ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY & CLIMATE IMPACTS
Landmark designation provides opportunities for the adaptive re-use and rehabilitation of historic resources within the City. The rehabilitation of these resources, rather than their removal, achieves construction and demolition waste diversion, and promotes investment in existing urban centers.
POSSIBLE FUTURE ACTION
The Council may choose to appeal the decision, in which case it would conduct a public hearing at a future date.
FISCAL IMPACTS OF POSSIBLE FUTURE ACTION
There are no known fiscal impacts associated with this action.

1919 Addison Street – Bonita Apartments
Structural Alteration Permit #LMSAP2022-0012 to provide accessibility upgrades and a renovated lobby and landscaped entry for a non-historic building located on a City Landmark site.
CEQA FINDINGS
1. The project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA, Public Resources Code §21000, et seq. and California Code of Regulations, §15000, et seq.) pursuant to Section 15331 of the CEQA Guidelines (“Historic Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation”). Furthermore, none of the exceptions in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply, as follows: (a) the site is not located in an environmentally sensitive area, (b) there are no cumulative impacts, (c) there are no significant effects, (d) the project is not located near a scenic highway, and (e) the project site is not located on a hazardous waste site pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5.
SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR’S STANDARDS FINDINGS
Regarding the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation, the Landmarks Preservation Commission of the City of Berkeley makes the following findings:
1. The proposed project does not require a change of use. The City Landmarked property will retain the historic uses as an apartment building and the 1978 office building will also retain its current use.
2. This historic character of the Bonita Apartments building will be retained and preserved with this project, which would not alter the historic building. The project avoids removal of distinctive materials and any alteration of features that characterize the property. The project scope is limited to work on the entry lobby and façade of the non-historic building on this City Landmark property and will not result in changes to its form or any changes to the historic Bonita Apartments.
3. The project reflects the contemporary design of the detached, non-historic building at the Bonita Apartments. These proposed new features are also contemporary and will not result in a false sense of historical development.
4. The subject property does not feature changes that have acquired significance in their own right.
1919 ADDISON STREET STRUCTURAL ALTERATION PERMIT - Findings and Conditions
5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques, or examples of craftsmanship that characterize the Mission Revival style of the Bonita Apartments will be preserved as the scope will not touch the historic structure.
6. As conditioned herein, if deteriorated historic features will be affected by this request, then they would be repaired or replaced to match the materials, design, and finishes of the original items.
7. The applicant does not propose chemical or physical treatments. However, standard conditions of Structural Alteration Permit approval would require any chemical or physical treatments to be undertaken using the gentlest means possible.
8. The project does not have the potential to affect any archaeological resources because the applicant proposes no excavation.
9. The proposed new work is designed with complimentary, high-quality materials in simplified, contemporary style employing colors and finishes that harmonize with the design elements of the existing non-historic building. Owing to these aspects, new work will be sufficiently differentiated from the historic design.
10.If the proposed improvements were removed in the future, they would not permanently impair the integrity or essential form of the Bonita Apartments building.
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL
1. As required by Section 3.24.260 of the Landmarks Preservation Ordinance, the Commission finds that proposed work is appropriate for and consistent with the purposes of the Ordinance, and will preserve and enhance the characteristics and features specified in the designation for this property. Specifically:
a. The proposed area of scope is contained to the non-historic building located on the City Landmark parcel, but not a part of the Landmarked structure. No changes are proposed on the Landmarked building.
b. The proposed project would provide safety and accessibility upgrades to the entry lobby of the non-historic Addison Street building. There are no aspects of this proposal that would be detrimental to the character of the Landmarked apartment building.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
THE PROPERTY CONTAINS TWO 3-STORY COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS CONNECTED BY A THROUGH- BLOCK WALKWAY FROM ADDISON STREET TO UNIVERSITY AVENUE. THE NORTHERN BUILDING IS 1940 UNIVERSITY (NOT A PART OF WORK). THE PROPOSED PROJECT IS LOCATED ON THE GROUND FLOOR OF THE SOUTHERN BUILDING, 1919 ADDISON STREET, KNOWN AS UNIVERSITY WALK. THE PROPERTY'S USE IS OFFICE SPACE FOR WHICH THERE ARE MULTIPLE OFFICE UNITS.
DUE TO SAFETY AND SECURITY CONCERNS OF THE OFFICE TENANTS, THE OWNER WISHES TO CREATE A SECURE LOBBY ENTRY OFF OF ADDISON STREET TO CONTROL ACCESS TO THE PROPERTY. THE LOBBY WILL BE ACCESSED BY ENTRY DOORS AT THE SIDEWALK. THE LOBBY WORK WILL INCLUDE ACCESSIBLE IMPROVEMENTS
TO THE PATH OF TRAVEL FROM THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY AND CORRECT A NON-COMPLIANT ENTRY THRESHOLD AT THE FRONT GROUND FLOOR TENANT SPACE (#101). THE APPROACH TO THE BUILDING WILL BE
RE-GRADED AND A NEW ACCESSIBLE RAMP INSTALLED TO CONNECT THE BUILDING'S COMMON WALKWAY TO THE SIDEWALK.
IN ADDITION, A NEW RETAINING WALL WITH A WROUGHT IRON RAILING WILL BE ADDED ALONG THE ADDISON STREET FRONTAGE FOR ADDITIONAL SECURITY OF THE LANDSCAPING AREA AND EXIT STAIR DISCHARGE. THE WORK WILL REPLACE AN EXISTING RETAINING WALL WITH WROUGHT IRON FENCE AND A METAL SECURITY GATE.
NO CHANGES ARE PROPOSED TO THE BUILDING'S EXITING. NO CHANGES ARE PROPOSED TO THE INTERIOR WALLS OR ENVELOPE/FOOTPRINT OF THE OFFICE SPACES.

INFORMATION CALENDAR
May 9, 2023
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Dee Williams-Ridley, City Manager
Submitted by: Jordan Klein, Director, Planning and Development Department Subject: LPO NOD: 0 Center Street – Civic Center Park, #LMSAP2023-0001
INTRODUCTION
The attached Landmarks Preservation Commission Notice of Decision (NOD) is presented to the Mayor and City Council pursuant to Berkeley Municipal Code/Landmarks Preservation Ordinance (BMC/LPO) Section 3.24.240.A, which requires that “a copy of the Notice of Decision shall be filed with the City Clerk and the City Clerk shall present said copy to the City Council at its next regular meeting.”
CURRENT SITUATION AND ITS EFFECTS
The Landmark Preservation Commission (LPC/Commission) has approved a Structural Alteration Permit (SAP) for the subject City Landmark property. This action is subject to a 15-day appeal period, which began on April 25, 2023.
BACKGROUND
BMC/LPO Section 3.24.300 allows City Council to review any action of the Landmarks Preservation Commission in granting or denying a Structural Alteration Permit. For Council to review the decision on its merits, Council must appeal the Notice of Decision.
To do so, a Council member must move this Information Item to Action and then move to set the matter for hearing on its own. Such action must be taken within 15 days of the mailing of the Notice of Decision, or by May 9, 2023. Such certification to Council shall stay all proceedings in the same manner as the filing of an appeal.
If the Council chooses to appeal the action of the Commission, then a public hearing will be set. The Council must then rule on the designation within 30 days of closing the hearing, otherwise the decision of the Commission is automatically deemed affirmed.
Unless the Council wishes to review the determination of the Commission and make its own decision, the attached NOD is deemed received and filed.
LPO NOD: Civic Center Park, #LMSAP2023-0001 INFORMATION CALENDAR May 9, 2023
ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY & CLIMATE IMPACTS
Landmark designation provides opportunities for the adaptive re-use and rehabilitation of historic resources within the City. The rehabilitation of these resources, rather than their removal, achieves construction and demolition waste diversion, and promotes investment in existing urban centers.
POSSIBLE FUTURE ACTION
The Council may choose to appeal the decision, in which case it would conduct a public hearing at a future date.
FISCAL IMPACTS OF POSSIBLE FUTURE ACTION
There are no known fiscal impacts associated with this action.

Structural Alteration Permit #LMSAP2023-001 to install a Turtle Island Monument at the Civic Center Park Fountain, located on a City Landmark property within the Civic Center Historic District.
FINDINGS REQUIRED UNDER CEQA
1. The project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA, Public Resources Code §21000, et seq. and California Code of Regulations, §15000, et seq.) pursuant to Section 15301, CE Class 1 of the CEQA Guidelines (“Existing Facilities”) and Section 15302, CE Class 2 (“Replacement or Reconstruction”). Furthermore, none of the exceptions in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply, as follows: (a) the site is not located in an environmentally sensitive area; (b) there are no cumulative impacts; (c) there are no significant effects; (d) the project is not located near a scenic highway; (e) the project site is not located on a hazardous waste site pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5; and (f) the project will not cause substantial adverse change in the significance of Civic Center Park, a resource included in the City of Berkeley’s register of historical resources and located in within a National Register Historic District.
FINDINGS RELATED TO THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR’S STANDARDS Regarding the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards (SOI) for Rehabilitation, the Landmarks Preservation Commission of the City of Berkeley makes the following findings:
1. The proposed project does not require a change of use to the property, which is and will remain a municipal park.
2. The proposed removal of historical materials from the Streamline Moderne fountain and the installation of new elements to create the Turtle Island Monument are expected to alter the fountain in a manner that will not preserve its distinctive character and original design. These actions are not consistent with SOI Standards 2 and 5, which require retention of character, materials features, finishes and production techniques. However, the proposed alterations are limited to only one of the Civic Center Park’s character- defining features and will not affect any others, thereby avoiding wholesale alteration of the Park.
3. The proposed Turtle Island Monument will not resemble or replicate designs from the Park’s historic period. These new features are contemporary and will not result in a false sense of historical development.
0 CENTER STREET STRUCTURAL ALTERATION PERMIT - Findings and Conditions
4. The subject property does not feature changes that have acquired significance in their own right.
5. As described previous under analysis of SOI Standard 2, above, the features of Civic Center Park will be substantially retained and preserved with this limited-scope project that effects the fountain only.
6. As conditioned herein, if deteriorated historic features will be affected by this request, then they would be repaired or replaced to match the materials, design, and finishes of the original items.
7. Standard conditions of Structural Alteration Permit approval would require any chemical or physical treatments to be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. However, the applicant has not proposed chemical or physical treatments. However,
8. As conditioned herein, actions to preserve and protect unexpected discoveries during project construction are required. Nevertheless, the project does not have the potential to affect any archaeological resources because the applicant proposes no excavation.
9. The proposed new work is designed with new and differentiated elements and forms, and introduces new materials that are not currently or historically present in this area of the Park. Owing to these aspects, new work will be sufficiently differentiated from the historic design.
10.If the proposed improvements were removed in the future, they would not permanently impair the integrity or essential form of the Civic Center Park.
FINDINGS REQUIRED UNDER LANDMARKS PRESERVATION ORDINANCE
1. As required by Section 3.24.260 of the Landmarks Preservation Ordinance, the Commission finds that the proposed work is appropriate for and consistent with the purposes of the Ordinance, and will preserve the characteristics and features specified in the designation for this property. Specifically:
A. The proposal to substantially alter the design of the Streamline Moderne Fountain in Civic Center Park will not adversely affect the architectural design of the City Landmark Park because the site would retain all of its other character-defining features, including: setting, topography and spatial organization with four primary segments (tree and fountain terraces, circular lawn and western esplanade), mature trees, system of pathways, and original furnishings. With these features intact, the Park will retain its use, identify and form as well as its historical integrity.
B. The special character of the subject property may lie in its civic identity, Works Progress Administration-era associations and reflections of the City Beautiful Movement. The project will result in alteration of the Streamline Moderne Fountain at this site, but it will not adversely affect the Park’s special character overall due to its limited scope and retention of the remaining features of the site.

6. Halt Work/Unanticipated Discovery of Tribal Cultural Resources In the event that cultural resources of Native American origin are identified during construction, all work within 50 feet of the discovery shall be redirected. The project applicant and project construction contractor shall notify the City Planning Department within 24 hours. The City will again contact any tribes who have requested consultation under AB 52, as well as contact a qualified archaeologist, to evaluate the resources and situation and provide recommendations. If it is determined that the resource is a tribal cultural resource and thus significant under CEQA, a mitigation plan shall be prepared and implemented in accordance with State guidelines and in consultation with Native American groups. If the resource cannot be avoided, additional measures to avoid or reduce impacts to the resource and to address tribal concerns may be required.
7. Archaeological Resources (Ongoing throughout demolition, grading, and/or construction) Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(f), “provisions for historical or unique archaeological resources accidentally discovered during construction” should be instituted.
Therefore:
A. In the event that any prehistoric or historic subsurface cultural resources are discovered during ground disturbing activities, all work within 50 feet of the resources shall be halted and the project applicant and/or lead agency shall consult with a qualified archaeologist, historian or paleontologist to assess the significance of the find.
B. If any find is determined to be significant, representatives of the project proponent and/or lead agency and the qualified professional would meet to determine the appropriate avoidance measures or other appropriate measure, with the ultimate determination to be made by the City of Berkeley. All significant cultural materials recovered shall be subject to scientific analysis, professional museum curation, and/or a report prepared by the qualified professional according to current professional standards.
C. In considering any suggested measure proposed by the qualified professional, the project applicant shall determine whether avoidance is necessary or feasible in light of factors such as the uniqueness of the find, project design, costs, and other considerations.
0 CENTER STREET STRUCTURAL ALTERATION PERMIT - Findings and Conditions
D. If avoidance is unnecessary or infeasible, other appropriate measures (e.g., data recovery) shall be instituted. Work may proceed on other parts of the project site while mitigation measures for cultural resources is carried out.
E. If significant materials are recovered, the qualified professional shall prepare a report on the findings for submittal to the Northwest Information Center.
8. Human Remains (Ongoing throughout demolition, grading, and/or construction) In the event that human skeletal remains are uncovered at the project site during ground- disturbing activities, all work shall immediately halt and the Alameda County Coroner shall be contacted to evaluate the remains, and following the procedures and protocols pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 (e)(1) . If the County Coroner determines that the remains are Native American, the City shall contact the California Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5(c), and all excavation and site preparation activities shall cease within a 50-foot radius of the find until appropriate arrangements are made. If the agencies determine that avoidance is not feasible, then an alternative plan shall be prepared with specific steps and timeframe required to resume construction activities. Monitoring, data recovery, determination of significance and avoidance measures (if applicable) shall be completed expeditiously.
9. Paleontological Resources (Ongoing throughout demolition, grading, and/or construction) In the event of an unanticipated discovery of a paleontological resource during construction, excavations within 50 feet of the find shall be temporarily halted or diverted until the discovery is examined by a qualified paleontologist (per Society of Vertebrate Paleontology standards [SVP 1995,1996]). The qualified paleontologist shall document the discovery as needed, evaluate the potential resource, and assess the significance of the find. The paleontologist shall notify the appropriate agencies to determine procedures that would be followed before construction is allowed to resume at the location of the find. If the City determines that avoidance is not feasible, the paleontologist shall prepare an excavation plan for mitigating the effect of the project on the qualities that make the resource important, and such plan shall be implemented. The plan shall be submitted to the City for review and approval.

Irrigation Basis of Design
The irrigation system will be supplied using water that has run through the fountain and stored in a below-ground tank. The system will be pressurized with a booster pump that will be installed together with the fountain pump, and use the same power supply. The pump will be either pressure operated, or operate via the irrigation controller. Plants will be irrigated with a high efficiency, low flow, point source drip system constructed with equipment and method preferred by city maintenance staff and in use at other sites throughout the city. All irrigation equipment will be commercial grade, selected for durability and minimal maintenance burden.
Written Statement of Landscape Plan Concept
from 1992 Turtle Island Monument flyer, written by Lee Sprague:
"In my people's creation stories the world was covered with water and all the animals were swimming. They were getting tired, so they respectfully asked the muskrat to go under the water to see if there was any earth. So the muskrat went down to find the earth. All of the animals were waiting for the muskrat to reappear. They were worried for the muskrat. Finally his body floated to the surface. The animals looked in his paw and they found some earth.
They put the earth on the turtle's back. The rest of the animals now knew that there was earth under the water so they each went down to get some earth, first the loon then the duck and all of the rest of the animals. They all put the Earth on the turtle's back. This is how Turtle Island was created."
●
The Turtle Island Monument honors the history, creation, and celebration of Indigneous Peoples Day, respectfully, within the City of Berkeley Landmark #201,the Martin Luther King, Jr. Civic Center Park. See Applicant's Statement for more information.
