El Camino Real is a substantial,physical divide between the two sides of the street. It provides a <br /> buffer between the buildings on either side of the boulevard. Nonetheless, although the project is <br /> not adjacent to the Record Man building under the DTPP, this report evaluates the impacts, if <br /> any, of the project on The Record Man. <br /> Assessment of Potential Adverse Change <br /> According to the Downtown Precise Plan(section 2.1.4. D.): <br /> Each proposed development adjacent to a historic resource that requires a <br /> discretionary approval shall be reviewed by a qualified architect or architectural <br /> historian approved by the City and meeting the Secretary of the Interior's <br /> Professional Qualifications Standards (36 CFR part 6) and by the City's Historic <br /> Resources Advisory Committee for its potential impacts on the adjacent historic <br /> resource, and any site and architectural design modifications identified through <br /> this review process as necessary to avoid a"substantial adverse change" in the <br /> significance of the adjacent historic resource and protect its continued eligibility <br /> for listing on the California Register, as determined by the City, shall be required <br /> as conditions of project approval. <br /> A substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource means physical <br /> demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the resource or its immediate surroundings <br /> such that the significance of an historical resource would be materially impaired.4 <br /> The significance of an historical resource is materially impaired when a project demolishes or <br /> materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of an historical resource that <br /> convey its historical significance and that justify its inclusion in, or eligibility for, inclusion in <br /> the California Register of Historical Resources.5 Eligibility for listing on the California Register <br /> of Historical Resources has a three-part test: a resource must meet one of four criteria for historic <br /> significance; must generally be more than 50 years old; and must retain its historic integrity. <br /> The California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) evaluates a resource's historic <br /> significance based on the following four criteria: <br /> Criterion 1 (Event): Resources associated with events that have made a significant <br /> contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history, or the cultural <br /> heritage of California or the United States. <br /> 13 <br />
