7.A. - Page 2 ANALYSIS Staff is initiating a modification to the Mezesville Historic District to remove 1016 Warren Street as a Contributor to the district, as the historic structure no longer exists. The property would still be within the historic district, but would be considered non- contributing. The property will continue to be subject to the requirements of the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance due to its location within a historic district On June 11, 2015, the HRAC held a duly-noticed public hearing and voted 5-0 to recommend that the Mezesville Historic District be amended to remove 1016 Warren Street as a Contributor to the district. On August 4, 2015, the Planning Commission held a duly-noticed public hearing and voted 6-0 (Bondonno absent) to recommend that the Mezesville Historic District be amended to remove 1016 Warren Street as a Contributor to the district. ALTERNATIVES Council may choose to deny the modification of the Mezesville Historic District, leaving the new home being constructed at 1016 Warren Street listed as a Contributor to the historic district. FISCAL IMPACT Review of the Architectural Permit for the new house as well as this amendment to the Mezesville Historic District were both performed pursuant to the City's Cost Recovery System, therefore, direct costs during the processing of this amendment are covered by an applicant deposit. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act Section 2106515061 (b) (3), the action of removing the "Contributor" status of 1016 Warren Street is not a project under CEQA because removal of a designation or protections status from a non-existent resource would not have any direct or indirect physical change in the cause a significant effect on the environment, nor would it have a detrimental effect on the character or integrity of the Mezesville Historic District.
