For any proposed building project that involves demolition, remodeling, alteration, or a potential physical effect to a structure that is 50 years old or more, Stanford shall submit to the County Planning Office a historical significance assessment of the structure regarding its eligibility for listing on a Federal, State or a Local list (Historic Resources Inventory). [Cultural Resources: GUP Condition 0.1 & 0.2] If the County Planning Office determines that the structure is listed or potentially eligible for listing: о For Demolition: Additional environmental review required (site specific analysis of the impact and any feasible mitigation measures), and demolition referred to the Santa Clara County Historic Heritage Commission for its recommendation prior to County consideration of approval of a demolition permit. For Alteration/Remodeling: Remodeling shall be conducted following the Secretary of the Interior's Standards 4#5Regulatory Framework History 2000 GUP: Based on EIR mitigations - Stanford to provide historical significance assessment for 50 year or older buildings, including San Juan District 2001: Zoning Change from A1, A1-sr, A1-20s, A1-20s-sr, R1E-10, R1E-10-sr and R1 to R1S, R1S, R3S and R3S-sr. Zoning change did not change the requirements of the GUP EIR mitigation measures or GUP conditions applicable to cultural resources. 2001-2014: Countywide demolition permits required a full historical assessment of buildings 50 years or older at discretion of DPD. 2014: Review of Countywide procedures changed. Only required historical assessment/Landmark Alteration Permit application for properties on the HRI or Landmark list. 2018: 2018 Stanford GUP EIR was not certified; hence 2000 GUP conditions are still in effect. 2020: Responding to questions from CSG members, Department evaluated processes and determined that 2000 GUP conditions still apply to the San Juan District. Today: Any proposed projects on buildings 50 years or older will need a historic assessment to determine if it should be added to HRI list. 5#62000 Stanford General Use Permit Condition O. Cultural Resources 1. For any building project that involves demolition of a structure that is 50 years old or more, Stanford shall submit an assessment of the structure regarding its eligibility for listing to the County Planning Office. If the County Planning Office determines that the structure is listed or potentially eligible for listing on a federal, state, or local list of historic resources, or is a potential historic resource, then a site specific analysis of the impact and any feasible mitigation measures shall be prepared as part of the environmental review of the project and the demolition will be referred to the Santa Clara County Historic Heritage Commission for its recommendation prior to County consideration of approval of a demolition permit. 2. For any proposed building project that involves remodeling, alteration, or a potential physical effect on a structure that is 50 years old or more, Stanford shall meet the following requirements: a. If the structure is included in the Santa Clara County Heritage Resource Inventory, or is determined by the County Planning Office to be eligible for listing or is a potential historic resource, the remodeling shall be conducted following the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring and Reconstructing Historic Buildings, or the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings (1995). b. If the structure is not on the County Inventory, but is 50 or more years old, Stanford shall assess the structure to evaluate whether it appears eligible for inclusion in the Inventory and will submit its assessment to the County Planning Office. If the County Planning Office determines that the structure is potentially eligible for the Inventory, or is a potential historic resource, the County Planning Office will submit the assessment to the Santa Clara County Historic Heritage Commission for review. If the structure is determined to be eligible for listing on the County Inventory, then the mitigation described in Condition O.2.a shall be required. 6#7How the Historic Survey and Development Standards Study Can Help Streamline Process Identify new historically significant buildings and conduct up to 15 new Historical Assessments at the County's expense. • Potentially identify homes beyond the first 15 for future assessments. Inform County and Residents which homes would need assessments before permits are issued. Identify non-historically significant homes that will not require assessment in the future. Buildings not yet 50 years old, will potentially have the assessment done after they cross the 50-year threshold. 7#8Key Questions on Regulations & Matrix The scope of the 2000 GUP was clarified by the County in the 2018 EIR to state that it specifically did NOT apply to the faculty homes. It appears from information recently conveyed with the Matrix that the County has revised this policy, which has been relied upon for the past 20 years. Please clarify. If a homeowner in an older home wishes to make additions, it could be the case that the homeowner would be burdened with the costs of preparing an Historical Significance Study and its attendant costs in terms of money and time, and not Stanford. Please comment. With respect to the various types of permits listed in the Matrix, who are the issuing bodies and what are the usual associated costs? With respect to a proposed district - can the definition of "depends" be clarified further in the notes? Are there basic "specific improvements that may or may not require additional design review"? 8#9Questions (30 Minutes) To ensure everyone gets adequate time to ask questions, we will call on members alphabetically to ask their questions. Each person can ask 1 to 2 questions to ensure everyone get adequate time to ask their questions. Each person will get approximately 3 minutes of discussion time. 9#10Tentative Schedule of Study Timeline: Month 1 (Jan) Month 2 (Feb) Month 3 (March) Month 4 Month 5 (April) (May) 2020 Month 6 Month 7 Month 8 (June) (July) (Aug) Task Task 4: Historic Survey (a) Evaluation Criteria Memo (b) Background Research and Survey Methods Memo (c) Historic Resources Survey (d) Survey Findings and Recommendations (e) DPR Forms Evaluation of Existing Neighborhood Design Present Survey methodolgy and existing neighborhood design evaluation to CSG Present Survey Results to CSG Task 5: Task 6: Task 7: Task 8: Public Outreach & Second Public Meeting Task 9: Preparation of New Development Standards Task 10: Present New Standards to CSG Task 11: Finalized New Development Standards Task 12: Draft Zoning Ordinance Task 15: Present New Standards to CSG Task 14: Additional Public Outreach & Public Meeting Task 16: Present New Standards to Historic Heritage Commission Task 17: PC/BOS approval Task Activity D D 2021 Month 9 Month 10 Month 11 Month 12 Month 13 Month 14 Month 15 (Sept) (Oct) (Nov) (Dec) (Jan) (Feb) (March) Month 16 Month 17 (April) (May) Month 17 Month 7 Month 8 (June) (July) (Aug) D සප D D D D S Presentation Meeting - Planning Commission/Board H Contingency D Deliverable Historic Heritage Commission Meeting C SO P Stakeholder Group Meeting CSG Review Public Meeting G M CB D So D SG HC B B#11Thank You Bharat Singh, Principal Planner (408) 299-5749 [email protected] Charu Ahluwalia, Associate Planner (408) 299-5740 [email protected] THE * COUNTY 1850 SANTA OF CLARA 11
