Project/Program Details
School of Dramatic Arts (SoDA)
$3,000
The City Council Discretionary Grant will support PacRep’s School of Dramatic Arts (SoDA), which has programs for Monterey County youth, offering low-cost after school classes, summer camps, and the Saturday Academy. It is generally accepted by educators and others that the arts are a powerful vehicle for reaching, motivating, and teaching a student. Without the arts to shape imaginations, young people become culturally deprived as they mature into adulthood. SoDA students are able to shape their imaginations, explore new techniques, think “critically” in new ways that expand their interest in learning, as well as develop verbal skills, self-esteem, teamwork, confidence and self-motivation. The more students live up to the expectations of the SoDA program, the more empowered they become. Helping students grow in the arts is one of the best investments that can be made in the future citizens of our community.

The year-round school is housed at Carmel’s Forest Theater and specializes in all aspects of the performing arts through structured classes and summer camps. SoDAonStage also provides performing opportunities for young people on the stage of the Golden Bough Playhouse and at the Outdoor Forest Theater. SoDA serves children and young people from 4 to 18 years of age. During 2022, we enrolled more than 100 students. We are constantly striving to offer curricula that meet the needs of the children we serve, and we vary our class offerings accordingly. At the same time, we are eager for students to receive a well-rounded theater arts education to prepare them for continued training and to strengthen their ability to succeed in college, business, and in the community. To that end, we have placed a renewed emphasis on offering our SoDA students chances to perform in fully staged productions. In November/December of last year, we produced a very successful run of Rudolph the RedNosed Reindeer, The Musical through our SoDAOnStage program, allowing more than thirty children from all around Monterey County a chance to perform in a professional setting, alongside experienced adult performers, executing numerous musical numbers in full costume and choreography. For many of our younger performers, this was their first theatrical experience.

SoDA Classes, Camps and SoDAonStage productions include children and young people throughout Monterey County, with the majority of the participants residing in the Carmel area and on the Monterey Peninsula. SoDA activities are available to any child who has the time, interest and discipline to participate.

Based upon a 5-year average, we anticipate that 130-150 unduplicated students will participate in SoDA classes and summer camps over the next 12 months. In addition to enrollment numbers, we continue to conduct surveys of SoDA participants and their parents, assessing how students have progressed in the SoDA programs, if students are improving their communication skills, their ability to work as a member of a team, and if SoDA has made a difference in their traditional schoolwork, as well.

Through our free Tix4Kids program, and with three eligible productions in 2022, we welcomed over 500 students to our audiences. While we anticipate similar results in 2023, we have increased the number of organizations and schools who have been invited to participate, so we may see a significant increase in the number of participants. A two-year average shows that over 100 adult chaperones have attended along with the students.

PacRep continues its expansion of arts education outreach, providing teachers and production assistance to schools throughout the county, including providing guidance in the development of the drama programs at Marina and Seaside High Schools, and providing after-school teaching staff for Santa Catalina School and Seaside High.

CITY OF CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA

CITY COUNCIL
Staff Report
May 2, 2023

ORDERS OF BUSINESS
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Chip Rerig, City Administrator
APPROVED BY: Chip Rerig, City Administrator
SUBJECT:

Resolution 2023-056 Authorizing a Letter in Support of California AB 953 (Connolly and Hart) which will Develop a Statewide Voluntary Vessel Speed Reduction and Sustainable Shipping Program
RECOMMENDATION:

Consider adopting Resolution 2023-056 authorizing a letter of support for AB 953 (Connolly and Hart), to develop a statewide voluntary vessel speed (VSR) and sustainable shipping program.

BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

Councilmember Ferlito requested that Council consider authorizing a letter of support for California Assembly Bill 953 (Connolly and Hart), which will develop a statewide voluntary vessel speed (VSR) and sustainable shipping program to reduce air pollution, the risk of fatal strikes on whales, and harmful underwater acoustic impacts.

Summary of AB 953:

This legislation will develop a statewide voluntary vessel speed reduction and sustainable shipping program for the California coast. The bill would build upon the existing Protecting Blue Whales and Blue Skies program as well as any other existing local vessel speed reduction programs. Specifically, it will provide publicity to participants, collect data on program benefits, and will provide financial incentives to participants to the extent funding is available. This program would also expand the Protecting Blue Whales and Blue Skies program for coastal areas of Santa Barbara, Ventura, and the Bay Area, expanding to include Monterey, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, and the North Coast, which would yield additional public health and ecosystem benefits. This bill would task the Ocean Protection Council, in coordination with California air districts along the coast and in consultation with the United States Coast Guard, the federal Office of National Marine Sanctuaries, the federal Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Navy, the State Air Resources Board, and other stakeholders, to create a statewide voluntary vessel speed reduction and sustainable shipping program for the California coast.

Since the Protecting Blue Whales and Blue Skies program’s inception in 2014 through 2021, it has achieved 526,211 slow-speed miles, a reduction of more than 2300 tons of oxides of nitrogen (NOx), a reduction of over 76,000 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions, and an estimated 50 percent decreased risk of fatal whale strikes during prime migration season in the targeted coastal areas. This program has encouraged ocean-going container vessels and other ships to voluntarily travel 10 knots or less in the designated areas to reduce air pollution and harmful whale strikes by providing small incentives and publicity to program participants.

Every year, the world’s largest container ships and auto carriers make thousands of transits along the California coast, with an estimated 120 tons per day of NOx, a major contributor to smog and acid rain, being emitted within 100 nautical miles of the coast. These emissions negatively affect the public health of coastal communities and cause some areas of the coast to exceed national and state ambient air quality standards. However, ocean-going vessels are not subject to any state or federal engine requirements intended for emissions reductions.

Pollution from mobile sources, such as cars, trucks, and ships, accounts for approximately seventy percent of emissions throughout the Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Benito County. Reducing mobile source emissions will have a beneficial effect on air quality and help to improve public and environmental health along California's coast, including Carmel-by-the-Sea.

Recommendation:

Consider adopting Resolution 2023-056 authorizing a letter of support for AB 953 (Connolly and Hart), to develop a statewide voluntary vessel speed (VSR) and sustainable shipping program. If adopted, staff will send the draft letter (attachment 2) to the Assembly Committee on Water, Parks, and Wildlife.

Alternatives:

Council could choose not to adopt the Resolution approving sending a letter of support for AB 953.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None for this action

CITY COUNCIL
RESOLUTION NO. 2023-056

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA AUTHORIZING A LETTER IN SUPPORT OF CALIFORNIA AB 953 (CONNOLLY AND HART) WHICH WILL DEVELOP A

STATEWIDE VOLUNTARY VESSEL SPEED REDUCTION AND SUSTAINABLE SHIPPING PROGRAM WHEREAS, every year, the world’s largest container ships and auto carriers make thousands of transits along the California coast, with an estimated 120 tons per day of NOx, a major contributor to smog and acid rain, being emitted within 100 nautical miles of the coast; and WHEREAS, these emissions negatively affect the public health of coastal communities and cause some areas of the coast to exceed national and state ambient air quality standards; and WHEREAS, ship strikes also pose a major threat to whales during prime migration season, especially in regions such as the Monterey Coast that serve as a primary feeding ground and migratory route for humpbacks and other endangered whale species; and

The Honorable Rebecca Bauer‐Kahan
Chair, Assembly Committee on Water,
Parks, and Wildlife 1020 N Street, Room
160
Sacramento, CA 95814
RE: AB 953 (Connolly and Hart) – Voluntary Vessel Speed Reduction & Sustainable Shipping Program Dear Chair Bauer‐Kahan:

The City of Carmel-by-the-Sea City Council is pleased to support AB 953 (Connolly and Hart).

This legislation will develop a statewide voluntary vessel speed reduction (VSR) and sustainable shipping program for the California coast to reduce air pollution, the risk of fatal vessel strikes on whales, and harmful underwater acoustic impacts. Specifically, the statewide program will provide publicity to participants, collect data on program benefits, and will provide financial incentives to participants to the extent funding is available. This program would build upon the existing Protecting Blue Whales and Blue Skies VSR program for coastal areas of Santa Barbara, Ventura, and the Bay Area, expanding to include Monterey, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, and the North Coast, which would yield additional public health and ecosystem benefits. This bill would task the Ocean Protection Council, in coordination with California air districts along the coast and in consultation with the United States Coast Guard, the federal Office of National Marine Sanctuaries, the federal Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Navy, the State Air Resources Board, and other stakeholders, to create a statewide voluntary vessel speed reduction and sustainable shipping program for the California coast.

Since the Protecting Blue Whales and Blue Skies program’s inception in 2014 through 2021, it has achieved 526,211 slow‐speed miles, a reduction of more than 2,300 tons of oxides of nitrogen (NOx), a reduction of over 76,000 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions, and an estimated 50 percent decreased risk of fatal whale strikes during prime migration season in the targeted coastal areas. This program has encouraged ocean‐going container vessels and other ships to voluntarily travel 10 knots or less in the designated areas to reduce air pollution and harmful whale strikes by providing small incentives and publicity to program participants.

Every year, the world’s largest container ships and auto carriers make thousands of transits along the California coast, with an estimated 120 tons per day of NOx, a major contributor to smog and acid rain, being emitted within 100 nautical miles of the coast. These emissions negatively affect the public health of coastal communities and cause some areas of the coast to exceed national and state ambient air quality standards. However, ocean‐going vessels are not subject to any state or federal engine requirements intended for emission reductions.

Attachment 2
As a coastal town in Monterey County, Carmel-by-the-Sea is supportive of legislation to reduce pollution from mobile sources,such as cars, trucks and ships. Reducing mobile source emissions will have a beneficial effect on air quality and help to improve public and environmental health along California’s coast, including Monterey and Santa Cruz Counties.

On behalf of the City Council of Carmel-by-the-Sea, we appreciate the opportunity to submit our comments on this important piece of legislation and urge you to support AB 953 when it comes before you for consideration.

Sincerely,
Dave Potter
Mayor

An act to add Section 35618 to the Public Resources Code, relating to coastal resources.
legislative counsel’s digest
AB 953, as amended, Connolly. Coastal resources: voluntary vessel speed reduction and sustainable shipping program.

Existing law establishes the Ocean Protection Council in state government to, among other things, establish policies to coordinate the collection, evaluation, and sharing of scientific data related to coastal and ocean resources among agencies. Existing law requires the council to develop and implement a voluntary sustainable seafood promotion program for the state, to consist of specified components, including a competitive grant and loan program for eligible entities, including, but not limited to, fishery groups and associations, for the purpose of assisting California fisheries in qualifying for certification to internationally accepted standards for sustainable seafood.

This bill would require the council, on or before May 1, 2025, January 1, 2026, in coordination and in consultation with various entities, including the State Air Resources Board, to implement a statewide

96 Attachment 3
voluntary vessel speed reduction and sustainable shipping program for the California coast in order to reduce air pollution, the risk of fatal vessel strikes on whales, and harmful underwater acoustic impacts. The bill would require the program to expand a certain existing program and build upon other existing vessel speed reduction programs and would authorize the program to include specified components, including, upon an appropriation by the Legislature, financial including incentives to program participants based on a percentage of distance traveled by a participating vessel, vessel at a reduced speed, as provided. The bill would require the council, on or before December 31, 2026, to submit a report to the Legislature regarding the implementation of the program.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Brandon Swanson, Community Planning & Building Director APPROVED BY: Chip Rerig, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Urgency Ordinance 2023-004 Regarding Wood Burning Beach Fires on Carmel Beach
RECOMMENDATION:

1. Request the City Attorney to read the title of Urgency Ordinance 2023-004 Regarding Wood Burning Beach Fires on Carmel Beach.

2. Motion to waive further reading and adopt Urgency Ordinance 2023-004 Regarding Wood Burning Beach Fires on Carmel Beach and finding that this Urgency Ordinance is exempt from CEQA.

BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

On November 11, 2022, City Council amended CDP 18-231, which originally authorized the Beach Fire Management Pilot Program, extending the “life” of the Pilot Program until May 15th, 2023. This was done prevent reversion back to section 17.20.200 of the City’s Municipal Code, which allows wood fires to be built in the sand year-round. Council also gave staff direction to begin drafting policy language to make the prohibition on wood burning fires permanent, and to only allow propane devices on Carmel Beach.

On March 8, 2023, staff presented to the City Council a Staff Report for a policy discussion on an early Draft Ordinance Amending Municipal Code Section 17.20.200 E (Recreational Beach Fires on Carmel Beach). Council provided policy feedback and direction to staff to move ahead with a permanent ordinance to allow only user supplied propane fire devices on Carmel Beach. In other words, to ban wood burning fires on the beach. This effort is currently underway.

A copy of the March 8th Staff Report is included as Attachment 1 to this Staff Report. The March 8 report also includes a draft Ordinance Amending Section 17.20.200 E and a description of the contents of that draft Ordinance.

A regular ordinance requires an introduction (first reading) and adoption (second reading) and then the ordinance becomes effective 30 days after the second reading. Ordinances amending Title 17 of the Municipal Code also require a recommendation from the Planning Commission, and ultimately certification by the Coastal Commission.

Since the current Pilot Program is set to expire on May 15th, 2023, staff is requesting the City Council to adopt an Urgency Ordinance (Attachment 2) in order to allow more time for the regular ordinance to be processed and take effect. This Urgency Ordinance will remain in place until the regular ordinance is presented to the City Council and becomes effective following Coastal Commission certification. If the Urgency Ordinance is not adopted, the rules regarding fires on Carmel Beach will revert to section

17.20.200 of the City’s Municipal Code, which allows wood fires to be built in the sand year-round.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Staff time associated with processing the regular ordinance to amend the Municipal Code is captured in the Fiscal Year 2022/2023 City budget
PRIOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION:

The City Council has had extensive discussion on this topic in the past, and gave definitive direction on March 9, 2023. This agenda report and the recommendation contained herein reflect Council direction.

Staff Report

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Brandon Swanson, Director of Community Planning and Building APPROVED BY: Chip Rerig, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Early policy discussion of Draft Ordinance Amending Municipal Code Section 17.20.200 E (Recreational Beach Fires on Carmel Beach)
RECOMMENDATION:

Provide early policy feedback on Draft Ordinance Amending Municipal Code Section 17.20.200 E (Recreational Beach Fires on Carmel Beach) and provide direction to staff.

BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

The Beach Fire Management Pilot Program (‘Pilot Program’) was first adopted on June 30, 2016, through the approval of a Coastal Development Permit (CDP 18-231), in response to issues associated with unrestricted fires on Carmel Beach. The Pilot Program, was intended to provide the City with an opportunity to explore various beach-fire options, with the ultimate goal of making permanent changes to the beach-fire rules through a Local Coastal Program amendment.

From the 2016 to 2022 season, the Pilot Program took several different shapes with various numbers of devices allowed on the beach. This period also included limited use of the beach due to Covid-19 restrictions.

On September 13th, 2022, City Council received a report based on information gathered during the pilot program, and provided direction to staff to draft new regulations regarding fires on Carmel Beach. The Council’s direction was to allow only user-supplied, propane fueled fire devices on the beach, with the burning of wood strictly prohibited. As part of this action, Council also extended the Pilot Program to May 15th, 2023, which keeps regulations in place prohibiting all fires on the beach during this period. If an ordinance is not adopted and certified by May 15th, 2023, Council will need to take some additional temporary measures to control beach fires (e.g.: Urgency Ordinance), or the regulations will revert to the existing Municipal Code which allows an unlimited number of wood fires to be built yearround in the sand.

Council is being asked for early policy level feedback on the draft regulations to prohibit wood burning fires on Carmel Beach, and only allow user-supplied propane devices. Following this direction, staff will begin the adoption hearing process, which includes obtaining a recommendation from the Planning Commission, and returning to Council for two readings of the final draft ordinance before going to the Coastal Commission.

Proposed Ordinance Language
Attachment 1
2 The City of Carmel By-The-Sea Municipal Code Section 17.20.200.E currently allows the burning of wood on Carmel Beach. Through the pilot program, it was noted that burning of wood and other combustible materials:

1. Poses a risk of polluting Carmel Beach and the Carmel Bay State Marine Conservation Area, which is an Area of Special Biological Significance (ASBS) and therefore a State Water Quality Protection Area.

2. Poses a risk of starting a fire given the beach's close proximity to homes and the urban forest of Carmel-by-the-Sea and the potential for embers to be blown back from the beach; and.

3. Creates a potentially hazardous situation for members of the public wishing to access the beach due to the risk of stepping on buried coals or partially burned materials such as pallets, broken glass, aluminum cans and other materials.

The existing language in Section 17.20.200.E of the Municipal Code provides as follows:

E. Recreational Fires on Carmel Beach. All fires on Carmel Beach shall meet the following requirements:

1. Beach fires shall be used for cooking or warmth and shall be located on that part of the City beach property which lies south of an extension of the center line of Tenth Avenue and west of a line reached by the high tide; provided, that all of the following conditions are met:
a. The base of the fire shall be defined as the level at which the lowest burnable material or ash is located, and it shall be on the beach sand unless the fire is in a hibachi, charcoal grill or other like receptacle, in which case the base shall be a horizontal plane touched by the lowest burning material. b. The burnable material used in the fire shall not extend more than two feet above the base of the fire. c. Flames from the fire shall not extend into the air more than five feet from the base of the burnable material in the fire.
d. The longest horizontal straight-line distance through the base of the fire shall not exceed four feet. e. Flammable liquids other than charcoal starter shall not be used in any manner in connection with starting or maintaining the fire.
f. No fire shall be built, lit, or maintained on any slope or within 25 feet of any wall, vegetation or combustible material not intended to be used in the fire. g. All flammable coals, embers or burning material shall be extinguished with sea water by the person or persons building, lighting or maintaining the fire prior to said person or persons leaving the beach. h. The extinguished remains of all fires shall be left exposed and not covered with sand. i. Building, lighting, maintaining or causing or permitting to build light or maintain a fire in violation of any of the above conditions shall be an infraction.
j. Penalties. Any person who shall violate any of the provisions of this chapter that necessitates the response of the Fire Department shall be guilty of an infraction punishable by a fine of not more than $50.00 per hour or portion thereof, not to exceed $500.00.

The Draft Ordinance (Attachment 1) would fully replace Municipal Code Section 17.20.200.E and would read as follows:

Attachment 1
3 E. Recreational Fires on Carmel Beach. Beach fires shall be used for cooking or warmth and shall be located on that part of the City beach property which lies south of an extension of the center line of Tenth Avenue and west of a line reached by the high tide; provided, that all of the following requirements are met:

1. Propane fire devices are the only type of fires which are permitted. No burning of wood or any other substances on the beach is permitted.

2. Propane devices must be supplied by the user.

3. All propane fire devices and propane tanks must be UL listed and in safe working order

4. No materials of any kind shall be placed into or onto the propane devices to be burned

5. These requirements apply every day of the year.

6. The violation of any of the requirements in this Section shall be an infraction or misdemeanor subject to the penalties set forth in Section 1.16.010 of this Code. An infraction shall be punished as follows:
(1). By a fine not exceeding $100.00 for each violation; (2) For a second infraction occurring within one year of a prior infraction which resulted in a conviction, a fine not exceeding $200.00 for each violation; and (3) For a third and any subsequent infraction occurring within one year of two or more infractions which resulted in convictions, a fine not exceeding $500.00 for each violation. Every person convicted of a violation of this code determined to be a misdemeanor shall be punished as follows: (1) by a fine not exceeding $1,000; and/or (2) Imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months.

The Draft Ordinance would make no change to existing Municipal Code Section 17.20.200.D which only regulates the time and location of fires as follows:

D. Location and Time Limits on Beach Fires. No person, firm, corporation or other entity shall build, light, maintain, cause or permit to be built, lighted or maintained any open or outdoor fire on any public beach designated by the City after the hour of 10:00 p.m. No fires shall be permitted at any time on the slopes leading thereto within the City. This prohibition is applicable to all that beach and slope area lying west of Scenic Road and south of Ocean Avenue to the southern City boundary. No fires shall be permitted at any time on all that beach and slope area lying west of San Antonio from Ocean Avenue to the northern City boundary. The prohibition against all fires on all the beach that lies at or below the high tide line shall extend from 10:00 p.m. on the day it commences until 7:00 a.m. the following day.

Staff is requesting early policy level feedback on this draft language before proceeding with the adoption hearing process.

FISCAL IMPACT: Staff time associated with processing this municipal code amendment is captured in the Fiscal Year 2022/2023 City budget

URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA

REGARDING WOOD BURNING FIRES ON CARMEL BEACH

RECITALS
WHEREAS, City Of Carmel By-The-Sea Municipal Code Section 17.20.200.E currently permits the burning of wood at the Carmel Beach; and
WHEREAS, burning of wood and other combustible materials poses a risk of polluting Carmel Beach and the Carmel Bay State Marine Conservation Area, which is an Area of Special Biological Significance (ASBS) and therefore a State Water Quality Protection Area; and WHEREAS, burning of wood and other combustible materials poses a risk of starting a fire given the beach's close proximity to homes and the urban forest of Carmel-by-the-Sea and the potential for embers to be blown back from the beach; and.

WHEREAS, burning of wood and other combustible materials creates a potentially hazardous situation for members of the public wishing to access the beach due to the risk of stepping on buried coals or partially burned materials such as pallets, broken glass, aluminum cans and other materials; and
WHEREAS, the Pilot Program of the City prohibiting burning of wood at the Carmel Beach expires on May 15, 2023; and
WHEREAS, based upon the foregoing, the City Council finds pursuant to Government Code Section 36937 (b) that this Urgency Ordinance is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety to allow the City sufficient time to adopt a regular ordinance to implement the restrictions on recreational fires on Carmel Beach.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Incorporation of Findings. The City Council of the City of Carmel- by- the-Sea incorporates the Recital above by reference as though fully set forth here.

SECTION 2. Codification. This Ordinance shall not be codified in the Carmel-by- the-Sea Municipal Code.

SECTION 3. CEQA/Environmental Findings. The City Council exercises its independent judgment and finds that this Urgency Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, sections:
15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment); 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378); and 15061(b)(3), because the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The proposed Urgency Ordinance maintains the status quo and prevents changes in the environment pending the completion of the contemplated municipal code review.

APPROVED BY: Chip Rerig, City Administrator
SUBJECT:

APP 23-031 (Esperanza Carmel) - Consideration of an Appeal by Esperanza Carmel (APP 23-031), of the Historic Resources Board’s decisions to: 1) List the Northern California Savings and Loan Complex on the Carmel Inventory of Historic Resources and Carmel Register of Historic Resources, and; 2) Issue a Finding of Noncompliance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the relocation of the Northern California Savings and Loan Community Room located at the southeast corner of Dolores Street and 7th Avenue, in the Service Commercial (SC) Zoning District.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council:

1. Adopt Resolution 2023-051 (Attachment 1) denying the appeal by Esperanza Carmel (APP 23-031) and upholding the Historic Resources Board’s decision to list the Northern California Savings and Loan Complex on the Carmel Inventory of Historic Resources and Carmel Register of Historic Resources located at the southeast corner of Dolores Street and 7th Avenue, in the Service Commercial (SC) Zoning District, APNs: 010-145-002, 010-145-023, 010-145-024.

2. Adopt Resolution 2023-052 (Attachment 2) denying the appeal by Esperanza Carmel (APP 23-031) and upholding the Historic Resources Board’s decision to issue a Finding of Noncompliance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the relocation of the Northern California Savings and Loan Complex Community Room from APN 010-145-023 to APN 010-145-002.

BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Esperanza Carmel Commercial LLC has appealed the Historic Resources Board’s (HRB) decisions to list the Northern California Savings and Loan Complex on the Carmel Inventory of Historic Resources and Carmel Register of Historic Resources, as well as the Board’s decision to issue a Finding of Noncompliance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for a project which proposed to relocate the Northern California Savings and Loan Community Room on the site. The Board made both decisions at their January 23, 2023 meeting and adopted Resolutions 2023-01-HRB and 2023-02-HRB unanimously.

BACKGROUND/ PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Northern California Savings and Loan Complex, (the complex has also been referred to as 7th & Dolores, and Palo Alto Savings and Loan Complex –all the same site) consisting of a bank building and detached Community Room building (currently the 7th and Dolores Restaurant), was constructed in 1972 and was designed by noted architects, Walter Burde and William Shaw, both of whom are listed in the City’s Historic Context Statement. While the Northern California Savings and Loan Complex is characteristic of the Bay Region style of architecture, which is described in the Historic Context Statement, and designed by noted architects, the complex was deemed ineligible for listing on the City’s Historic Inventory as well as the National Register in 2019. This determination of Ineligibility for listing as a local resource was issued by the City Council following an appeal of the HRB decision at the time to add the property to the City’s Historic Inventory. This Determination of Ineligibility for listing expired on October 26, 2022 pursuant to City code, because the building turned 50 years old (refer to Attachment 8).

On October 4, 2022, an application, Design Review DR 22-310 (D&K Dolores), was submitted for the proposed relocation of the Community Room from the south side of the original bank building, to the east side. On November 4, 2022, a Completeness Review letter was provided to the applicant which stated the application was incomplete, and listed additional application items required. Included in the Completeness Review letter was direction to the applicant to submit for a Historic Evaluation consistent with CMC

17.32.050.B which states, “No application for property development shall be deemed complete unless it includes a determination that the property is either eligible or ineligible for the Carmel Inventory.” While a previous determination of ineligibility for the Carmel Inventory had been made by City Council, (refer to Attachment 8), pursuant to City code, “Determinations of ineligibility shall be valid for a period of five years from the date of issuance except for properties developed less than 50 years prior to the determination, but more than 45 years prior to the determination, and which are ineligible for the Carmel Inventory primarily due to insufficient age. All such determinations of ineligibility shall be valid only until the building, structure or object reaches the age of 50 years” (CMC 17.32.060.D.4).

As the previous Determination of Ineligibility was issued when the building was less than 50 years old, but greater than 45 (issued at 48 years old), the previous Determination of Ineligibility is no longer valid and the building is required to be re-evaluated for the Carmel Inventory as the property has now reached sufficient age for listing on the inventory.

Notwithstanding the prior decision to not list the building on the local inventory, it was previously determined by three separate qualified professionals (architectural historians) that the site is eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources (CRHR) and the complex, as a whole, is a historic resource for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Whether or not the Complex is listed on the local inventory, the complex is considered a historic resource for the purposes of CEQA and subject to the requirements of the city’s historic preservation ordinance (CMC 17.32) since the Complex has been determined to be eligible for listing on CRHR.

As part of the review of the project, Phase I and Phase II Historic Evaluations were prepared for the site and project. The Phase I evaluation evaluated whether the site is eligible for listing on the local inventory as a historic resource, and the Phase II evaluation evaluated whether the proposed project was consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards. Both evaluations were required pursuant to the city’s historic preservation ordinance, CMC 17.32. Both the Phase I and Phase II evaluations were prepared by PAST Consultants, LLC, one of the city’s retained qualified professionals who provides historic preservation services.

The Phase I Evaluation concluded that the site is eligible for listing on the local inventory and register as a primary historic resource, and is also eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources (refer to Attachment 4). The Phase II Evaluation concluded that the alterations to the site proposed by the applicant would not meet the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and therefore would have an adverse impact to the resource (refer to Attachment 5).

The staff report from the January 23, 2023 Historic Resources Board meeting provides a more detailed analysis for both evaluations (click here for the January 23, 2023 Staff Report). The video of the hearing is also available online (click here for YouTube link, or click here for NovusAgenda video link).

The Historic Resources Board considered both evaluations at their January 23, 2023 meeting and adopted two resolutions (refer to Attachment 6) unanimously:

1. Resolution 2023-01-HRB: A Resolution of the Historic Resources Board of the City of Carmel-bythe-Sea adding a property known as the “Northern California Savings and Loan Complex” located at the southeast corner of Dolores Street and 7th Avenue in the Service Commercial (SC) Zoning District to the Carmel Inventory of Historic Resources and Carmel Register of Historic Resources; APNs: 010-145-002, 010-145-023, 010-145-024

2. Resolution 2023-02-HRB: A Resolution of the Historic Resources Board of the City of Carmel-bythe-Sea issuing a Finding of Noncompliance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the relocation of the Northern California Savings And Loan Complex Community Room from APN 010- 145-023 to APN 010-145-002
Following the HRB hearing, Esperanza Carmel Commercial LLC, (“Appellant”) submitted a timely appeal of the two subject HRB decisions. While a De Novo hearing, this staff report discusses the appeal documents submitted by the appellant as the basis for the appeal (refer to Attachment 3); a detailed analysis of the Phase I and Phase II evaluations can be found in the January 23, 2023 HRB Staff Report.

STAFF ANALYSIS
At the subject hearing, the HRB took two actions:

1. Listing the complex on the Carmel Inventory and Carmel Register of Historic Resources; and,

2. Adopting a finding of Non-Compliance with the Secretary of Interior’s Standards for the proposed relocation of the Community Room.

The appeal filed by the Appellant (Attachment 3) is without merit as it fails to address why either of the actions listed above are incorrect or should be overturned based on factual evidence that was applicable to the decisions made by the HRB at the subject hearing. The appellant’s primary appeal contention focuses on the city’s development process, which is outlined in the municipal code, and not the actual decision made by the HRB. Additionally, neither the appellant, nor a representative of the appellant spoke at or provided written statements for the HRB hearing objecting to the staff recommendation, or the conclusions of the two evaluations.

As the grounds for appeal are without merit and there is no supporting evidence, documentation, of findings to overturn the decisions made by the HRB, staff recommends the City Council deny the appeal.

Notwithstanding this recommendation, staff has provided a response to the appeal documents (refer to Attachment 3).

Appeal Attachment A

1. From Appeal Letter: “The subject property was purchased, on June 25, 2020, on the premise the Northern California Savings and Loan Community Room Annex Building would not be treated as historic.

Prior to purchasing the property, this was supported by the June 17th, 2020 addendum to the phase one evaluation prepared by Meg Clovis” (one of the consultants that provides historic preservation consulting services to the City).

Response: Prior to the purchase of the property, it was communicated to the architect retained by the owner, as well as Esperanza Carmel, via email on May 30, 2020, that the subject property was eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources (CRHR) and is therefore subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and would require analysis by one of the City’s contract historians, Meg Clovis.

On June 18, 2020, an email was sent to the applicant transmitting the final historic report prepared by Meg Clovis (dated June 17, 2020 – Attachment D to the Appeal) . The conclusion of the report stated: “The community room has been evaluated for eligibility for listing in the California Register based on its merits alone and it does not meet the criteria for listing as an individual resource, and the proposed demolition will not have a significant impact on the historic bank building.”
However, in the email transmission from the City, it was made clear that this was only the conclusion of the City’s consultant, and was not an official determination until considered by the Historic Resources Board pursuant to CMC 17.32.160.B, which gives the Historic Resources Board the authority to agree or disagree with the conclusions of a Determination of Consistency (refer to Attachment 9).

Ultimately, the Historic Resources Board did not agree with the conclusions of the evaluation, and chose to adopt a finding of noncompliance (Resolution 2021-03-HRB, refer to Attachment 7) that included findings disagreeing with the conclusions of the evaluation and found the proposal to demolish the Community Room inconsistent with the secretary’s standards.

Conclusion: In summary, it was never represented by the city that the subject site would not be treated as historic. Prior to the purchase of the property, it was conveyed that the site is eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources, and that the property is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act and that any reports would need to be evaluated by the Historic Resources Board. Furthermore, the previous decision by the HRB to disagree with the conclusion of the June 17, 2020 historic report addendum is not applicable to this current appeal.

That decision has already been appealed to the city council who upheld the HRB’s decision and adopted Resolution 2021-043, denying the appeal, and upholding the HRB’s decision.

2. From Appeal Letter: “We were encouraged both on the day of the city council meeting on August 3 2021 then after the meeting to pursue the option of relocating the community room annex building when the option to demolish it was appealed to the City Council and denied.” Response: In review of the video of the August 3rd hearing, staff found no discussion from the city council nor staff regarding relocating the community room. Staff has not encouraged the applicant/owner to relocate the building, but has processed the application consistent with standard city practices when the proposal was submitted.

3. From Appeal Letter: “For the historic assessment the city opted to retain a new historic preservation consultant in-lieu of contracting Meg Clovis who had prepared the previous assessments. Seth Bergstein with PAST Consultants, LLC was hired by the City to prepare the new phase one and two assessments.

Seth Bergstein is the same consultant hired by the City to prepare the update Historic Context Statement, .... We do not believe hiring the same historic preservation consultant that drafted the updated Historic Context Statement for Carmel qualifies as an independent professional opinion on the historical significance of the Community Room Annex Building or whether the proposed relocation is compliant with the Secretary of Interior’s Standards. In fact, this seems to be a conflict of interest.” Response: CMC 17.32.080.C.2, Conflicts of Interests, states, 1) “The qualified professional shall not have performed work under contract to the applicant for a period of one year prior to authorization to proceed with the work effort by the City,” and 2) “Any additional work performed by the qualified professional related to the subject application shall be performed under contract to the City.” Mr.

Bergstein has not performed work under contract to the applicant, and all work performed has been under contract to the City, as outlined in the city’s Historic Preservation Ordinance.

Additionally, staff informed the applicant in November 2022 (prior to the review of the project by Mr.

Bergstein) that the city intended to utilize PAST Consultants for their services. There were no objections to the report or concerns about conflict of interest raised by the applicant at any time prior to the initiation of the contract, after the report was provided to the applicant, or at the hearing.

4. From Appeal Letter: “As you know, we have been unable to progress the JB Pastor Project through the planning process until this issue is addressed and have made no meaningful progress on the project due to the numerous City-imposed delays. Conveniently these, in our opinion inexcusable, delays have now resulted in the Northern California Savings and Loan Bank Building reaching the 5O year milestone of October 26, 2022 and being added to the City’s Historic Context Statement, both of which had previously impeded the Historic Resources Board’s resolve to list this property on the Carmel Inventory and Register.”
Response: The city has not imposed any delays on the project. The applications have been processed consistent with standard city practices as outlined in the municipal code as a result of the development applications submitted by the applicant and the projects the applicant has proposed.

Further, listing the site on the inventory is supported by the municipal code and actionable regardless of the age of the building due to its eligibility for the California Register. As the previous Determination of Ineligibility expired, the building was required to be re-evaluated. This is supported by General Plan Policy P1-93 which states, in part, “….Failure to include a property on the Carmel Inventory shall not preclude a future determination that it qualifies as an historic resource based on new evidence. (LUP)” In the time since the previous Determination of Ineligibility has expired, the complex has turned 50-years old, and the city’s Historic Context Statement has been updated through 1986. The age of the building and the end year of the context statement were the basis for the previous determination of ineligibility being issued. Additionally since the prior determination had expired, the site is required to be re-evaluated prior to the application being deemed complete. Todate, the subject application still has not been deemed complete.

Appeal Letter Attachment B & C
Attachment B and C of the appellant’s appeal documents are the staff report (Attachment B) and Resolution (Attachment C) prepared for the April 19, 2021 Historic Resources Board Meeting. The findings and conclusions of this hearing are not applicable to this appeal as they were not part of the action made by the Historic Resources Board subject to the appeal.

Appeal Letter Attachment D & E
Attachment D is the Phase I Addendum described in “Appeal Attachment A, Section 1,” above. This addendum was prepared prior to the purchase of the subject property by the current property owner.

Attachment E is the Phase II Evaluation that was prepared for the proposed demolition of the community room. Both evaluations were included as an attachment to the staff report referenced in the “Appeal Attachment B & C section”, above. As noted in the above section as well in Section 1, these evaluations are not applicable to the subject appeal as this evaluation was not part of the action by the Historic Resources Board that is subject to the appeal.

Alternatives
Should the council be inclined to grant the appeal for either or both actions, the following should be considered:

1. Listing on the Local Inventory and Register: Should the Council determine the site is ineligible for listing on the local inventory and register, the council would be required to adopt specific findings identifying why the site is ineligible for listing. The findings should also identify the specific basis for the determination to be included in the Determination of Ineligibility. Notwithstanding this determination the site would still be subject to the city’s historic preservation ordinance as the complex is eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources, as noted above.

2. Determination of Consistency: CMC 17.32.160.C states that If an evaluation concludes that a proposed alteration is not consistent with the Secretary’s Standards, the report shall list aspects of the project that are not consistent along with guidance for modifying the project to comply with the Secretary’s Standards.

The Phase II report concludes:
"The project under consideration proposes the relocation of a primary character-defining feature of the building complex’s original design: the spatial relationship between the bank building and the Community Room. To maintain the integrity of the subject historic site and its environment, this report respectfully recommends a new design approach that allows the original Burde/Shaw design and the building complex’s corresponding character-defining features to remain in place."
If the Council disagrees with the conclusions of this evaluation, the Council should direct staff to obtain a second opinion and have a second Phase II Evaluation prepared. Once prepared, staff would then return to the Council for review of the second Phase II Evaluation.

The municipal code does not give the authority for staff, the Historic Resources Board, nor the City Council to make a Determination of Consistency for major alterations on their own. All Determinations of Consistencies for major alterations are required to be prepared by a qualified professional under contract to the city. The Historic Resources Board, or Council on appeal, may disagree with a Determination of Consistency prepared by a qualified professional for a project that was found to be consistent with the Secretary’s Standards (CMC 17.32.160.B.1.b) as was the case when the community room was proposed for demolition (refer to Attachment 7), however, the zoning code states that any Determination of Consistency must be made by a qualified professional then adopted by the Historic Resources Board, or City Council on appeal (CMC 17.32.160.B).

FISCAL IMPACT:

Staff time associated with processing this appeal is accounted for in the FY 2022-23 adopted City Budget.

PRIOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION:

The City Council considered adding the property to the Carmel Historic Inventory in 2006 when the property was 34 years old and determined it was not eligible for listing as a historic resource at that time.

On February 4, 2020, the City Council considered an appeal of the Historic Resources Board’s decision to add the property to the City’s Historic Inventory. Council granted the appeal and made the determination that the property did not qualify for the Carmel Inventory and issued a "Determination of Ineligibility" for the property. This Determination of Ineligibility expired on October 26, 2022.

In 2021, the City Council adopted a Resolution (Reso. 2021-043, refer to Attachment 7) denying the appeal by Christopher Mitchell (APP 21-197) and upholding the Historic Resources Board’s decision to issue a Finding of Noncompliance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the demolition of the Palo Alto Savings and Loan Bank Community Room. While the Determination of Ineligibly described in the paragraph above was still valid, this project was required to be reviewed by the HRB as the complex is eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources, as previously described.

Attachment 1
Resolution No. 2023-051

Findings for Denial of Appeal
No.

1. The appeal filed by the Appellant (included as Attachment XX to the subject staff report) is without merit as it fails to address why the action taken by the Historic Resources Board is incorrect or should be overturned based on factual evidence that was applicable to the decisions made by the HRB at the subject hearing.

2. The city’s historic preservation ordinance (CMC 17.32) outlines the process for establishing eligibility for the Carmel inventory.

The historic preservation ordinance states, “If the property appears to meet the criteria for the inventory, the Department shall order that an intensive survey of the property be conducted. All intensive surveys shall be performed by a qualified professional under contract to the City.”
The city contracted with PAST Consultant, LLC to prepare the intensive survey. The survey concluded the subject property meets the criteria for listing on the local inventory, as outlined in CMC 17.32.040:

A. Should be representative of at least one theme included in the Historic Context Statement.
a. The site is representative of Theme 5: Architectural Development in Carmel in the Context Statement.

B. Shall retain substantial integrity.
a. The site retains all of its original character-defining features and has retained a high degree of integrity.

C. Should be a minimum of 50 years of age and shall meet at least one of the four criteria for listing in the California Register at a national or Statewide level of significance or at a regional or local level of significance per CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(a)(3)
a. The site is 50 years old and meets Criteria 3 of the California Register as an intact Bay Region Modern style complex (style listed in the Historic Context Statement) designed by prominent local architects Walter Burde & Associates and Will Shaw & Associates (both architects noted in Historic Context Statement) (Criteria 3 qualifiers #1 & 3).

3. The intensive survey (described in Finding #2) also found the site to be eligible for listing in the California Register of Historic Resources (CRHR). Properties eligible for the CRHR are historic resources, as defined, in the city’s historic preservation ordinance, as well as considered historic resources for the purpose of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

4. While a previous determination of ineligibility had been issued for the site, which has since expired, General Plan Policy P1-93 states, in part, “….Failure to include a Attachment 1
Resolution No. 2023-051

property on the Carmel Inventory shall not preclude a future determination that it qualifies as an historic resource based on new evidence. (LUP)” In the time since the previous Determination of Ineligibility has expired, the complex has turned 50-years old, and the city’s Historic Context Statement has been updated through 1986.

5. On August 3, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution 2021-043 that included the following findings:
 The City’s Historic Context Statement identifies the Bay Region style and/or Second Bay Region Style as important substyle within the larger theme of Modern architecture -the building is "representative of at least one theme" in the existing Historic Context Statement.
 Pertinent testimony from a number of respected architects who opined that the former Palo Alto Savings and Loan Bank was an exceptional example of its architectural style, the work of master architects, retained a high level of integrity and embodied the distinctive characteristics of its type and period.

Their professional opinions confirmed that sufficient time had elapsed since the construction of the Bank complex to allow for a scholarly perspective on its significance and its place in Carmel’s architectural history.  The Community Room is not required to become significant in its own right.

There are no historic preservation rules that would force it to stand on its individual merit in order to qualify for historic status. The Community Room remains a vital part of the architects’ original design. While it is subordinate to the former Bank building, it continues to have an important spatial relationship to it.
 The Bank building and the Community Room are a historically related unit.

Though the room is subordinate to the Bank, it has retained its historic integrity and is an integral component of the original design as approved by the architects’ client, the owners of the Palo Alto Savings and Loan Bank.  In the case of the Community Room, despite being an auxiliary use it was still part of the original concept of the building from the beginning.  The Bank complex is eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).  Both buildings are the work of two master architects, Walter Burde and Will Shaw, who are listed in the Carmel Historic Context Statement, whose office was located in downtown Carmel, and whose other individual works include the Christian Science Church in Carmel, the original Monterey Airport Terminal and Tower, the Custom House renovation in Monterey and the Highlands Inn reconstruction. Shaw also collaborated with renowned photographer, Ansel Adams, to create the Foundation for Environmental Design, a group that supported worthy projects that blended into the natural environment.  The community room section of the building was designed right along with the rest of the building and contains all the character defining features of the main bank building: shed roof and copper roofing, angular forms and irregular Attachment 1
Resolution No. 2023-051

massing, plate glass window walls, traditional materials used within a Modern architecture vocabulary, Integration of the building with its setting, Integration of the outdoors with interior spaces, Redwood siding and beams.  The structural connection in the design of this building was very intentional and strong, and is all part of one piece of significant architecture—one historic resource.

CITY COUNCIL
RESOLUTION NO. 2023-052

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA DENYING THE APPEAL BY ESPERANZA CARMEL COMMERCIAL LLC (APP 23-031) AND UPHOLDING THE HISTORIC RESOURCES BOARD’S DECISION TO ISSUE A FINDING OF NONCOMPLIANCE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR’S STANDARDS FOR THE RELOCATION OF THE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA SAVINGS AND LOAN COMPLEX COMMUNITY ROOM FROM APN 010-145-023 TO APN 010-145-002.

WHEREAS, the subject site is known as the Northern California Savings and Loan Complex (“Complex”); and
WHEREAS, the Complex consists of Lots 2, 4, 6, and 8 located on Block 91 and is currently comprised of Assessor Parcel Numbers (APNs: 010-145-002, 010-145-023, 010-145-024); and WHEREAS, APN 010-145-002 is comprised of lots 2 & 4 and is owned by D&K Dolores, LLC (“D&K Dolores”). APN 010-145-023 and 010-145-024 are comprised of lot 6 and 8, respectively.

Both lots 6 & 8 are owned by Esperanza Carmel Commercial LLC (“Esperanza Carmel”); and WHEREAS, International Design Group (IDG), (“Applicant”) submitted an application (DR 22-157) on behalf of Esperanza Carmel on May 24, 2022, requesting the construction of a mixeduse building located on Lots 6, 8, and 10 of Block 91; and WHEREAS, the Applicant submitted a second application (DR 22-310) on October 3, 2022, on behalf of D&K Dolores for the relocation of the Community Room to Lot 4 from Lot 6 of Block 91, associated with the proposed improvements shown as part of the application, DR 22-157; and
WHEREAS, an intensive survey of the Complex dated December 2022, prepared by PAST Consultants, concluded that the Complex is eligible for listing on the Carmel Inventory of Historic Resources as the property is representative of the theme of Architectural Development in the Context Statement; retains all of its original character-defining features and has retained a high degree of integrity; is greater than 50 years old; and, meets the requirements of Criteria 3 for listing; and
WHEREAS, the survey concluded further that the subject property is eligible for listing in the Carmel Inventory because it is eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources (CRHR) under Criteria #3, Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region or method of construction or represents the work of a master or possesses high artistic values for its intact Bay Region Modern-stylistic elements designed by prominent local architects Walter Burde & Associates and Will Shaw & Associates, in addition to meeting the criteria for listing on the local inventory as outlined in CMC 17.32.040; and Attachment 2
Resolution No. 2023-052

WHEREAS, on January 23, 2023, the Historic Resources Board adopted Resolution 2023- 001-HRB, listing the Complex on the Carmel Inventory of Historic Resources and Carmel Register of Historic Resources; and
WHEREAS, notwithstanding the adoption of Resolution 2023-001-HRB, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), sites determined to be eligible for listing on the CRHR are a historic resource for the purpose of CEQA and therefore subject to the requirements of the city’s historic preservation ordinance (CMC 17.32); and WHEREAS, the proposed relocation of the Community Room constitutes a major alteration to a historic resource; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to CMC 17.32.160.B, determinations of consistency for major alterations shall be prepared by a qualified professional and shall be supported by written documentation that (1) identifies which of the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation are applicable to the project, (2) reviews the proposed project, and (3) explains the basis of the determination. If an evaluation concludes that a proposed alteration is not consistent with the Secretary’s Standards, the report shall list aspects of the project that are not consistent, along with guidance for modifying the project to comply with the Secretary’s Standards; and
WHEREAS, the City retained the services of PAST Consultants (“PAST”), a contracted qualified professional, to prepare a Phase II Evaluation (“Phase II”) to determine whether the proposed relocation of the Community Room is consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards; and
WHEREAS, PAST evaluated the project for consistency with the Secretary of the Interior's Ten Standards for Rehabilitation in a Phase II dated January 12, 2023. PAST found that Standards #1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, and 10 are applicable to the project. The evaluation concluded that the project, as proposed, is not consistent with Standards #2, 5, 9, and 10 and therefore is not consistent with the Secretary’s Standards; and
WHEREAS, the Phase II recommends as part of the conclusion: The project under consideration proposes the relocation of a primary character-defining feature of the building complex’s original design: the spatial relationship between the bank building and the Community Room. To maintain the integrity of the subject historic site and its environment, this report respectfully recommends a new design approach that allows the original Burde/Shaw design and the building complex’s corresponding character-defining features to remain in place; and WHEREAS, on January 23, 2023, the Historic Resources Board held a public hearing to receive public testimony regarding the Application, including without limitation, information provided to the Historic Resources Board by City staff and public testimony on the project in accordance with CMC 17.58.040.B; and
Attachment 2
Resolution No. 2023-052

WHEREAS, on January 23, 2023, the Historic Resources Board adopted Resolution 2023- 02-HRB, issuing a Finding of Noncompliance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the relocation of the Northern California Savings and Loan Complex Community Room; and WHEREAS, on February 6, 2023, a timely appeal (APP 23-031) of the decision to adopt a finding of non-compliance by Esperanza Carmel; and
WHEREAS, on April 21, 2023, notice of the public hearing was published in compliance with State law (California Government Code 65090) indicating the date and time of the public hearing; and
WHEREAS, on May 2, 2023, the City Council held a duly noticed de novo public hearing to receive public testimony regarding the appeal, including without limitation, information provided to the City Council by City staff and through public testimony on the proposed project; and WHEREAS, this Resolution and its findings are made based upon evidence presented to the Council at the May 2, 2023 hearing including, without limitation, the staff report and attachments submitted by the Community Planning and Building Department; and WHEREAS, the City Council did hear and consider all said reports, attachments, recommendations and testimony herein above set forth and used their independent judgement to evaluate the project; and
WHEREAS, the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., "CEQA"), together with State Guidelines (14 California Code Regulations §§ 15000, et seq., the "CEQA Guidelines") and City Environmental Regulations (CMC 17.60) require the review of certain projects for environmental impacts and preparation of environmental documents; and WHEREAS, the listing of the subject property on the Carmel Inventory is “not a project” pursuant to section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines. Adopting a Finding of Noncompliance does not grant any permits or entitlements approving a project that would result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment. However, CEQA requires environmental review for alterations to historic resources that are not consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards. Consistent with CMC

17.32.160.C and CEQA, if the applicant does not choose to modify the project to comply with the Secretary’s Standards, the Department shall require preparation of environmental review documents to further analyze and mitigate any impacts to the historic resource. These CEQA documents would be required prior to issuance of any discretionary permits for the project, and could include up to an Environmental Impact Report (EIR); and
WHEREAS, the facts set forth in the recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea does hereby DENY the appeal by Esperanza Carmel (APP 23-031) and uphold the Historic Resources Board’s decision to issue a Finding of Noncompliance with the Secretary of the Attachment 2
Resolution No. 2023-052

Interior’s Standards for the relocation of the Northern California Savings and Loan Complex Community Room, as found in Historic Resources Board Resolution: Resolution 2023-02-HRB adopted on January 23, 2023.

Findings for Denial of Appeal
No.

1. The appeal filed by the Appellant (included as Attachment XX to the subject staff report) is without merit as it fails to address why the action taken by the Historic Resources Board is incorrect or should be overturned based on factual evidence that was applicable to the decisions made by the HRB at the subject hearing.

2. The subject site is determined to be a historic resource. Historic resources are subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Generally, under CEQA, a project that follows the Standards for Rehabilitation contained within The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties is considered to have mitigated impacts to a historical resource to a less-than-significant level (CEQA Guidelines §15064.5)

3. The city’s historic preservation ordinance (CMC 17.32) outlines the process for determining project consistency with the secretary’s standards.

Determinations of consistency for major alterations shall be prepared by a qualified professional and shall be supported by written documentation that (1) identifies which of the Secretary’s Standards are applicable to the project, (2) reviews the proposed project, and (3) explains the basis of the determination (CMC 17.32.160.B).

The city contracted with PAST Consultant, LLC to prepare the Phase II Evaluation for the associated project. The evaluation concluded the subject project as proposed is not consistent with Standards #2, 5, 9, and 10, and therefore is not consistent with the Secretary’s Standards.

As outlined in CMC 17.32.160.C.1, an evaluation that concludes that a project is not consistent with the Secretary’s Standards shall constitute evidence of substantial adverse impact to an historic resource.

4. On August 3, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution 2021-043 that included the following findings:
 The Bank building and the Community Room are a historically related unit.

Though the room is subordinate to the Bank, it has retained its historic integrity and is an integral component of the original design as approved by the architects’ client, the owners of the Palo Alto Savings and Loan Bank.  The Bank complex is eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Attachment 2
Resolution No. 2023-052

 In the case of the Community Room, despite being an auxiliary use it was still part of the original concept of the building from the beginning.  A new construction project on the site of a demolished Community Room would constitute an adverse effect on the Bank complex and destroy the original concept as designed by two of Monterey County’s most respected master architects.
 The community room section of the building was designed right along with the rest of the building and contains all the character defining features of the main bank building: shed roof and copper roofing, angular forms and irregular massing, plate glass window walls, traditional materials used within a Modern architecture vocabulary, Integration of the building with its setting, Integration of the outdoors with interior spaces, Redwood siding and beams.  The structural connection in the design of this building was very intentional and strong, and is all part of one piece of significant architecture—one historic resource.
 By removing the community room the south elevation of the resource is completely changed and is not the intended design from the public right-ofway on the south side.

Re: Phase One Historic Assessment, SE Corner Dolores St. and 7th Ave., Carmel-by-the-Sea APN. 010-145-022/023/024
Dear Mr. Kort:

This letter presents the results of our historic assessment of the property located at the SE Corner of Dolores Street and 7th Avenue, in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. PAST Consultants, LLC (PAST) completed the site visit, conditions assessment, historic research and report preparation during December 2022. The attached DPR523 forms provide the formal assessment of the subject property and conclusions of historic significance.

The subject property encompasses Block 91, Lots 2,4,6 and 8. The lots contain the following:
• Lot 2, APN 010-145-022: Contains northern portions of the bank building and east portions of the parking lot.
• Lot 4, APN 010-145-022: Contains southern portions of the bank building and east portions of the parking lot.
• Lot 6, APN 010-145-023: Contains the southern edge of the bank building, the Community Room, the elevated walkway connecting the bank building with the Community Room, and east portions of the parking lot.
• Lot 8, APN 010-145-024: Contains the south portions of the parking lot.

The bank building, Community Room and associated parking lot contain the Northern California Savings and Loan Bank Complex (formerly the Palo Alto Savings and Loan) designed and executed by the prominent regional architectural team of Walter Burde & Associates/Will Shaw and Associates in 1972. The site contains a bank building and detached Community Room – the complex being an intact and outstanding example of the Bay Region Modern style in downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea.

Evan Kort, Associate Planner, Carmel-by-the-Sea Page 2
SW Corner Dolores St. and 7th Ave., Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA: Phase One Historic Assessment January 3, 2023 The buildings’ significant Modernist design has been featured in various architectural exhibits and/or journals, including:
• Architecture of the Monterey Peninsula, a book/exhibit at the Monterey Peninsula of Art, 1976;
• Documentation and Conservation of the Modern Movement – Monterey: A tour of the Monterey Region’s iconic Modernist buildings conducted by DOCOMOMO, 2003; • Carmel, A History in Architecture, Kent Seavey, 2007; and • Carmel Modernism: A museum exhibit by the Monterey Area Architectural Resources Archive (MAARA) held at the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts, Carmel, 2016.

In 2006, State of California Historic Preservation Officer Milfred Wayne Donaldson, FAIA, wrote a letter to Carmel Mayor Sue McCloud and the Carmel City Council advocating for the building. His letter states:

The former Palo Alto Savings Building, designed by noted architect Walter Burde at the southeast corner of Dolores and Seventh in Carmel, represents an important period in the City of Carmel’s and the State of California’s architectural heritage. The sixties and seventies formed a period when many financial institutions hired prominent architects to design buildings intended as iconic architectural statements. The Palo Alto Savings Building was one of only two such buildings to be built in the City of Carmel by the Sea; the second, designed by Olaf Dahlstrand and built in the sixties, was the Wells Fargo Building on San Carlos Street (Letter from Milford Wayne Donaldson, FAIA, State Historic Preservation Officer to Mayor Sue McCloud, April 28, 2006, Carmel Planning Department Files).

The subject bank complex is in largely unaltered condition and possesses all seven aspects of historic integrity. Our historic assessment concludes that the subject property is eligible under the California Register of Historical Resources under Criterion 3 in the area of architecture and eligible for listing on the Carmel-by-the-Sea Historic Resources Inventory (HRI) supporting the theme, “Architectural Development in Carmel.” Please see the attached DPR523 forms for detailed property description, list of character defining features and evaluation of historic significance.

Please contact me if you have any questions about this evaluation.

Sincerely,

The present bank building complex replaced the first Palo Alto Savings and Loan building constructed on the same lot, as shown on the 1962 Sanborn map (Figure 9).

Figure 9. 1962 Sanborn map, showing the previous bank on the subject property (arrow).

The Carmel Pine Cone covered the demolition of the building and construction of the present bank complex consistently beginning in November of 1971, when the plans for the Burde/Shaw complex were presented formerly to the Planning Commission. The Carmel Pine Cone noted the demolition of the former and aesthetically unpopular bank building in March of 1972, stating, “Hard to believe anyone could be nostalgic about a hulking building, which back in 1957, created rage and outcry among the Carmel citizenry.” (“Notes on the Yellow Brick Wall,” Carmel Pine Cone, 3/23/1972, p.4) Disdainful comments about the former structure’s boxy appearance, clad with yellow clay tile and often compared to a shower stall, were common as the former building’s appearance was not popular, particularly given its prominent location on Dolores Street and 7th Avenue.

Carmel would receive one of its more significant Modernist buildings shortly thereafter. Designed by the local architectural team of Walter Burde and Will Shaw, a partnership that contributed numerous buildings in the region, the duo envisioned a commercial example of the Second Bay Region style, one that embraced the surrounding street views of the Carmel landscape; and designed two-building complex – a bank building and detached Community Room – with soaring vertical spaces, wide expanses of glass and an elevated walkway connecting the bank to the Community Room. Charles Lent, Jr., the bank’s new manager noted:
“Heavy beams, 24 new trees in a landscaping package, much more Carmelish style, that will fit in with what is already here.” (“Notes on the Yellow Brick Wall,” Carmel Pine Cone, 3/23/1972, p.4).

Copies of original plans in the Carmel-by-the-Sea Planning Department files include a site plan and colored renderings of the elevations (see Figures 1 and 2). The Dolores Street elevation shows the building set within the numerous trees designed for the surrounding landscape. Copies of circa-1970s photographs of the building show the building was painted with a much more active color palette than seen today. Walter Burde’s design included the painting of the roof beams a bright orange color, an homage to Burde’s ongoing interest in Japanese design. Other aspects of Japanese design include the detached Community Room building, whose shed-roofed massing integrates seamlessly with the larger bank building. The Community Room serves as a Japanese pavilion, a detached public space that connects to the bank building via an elevated walkway, a feature that allows patrons to take in views of the Carmel streetscape.

Construction of the bank complex was completed in September 1972. A photograph of the Community Room under construction appeared in the Carmel Pine Cone on August 10, 1972. The caption states: “The Community Room is a daytime reading room, with free coffee, cookies, magazines and The Wall St. Journal provided. The room will be available in the evening for the use of groups in the community, without charge (Carmel Pine Cone, 8/10/1972, p.30). The caption also notes the contributions of the architects, Walter Burde & Associates the primary designer; and Will Shaw & Associates, design and execution of the bank complex.

Walter Burde and Will Shaw, Architects
Walter Burde (FAIA) graduated from the Miami University (Ohio) School of Architecture in 1934 and began his career locally designing hospitals and residences in the Toledo, Ohio area. Following World War II, he began his private practice in 1950, as chief designer for Robert Jones, AIA, aiding design in the award winning Monterey Airport. Walter Burde has won numerous architectural awards, including the American Institute of Architects (AIA) National Honor Award (1969), the Governor’s Design Award (1966), the Monterey Bay Chapter Awards of Merit (1959 and 1976), and became a Fellow at the American Institute of Architects in 1987. His work has been published in numerous architectural journals. Walter Burde was active in the local community and held every office in the Monterey Bay Chapter of the AIA, receiving the Robert Stanton, FAIA award in recognition of his outstanding service. He designed numerous commercial, civic and residential buildings in the region and collaborated with fellow architect Will Shaw under the firm name Burde Shaw Associates.

Born in Los Angeles in 1924, William Vaughn Shaw (FAIA) received his Bachelor of Architecture at the University of California, Berkeley in 1950. Shortly thereafter, he moved to Carmel, where he established his own firm. Will Shaw was admitted to the American Institute of Architects in 1957, served as president of the local Monterey Chapter in 1964 and was awarded his fellowship to the AIA in 1984. Will Shaw was active in local community development and served in various civic capacities. In 1978 Will Shaw, along with Ansel Adams and Fred Farr, founded the Big Sur Foundation, dedicated to the preservation of the Big Sur coastal environment.

Walter Burde joined Will Shaw’s practice in Carmel, California in 1953 when the latter renamed the firm Burde, Shaw and Kearns, Associates (later Burde Shaw Associates). The partners developed a symbiotic partnership, with Walter Burde reportedly being the more artistic of the two partners and Will Shaw the pragmatist. The firm designed numerous successful and significant commercial, civic and residential projects in the greater Monterey Peninsula area. In Carmel, significant commercial buildings include the Palo Alto-Salinas Savings and Loan Association building (the building’s original name) on the corner of Dolores Street and Seventh Avenue (1972); and the Shell Oil Gas Station on the corner of San Carlos Street and Fourth Avenue (1963). The latter project received a Governor’s Design Award in 1966 for its outstanding design. In 1969, the partners split the two firm offices, with Walter Burde retaining the Carmel office; and Will Shaw retaining the Monterey office. However, the two continued to collaborate both professionally and in their various civic endeavors (Grimes, Teresa, Leslie Heumann, Architectural Resources Group, PAST Consultants, LLC, Historic Context Statement Carmel-by-the-Sea, 1994, 1997, 1998, 2022, p.116).

Historic Integrity
With the exception of entrance-door modifications and selective window glazing replacement, the exterior of the bank complex is essentially intact, with no square footage additions to the original footprints of both the bank building and the Community Room. Interior alterations in 1978, 2013 and 2018 have removed the original bank infrastructure and finishes. The following is the historic integrity assessment:

1. Location. The bank complex is in its original location and maintains integrity of location.

2. Design. The bank complex maintains integrity of design with the presence of all of its exterior characterdefining features.

3. Setting. The setting within the shopping district of downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea remains intact.

4. Workmanship. Integrity of workmanship is retained and highlighted by the dramatic expression of structural elements, the exterior wall cladding and the wide expanses of glass of the bank building and Community Room.

5. Materials. Original materials of steel, glass, wood structural elements and wood wall cladding remain on the building, giving it integrity of materials.

6. Feeling. The building complex maintains integrity of feeling as a commercial building complex designed in the Bay Region Modern style, as reflected by its intact design elements and retention of character defining features.

7. Association. The building complex maintains integrity of association as a commercial building complex designed in the Bay Region Modern style, as reflected by its intact design elements and retention of character defining features

Northern California Savings & Loan, Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA: Phase Two Historic Assessment January 12, 2023 Evaluation of Proposed Alterations
The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards
The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties (Standards) provides the framework for evaluating the impacts of additions and alterations to historic buildings.

The Standards describe four treatment approaches: preservation, rehabilitation, restoration and reconstruction. The Standards require that the treatment approach be determined first, as a different set of standards apply to each approach. For the proposed project, the treatment approach is rehabilitation. The Standards describe rehabilitation as:

In Rehabilitation, historic building materials and character-defining features are protected and maintained as they are in the treatment Preservation; however, an assumption is made prior to work that existing historic fabric has become damaged or deteriorated over time and, as a result, more repair and replacement will be required. Thus, latitude is given in the Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitation to replace extensively deteriorated, damaged, or missing features using either traditional or substitute materials. Of the four treatments, only Rehabilitation includes an opportunity to make possible an efficient contemporary use through alterations and additions.2
The ten Standards for rehabilitation are:

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

2. The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided.

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.

4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved.

5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved.

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.

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.

8. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken.

Attachment 5
Evan Kort, Associate Planner, Carmel-by-the-Sea Page 6
Northern California Savings & Loan, Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA: Phase Two Historic Assessment January 12, 2023

9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated 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.

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.

Evaluation of Proposed Alterations
The proposed building alterations include demolition/removal of the covered walkway, disassembly of the Community Room and reconstruction of the Community Room to the east of the bank.

The following lists the ten Standards for rehabilitation in italics, with an evaluation given below each Standard.

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

Although the subject property has changed from a commercial bank to a commercial restaurant use, the subject building’s current use has required minimal changes to its distinctive exterior materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships in keeping with this Standard.

2. The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided.

The original spatial relationship between the bank building and the Community Room is a primary character-defining feature of the site. The bank building and the Community Room were designed as an integrated unit, carefully sited to place the Community Room in a prominent position facing Dolores Street. The proposed project to relocate the Community Room removes this vital and original spatial relationship.

The Community Room was a programmatic requirement specifically requested by the bank officials who tasked the architects to design a separate building away from the bank’s regular operations to serve as a meeting space for the local community. This feature was considered a critical element of the bank complex’s design as it was intended to foster greater connection with the bank and the surrounding community, thereby improving public relations and increasing the bank’s community exposure. The Burde/Shaw design team’s solution was to separate the two buildings, yet design the Community Room with the same character-defining features as the bank, including a dramatic shedroofed volume clad with copper sheets, Redwood siding boards that match the bank building and the use of large plate-glass window walls, to integrate the Community Room within its environment.

When viewed from the south on Dolores Street, the Community Room’s massing and placement within the site present a south elevation that integrates the Community Room within the complex’s Attachment 5
Evan Kort, Associate Planner, Carmel-by-the-Sea Page 7
Northern California Savings & Loan, Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA: Phase Two Historic Assessment January 12, 2023 overall design, allowing the two building masses to appear as if they were composed as a single building. Relocating the Community Room from its original location would substantially alter the south elevation of the building complex as it appears today.

The Community Room uses the same character defining elements, materials and construction details of the bank building and maintains all seven aspects of historic integrity, including integrity of its original location south of the bank building, and linked by the elevated walkway.

In addition, the proposed Community Room’s relocation removes another important characterdefining feature: the elevated walkway connecting the bank building to the Community Room.

For these reasons, the proposed project is not in conformance with this 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.

The proposed alterations do not add conjectural features or elements from other historic properties that would confuse the remaining character-defining features of the subject property. The project is consistent with this Standard.

4. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved.

This Standard does not apply because no changes to the property have acquired historic significance.

5. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved.

The proposed relocation of the Community Room removes a primary character-defining feature of the original Burde/Shaw design concept: the spatial relationship between the bank building and the Community Room. In addition, the proposed project will remove the elevated walkway, which is another distinctive character-defining feature of the building complex’s design. The proposed project is not in conformance with this 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.

In areas of the bank building and Community Room exterior walls where the elevated walkway is proposed to be removed, the proposed project will match in-kind the exterior finishes and materials of both buildings, in keeping with this 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.

Attachment 5
Evan Kort, Associate Planner, Carmel-by-the-Sea Page 8
Northern California Savings & Loan, Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA: Phase Two Historic Assessment January 12, 2023 It is presumed that physical treatments to repair the existing historic materials of the Community Room would be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. However, this Standard would only apply if relocation of the Community Room is considered acceptable, which it is not.

8. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken.

This Standard does not apply, as archaeological features are not identified at the site.

9. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated 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.

The proposed relocation of the Community Room removes the original spatial relationship between the bank building and the Community Room, a primary character-defining feature of the site.

In addition, the proposed relocation of the Community Room destroys the historic materials of the covered walkway, removes the original landscape walls and raised pavement areas surrounding the Community Room and alters the original Burde/Shaw design concept by relocating the Community Room elsewhere on the site. The proposed project is not in conformance with this Standard, particularly due to the removal of critical spatial relationships that characterize the property.

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.

The relocation of the Community Room will likely not be reversible, as the intent of the relocation is to develop the lots immediately south of the bank building. In addition, relocation of the Community Room will destroy the integrity of setting of the historic resource. The proposed project is not in conformance with this Standard.

Recommendations for Proposed Project Conformance
According to Carmel-by-the-Sea Municipal Code Chapter 17.32.160/C:

C. If an evaluation concludes that a proposed alteration is not consistent with the Secretary’s Standards, the report shall list aspects of the project that are not consistent along with guidance for modifying the project to comply with the Secretary’s Standards.

The project under consideration proposes the relocation of a primary character-defining feature of the building complex’s original design: the spatial relationship between the bank building and the Community Room. To maintain the integrity of the subject historic site and its environment, this report respectfully recommends a new design approach that allows the original Burde/Shaw design and the building complex’s corresponding character-defining features to remain in place.

Attachment 7
Resolution No. 2021-043

Findings for Denial of Appeal
No.

1. The purposes of historic preservation and the city's historic preservation ordinance is · to preserve the best pieces of the historic development of a place/city through its significant architecture to preserve these buildings which represent important periods in a City's heritage. The Palo Alto Savings and Loan building can be considered one of the most exceptional and significant buildings to be constructed in the commercial district of Carmel durina the entire decade of the 1970's.

2. The City's Historic Context Statement identifies the Bay Region style and/or Second Bay Region Style as important substyle within the larger theme of Modern architecture -the building is "representative of at least one theme" in the existing Historic Context Statement.

3. The building is acknowledged as exceptionally significant and is 49 years old. In less than one year, it will only need to be of normal significance for inclusion on the inventorv.

4. Together, the bank building and community room creates a spatial relationships on the property which are in themselves character defining, uses the same character defining elements of construction and detail, are built at the same time, designed and built bv the same master architects.

5. Pertinent testimony from a number of respected architects who opined that the former Palo Alto Savings and Loan Bank was an exceptional example of its architectural style, the work of master architects, retained a high level of integrity and embodied the distinctive characteristics of its type and period. Their professional opinions confirmed that sufficient time had elapsed since the construction of the Bank complex to allow for a scholarly perspective on its significance and its place in Carmel's architectural historv.

6. Following the Bank president's mandate, bank staff in each city where a branch was to be located, were directed to become more involved in local improvement projects and to provide meeting space for the community as part of the Bank's public relations strategy. Burde and Shaw, the architects of the Bank complex, were tasked to design a small building separated from the Bank that would be used for this express purpose.

The view contained in the Phase II Report for this project that the Community Room was simnlv "a oostscrint to the architects' intentions" is false.

7. The Community Room is not required to become significant in its own right. There are no historic preservation rules that would force it to stand on its individual merit in order to qualify for historic status. The Community Room remains a vital part of the architects' original design. While it is subordinate to the former Bank building, it continues to have an imoortant soatial relationshio to it.

8. The Bank building and the Community Room are a historically related unit. Though the room is subordinate to the Bank, it has retained its historic integrity and is an integral component of the original design as approved by the architects' client, the owners of the Palo Alto Savings and Loan Bank.

9. In the case of the Community Room, despite being an auxiliary use it was still part of the original concept of the building from the beginning.

10. Simply because an element of a building is smaller or "subordinate" to other parts does not make them less important to the whole as a piece of architecture.

Attachment 7
Resolution No. 2021-043

11. The Bank complex is eligible for listing on the California Register of Historic Resources for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

12. Both buildings are the work of two master architects, Walter Burde and Will Shaw, who are listed in the Carmel Historic Context Statement, whose office was located in downtown Carmel, and whose other individual works include the Christian Science Church in Carmel, the original Monterey Airport Terminal and Tower, the Custom House renovation in Monterey and the Highlands Inn reconstruction. Shaw also collaborated with renowned photographer, Ansel Adams, to create the Foundation for Environmental Design, a group that supported worthy projects that blended into the natural environment.

13. A new construction project on the site of a demolished Community Room would constitute an adverse effect on the Bank complex and destroy the original concept as designed by two of Monterey County's most respected master architects.

14. The community room section of the building was designed right along with the rest of the building and contains all the character defining features of the main bank building:
shed roof and copper roofing, angular forms and irregular massing, plate glass window walls, traditional materials used within a Modern architecture vocabulary, Integration of the building with its setting, Integration of the outdoors with interior spaces, Redwood sidina and beams.

15. The community room was constructed at the same time by the same builder. It's materials, detailing, composition are all at the same level of quality as the main bank building.

16. The Community Room element of the building adds to the complexity and richness of the overall resource which, if taken away, would significantly negatively impact the quality of architecture of the bank buildina.

17. The structural connection in the design of this building was very intentional and strong, and is all part of one piece of significant architecture-one historic resource.

18. By removing the community room the south elevation of the resource is completely changed and is not the intended design from the public right-of-way on the south side.
