proposed documents at a future date. 1. Fines are way too high. Deterrent should be reserved for historic resources that produce business or rental income (PH5-237). The Cultural Heritage Committee (CHC) reviewed fines from other jurisdictions and after considering several options, determined that larger fines were desired in order to provide a greater deterrent to unapproved demolitions (either active or by neglect). There is no magic to the amount chosen other than it reflects the upper limit seen in other jurisdictions and the CHC's determination that current limits to administrative fines at $500 is not enough of a deterrent to be effective. Council may determine that a lower amount is appropriate. While most instances of demolitionby neglect have been experienced in commercial situations, the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not distinguish between historic resources that produce income versus those that do not. Demolition of a historic resource poses a significant adverse impact in most instances and it is the unapproved demolition or conditions leading to demolition by neglect that the fines are meant to deter. 2. The ordinance changes therole of the CHC and should not authorize the CHC to become enforcers or to impose penalties. A CHC member does not belong on the —1 - PHS Red file Response Emergency Response Committee (ERC). ERC decisions should be presented to the full CHC for deliberation. The comment raises two related, but distinct issues, one pertaining to the roles of staff, advisory bodies and the Council in the implementation of the ordinance and one pertaining to the role of the ERC in an emergency situation affecting a historic property. With respect to the first issue, the duties of the CHC as defined in the ordinance do not represent a change in the role of the CHC for development review processes or provide more authority than that of a recommending body. However, staff agrees that Section 2.68.072 (Legal authority and enforcement) should be modified to eliminate the CHC and Council as parties charged with enforcement. The CHC and Council are the review and approval bodies for development applications subject to the ordinance, and the Council may serve as the appeals body for certain code enforcement activities, but neither the CHC nor Council would be charged with direct code enforcement duties as the language might suggest. Thus, staff recommends the reference to the CHC and Council be deleted from that section. With regard to the ERC provisions, staff recommends language clarification in the ERC section to reflect that the ERC advises the Chief Building Official. The ERC includes a member of the CHC to provide advice on historic resources after a disaster for buildings that may be in need of immediate action in order to address a stability issue. These types ofsituations cannot wait to be . addressed through the normal review process. Just as the CHC member is not the expert on structural issues, the Chief Building Official (CBO) or Fire Marshall is not an expert on historic issues. The ERC team is intended to bring together various experts to provide a balanced recommendation to the Chief Building Official. The CBO still has the ultimate authority to make a determination. 3. The "time to correct" provisions are harsher than the present provision of Chapter 1.24 of the Municipal Code. Economic feasibility should be taken into account.. Chapter 1.24 of the Municipal Code does not specify the time to correct a violation, but instead speaks to the idea of voluntary compliance as the preferred approach prior to assessment of fines. Chapter 1.24 does specify that citations must be paid within 30 days. Staff recommends adding language to the ordinance to refer to Chapter 1.24 of the Municipal Code. The proposed ordinance provision explicitly states that additional time to correct may be allowed by the Chief Building Official in recognition that not all violations may be feasible to correct within 30 days. The CHC discussed the idea of economic feasibility and recommended structural feasibility as the criteria since economic feasibility is already covered under the Economic Hardship provision. In addition, environmental review of a proposed demolition would cover the feasibility of any proposal including economic feasibility. 4. Violation of the ordinance should not be subject to criminal sanctions (misdemeanor). Administrative citation is sufficient. Staff recommends removal of section 14.01.073 on PH5-236. Government code section 36900(a) and City Charter Section 609 provide that a violation of a City ordinance is a -2- misdemeanor, unless.by ordinance it is made an infraction, and there is no need to restate that authority. The City Attorney's office has the discretion to "downcharge" misdemeanor violations to infractions where appropriate and to work with property owners who have demonstrated a willingness to work toward resolution. Where such cooperation cannot be achieved, the criminal misdemeanor complaint represents an important tool of last resort to achieve code compliance. 5. There must be a time limit by which the City lifts deed restrictions from properties after correction or compliance. Agreed. Section.14.01.073D(b) on page PH5-237 specifies that the deed restriction would enforce the building permit restriction for up to five years following a violation unless the owner obtained a building permit to correct the situation. The intent of this section is to provide additional disincentive to unapproved demolition of a historic resource (either active or by neglect). Staff recommends language be added to reflect that the City would record a formal release after final inspection of any required permits or at the end of five years if no permits have been obtained. 6. Historic resources should not be permitted to be relocated except as allowed under CEQA and Secretary of the Interior Standards. Staff agrees with this comment. Relocation is not a preferred alternative, but may be the only alternative to demolition in certain instances (and could potentially serve as mitigation in some circumstances). Section 3.7 of the proposed Guidelines contains language addressing relocation of historic resources, which would need to be done consistent with the Secretary of the Interior's standards. 7. The Historic Fund should not be used for acquisition of real property. The CHC included this provision to provide policy direction to enable use of the fund to acquire. historic properties being offered voluntarily. This section may be deleted without effect if the Council feels it implies something other than intended. Option #5 under "Uses of Fund"allows Council to identify any other purposes that are in the best interests of the City. In addition, the City has.property acquisition and disposal policies that would require Council action to identify such an action as an appropriate use of City or grant funds. 8. The Director's decision regarding CHC review cannot overrule that of the Council, Planning Commission or ARC. The provision under section 14.01.045 is meant to reflect the current practice that allows the Director not to send minor projects to CHC for review if they can be determined to be consistent with historic preservation guidelines and the.Secretary of the Interior Standards. Staff suggests a minor wording addition: "Notwithstanding Section 14.01.040 A-E and G" to address the concern raised. 9. The ordinance should apply to publicly-owned resources such as adobes. Page PHS- 227-228 should be amended to reference publicly-owned adobes. PH5235 edits. 3 The City prioritizes General Funds and seeks grants to address these unique resources in the Community. The City makes its best efforts to maintain the properties in compliance with historic preservation standards, but also must prioritize use of public funds. Just as a private property owner has the ability to ask for relief due to economic hardship, the Council goes through a very public and inclusive priority setting process for the two year budget that assigns funds to community priorities. The City has assigned General Funds to repair and stabilize the adobes over the years. Where possible, grant funds are used for adobe projects. For instance, the City will be using CDBG funds this fall to repair and stabilize the La Loma adobe. Page PH5-227 and 228 refers to resources other than structures — such as gardens and site features. This is not an appropriate place to reference the adobes. The adobes are already referenced in the Master List of Historic Resources. PH5-235—architectural features. Staff supports deletion of"unwilling or". . 10. Please provide a comparison of the penalties and provisions of the Municipal Code, International Property Maintenance Code and the Proposed Historic Preservation Ordinance. Property maintenance provisions exist in both the International Property Maintenance Code and the Zoning Code, however, neither are speck to historic properties nor have a focus on their vulnerability to demolition by neglect. Staff recommends a reorganization of the enforcement and property maintenance section to reflect this intent. A comparison of the current versions of the three codes follows: -4- C ..

Q = •� � .., U '> U � � E (ILA) = 11. Why is the proposed range in daily fines so wide? The fines have a large range because the types of violations and the impacts of those violations on historic resources vary widely. There is no magic to the amount of the fines. The CHC desired a strong deterrent for situations that would lead to demolition by neglect. Council could direct staff to come back with administrative guidelines to provide more direction for how the fines would be imposed. For example, a smaller fine might be appropriate for failure to obtain a permit for unpermitted minor work where the work which adversely altered a historic resource can be reversed. The largest fine would be imposed for unpermitted demolition of a historic resource or where demolition by neglect resulted in the building being declared unsafe and a public nuisance. The Council may also determine that an increasing fine is appropriate for second and third occurrences of violations within a certain time period. 12. Please provide some discussion of the fines based on assessed value vs. that proposed in ordinance. The CHC considered different options for fines. The advisory body reviewed examples from other jurisdictions when considering the amount of fines to include in the ordinance. One of the earlier drafts of the ordinance included fines based upon assessed property value, however, after considering input from the public, the CHC agreed with an, observation that basing a fine on assessed value would result in differing penalties depending on how long the property owner had owned the property. The concern expressed was that a violation penalty on a property owned for 10 years would be far less than the same violation on a property that had been owned for two years due to Proposition 13 effects on property valuation. The CHC discussed various options and determined that a specified amount would be the most appropriate option and the action included opting for a similar amount to those reflected in several other jurisdictions with substantial penalties. -8- PHS Red file Response 13. What financial incentives are available for Master List and Contributing Properties? Existing Incentives Master List Properties Contributing Properties Local Mills Act Property tax relief X Federal Tax Credits X Historic Plaque X X Proposed Incentives Master List Properties Contributing Properties Local Mills Act Property tax relief X Federal Tax Credits X Historic Plaque X X Reconstruction after loss X X Modified development X X Standards Additional Uses — B&B, X X Historic use, compatible use Historic & fagade X X easements TDC — transfer development potential X X elsewhere in City where appropriate. Fee waiver or reduction X X Historic Fund assistance X X 14. "Out of Pocket" costs for listed properties going through City process for review? Building and Planning fees are the same for historic and non-historic projects. There are no additional submittal fees required for projects that go through ARC or ARC-MI review — CHC review is part of the process and does not come with an additional charge. CHC action is a recommendation so most decisions are not appealable until subsequent action is taken by Director or ARC. If an appeal is filed, it is subject to the same appeal fees as any other project appeal and this fee is set by City Council. "Out—of—pocket costs"may be related to two situations: If a historic report is required, the applicant is responsible for that cost. Historic reports will be required for proposed modifications to historic buildings where the Community Development Department does not have enough information on file to make a recommendation regarding the -9- l project's consistency with the Secretary of the Interior's standards. In many cases, the historic file specific to the property does have the requisite information and no further reports are required. If a project involves alteration to a historic building where more than 25% of the structure is to be modified, the proposed guidelines define this as a "demolition". If the project cannot be found to be consistent with the Secretary of the Interior Standards, the CHC could find that a substantial adverse affect would be created by the project and an EIR to address that specific impact would be required prior to action being taken. The cost of preparing the focused EIR would be the responsibility of the applicant. 15. Why was 30 days chosen for compliance timeframe? Current enforcement procedures direct the owner to correct a violation within 15 calendar days. The CHC felt that 30 days to correct a violation was an appropriate amount of time. However, public input prompted language to be added to allow the Chief Building Official to grant more time if appropriate (i.e. some structural issues may require engaging an engineer or architect to develop plans which would take more than 30 days). 16. Should the development of the Historic Ordinance have been initiated as a "blank slate" prior to the on-set of staff work? Was the Council mistaken in not conceiving of this effort as similar to adding an element to the General Plan? Council identified creation of the Historic Preservation Ordinance as an "Other Important Objective" through the 2009-2011 Financial Plan. This effort is not similar to adding an element to the General Plan but is instead a General Plan program implementation. The CHC's Whitepaper recommendation from 2000 is incorporated into a General Plan program - Conservation and Open Space Element program 3.6.10 — which specifies that the City shall adopt a Historic Preservation Ordinance. The City has had Historic Preservation Program Guidelines in place for 25 years and provisions in these Guidelines have become the foundation of the proposed Ordinance. Rather than start from a blank slate, the CHC used the.Guidelines as a starting place, reviewed literature and the state of historic preservation practices; discussed and reviewed programs at the State Office of Historic Preservation and National Register of Historic Places; reviewed the application requirements associated with becoming a Certified Local Government (CLQ); reviewed ordinance examples from other CLG jurisdictions; and listened to and incorporated public input and General Plan guidance. While input from a member of the public has indicated that Land Use Element (LUE) 2.15 specifies that this effort should have started with the neighborhoods, the program referenced relates to General Plan direction to develop "Neighborhood Wellness Plans" and does not apply to development of a City-wide ordinance related to historic preservation efforts. 17. What are maximum fines allowed if proposed ordinance penalties are not adopted? What steps are required under Section 1.24 of the Municipal Code? Maximum fines would be $500 per violation. See responses above for Municipal Code process. - 10- 18. ERC should include a member of the Board of Construction Permit Appeals or the CHC member should be eliminated in order to have an odd number of members for decision-making purposes. This body is meant to advise the Chief Building Official and currently the draft ordinance specifies that a majority of a quorum of the ERC is required for all decisions. Staff recommends that additional language be added to clarify this process as advisory to the CBO and that a majority recommendation is not required. The intent of the ERC is to provide additional information for the CBO to consider as post-disaster demolition actions arise. 19.There are some ambiguities in the language that could use clarification. For example, Definition of Neglect and Demolition by Neglect could use some additional language. Staff will take Council direction and make modifications to sections where needed. 20. Is there any circumstance where the Director could overrule a determination of the Council, Planning Commission or ARC? If so, language may need to be added to advertise this decision and to provide for appeal. The Director's authority is not being recommended for expansion. Staff recommends language be added to clarify that the Director's authority does not include such actions as overruling Council. Director determinations are already appealable to Council and there is no need to restate this provision. 21. Consideration of recommended changes to ordinance to include economic infeasibility.

The people with the torn-up front yard that stayed so torn up for so long that the pizza delivery guy would say"oh, yeah,the house with the giant pile of dirt in front"when taking our order. • We scrimped and paid for the conversion from fuse box to breakers • We lifted the wood-to-dirt house and poured a foundation • We replaced all of the single pane windows • We finally painted the poor old dear • When the wind blew we collected pieces of roof from our yard and.the neighbor's yard for years. • Most of the house is now insulated • I'd say it took 12-15 years before we really started to do our city proud. • And honestly,there was nothing we could have done differently. We were so fortunate to get a low-interest loan from the city to do the foundation , otherwise the bank would never have given us the home loan inthe first place. Anyway, all this is to say that now I'm pretty worried about at least of a couple of my Buchon St. neighbors who are doing the best they can and frankly some homes are in pretty bad shape. They've lived here for literally two generations. You'd penalize them? Demand improvements they can't afford? This ordinance appears pretty arbitrary and highly punitive and in the end I gotta' ask "really?There is such an inventory of derelict homes in downtown SLO that we need government involvement to rectify the situation?" Sorry that we couldn't be at the meeting tonight. We're out of town. I think we should dial this ordinance language way back and do the bare minimum needed to qualify for the grants we the city are pursuing.

Put yourselves in their shoes. The city has determined that your home is in some sense historical. This determination, which may at first seem like an honor, often results in a substantial taking of property without compensation through building and land restrictions. Now you are being told that you are financially responsible to forever maintain an old structure that long ago probably should have been replaced. You are held responsible for decades of wear that you had no control over. The structure can not be insured and has little value beyond the land it sits on. To make matters worse, you are told that you must do all of this not because your home is really unique or historically important as is called for in preservation guidelines ,but because its age and look increases tourism. Is it really in the city's long term interest to to ignore the Fifth and Twelfth Amendment rights of any of it's citizens. Larry Hoyt RECEIVED SEP 21 2010.

I am unable to attend tonight's meeting but I am keenly interested the issues at hand. During the first half of my nearly forty years residence in San Luis Obispo, I witnessed the loss of many important cultural resources through legal demolition processes. Since the creation of the.Cultural Heritage Commission,the loss is largely through benign or deliberate neglect In the.more flagrant instances we have lost significant structures such as the Bottle Works,only to have them replaced by pale imitations of the original structures. I once was able to take groups of children and adults to the bottle works facade on Nipomo Street and speak of all that went on there in this once hot and dry town of the Far West. Today, my audiences don't react in the same way because reality has been supplanted by replica.The original building could have been saved with City intervention in the 1970's and 80's. By the time of the floods of 1995, it was too late. The goal of preservation is to save the best of the historic and contributing structures.This requires an ordinance with some teeth in it,and if necessary In egregious instances,criminal penalties. It also should apply to the city-owned properties,especially the Quintana Adobe on Dana Street, the Garcia Adobe in the Edna/Islay Development and the Bowden/La Loma Adobe off Lizzie Street. Our heritage is the value added portion of our city. Please vote your obligations as stewards of these precious gifts for future generations.

While there have been times when I felt there was too much micro management In the preservation process,there is no doubt in my mind that our community would have lost much that we feel is vital and wonderful if there had been no preservation effort. Serving on the Conceptual Physical Plan for the Downtown committee with Ken Schwartz, Pierre Rademaker,Chuck Crotser and Rod Levin—a plan which has hung in the City Council chambers for nearly 20 years-convinced me that the commercial vitality of our downtown could not be what it is without major efforts to preserve and build on our authentic historic past While we must permit adaptation and response to modem requirements,allowing significant destruction or degradation of buildings and community character that announce where we have been and who we are in our commercial and residential neighborhoods would be placing San Luis Obispo into a"lowest common denominator"mentality of"anywhere USA". With this approach we could lose what over two centuries of authentic California history on the Central Coast has created: our unique and desirable community. I urge the City Council to judiciously review and update the preservation ordinances but not to abandon a process that has served us well visually,culturally,and economically.
