Agenda packet — Santa Ana City Council, February 15, 2022 (part 2 of 9)

set forth in Section 30-2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC). This project entails applying the selection criteria established in Chapter 30 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (Places of Historical and Architectural Significance) to determine if this structure is eligible for historic designation to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The first criterion for selection requires that the structures be 50 or more years old.

The structure identified meets the minimum selection criteria for inclusion on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties pursuant to criteria contained in Section 30-2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, as the structure is 94 years old and is a good example of period architecture. No known code violations exist on record for this property.

The property, recognized as the W.D. Johnston House, is a representative example of the Georgian/Federal variant of a Colonial Revival style in Santa Ana. It was built in 1927 for $13,000. According to city directories, the first occupant was William Dean Johnston. Johnston was a 62-year resident of Orange County, mostly in Santa Ana where he worked as both Second President of the County Farm Bureau and the Secretary and Manager of the Farmer’s Mutual Insurance Company in Santa Ana for over 25 years. Johnston divorced his second wife Ruth L. Johnston in 1940-41 and she retained the home. Mrs. Johnston later sold the property in 1942 to Frank and Catherine McClellan.

The W.D. Johnston House is a two-story single-family residence constructed in the Georgian/Federal variant of the Colonial Revival architectural style. Symmetrical in design, the house is clad in red brick and consists of a three bay wide, two story block and a small, one story, one-bay extension set back on the west elevation. A mediumpitched, side-gabled roof with enclosed soffits in the modest overhangs and asphalt shingle cladding tops the main volume. In the central bay of the façade, (south elevation), a prominent entry portico consists of stylized Doric columns and pilasters that rise to molded frieze, flat roof with enclosed soffit, and X-patterned balustrade. The entry features a six-panel wood entry door framed by an elliptical fanlight and sidelights.

Multi-paned casement windows with an elliptical fanlight flank the entry porch in the side bays of the lower story. Paired six-over-one, double-hung, wood windows in the side bays and multi-paned French doors in the central bay, all framed by shutters, characterize the second story fenestration. Similar double-hung wood windows also appear on the north, east, and west elevations, all featuring a “lamb tongue” detailing.

Brick detailing at the openings includes soldier and header brick courses. A rebuilt brick chimney is centered at the west elevation, towards the side gable ridgeline. The property includes a one-story addition, brick clad and topped by a balustrade, on the west elevation that has taken on significance over time and is within the period of significance of the style. A driveway to the east of the property leads to a detached, one-story, side-gabled garage, built at the same time as the residence. The front setback is simply landscaped with a lawn, low vegetation and a hedge-lined brick pathway that curves towards the junction of the driveway and sidewalk.

Character-defining features of the W.D. Johnston House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: roof configuration, materials, and treatment (mediumpitched side gabled roof, enclosed soffits); massing and composition (two-story block design; symmetry); portico, brick exterior walls trimmed with wood; fenestration (entry door with elliptical fan and sidelights and original wood windows); architectural detailing (columns, frieze, balustrades, red brick detailing, and window shutters); brick entry pathway; and the one-story garage. The W.D. Johnston House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the Georgian/Federal variant of a Colonial Revival style home. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Key” because it has distinctive architectural style and quality and is a good example of Colonial Revival architecture.

Mills Act Agreement
Ordinance No. NS-2382 authorized the Historic Resources Commission to execute Historic Property Preservation Agreements (HPPA), commonly known as Mills Act agreements for eligible properties (Exhibit 2). To be eligible for the Mills Act, the property must be listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The Historic Resources Commission Application and Historic Register Categorization actions proposed for this site authorize the listing of the property on the local register. The agreement provides monetary incentives to the property owner in the form of a property tax reduction in exchange for the owner’s voluntary commitment to maintain the property in a good state of repair as necessary to maintain its character and appearance. Once recorded, the agreement generates a different valuation method in determining the property’s assessed value, resulting in tax savings for the owner. Aside from the tax savings, the benefits include:
 Long term preservation of the property and visual improvement to the neighborhood  Allows for a mechanism to provide for property rehabilitation  Provides additional incentive for potential buyers to purchase historic structures  Discourages inappropriate alterations to the property The property has no identified unauthorized modifications. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement.

Public Notification
The subject site is located within the Floral Park Neighborhood Association. The president of this Neighborhood Association was notified by mail 10 days prior to this public hearing. In addition, the project site was posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter and mailed notices were sent to all property owners within 500 feet of the project site.

ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Georgian/Federal variant of a Colonial Revival The most universal of all American domestic building styles, the Colonial Revival has been popular since the 1876 Centennial celebration in Philadelphia stimulated a patriotic interest in the American architectural past. Beginning in the second half of the 1930s, and continuing in the two decades following World War II, the late Colonial Revival departed from the more literal historicism of the previous half-century and was often reduced to a few signature elements. These features include stylized door surrounds; pseudo-quoined corners; multi-paned casement or double-hung sash windows, often framed by decorative shutters; circular, oval, or octagonal accent windows; and eaves nearly flush with the exterior walls. A hipped roof subtype sometimes contained Regency references such as bow and bay windows. Another popular subtype was split-level, ranch, or Cape Cod in appearance and plan, and normally topped by gabled roofs. The materials used in the late Colonial Revival were similar to those of the earlier period—wood, brick, stone, and stucco—although stucco came to be used more frequently than before (McAlester 1984, 320-339).

SUMMARY/CONCLUSION:

Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Key” because it has distinctive architectural style and quality and is a good example of Colonial Revival architecture. (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

*B10. Significance (continued):

The W.D. Johnston House is located in Floral Park, a neighborhood northwest of downtown Santa Ana bounded by West Seventeenth Street, North Flower Street, Riverside Drive, and Broadway. Groves of oranges, avocados, and walnuts and widely scattered ranch houses characterized this area before 1920. Developer and builder Allison Honer (1897-1981), credited as the subdivider and builder of a major portion of northwest Santa Ana, arrived in Santa Ana from Beaver Falls, New York in 1922 (Talbert, pages 353-356). “Before nightfall on the day of his arrival, Mr. Honer purchased a parcel of land. And that month, he began building custom homes in Santa Ana” (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). The parcel chosen became the Floral Park subdivision between Seventeenth Street and Santiago Creek. “When built in the 1920s, the Floral Park homes were the most lavish and expensive in the area. They sold for about $45,000 each” (Orange County Register, September 15, 1981). Revival architecture in a wide variety of romantic styles was celebrated in the 1920s and 1930s and Floral Park showcased examples of the English Tudor, French Norman, Spanish Colonial, and Colonial Revival.

The Allison Honer Construction Company went on to complete such notable projects as the 1935 Art Deco styled Old Santa Ana City Hall, the El Toro Marine Base during World War II, and the 1960 Honer Shopping Plaza. Honer lived in the neighborhood he had helped to create, at 615 West Santa Clara Avenue.

In the late 1920s and 1930s, another builder, Roy Roscoe Russell (1881-1965), continued developing the groves of Floral Park.

An early Russell project was his 1928 subdivision of Victoria Drive between West Nineteenth Street and West Santa Clara Avenue. The homes were quite grand and displayed various revival styles, including Russell’s own large, Colonial Revival mansion at 2009 Victoria Drive. In the early post World War II years, Floral Park continued its development as numerous, smaller, single-family houses were built. Continuing in the Floral Park tradition, homes in the neighborhoods were mostly developed in the revival styles. In the 1950s, low, horizontal Ranch Style houses completed the growth of Floral Park. Today (2021) Floral Park maintains its identity as the premier neighborhood of Santa Ana, historically home to many affluent and prominent citizens.

The W.D. Johnston House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the Georgian/Federal variant of a Colonial Revival style home. Identifying features of this style include its two-story massing, symmetry, classically inspired detailing, formal portico, elliptical fanlights, and multi-paned fenestration. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Key” because it has distinctive architectural style and quality and is a good example of Colonial Revival architecture. (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). Character-defining features of the W.D. Johnston House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: roof configuration, materials, and treatment (medium-pitched side gabled roof,enclosed soffits); massing and composition (two-story block design;symmetry); portico, brick exterior walls trimmed with wood; fenestration (entry door with elliptical fan and sidelights and original wood windows); architectural detailing (columns, frieze, balustrades, red brick detailing, and window shutters); brick entry pathway; and the one-story garage.

Exhibit C
Exterior work shall be reviewed by the Historic Resources Commission and subject to the U.S.

Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings, as follows:

1. Every reasonable effort shall be made to provide a compatible use for a property which requires minimal alteration of the building, structure, or site and its environment, or to use a property for its originally intended purpose.

2. The distinguishing original qualities or character of a building, structure or site and its environment shall not be destroyed. The removal or alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural features should be avoided when possible.

3. All buildings, structures, and sites shall be recognized as products of their own time. Alterations that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier appearance shall be discouraged.

4. Changes which may have taken place in the course of time are evidence of the history and development of a building, structure, or site and its environment.

These changes may have acquired significance in their own right, and this significance shall be recognized and respected.

5. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship which characterize a building, structure, or site shall be treated with sensitivity.

6. Deteriorated architectural features shall be repaired rather than replaced, whenever possible. In the event replacement is necessary, the new material should match the material being replaced in composition, design, color, texture, and other visual qualities. Repair or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic, physical, or pictorial evidence rather than on conjectural designs or the availability of different architectural elements from the other buildings or structures.

7. The surface cleaning of structures shall be undertaken with the gentlest means possible. Sandblasting and other cleaning methods that will damage the historic building materials shall not be undertaken.

8. Every reasonable effort shall be made to protect and reserve archaeological resources affected by, or adjacent to any project.

9. Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not be discouraged when such alterations and additions do not destroy significant historical, architectural or cultural material, an such design is compatible with Historic City Council Resources Commission 315––1371 11/4/2021 2/15/2022

NOW, THEREFORE, the City of Santa Ana and the Owner of the Historic Property agree as follows:

During the term of this Agreement, the Historic Property shall be subject to the following conditions, requirements and restrictions:

These guidelines are attached hereto, marked as Exhibit C, and incorporated herein by this reference. Owner shall continually maintain the Historic Property in the same or better condition.
c. A view corridor enabling the general public to see the Historic Property from the public right-of-way shall be maintained, and Owner shall not be permitted to block the view corridor to the property with any new structure, such as walls, fences or shrubbery, so as to prevent the viewing of the historic landmark by the public. d. The following are prohibited: demolition of the Historic Property or destruction of character-defining features of the building or site; removal of trees and other major vegetation unless removal is approved by a rehabilitation plan approved by the Historic Resources Commission; paving of yard surface; exterior alterations or additions unless approved by the Historic Resources Commission and such alterations are in keeping with the Secretary of Interior’s Standards; deteriorating, dilapidated or unrepaired structures such as fences, roofs, doors, walls, and windows; storage of junk, trash, debris, discarded or unused objects such as cars, appliances, or furniture; and other unsightly by decoration, structure or vegetation which is unsightly by reason of its height, condition, or inappropriate location. e.

4. Furnishing of Information.

The Owner hereby agrees to furnish the City with any and all information requested which may be necessary or advisable to determine compliance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

5. Cancellation.
a.

6. Enforcement of Agreement.
a. In lieu of and/or in addition to any provisions to cancel the Agreement as referenced herein, City may specifically enforce, or enjoin the breach of, the terms of the Agreement. In the event of a default, under the provisions to cancel the Agreement by Owner, the City shall give written notice to Owner by registered or certified mail, and if such a violation is not corrected to the reasonable satisfaction of the City Manager or designee within thirty (30) days thereafter, or if not corrected within such a reasonable time as may be required to cure the breach or default, or default cannot be cured within thirty (30) days (provided that acts to cure the breach or default may be commenced within thirty (30) days and shall thereafter be diligently pursued to completion by Owner), then City may, without further notice, declare a default under the terms of this Agreement and may bring any action necessary to specifically enforce the obligations of Owner growing out of the terms of this Agreement, apply to any court, state or federal, for injunctive relief against any violation by Owner or apply for such relief as may be appropriate.

8. No Compensation.

Owner shall not receive any payment from City in consideration of the obligation imposed under this Agreement, it being recognized that the consideration for the execution of this Agreement is the substantial public benefit to be derived therefrom and the advantage that will accrue to Owner as a result of the effect upon the assessed value of the Property on the account of the restrictions on the use and preservation of the Property.

Prehistoric Historic Both
ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Tudor Revival
The Tudor Revival looked to medieval England for its inspiration. Signature features of the style include steeply pitched gables; decorative half-timbering; arched openings, often Tudor or Gothic in form; asymmetrical arrangements of building features; tall brick chimneys; and picturesque windows of leaded glass or diamond patterned lights. The more ambitious examples of the Tudor Revival were executed in brick or even stone; however, stucco over wood frame is quite common in the forgiving climate of southern California. The Tudor Revival was favored primarily for residential buildings, although small scale commercial buildings in the style also occur. Originating in the late 19th century, the Tudor Revival was associated with some Craftsman era building but was most popular during the 1920s and 1930s.

SUMMARY/CONCLUSION:

The Burkett House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact and representative example of a Tudor Revival style home. The house is also of interest as it is a unusual example of Tudor Revival featuring clapboard siding. The Burkett House has been categorized as “Contributive” because it “contributes to the overall character and history” of the Park Santiago neighborhood and “is a good example of period architecture,” representing the Tudor Revival style in Santa Ana (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

Asymmetrical in design, the house exhibits a front-facing gable with wing roof design of high pitch, with roof eaves of little to no overhang, clad in composition shingle roofing. The prominent front-facing gable is located along the north side and features a massive brick chimney with two chimney pots, extending past the roofline. The entryway is characterized by a non-original fulllight wood front door, accessed via a brick front porch walkway. Fenestration consists of multi-paned casement windows used on the primary elevation framed with shutters, while four-over-four double-hung windows are used along the north, south, and east elevations. Along the primary elevation, the second floor features a wide shed dormer with four multi-paned casement windows, also framed by shutters. The property is simply landscaped with a lawn, low vegetation and curved brick walkway through the front setback. The driveway is located along the south elevation and leads to the detached, one-story, two-car garage, also clad in clapboard siding. Other than the noted changes, the house appears intact and is in good condition. *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP2. Single-Family Residence *P4.

Significance: Theme Residential architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1926 Property Type: Single-Family Residence Applicable Criteria: C/3 (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity) The Burkett House is architecturally significant as a unusual example of the Tudor Revival style. This house was originally constructed in 1926, and was valued at approximately $7,000 according to the original building permit. Constructed by Santora Land Company., the house remained under its original ownership for nearly three decades. The first recorded owners and occupants were Frederick A. Burkett, who went by “F.A. Burkett”, and Mabel Lillian Burkett. Mr. Burkett was involved in oil and was superintendent of various oil companies near Huntington Beach, CA. Mrs. Burkett was very active in Santa Ana women’s organizations such as Ebell and hosted “section events” in the home. The home was featured in the Santa Ana Register on Thursday June 2, 1927, “as an attractive home of Santa Ana.” The Burkett’s children, Fred Jr. Eleanor, Sarah Jane and JoAnn were socially and academically active and attended Southern California universities. The Burkett’s filed homestead on the property in 1958 and the home remained in the family for several years after the deaths of Fred Sr. and Mabel. Since then, the Burkett House has been occupied by various owners until the current homeowner purchased the home in 2021. (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.)

*B10. Significance (continued):

The Burkett House is located in the Santiago Park neighborhood. The neighborhood is bounded by Santiago Creek and Park on the north, East Seventeenth Street on the south, North Lincoln Avenue on the east, North Main Street on the west, and the I-5 freeway on the southwest. In large part these boundaries reflect the transportation lines that were constructed towards the end of the nineteenth century and at the beginning of the twentieth century, when the Pacific Electric interurban railroad ran up Main Street; the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe tracks followed Lincoln; and the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way mirrored the freeway route.

This area remained primarily agricultural well into the 1920s. As of 1905, the city directories listed around twenty households on East Santa Clara, Twentieth Street, “C Street” (now North Santiago Street), North Bush Street and North Main Avenue, the only streets in the area at the time. The vast majority of the residents were ranchers. By 1911, the number of households had increased to about thirty, and Edgewood Road and Valencia Street had been partially laid out, but most residents continued to list “rancher” or “fruit grower” as their occupation in the city directories. This pattern of land use was evident on the 1912 plat map of the City, which illustrated two small, Craftsman era subdivisions along Bush north of Santa Clara and on Valencia and Poinsettia south of Twentieth Street, with the remaining area divided into larger, agricultural parcels held by approximately forty landowners.

While the area east of Santiago Street was not subdivided until after the mid-1920s, most of the present day streets west of Santiago had been laid out when the City was mapped in 1923. Ranching continued to be the most prevalent occupation in the neighborhood, but increasing numbers of professionals, small business owners, merchants, and people in service professions such as painters, electricians, and carpenters made their homes in the western half of the neighborhood during the 1920s and 1930s. The area also attracted several city and county officials, including the City Attorney (Z. B. West, Jr., 321 East Santa Clara Avenue), County Supervisor, First District (C. H. Chapman, 2315 North Santiago Street), County Surveyor (E. H. Irwin, 2407 North Santiago Street), and County Auditor (William C. Jerome, 2422 Poinsettia Street). By April 1942, when the Sanborn Company first mapped the western half of the area, most of the lots had been improved with single-family homes, many in the revival styles popular during the 1920s and 1930s. Subsequent development of the eastern half of the neighborhood and infill construction in the western half displayed the simplified ranch style that emerged following World War II.

The Burkett House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact and representative example of a Tudor Revival style home. The house displays characteristics of the Tudor Revival through its high pitched multi gabled roof, shallow eaves, asymmetrical massing, multi-paned windows and prominent brick chimney. The house is also of interest as it is a unusual example of Tudor Revival featuring clapboard siding. The Burkett House has been categorized as “Contributive” because it “contributes to the overall character and history” of the Santiago Park neighborhood and “is a good example of period architecture,” representing the Tudor Revival style in Santa Ana (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). Character-defining features of the house include the one and a half-story massing, high pitched and side gabled roof; massive chimney; dormers; clapboard siding; roof eaves with little to no overhang; and multi-paned, casement windows framed with shutters.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Adopt a resolution approving Historic Resources Commission Application No. 2021- 23 and Historic Register Categorization No. 2021-22 (Exhibit 1).

2. Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute the attached Mills Act agreement with Michelle Helvig, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney (Exhibit 2).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Michelle Helvig is requesting approval to designate an existing residence located at 2311 North Santiago Street to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties, as well as approval to execute a Mills Act agreement with the City of Santa Ana.

DISCUSSION
Project Location and Site Description
The subject property is located on the east side of North Santiago Street in the Park Santiago neighborhood. The site contains a 2,240-square-foot, Tudor Revival style residence and detached garage on a 6,500-square-foot residential lot (Exhibit 3).

Analysis of the Issues
Historical Listing
In March 1999, the City Council approved Ordinance No. NS-2363 establishing the Historic Resources Commission and the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties.

The Historic Resources Commission may, by resolution and at a noticed public hearing, designate as a historical property any building or part thereof, object, structure, or site having importance to the history or architecture of the city in accordance with the criteria set forth in Section 30-2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC). This project entails Historic Resources Commission 4 – 1 11/4/2021

applying the selection criteria established in Chapter 30 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (Places of Historical and Architectural Significance) to determine if this structure is eligible for historic designation to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties. The first criterion for selection requires that the structures be 50 or more years old.

The structure identified meets the minimum selection criteria for inclusion on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties pursuant to criteria contained in Section 30-2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, as the structure is 95 years old and is a good example of period architecture. No known code violations exist on record for this property.

The Burkett House is architecturally significant as a characteristic example of the Tudor Revival style. This house was originally constructed in 1926, and was valued at approximately $7,000 according to the original building permit. Constructed by Santora Land Company, the house remained under its original ownership for nearly three decades. The first recorded owners and occupants were Frederick A. Burkett, who went by “F.A. Burkett,” and Mabel Lillian Burkett. Mr. Burkett was involved in oil and was superintendent of various oil companies near Huntington Beach. Mrs. Burkett was very active in Santa Ana women’s organizations such as Ebell and hosted “section events” in the home.

The Burkett House is a one and a half-story single-family residential building constructed in the Tudor Revival style. The house is of interest as it is influenced by an unusual example of Tudor Revival featuring clapboard siding. Asymmetrical in design, the house exhibits a front-facing gable with wing roof design of high pitch, with roof eaves of little to no overhang, clad in composition shingle roofing. The prominent frontfacing gable is located along the north side and features a massive brick chimney with two chimney pots, extending past the roofline. The entryway is characterized by a nonoriginal full-light wood front door, accessed via a brick front porch walkway. Fenestration consists of multi-paned casement windows used on the primary elevation framed with shutters, while four-over-four double-hung windows are used along the north, south, and east elevations. Along the primary elevation, the second floor features a wide shed dormer with four multi-paned casement windows, also framed by shutters. The property is simply landscaped with a lawn, low vegetation and curved brick walkway through the front setback. The driveway is located along the south elevation and leads to the detached, one-story, two-car garage, also clad in clapboard siding. Character-defining features of the house include the one and a half-story massing, high pitched and side gabled roof; massive chimney; dormers; clapboard siding; roof eaves with little to no overhang; and multi-paned, casement windows framed with shutters.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Burkett House
2311 N. Santiago Street
Santa Ana, CA 92706
NAME Burkett House REF. NO.

SUMMARY/CONCLUSION:

The Burkett House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 as an intact and representative example of a Tudor Revival style home. The house is also of interest as it is a unusual example of Tudor Revival featuring clapboard siding. The Burkett House has been categorized as “Contributive” because it “contributes to the overall character and history” of the Park Santiago neighborhood and “is a good example of period architecture,” representing the Tudor Revival style in Santa Ana (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2).

Asymmetrical in design, the house exhibits a front-facing gable with wing roof design of high pitch, with roof eaves of little to no overhang, clad in composition shingle roofing. The prominent front-facing gable is located along the north side and features a massive brick chimney with two chimney pots, extending past the roofline. The entryway is characterized by a non-original fulllight wood front door, accessed via a brick front porch walkway. Fenestration consists of multi-paned casement windows used on the primary elevation framed with shutters, while four-over-four double-hung windows are used along the north, south, and east elevations. Along the primary elevation, the second floor features a wide shed dormer with four multi-paned casement windows, also framed by shutters. The property is simply landscaped with a lawn, low vegetation and curved brick walkway through the front setback. The driveway is located along the south elevation and leads to the detached, one-story, two-car garage, also clad in clapboard siding. Other than the noted changes, the house appears intact and is in good condition. *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP2. Single-Family Residence *P4.
