Addendum Historical Resource Inventory and Evaluation Report & Historical Impacts Analysis AECOM 10 requirements for protection of historic cultural resources. The criteria for listing properties in the CRHR are outlined in Section 15064.5(a)(2)-(4) of the CEQA Guidelines, which provide the criteria from Section 5024.1 of the California PRC. The CRHR is in the California Code of Regulations Title 14, Chapter 11.5. The CRHR criteria closely parallel those of the NRHP. As defined by Section 15064.5(a)(3)(A-D) of the CEQA Guidelines, a resource shall be considered historically significant if the resource meets the following criteria: Criterion 1: It is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of Californias history and cultural heritage; Criterion 2: It is associated with the lives of persons important in our past; Criterion 3: It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region or method of construction, or represents the work of an important creative individual, or possesses high artistic values; or Criterion 4: It has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. Under CEQA Guidelines, Section 15064.5 (a), a “historical resource” includes: • A resource listed in or eligible for the California Register of Historical Resources. • A resource listed in a local register of historical resources, as defined in section 5020.1(k) of the Public Resources Code or identified as significant in an historical resource survey meeting the requirements of section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code. • Any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record, or manuscript that a lead agency determines historically significant, provided the determination is supported by substantial evidence in light of the whole record. • A resource so determined by a lead agency as defined in Public Resources Code sections 50203.1(j) or 5024.1. • Historical resources listed in, or determined eligible for, the NRHP are automatically listed in the CRHR, Section 5024 (d)(1)(2) of the Public Resources Code. The CRHR also states that eligible resources must “retain enough of their historic character or appearance to be recognizable as historical resources and to convey the reasons for their significance,” and it lists the same seven aspects of integrity used for evaluating properties under the NRHP criteria (location, design, setting, workmanship, materials, feeling, and association). 5.1.2 Redwood City Historic Designation Criteria The City Historic Preservation Ordinance (Chapter 40 of the City Municipal Code) is structured to identify historical resources at the early stages of projects, and to resolve conflicts that arise between land uses and the preservation of historical resources. The Historic Preservation Ordinance requires that applications or projects affecting historic resources comply with applicable local, state, and federal laws. Under the Historic Preservation Ordinance, the City also maintains a list of individual historic landmarks, resources, and districts. The list is continually updated as new sites and landmarks are identified. A property may be listed as a historic landmark or historic site if it meets one or more of the following criteria:
