4/25/2005 <br />identified in light fixture catalogs and is presently available. Staff will coordinate the <br />needed adjustment and will monitor the installation of these light fixtures. <br />Finding: The mitigation measure is feasible and would reduce the impacts of the <br />Project to less- than - significant levels because the measure would conform to the <br />Standards relating to the treatment of such historic resources. <br />C) Handrail <br />Potential Impact: The Plans, page A3.7, note 12, references a new metal <br />handrail for the portico steps to meet criteria set forth in the Americans with Disabilities <br />Act ( "ADA"). The handrail is based on historic photographs but deviates where the rail <br />meets the column, which is incompatible with the Standards. The Plans show the <br />incorporation of a handrail whose design deviates from the original design and which <br />does not conform to the Standards. <br />Mitigation: The following mitigation measure, as set forth in the FEIR, is hereby <br />adopted and will be implemented as provided in the mitigation monitoring and reporting <br />effort: <br />Review ADA compliance in the State Historical Building Code chapter 8.6 <br />"Alternative Accessibility Provisions" and modify the Plans accordingly in <br />order to conform to the Standards. <br />Monitoring: Prior to City Council consideration of the Project, the Plans were <br />modified to conform to the Standards. Staff will coordinate the needed modifications and <br />will monitor the installation of the handrail. <br />Finding: The mitigation measure is feasible and would reduce the impacts of the <br />Project to less- than - significant levels because the measure would conform to the <br />Standards relating to the treatment of such historic resources. <br />D) Guardrail <br />Potential Impact: The Plans, page A3.7, note 16, references new guardrails (at <br />portico) to meet ADA criteria. The guardrails' ornamental design duplicates the interior <br />guardrail design. This is considered a conjectural feature which is incompatible with the <br />Standards because 1) the design is too close to the design of an historic feature that <br />was not original to the portico, and 2) an interior feature is being duplicated for an <br />exterior feature. <br />Mitigation: The following mitigation measure, as set forth in the FEIR, is hereby <br />adopted and will be implemented as provided in the mitigation monitoring and reporting <br />effort: <br />Atty /Reso /Reso.1530 14639 <br />042005 3 Muff # 301 <br />
