Area Goleta
Period of Significance1918 Property Type: Single family property Applicable Criteria Local Criterion 2(a); Local Criterion 2(c) 5728 Aguila Avenue was constructed in 1918 as a Craftsman style single‐family residence. The property appears eligible for designation as a City of Goleta Landmark under local Criteria 2(a) and 2(c).
Criterion 2(a)
5728 Aguila Avenue appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as a rare remnant example of Goleta's early residential development in the original residential neighborhood that developed adjacent to the commercial corridor between the two towns of La Goleta and La Patera. The reside
nce predates by 10 years the subdivision and subsequent widespread devel opment of the neighborhood that surrounds it, and is an increasingly rare example of early 20th century residential development in this area of Goleta. The early 20th century was a significant era in Goleta’s development, laying the groundwork for future growth.
As the Goleta Valley shifted from cattle ranches to individual farmsteads, new farmers required goods and services. To serve their needs, two towns grew up along the County Road (present‐day Hollister Avenue). Early residential development through the first decades of the 20th century was largely localized around the historic town of La Patera, northeast of the intersection of Fairview and Hollister Avenues. in 1927, Santa Barbara real estate agent Robert E. Smith and Goleta landowner Frank Dow laid out a tract north of Hollister Avenue, extending from Fairview Avenue to Nectarine Ave
nue, with three north/south streets (Orange, Magnolia, and Nectarine, matching the names of those streets laid out south of Hollister in 1887) and one east/ west street (Mandarin). The same year, the
adjacent property to the east was platted, with one north/south street (Tecolote) and three east/west streets (Gato, Aguila, and Armitos). The owners were listed as the Los Angeles First National Trust & Savings Bank, Margaret O’Brien, and Katie Kelley. Residences constructed in this subdivision during this period we
re scattered. Those that remain are characterized by simple, rectangular, one‐ and two‐story massing, wood clapboard or textured cement plaster exterior wall cladding,
and gabled roofs.
Criterion 2(c)
5728
Aguila Avenue also appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(c) as a rare local example of a Craftsman bungalow. There are relatively few intact examples of Craftsman style residential architecture in Goleta from this period. The residence exhibits quality of design and distinctive features including the wood clapboard siding;
projecting partial‐width front porch with square columns; and wood sash double‐hung windows with wide, plain surrounds.

Significance Statement (continued):
The Craftsman bungalow dates from the early 1900s through the 1920s. Craftsman bungalows generally have rectangular or irregular plans, and are one to one‐and‐a‐half stories tall. They have wood clapboard or shingle exteriors and a pronounced horizontal emphasis, with broad front porches, often composed with stone, clinker brick, or plastered porch piers. Other character‐defining features include low‐pitched front‐facing gable roofs, and overhanging eaves with exposed rafter tails.

Significance: Architecture and Design: Mid‐century Modern; : Area Goleta Period of Significance1963 Property Type: Institutional Applicable Criteria Local Criterion 2(c); This evaluation is for the church building on the property; the single‐family residence, constructed in 1883, is evaluated separately. The church building appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(c).
Criterion 2(c)
Cambridge Community Church appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(c) as an excellent example of Mid‐century Modern ecclesias
tical architecture in Goleta. Cambridge Community Church was designed in the Mid‐century Modern style by Kruger‐Bensen, AIA, Architects, in 1963. It exhibits quality of design and distinctive features including the A‐frame roof with overhanging eaves and exposed rafter tails; glass, plaster, and brick exterior wall panels and accents;
and expressed steel post‐and‐beam construction.
In the two decades after World War II, Goleta was transformed with new commercial and institutional buildings and several large housing tracts. This led to an expansion of Mid‐ce
ntury Modern ecclesiastical architecture in Goleta. In the 1950s and early 1960s, many religious institutions in Goleta constructed new sanctuaries, including Goleta area Baptists, who built a new sanctuary in 1963 (550 Cambridge Drive).
The roots of the Mid‐century Modern style can be traced to early Modernists like Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler, whose local work inspired “second generation” Modern architects like Gregory Ain, Craig Ellwood, Harwell Hamilton Harris, Pierre Koenig, Raphael Soriano, and many more. The style gained popularity because its use of standardized, prefabricated materials permitted quick and economical construction. It became the predominant architectural style in the postwar years and is represented in almost every property type, from single‐family residences to gas stations.
Kruger‐Bensen, AIA, Architects, was formed in 19 60 in Santa Barbara. The firm designed numerous commercial and institutional buildings in a variety of styles in Santa Barbara and Vent
ura Counties, including the County Bank Headquarters Building in Santa Barbara (1967), the Theater for the U.S. Naval Battalion Center in Port Hueneme (1968), and Westminster Presbyterian Church in Port Hueneme (1970).

It exhibits quality of design and distinctive features, including its hipped roof with prominent front facing dormer and boxed eaves with cornice, horizontal wood siding, and partial‐width porch with Classical columns.
One‐story, hipped roof or Neoclassical cottages are modest one‐story houses or cottages with simplified forms and hipped roofs with minimal decorative features.
Neoclassical cottages usually have hipped roofs with prominent central dormers. The portico featured on grander Neoclassical buildings is here reduced to a simple porch that may be either full‐ or partial‐width, included under the main roof or with a separate flat or shed roof supported on classical columns.

Collectively, these buildings appear eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Local Criteria 2(a) and 2(c).
Criterion 2(a)
The two buildings at the east side of the Raytheon campus collectivel y appear eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as an example of industrial development associated with the aerospace industry from the post‐World War II period. The buildings have a strong association with the aerospace industry, which quickly became Goleta’s dominant industry in the postwar period. Raytheon made sig nificant contributions to the aerospace industry and influenced the postwar developme
nt of Goleta.
The aerospace industry became a significant factor in Goleta starting in the mid‐1950s, with Aerophysics, Raytheon, and Hughes each establishing a presence in the city.
The space needed to house both the industries and their employees radically transformed Goleta’s landscape. Former walnut and lemon orchards gave way to industrial development and dozens of new, single‐family residential subdivisions.
Raytheon Company was founded as the American Appliance Company in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1922. The original intent for the business was to develop a new method for noiseless home refrigeration; however, the company soon shifted focus to vacuum tubes and other electronic devices. In 1924, after noting the rapidly growing consumer demand for radios in the United States, the company purchased patents for the S‐tube, a gas‐filled rectifier that converted alternating current (AC) used in house
holds to the direct current (DC) used in radio sets. In 1925, shortly before the company began to produce S‐tubes, a firm in Indiana claimed the American Appliance company name. As a result, the company changed its name to Raytheon Manufacturing Company. By 1926, Raytheon was a major manufacture r of tube rectifiers.
However,
the following year, the company was effectively shut out of the market by RCA, and turned to the production of radio‐rece iving tubes.
Soon thereafter, Raytheon began to diversify, acquiring Acme‐Delta Company, a producer of transformers, power equipment, and electronic auto parts. When the United States entered World War II, Raythe
on was chosen to develop the British magnetron, a top secret microwave radar power tube, which provided the range and imagery required to detect and destroy enemy planes, submarines, and warships, a significant contribution to the Allied Forces' efforts in World War II. After the war, the company established a plant in Gole
ta, following the lead of a number of other defense companies. Raytheon continued to work on defense contracts through the middle of the 20th century before diversifying in the 1960s and 1970s, acquiring Packard‐Bell's computer operations, a number of electronics firms, and a commercial refrigeration company.
The company continues to produce electronics both for commercial and defense purposes.

The architectural firm of Howell, Arendt, Mosher and Grant consisted of Henry W. Howell, Wallace William Arendt, Glen Gaylord Mosher, and Robert Grant. The firm was initially founded in 1946 by Henry Howell (1889-1962) and Wallace Arendt (1917-1975). Glen Gaylor Mosher (1914-1989) joined the firm in 1956 to handle the financial concerns of the firm. Robert Grant (b. 1928) joined the firm shortly thereafter. Henry Howell retired in 1959, after which the firm reorganized as Arend, Mosher & Grant until 1975. Following Arendt’s death in 1975, the successor firm became Peterson, Phillips, Mosher and Grant. Known works include Jordanos Market (1950); the Schmode residence (1952); Washington Elementary School (1953); Santa Barbara County Office Building (1954); La Cumbre Junior High School (1954); and Pierce Medical Building (1955), and institutional work for a number of school districts in Goleta, Paso Robles, and Atascadero.

Criterion 2(c)
Christ Lutheran Church appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(c) as a good local example of Mid‐century Modern ecclesiastical architecture. It was constructed in 1965 as a Mid‐century Modern style church, designed by Robert G. Johnson, AIA. The church exhibits quality of design and distinctive features, including the low‐pitched gable roof with wide overhanging eaves and stucco exterior wall panels.
In the tw
o decades after World War II, Goleta was transformed with new commercial and institutional buildings and several large housing tracts. This led to an expansion of Mid‐ce
ntury Modern ecclesiastical architecture in Goleta. In the 1950s and early 1960s, many religious institutions in Goleta constructed new sanctuaries.

The style gained popularity because its use of standardized, prefabricated materials permitted quick and economical construction. It became the predominant architectural style in the postwar years and is represented in al
most every property type, from single‐family residences to gas stations.
Robert Gilbert Johnson was born in Los Angeles in 1918. He received his Bache lor of Architecture degree from the University of Southern California in 1941 and served as a Lieutenant in the Navy during World War II. From 1952 through 1957, he was a partner in the Sherman Oaks‐based firm Benedict and Johnson, Architects, after which he formed a partnership with Henry Silvestri. Johnson's work was primarily institutional, focusing largely on educational projects for the Los Angeles Unified School District, Downey School D
istrict, and Harvard‐Westlake School. He retired in 1997, and died in Bradenton, Florida, in 2006.

Significance:Late 19th/Early 20th Century Development (1866‐1918): Agricultural Development (1866‐1918) Area Goleta Period of Significancec. 1895 Property Type: Industrial Applicable Criteria Local Criterion 2(a) This evaluation is for the farmhouse on the Fairview Gardens property. It appears eligible under for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a).
According to the Architectural Historic al Survey of Vernacular Homesteads in the Goleta Valley, completed in 1986, the c. 1895 farmhouse on the property is one of the last two story, c. 1890s farmhouses with site integrity. 12 of 40 acres historically associated with the property remain associated with the farmhouse. That survey did not formally evaluate properties for potential eligibility for historic designation, and no California Historical Resources Status Codes were assigned. This property was included on the General Plan List.
Criterion 2(a)
The farmhouse at Fairview Gardens appears eligible for listing as a Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as a rare remnant example of 19th century residential development associated with Goleta’s agricultural history. It was constructed in approximately 1895, during an early period of development in Goleta, and is one of only a few remaining properties dating to the late 19th century.
Farmers and homesteaders from the eastern and mid-western United States moved into the former La Goleta rancho between the 1860s and 1880s. During the 1870s, the character of the Goleta area began to shift from sparsely populated cattle ranches to farmsteads and towns. The ne w farmers required goods and services such as farm
machinery, wagons and buggies, blacksmithing, and general supplies. To serve their needs, two towns grew up along the County Road (present‐day Hollister Avenue), the main r
oad linking the isolated farms with Santa Barbara, More’s Landing, and points north. La Patera, named for the gathering of ducks in the adjacent marshy slough, was located at the corner of Fairview and Hollister Avenues, and was established in 1869. La Goleta, located on the north side of Hollister Avenue at Patterson Avenue, was situate
d on the southwestern portion of the La Goleta land grant. It too was founded in 1869. Between 1870 and 1890, the population of the Goleta Valley increased from 200 to 700 people. The two towns continued to serve the farming community as separate entities for approximately 60 years. Though the Valley’s population grew steadily, the towns themselves saw little development.

St. Raphael's Catholic Church was constructed in 1961. Collectively, these two buildings appear eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(c). This property was included on the General Plan List.
Criterion 2(c)
The church and classroom buildings on the St. Raphael's Catholic Church campus collectively appear eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Criterion 2(c) as good local examples of Mid‐century Modern ecclesiastical architecture. They exhibit quality of design and distinctive features, including the church building's low‐ pitched gable roof with wide overhanging eaves; the classroom building's flat roof; and both buildings' pl aster and brick exterior wall panels and accents.
In the two decades after World War II, Goleta was transformed with new commercial and institutional buildings and several large housing tracts. This led to an expansion of Mid‐century Modern eccl
esiastical architecture in Goleta. In the 1950s and early 1960s, many religious institutions in Goleta constructed new sanctuaries.
The roots of the Mid‐century Modern style can be traced to early Modernists like Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler, whose local work inspired “second generation” Modern architects like Gregory Ain, Craig Ellwood, Harwell Hamilton Harris, Pierre Koenig, Raphael Soriano, and many more. The style gained popularity because its use of standardized, prefabricated materials permitted quick and economical construction. It became the predominant architectural style in the postwar years and is represented in almost every property type, from single‐family residences to gas stations.

Area Goleta
Period of Significance1967 Property Type: Commercial Applicable Criteria Local Criterion 2(a); Local Criterion 2(c) The Bishop Event Center (formerly Blue Ox Steakhouse) appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criteria 2(a) and 2(c). It was included on the General Plan List and is located within the Old Town Heritage Overlay Zone.
Criterion 2(a)
The Bishop Event Center appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as a good local example of post‐World War II commercial development, representing the increased commercial development along Hollister Avenue associated with significant local growth in the postwar period.
There
was limited commercial growth in Goleta in the years immediately following World War II, as the construction of the Highway 101 bypass in 1947 drew commercial traffic away from downtown Goleta. The commercial district established in the prewar period along Hollister Avenue between Patterson and Fairview Avenues continued to be the ma
in commercial thoroughfare after the war, and commercial activity along Hollister and Fairview Avenues grew starting in the 1950s. By 1967, the Goleta Valley had 30 restaurants and three bakeries, four department stores, eight grocery stores, 21 service stations, a mortuary, four pharmacies, and dozens of construction‐related businesses.
Crite
rion 2(c)
The Bishop Event Center also appears eligible under local Criterion 2(c) as a good and rare local example of Googie architecture by architect Louis Mazzetti. It exhibits quality of desig
n and distinctive features including the large expanses of plate glass, cement plaster exterior wall cladding, and expressive roofline with exposed rafters.
The Blue Ox Steak House was designed in the Googie style by architect Louis Mazzetti in 19 67, and was built around the Witness Tree. Googie has been described as Modernism for the masses. With its swooping lines and organic shapes, the style attempted to capture the playful exuberance of postwar America. Named for the John Lautner‐designed Googie’s Restaurant in Los Angeles, the style was widely employed in roadside commercial architecture of the 1950s, including coffee shops, bowling alleys, and car washes. It exaggerated the vocabulary of Mid‐century Modern design to catch the eye of passing mo torists with dramatic sculptural rooflines, shimmering walls of glass, abstract shapes, and prominent integral signage.
Louis A. Mazzetti (1915‐2001) was born in Los Angeles. He studied at the Art Center College of Design in the 1930s and worked for Lockheed Aircraft during World War II.
Prior to s
tarting his own firm, Mazzetti worked briefly for Kem Weber. Mazzetti retired in the 1980s.

Significance Statement (continued):
The Tree Study conducted as part of the Historic Context Statement noted that the Witness Tree, a 250-year old California sycamore, is located in the patio of the Butler Event Center. It was designated as a Historical Landmark prior to the City's incorporation. The Witness Tree is actually a substitute, as the original Witness Tree was cut down in the 1800s to build Hollister Avenue. Note that trees in Goleta are regulated under the Goleta Urban Forest Management Plan, adopted June 7, 2011 and amended February 21, 2017. The documentation of trees is outside the scope of this survey.

Period of Significance1926 Property Type: Civic Applicable Criteria A/1/2(a); Local Criterion 2(c) The Goleta Union School building appears eligible for designation under Criterion A/1/2(a) and under Local Criterion 2(c). Page & Turnbull completed a Historic Resources Assessment for this property in 2016, in which they concluded that the Goleta Union School building is eligible for listing in the National and California Registers under Criterion A/1 for its role in the development of Goleta’s education system as well as in the growth of the town center; this survey concurs with that finding. The Goleta Union School (now the Goleta Valley Community Center) was included on the General Plan List and is located within the Old Town Heritage Overlay Zone.
Criterion A/1/2(a)
The Goleta Union School building appears eligible for listing in the National Register, California Register and as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Criterion A/1/2(a) as an important example of the continued institutional growth in Goleta during the 1920s. It represents institutional development from the 1920s, as Goleta transformed from two towns and a scattered grouping of ranches and farms into a booming citrus producer and oil town.
By the early 1920s, Goleta Valley schoolhouses were struggling to accommodate the 200 students in the district. To address the situation, the former Cathedral Oaks, La Patera, and Goleta Districts combined to form the Goleta Union School District in 1925. The new district began construction of the Goleta Union School at La Patera in 1926, spurring the shift of the center of influence from La Goleta to La Patera. The new Goleta Union School building required an $85,000 bond issue to purchase a 10-acre lot situated near the business district in La Patera, and to construct the Mediterranean Revival style schoolhouse designed by Santa Maria architect Louis N. Crawford. The new schoolhouse had six classrooms, an administration office, teacher and student restrooms, special rooms for cooking and manual arts instruction, a library, kitchen, and 390-seat auditorium. The building was promoted as “earthquake resistant,” with “fireproof walls and roof.” The Goleta Union School building occupies an important place in Goleta's institutional history. It is a rare extant example of 1920s institutional development in the City of Goleta, and is the only extant early school building in the City. It represents the expansion of Goleta's school system in direct response to the rapidly expanding population in the area as Goleta transformed into a bustling citrus and oil town in the period following World War I. It retains all seven aspects of historic integrity, and therefore continues to convey its historic significance as an important example of Goleta's continued institutional growth in the 1920s.B11.

Signifiance Statement (continued):
Criterion 2(c)
The Goleta Union School building also appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Local Criterion 2(c) as a good local example of Mediterranean Revival style architecture. It exhibits quality of design and distinctive features including its prominent front-gabled entry portico with terra cotta tile steps and Classical columns, front-gabled and hipped roofs with bracketed eaves, and cast plaster frieze reading "GOLETA UNION SCHOOL."
The Mediterranean Revival style is distinguished by its eclectic mix of architectural elements from several regions around the Mediterranean Sea, including Spain, Italy, southern France, and North Africa. The Mediterranean Revival style is sometimes more formal and usually more elaborately composed and ornamented than the simpler, more rustic Spanish Colonial Revival style, and often more flamboyant than the sober Italian Renaissance Revival style. Typical features of the Mediterranean Revival style include arched entrance doorways with richly detailed surrounds; arcades and loggias; stairways and terraces with cast stone balustrades; and Classical decorative elements in cast stone or plaster, including architraves, stringcourses, cornices, pilasters, columns, and quoins.
Louis Noire Crawford (1890-1946) was born in Louisville, Kentucky. Upon completing high school, he studied civil engineering at Purdue University for two years. He left Purdue and taught for four years, after which he enrolled at Illinois University, graduating with a Bachelor's degree in engineering.
Upon completion of additional course work, he became certified to practice architecture in Illinois and California. In 1915, Crawford took a position with the University of California (now UC Berkeley) during its summer session. Three years later, he joined the faculty at Santa Maria High School.
Crawford opened a private architectural practice as architect in Santa Maria in 1920. Known works include Santa Maria City Hall; the Santa Maria Gas Company annex; Santa Maria Elks Lodge No. 1538; the Knights of Phythias building; Orcutt, El Camino, Fairlawn, Goleta, Vista del Mar, Arroyo Grande, Pismo Beach, Cayucos and Morro Bay elementary schools; San Luis Obispo High and Junior High schools; and Cambria Pines high school. During his career, Crawford served as vice president of the Association of California Architects and president of the American Institute of Architects.
The Tree Study conducted as part of the Historic Context Statement identified the following mature trees on the property: jacaranda, melaleuca, deodar cedar, and Australian willow. Note that trees in Goleta are regulated under the Goleta Urban Forest Management Plan, adopted June 7, 2011 and amended February 21, 2017. The documentation of trees is outside the scope of this survey. 735

It was included on the General Plan List and is located within the Old Town Heritage Overlay Zone.
Local Criterion 2(a)
5757 Hollister Avenue appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as a rare local example of commercial development from the 1930s, during a period of continued growth and development of the towns of La Goleta and La Patera. It is an increasingly rare representation of the continued expansion of Hollister Avenue as Goleta's primary commercial corridor during the Great Depression. Constructed in c. 1928 as an airplane hangar by Earle Ovington, the first air mail pilot in the
United States, the building was relocated to its present site from the Casa Loma Air Field in Santa Barbara (now the municipal golf course) in 1939.
The period between World War I and World War II witnessed a number of changes in the Goleta Valley’s commercial centers. At the beginning of the 1920s, the towns of La Goleta and La Patera formed Goleta’s original commercial districts, centered on Hollister and Patterson Avenues, and Hollister and Fairview Avenues, respectively.
Goleta and La Patera’s commercial districts combined to become one commercial center in 1933, when the United States Postal Service established the Goleta post office in La Patera, changing that town’s name and effectively combining the neighboring settlements.

It was included on the General Plan List and is located within the Old Town Heritage Overlay Zone.
Criterion 2(a)
5784 Hollister Avenue appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as a rare local example of commercial development from the 1930s, during a period of continued growth and development of the towns of La Goleta and La Patera. It is an increasingly rare representation of the continued expansion of Hollister Avenue as Goleta's primary commercial corridor during the Great Depression.
The period between World War I and World War II witnessed a number of changes in the Goleta Valley’s commercial centers. At the beginning of the 1920s, the towns of La Goleta and La Patera formed Goleta’s original commercial districts, centered on Hollister and Patterson Avenues, and Hollister and Fairview Avenues, respectively.
Goleta and La Patera’s commercial districts combined to become one commercial center in 1933, when the United States Postal Service established the Goleta post office in La Patera, changing that town’s name and effectively combining the neighboring settlements.

B10. Significance: Post‐World War II Development (1946‐1969): Aerospace Industry Period of Significance1957 Property Type: Industrial Applicable Criteria Local Criterion 2(a) This evaluation is for the former primary building on the Delco campus, located at the southwest corner of Hollister Avenue and Coromar Drive. It appears eligible under Local Criteria 2(a) and 2(c).
Criterion 2(a)
The former primary building on the Delco campus appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as good local example of industrial development associated with the aerospace industry from the post‐World War II period, and for its association with Delco Systems Operations. The campus has a strong association with the aerospace industry, which quickly became Golet a’s dominant industry in the postwar period. Delco Systems Operations made significant contributions to aerospace industry and influenced the postwar development of Goleta.
The aerospace industry became a significant factor in Goleta starting in the mid‐1950s, with Aerophysics, Raytheon, and Hughes each establishing a presence in the city.
The space needed to house both the industries and their employees radically transformed Goleta’s l andscape. Former walnut and lemon orchards gave way to industrial development and dozens of new, single‐family residential subdivisions.
In October 1960, General Motors (GM) purchased the former Aerophysics facility for its Defense Systems Division. Two years later, GM created the GM Research Laboratories to conduct research and development activities on defense systems. GM Research Laboratories later merged with Delco Electronics, and was renamed Delco Systems Operations. The company was involved in developing early missile guidance systems during the Cold War, guidance systems for NASA's Apollo lunar program, and systems engineering for the Apollo Lunar Roving Vehicle. To test the maneuverability of the rovers, a moonscape was built behind the engineering building.
Criterion 2(c)
The former primary building on the Delco campus also appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(c) as a good example of Mid‐ century Modern commercial/industrial architecture designed by Howell, Arendt, Mosher & Grant. It exhibits quality of design and distinctive features, including the flat roof with wide overhanging eaves; glass, plaster, and stone exterior wall panels and accents; and the lack of exterior decorative detailing.
Other buildings on the former Delco campus may also be eligible for this association. They are not fully visible from the public right‐of‐way; therefore, additional information is needed to fully evaluate the campus.

Significance Statement (continued):
Other buildings on the former Delco campus may also be eligible for this association. They are not fully visible from the public right-of-way; therefore, additional information is needed to fully evaluate the campus.
The roots of the Mid-century Modern style can be traced to early Modernists like Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler, whose local work inspired “second generation” Modern architects like Gregory Ain, Craig Ellwood, Harwell Hamilton Harris, Pierre Koenig, Raphael Soriano, and many more. The style gained popularity because its use of standardized, prefabricated materials permitted quick and economical construction. It became the predominant architectural style in the postwar years and is represented in almost every property type, from single-family residences to gas stations.
The architectural firm of Howell, Arendt, Mosher and Grant consisted of Henry W. Howell, Wallace William Arendt, Glen Gaylord Mosher, and Robert Grant. The firm was initially founded in 1946 by Henry Howell (1889-1962) and Wallace Arendt (1917-1975). Glen Gaylor Mosher (1914-1989) joined the firm in 1956 to handle the financial concerns of the firm. Robert Grant (b. 1928) joined the firm shortly thereafter. Henry Howell retired in 1959, after which the firm reorganized as Arend, Mosher & Grant until 1975. Following Arendt’s death in 1975, the successor firm became Peterson, Phillips, Mosher and Grant. Known works include Jordanos Market (1950); the Schmode residence (1952); Washington Elementary School (1953); Santa Barbara County Office Building (1954); La Cumbre Junior High School (1954); and Pierce Medical Building (1955), and institutional work for a number of school districts in Goleta, Paso Robles, and Atascadero.

Area Goleta
Period of Significance1914 Property Type: Single family property Applicable Criteria Local Criterion 2(a); Local Criterion 2(c) This evaluation is for the single‐family residence on the property at 110 S. Kellogg Avenue. It appears eligible under Local Criteria 2(a) and 2(c). The property was included on the General Plan List.
Criterion 2(a)
The single‐family residence on the property at 110 S. Kellogg Avenue appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as an excellent and rare remaining example of the original neighborhood that developed adjacent to the commercial corridor between La Goleta and La Patera. The early 20th century was a significant era in Goleta’s development, laying the groundwork for the surrounding area. Additionally, this property was associated with the Kellogg family, which made a significant impact on the early development of Goleta.
As the Goleta Valley shifted from cattle ranches to individual farmsteads, new farmers required goods and services. To serve their needs, two towns grew up along the County Road (present‐day Hollister Avenue). Early residential development through the first decades of the 20th century was largely localized around the historic town of La Patera, northeast of the intersection of Fairview and Hollister Avenues.
Criterion 2(c)
The single‐family residence on the property at 110 S. Kellogg Avenue also appears eligible under Local Criterion 2(c) as good and rare local example of Craftsman style residential architecture. There are relatively few intact examples of Craftsman style residential architecture in Goleta from this period. The building exhibits quality of design and distinctive features including the low‐pitched gable roof with wide overhanging eaves, exterior walls clad in wood clapboard siding, and projecting partial‐width front porch with heavy masonry porch piers.
The Craftsman bungalow dates from the early 1900s through the 1920s. Craftsman bungalows generally have rectangular or irregular plans, and are one to one‐and‐a‐half stories tall. They have wood clapboard or shingle exteriors and a pronounced horizontal emphasis, with broad front porches, often composed with stone, clinker brick, or plastered porch piers. Other character‐defining features include low‐pitched front‐facing gable roofs, and overhanging eaves with exposed rafter tails.
The Tree Study conducted as part of the Historic Context Statement noted that this property contains the largest California sycamore tree ever measured anywhere on the planet (also partially on the grounds of Johnny D. Wallis Park). Referred to locally as the Sister Witness Tree, though no DNA evidence supports the connection, the tree is officially recognized as a National Champion Tree through American Forests Note that trees in Goleta are regulated under the Goleta Urban Forest Management Plan, adopted June 7, 2011 and amended February 21, 2017. The documentation of trees is outside the scope of this survey.

It was included on the General Plan List.
Criterion 2(a)
The building at 170 Magnolia Avenue appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Local Criterion 2(a) as a rare extant example of early commercial development near the original town center of La Patera. The Ellwood Hotel was established in 1915 to serve visitors to the growing commercial corridor betwee
n La Patera and La Goleta; it later catered to the growing number of automobile tourists traveling along the California coast. The building is now one of few remaining commercial buildings from the early 20th century in the City of Goleta, and is uniquely representative of the early 20th century commercial development of Goleta a
nd the growing popularity of tourism throughout the state as the century progressed.
The early 20th century was a significant era in Goleta’s development, laying the groundwork for future development of the area. As the Goleta Valley shifted from cattle ranches to individual farmsteads, new farmers required goods and services. To serve their needs, two towns grew up along the County Road (present‐day Hollister Avenue).
La Patera, named for the gathering of ducks in the adjacent marshy slough, was located at the corner of Fairview and Hollister Avenues. La Goleta, located on the north side of Hollister Avenue at Patterson Avenue, wa s situated on the southwestern portion of the La Goleta land grant.

Criterion 2(a)
The residence at 170 Nectarine Avenue appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark as a rare example of residential development from the early 1920s.
This is a remnant of the original residential neighborhood that developed adjacent to the commercial corridor between the two towns of La Goleta and La Patera. The early 20th century wa
s a significant era in Goleta’s development, laying the groundwork for future development of the area.
Many residences constructed between 1919 and 1940 in Goleta are located near the town of La Patera, which became the commercial center of Goleta in 1933, when the United States Postal Service established the Goleta post office there. Residential develop ment was disorganized during the period. Several housing tracts were laid out in the 1920s, but were generally not highly developed due to the area’s lack of available water. Most surviving residences from this period originated as a result of scattered development within th
ese subdivisions.

It was included on the General Plan List.
Criterion 2(a)
The Camel Motor Court appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Local Criterion 2(a) as a rare early example of auto‐related commercial development in Goleta. The Camel Motor Court was established c. 1920 alongside a gasoline station (demolished). This early predecessor to the more widely known motel was a collection of modest cabins designed to offer lodgings to auto tourists traveling through Goleta along the commercial thoroughfare of Hollister Avenue. It is the only known motor court in Goleta, and is the
refore uniquely representative of early 20th century automobile tourism in the area.
In the 1920s, the automobile was the leading consumer product in the country, and by 1925 there was one automobil e for every six Americans (compared to one for every 100 in Great Britain). The automobile and the freedom it represented touched the American spirit of indivi dualism and exploration, and the new motor tourist – upper and middle cl
ass alike ‐‐ was lured by the adventure of the open road, unencumbered by the routes and schedules of the railr oads. Several Goleta businesses catered to the new breed of automobile tourists, including the Camel Auto Court and gasoline station.

Significance:Late 19th/Early 20th Century Development (1866‐1918): The Development of Two Towns (1869‐1918) Area Goleta Period of Significance1887 Property Type: Institutional Applicable Criteria Local Criterion 2(a) This evaluation is for the farmhouse on the property. It appears eligible under Local Criterion 2(a). It was included on the General Plan List.
Criterion 2(a)
The forme
r Beck family farmhouse at 5399 Overpass Road appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a). It was constructed in 1887, during an early pe
riod of development in Goleta. The Beck House is an excellent and rare remaining example of agriculture‐related residential development from the late 19th century in Goleta.
During the
1870s, the character of the Goleta area began to shift from sparsely populated cattle ranches to farmsteads and towns. The new farmers required goods and services such as farm machinery, wagons and buggies, blacksmithing, and general supplies. To serve their needs, two towns grew up along the County Road (present‐day Hollister Avenue), the main road linking the isolated farms with Santa Barbara, More’s Landing, and points north. La Patera, named for the gathering of ducks in the adjacent marshy slough, was located at the corner of Fairview and Hollister Avenues, and was established in 1869. La Goleta, located on the north side of Hollister Avenue at Patterson Avenue, was situated on the southwestern portion of the La Goleta land grant. It too was founded in 1869. Between 1870 and 1890, the population of the Goleta Valley increased from 200 to 700 people. The two towns continued to serve the farming community as separate entities for approximately 60 years. Though the Valley’s popula
tion grew steadily, the towns themselves saw little development.
Among those farme
rs who moved to the Goleta Valley in the late 19th century was Davi d Beck. Beck was born in Maryland in 1826. He lived and worked as a carpenter, contractor, and builder in Pennsylvania, Illinois, and San Bernardino County. In the 1880s, Beck moved to the Goleta Valley, where he became a farmer, primarily growing walnuts on his 27‐acre ranch off of Patterson Road. He married Jennie Haig in 1890, and prior to their marriage, constructed a two‐story farmhouse on his property for them to live in. Beck died in 1915 at the age of 90. Over time, pieces of the ranch were sold off, until the State of California acquired the land, including the reside nce, barn, and outbuildings.
More information about this property may be found in "Beck House, A Goleta Farmhouse Reborn," by Gary B. Coombs and Jon Bartel.
The property has numerous mature trees. Note that trees in Goleta are regulated under the Goleta Urban Forest Management Pla n, adopted June 7, 2011 and amended
February 21, 2017. The documentation of trees is outside the scope of thi s survey.

Criterion 2(a)
The former Associated Telephone Company building at 195 S. Patterson Avenue appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) for its association with 1920s infrastructure in Goleta. It is a rare remaining commercial building from the 1920s in Goleta, representing the area's transformation during that decade from two separate towns to one commercial center.
The period between World War I and World War II witnessed a number of changes in the Goleta Valley’s commercial centers. At the beginning of the 1920s, the towns of La Goleta and La Patera formed Goleta’s original commercial districts, centered on Hollister and Patterson Avenues, and Hollister and Fairview Avenues, respectively.
Associated Telephone replaced the operator at the telephone exchange in Edgar Blakeway’s store with modern switching equipment at a small building at 195 Patterson Avenue. This became the Goleta Central Office for Associated Telephone. Goleta and La Patera’s commercial districts combined to become one commercial center in 1933, when the United States Postal Service established the Goleta post office in La Patera, changing that town’s name and effectively combining the neighboring settlements.
Criterion 2(c)
Additionally, the former Associated Telephone Company building at 195 S. Patterson Avenue appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Criterion 2(c) as a good local example of Mediterranean Revival architecture. It exhibits quality of design and distinctive features, including the hipped roof with clay barrel tiles and eave cornice, exterior walls veneered in smooth plaster, and the elaborate door surround with arched transom and decorative grille of cast plaster.
The Mediterranean Revival style is distinguished by its eclectic mix of architectural elements from several regions around the Mediterranean Sea, including Spain, Italy, southern France, and North Africa. The Mediterranean Revival style i s sometimes more formal and usually more elaborately composed and ornamented than the simpler, more rustic Spanish Colonial Revival style, and often more flamboyant than the sober Italian Renaissance Revival style. Typical features of the Mediterranean Revival style include arched entrance doorways with richly detaile d surrounds; arcades and loggias; stairways and terraces with cast stone balustrades; and Classical decorative ele
ments in cast stone or plaster, including architraves, stringcourses, cornices, pilasters, columns, and quoins.

(EG&G) building at 130 Robin Hill Road appears eligible under Local Criteria 2(a) and 2(c).
Criterion 2(a)
The former EG&G building at 130 Robin Hill Road appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Local Criterion 2 (a) as an excellent local example of industrial development associated with the aerospace industry from the post‐World War II period. It has a strong association with the aerospace industry, which quickly became Goleta’s dominant industry in the postwar period. Edgerton, Germeshausen & Grier, Inc. made significant contributions to aerospace industry and influenced the postwar de
velopment of Goleta.
The aerospace industry became a significant factor in Goleta starting in the mid‐1950s, with Aerophysics, Raytheon, and Hughes each establishing a presence in the city.
The space needed to house both the industries and their employees r adically transformed Goleta’s landscape. Former walnut and lemon orchards gave way to industrial development and dozens of new, single‐family residential subdivisions.
Harold Edgerton, Kenneth Germeshausen, and Herbert Grier became an incorporated partnership in 1947 at the request of the Atomic Energy Commission. Now known as EG&G, Inc., they designed and operated systems that timed and triggered nuclear bomb tests. To take still pictures of atomic bombs, which release a huge burst of light, Edgergon, Germeshausen & Grier invented the “rapatronic” (rapid electronic) camera. When light from the bomb hit the photocell in the camera, it triggered a mechanism that opened and then cut off the exposure in as little as two microseconds. By 1950, EG&G had perfected their ultra‐high‐speed techniques. They designed a camera shutter that had no moving mechanical parts, making possible photographs with an exposure time of from four‐ to ten‐millionths of a second.
Criterion 2(c)
The
former EG&G building also appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Local Criterion 2(c) as a good local example of Mid‐century Modern industrial architecture by Stice and Takayama Associates. It exhibits quality of design and distinctive features, including the gl ass, plaster, and steel exterior wall panels; primary entrance recessed beneath projecting second story; and flat roof.

Significance Statement (continued):
The roots of the Mid-century Modern style can be traced to early Modernists like Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler, whose local work inspired “second generation” Modern architects like Gregory Ain, Craig Ellwood, Harwell Hamilton Harris, Pierre Koenig, Raphael Soriano, and many more. The style gained popularity because its use of standardized, prefabricated materials permitted quick and economical construction. It became the predominant architectural style in the postwar years and is represented in almost every property type, from single-family residences to gas stations.
Little is known about Stice and Takayama Associates. Aside from this building, the firm's only known work is Village Medical Center in Thousand Oaks (1963).

Criterion 2(a)
The residence at 6260 Shamrock Avenue appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under Local Criterion 2(a) as a rare extant example of residential development from the 1930s in Goleta. This residence predates the surrounding area by several decades and may have a historic association with the agriculture industry.
Many residences constructed between 1919 and 1940 in Goleta are located near the town of La Patera, which became the commercial center of Goleta in 1933, when the United States
Postal Service established the Goleta post office there. Residential development was disorganized during the period. Several housing tracts were laid out in the 1920s, but were generally not highly developed due to the area’s lack of available water. Most surviving residences from this period originated as a result of scattered development within these subdivisions.

Significance:Post‐World War II Development (1946‐1969): Post‐World War II Commercial Development Area Goleta Period of Significance1959 Property Type: Commercial Applicable Criteria Local Criterion 2(a) The restaurant building known as The Timbers appears eligible under Local Criterion 2(a). It was included on the General Plan List.
Criterion 2(a)
The Timbers appears eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as an example of post‐World War II commercial development representing increased development along the commercial corridors associated with significant local growth in the postwar period. It is the long‐term home of the legacy business The Timbers Restaurant, which operated in various forms at the building since its construction in 1969 through 2003, and has become a landmark in the community.
There
was limited commercial growth in Goleta in the years immediately following World War II, as the construction of the Highway 101 bypass in 1947 drew commercial traffi
c away from downtown Goleta. The commercial district established in the prewar period along Hollister Avenue between Patterson and Fairview Avenues continued to be the main commercial thoroughfare after the war, and commercial activity along Hollister and Fairview Avenues grew starting in the 1950s.
According to local historians, The Timber restaurant building was constructed from the Ellwood pier, which had been destroyed by a Japanese submarine attack in 1942, durin
g World War II. In the 1950s, Tex Blankenship purchased the 12x15 inch pine timbers, some of which showed evidence of the attack, to build the restaurant known as The Timbers.
Stonemasons John and James Rezzonico were hired to build the large fireplace, using stones from the nearby Cachuma Lake project. Unfortunately, Blankenship's The Timbers never opened, and the building sat vacant for nearly a decade before successful restauranteur Sam Villiotes purchased it. The restaurant reopened as Timbers Roadhouse in late 2021.

RESOLUTION NO. 21-05
A RESOL
UTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
GOLETA, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL
ADOPT THE PROPOSED GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT TO THE
VISUAL AND HISTORIC RESOURCES ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL
PLAN/COASTAL LAND USE PLAN; CASE NO. 20-0004-GPA.
The Pla
nning Commission of the City of Goleta does resolve as follows:
SECTION 1: Recitals: The Planning Commission finds and declares that:
A. The Gole
ta General Plan/Coastal Land Use Plan ( “General Plan” ) is the City’s official policy that guides land use and phy sical development of the geographic area of the incorporated City limits; and
B. California
Government Code Sections 65350 et seq. authorize cities and counties to prepare, adopt and amend General Plans and their ele ments; and
C. Calif
ornia Government Code Section 65358(a) reads, “If it deems it to be in the public interest, the legislative body may amend all or part of an adopted general plan. An amendment to the general plan shall be initiated in the manner specified b y the legi slative body. Notwithstanding Section 66016, a legislative body that permits persons to request an amendment of the general plan may require that an amount equal to the estimated cost of preparing the amendment be deposited with the planning agen cy prior to the preparation of the amendment”; and
D. T he General
Plan contains several General Plan policies related to
Historic Resources in the Visual and Historic Resources Element; and E. On Apr
il 6, 2021, the City Council init iated General Plan Am endment 20- 0004-GPA at a noticed public hearing; and
F. On May 20,
202 1, requests for consultation with local Native American groups regarding the proposed General Plan Amendment were mailed and no requests for consultation have been received to date. Further, the Barbareno Band of Chumash I ndians and the Northern Chumash Tribal Council (Los Osos area) have indicated that they do not need to consult on this GPA; and
G. On June
14, 2021 , the Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing at whic h all interested parties were heard. Further, the Planning Commission considered the entire adm inistrative r ecord 767
Resolut
ion No. 21 -05, Recommending that the City Council Adopt the Proposed GP Amendment to the Visual and Historic Resources Element of the GP/CLUP; Case No. 20-0004-GPA including, without limitation, staff reports, and evidence submit ted during the public hearing.
SECTION 2 Factual Findings and Conclusions: The Planning Commission finds as follows:
A. The
City Council adopted the Goleta General Plan/Coastal Land Use Plan (General Plan) on October 2, 2006.
B. The General Plan has been amended twenty-two times previously with the latest occurring on January 19, 2021.
C. T he Gener
al Plan contains Chapter 5 the Visual and H istoric Resources Element which has a number of policies relating to Historic Resources.
D. On June 21
, 2016, the City Council approved a contract with Hist oric Resources Group (HRG) for the development of a Historic Preserva tion Ordinance and, in order to maintain consistency between the General Plan and the Ordinance, amendments to some of the Visual and Historic Policies are necessary.
E. On April 6,
2021, the City Council initiated General Plan Amendment Case No. 20-0004-GPA.
F. The fact
ual findings and conclusions in this Se ction are based upon substantial evidence found within the entirety of the administrative record.
SECTION 3: Environmental Assessmen t for the Project. The Planning Commission makes the following environmental findings:
A. The propos
ed project is exempt from environmental review pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines § 15061(b)(3). Specifically, it c an be seen with cer tainty that there is no possibility that the General Plan text amendment would have potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The proposal is to update the existing languag e of fo ur existing General Plan policies and does not change t he intent of these policies . T he City will continue to recognize t he str uctures an d sites listed in General Plan policy VH 5.1 as important historical resources along with tho se structures formally pl aced on the City’s Historic Resources Inventory. In addition, the City will continue to have policies regarding the establishment of eligibility criteria (VH 5.2), process and considerations associated with alteration proposal s to historic resources (VH 5 .5.), and process and range of alternatives and mitigat ions associated with demolition requests (VH 5.6). For these reasons, the re is no possibility that the activit y i n question can have a significant effect on the environment and thus the activity is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“ CEQA”). (S tate CEQA Guidelines , § 15061(b)(3).)
768
Resolut
ion No. 21 -05, Recommending that the City Council Adopt the Proposed GP Amendment to the Visual and Historic Resources Element of the GP/CLUP; Case No. 20-0004-GPA Furth
er, the GPA would not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment as this is a General Plan tex t amendment and the activity does not satisfy the definition of a “ project” in State CEQA Guidelines S ection 15378 and thus is not subject to CEQA review.
B. T here is
substantial evidence in the record showing that the General Plan text amendment is not an activity subject to CEQA.
SECTION 4: General Plan Amendment Findings . The Planning Comm ission makes the following Findings pursuant to Subsec tion 17.67.040(C) of the Goleta Municipal Code:
A. The amendm
ent is cons istent with the guiding principles and goals of the General Plan.
The propos
ed GPA is consistent with the Guiding Principles and Goals of the City’s General Pl an. The applicable Visual and Hi storic Resources Element Guiding Principles and Goals are:
Guiding Principle VH-4 (preserve links to Goleta’s architectural past whenever possible to avoid loss of community character). Guiding Principle VH-5 (preserve the city’s historic structures and sites as irreplaceable resources and protect these resources from deterioration, inappropriate alterations, and demolition). Guiding Principle VH -6 (encourage owners of historic structures and sites to inv est in maintenance and restoration efforts and, if eligible, seek historic landmark status).
Guiding Principle VH- 7 (strengthen the character of Goleta Old Town [old Town] to reflect its position as the historic hub of the community.
Guiding Principle VH-8 (ensure that new construction and additions to existing buildings maintain the character and livabi lity of existing neighborhoods and are designed to fit appropriately within the context of the surrounding area); and
General Plan Goal VH -5 Historic Resources (identify, protect, and encourage preservation of si gnificant architectural , historic, and prehistoric sites, structures, and properties that comprise Goleta’s heritage).
The propos
ed GPA would be in keeping with the above- referenced
Guiding Principles and Goals as the purpose of this amendment is t o create harmony between the General Plan and Ordinance. The proposed changes are based on the work done to create regulations and standards to implement the General Pla n and on the recent survey work to identify 769
Resolut
ion No. 21 -05, Recommending that the City Council Adopt the Proposed GP Amendment to the Visual and Historic Resources Element of the GP/CLUP; Case No. 20-0004-GPA local historic resources. The GPA will not alter the intent of the abov e- referenced Guiding Principles and Policies, but will strengthen, enhance, and implement what has previously been adopted.
B. The amendm
ent is deemed to be in the public interest.
The propose
d GPA is deemed to be in the publi c inte rest. The
amendment will have no material effect on the community or the General Plan. The GPA will not change the intent of the Visual and Historic Resources Element policies but w ill foster clarity and harmony between the General Plan and the proposed Ordinance. The amendment will make revisions and updates to the General Plan Policies related to historic and cultural resources based on the additional information resulting from the work of the City’s historic r esources consultant. The historic a nd cultural resources policies were adopted over 14 years ago without the benefit of a detailed study of the City by a historic consultant.
Further, the amendment will make revisions and updat es to the General Plan polic ies related to historic and cultural resources based on the additional information resulting from the work of the City’s historic resources consultant. These policies were adopted over 14 years ago without the benefit of a d etailed study of the City by a historic consultant.
The benefit to the City is to have updated policies that are in keeping with both national and State historic resource practices.
SECTION 5: Recommendation. The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council take the following actions:
A. Based o
n the findings outlined in Sections 3-4 above, amend the Visual and Historic Resource Element of the Goleta General Plan as provided i n Exhibit 1 (Policies VH 5.1, VH 5.2, VH 5.5 and VH 5.6); and B. D irect
staff to fil e the Notice of Exemption (NOE) within five (5) busines s days after Council action.
SECTION 6: Reliance on Record. Each and every one of the findings and determinations in this Resolution is based on the competent and subs tantial evidence, bot h oral and written, con tained in the entir e record relati ng to the Project. The findings and determinations constitute the independent findings and determinations of th e Planning Commission in all respects and are fully and completely supported by substantial evidence in the record as a whole.
SECTION 7: Limitations. The Planning Commission’s analysis and evaluation of the Project is based on the best information c urrently available. It is inevitable that in evaluating a project that absolute and perfect knowledge o f all possibl e 770
Resolut
ion No. 21 -05, Recommending that the City Council Adopt the Proposed GP Amendment to the Visual and Historic Resources Element of the GP/CLUP; Case No. 20-0004-GPA aspects of the project will not exist. One of the major limitations on analysis of the Project is the Planning Commission’s lack of knowle dge of future events . In all instances, best efforts have been made to form accurate assumptions. Related to this finding are the limitations on the City’s ability to solve what are in effect regional, state and national problems and issues. The City must work within the political framework within which it exists and with the limitations inherent in that framework.
SECTION 8: Summaries of Information . All summaries of i nformation in the findings, which precede this section, are based on the substantial evidence in the record. The absence of any particular fact from any such s ummary is n ot an indication that a particular finding is not based in part on that fact.
SECTION 9: This Resolution will remain effective until superseded by a subsequent Resolution.
SECTION 10: This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption.
SECTION 11: The City Clerk will certify to the passage and adoption of this resolution and enter it into the book of original resolutions.
PASSED, APP
ROVED AND ADOPTED this 14th day of June 2021.

Updates to four City of Goleta General Plan policies regarding landmark designation (VH
5.1), eligibility criteria (VH 5.2), alterations (VH 5.5) and demolition (VH 5.6) in order for the General Plan policies language to be more encompassing and general in nature.
Changes are proposed in order to ensure consistency between the General Plan and the Ordinance with the General Plan outlining City policy and the Ordinance enacting the regulations. None of the edits change the intent of what was originally adopted but are revised to reflect current be st practices and the adoption by the City of a Historic Resources Inventory.
For both cases, the beneficiaries of the project are the citizens of Goleta.

Reason(s) why the project is exempt:
Pursuant to Public Resourc es Co de Secti on 2 1083.3 and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15183, proje cts that are consistent with the development density of existing zoning, community plan, or General Plan policies for which an Environmental Impact Repor t (EI R) was c ertified shall be exempt from additional CEQA analysis except as may be necessary to deter mine whether there are project-specific significant effects that are peculiar to t he projec t o r site that would otherwise require additional CEQA review . There is no new substantial information indicating tha t the impa cts of the project will be more severe than described in the General Plan EIR when the Vi sual and Historic Resources Ele ment was adopted and there are no cumulative or off -site impacts from t he proposed p roject that were not addressed in the Gene ral Plan EIR. As such, the Ordinance is exempt f rom further CEQA review.
In addition, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15061(b)(3) an d §15378(b)(5), the proposed Ordinance does not qualify as a "project" for the purpo ses of CEQA because the Ordinance does not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. The amendments proposed do not, by themselves, have the potenti al to cau se a significant effect on the environment. Any subsequent dev elopment proj ect will be separately examined in accorda nce with CEQA. As such, the proposed Ordinance is exempt from CEQA review.

Emergency Project (Sec. 15269 (b) (c))
Categorical Exemption: §15061(b)(3) and §15378
Reason(s) why the project is exempt:
It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the General Plan Amendment would have potential for causing a significant effect on the environment given the nature of the project. Further the GPA would not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment as the project revise s the language of four existing General Plan policies, does not change the intent of the policies that are the subject of this amendment, and will not result in new development.
The City will continue to recogniz e the structures and sites listed in General Plan policy VH 5.1. as importan t historical resources along with those structures formally placed on the City’s Historic Resources Inventory. In addition, the City will continue to have policies regarding the establishment of eligibility criteria (VH 5.2), process and considerations fo r alteration proposals to historic resources (VH 5.5.), and process and range of alternatives and mitigations associated with demolition requests (VH 5.6) . Any subsequent requests that would be affected by the se Historic Resources policies would be subject to their own individual CEQA analysis.

BACKGROUND
Project Background
On June 21, 2016, the City Council approved a contract with Historic Resources Group (HRG) to assist staff with the development of a Historic Preservation program, including the development of a citywide context statement, a historic resources survey, and an ordinance. To assist with the work, Greenwood Associates (an archaeological firm) , Carlberg Associates (horticultural/registered consulting arborist fir m), and later Paleo Solutions, were included as part of the team.
815
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
The development of a Context Statement was the first step in the process. A Context Statement is not a comprehensive history of the community but instead highlights the trends and patterns critical to the understanding of the setting of development within the appropriate historic, social, architectural and cultural resource context. The cultural resource context portion provides insights from the Barbareño Band of Chumash Indians along with input from the scientific community regarding the archaeological importance of Goleta. As the chapters of the Context Statement were completed, each was made available for public comment as follows:
Built Environment: September 2017
Archaeological Resources: November 2017
Tree and Landscape Study: November 2017
Planning Commission Review of Revised
Comprehensive Context Statement: January 2019
City Council Acceptance of
Context Statement: February 2019
The Context Statement was purposely not formally adopted at that time pending development of Eligibility Criteria (a component of the Ordinance). Following the Council acceptance of the Context Statement in February 2019, the Planning Commission held three workshops/study sessions (b etween April – June 2019) to provide staff with guidance regarding the topics to be covered in the Ordinance.
While HRG was able to prepare a draft ordinance following the Planning Commission workshops in the summer/fall of 2019, the assigned City staff for this project was diverted to the Vehicle Miles Traveled California Environmental Quality Act Threshold Project (VMT CEQA Thresholds). The VMT CEQA Threshold project took precedence as it had a firm deadline for implementation of July 1, 2020.
Information/materials regarding the Historic Preservation project are accessible on the City’s website at www.historicgoleta.org.
Planning Commission Review
Since December 2020, the Planning Commission has reviewed the regulations and associated documents provided in Attachments 2 and 3 over five meetings. On December 14, 2020, and March 29, 2021, the Planning Commission reviewed the materials related to Historic Resources and properties that could be design ated as Goleta Historic Landmarks and properties that could be placed on the Historic Resources Inventory for future designation consideration. On June 21, 2021, and August 23, 2021, the Planning Commission review ed the Archaeological and Tribal Cultural R esources provisions proposed to be adopted as Chapter 17.43. At each meeting, input was received from the Planning Commissioners and the public. Following each meeting, revisions were made in responses to the comments.
816
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
On October 25, 2021, the Planning Commission was scheduled to review the Ordinance, but the scheduled hearing did not occur given the lateness of the hour. The Planning Commission continued the matter specifically to November 8, 2021, at which time the Commission reviewed the ordinance provisions comprehensively . After conducting the public hearing, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the Ordinance (Attachment 2) and the Resolution adopting the Context Statement and the His toric Resources Inventory (Attachment 3).
Following the November 8 th meeting, staff has made a minor addition to Section
17.43.020(A) to add clarity relating to irrigation, landscaping and minor accessory uses as this was a topic of discussion . More detail regarding this change is discussed below under Chapter 17.43.
General Plan Amendment
As prepared, the draft Ordinance deviates from the specific wording of a few policies in the General Plan/Coastal Land Use Plan (General Plan) Visual and Historic Res ources Element. This deviation is a result of how detailed and specific the adopted General Plan Policy language is. While the work done on the Ordinance has used the General Plan as the guiding document and fulfills its intent, minor changes to the specif ic language of a few General Plan policies were identified (VH 5.1, VH 5.2, VH 5.5, and VH 5.6). Given the differences (albeit minor), an amendment to the General Plan (GPA) was initiated by the City Council on April 4, 2021.
On June 14, 2021, the Planni ng Commission reviewed the proposed GPA and recommended Council adoption of the minor language change to the above referenced General Plan Policies. Planning Commission Resolution No. 21 -05 is provided as Attachment 4. In conformance with Senate Bill 18, letters were sent to seven tribal groups offering consultation on the proposed General Plan Amendment on May 2 1, 2021. The consultation period concluded on August 2 1, 2021, with no requests for consultation.
Attachment 1 is the Resolution adopting the General Plan Amendment.
JURISDICTION
Final action on the Ordinance Amendment and General Plan Amendment is the responsibility of the City Council (Subsection 17.50.030(A)). Chapters 17.66 (Amendments to Zoning Regulations and Zoning Maps ) and 17.67 (Amendments to the General Plan) require the Planning Commission to provide recommendations to the City Council on all proposed Ordinance Amendments and GPAs.
DISCUSSION
General Plan Amendment (Attachment 1)
As mentioned above, four General Plan policies have been identified for refinements.
None of the proposed revisions change the intent of the language that was adopted more than 15 years ago. The policies proposed for revisions are 1) landmark designation (VH 817
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
5.1); 2) eligibility criteria (VH 5.2); 3) alterations (VH 5.5); and 4) demolition (VH 5.6). The changes are designed to have the General Plan policies language be more encompassing and general in nature.
These changes are needed in order to ensure consistency between the General Plan and the Ordinance, with the General Plan outlining City policy and the Ordinance enacting the regulations. The proposed policy revisions reflect current best practices and the City’s adoption of a Historic Resources Inventory discussed later in this r eport. Below are the proposed updates to the policies regarding landmark designation (VH 5.1), eligibility criteria (VH 5.2), alterations (VH 5.5) and demolition (VH 5.6) in underline/strikeout format so that the proposed changes are readily apparent.
General Plan Policy VH 5.1
Proposed Language:
Local Historic Landmarks . [GP] At the time of incorporation, the l Locally significant historic sites or structures that were designated as Landmarks by the County and the City upon its incorporation included: Stow House, Sexton House, Goleta Depot, Barnsdall-Rio Grande Gasoline Station, and the Shrode Produce Company Tomato Packing House. In 2006, locally significant historic sites or structures that were are designated as Places of Historic Merit included the Daniel Hill Adobe, a portion of the Southern Pacific Railroad (engineered cut representing the former site of a portion of the Southern Pacific Railroad), and Bishop Ranch. Stow House, Sexton House, and the Goleta Depot are listed in the National Register of Historic Places . There are no State Historic Landmarks in Goleta.
Table 6 -1 and Figure 6 -2 provide a summary of structures or sites that have been previously listed or are eligible for listing in one of these registers or inventories. The City will maintain a local list of historic resources, the Goleta Historic Resources Inventory, which includes the historic resources referenced in this policy, to ensure that local historic resources are protected and preserved.
Result:
The proposed chan ges update the policy to reflect the designation status of significant buildings and sites at the time of incorporation and adoption of the General Plan, eliminates Table 6-1 and Figure 6-2, and links the General Plan to the Historic Resources Inventory instead of Table 6-1 and Figure 6-2. The elimination of Table 6-1 and Figure 6- 2 will remove an inconsistency that would arise with the adoption of the Historic Resources Inventory by the City Council.
HRG has reviewed the information used to create Table 6-1 and Figure 6 -2 and conducted extensive field surveys to identify the properties proposed to be included in the Goleta Historic Resources Inventory. Many of the structures listed in Table 6-1 and Figure 6-2 have been incorporated into the Goleta Historic Resources Inventory: 1) if they meet the criteria established in the Context Statement; 2) if they had not been modified in the last 15-20 years; and 3) if character defining features were visible from the public right - of-way during the citywide survey.
818
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
Lastly, as part of the Historic Preservation project all of the structures/improvements listed in policy VH 5.1 will either be designated a Goleta Historic Landmark (Barnsdall - Rio Grande Gas Station, Bishop Ranch, Goleta Depot, Hill Adobe, Sexton House, Shrode Packing House, and Stow House), or be placed on an Eligibility List as a Place of Historical Interest (Railroad Cut) , if the Council adopts the Resolution provided as Attachment 3.
General Plan Policy VH 5.2
Proposed Language:
Locally Significant Historic Resources [GP]. Structures or sites, including landscaping, have special historic, aesthetic, or cultural value to Goleta shall be designated as locally significant historic resources. A locally significant historic resource may include those reso urces listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register for Historic Places, State Historic Landmarks, or the Santa Barbara County Landmarks/Places of Historical Merit inventories, as well as resources designated by the City. The City shall establish use the following eligibility criteria including but not limited to age of the structure; exceptional importance in the community; significant contribution from a historical, architectural, social, cultural perspective; representation as a unique architectural style or workmanship; associat ion with an important historical event or person. Eligibility criteria will be used by the City Council when considering a site or structure, including landscaping, for designation as a locally significant historic resource.
a. It exemplifies or reflect special elements of the city’s cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic, architectural, landscape architectural, or natural history. b. It is identified with person or events of local, state or national history. c. It embodies distinctive characteristics of a style, type, period, or method of construction or is an example of the use of indigenous materials or craftsmanship. d. It represents works of a notable builder, designer, architect, or landscape architect. e. It includes a geographically definable area possessing a concentration of historic, prehistoric or scenic properties that are unified aesthetically. f. It has a location with unique physical characteristics, including landscaping, or is a view or vista representi ng an established visual feature of a neighborhood or community.
g. It embodies elements of design, detail, materials, or craftsmanship representing a significant structural, architectural or landscape architectural achievement. h. It reflects significant geogr aphical patterns associated with different eras of settlement and growth.
i. It is one of a few remaining examples possessing distinguishing characteristics of an architectural, landscape architectural, or historical type. j. It includes rare or specimen plant materials associated with a particular period or style of landscape history.
Result:
This change directs the City to establish eligibility criteria as a policy without being overly specific. This change reflects that it is the policy of the City to establish eligibility criteria 819
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
and then have these criteria adopted as regulation. The eligi bility criteria are a key component of the Ordinance and have been incorporated directly into Chapter 17.33.
The list of criteria in the General Plan was used to create the designation criteria in the Ordinance. However, some have been consolidated to align with National and California Register designation criteria thereby providing more clarity for property owners, particularly when environmental review may be triggered.
General Plan Policy VH 5.5
Proposed Language:
Alterations to Historic Resources. [GP] Any proposed alterations to historic resource shall be subject to a Phase 1 and/or Phase 2 historical study . Any proposed alterations to a designated historic resource or property listed in the City’s Historic Resources Inventory deemed acceptable that may affect the historical integrity of a historical site or structure shall respect the character- defining features of the building, and its setting, and maintain architectural consistency with the original site or structure. Such proposals may require the submittal of an historic evaluation from a recognized professional as part of the design review process, from a cultural resource professional that, depending upon the nature of the proposed alternation, may include review by the Historic Preservation Commission or landmarks commission and/or design review Design Review Board prior to approval. To encourage rehabilitation, maintenance, and sensitivity in additions and remodels, the City encourages and shall supports adaptive reuse of structures listed on the Historic Resources Inventory historic sites and structures and may consider allowing for flexibility when applying building code zoning regulations, including use of the California Historic Building Code, in order to facilitate the retention of character -defining features and that retain or promote the maintaining historical significance.
Result:
The proposed language modifies the policy to reflect in general terms what is proposed in the Ordinance while maintaining the emphasis on compatibility, review process, and adaptive reuse.
General Plan Policy VH 5.6
Proposed Language:
Demolition of His toric Structures [GP] The City strives to prevent the demolition of structures listed on the Historic Resources Inventory. If demolition is proposed, the property owner must demonstrate that all efforts have been made to relocate or adaptively reuse the st ructure including but not limited to the submittal of a historic evaluation, a costs analysis, and a structural evaluation of the property justifying the demolition request.
Structures proposed for demolition shall be subject to a Phase 1 and/or Phase 2 historical study. If a structure or site is determined important to the city’s heritage, preservation or relocation shall pursued before demolition. In the event the City determines that adaptive reuse on site preservation or relocation is not feasible, demolition is deemed acceptable, appropriate mitigation and documentation measures must be undertaken by the applicant. the Phase 1 and/or Phase 2 historical study shall identify appropriate mitigation 820
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
measures, which Such measures that may be required of the applicant, include but not be limited to the following:
a. Offering the structure for relocation and p. Providing public notice of the availability of the structure through advertisements or other means. b. Salvage and reuse building elements that have val ue and may be irreplaceable such as cornices, columns, mantels, doors, hardware, and lighting fixtures. c. Prepare written and photographic/ video-graphic documentation of the structure in archival quality format for retention by the City or designated Histo rical Archive before demolition or relocation. The Video- and-photo-document the structure and its setting using archival quality materials.
Result
The proposed language modifies the policy to reflect what is proposed in general terms in the Ordinance wh ile maintaining the emphasis on adaptive reuse, relocation, and documentation if demolition is allowed. It also provides additional language to discourage demolition and encourages adaptive reuse or relocation over demolition and more clearly expresses the City’s position that demolitions are discouraged.
Ordinance (Attachment 2)
Attachment 2 to the staff report is the proposed Ordinance that proposed additions and amendments to Titles 2, 12, and 17 of the Goleta Municipal Code as follows:
1. Chapter 2.16 to add duties, responsibilities, and member makeup of the Historic Preservation Commission
2. Chapter 12.13 to add Section 12.13.030Q to include failure to maintain a historic resource as a nuisance.
3. Chapter 17.33 establishing Historic Preservation regulations, process, and Historic Resources Inventory, etc.
4. Chapter 17.43 establishing Archaeological and Tribal Cultural Resources regulations and review process, etc.
5. Chapter 17.29 regarding Demolitions and Relocations to be reflective of the requirements of Chapter 17.33
6. Chapter 17.50 to update the responsibilities of the City Council, the Design Review Board, the Planning and Environmental Review Director, and to add a Historic Preservation Commission with responsibilities to the list of Review Authorities
7. Chapter 17.73 to add additional terms and definitions to conform with the above new regulations
Chapter 17.33. Historic Preservation
The purpose of Chapter 17.33 is to recognize and preserve historic resources that reflect the social, cultural, histo rical, and architectural heritage of Goleta by establishing procedures and regulation s. As proposed, a building, structure, object, or site is considered an Historic Resource in the City of Goleta , if it: a) is identified as potentially eligible for designation through a historic resources survey or other evaluation conducted by a Qualified Historic Preservation Professional using accepted professional practices and formally adopted for inclusion on the Historic Resources Inventory by the City 821
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
Council; b) is listed in or formally determined eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places or the California Register of Historical Resources; c) is a designated County of Santa Barbara Landmark or County of Santa Barbara Place of Historic Merit; and d) is a designated City of Goleta Historic Landmark or Contributor to a locally designated Historic District.
Further, the proposed ordinance establishes three categories of designations, namely, Historic Landmark, Historic District, and Points of Historical Interest. Any potential Historic Resource, or any property that meets at least one of the criteria for designation , can be nominated for official designation as a local Historic Landmark or Historic District . The category of Points of Historical Interest would recognize buildings, structures, objects, or sites that do not meet the criteria for designation as a Historic Landmark or Historic District, but have particular social, cultural, or historic significance to the community and therefore may receive recognition and consideration in local planning. Designated Historic Landmarks and Contributors to designated Historic Districts are eligible for special protection and incentives that non-designated Historic Resources do not receive.
As provided for in the Ordinance, any property in the City of Goleta listed in the National Register of Historic Places, the California Register of Historical Resources, or as a County of Santa Barbara Landmark or Place of Historic Merit as of January 1, 2021, will be automatically designated a local City of Goleta Historic Landmark as discussed later in this report.
Criteria and Designation Process
Each designation category would have differing criteria based on the nature of the category. The maximum time for the Historic designation process would be 180 days from the date the application was deemed complete.
Historic Landmark
For a Historic Landmark designation, a building, structure, object, or site may be designated as a City of Golet a Historic Landmark , if it is at least 50 years old (the age criteria may be waived and if it can be demonstrated that the potential resource exhibits exceptional importance) and meets one or more of the criteria outlined in Section
17.33.040. Further, the resource must retain sufficient historic integrity to convey its significance. There are seven aspects of integrity 1 defined by the National Park Service:
location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. A proposed Historic Landmark would not need to retain all seven aspects of integrity in order to be eligible for historic designation; however, it must retain those aspects of integrity that convey the reason for its significance.
The designation process is found in Section 17.33.040(B). Nominations for Historic Landmark designation may be initiated by any resident of the City of Goleta. If the person nominating the property is not the property owner, then the City would advise the property
1 The same definition of integrity is used throughout for the designation criteria and will not be defined with each category.
822
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
owner of the nomination request within ten calendar days. Once the application is deemed to be complete, then the City would schedule the nomination for review by the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC). The HPC would then make a recommendation to the City Council as to the merits of the de signation request. The City Council at a notice d public hearing would determine if a property should be designated as a Goleta Historic Landmark.
Historic District
In regard to designating a group of buildings as a Historic District, such b uildings, structures, objects, or sites must relate to each other in a distinguishable way or in a geographically definable area. An area may qualify as a Historic District, if it meets one or more of the eligibility criteria in 17.33.060(A), retains suffi cient historic integrity to convey its significance, and:
1) It possesses a significant concentration, linkage, or continuity of sites, buildings, structures, or objects united historically or aesthetically by plan or physical development; and
2) A minimum of 60% of the sites, buildings, structures, or objects within the proposed historic district contribute to the district’s significance.
A proposed Historic District does not need to retain all seven aspects of integrity in order to be eligible for historic designation; however, it must collectively retain those aspects of integrity that convey the reason for its significance. The designation process is found in Section 17.33.080 (D). Nominations for Historic Landmark designation may be initiated by any reside nt of the City of Goleta. The nomination must include documentation, by letter or petition, that 51% of the property owners within the proposed district support the nomination (Section 17.33.0 60(C)(2). The rest of the nomination process is identical to that of the Historic Landmark category , with the City Council making the determination after receiving a recommendation from the HPC.
Points of Historical Interest
Section 17.33.070 provides the criteria and process for designating a Point of Historical Interest. A building, structure, object, or site can be designated a Point of Historical Interest in the City of Goleta, if it lacks integrity or otherwise does not meet the criteria for designation as a Historic Landmark but it is significant locally for its association with historic events, important persons, or has other cultural or historic importance to the community. The designation of Point of Historical Interest may be approved by the City Council upon the recommendation of the HPC.
A building, structure, object, or site may be designated as a Point of Historical Interest, if it meets at least one of the following criteria:
1) It is the site of a building, structure, or object that no longer exists but was associated with historic events or important persons, or otherwise has significant cultural or historic significance.
823
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
2) It is the site of a historic event which has no distingui shable physical characteristics.
The designation of a Point of Historical Interest is solely honorary and is not listed in the Inventory. A Point of Historical Interest is not considered a Historic Resource under this ordinance or for purposes of CEQA and is therefore not afforded the same protections or incentives as Historic Resources.
Historic Preservation Commission and Review Process
As part of this Ordinance, a Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) would be established to act as an advisory body to the City Council and other Reviewing Authorities on all matters pertaining to historic preservation. The creation of an HPC would implement General Plan Implementation Measure VH-IA-4. The makeup and meeting requirements would be located in Chapter 2.15 of the Goleta Municipal Code and the duties and responsibilities would be located in Section 17.50.080 of the Goleta Municipal Code. The HPC would have five (5) members who have expertise, knowledge, or special interest in historic preservation and/or archaeological/cultural resources or are a member of a local Chumash Tribal group.
It is proposed that t he HPC would be an advisory board to the City Council, Planning Commission, Design Review Board, City Manager, and all City departments on all matters related to historic preservation . The HPC would make recommendations to the City Council regarding the appropriateness of designations, rescissions, amendments to designations, and Mills Act Contract requests . In addition, the HPC would make recommendations to the DRB on the appropriateness of any proposed alterations/ additions to properties listed in the Historic Resources Inventory . The existing DRB process would be followed except those alterations/additions to properties listed in the Historic Resources Inventory would be required to seek a recommendation from the HPC before the matter is reviewed by the DRB.
Once a property is designated as a historic resource, it would be subject to the process, standards and criteria outlined in Section 17.33.080. Alterations that are exempt from review under 17.58 that do not affect identified character -defining features would be exempt from DRB Review. Alterations that could affect character-defining features would be subject to DRB review. All proposed alterations would be required to meet the findings of either Section 17.33.080(C) or (D) depending on the Review Authority.
Amendments, Rescissions, and Demolitions
Section 17.33.050 outlines the process and criteria to remove or change the historic designation of a property. The process is essentially the same as the designation process.
As proposed, it would be up to the City Council, upon recommendation from the HPC, to amend or remove a designation based on meeting certain criteria ( e.g., damage to the structure, new information, etc.).
824
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
In regard to demolition requests for historic resources, such a request would be subject to approval of a Major Conditional Use Permit including California Environmental Quality Act (Section 17.33.090). The impacts of the potential demolition would be analyzed either through a Negative Declaration/Mitigated Negative Declaration or Environmental Impact Report at the property owners’/applicants’ cost. The applicant would be required to provide a cost analysis for the rehabilitation and reuse of the property and a report by a structural engineer on the feasibility of relocation. Further, if the property is more than 50 years old but is not listed on the Historic Resources Inventory, the PER Director may require a historic resources assessment report prepared by a Qualified Preservation Professional to determine whether it should be treated as a historic resource.
Mills Act Incentive and Maintenance of Historic Resource
Section 17.33.110 provides for the use of Mill Act as a tool to encourage preservation of designated historic resources. The Mills Act Property Tax Abatement Program (Mills Act) was enacted in 1972 by the State of California (Government Code Sections 50280-50290) and grants participating l ocal governments the authority to enter into contracts with owners of qualified historic properties, who actively participate in the repair, rehabilitation, restoration, and maintenance of the properties to receive property tax relief . If the City Council agrees to this preservation tool, then owners of properties designated as either a Historic Landmark and/or contributor to a designated Historic District may apply to enter into a Mills Act Contract. Mills Act contracts are typically for a rolling 10-year period. The benefit to the property owner is that they receive a reduction in property taxes in order to properly repair, restore, and maintain the historic resource. Given the potential financial impacts on the City in the reduction in property taxes, the City can determine on an annual basis how many contracts it will accept and can set a financial cap for the program.
Section 17.33.120 outlines the standards necessary to preserve, protect, and perpetuate the elements of the historic fabric unique to historic resources and to prevent the need for demolition or destruction due to neglect of important resources in the City’s history. This portion of the Ordinance requires that historic resources be maintained in good repair and be kept in a watertight condition to preclude decay problems.
In addition to any other Code Compliance penalty the City has , failure to maintain a historic resource as outlined in the Ordinance shall constitute a public nuisance, which, if not addressed, entitles the City to cause the maintenance to be performed at the Owner's expense. The goal of these provisions is to prevent/minimize demolition by neglect.
Lastly, economic hardship has been built into both the Demolition (Section 17.33.0 90) and Maintenance (Section 17.33.1 20) s ections as a potential consideration for such requests.
Chapter 17.43. Cultural Resources
The purpose of Chapter 17.43 is to establish standards for new development that could impact sensitive and protected Archaeological and/or Tribal Cultural Resources (Resources). Specifically, this Chapter is intended to:
825
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
Preserve and protect Archaeological and/or Tribal Cultural Resources Foster awareness, recognition, and stewardship of the City’s Archaeological and/or Tribal Cultural Resources; and
Protect, restore, and enhance significant Archaeological and/or Tribal Cultural Resources.
All new development (ministerial or discretionary) that requires earth-disturbing activities shall be subject to the regulations and reporting requirements.
Assessments and Permit Requirements (17.43.020 and 17.43.030)
The focus on when review of earth -disturbing activities will occur is proposed based on whether the area of disturbance is native soil ( i.e., not subject to previous grading).
Section 17.43.020 (A) outlines the list of activities that would be exempt from the requirements of Chapter 17.43. These include disturbance of four cubic feet or less of native soils, activities that will not disturb native soils (i.e., agricultural operations in areas already used for crop cultivation, city infrastructure that does not go beyond the footprint of the existing facility, etc.), interior alterations to existing structures, emergency projects, or areas that have already had an Archaeological Assessment or Phas e 1 Report prepared and the area has little to no potential to contain subsurface Resources.
As stated above, following the November 8 th Planning Commission meeting, staff has added Section 17.43.020(A) (2)(d) to the ordinance in order to add clarity that minor landscaping and footings could be exempt. The proposed language for
17.43.020(A)(2)(d) is as follows:
Landscaping and footings for fences, patio covers, and similar minor accessory improvements.
The purpose of this addition is to make it clear th at minor ground-disturbing activities in already disturbed area s would be exempt , which the Planning Commission supported .
The proposed addition is shown in redline on page 17 of the Ordinance.
If an activity is not found to be exempt, then the site will need to undergo an Archaeological Assessment by a Qualified professional as provided for in Section
17.43.030. The level of assessment (Preliminary Archaeological Assessment (PAA), a Phase 1 Report or an Extended Phase 1 Report) will based upon the e xisting nature of the site and the judgment of the qualified professional . If the PAA or Phase 1 report determines that the area of proposed earth-disturbing activities has little to no potential to contain subsurface Resources, then a Zone Clearance can b e issued for this aspect of the project . If the PAA or Phase 1 reveals that the area of earth -disturbing activities contains or potentially contains Resources, then the project would be subject to a Minor Conditional Use Permit. If an Extended Phase 1 report has been required, then the project is subject to a Minor Conditional Use Permit as well. Attachment 7 is provided as a visual representation of the process of a decision tree flow chart regarding archaeological and Tribal Cultural Resources. This attachment will become a handout which will be refined prior to implementation.

Development Standards and Native American Communication (17.43.040 and
17.43.050)
Section 17.43.040 outlines the development standards (i.e., stop work if unexpected resources or human burials are encountered, provision of on-site monitors as appropriate, etc.) that would be applied to permits . The purpose of these standards is to provide another layer of protection to subsurface Resources.
As outlined in Section 17. 43.050, t he City shall consult with California Native American tribes in accordance with State law (Public Resources Code § 21080.3.1). In addition, for all properties for which a P AA or Phase I Report is prepared, the City will make these studies available to the Native American Tribal Council groups upon request.
City Projects and additions to the PER Director responsibilities
City projects (including Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects) are developed based on General Plan policies, adopted standards , and are subject to California Environmental Quality Act review. Where the review of City projects differs from private projects is that City projects are not subject to a permit for development in most cases in accordance with Section 17.53.020(X). The only City projects that are required to obtain a zoning permit are those that involve new development (not maintenance) in the Coastal Zone and development in ESHA in the Inland areas . While City projects do not have to obtain a zoning permit, the same public policy and environmental issues associated with a City project are vetted through the City Council.
Just like private development, City projects are exempt only if they do not disturb more than 4 cubic feet of native soils and if earth disturbance is done within the existing footprint of the facility. This could involve maintenance, repair or replacement of existing roadways, stormwater facilities, and buildings, where native soils are not disturbed. However, an exception to this rule exists when t he City project is an emergency project that is undertaken to mitigate the loss of or damage to life, property or essential services after a flood, earthquake, or other disaster pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21060.3.
While not part of Chapter 17.43, Section 17.50.060 will amend the duties of the Planning and Environmental Review Director to include the development of a list of sites with known archaeological, cultural, or pre -historic resource in consultation with the Tribal Chairs of the Barba reño, Coastal, Santa Ynez , and Ventureño Bands of Chumash Indians. This list shall be kept confidential and is not a public record under the Public Records Act. (Government Code Sections 6254(r) and 6254.10). This list will be used by the City to advise permit applicants regarding Resources, as appropriate.
Associated Title 12 and 17 Amendments
In addition to the inclusion of Chapters 17.33 and 17.43 to the Goleta Municipal Code, amendments to other sections are proposed to reflect the requirements set forth in these 827
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
new Chapters and to strive for internal consistency and clarity within Title 12 and 17.
These additional changes are as follows:
1. Revision to Chapter 12.13 to add Section 12.13.030 (Q) to include failure to maintain a historic resource as a nuisance.
2. Revision to Chapter 17.29 regarding Demolition and Relocation provisions. This Chapter has been amended to clarify language regarding process and to ensure compatibility with the demolition provisions in Chapter 17.33.
3. Revision to Chapter 17.50:
a) To include the designation of properties as a Historic Landmark, Historic District, or Point of Historical Interest and approval of Mills Act Contracts as part of the City Council’s role and responsibilities.
b) To specify DRB’s role and responsibilities in reviewing alterations proposed to historic resources.
c) To add roles and responsibilities of the Historic Preservation Commission to the list of Reviewing Authorities
d) To add additional responsibilities to the Di rector of Planning and Environmental Review regarding the implementation of the Historic Preservation and Archaeological and Tribal Cultural Resources as noted above.
4. Revisions to Chapter 17.73 to add terms and definitions associated with Historic Preservation and Archaeological and Tribal Cultural Resources as used within Chapters 17.33. and 17.43.
Context Statement, Historic Resources Inventory, and Historic Landmarks (Attachment 3)
Attachment 3 is the Council Resolution that:
Adopts the Context Statement (Exhibit A).
Designates seven properties as Goleta Historic Landmarks; and Establishes the Historic Resources Inventory.
Context Statement
As the City Council is aware, the City spent more than two years on the development of the Historic Context Statement, which covers the built environment (Historic Resources), archaeological resources (Cultural Resources), and trees a nd landscapes. The Archaeological Resource Chapter was developed in conjunction with the Barbareño Band of Chumash Indians (BBCI), whose words grace the document. The BBCI thoughts and stories set the tone for the significance of the land and the need to be mindful of cultural resources that may not be readily visible and have been overlooked in the past. The Context Statement has been used as the guiding document in the preparation of the Historic Resources Inventory and the proposed regulations. The eligibility criteria found in each of the Sections establishing designation status (please refer to Sections 828
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
17.33.070, 17.33.080, 17.33.100 and 17.33.110) have been incorporated into Appendix A of the Context Statement.
Historic Resources Inventory
Through the review process with the Planning Commission , the Historic Resources Inventory has been refined to comprise 29 properties – seven of which have already been designated by the County of Santa Barbara or are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. With this refinement, the initial Historic Resources Inventory focuses on the most representative properties of the time periods and/or architectural styles identified in the Context Statement.
Some of the properties that were removed from the draft Historic Resources Inventory were not fully visible from the public right-of-way, so that a complete assessment of their character-defining features was not able to be made; others do not represent unique or excellent examples of their time period and some properties have been altered. It should be noted that removal from the initial Historic Resources Inventory would not preclude a property from being added to the Inventory in the future.
It is proposed that the existing properties that were already listed in the National Register of Historic Places or the California Register of Historical Resources or were pre viously designated by the County of Santa Barbara as of January 1, 2021, be automatically designated as a City Landmark. These buildings are:
1. Barnsdall-Rio Grande Gasoline Station, located at 7825 Hollister Avenue
2. Bishop Ranch, located at 96 Glen Annie Road
3. Daniel Hill Adobe, located at 33 S. La Patera Road
4. Goleta Depot, located at 300 N. Los Carneros Road
5. Sexton House, located at 5490 Hollister Avenue
6. Shrode Produce Packing House, located at 265 La Patera (partially demolished)
7. Stow House, located at 304 N. Los Carneros Road
All other individual properties that are identified as potentially eligible for designation would have to undergo the designation process to be formally designated as a landmark if/when an application for such designation is submi tted to the City for consideration .
Properties on the Historic Resources Inventory that have not been formally designated would not be eligible for preservation incentives (i.e., Mills Act property tax reduction) outlined in the Chapter 17.33, until such time as they are designated. These properties/structures would, however, be subject to other review processes in 17.33 and California Environmental Quality Act review, if changes were proposed. For the ease of the public’s and Commissioners’ review, Attachment 5 is the proposed initial City of Goleta Historic Resources Inventory list.
Most of the properties that are either proposed to be recognized as a Goleta Landmark or are eligible to be recognized as such are already identified as Historic Resources in Table 6-1 of the City of Goleta General Plan. There are a few additional properties based on the length of time that has passed or represent architectural style s that were not 829
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
identified 15 years ago when the General Plan was under development. Lastly, Attachment 6 is a draft of the list of Points of Historical Interest for consideration.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT REVIEW
Attachment 1 - General Plan Amendment
The proposed GPA project is categorically exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000 et seq.; “CEQA”) and CEQA Guidelines (14 Cal. Code Regs. §§ 15000 et seq.). Specifically, the project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to the following CEQA Guidelines:
No possibility of significant effect [Section 15061(b)(3)] Not a project [Section 15378]
It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the General Plan Amendment would have potential for causing a significant effect on the environment given the nature of the project. Further the GPA would not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment as the project revises the language of four existing General Plan policies, does not change the intent of the policies that are the subject of this amendment, and will not result in new development.
The City will continue to recognize the structures and sites listed in General Plan policy VH 5.1. as important historical resources along with those structures formally placed on the City’s Historic Resources Inventory. In addition, the City will continue to have policies regarding the establishment of eligibility criteria (VH 5.2), process and considerations for alteration proposals to historic resources (VH 5.5.), and process and range of alternatives and mitigations associated with demolition requests (VH 5.6) . Any subsequent requests that would be affected by these Historic Resources policies would be subject to their own individual CEQA analysis.
Attachments 2 and 3 – Ordinance and the Context Statement Resolution
Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21 083.3 and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15183, projects that are consistent with the development density of existing zoning, community plan, or General Plan policies for which an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was certif ied, shall be exempt from additional CEQA analysis except as may be necessary to determine whether there are project-specific significant effects that are peculiar to the project or site that would otherwise require additional CEQA review. There is no new substantial information indicating that the impacts of the project will be more severe than described in the General Plan EIR when the Visual and Historic Resources Element was adopted and there are no cumulative or off-site impacts from the proposed proje ct that were not addressed in the General Plan EIR. As such, the Ordinance is exempt from further CEQA review.
In addition, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15061(b)(3) and 15378(b)(5), the proposed Ordinance does not qualify as a "project" for the pu rposes of CEQA because 830
Meeting Date: December 7, 2021
the Ordinance does not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
The amendments proposed do not, by themselves, have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. Any subsequent development p roject will be separately examined in accordance with CEQA. As such, the adoption of the documents related to the Historic Preservation and Cultural Resource Ordinance are exempt from CEQA review.
A draft of the proposed Notice of Exemption is provided as Attachment 8.
FISCAL IMPACTS:
As of November 9, 2021, $159,206 has been spent of the $201,350 appropriation associated with this project (Account Number 101 -40-4100-51209). There is no new appropriation needed to complete this project.
PUBLIC NOTICE
Notice of this public hearing has been provided in the following manner:
An advertisement was published in the Santa Barbara Independent in both English and Spanish on November 24, 2021.
On November 23, 2021, mailed notice was provided to property owners whose property could be placed on the Historic Resources Inventory and to those who have requested mailing for Citywide projects.
On November 23, 2021, a) Gov Delivery email notice was sent to approximately 8600 emails addresses on the News and Announcements, City Council meetings, Historic Preservation, Interested Parties, and Spanish lists; and b) and the information was shared on various social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, etc.).
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives are 1) continue the matter for additional information/revision. If additional work is needed, an additional budget allocation may be needed ; 2) not adopt the proposed Ordinance and General Plan Amendment; or 3) approve the General Plan Amendment and not adopt the Ordinance.

Environmental Review
Attn: Lisa Prasse
Date: January 12, 2022
This memo presents the research conducted by the survey team into the property at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road (shown in the Location Map in Figure 1). The property at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road was not included on the list of historic resources prepared as part of the City of Goleta General Plan, it has not been formally evaluated as a potential historic resource, and it was not recognized as a County of Santa Barbara Landmark or Place of Historic Merit. The property was part of the “ Windshield Survey of Farm Properties:
Unincorporated Areas of Goleta Valley,” conducted in 2003, as “a visible example of existing working barns and farmhouses in this part of the Goleta Valley that date to the late 19th and early 20th centuries.”1 However, that survey did not formally evaluate properties for potential eligibility for historic designation, and no California Historical Resources Status Codes were assigned. In addition, the survey report notes:
The top twenty percent of the surveyed resources that retain integrity of location, design, and craftsmanship and possess distinguishing characteristics of an architectural and historical type of farming traditions throughout the unincorporated area of the Goleta Valley are divided into two groups. The first group is composed of farm buildings that are located on five -to-ten a cre parcels within the urban boundary of the survey area. The second group contains the larger co mmercial ranches that lie in the rural agriculturally zoned areas. 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road was not included in the list of the top twenty percent of surveyed resources by that study.

3 SURVEY METHODOLOGY
At the outset of the historic resources survey project, the survey team reviewed available data from previous studies of the area, including properties on the Santa Barbara County Compiled List that are now within the City of Goleta; any properties within the City that are listed on the State of California Historic Resources Inventory (now referred to as the Built Environment Resources Directory or BERD);2 the list of properties identified as part of the development of the Goleta General Plan; and other properties identified by the community or through research for the Historic Context Statement. HRG then conducted a reconnaissance (or windshield) survey of the entire city in order to review all of the previously identified properties and to identify additional properties, neighborhoods, and features that may be historically significant. Following the reconnaissance survey, additional research and analysis was conducted on neighborhoods and individual properties in order to make recommendations for potentially eligible properties; the research methodology is outlined below.
All fieldwork was conducted from the public right-of-way. Properties were evaluated under criteria for designation according to the contexts, themes, and eligibility standards outlined in the City of Goleta Historic Context Statement.
Research
Property-specific research was conducted on pr operties identified as potentially eligible through the develop ment of the historic context statement, during the reconnaissance/windshield study for the survey, or based on recommendations received during community outreach efforts. This property-specific research supplemented research efforts undertaken during the development of the context statement, in ord er to confirm construction dates (when possible), identify significant architects and builders, identify original or potentially significant owners, and confirm site history and alterations.
Approximate construction dates were determined using information from historic aerial
2 The California Office of Historic Preservation (OHP) maintains the Built Environment Resource Directory (“BERD”), formerly referred to as the Historical Resources Inventory (HRI), a database of previously evaluated resources throughout the state. The BERD contains information only for cultural resources that have been processed through OHP. This includes resources reviewed for eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places and the California Historical Landmarks programs through federal and state environmental compliance laws, and resources nominated under federal and state registration programs. The BERD includes 55 resources with addresses noted as being located in the City of Goleta. Upon closer examination, only three entries are in fact located within the boundaries of the City of Goleta. The three entries within City limits are the Stow House (304 Los Carneros Rd), the Goleta Depot (300 Los Carneros Rd), and the Public Storage facility (5425 Overpass Rd). The Stow House and the Goleta Depot are listed with status code 1S, indicating tha t they are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The Public Storage facility is listed with a 6Y, indicating that it was formally evaluated for the National Register of Historic Places through a Section 106 process and found ineligible. The Sexton House and its associated features are listed in the BERD as located in Santa Barbara, with a status code 1D, indicating that the property is listed as a multiple -property resource in the National Register of Historic Places. Several features are also listed with the status code 6X, indicating that they were determined ineligible for the National Register by the Keeper of the National Register.

5 DEVELOPMENT HISTORY
Ellwood Ranch
The property at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road is located at the northwest boundary of the City of Goleta. The property was part of Rancho Los Dos Pueblos, granted to Goleta pioneer Nicolas Den in 1842. He used the property as a cattle ranch until his death in 1862.
After his death, Den’s ranch was subdivided into smaller parcels for his heirs, including his wife, Rosa, and each of their ten children. 3 The portions of the ranch set aside for Den's children were to be held in trust until each child came of age.
In the late 1860s, Charles E. Huse, the executor of Nicolas Den’s estate, arranged for the sale of several tracts of land in the former Den estate. Ellwood Cooper, a Goleta pioneer known for introducing exotic flora to the area, became convinced that Santa Barbara olive oil could compete commercially with Italian oil, and in 1869, purchased 2,000 acres of the former Den estate, creating a ranch seven-eighths of a mile wide, running along the coast between Winchester and Glen Annie canyons.
4 Cooper’s beach frontage extended from
Kate Den Bell’s Las Armas Ranch (site of the futur e Ellwood oil strike) to Alfonso Den’s ranch at Coal Oil Point (now the Devereux Ranch School campus) on the east.”5 He named it Ellwood Ranch.
Cooper intended for his family to live in Santa Barbara while he traveled to and from his ranch daily. However, after a year of traveling the twelve- mile round trip on horseback, Cooper became frustrated with this arrangement, and built a small redwood board and batten house for overnight use. His wife, Sarah, moved with him, and additions were made to the house as needed. The house became the focus of a complex of barns, machine shops, an olive mill, and other outbuildings, most of which were removed by subsequent owners.6 Cooper also planted seven different orchards of olive trees, as well as English walnuts, wheat, and Japanese persimmons.7
In the mid-1870s, Cooper’s claim to former Den lands was contested. The portion of the Den estate on which Ellwood Ranch was located had been held in trust for a Den heir who had not yet come of age in 1869, when Cooper purchased the land. Because the sale went against Den’s will, the Santa Barbara Probate Court did not approve the sale. After initially fighting the lawsuit, Cooper settled with the Dens, surrendering all of his property west of Goleta and south of Hollister Avenue. Cooper retained the portions of the ranch comprising

6 160 acres of eucalyptus seedlings; his persimmon, olive, and walnut orchards; his olive mill; his residence; and the other buildings on the property.8 In 1912, Ellwood Cooper sold Ellwood Ranch to Major Charles J.M. McGill -Crichton and Francis H. Greene.9 On January 25, 1914, a “brief but devastating flood” caused extensive damage to the ranch, obliterating the “valuable orchard of Japanese persimmons,” and “Cooper’s historic olive orchards, an irrigation system, the engine house, a fine graded road […] and a total of fifteen private bridges.” 10 Greene and Crichton retained joint ownership of the property until 1915, when Crichton was killed while fighting in World War I. In 1920, Greene died of pneumonia.
In 1921, Crichton’s and Greene’s wives sold Ellwood Ranch to Joseph Archambault and J.E.
Doty at public auction. 11 The partnership lasted until approximately 1927, when Archambault left the partnership . By 1939, the property was home to Ellwood Ranch, Ellwood Dairies, and Bob & Curl Salon. 12 The ranch and dairy operations, run by brothers Frank, Lawrence, Russell, and Fred Doty, employed numerous laborers, many of whom lived on the property with their spouses.13
In 1949, “sparks from a brush fire […] destroyed the old ‘boarding house’ on the Ellwood ranch.”14 In 1961, a 453-acre tract of Ellwood Ranch was sold in to Roy Eaton, Jack Schwartz, Herbert H. Braun, Walker-Built Homes, Inc.15 Ellwood Ranch remained the property of the Doty family into the 21st century.
290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road
At an unknown date, the parcel now known as 290 /295 Ellwood Canyon Road w as subdivided from the main Ellwood Ranch property.16 The parcel comprises 23.44 acres. As of 2021, 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road contains the built resources listed below; dates are based on available documentation:

The property also contains numerous temporary structures (greenhouses and sheds), as well as several cultivated fields. There are also numerous mature trees and shrubs, including a gum tree known locally as the “Ellwood Queen,” believed to have been planted by Ellwood Cooper in 1887.
17 No original building permits or any subsequent permits were found for any building on the property. As a result, approximate construction dates listed above are based on available historic aerial photographs of the property. The barn on the property may have been constructed in the 19
th century by Ellwood Cooper;18 however, no evidence has been found to substantiate that claim.
The metal outbuilding at 295 Ellwood Canyon Road may have been used as Indio Farms in 1993 by Gregg Carlile and Kenyon Fink. N o additional information about the business was found; it does not appear to be in operation at the property.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Additional information, including a site visit to view existing conditions on the property, would be necessary to complete an assessment of the property at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road. More in-depth research into the property’s ownership history and the subdivision of this parcel is necessary to determine the property’s potential historical significance and its historic integrity. Based on the survey methodology, HRG recommends that 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road remain on the Study List pending additional information about the property’s association with Ellwood Cooper and its historic integrity.

1 Hello Lisa,
We have discussed it and have come to the decision that we do not want our church – St Raphael at 5444 Hollister Ave – to be designated as a Historic Resource. Thank you for your assistance and explanation of the process. I have copied the City Clerks’ office on the email so it can be entered into the public record.
Best,
Virginia Dargen
