INTRODUCTION
A. Study Summary

PURPOSE
The Historic Structure Report (HSR) for the City of Camarillo offers a comprehensive record of the history and development of the Scholle House. It assesses the current physical condition of the property, identifies its character-defining features, and outlines appropriate treatment strategies for preserving, maintaining, and rehabilitating the house in a way that honors its historical significance.

Additionally, the HSR includes a scope of recommended improvements aligned with the rehabilitation guidelines set by the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties .

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
The Scholle Farmhouse is located in Camarillo, California, where W Ponderosa Drive terminates at Springville Drive, north of US-101. As part of Ran Rancho Courtyard Homes Development of the Springville Specific Plan Amendment, the Scholle Farmhouse was found to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) and California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) under Criterion A/1 (Events) and Criterion C/3 (Design), as well as for listing as a City of Camarillo historic landmark.

With an understanding of the history and condition of the Scholle House as well as guidance provided by The Secretary of Interior Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties , Page & Turnbull has considered the four potential treatment options: preservation, rehabilitation, restoration and reconstruction. The rehabilitation treatment was selected as the recommended treatment option for the Scholle House. This approach provides for repair and protection of the character-defining features of the building, while simultaneously allowing for necessary functional upgrades to continue its use as a single-family residence.

The Scholle House will be rehabilitated to continue its use as a single-family residence. The project will involve exterior repairs and restoration, including refinishing the wood siding, restoring windows and doors, and refurbishing the roof eave with its decorative brackets. The front porch will be reopened by removing the existing storefront, and the entire hipped roof will have new asphalt shingles. The house will sit on a new concrete foundation, approximately matching the original in height. Key alterations will include removing the vestibule on the south gable façade and converting the east porch to an open design. The interior layout will be the same with some minor alterations:
the living room will be expanded, and the bedrooms reconfigured to add an ensuite bathroom to the primary bedroom. The existing bathroom will be enlarged, and the kitchen will be modernized and opened to the dining room. Interior walls will be stripped to the wood studs, and the existing lath and plaster will be replaced with new gypsum board plaster throughout. Additionally, new Historic Structure Report Scholle Farm House
[24162] FINAL Camarillo, CA

PAGE & TURNBULL 2 November 14, 2024

plumbing, lighting fixtures, and mechanical and electrical system upgrades will be installed to bring the home up to modern standards.

This table provides a conclusive summary that identifies the building system’s condition, significance and its treatment recommendations. The rehabilitation plan, created by Page & Turnbull on October 30, 2024, provides further information on the treatments for the Scholle House.

PRIOR HISTORICAL EVALUATIONS
The Scholle Farm House was evaluated by Pamela Daly, M.S.H.P., of Daly & Associates in a “Historic Resource Assessment Report for Scholle Farm” in November 2019. This report was used as the historic resources technical report in support Cultural Resources chapter of the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Springville Specific Plan Amendment, prepared by Cadence Environmental for the City of Camarillo in October 2020. 1 The Scholle Farm House was found to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) and California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) under Criterion A/1 (Events) and Criterion C/3 (Design), as well as for listing as a City of Camarillo historic landmark.

The property was documented on several previous occasions, but these reports either did not include evaluations based on relevant National Register, California Register, or City of Camarillo historic landmark criteria, and/or were not prepared by an architectural historian meeting the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualification Standards.

METHODOLOGY
Page & Turnbull prepared this HSR by gathering information about the history of the Scholle Farm House, including historic photographs and previous documentation. Previous technical reports, documents, and drawings, supplied by the client, were reviewed by Page & Turnbull. Limited archival research was conducted to supplement prior documentation, including gathering historic photographs and articles on file at the Pleasant Valley Historical Society. The information reviewed and collected during the research phase supported the summary of significance and identification of character-defining features in the HSR Part 1.

The Scholle Farm House was visually surveyed during a site visit conducted on July 9, 2024 by Page & Turnbull staff members Jim McLane, Namrata Dadawala, and Amanda Commins. The survey primarily consisted of visual observations of the building’s exterior and interior. Documentation in the form of field notes, hand sketches, and photographs were taken throughout the interior and exterior of the buildings.

The structural system was evaluated by Holmes during a site visit in July 2024 (Justin Sharkley). The information gathered during the survey phase informed the treatment recommendations in Part 2.

PART 1.1: DEVELOPMENT HISTORY
A. Historical Background & Site History

SCHOLLE FARM EARLY HISTORY
In 1850, California became the 31 st state to join the United States and by 1866, the town of San Buenaventura (Ventura) was incorporated; becoming the ﬁrst ofﬁcially recognized town in what would become Ventura County. As summarized in the Historic Resource Assessment Report for Scholle Farm (2019) prepared by Pamela Daly of Daly & Associates:

In the 1860s and 70s, the lower half of California was hit by disastrous ﬂoods and they were immediately followed by droughts that caused the death of thousands of beef cows raised on the rancho lands. The overextended ranchers were forced to settle the loans they had entered into by selling their lands to the lenders. Many thousands of acres of the historic lands of Ranchos Santa Clara del Norte, Las Posas, Rio de Santa Clara, and Calleguas located between the community of San Buenaventura and Port Hueneme, in what was then Santa Barbara County, were sold to the settlers coming to California. The United States Government began to sell their excess lands in Ventura County in the 1870s as well. 2

The first owner of the land that eventually encompassed the Scholle Farm was Charles Marion Simmons, a farmer from Kentucky who settled in Ventura County before 1869. Prior to his move to California, Simmons lived in Illinois and Oregon with his first wife, Nancy Smith, and their four children. Simmons remarried in 1869 to Mary Ann Starke and was listed as a farmer in San Buenaventura Township in the 1870 census.
3 In 1874, under the “Cash Sale” conditions of the
Homestead Land Act, Charles Simmons was awarded a patent for 153.48 acres of land in Ventura (formerly the San Buenaventura District of Santa Barbara County).4 On October 12, 1875, both Simmons and his wife Mary, died and bequeathed the land to their eldest son Rollin. The land was likely leased to a neighborhood farmer until 1891 when the lot was sold to Moritz Reiman. In 1895, Edward Henry Scholle, an extended member of the Scholle-Borchard family and related to Reiman through marriage, purchased the property and established the farmstead known as “Scholle Farm.”

SCHOLLE FAMILY & SCHOLLE FARMHOUSE
The Scholle and Borchard families immigrated to California from Germany in the late 1860s and were some of the first non-Hispanic European settlers in Pleasant Valley in the settlement of Springville. The area that now encompasses Camarillo in Ventura County was known as Pleasant Valley for its rich agricultural land. Christian Borchard was the first family member to move to this region and is credited as being the first to plant crops of wheat and barley with 30 acres under cultivation within a year.

Based upon Christian Borchard’s success as a farmer,
the availability of old rancho land and government
land for sale in San Buenaventura Township, and
years of war and political instability in Germany,
many members of the Borchard-Scholle family began
to immigrate to the United States, and Ventura
County, in the early 1870s. Christian was joined by
his brother Caspar Anton Borchard (1813-1892), two
nephews Edward and Caspar Borchard (brothers of
Franziska Borchard Wucherpfennig Scholle), his
grandnephew Caspar Wucherpfennig, his niece
Franziska Borchard Wucherpfennig Scholle, her
husband [Anton Joseph Scholle] and four children, all
by 1876.
5 By the end of the 19
th century, Edward Scholle, the
second child of Anton and Franziska Scholle,
purchased the patent lands from Moritz Reman for
what would become known as Scholle Farm. As
stated in the Historic Resource Assessment Report for
Scholle Farm (Daly, November 2019) , the main
farmhouse and some of the early structure that
comprised the property are believed to have been
moved to the Scholle Farm property from offsite—
potentially from other farms owned by the Borchard
or Scholle families—and the construction date of the
farm house has been estimated to be the 1870s

(Figure 2).6 The Scholle Farm House was eventually inherited by Edward Scholle’s son, Edward Henry Scholle Jr. in c. 1930., with family members living there for several generations, including his wife Alma, and their two daughters, Helen and Dorothy. Alma sold the property by the 1970s, following Edward Henry Scholle Jr.’s death in 1960.

6 The c.1870s year built is based on the Historic Resource Assessment Report for Scholle Farm (Daly, November 2019), however the report does not provide a clear source for that date. Other sources, including the Evaluations of Standing Structures Report (McKenna 2012) and articles by the Pleasant Valley Historical Society have estimated the date as c.1890s. Further archival research to verify the year of construction was beyond the scope of this HSR.

B. Construction Chronology
1874 In 1874, under the Cash Sale conditions of the Homestead Land Act, Charles Simmons is awarded a patent for 153.48 acres of land in the San Buenaventura District of Santa Barbara County.
ca. 1870s A 42’ x 47’ farmhouse (now known as “Scholle Farm House”) is constructed. The farmhouse is presumed to have been constructed offsite—potentially at one of other farms owned by the Borchard or Scholle families.7 1891 Christopher (Moritz) Reiman purchases the property. 1895 Edward H. Scholle acquires the land and establishes a farmstead (“Scholle Farm”). ca. 1904 The Scholle Farm House is moved to its location at Scholle Farm, and a new barn is constructed. Additional structures are moved to the farmstead including a small residence that may have been a former train depot, and a small barn. c.1930 Edward H. Scholle, Jr., acquires Scholle Farm from his father. ca. 1940s The front porch is enclosed with multi-light wood windows and wood panel door with three divided lites, surrounded by a four-lite wood transom and wood sidelights, each with two lites above a wood panel (Figure 5).8 1970s Scholle family sells the Scholle Farm property.
2022-2023 Scholle Farm House is removed from its foundation, front stairs demolished, and put on temporary jacks, and temporarily relocated on the site to await future rehabilitation and site redevelopment. Other buildings associated with the Scholle Farm are demolished and the site cleared. The brick chimney (likely associated with the kitchen stove) appears to be removed at this time.

Unknown
Dates
Several alterations have occurred at unknown dates, including:
• The rear gabled vestibule is likely not original to the 1870s, and may have been added by the Scholle family during their period of ownership.

However, there is no evidence in the record on when it was constructed.

7 The c.1870s year built is based on the Historic Resource Assessment Report for Scholle Farm (Daly, November 2019), however the report does not provide a clear source for that date. Other sources, including the Evaluations of Standing Structures Report (McKenna 2012) and articles by the Pleasant Valley Historical Society have estimated the date as c.1890s. Further archival research to verify the year of construction was beyond the scope of this HSR. 8 In a conversation on July 9, 2024 Christine Scholle, a direct family member, indicated that this was the approximate date of the porch enclosure.

• By 2019, all exterior doors had been removed.
• Porch enclosed on west elevation.
• Several windows have been removed or fully deteriorated since the Scholle Farm House has been removed from its foundation. Plywood panels have been added to the sides of the rear entrance vestibule and covering the east side doorway.
• Rolled asphalt roofing was added at an unknown date after the 1940s, over existing wood shingles.

C. Physical Description
The Scholle Farm House is a one-story, Italianate style single-family residence built circa 1870s. The building is located on the former Scholle Farm site, which is located at the terminus of W. Ponderosa Drive at Springville Drive in Camarillo, CA (Figure 6). The building is orientated to the north, having been removed from its foundation, put on jacks, and moved approximately 250 feet west and rotated 180-degrees to its current temporary location. The wood frame building features a rectangular plan, measuring approximately 42 feet by 47 feet and has horizontal V-groove shiplap wood siding and wide corner boards. The pyramidal hipped roof terminates with a small flat, rectangular top, and is clad in rolled asphalt over existing wood shingles. The roof features overhanging eaves with shallow decorative triple brackets, and cornice indicative of the Italianate style. A central, partial width front porch is capped by a gable-on-hip roof. The residence includes original double-hung wood sash windows with ogee lugs; however, the glass panes are missing. The windows feature simple wood board surrounds with a molded wood lintel and narrow wood sill and apron.

BUILDING EXTERIOR
Primary (North) Façade
The primary (north) façade has a central, covered, partial-width front porch enclosed by fixed, multi- light wood windows and wood casement sash windows without mullions. The porch has a gable-on- hip roof with diamond-pattern decorative wood shingles and a square vent opening at the gable end and is supported by four Tuscan wood columns with the original turned wood balustrade located below. The ceiling of the porch is wood bead-board. The door to the porch is missing but was a wood panel door with three divided lites, surrounded by a four-lite wood transom and wood sidelights, each with two lites above a wood panel. The primary entrance door is missing but features a simple wood board surround with a molded wood lintel. The four windows on the primary façade are double-hung one-over-one wood sash with ogee lugs—although some components or entire sashes are missing. Two windows flank the front porch and two windows flank the main entrance, within the porch.

BUILDING INTERIOR
The Scholle Farm House is a one-story dwelling with a living room, dining room, kitchen, walk-in pantry, three bedrooms, and one bathroom. The overall layout has a flow that separates private from semi-public spaces, with all three bedrooms located along the west façade, partitioned by a central hallway and living room. The entry porch leads into the living room that features beadboard wainscoting and built-in cabinets on the north wall located between the door to the kitchen (east) and the hallway (west). Located directly east of the central living room is the remnants of a wood paneled pocket door that leads into the dining room with a large bay window that leads north into an enclosed side porch, located off the kitchen. The kitchen is at the center of the house and features built-in cabinets, a set of windows over the sink looking out into the enclosed side porch, and a walk-in pantry at the rear. A small bathroom is located in the rear, west of the pantry, and accessed from the primary hallway adjacent to the rear entrance. The majority of the doorways and windows feature wood butted casing with some missing the original molding. The windows have intricate wood sills in the semi-public rooms and simplified sills and casing in the bedrooms. The original hardwood floors are located beneath the linoleum in the living room; however, the remaining rooms only have subfloors with baseboards seen throughout.

D. Summary of Historic Significance

SUMMARY STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE
The 2019 HRA and 2020 EIR found that the Scholle Farm House is eligible for listing in the National Register and California Register under Criterion A/1 and Criterion C/3 for its association with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of history and cultural heritage in Ventura County, California, and the United States and as a rare example of a late-19 th century Italianate cottage directly associated with the agricultural history of Ventura County and the German community in the Springville and Pleasant Valley area. Charles Marion Simmons took ownership of the property in 1987 under the Homestead Land Act, and in 1891 was sold to Christopher (Moritz) Reiman, the father-in-law of Christian Borchard’s grandnephew. The property later was purchased by Edward Henry Scholle, Christian Borchard’s niece’s son, in 1895, and later taken over by his son, Edward H. Scholle, Jr., c. 1930. These extended families of German immigrants lived in close proximity to each other in what was then Springville. The farm remained in agricultural use under the ownership of the Scholle family through the 1970s.

The 2019 HRA and 2020 EIR did not identify a period of significance for the Scholle Farm House.

However, based on the identified reasons for significance and eligibility criteria, the Scholle Farm House appears to have a period of significance extending from c. 1870s, when the house was built, through c.1930, when the farm was taken over by Scholle, Jr. and covering the period of agricultural use by the earliest owners.

The Scholle Farm House was found to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) and California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) under Criterion A/1 (Events) and Criterion C/3 (Design), as well as for listing as a City of Camarillo historic landmark under local Criteria 1, 2, and 3.

HISTORIC INTEGRITY
The Scholle Farm House retains overall historic integrity. It does not retain integrity of location, however, remains located on the former Scholle Farm property. The building also has lost integrity of setting as the surrounding buildings, structures, and landscape features associated with the Scholle Farm have been removed or demolished. However, the building retains integrity of design, materials, and workmanship as it retains a high level of original materials and lacks major alterations. The overall plan, massing, roofline, and wood siding remain in-tact. Many of the wood sash windows are no longer present or have significantly deteriorated, however, the original openings remain along with their wood surrounds. Other features, including the front porch, rear vestibule, and decorative eave brackets are also intact. The brick chimney that rose above the roof was removed, as well as the steps to the front porch and lattice wood vent on the gable end. The residence retains the feeling of an Italianate Cottage and association with the Scholle family.

This section provides an analysis of the relative zones of significance at the Scholle Farm House.

Utilizing accepted standards for the evaluation of historic resources, the major historical features have been identified and visually documented within a series of significance diagrams. For the purposes of this analysis, Page & Turnbull surveyed the building and evaluated their relative significance by categorizing them as “Significant,” “Contributing,” or “Non-Contributing.” These categories are defined as follows and diagrams can be found in Appendix A.

SIGNIFICANT
Definition: Significant spaces, elements or materials characterized by a high degree significance and a high degree of historic integrity and date to the period of significance (c.1870s-c.1930).

Description: Significant features of the Scholle Farm House are primarily composed of the building’s general footprint, massing, original exterior walls, original doors and windows, and applied exterior features and architectural details that have not been modified or have been minimally modified.

Preliminary Guideline: Significant features and materials should be retained and preserved, or where alterations have occurred, be restored. Deteriorated materials should be repaired rather than replaced. Where replacement is necessary due to extensive material deterioration or failure, replacement materials should match the original materials and forms.

CONTRIBUTING
Definition: Contributing elements and interior spaces are characterized by a lesser degree of architectural or historical importance significance, or are historically important, yet altered elements. Contributing elements and spaces may not date to original construction, but do date to the period of significance (c.1870s-c.1930s).

Description: Contributing features of the Scholle Farm House include non-original features that were added during the period of significance, and limited interior material features such as wood window and door surrounds and beadboard wainscotting.

Preliminary Guideline: Contributing elements should be retained where feasible, but are not essential to the building’s ability to convey its overall significance. Where required, alterations and additions should be designed to be compatible with the existing elements and materials. Areas where rehabilitation occurs should be similar to the original materials and assemblies.

PAGE & TURNBULL 22 November 13, 2024

NON-CONTRIBUTING
Definition: Non-Contributing elements and spaces are generally non-historic elements (built or added after the period of significance) or elements that have been altered to the extent that their original character is absent.

Description: Non-Contributing features of the Scholle Farm House include non-original plywood board use to cover several openings, and the windows and doors enclosing the front porch. These spaces and features represent additions and/or alterations that may detract from the building’s historic character.

Preliminary Guideline: Non-Contributing elements are not specifically limited by preservation recommendations, except to note that the overall character of alterations to an historic building must meet the general requirements set forth in the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties (Standards). Furthermore, Non-Contributing additions or features could be removed to improve the building’s overall integrity.

PART 1.2: CONDITIONS ASSESSMENT
The conditions assessment of the Scholle house, surveyed by Page & Turnbull staff on July 9, 2024, provides a detailed overview of the property's state. The weather on the survey day was sunny and dry. The visual survey was conducted from ground level of the exterior and within the interior rooms, excluding the attic, using a digital camera. Conditions were digitally recorded using the Layer application on mobile devices. Additionally, the team performed exploratory demolition to better understand the wall assembly and existing conditions, using only hand tools at two locations: the west wall in Bedroom 1 and the north wall in the Kitchen. All the utility services have been gutted prior to its relocation.

The house has been relocated to its accurate location and currently rests on cribbing. Page & Turnbull staff, along with structural engineers from Holmes, also conducted a visual assessment of the underside of the first floor to evaluate the condition of the rafters and joists. They appear to be in good condition with minor wood damage throughout. Refer to the structural report for more information.

During the same site visit, Page & Turnbull’s team took plan dimensions, ceiling heights and recorded information that was used to produced as-built drawings for the Scholle house. All the measurements were taken with the help of a measure tape and a DISTO.

A. Summary of Existing Conditions
The Scholle House, built in the 1870s, has served many residents throughout its history. However, it has been vacant for the past many years, significantly contributing to its deteriorating condition. The house was relocated in 2022-23 and has since been resting on cribbing. Overall, the house is in poor to fair condition and is rapidly deteriorating.

The roof is a major concern due to its rate of deterioration. Significant bending of the roof eaves to the west and holes in the roof membrane pose a structural threat to the house. The age and lack of maintenance have accelerated the house's deteriorating condition. While the exterior walls appear to be in fair condition, the wall cladding at the east bay window is in very poor condition. Most of the interior finishes are compromised. Below is a recommended treatment approach for the Scholle House, with detailed treatment recommendations provided at the end of this section.

B. Condition Definitions
The building elements conditions are described on a good, fair, or poor rating system, defined as:

Historic Structure Report Scholle Farm House
[24162] FINAL Camarillo, CA

PAGE & TURNBULL 24 November 13, 2024

Good (G)
The building element / feature is intact, structurally sound, and performing its intended purpose.

The component needs no repair or rehabilitation but may need routine or preventative maintenance.

Fair (F)
The building element / feature shows signs of aging and one or more of the following conditions is present:
a) There are early signs of wear, failure, or deterioration, though the component and its features are generally structurally sound and performing their intended purpose; and/or b) There is damage to a feature or component.

Poor (P)
The building element / feature shows signs of deterioration and one or more the following conditions are present:
a) The features are no longer performing their intended purpose. b) Features are missing.
c) Deterioration or damage affects more than 25% of the component; and/or d) The component or features show signs of imminent failure or breakdown.

Unknown (U)
The assembly or feature was not accessible for assessment or not enough information is available to make an evaluation.

C. Conditions Assessment:

This section provides a condition assessment of the building by system. Each system and its associated elements are described, and their condition is noted below. For more detailed recommendations, see the Preservation Recommendations under Work Recommendations.

ROOF
Description:

The Scholle House features a pyramidal hipped roof with a flat top. The roof overhangs on all four sides of the symmetrical house. A gable roof (pediment) , intersecting the main hipped roof, covers the north porch, with a ridge in the center. The roof assembly consists of wood rafters and wood skip sheathing, cladded with wood shingles and reminiscences of some rolled asphalt roofing. A Historic Structure Report Scholle Farm House
[24162] FINAL Camarillo, CA

PAGE & TURNBULL 25 November 13, 2024

temporary plastic covering was attached to the roof to limit its exposure to the external rain and sun.

Condition: Poor
The roof system is in poor condition, with two large holes on the east and south sides allowing water infiltration and exposing the interior to exterior weathering conditions, compromising the building's enclosure. The temporary protective layer has deteriorated and is not providing adequate protection against water infiltration. The original wood shingles have reached the end of their life cycle and cannot be salvaged. On the east, south, and west sides, many shingles are either severely deteriorated or completely gone, exposing the underlying sheathing.

Based on a visual assessment from ground level, the sheathing beneath the roof membrane appears to be in fair condition, with some wood splits and sun damage observed on exposed areas.

However, a more detailed and up-close investigation for the sheathing is required to determine the structural integrity of the sheathing members. The condition of the top, flat part of the roof remains unknown due to limited access, requiring further investigation for a detailed assessment.

ROOF EAVES
Description:

The roof eaves have a wood fascia board, soﬃt, and a cornice consisting of a crown molding and frieze board. All elements are white paint in accordance with the Greek revival style. Decorative triple-wood brackets are evenly spaced and repeated at ﬁxed intervals, with each façade featuring bracket groups mirrored along a central axis.

The north (front) porch has three bracket groups on the north side and two groups on each side, all evenly spaced. The end groups align with the end columns.

Condition : Fair
The fascia board, soffit, and cornice (crown molding and frieze board) are failing in two key areas:
the central part of the east façade and the southwest corner, where there is also roof damage. The southwest corner is more deteriorated compared to the east façade. In this corner, the fascia board, soffit, and cornice are not only failing but have also detached from the roof. Additionally, sections of the fascia board are missing.

Several common conditions include soffits are either detached or displaced, affecting the overall stability and appearance of the eaves. There is widespread peeling paint, which has exposed the underlying layers, further compromising the integrity of the structure. Fascia boards are also detached or displaced, creating intermittent gaps that contribute to the deterioration. Minor corrosion is present around the screwed nails throughout the structure, indicating long-term exposure to the elements.

CHIMNEY
Description:

The Scholle House originally featured two brick chimneys, one located in the bedroom and the other in Bedroom 1. The chimneys are no longer on the house, but the brick flues are still existing from the top of the walls in the attic space to the underside of the roof.

Condition: Poor
The chimneys do not extend beyond the roof and are non-functional and do not serve their intended purpose. Further exploratory assessment is needed to determine the full state of the condition. The sheet metal covering the roof openings is rusted, dented, and bent, indicating it has reached the end of its life cycle.

GUTTER AND LEADERS
Description:

Half rounded metal gutters can be observed at the portions of the roof eaves. They run from the end of the bay window on the east façade, turning south and terminating at the small rear porch.

The gutters do not appear in historical documentation and are not original. There are instances of previously installed leaders are the corner junctions of the roof gutters.

Condition: Unknown
The remaining metal gutters have corroded and appear to be dented from the ground level. It was difficult to access the conditions of the gutter from the ground up. The southwest corner has the gutter detached from the roof assembly.

EXTERIOR WALLS
Description:

There are two types of exterior wall assemblies that form the main enclosure and support the roof above. The walls along the north, east and half of the south facades are wood stud walls, with plywood sheathing and wood siding. Whereas the half of the south façade, and part of the length along the west façade is a vertical siding wall with plywood sheathing and wood siding and is only 3 ¼” thick.

Scholle House is cladded in wood shiplap siding, with V-grove and wood corner boards at each of the four corners. The clapboard siding is painted white with previously painted paint layers evidently visible. These layers have been painted over, rather than thoroughly preparing the surface before painting. Flat wood trim is located at the frieze board, window apron and skirt board.

Condition: Fair
The wood clapboard cladding is generally in fair to poor condition. Typical conditions of deterioration include alligatoring of paint, inconsistent paint layers, and UV damage to some minor splits in the wood. The area below the sill level at the east bay window in the dining room is in poor condition with rusted nails causing the clapboard siding to detach from the wall assembly.

However, splitting of the wood is predominantly observed on the south façade. On all sides, the wood skirt board has severed deterioration and does not run consistently along the entire length of the façade. The board has reached the end of its life cycle and shown signs of splitting and corrosion throughout.

NORTH PORCH
Description:

The north entrance porch is a central, covered, enclosed area. It has a gable-on-hip roof with decorative wood trim and overhangs on three sides. The gable’s flat side features checkered pattern decorative wood shingles and a square vent opening. The roof is supported by six wood columns (four at the front and two on the sides) with the original wood balusters between these. Four columns support the porch pediment, inspired by Greek or Roman designs, they are while, round and feature simple, smooth shafts. The capitals at the top are understated, without much ornamentation, resembling the Tuscan or Doric order and support a simple architrave. The base of each column is square and simple. Two feet high traditional, turned wooden balusters, each featuring a bulbous form that tapers towards the top and bottom. They are evenly placed and support a simple, horizontal top rail that connects the columns. An infill low wall was attached to the interior of the baluster.

Originally intended to be enclosed with a storefront system on all four sides with a centrally located door to the north. However, only mullions remain with signs of broken glazing. There is a beadboard soffit and hardwood flooring.

Condition: Fair
The porch roof is in disrepair condition like the main roof. Wood trim needs repair and the vent framing is missing. The floor is in poor condition and at the end of its life cycle due to weather exposure, leading to water damage, softened wood, and a compromised protective finish. Its structural integrity may be compromised and needs further investigation. The columns exhibit significant signs of wear and tear like chipped paint and weathered wood. The baluster present signs of normal weathering due to exposure to elements, peeling paint and minor cracks in the wood are visible, likely more deterioration will be visible once the infill wall on the interior is to be removed.

The storefront system, including the missing central door and windows, is in very poor condition and not salvageable.

EAST PORCH
Description:

The east porch is located on the east side of the kitchen, serving as a secondary porch and entrance to Scholle House. The porch’s exterior and interior walls have the same wood board cladding, and the ceiling is wood beadboard. Originally an exterior space, the porch was enclosed at some unknown point in the timeline. This alteration is visible through the differences in openings trims and sizes and the presence of exterior cladding through the space. It features three double-hung windows and a single-leaf door with a centered transom. The windows appear to be newer than those on the exterior of the main house. The floor has vinyl sheet flooring and openings in the floor are covered by plywood.

Condition: Fair
The walls of the porch exhibit typical conditions seen on the exterior elevations of Scholle House, with paint cracking and peeling contributing to deterioration. The ceiling is in fair condition, with minor paint and wood deterioration, but heavy soiling and dust accumulation. The windows are in poor condition, with broken or displaced sashes, broken glass, failed sash cords, and paint failure.

The door panel is missing, covered by a sheet of plywood. The transom bar is detached and failing.

WINDOWS
Description:

Most of the windows at Scholle House are double-hung, single-pane, wood windows, with some showing evidence of being multi-light due to remnant mullions. All windows are set in flat wood casings. The house features four windows on the north façade, six on the east, and three each on the south and west façades. There is an attic vent opening on the north side pediment, where the frame is missing. The fixed-pane windows at the north porch entrance have no glazing, only wood mullions indicating the storefront system. There is an interior window on the kitchen’s east wall, reinforcing the evidence of it being originally an open porch.

Condition: Poor
All the windows in Scholle House are in poor, failing to protect the interior from exterior weather while allowing sunlight. It is difficult to operate any of the windows. Common issues include missing glazing, non-operability, broken or shattered glass, broken sash cords, and detached or dismantled sash members. Almost all windows have lost their glazing and putty, with broken glass due to vandalism and weathering over time. Very few windows retain intact historic hardware. However, the exterior and interior trims are in fair condition and salvageable, as are most of the sills. One of the three windows in the bay window is missing its sill, contributing to a faster rate of deterioration of the structural wall and floor below.

DOORS
Description:

There are three main exterior door openings on the north, east, and south façades of Scholle House.

All exterior doors have transom windows above with missing glass panes. The doors were originally wood and encased in flat wood casings, but most of the door panels are now missing. The interior doors are single-panel wood, except for the pocket door separating the living and dining rooms.

Closet doors are sliding wood panels.

Condition: Poor
All the exterior door panels are missing, but the exterior and interior trims are intact and in fair to poor condition, suitable for salvage and repair. The transoms lights retain only the transom bar and side trims, with glazing either missing or broken. All interior doors are in poor condition, with minimal original fabric remaining. The pocket door is in a very poor, irreparable state with broken sliding panels and channels. Most doors have their historic hinges intact, making it easier to identify the door swing.

INTERIOR
Description:

The Scholle Farmhouse is a one-story dwelling with a living room, dining room, kitchen, walk-in pantry, three bedrooms, and one bathroom. The bedrooms are along the west façade, separated by a central hallway, with more public spaces like the living, dining and the kitchen to the east. A small bathroom is in the south, and the pantry is in the southeast corner. The living room features beadboard wainscoting and built-in cabinets. The kitchen also has built-in cabinets and windows.

The ceiling consists of painted or plastered beadboard. Most walls are painted on lath and plaster, but the southwest room shows traces of old wallpaper at the sill level. Linoleum tiles cover the original hardwood flooring.

Condition: Poor
The Scholle House has been abandoned for a long time, leading to accelerated interior deterioration due to lack of maintenance. The bedroom ceilings are severely damaged, with cracks, delaminated plaster, and water stains. Areas affected by roof failures show significant plaster deterioration, with sections of plaster fallen off.

Wall finishes are also in poor to very poor condition, with few walls retaining their original fabric.

Common issues include vertical shear cracks running the full height of the walls, medium cracks originating from door and window trims, and extensive plaster failure.

The original hardwood floors remain intact in many rooms, though most are covered by linoleum tiles. Accumulated dust and debris are prevalent, stemming from deteriorating plaster and external weathering.

PART 2.0: TREATMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
A. Historic Preservation Objectives and Priorities
The Historic Preservation Objectives define the goals for the treatment of the Scholle House. Due to the house being vacant for an extended period, its deteriorating condition is largely due to a lack of care and maintenance. The primary objective of the treatments is to provide recommendations to repair and maintain the house's character-defining features while preserving its historic fabric.

The objectives outline below are understood as priorities for the Scholle Farmhouse:

1. Mitigate structurally unsound conditions.

2. Stabilize materials and structure for continued use as a single-family residence.

3. Stabilize and maintain the exterior envelope of the house.

4. Protect and preserve the significant character-defining features of the Scholle House

TREATMENT OPTIONS BASED ON SECRETARY OF INTERIOR STANDARDS:

The Secretary of the Interior Standards for the treatment of Historic Properties (the Standards) defines four approaches to the treatment of historic properties, explained below. A variety of factors contribute to the selection of an appropriate treatment, including the historic significance, physical condition, proposed use and intended interpretation of the subject properties.

1. Preservation : Focuses on the maintenance and repair of existing historic materials.

Requires retention of the greatest amount of historic fabric, along with the building’s historic form, features and detailing as they have evolved over time, When the property’s distinctive materials, features and spaces are essentially intact and thus convey the historic significance without extensive repair or replacement, when depiction at a particular period of time is not appropriate; and when a continuing or new use does not require additions or extensive alterations, Preservation may be considered as a treatment.

2. Rehabilitation : Acknowledge the need to alter or add to a historic building to meet continuing or new uses while retaining the building’s historic character. When repair and replacement of deteriorated features are necessary; when alterations or additions to the property are planned for a new or continued use; and when its depiction at a particular period is not appropriate, Rehabilitation may be considered as a treatment.

3. Restoration : Allow for the depiction of a building at a particular time in its history by preserving materials from the period of significance and removing materials from other periods. When the property’s design, architectural, or historical significance during a Historic Structure Report Scholle Farm House
[24162] FINAL Camarillo, CA

PAGE & TURNBULL 44 November 13, 2024

particular period outweighs the potential loss of extant materials, features, spaces, and finishes that characterize other historical periods; when there is substantial physical and documentary evidence for the work; and when contemporary alterations and additions are not planned, restoration may be considered as a treatment.

4. Reconstruction : Establish a limited framework for re-creating a vanished or non- surviving building with new materials, primarily for interpretive purposes. When a contemporary depiction is required to understand and interpret a property’s historic value (including the recreation of missing components in a historic district or site); when no other property with the same associative value has survived; and when sufficient historical documentation exists to ensure an accurate reproduction, Reconstruction may be considered as a treatment.

Considering various factors at play, Page & Turnbull has evaluated treatment options for their appropriateness to the treatment of the Scholle House. Scholle House, originally constructed as a private residence, will maintain its use as a residence. The building retains a fair degree of integrity of its significant character defining features but requires significant repairs and additional architectural interventions to make it habitable. Rehabilitation is the recommended approach for the Scholle House.

B. Work Requirements:

The subject property is under the governing jurisdiction of the City of Camarillo. A number of laws, regulation and functional requirements must be taken into consideration in addition to the preservation and rehabilitation scope outlined above. The following codes are applicable to this project:

California Building Code (CBC, Title 24)
California Historic Building Code (Title 24, Part 8)
National Electric Code (NEC)
International Mechanical Code (IMC)
International Plumbing Code (IPC)

C. Work Recommendations and Alternatives
This section of the HSR presents a plan that includes a list of tasks and solutions for the repair and rehabilitation of the historic features that remain at the Scholle House. Where necessary, recommendation or alternatives specific, unique features are identified and provided. It is recommended that rehabilitation work beyond general maintenance and minor repairs be specified, Historic Structure Report Scholle Farm House
[24162] FINAL Camarillo, CA

PAGE & TURNBULL 45 November 13, 2024

designed/ advised by, and conducted under the supervision of a qualified preservation architect.

These treatments are not meant as a substitute for historic preservation- related specifications during construction or for maintenance strategies after the project is completed. Refer to the Conditions Assessment and Physical Description in Part 1 for more details about the material features identified.

Exterior
ROOF:

Roof membrane:

The existing wood shingles have reached the end of their life cycle and should be replaced with new asphalt roof shingles. There are significant holes in the roof towards the east and west that would immediately be repaired. The damaged section should be replaced and tied in properly to the adjacent roofing material.

Underlayment and Sheathin g:

The underlayment and sheathing will be removed and replaced with new plywood sheathing and roof underlayment.

Roof Rafters :

Replace in-kind any damaged wood rafters, if any, as per the structural recommendations.

Match the species and size. Replace any missing rafter tails, sistered ends should not extend visually beyond the top of the exterior walls.

ROOF EAVES:

The existing roof eave assembly includes fascia boards, soffits, and molding profiles. Replace any missing fascia boards, soffits, and molding profiles with materials that match the existing ones. Remove and replace any detached assemblies in-kind. Salvage any parts that are in good condition and prepare them for reinstallation after roof repairs are completed.

Patch and repair any cracks or splits in the wood. Where deep splitting, checking, or rot is present, cut back the wood to sound material and replace the deteriorated portion with a new Dutchman patch that matches the original in species, cut, orientation, profile, and construction. Finally, prep, prime, and repaint the assembly to match the specified color of the exterior walls.

PAGE & TURNBULL 46 November 13, 2024

CHIMNEY:

Remove the two brick chimney interior flues from the first floor and attic space. Patch the resulting holes in the roof and ceiling with new sheathing and gypsum board ceiling respectively. Finish as required.

GUTTER AND LEADERS:

Remove the existing gutters wherever exist. Install new half rounded gutters and rainwater leaders compatible with the historic character of the building. Install new rainwater leaders tied to the city sewer system at all locations to ensure proper drainage away from building foundations.

EXTERIOR WALLS:

Structurally assess wall framing. Where wood component exhibit deterioration that amounts to less than 30% of the component area, repair of the component is recommended over replacement. Where there are areas of deep splitting, checking, or rot, cut back wood to sound material and replace deteriorated portion with new dutchman patch to match the original in species, cut, orientation, profile and construction. Where more than 30% of the component area is badly deteriorated, replace component in-kind. Treat new wood with wood preservative and prime all surfaces except those to be joined with adhesive. Patch smaller cracks, holes and deeper areas of loss with wood patching compound. Correct open joints mechanically where possible, and patch with wood patching compound where a tight joint cannot be achieved. Patch cracks and splits in wood siding and trim according to preservation best practices. Seal all trims around the openings. Remove damaged and flaky paint with the gentlest ways. Prepare, prime for application of new paint.

General Maintenance:

Keep the wood surfaces clean of environmental soiling and debris to maintain proper drainage and mitigate opportunities for rot. Prepare, prime and paint wood components with appropriate, high-quality coating to match the overall paint of the exterior wood siding.

Repaint every 7-10 years to maintain coating in sounds condition and protect substrate.

Project: 24235.10
3 1 INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE OF WORK
Holmes US (Holmes) was engaged by Page & Turnbull (P&T), on behalf of Rancho (Camarillo) Associates, LP, to perform a structural assessment of the Scholle Farmhouse, located at W Pondersa Dr and Springville Dr in Camarillo, California. The purpose of this assessment is to identify existing gravity and lateral deficiencies, identify building code triggers and recommend structural scope and improvements for the relocation and rehabilitation of the Farmhouse.

This report outlines the findings of our structural assessment. This assessment is based primarily on a walkthrough of the building and as-built architectural drawings. Holmes’ scope of work, as outlined in the agreement between Holmes and P&T dated March 8, 2023, was generally as follows:
 Perform a site visit of the building to observe key structural components and assess structural condition and integrity.
 Review documentation available for the site, including previous reports, photographs, and other applicable background information and proposed architectural rehabilitation.  Identify applicable Building Code references and mandatory Code retrofit triggers.  Perform limited quantitative analysis of the existing structure and/or preliminary analysis of new framing required to rectify existing conditions.
 Recommend structural improvements.

2 LIMITATIONS
Findings presented as a part of this project are for the sole use of P&T and Rancho (Camarillo) Associates, LP in its evaluation of the subject property. The findings are not intended for use by other parties and may not contain sufficient information for the purposes of other parties or other uses. Our professional services are performed using a degree of care and skill normally exercised, under similar circumstances, by reputable consultants practicing in this field at this time.

No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made as to the professional advice presented in this report.

No material sampling or destructive testing has been undertaken and no geotechnical report was available for our review.

Our conclusions are based on our visual observations and experience with buildings of this type. 3 DOCUMENTS REVIEWED
The following documents were reviewed as part of this assessment:

4 SITE AND EXISTING BUILDING DESCRIPTION

4.1.1 Site Description and Hazards
The Scholle Farmhouse is located at W Pondersa Dr and Springville Dr in Camarillo. The Farmhouse was located on the Scholle Farm, an approximately-153 acre farm that was owned by the Scholle family for several generations before being sold in 1970. An 11.65 acre parcel of this land north of Highway 101 and west of Springville Dr is currently being subdivided and developed and will become the Ran Rancho Courtyard Homes project; the Scholle Farmhouse was moved from its prior location in 2022 and will be relocated to a flat, 0.31 acre lot on the southeast corner of the development.

Project: 24235.10
4 A geotechnical report was not available for review when preparing this report. However, review of the California Department of Conservation Earthquake Hazard Zones interactive map indicates that the development lies within a liquefaction hazard zone and adjacent to an Alquist Priolo fault zone. We recommend a geotechnical report be produced, which can provide specific recommendations relating to these hazards.

4.1.2 Building Type
The Scholle Farmhouse was constructed circa 1870, and circa 1904 the structure was relocated to the Scholle Farm. The wood framed house is rectangular in plan and measures approximately 45’-0”x47’-0” and 2115 square feet. It has historical significance and “is eligible for listing in the National Register and California Register under Criterion A/1 and Criterion C/3 for its association with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of history and cultural heritage in Ventura County, California”

1. We understand that the Farmhouse has functioned as a private single-family residence throughout its lifespan. No change in Occupancy is planned as part of the development, and the house will be sold to a private buyer after completion of the rehabilitation.

4.2 Existing Structure
A site walk was performed by Justin Sharkey of Holmes US on July 9, 2024 to visually observe the existing building; no existing structural drawings were available for review. At the time of the site visit, the structure had already been lifted from its previous foundation and relocated close to its intended location within the development. The structure was temporarily supported on steel beams on wood cribbing, allowing the floor framing to be observed.

Proposed Development
Proposed Farmhouse Location

Project: 24235.10
6 While parts of the structure were observed to be in good condition, other areas (notably the roof) are in poor condition and require repair.

4.2.1 Gravity Structure
The gravity structure of the Farmhouse is wood framed. As is typical for buildings of a similar vintage, there is no hardware (such as metal hangers, clips or straps). Member connections appeared to be bearing only or attached with nominal nailing.

Roof Framing
Roof framing was exposed from within the attic, which was accessible from a hatch within the main corridor. The roof structure features a tall, hipped roof with a rectangular flat-top and gable end over the front (north) patio. 2”x4” (nominal) wood rafters spaced at 30” on-center support horizontal 1” skip-sheathing. The rafters span from the eave to the flat-top or to 2”x6” hip rafters with an intermediate horizontal wood purlin on each roof elevation. The flat-top does not have any vertical support, and so presumably the framing relies on compression within the system for support that would be resolved by tension at the ceiling level.

The roof finishes and sheathing have deteriorated over time, leaving large holes in the roof visible from the exterior. The rafters are generally in good condition, but lack a direct load path to the wall framing below:
 Purlins are supported by wood posts. Some wood posts do not align with wall studs and so are supported by shallow ceiling joists, 1x bridging members spanning to ceiling joists.  Rafters are not directly supported by the exterior stud framing. The rafters are instead supported on ceiling joists cantilever that past the studs.

The above has resulted in damage of some purlin members and excessive deflection at the roof eaves.

Project: 24235.10

Figure x- Rafters supported on cantilevered ceiling joists at top right of photo.

Ceiling Framing

Project: 24235.10
8 Ceiling framing members are typically 2”x4” (nominal) that span east-west. Spacings vary between 16”-30” on-center.

Despite spans of up to 15’-0”, the ceiling members generally appear in good condition.

Wall Framing
Limited portions of the existing finishes were removed to observe the wall framing. Where observed, studs were 2”x4” (nominal) spaced at 16” on-center. Notably, exterior wall studs were not found along an approximate 37’-0” length of wall at the southwest corner of the structure. This location coincides with noticeable deflection in the roof structure, with the roof being supported on exterior tongue and groove wood siding only. It is unclear how lintels over existing window openings are framed.

Figure X- Deflecting roof eave at southwest corner of building

Floor Framing
Floor framing consists of 2”x6” (nominal) floor joists spanning east-west. Joists are spaced at 24” on-center and support 1” thick straight sheathing. The members are typically in two lengths, with a splice occuring approximately 16’-0” from the western wall. The original wood girders had been cut when the house was moved from its foundations, but appeared to be 4”x4” members. Based on the existing wall layout and what could be obseved of the girders, it is likely that the floor joists also supported roof and ceiling loads.

Floor framing was generally observed to be in good condition, though some deterioration and termite damage was observed.

Project: 24235.10
9 Figure X- Straight sheathing boards over 2”x6” floor joists. Temporary cribbing supporting the structure is seen in the background of the photo.

Foundations
Original foundations were not observed given that the building had already been moved. Based on the historical photos from Dennis Hill provided by Page & Turnbull, it appears that the Farmhouse was supported on a continuous, wood- framed perimeter cripple wall that was likely on a concrete strip footing. It is unknown how the interior foundations were framed, though similar buildings of this vintage were supported on wood posts on small, unreinforced concrete footings.

4.2.2 Lateral Force Resisting Structure
The primary Lateral Force Resisting System (LFRS) in this structure is likely the wood framed walls, with resistance provided by the exterior wood siding and plaster on wood-lath. Interior, non-structural partitions are assumed to contribute to the structure’s lateral resistance; however, since these are supported on the first-floor joists rather than stacking to the foundation, in- and out-of-plane discontinuities in the load resisting system exist. Extensive cracking to the plaster finishes was observed, which could have resulted from deterioration over time and/or from the relocation process.

Some deterioration to the existing wood siding, including wood rot separation/warping of the siding boards from moisture exposure was also observed.

At the roof, seismic inertial loads are transferred to the exterior walls by the horizontal ‘skip-sheathing’ boards that act as a diaphragm, and at the attic level, the plaster ceilings likely function as a diaphragm. Holes in the roof finishes have exposed large areas of the sheathing boards to moisture, resulting in deterioration of these elements. No quantitative assessment of the diaphragms has been made in preparation for this report, though there appears to be a lack of adequate positive connections between the walls and diaphragms to form a complete lateral load path.

We understand that P&T are proposing to remove the existing plaster on wood lath wall and ceiling finishes throughout the structure and replace these with gypsum wallboard. Gypsum wallboard typically has a lower shear resistance than

Project: 24235.10
10 plaster on wood lath, so any potential weakening of the existing lateral force resisting system must be carefully considered against the required strength of the structure.

4.2.3 Non-Structural Systems
In addition to the architectural components (walls and ceiling finishes) that are part of the LFRS, the structure contains some additional non-structural systems, including two chimneys and Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) systems.

We understand that existing chimneys will be removed, and any penetrations in the ceiling and roof patched. We also understand that all existing MEP components will be removed and replaced with new systems. This includes proposed mechanical units and ducting within the attic. New non-structural systems will be required to be supported and braced in accordance with the current requirements of the California Building Code and, more specifically, Chapter 13 of ASCE 7.

Replacement or reinforcement of the existing ceiling joists will likely be required locally, where supporting new MEP equipment.

New exterior stairs are also proposed on the north and east elevations, connecting grade and the first floor. These stairs will also be required to be designed in accordance with the California Building Code (CBC). 5 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
The following is a summary of the statutory requirements per the California Historic Building Code (CHBC) and California Existing Building Code (CEBC) that could trigger a mandatory seismic analysis and retrofit of the Scholle Farmhouse.

Commentary pertaining to the proposed architectural program is also included.

5.1.1 Current Seismic Retrofit Ordinances
The existing single-family residence is considered historic with no proposed change of occupancy. We do not anticipate the building will be subject to any current mandatory seismic retrofit ordinances by the City of Camarillo.

5.1.2 California Historic Building Code
We understand this project is proposed to be permitted under the 2022 CHBC. The CHBC is permitted for use as an alternative building standard and regulation in repairs, alterations, and additions necessary for the preservation, restoration, rehabilitation, moving or continued use of a qualified historical building or structure. Given the proposed architectural program to relocate the remediate the existing structure, the structurally relevant sections of the CHBC are listed below, with structural recommendations provided in Section 6 of this report.

Section 8-703 Structural Survey
8-703.1 Scope: When a structure or portion of a structure is to be evaluated for structural capacity under the CHBC, it shall be surveyed for structural conditions by an architect or engineer knowledgeable in historical structures. The survey shall evaluate deterioration or signs of distress. The survey shall determine the details of the structural framing and the system for resistance of gravity and lateral loads. Details, reinforcement and anchorage of structural systems and veneers shall be determined and documented where these members are relied on for seismic lateral resistance.

Commentary: The site visit and observations by Holmes on July 9, 2024, satisfy the requirements of this section.

Section 8-704 Nonhistorical Additions and Nonhistor ical Alterations

Project: 24235.10
11 8-704.2: New nonhistorical additions which impose vertical or lateral loads on an existing structure shall not be permitted unless the affected part of the supporting structure is evaluated and strengthened, if necessary, to meet regular code requirements.

Commentary: Proposed architectural alterations and additions, including extension of the eastern porch, new stairs, and new interior partition walls will be designed in accordance with the CBC. If these additions impose loads on existing framing members, these will be evaluated per the CBC and strengthened, if necessary. The weight of the proposed alterations will be included in any lateral load analysis.

Section 8-705 Structural Regulations
8-705.1 Gravity Loads: The capacity of the structure to resist gravity loads shall be evaluated and the structure strengthened as necessary. The evaluation shall include all parts of the load path. Where no distress is evident, and a complete load path is present, the structure may be assumed adequate by having withstood the test of time if anticipated dead and live loads will not exceed those historically present.

Commentary: Framing where dead and live loads will not exceed the original loads, and which are not damaged or distressed, can remain in place without being evaluated or reinforced to current code standards. Given that there will be no change in occupancy, the design live load for the structure will remain the same. Where repairs are required, such as at the roof, we recommend selecting finishes with a weight equivalent to the original finishes, so analysis is not required for the typical rafters. Addition of any roof sheathing will be considered against the existing skip-sheathing boards that will be replaced.

Removal of the existing plaster wall and ceiling finishes and replacement with gypsum wallboard is anticipated to reduce the dead load on the supporting elements such as the ceiling joists, wall studs and floor joists. This may provide some leeway for the support of new fixtures or finishes elsewhere.

Distress and an incomplete load path were observed in the following locations:
 Purlins supporting the rafters, and rafter support at exterior walls, typically.  Missing exterior wall stud framing at southewest corner of building.

Strengthening, including new framing elements and foundations designed per the CBC, shall be provided to provide a complete load path in these areas.
8-705.2. Wind and Seismic Loads: The ability of the structure to resist wind and seismic loads shall be evaluated. Wind loads shall be considered when appropriate, but need not exceed 75% of the wind loads prescribed by the regular code.

8.705.2.1: Any unsafe conditions in the lateral-load-resisting system shall be corrected, or alternative resistance shall be provided. When strengthening is required, additional resistance shall be provided to meet the minimum requirements of the CHBC. The evaluation of structural members and structural systems for seismic loads shall consider the inelastic performance of structural members and their ability to maintain load-carrying capacity during the seismic loadings prescribed by the regular code.

Commentary: Unlike the CEBC, the CHBC does not prescribe a minimum level of resistance that the structure needs to meet, instead leaving this up to engineering judgement. Given that most of the lateral force resisting elements (plaster finishes) will be removed as part of the rehabilitation, creating a potentially unsafe condition, we recommend designing new plywood sheathing over the existing wood framing to form new wood diaphragms and shear walls that can adequately resist the lateral loads. In the absence of minimum loading requirements and considering the intent to sell the

Project: 24235.10
12 rehabilitated structure to a private owner, we recommend following the CEBC, and designing the existing lateral force resisting systems for 75% of the CBC.

Section 8-706 Lateral Load Regulations
8-706.1 Seismic Forces: Strength-level seismic forces used to evaluate the structure for resistance to seismic loads shall be based on the R-values tabulated in the regular code for similar lateral-force-resisting systems including consideration of the structural detailing of the members where such R-values exist.

The forces need not exceed 0.75 times the seismic forces prescribed by the regular code requirements.

Commentary: New wood shear walls and diaphragms will be designed using the R-values prescribed in the CBC. 8-706.1 Load Path: A complete and continuous load path, including connections, from every part or portion of the structure to the ground shall be provided for the required forces. It shall be verified that the structure is adequately tied together to perform as a unit when subjected to earthquake forces.

Commentary: The proposed new LFRS will be designed with adequate hardware and connections, including shear transfer clips, holdowns, screws and anchor rods/bolts, to ensure a complete lateral load path from the roof to the new foundation.

5.1.3 California Existing Building Code
The 2022 California Existing Building Code provides specific requirements for relocated structures. Relocation is mentioned briefly in the CHBC, although without prescriptive language. We recommend following the CEBC as it relates to the relocation of the Scholle Farmhouse. Relevant sections are listed below.

Chapter 14 Relocated or Moved Buildings
1404.2 Foundation: The foundation system of relocated buildings shall comply with the California Building Code or the California Residential Code, as applicable.

Commentary: The new foundation system for the structure will be designed per the 2022 CBC. We anticipate that the new foundation system will include wood girders and wood posts on concrete spread footings supporting the existing floor joists, and a perimeter concrete stem wall and concrete strip footing supporting the exterior walls. The foundations will also be designed for 75% of the current code seismic forces. 6 STRUCTURAL RECOMMENDATIONS
As described in the scope of work, we have carried out a limited quantitative assessment of the building, based upon the existing conditions observed during our site visit on 07/09/24 and the proposed architectural program.

6.1 Seismic Strengthening
We recommend a partial seismic retrofit for this structure, designed for 75% of CBC forces, which will establish a defined lateral load path and mitigate the removal of the existing finishes. The partial retrofit will include:
 Removal of existing skip-sheathing boards at the roof and design of new plywood sheathing diaphragm with sufficient capacity to transfer the roof inertial seismic mass to the exterior walls.  Design new plywood sheathing diaphragm at the attic level with sufficient capacity to support the seismic out-of- plane loads from the interior non-structural partitions.

Project: 24235.10
13  Provide plywood sheathing over existing exterior wall piers to create shear walls to transfer the seismic loads from the roof and attic into the new perimeter concrete stem wall and strip footings. The shear walls shall be connected to the new concrete stem walls with sill anchor bolts and anchor rods to transfer shear and overturning tension/compression forces, respectively.
 Provide positive connections between the existing roof and wall framing to the new diaphragms and shear walls to establish a reliable load path for seismic forces.

6.2 Gravity Strengthening
Deficiencies in the existing gravity framing and load path were identified in the structure. We recommend the following strengthening to mitigate the observed deficiencies:
 Replace the existing roof purlins that support the rafters where these are damaged.  Resupport the roof purlins with new strut members that are positively connected to the purlins and to the new ceiling diaphragm. The struts shall be located to minimize the cantilever of the purlins and be oriented as close to vertical as possible while aligning with wall framing below. A new 4”x4” wood post shall be located within the existing wall framing to transfer the roof load to the new foundation.  Provide a new cripple stud wall between the top of the exterior walls and underside of rafter framing to provide a direct load path to the wall framing, mitigating the existing load path that relies on cantilevered ceiling joists.  Existing ceiling joists have been evaluated for attic storage live loads. New 2”x8” ceiling joists shall be provided wherever the attic is intended to function as a storage space. Once the locations and weights of MEP equipment have been coordinated the ceiling joists can also be evaluated for these loads.  Existing header framing has not been evaluated, but we recommend allowance for new headers over windows where an increase in attic live loads is proposed.

6.3 New Foundation Framing
New foundation framing will be designed in accordance with the 2022 CBC to support all dead and live loads and 75% of the CBC seismic forces. We anticipate that the foundation framing will include:
 Wood girders provided at a spacing of approximately 8’-0” on-center. This spacing is based on preliminary evaluation of the existing joist framing such that reinforcement of the joists will not be required.  Wood posts to support the girders, with positive connections provided by a proprietary post-cap and post-base or similar products. Post spacing shall be selected to provide an efficient layout and minimize footing work.  Perimeter reinforced concrete stem wall with pressure treated sill plate that will support the exterior walls and joist framing. The sill plate shall be connected to the stem wall with anchor bolts, and new rim joists or blocking between existing joists with screws and shear clips shall be provided to connect the existing stud wall bottom plate and sheathing to the joists and new sill plate.
 Concrete strip footings will be designed to support the perimeter stem walls. Concrete spread footings, at a minimum, will support the interior wood posts. Footings will be designed based on the allowable bearing pressures provided by the geotechnical engineer.
 Note that, given the potential presence of liquefiable soils at the project site, the geotechnical engineer may recommend a network of strip footings to tie the foundation together and prevent differential settlement in a seismic event.

Structural schematic sketches in Appendix A summarize the proposed structural recommendations that are listed above.

Project: 24235.10
14 7 CONCLUSION AND NEXT STEPS
The Scholle Farmhouse is a historic, wood framed building that will be relocated to new, permanent foundations and rehabilitated for purchase by a new owner. Holmes observed the existing structure in July of 2024 and subsequently completed qualitative and limited quantitative analysis of the existing framing based on an understanding of proposed architectural scope and the requirements of both the California Historic Building Code and the California Existing Building Code. Holmes has provided structural recommendations to reinforce damaged and/or incomplete gravity and lateral load paths and for the new foundations.

Based on the structural recommendations we have provided for the Scholle Farmhouse we recommend the following next steps:
 Engage a geotechnical engineer to complete an investigation and provide their design recommendations for this project.
 Coordinate the proposed structural recommendations with the architectural program before progressing into a detailed design phase.
 Discuss the proposed structural recommendations with Rancho (Camarillo) Associates, LP to confirm their understanding of the limitations of the proposed strengthening. The recommendations provided within this report are considered a partial seismic retrofit only, which is permitted under the CHBC. A complete seismic retrofit that brings the structure up to the prescribed strength level of the CEBC would involve additional analysis and reinforcement but likely would not represent a large cost delta to the overall project.  Engage a General Contractor specialized in historic structure retrofit and rehabilitation to review and provide feedback on the recommendations provided in this report.

I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Scholle Farm House (APN 157-0-020-210) is located in Ca- marillo, California, where W. Ponderosa Drive terminates at Springville Drive, north of US-101. As part of the Ran Rancho Courtyard Homes Development of the Springville Speciﬁ c Plan Amendment, the Scholle Farm House was found to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) and California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) un- der Criterion A/1 (Events) and Criterion C/3 (Design), as well as for listing as a City of Camarillo historic landmark. The house will be rehabilitated for continued use as a single-family residence. The existing home is a single story and measures 1,890 square feet.

The existing 11.65-acre parcel will be subdivided for the Springville Speciﬁ c Plan project, leaving the Scholle Farm House on an approximately 0.31-acre parcel at the southeast corner lot of the development.

Regulatory Framework
This report is prepared to satisfy the following Conditions of Approval and Mitigation Measures for the Springville Speciﬁ c Plan Amendment.

I.1 CONDITIONS FOR APPROVAL MM 3.4-1B:

Prior to the issuance of grading permits, the project proponents shall retain the services of a historic architect who meets the Sec- retary of Interior’s Standards for Professionals, and has at least 10 years of experience with using the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guide- lines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring, & Reconstructing Historic Properties Buildings (Kay D. Weeks and Anne E Grimmer, revised 2017) (SOIS) to develop the plan for moving and reha- bilitating the Scholle Farm House. Using a historic architect who has experience working with the SOIS will ensure the move and rehabilitation plans meet the requirements of the California Envi- ronmental Quality Act (CEQA).

III. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
The Scholle Farm House is a one-story, Italianate style single-fam- ily residence built circa 1870s. The building is located on the former Scholle Farm site, which is located at the terminus of W.

Ponderosa Drive at Springville Drive in Camarillo, CA. The building is orientated to the north, having been removed from its founda- tion, put on jacks, and moved approximately 250 feet west and rotated 180-degrees to its current temporary location. The wood frame building features a rectangular plan, measuring approx- imately 42 feet by 47 feet and has horizontal V-groove shiplap wood siding and wide corner boards. The pyramidal hipped roof terminates with a small ﬂ at, rectangular top, and consists of wood shingles and rolled asphalt rooﬁ ng. The roof features over- hanging eaves with shallow decorative triple brackets, and cor- nice indicative of the Italianate style. A central, partial width front porch is capped by a gable-on-hip roof. The residence includes original double-hung wood sash windows with ogee lugs; how- ever, the glass panes are missing. The windows feature simple wood board surrounded with a molded wood lintel and narrow wood sill and apron.

IV. SITE HISTORY SUMMARY
In 1850, California became the 31st state to join the United States and by 1866, the town of San Buenaventura (Ventura) was in- corporated; becoming the ﬁrst ofﬁcially recognized town in what would become Ventura County. As summarized in the Historic Resource Assessment Report for Scholle Farm (2019) prepared by Pamela Daly of Daly & Associates:

In the 1860s and 70s, the lower half of California was hit by disas- trous ﬂoods, and they were immediately followed by droughts that caused the death of thousands of beef cows raised on the rancho lands. The overextended ranchers were forced to set- tle the loans they had entered into by selling their lands to the lenders. Many thousands of acres of the historic lands of Ran- chos Santa Clara del Norte, Las Posas, Rio de Santa Clara, and Calleguas located between the community of San Buenaventura and Port Hueneme, in what was then Santa Barbara County, were sold to the settlers coming to California. The United States Gov- ernment began to sell their excess lands in Ventura County in the 1870s as well.

The ﬁ rst owner of the land that eventually encompassed the Scholle Farm was Charles Marion Simmons, a farmer from Ken- tucky who settled in Ventura County before 1869. Prior to his move to California, Simmons lived in Illinois and Oregon with his ﬁ rst wife, Nancy Smith, and their four children. Simmons remar- ried in 1869 to Mary Ann Starke and was listed as a farmer in San Buenaventura Township in the 1870 census. In 1874, under the “Cash Sale” conditions of the Homestead Land Act, Charles Simmons was awarded a patent for 153.48 acres of land in Ven- tura (formerly the San Buenaventura District of Santa Barbara County). On October 12, 1875, both Simmons and his wife Mary, died and bequeathed the land to their eldest son Rollin. The land was likely leased to a neighborhood farmer until 1891 when the lot was sold to Moritz Reiman. In 1895, Edward Henry Scholle, an extended member of the Scholle-Borchard family and related to Reiman through marriage, purchased the property and estab- lished the farmstead known as “Scholle Farm.”

The 2019 HRA and 2020 EIR did not identify a period of signiﬁ - cance for the Scholle Farm House. However, based on the iden- tiﬁ ed reasons for signiﬁ cance and eligibility criteria, the Scholle Farm House appears to have a period of signiﬁ cance extending from c. 1870s, when the house was built, through c.1930, when the farm was taken over by Scholle, Jr. and covering the period of agricultural use by the earliest owners.

The Scholle Farm House was found to be eligible for the National Register and California Register under Criterion A/1 (Events) and Criterion C/3 (Design), as well as for listing as a City of Camarillo historic landmark under local Criteria 1, 2, and 3.

V. HISTORIC STATUS
The 2019 HRA and 2020 EIR found that the Scholle Farm House is eligible for listing in the National Register and California Regis- ter under Criterion A/1 and Criterion C/3 for its association with events that have made a signiﬁ cant contribution to the broad patterns of history and cultural heritage in Ventura County, Cali- fornia, and the United States and as a rare example of a late-19th century Italianate cottage directly associated with the agricultural history of Ventura County and the German community in the Springville and Pleasant Valley area. Charles Marion Simmons took ownership of the property in 1987 under the Homestead Land Act, and in 1891 was sold to Christopher (Moritz) Reiman, the father-in-law of Christian Borchard’s grandnephew. The property later was purchased by Edward Henry Scholle, Christian Borchard’s niece’s son, in 1895, and later taken over by his son, Edward H. Scholle, Jr., c. 1930.

VII. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed project for the Scholle Farm House is to rehabili- tate the building for continued use as a single-family residence.

A detached garage will be part of the project. The project is one component of the Santa Susana Estates subdivision Ran Rancho Courtyard Homes development project. The description below is based upon the construction document set currently being pre- pared by Page & Turnbull and will be submitted for permits. The set also includes civil drawings by Stantec Civil Engineers, land- scape plans by Studio PAD Landscape Architecture, structural plans by Holmes Engineering, mechanical, electrical and plumb- ing plans by Budlong Engineers.

VII.1 SCHOLLE FARM HOUSE REHABILITATION
Much of the Scholle Farm House exterior will be repaired and restored, including the wood siding, wood windows, and the roof eave and its decorative wood brackets. The enclosed front (north) porch with
ﬁ xed, multi-light wood windows and wood
casement sash windows without mullions will be removed to return it to an open porch. The building will be re-roofed with new asphalt shingles. New concrete foundation walls will be con- structed at an approximate height of the original foundation.

Visible alterations will include modiﬁ cation to the center of the south (rear) façade with the demolition of the existing gabled ves- tibule. The enclosed porch on the east elevation will be removed and a new open porch will be constructed. The main interior spaces of the Scholle Farm House will generally remain, includ- ing the living room, kitchen, (3) bedrooms, and dining room. The living room will be expanded to the east with the relocation of the existing French pocket door opening and trim. The middle exist- ing bedroom and the north bedroom will be reconﬁ gured to pro- vide an ensuite bathroom for the primary bedroom. The existing bath will be renovated and expanded to create more storage. The kitchen will remain in the same location. It will be renovated and NORTH

VIII. EXTERIOR TREATMENTS
Within this section are detailed overviews of the primary exterior character-deﬁ ning features of the Scholle Farm House. All repair and Rehabilitation work on character-deﬁ ning features will follow the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of His- toric Properties and the Guidelines for the Treatment of Historic Properties. Repair mock-ups during construction for review by the historic architect are recommended for these features.

REPAIR AND COMPONENT REPLACEMENT RATIONALE
Where wood component exhibit deterioration that amounts to less than 50% of the component area, repair of the component is recommended over replacement. Where there are areas of deep splitting, checking, or rot, cut back wood to sound material and replace deteriorated portion with new dutchman patch to match the original in species, cut, orientation, proﬁ le and construction.

Where more than 50% of the component area is badly deteriorat- ed, replace component in-kind. Treat new wood with wood pre- servative and prime all surfaces except those to be joined with adhesive. Patch smaller cracks, holes and deeper areas of loss with wood patching compound. Correct open joints mechanically where possible, and patch with wood patching compound where a tight joint cannot be achieved.

VIII.1 ROOF

PYRAMIDAL HIPPED ROOF WITH FLAT TOP

DESCRIPTION
The pyramidal hipped roof with a ﬂ at top. The roof overhangs on all four sides of the symmetrical house. A gable roof (pediment), intersects the hipped roof, covering the north porch. The roof assembly consists of wood rafters and skip sheathing, original wood shingles, and remnants of a later applied rolled asphalt rooﬁ ng material.

CONDITION1
Poor
large holes on the east and south sides allow water inﬁ ltration and exposing the interior to exterior weathering conditions, compromising the building’s enclosure. The temporary protective layer is not providing adequate protection. The rolled asphalt shingles have reached the end of their life cycle and cannot be salvaged.

The sheathing presents wood splits and sun damage observed on exposed areas.

TREATMENT

1. Install temporary tarp protection to mitigate further interior damage.

2. Conduct structural assessment on roof framing mem-
bers.

3. Remove all roo ﬁ ng material and skip sheathing.

4. Replace damaged members in-kind. Add additional
structural support as required to support new roof
assembly.

5. Install new sheathing and underlayment.

6. Replace all ﬂ ashing in-kind; Install additional ﬂ ashing as needed without compromising the historic charac-
ter of the building.

7. Repair wood fascia, beadboard so ﬃ t and molding
1 Additional investigation required to determine the structural integrity of the sheathing members. The condition of the top, ﬂ at part of the roof remains unknown due to limited access, requiring further investigation for a detailed assessment.

OVERHANGING EA VES WITH TRIPLE WOOD BRACKETS

DESCRIPTION
The roof eaves have a wood fascia board, soﬃ t, and a cornice consisting of a crown molding and frieze board. All elements are white paint in accordance with the Greek revival style. Decorative triple-wood brackets are evenly spaced and repeated at ﬁ xed in- tervals, with each façade featuring bracket groups mirrored along a central axis.

The north (front) porch has three bracket groups on the north side and two groups on each side, all evenly spaced. The end groups align with the end columns.

CONDITION
Fair
The fascia board, soﬃ t, and cornice (crown molding and frieze board) are failing in two key areas: the central part of the east façade and the southwest corner. The fascia board, soﬃ t, and cornice are detached or displaced from the roof on the southeast side. Additionally, sections of the fascia board are missing. There is widespread peeling paint, exposing underlying layers and further compromising the integrity of the structure. Corrosion is present around the screwed nails throughout the structure, indi- cating long-term exposure to the elements.

TREATMENT

1. Clean surfaces with neutral PH detergent and by gen- tlest means possible.

2. Lightly sand and scrape ﬂ aky paint and rust around
nails with hand tools.

3. Inspect cornice molding for dry rot. Use wood hard-
ener in salvageable pieces.

4. Fill in gaps in wood with epoxy.

5. Replace deteriorated members in kind where dam-
age is beyond 50% in component, match wood spe-
cies and grain to the possible extent.

6. Reattach and secure detached/displaced members.

7. Replace missing members in kind. Match wood spe-
cies, grain and proﬁ les.

VIII.2 NORTH PORCH

GABLE-ON-HIP (PEDIMENT)

DESCRIPTION
The north entrance porch is a central, covered, enclosed area. It has a gable-on-hip roof with decorative wood trim and overhangs on three sides. The gable’s ﬂ at side features checkered pattern decorative wood shingles and a square vent opening. The roof is supported by six wood columns (four at the front and two on the sides) with a wood balustrade between these. There is a bead- board soﬃ t and hardwood ﬂ ooring.

CONDITION
Fair
The porch roof is in disrepair just like the rest of the roof. Wood trim needs repair and the vent frame is missing. The ﬂ ooring is at the end of its life cycle due to weather exposure, leading to water damage, softened wood, and a compromised protective ﬁ nish.

Its structural integrity may be compromised and needs further investigation.

VIII.3 EAST PORCH

DESCRIPTION
The east porch is located on the east side of the kitchen, serving as a secondary porch and entrance to Scholle House. The porch’s exterior and interior walls have the same wood board cladding, and the ceiling is wood beadboard. Originally an exterior space, the porch was enclosed at some unknown point in the time- line. The alteration is clearly visible through the diﬀ erences in openings trims and sizes and the presence of exterior cladding throughout the space. The exterior enclosure will be removed to bring back the original layout on the east wall. A new porch will be built oﬀ of the kitchen.

CONDITION
Poor
The walls of the porch exhibit the typical exterior siding deterio- ration, with paint cracking and peeling. The beadboard ceiling is in fair condition but shows heavy soiling and dust accumulation.

TREATMENT

1. Remove non-contributing alterations in space by gen- tlest means possible, minimizing impacts to adjacent
character deﬁ ning features.

2. Treat exterior wood siding by recommendations in
this document.

Interiors

1. Carefully remove wood ﬂ ooring to ﬂ oor framing

2. Install new ﬂ oor sheathing to match existing level

3. Install new compatible wood decking to match exist-
ing level.

4. Remove existing beadboard ceiling.

5. Lightly sand and scrape ﬂ aky paint on walls with hand tools.

6. Replace deteriorated members in kind, match wood
species and grain to the possible extent.

7. Replace missing members in kind. Match wood spe-
cies, grain and proﬁ les.

VIII.4 HORIZONTAL V-GROOVE SHIPLAP WOOD SIDING

DESCRIPTION
Scholle House is cladded in wood V-grove shiplap siding ﬂ anged by corner trims, frieze board and a sill siding trim. The siding is painted white in accordance with the architectural style, previous paint layers are visible through peeling. Openings heads and sills align with the siding pattern.

CONDITION
Fair
Typical conditions of deterioration include alligatoring of paint, peeling, UV damage, and some minor splits in the wood. Rusted nails can be observed on the east façade and some boards are detached. There’re cracked boards, predominantly on the south façade. Cladding at the bay window on the east is severely dete- riorated, due to missing window sill. Wood sill trims are heavily damaged and missing in most cases.

TREATMENT

1. Structurally assess wall framing, replace damaged
members in kind.

2. Replace boards where damage surpasses 30% of the
overall section. Match species and grain.

3. Cleaning the Siding
a. Use a low-pressure washer to clean o ﬀ dirt,
mildew, and old paint. Do not use high pres-
sure, which can damage the wood.
b. For fragile or delicate siding, hand scrub with a
mild detergent by gentlest means possible.

4. Lightly sand and scrape ﬂ aky paint with hand tools.

5. Fill in gaps and cracks in wood with ﬂ exible, paintable caulk

6. Seal all trims around openings

7. Prime and paint by brush application.

VIII.5 WOOD WINDOWS AND TRIM

DESCRIPTION
The Scholle House features double-hung, single-pane, wood windows, in a rhythmic patter across façades. Remnant mullions evidence a multi-light character. Windows are set in ﬂ at wood casings. There is an attic vent opening on the north side pedi- ment, where the frame is missing. There is an interior window on the kitchen’s east wall, reinforcing the evidence of it being origi- nally an open porch.

CONDITION
Poor
Windows are open, unsealed and missing gazing and putty in most cases, allowing weather inclemency to penetrate the building. Operability is diﬃ cult at all instances. Additional issues include missing or broken glazing, missing or deteriorated wood members in sash, cords, sills, aprons and frames. Very few win- dows retain its original hardware. Overall, exterior and interior trims are in fair condition and salvageable.

VIII.6 DOORWAYS

DESCRIPTION
There are three exterior doors openings on the north, east, and south façades respectively. All exterior doors are missing and have transom windows with missing glazing; the doors were origi- nally wood and encased in ﬂ at wood casings. The interior doors are typically single-panel wood, except for the pocket door in the living room. Closet doors are sliding wood panels.

CONDITION
Poor
All exterior doors are missing, exterior and interior trims are still in place. The transoms lights retain only the transom bar and side trims. All interior doors are severely damaged, with minimal orig- inal fabric remaining. The pocket door is in disrepair with broken sliding panels and channels. Most doors retain historic hinges, making it easier to identify the door swing.

SECRETARY OF INTERIOR’S STANDARDS (SOI) ANALYSIS
The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties (the Standards) provide guidance for reviewing the proposed work on historic properties and are a useful analytical tool for understanding and describing the potential impacts of substantial change to historic resources. 3 Projects that limited to maintenance, repair, stabilization, rehabilitation, restoration, preservation, conservation or reconstruction of historical resources in a manner consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties have been determined not to have a signiﬁ - cant eﬀ ect on the environment. As such, they are categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA. 4 The Secretary of the Interior oﬀ ers four sets of standards to guide the treatment of historic proper- ties: Preservation, Rehabilitation, Restoration, and Reconstruction. Typically, one set of Standards is chosen for a project based on the project scope. For the purposes of the proposed project at the Scholle Farm House, the Standards for Rehabilitation, which “acknowledge the need to alter or add to a historic building to meet continuing or new uses while retaining the building’s historic character,” are the appropriate Standards for the proposed project’s scope. 5 The following analysis applies each of the Standards for Rehabilitation to the proposed project at Scholle Farm House, focusing on the exterior character-deﬁ ning features, with mentions of features retained on the interior. The analysis is based on the proposed drawing set by Page & Turnbull, titled, “Scholle House Rehabilitation” dated October 24, 2024 (Attachment A). 3 Anne E. Grimmer, The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Pre- serving, Rehabilitating, Restoring and Reconstructing Historic Buildings, (Washington, D.C.: U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service Technical Preservation Services, 2017). 4 CEQA Guidelines subsection 15300 and 15331.
5 Grimmer, The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties.

Rehabilitation Standard 1: A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that re- quires minimal change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces and spatial relationships.

Discussion: The proposed project involves subdividing the existing 11.65-acre parcel for the Springville Speciﬁ c Plan project. The historic Scholle Farm House has been relocated to a 0.31- acre parcel at the southeast corner of the development. While these changes would change spatial relationships on the formerly agricultural property, the Scholle Farm House has previously been moved from its original location and other former agricultural buildings demolished. The current proposed project does not alter the original use of the building as single-family resi- dentce.

Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Standard 1.

Rehabilitation Standard 2: The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The re- moval of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided.

Discussion: While the site and setting will be transformed from an agricultural site to a residential neighborhood, the currently proposed rehabilitation project retains the Scholle Farm House at a new location on the site. The historic materials and features characteristic of the Italianate-style farmhouse will be retained. Character-deﬁ ning features that will be retained and preserved include the overall massing, pyramidal hipped roof with ﬂ at top, overhanging eaves with triple wood brackets, partial-width front porch, horizontal V-groove shiplap wood siding, fenestration pattern, wood window and door trim, and wood windows, where feasible. Thus, the proposed project will retain and preserve the distinctive historic features of the subject building and will not impact its overall historic character.

Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Standard 2.

Rehabilitation Standard 3: Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken.

Discussion: The proposed project will not add conjectural features or elements from other historic properties. The proposed project includes re-introducing an open porch on the east facade that was previously enclosed. As the east porch was an original feature, this alteration will not create a false sense of historical development, and the proposed open porch will not impact any signiﬁ - cant materials or features.

Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Standard 3.

Rehabilitation Standard 6: Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence.

Discussion: The proposed project calls for repair of historic features and materials rather than replacement with the exception of the replacement of the roof and some original wood sash windows due to their current deteriorated state. Most of the historic windows are proposed to be retained and repaired and removal of original wood windows due to deterioration will not aﬀ ect the overall historic character of the residence. If it is determined that repair of the select windows is not possible due to deterioration or if the window or sash is missing, the windows will be replaced in-kind per the Secretary of the Interior’s Guidelines for the Treatment of Historic Proper- ties; any replacement window will match the old in design (operability and muntin pattern), color, texture, material, and other visual qualities based on the design of other existing historic win- dows. The wood shingle roof, which is deteriorated and was covered in rolled asphalt for many years, will be replaced with an appropriate composition shingle roof that will retain the shingled character of the roof and meet ﬁ re safety requirements. Additional character-deﬁ ning features, including the overhanging eaves with triple wood brackets, central partial-width porch, horizontal V-groove shiplap siding, and wood window and door trim will be retained and repaired, if neces- sary.

Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Standard 6.

Rehabilitation Standard 7: Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used.

Discussion: Chemical or physical treatments, such as sandblasting, are not proposed as part of the project. The siding will be cleaned using a low-pressure washer to clean oﬀ dirt, mildew, and old paint to not damage the wood. Paint that is ﬂ aking will be lightly sanded and scraped with hand tools. If the siding is too fragile, a hand scrub with mild, neutral PH detergent will be used by the gentlest means possible.

Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Standard 7.

Rehabilitation Standard 4: Changes to a property that have acquired historic signiﬁ cance in their own right will be retained and preserved.

Discussion: The period of signiﬁ cance for Scholle Farm House, as identiﬁ ed in the Historic Struc- tures Report, extends from c. 1870s, when the house was built, through c.1930, when the farm was taken over by Scholle, Jr. and covering the period of agricultural use by the earliest owners.

The east porch appears to have been enclosed during the period of signiﬁ cance, but an exact date could not be fully veriﬁ ed; as such, the enclosed porch has been identiﬁ ed as a contributing feature but does not have primary signiﬁ cance in its own right. As such, the re-introduction of the open east porch will not alter any signiﬁ cant features or diminish the overall historic character of the residence.

No other changes to the subject building since its original construction ca. 1870 have gained his- toric signiﬁ cance in their own right. Non-original features of the property, including the rear ves- tibule and front porch fenestration, appear to have been added after the period of signiﬁ cance and have been identiﬁ ed as non-contributing features.

Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Standard 4.

Rehabilitation Standard 5: Distinctive materials, features, ﬁ nishes and construction techniques or exam- ples of craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved.

Discussion: As described in Rehabilitation Standard 2, as proposed, the project will preserve the distinctive features, ﬁ nishes, construction techniques, and examples of craftsmanship that char- acterize the Scholle Farm House as a historic property. The historic materials of the house which convey the techniques and craftmanship of their construction, including the overhanging eaves with triple wood brackets, partial-width porch with Tuscan columns and turned wood balustrade, horizontal V-groove shiplap wood siding, wood window and door surrounds, and wood sash windows, where feasible, will be retained. A portion of the east facade that encloses an originally open side porch will be removed, but the original wood wall and wood windows at the inside of the porch will be retained. As discussed in Standard 9 below, the new railing, posts, and stairs at the east porch will be simple wood features that are compatible yet diﬀ erentiated from the historic building as no documentary evidence of the original porch railing design has been uncov- ered. Additionally, interior features, including wood window and door surrounds and beadboard wainscotting will be retained.

Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Standard 5.

Rehabilitation Standard 8: Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such re- sources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken.

Discussion: The proposed rehabilitation project will not include any excavation of previously un- disturbed ground. If standard procedures are followed in the case of an encounter with archaeo- logical material, the proposed project will be consistent with Standard 8.

Rehabilitation Standard 9: New additions, exterior alterations or related new construction will not de- stroy historic materials, features and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work will be diﬀ erentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment.

Discussion: The proposed project involves removing the wall enclosing a previously open porch on the east elevation and constructing a new open porch railing and stairs. While portions of the exterior siding will be removed to accommodate the re-opened porch, materiality indicates that the porch was originally open and served as a secondary entrance. The original wood walls and windows at the inside of the east porch will be retained. The proposed east porch railing and stairs will be simple wood features that are compatible with the materials of the Scholle Farm House. However, the simple, unornamented design will distinguish the stairs, posts, and railing at the east porch from the historic front porch, which features a more ornamental turned wood baluster and columns.

The proposed project will also introduce a new detached two-car garage, to be located southwest of the house on the lot. The garage will be separate and set back from the residence, allowing the main building to retain its prominence as the focal point of the site.

Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Standard 9.

Rehabilitation Standard 10: New additions and adjacent or related new construction will be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired.

Discussion: The proposed re-opened porch and detached garage, if hypothetically removed in the future, will allow the residence to retain its essential form and integrity. Due to the new garage being detached, if removed in the future, the historic Scholle Farm House will not be aﬀ ected.

Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with Standard 10.

Conclusion
As the above analysis demonstrates, the proposed project, as currently designed, appears to be con- sistent with all ten of the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation. According to CEQA, Guidelines Section 15126.4(b)(1), if a project complies with the Standards for Rehabilitation, the proj- ect’s impact “would generally be considered mitigated below a level of signiﬁ cance and thus is not signiﬁ cant.” Therefore, the proposed project will not result in project-speciﬁ c impacts, and it does not appear that the project has the potential to cause a substantial change to the historical resource as deﬁ ned by CEQA.

VIII.7 HISTORIC PRESERVATION OBJECTIVES AND PRIORITIES
The Historic Preservation Objectives deﬁ ne the goals for the treatment of the Scholle House. Due to the house being vacant for an extended period, its deteriorating condition is largely due to a lack of care and maintenance. The primary objective of the treatments is to provide recommendations to repair and maintain the house’s character-deﬁ ning features while preserving its historic fabric. Page & Turnbull identify the following priorities for the treatment of the building:
□ Continued and Improved Use: Ensure the house continues to function as a private residence. □ Structural Stabilization: Strengthen the house to improve life safety and stability. □ Exterior Envelope Maintenance: Repair and maintain the exterior to protect the house from weathering.
□ Window and Door Restoration: Restore windows and doors to enhance security and safety. □ Feature Preservation: Protect and preserve signiﬁ cant building features that are in good to fair condition.
□ Overall Maintenance: Ensure ongoing maintenance of the Scholle House.

TREATMENT OPTIONS BASED ON SECRETARY OF INTERIOR STANDARDS:

The Secretary of the Interior Standards for the treatment of Historic Properties (the Standards) de- ﬁ nes four approaches to the treatment of historic properties, explained below. A variety of factors contribute to the selection of an appropriate treatment, including the historic signiﬁ cance, physical condition, proposed use and intended interpretation of the subject properties.

1. Preservation: Focuses on the maintenance and repair of existing historic materials. Requires retention of the greatest amount of historic fabric, along with the building’s historic form, features and detailing as they have evolved over time, When the property’s distinctive materials, features and spaces are essentially intact and thus convey the historic signiﬁ cance without extensive repair or replacement, when depiction at a particular period of time is not appropriate; and when a continuing or new use does not require additions or extensive alterations, Preservation may be considered as a treatment.

2. Rehabilitation: Acknowledge the need to alter or add to a historic building to meet continu- ing or new uses while retaining the building’s historic character. When repair and replacement of deteriorated features are necessary; when alterations or additions to the property are planned for a new or continued use; and when its depiction at a particular period is not appropriate, Rehabilitation may be considered as a treatment.

3. Restoration: Allow for the depiction of a building at a particular time in its history by preserv- ing materials from the period of signiﬁ cance and removing materials from other periods. When the property’s design, architectural, or historical signiﬁ cance during a particular period outweighs the potential loss of extant materials, features, spaces, and ﬁ nishes that characterize other historical pe- riods; when there is substantial physical and documentary evidence for the work; and when contem- porary alterations and additions are not planned, restoration may be considered as a treatment.

4. Reconstruction: Establish a limited framework for re-creating a vanished or non-surviving building with new materials, primarily for interpretive purposes. When a contemporary depiction is required to understand and interpret a property’s historic value (including the recreation of missing components in a historic district or site); when no other property with the same associative value has survived; and when suﬃ cient historical documentation exists to ensure an accurate reproduction, Reconstruction may be considered as a treatment.

Considering various factors at play, Page & Turnbull has evaluated treatment options for their appro- priateness to the treatment of the Scholle House. Scholle House, originally constructed as a private residence, will maintain its use as a residence. The building retains a fair degree of integrity of its signiﬁ cant character deﬁ ning features but requires signiﬁ cant repairs and additional architectural interventions to make it habitable. Rehabilitation is the required approach for the Scholle House. 523 West 6th Street, Suite 1013
