SUBJECT: Consider Adding 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road to the Historic Resources Inventory and Clarifying the Designated Historical Features at Bishop Ranch, Located at 96 Glen Annie Road

RECOMMENDATION:

After considering the evidence presented during the public hearing:

Adopt City Council Resolution No. 22- ____, entitled “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Goleta, California, Amending the Historic Resources Inventory to Add APN 079-121-014 (290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road) and to Clarify the Historical Features Designated at Bishop Ranch (96 Glen Annie Road, APN 077-020-045).”

BACKGROUND:

Note: This action applies, in part, to a property referred to as 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road. The Assessor’s Office lists the address of the property as 290 Ellwood Canyon Road, while the mailbox for the property shows 295 Ellwood Canyon Road; hence, both addresses are used herein.

On April 5, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution Numbers 22-09 and 22-10 and, on April 19, 2022, the City Council conducted the second reading of Ordinance 22-05. These actions enacted the Historic Preservation and Archaeological and Tribal Cultural regulations, adopt ed the Context Statement, and establish ed a Historic R esources Inventory (HRI) for the City of Goleta . The HRI currently lists 29 properties as historic resources.

With the assistance of the City’s consultant, Historic Resources Group (H RG), the HRI was the product of the following efforts:

 Review of properties located within Goleta considered to have historical significance, including properties identified:
 On Santa Barbara County’s Historic List.
1 Meeting Date: June 21, 2022

 On the State of California Historic Resources Inventory (now referred to as the Built Environment Resources Directory or BERD).
 In the City of Goleta’s General Plan as having been identified as historic.  By the community or through research for the Historic Context Statement.  Performance of a reconnaissance survey of the entire city to review all of the previously identified properties and to identify additional properties, neighborhoods, and features that may be historically significant. All field work was performed from the public right-of-way.
 Performance of additional research and analysis on neighborhoods and individual properties in order to make preliminary recommendations for potentially eligible properties.
 Evaluation of properties under criteria for designation according to the con texts, themes, and eligibility standards outlined in the City of Goleta Historic Context Statement.
 Conducting additional property-specific research on properties identified as potentially eligible through the development of the Historic Context Statement, during the reconnaissance/windshield study for the survey, or based on recommendations received during community outreach efforts. The property -specific research supplemented efforts to confirm construction dates (when possible), identify significant architects and buildings, identify original or potentially significant owners, and confirm site history and alterations.

Approximate construction dates were determined using information from historic aerial photographs, the 1930 Sanborn Fire Insurance map of Goleta, planning permits, and visual observation. In all cases, approximate construction dates were based on the best available information.
 Revision of the preliminary recommendations based on additional research, input from the community and property owners, and feedback from the Planning Commission.

Research sources include:
 Planning permits (as available from the Planning Department; many properties did not have permits on file with the City and building permits were not available).  Historic aerial photographs.
 Search of local newspapers for key developments, owners, archit ects, and other historic personages.
 Archival research at local repositories.
 Online and manual search of Goleta city directories up to 1970, as available. This primarily consisted of business directories housed in Special Collections at UCSB.

DISCUSSION:

290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road

In December 2021, the community become aware of a pending change of ownership of the above property at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road and interest was expressed regarding the property’s historic status along with a large Eucalyptus tree present on the site known as the “Ellwood Queen .” Given this interest, staff directed HRG to update its research on this property. HRG conducted an additional assessment of the property, and a 54-page report was provided as Attachment 11 to the April 5, 2022, Council staff report.

At the April 5, 2022, meeting, the City Council expressed interest in having this property added to the HRI , based on the information contained with in the report. The Council directed staff and HRG to return as soon as possible with a potential listing request, after additional research was conducted, apprising the property owner of the potential listing, and providing formal notice prior to the meeting. These steps have been taken and HRG has updated the information within the assessment report, which is provided as Exhibit 1 to Attachment 1.

Below is an excerpt from Exhibit 1 to Attachment 1 (without the footnotes) regarding the history of the property and HRG’s recommendation regarding its inclusion in the Historic Resources Inventory.

The property at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road was part of Rancho Los Dos Pueblos, granted to Goleta pioneer Nicolas Den in 1842. Den 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. 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 Barba ra 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. 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 redwoo d 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. Cooper also planted seven different orchards of olive trees, as well as English walnuts, wheat, and Japanese persimmons. 3 Meeting Date: June 21, 2022

In the mid-1870s, Cooper’s claim to former Den lands was contested. The portion of the Den estate on which Ellwoo d 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 160 acres of eucalyptus seedlings; his persimmon, olive, and walnut orchards; his oli ve mill; his residence; and the other buildings on the property.

In 1912, Ellwood Cooper sold Ellwood Ranch to Major Charles J.M. McGill- Crichton and Francis H. Greene. On January 25, 1914, a “brief but devastating flood” caused extensive damage to the ran ch, 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.” 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. The partnership lasted unt il approximately 1927, when Archambault left the partnership. By 1939, the property was home to Ellwood Ranch, Ellwood Dairies, and Bob & Curl Salon. 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.

In 1949, “sparks from a brush fire […] destroyed the old ‘boarding house’ on the Ellwood ranch.” In 1961, a 453-acre tract of Ellwood Ranch was sold to Roy Eaton, Jack Schwartz, Herbert H. Braun, Walker-Built Homes, Inc.

Ellwood Ranch remained the property of the Doty family into the 21 st century.

At an unknown date, the parcel now known as 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road was subdivided from the main Ellwood Ranch property. The parcel comprises 23.44 acres. As of 2021, 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road contains the built resources identified from aerials listed below; dates are based on available documentation:
 Barn (constructed prior to 1928).
 Single-family residence (constructed prior to 1938).
 Metal outbuilding (constructed prior to 1928).
 Metal outbuilding (constructed c. 1995).
 Metal outbuilding (constructed prior to 1938).
4 Meeting Date: June 21, 2022

 Metal outbuilding (constructed c. 1955); and
 Metal outbuilding (constructed c. 1955).

The property also contains numerous te mporary 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.

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 19th century by Ellwood Cooper; 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. No additional information about the business was found; it does not appear to be in operation at the property.

Since the April 5th and April 19th meetings, HRG staff has been able to do more research regarding the property, following the survey methodology noted above. While HRG was not able to access the site, HRG staff has been able to corroborate information and conduct more in-depth research, which is summarized in Exhibit 1 to Attachment 1. HRG has determined that three features found on the site, namely , the Ellwo od Queen Eucalyptus tree, the 1912 Residence and 1912 Barn have historical significance . This determination is based on the association of these features with notable early Goleta resident Ellwood Cooper and on their status as rare remnant features repres enting the early agricultural development of Goleta.

The necessary findings to add this property to the Historic Resources Inventory are provided in Section 3 of the Attached Resolution.

Bishop Ranch
Since Council adoption of Resolution 22 -10, adopting the Historic Resources Inventory and designating seven properties as Landmarks, staff has determined that it is necessary to clarify the designated historical features at Bishop Ranch . As stated in Section

17.33.040(C):

Automatic Designations of Landmarks: Any property located in the City listed in the National Register of Historic Places, the California Register of Historical Places, or as a County of Santa Barbara Historic Landmark or County of Santa Barbara Place of Historic Merit as of January 1, 2021, shall be automatically designated a City Historic Landmark.

When the County designated Bishop Ranch as a Place of Historic Merit, it identified four features on the Bishop Ranch property. The County designated the one-story bungalow, adjacent sandstone arbor, Red Gum tree northeast of the dwelling, and surrounding 5 Meeting Date: June 21, 2022

specimen trees as historically significant features. To be consistent with the previous County designation, Section 4 of the attached Resolution clarifies that the action taken by the City Council on April 5, 2022, designated just those features as the historic resources on the property and not the entirety of the site.

FISCAL IMPACTS:

The costs associated with the research done by HRG since April 2022 are included in the Historic Preservation and Archaeological and Tribal Cultural Ordinance project’s existing budget. As of May 23, 2022, $ 176,700 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.

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT

Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21083.3 and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guideline s 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 certified , 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 project that were not addressed in the General Plan EIR. As such, Ordinance 22-05 adopted on April 19, 2022, which establishes the City’s process and criteria for adding properties to the HRI, and specific Historical designations, was found to be exempt from further CEQA review.

Further, p ursuant to CEQA Guidelines §150 61(b)(3) and §15378(b)(5), the proposed addition of 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road to the Historic Resources Inventory and the clarifying findings relative to 96 Glen Annie Road regarding which on-site features were designated on April 19, 2022, does not qualify as a "project" for the purposes of CEQA because the adding properties to the HRI does not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. The listing proposed does not, by itself, has the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. Any subsequent development project will be separately examined in accordance with CEQA. As such, the action to add the subject property to the HRI is exempt from CEQA review.

NOTICE

On June 9, 2022, notice of this public hearing was pu blished in the Santa Barbara Independent. In addition, notice of this matter was sent via first class mail and by email to the property owners and representatives of 29 0/295 Ellwood Canyon Road and 96 Glen Annie Road (Bishop Ranch) on June 6, 2022.

Prior to June 6, 2022, staff emailed the property owner of 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road on April 7th, April 20th, and April 26th, advising them that the property was being considered 6 Meeting Date: June 21, 2022

for inclusion on the HRI, requesting permission for HRG to visit the site , and offering to meet to discuss the Historic Preservation and Archaeological and Tribal Cultural regulations. On April 26 th, the property owner responded : “that they would pass at this time.”

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council could continue this matter f or additional discussion and consideration, or the City Council could choose not to adopt the Resolution, thereby not adding 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road to the HRI and not making the clarification regarding the historical features at Bishop Ranch.

SECTION 2. Environmental Assessment

Pursuant to Public Reso urces Co de Secti on 210 83.3 and Calif ornia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guideline s Sec tion 1518 3, projects that are consistent with the development density o f existing zoning, co mmunity plan, or General Plan policies , for which a n Environmental Impact R eport (EI R) was certified, shall be exempt from additional CEQA analys is, except as ma y be necessary to determine whether t here are proj ect-specific significant effects that are peculiar to the proj ect or site that would otherwise r equire additional CEQA review. There is no new substantial information indicating that the impa cts of the project w ill be mo re severe than describe d in the Gene ral Plan E IR when the Visual and Historic Resources Element was adopted and there are no cumulative or off -site impacts from t he proposed p roject that were not addr essed in the General Plan EIR. As such, Ordinance 22-05 adopted on April 19 , 2022, which establishes the City’s process and criteria for adding properties to the HRI, and specific Historic al designations, was fou nd to be exempt from furth er CE QA review.

Further, p ursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15061(b)(3) and §15378(b)(5), the proposed addition of 290 (295) Ellwood Canyon Road to the Historic R esources Inventory and the adoption of clarifying findings relative to 96 Glen Annie Road regarding which on-site fea tures were designated on April 19, 2022, do not qualify as a "project" for the purposes of CEQA because the adding of properties to the HRI does not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. The listing proposed does not, by itself, has the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. Any subsequen t de velopment project wil l be se parately examined in accordance with CEQA. As such, the action to add the subject property to the HRI is exempt from CEQA review.

SECTION 3. Findings to Add APN 073-121-014 ( 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road) to the Historic Resources Inventory (Sections 17.33.020)

The property located at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road has been identified as a historic resource as part of the Citywid e Historic Resource Survey conducted using accepted professional practices by the Qualified Preservation Professionals at Historic Resources Group. The “Ellwood Queen” eucalyptus tree and t he residence and barn constructed in 1912 have been identified as historically significant as rare remnant features representing the early agricultural development in Goleta. 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road , c omposed of the Ellwood Queen tree, the 1912 residence, a nd the 1912 barn , are rare remaining examples of Goleta’s earl y agricultural history, with built resources dating from the early 20 th century. Therefore, in accordance with Section 17.33.020(A), the three identified features of the property meet the criter ia established by the Ci ty of Goleta to be placed on Goleta’s Historic Resources Inventory.

SECTION 4. Findings that clarify the historic significan ce of 96 Glen Annie Road (Bishop Ranch) , to be placed on the Historic Resou rces Inventory, and to designate certain elemen ts found on the property as a Goleta Landmark

A. The Bishop Ranch located at 96 Glen Annie Road has been identified as a historic resource as part of the Citywide Historic Resource Survey conducted using accepted professional practic es by the Qualified Pres ervation Professionals at Historic Reso urces Gro up. Further, Bishop Ranch was previously desig nated as a Place of Historic Merit by the County of Santa Barbara prior to January 1, 2021. The County designated the one-story bungalow, adjacent sandstone arbor, Red Gum tree northeast of the dwelling, and surrounding specimen trees as historically significant features. Therefore, in accordance with Section 17.33.020(A), the se four designated features of the property meet the criteria esta blished by the City of G oleta to be placed on Goleta’s Historic Resources Inventory.

B. Established around 1 890, the Bishop Ranch property , at approximately 132 years old , exceeds the minimum 50 -year threshold in accordance with Section 17.33.040(A)(1).

C. The Bishop Ranch property overall represents the largest remaining t ract of former agricultural land in the City of Goleta. Further, this parcel is a remnant of the Rancho Los Dos Pueblos land grant awarded to Nic olas Den. It is an early and rare extant example of Goleta's formerly extensive agricultural lands and illustra tes Golet a’s early history of cattle ranchin g and agriculture . The property is also associated with early Goleta notables, including Colonel William Hollister. The one-story bungalow, adjacent sandstone arbor, Red Gum tree northeast of the dwelling, and su rrounding specimen trees on Bishop Ranch were previously designated by the County of Santa Barbara ; therefore, these four features are eligible for automatic local designation. For these reasons, the four previously designated features of the property meet the findings stated in Sections 17.33.040(A)(2)(a) and (b) and 17.33.040(C).

SECTION 5. Actions

The City Council takes the following actions:

A. Based on the information provided in E xhibit 1 to this Resolution and the finding of Section 3 above, a dds the three identified fea tures namely the “Ellwood Queen ” Eucalyptus tree, the 1912 residence, and the 1912 barn located on the property located at 290 (295) Ellwood Canyon Road (APN 079-121-014) to the Historic Resour ces Inventory and adopts the associated Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) form provided as Exhibit 2.

B. Adopts the findings of Section 4 above , clarifying that the action taken on April 19, 2022, relative to the Bishop Ranch property located at 96 Glen Annie Road (AP N 077 -020-045) added only the specified historically significant features, namely, the one-story bungalow, adjacent sandstone arbor, Red Gum tree northeast of the dwelling , and surrounding specimen trees , to the Historic Resources Inventory and these features were designated as a Goleta Landmark.

C. Directs staff to file the Notice of Exemption (Exhibit 3) within five (5) business days.

SECTION 6. Reliance on Record

Each and every one of the f indings and d eterminations in this R esolution is based on the competent and substantial evidence, bot h oral and written, contained in the enti re record relating to the Project. The findings and determinations constitute the independent findings and determinations of the City Council in all r espects and a re fully and completely supported by su bstantial evidence in the record as a whole.

SECTION 7. Limitations

The City Council’s analysis and evaluation of t he P roject is based on the be st information curren tly available. It is in evitable th at in evaluat ing a proj ect t hat absolute and perfect knowledge of all possibl e aspects of the proj ect will no t exist. One of the major limitations on analysis of the P roject is the City Council’s lack of knowledge of future events. In all instances, best efforts have been made to form accurate assumptions. Somewhat related to this are the limitations on the City’s ability to solve what are in effect regional, state, and national problems and issues. The city m ust work within the political framewo rk within w hich it exist s and with the limitations inherent in that framework.

290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road, Goleta

HISTORIC RESOURCES GROUP
1 To: City of Goleta, Planning and
Environmental Review
Attn: Lisa Prasse
Date: January 12, 2022; rev. April 18, 2022

This memo presents 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 commercial 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.

290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road, Goleta

HISTORIC RESOURCES GROUP
2 290/295 Ellwood C anyon Road was reviewed as part of the current C itywide Historic Resources Survey. Based on available documentation, visibility from the public right-of-way, and feedback from the Planning Commission on the preliminary Historic Resources Inventory (HRI), this property was not recommended for inclusion on the inaugural HRI.

However, based on its potential association with Ellwood Cooper and other early pioneers, and its association with early agricultural development in Goleta, the City requested additional research and evaluation be undertaken in order to determine whether the property meets the eligibility criteria for inclusion on the HRI. As a result of the additional research and analysis, the residence, barn, and “Ellwood Queen” eucalyptus tree on the property appear to meet criteria for listing in the HRI for their association with early agricultural development in Goleta.

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 Califo rnia Historic Resources Inventory (now referred to as the Built Environment Resources Directory or BERD);
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 properties identified as potentially eligible through the development 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 order to confirm construction dates (when possible), identify significant architects and builders , identify original or potentially significant owners, and confirm site history and alterations. 17 MEMO

3 Approximate construction dates were determined using information from historic aerial photographs, the 1930 Sanborn Fire Insurance map of Goleta, planning permits, and visual observation. In all cases, approximate construction dates were based on the best available information.

Research sources include:
• Planning permits (as available from the Planning Department; many properties did not have permits on file with the City, and building permits were not available). • Historic aerial photographs.
• Search of local newspapers for key developments, owners, architects, and other historic personages.
• Archival research at local repositories
• Online and manual search of G oleta city directories up to 1970, as available. This primarily consisted of business directories housed in Special Collections at UCSB.

Additional research conducted for this memo included:
• Search of newspapers for information regarding the purchase, sale, or development of the property; and
• Additional archival research at the following local repositories:
o Goleta Valley Historical Society;
o UCSB Special Collections; and
o County of Santa Barbara Hall of Records.

7 HISTORIC OVERVIEW
Rancho Los Dos Pueblos
The property at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road is located at the northwest boundary of the City of Goleta. The property was part of the 15,534-acre Rancho Los Dos Pueblos, granted to Goleta pioneer Nicolas Den (1812-1862) in 1842; h e used the property as a cattle ranch until his death. 4 In accordance with Den’s will, Rancho Los Dos Pueblos was subdivided into smaller parcels for his heirs, including his wife, Rosa, and each of their ten children.5 The portions of the ranch set aside for Den's children w ere to be held in trust until each child came of age. The age of majority is defined as 21 in Den’s will, but his children could collect their inheritance if they married before the of 18 with the consent of their guardians, or if they married after the age of 18 with or without their guardians’ consent.6
Ellwood Ranch
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 (1829-1918), 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 between 1869 and 1871, purchased over 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.7 Cooper’s beach frontage “extended from Kate Den Bell’s Las Armas Ranch (site of the future Ellwood oil strike) to Alfonso Den’s ranch at Coal Oil Point (now the Devereux Ranch School campus) on the east.”
8 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

8 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.9 Most of these buildings were removed by subsequent owners or were destroyed by natural disasters. According to archival information at the Goleta Valley Historical Society, Cooper’s residence was removed from the property in the 1920s. Cooper also planted seven different orchards of olive trees, as well as English walnuts, wheat, and Japanese persimmons.10
In the mid-1870s, Cooper’s claim to Ellwood Ranch was contested. The portion of the Den estate on which the ranch was located had been held in trust for Emanuel Den (1849- 1923), who had not yet come of age when Cooper entered into the contract to purchase 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 in 1886, surrendering all of his property west of Goleta and south of Hollister Avenue. Cooper retained the portions of the ranch compr ising 160 acres of eucalyptus seedlings; his persimmon, olive, and walnut orchards; his olive mill; his residence; and the other buildings on the property.
11 In 1912, Ellwood Cooper sold Ellwood Ranch to Major Charles J.M. McGill-Crichton. That same year, the barn and residence that are extant on the property today were constructed.12 Upon taking ownership of the property, Crichton converted the ranch to produce lemons and walnuts.13 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.”
14 Crichton retained ownership of the property until 1915, when he was killed while fighting in World War I.15
In 1921, Joseph Archambeault (1858-1936) and J.E. Doty (1872-1925) purchased Ellwood Ranch from Crichton’s estate at public auction.16 After J.E. Doty died in 1925, his brothers,

9 Lawrence A., Russel E., and Fran cis G. (Frank) took over his half of the partnership . The Doty brothers’ partnership with Archambeault lasted until 1929, when Archambeault sold them his interest in the property, with the exception of any proceeds from oil drilling on the property (begun two years prior ).17 After Archambeault died in 1936, the Doty brothers were the sole owners of Ellwood Ranch and its oil rights.

By 1939, Ellwood Ranch was also home to Ellwood Dairies and Bob & Curl Salon. 18 The ranch and dairy operations employed numerous laborers, many of whom lived on the property with their spouses. 19 In 1945, Lawrence Doty passed away , leaving the Ellwood Ranch to his brothers Russel and Frank.
290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road
In 1947, Russel and Frank Doty subdivided the Ellwood Ranch property between them; Frank retained ownership of the parcel comprising 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road. 20 The subdivision map allowed for a roadway and utility easement through the property. In 1947, Frank made his wife, Ora, a co -owner of the property. In 1949, “sparks from a brush fire […] destroyed the old ‘boarding house’ on the Ellwood ranch,” part of Fr ank and Ora’s property.21
After Frank’s death in 1959, Ora retained ownership of 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road.

Two years later, in 1961, Ora gave Hilltop Properties, a joint venture between Walker-Built Homes, Inc., Herbert and Eleanore Braun, and Roy Eaton, real estate rights to the property.

The property was put under the name ‘Elwood Properties ’ for a short period, and then returned to Hilltop Properties until 1963.22
From 1963 to 1976, the property was owned by Ellwood Ranch, Inc. The following year, ownership of the property reverted to Walker -Built Homes, Herbert and Eleanore Braun, and Roy Eaton, who then sold it to William and Virginia Sterchi. The Sterchis retained the property for only a short while before selling it to Gerard and Rosella Bradley i n 1977. In 1984, a roadway easement was granted to Southern California Edison (at the terminus of present-day Langlo Ranch Road) ; an additional roadway easement through the property was granted to Ellwood Ranch, Inc. in 1988. These roadways bifurcated the property north

RECOMMENDATIONS
The approximately 23-acre property now known as 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road was part of the original Rancho Los Dos Pueblos land grant made to Goleta pioneer Nicolas Den in 1842; a portion of that land was purchased by Ellwood Cooper in approximately 1870 and sold to C.J.M. McGill- Crichton in 1912. After conducting additional research into the property, including archival research at the Goleta Valley Historical Society and Special Collections at UCSB, the “Ellwood Queen” eucalyptus tree, and the residence and barn constructed in 1912 at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road appear eligible for designation as a City of Goleta Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as a rare remaining example of an early agricultural property in Goleta, with resources dating from the early 20 th century. The
residence is not visible from the public right -of-way; however, there is a residence on the property that corresponds to the location of the 1912 residence as shown in historic photographs. Additional review of the residence, including an identification of extant historic features, subsequent alterations, and an evaluation of integrity, would be required prior to reviewing any potential project.

23 Information about roadway easements found in deed records held by the County of Santa Barbara. 24 The metal outbuilding at 295 Ellwood Canyon Road may have been used as Indio Farms in 1993 by Gregg Carlile and Kenyon Fink. No additional information about the business was found; it does not appear to be in operation at the property. 25 Ownership history derived from deed records held by the County of Santa Barbara. 25 MEMO

This evaluation is for the single‐family residence and barn and the "Ellwood Queen" eucalyptus tree on the property at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road. These resources appear eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Historic Landmark under local Criterion 2(a). According to the Windshield Survey of  Farm Properties: Unincorporated Areas of Goleta Valley, this property was "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] ce
nturies." That survey did not formally evaluate properties for potential eligibility for historic designation, and no California Historical Resources Status Codes were assigned.

Criterion 2(a)
The approximately 23‐acre property now known as 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road was part of the original Rancho Los Dos Pueblos land grant made to Goleta pioneer Nicolas Den in 1842; a portion of that land was purchased by Ellwood Cooper in approximately 1870 and sold to C.J.M. McGill‐Crichton in 1912. According to docume
ntation at the Goleta Valley Historical Society, both the house and barn were constructed in 1912. According to local history, the "Ellwood Queen" was planted as e
arly as 1887 by Ellwood Cooper, an early Goleta pioneer and horticulturalist (Source: GoletaHistory.com). These three remnant features: the house, barn, and "Ellwood Queen" eucalyptus tree appear eligible for listing as a City of Goleta Landmark under local Criterion 2(a) as rare remaining features of an early agricultural property in Goleta, with resources dating from the early 20th century.

Rancho Los Dos Pueblos
The prope
rty at 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road is located at the northwest boundary of the City of Goleta. The property was part of the 15,534‐acre Rancho Los Dos Pueblos, granted to Goleta pioneer Nicolas Den (1812‐1862) in 1842; he used the property as a cattle ranch until his death.  In accordance with Den’s will,  Rancho Los Dos Pueblos was subdivided into smaller parcels for his heirs, including his wife, Rosa, and each of their ten children.  The portions of the ranch set aside for Den's children were to be held in trust until each child came of age. The age of majority is defined as 21 in Den’s will, but his children could collect their inheritance if they married before the of 18 with the consent of their guardians, or if they married after the age of 18 with or without their guardians’ consent.

Signifiance Statement (continued):

Ellwood Ranch

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 (1829-1918), 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 between 1869 and 1871, purchased over 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. Cooper’s beach frontage “extended from Kate Den Bell’s Las Armas Ranch (site of the future Ellwood oil strike) to Alfonso Den’s ranch at Coal Oil Point (now the Devereux Ranch School campus) on the east.” 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 these buildings were removed by subsequent owners or were destroyed by natural disasters. According to archival information at the Goleta Valley Historical Society, Cooper’s residence was removed from the property in the 1920s. Cooper also planted seven different orchards of olive trees, as well as English walnuts, wheat, and Japanese persimmons.

In the mid-1870s, Cooper’s claim to Ellwood Ranch was contested. The portion of the Den estate on which the ranch was located had been held in trust for Emanuel Den (1849-1923), who had not yet come of age when Cooper entered into the contract to purchase 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 in 1886, surrendering all of his property west of Goleta and south of Hollister Avenue. Cooper retained the portions of the ranch comprising 160 acres of eucalyptus seedlings; his persimmon, olive, and walnut orchards; his olive mill; his residence; and the other buildings on the property.

In 1912, Ellwood Cooper sold Ellwood Ranch to Major Charles J.M. McGill-Crichton. That same year, the barn and residence that are extant on the property today were constructed. Upon taking ownership of the property, Crichton converted the ranch to produce lemons and walnuts. 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.” Crichton retained ownership of the property until 1915, when he was killed while fighting in World War I.

In 1921, Joseph Archambeault (1858-1936) and J.E. Doty (1872-1925) purchased Ellwood Ranch from Crichton’s estate at public auction. After J.E. Doty died in 1925, his brothers, Lawrence A., Russel E., and Francis G. (Frank) took over his half of the partnership. The Doty brothers’ partnership with Archambeault lasted until 1929, when Archambeault sold them his interest in the property, with the exception of any proceeds from oil drilling on the property (begun two years prior). After Archambeault died in 1936, the Doty brothers were the sole owners of Ellwood Ranch and its oil rights.

By 1939, Ellwood Ranch was also home to Ellwood Dairies and Bob & Curl Salon. The ranch and dairy operations employed numerous laborers, many of whom lived on the property with their spouses. In 1945, Lawrence Doty passed away, leaving the Ellwood Ranch to his brothers Russel and Frank.

290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road

In 1947, Russel and Frank Doty subdivided the Ellwood Ranch property between them; Frank retained ownership of the parcel comprising 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road. The subdivision map allowed for a roadway and utility easement through the property. In 1947, Frank made his wife, Ora, a co- owner of the property. In 1949, “sparks from a brush fire […] destroyed the old ‘boarding house’ on the Ellwood ranch,” part of Frank and Ora’s property.

After Frank’s death in 1959, Ora retained ownership of 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road. Two years later, in 1961, Ora gave Hilltop Properties, a joint venture between Walker-Built Homes, Inc., Herbert and Eleanore Braun, and Roy Eaton, real estate rights to the property. The property was put under the name ‘Elwood Properties’ for a short period, and then returned to Hilltop Properties until 1963.

From 1963 to 1976, the property was owned by Ellwood Ranch, Inc. The following year, ownership of the property reverted to Walker-Built Homes, Herbert and Eleanore Braun, and Roy Eaton, who then sold it to William and Virginia Sterchi. The Sterchis retained the property for only a short while before selling it to Gerard and Rosella Bradley in 1977. In 1984, a roadway easement was granted to Southern California Edison (at the terminus of present-day Langlo Ranch Road); an additional roadway easement through the property was granted to Ellwood Ranch, Inc. in 1988. These roadways bifurcated the property north to south, separating the metal outbuilding at 295 Ellwood Canyon Road from the remainder of the property.

The Bradleys (subsequently the Bradley Family Trust) retained ownership of the property until it was sold to Harvey and Patricia Deeter and Linda Mers (Kurowski) in 1999. The property was sold to Rad Ranch, LLC, on December 30, 2021.

Reason(s) why the project is exempt:

Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21083.3 an d 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 certified shal l 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 pr oject or site that would

There is no new substant ial 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 project that were not addressed in the General Plan EIR. As such, Ordinance 22-05 adopted on April 19, 2022, which establishes the City’s process and criteria for adding properti es to the HRI, and specific Historical designations, was found to be exempt from further CEQA review.

Further, p ursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15061(b)(3) and §15378(b)(5), the proposed addition of 290/295 Ellwood Canyon Road to the Historic Resources Invent ory and the adopting clarifying findings relative 96 Glen Annie Road regarding which on-site features were designated on April 19, 2022, does not qualify as a "project" for the purposes of CEQA because the adding properties to the HRI does not result in di rect or indirect physical changes in the environment. The listing proposed does not, by its elf, has the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. Any subsequent development project will be separately examined in accordance with CEQA. As s uch, the action to add the subject property to the HRI is exempt from CEQA review.
