SUBSTANCE ABUSE POLICY
The Parties recognize the problems which drug and alcohol abuse have created in the construction industry and the need to develop drug and alcohol abuse prevention programs. Accordingly, the Parties agree that in order to enhance the safety of the work place and to maintain a drug and alcohol free work environment, individual Contractors may require applicants or employees to undergo drug and alcohol testing.
1. It is understood that the use, possession, transfer or sale of illegal drugs, narcotics, or other unlawful substances, as well as being under the influence of alcohol and the possession or consuming alcohol is absolutely prohibited while employees are on the Contractor’s job premises or while working on any jobsite in connection with work performed under the Community Workforce Agreement (“CWA”).
2. No Contractor may implement a drug testing program which does not conform in all respects to the provisions of this Policy.
3. No Contractor may implement drug testing at any jobsite unless written notice is given to the Union setting forth the location of the jobsite, a description of the project under construction, and the name and telephone number of the Project Work Supervisor. Said notice shall be addressed to the office of each Union signing the CWA. Said notice shall be delivered in person or by registered mail before the implementation of drug testing. Failure to give such notice shall make any drug testing engaged in by the Contractor a violation of the CWA, and the Contractor may not implement any form of drug testing at such jobsite for the following six months.
4. An employer who elects to implement drug testing pursuant to this Agreement shall require all employees on the Project Work to be tested. With respect to individuals who become employed on the Project Work subsequent to the proper implementation of this drug testing program, such test shall be administered upon the commencement of employment on the project, whether by referral from a Union Dispatch Office, transfer from another project, or another method. Individuals who were employed on the project prior to the proper implementation of this drug testing program may only be subjected to testing for the reasons set forth in Paragraph 5(f) (1) through 5(f) (3) of this Policy. Refusal to undergo such testing shall be considered sufficient grounds to deny employment on the project.
5. The following procedure shall apply to all drug testing:
a. The Contractor may request urine samples only. The applicant or employee shall not be observed when the urine specimen is given. An applicant or employee, at his or her sole option, shall, upon request, receive a blood test in lieu of a urine test. No employee of the Contractor shall draw blood from a bargaining unit employee, touch or handle urine specimens, or in any way become involved in the chain of custody of urine or blood specimens. A Union Business Representative, subject to the approval of the individual applicant or employee, shall be permitted City Council
14 – 149 8/6/2024
Community Workforce Agreement 41 City of Santa Ana
to accompany the applicant or employee to the collection facility to observe the collection, bottling, and sealing of the specimen.
b. The testing shall be done by a laboratory approved by the Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), which is chosen by the Contractor and the Union.
c. An initial test shall be performed using the Enzyme Multiplied Immunoassay Technique (EMZT). In the event a question or positive result arises from the initial test, a confirmation test must be utilized before action can be taken against the applicant or employee. The confirmation test will be by Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS).
Cutoff levels for both the initial test and confirmation test will be those established by the SAMHSA. Should these SAMHSA levels be changed during the course of this agreement or new testing procedures are approved, then these new regulations will be deemed as part of this existing agreement. Confirmed positive samples will be retained by the testing laboratory in secured longterm frozen storage for a minimum of one year. Handling and transportation of each sample must be documented through strict chain of custody procedures. d. In the event of a confirmed positive test result the applicant or employee may request, within forty-eight (48) hours, a sample of his/her specimen from the testing laboratory for purposes of a second test to be performed at a second laboratory, designated by the Union and approved by SAMHSA. The retest must be performed within ten (10) days of the request. Chain of custody for this sample shall be maintained by the Contractor between the original testing laboratory and the Union's designated laboratory. Retesting shall be performed at the applicant’s or employee’s expense. In the event of conflicting test results the Contractor may require a third test.
e. If, as a result of the above testing procedure, it is determined that an applicant or employee has tested positive, this shall be considered sufficient grounds to deny the applicant or employee his/her employment on the Project Work. f. No individual who tests negative for drugs or alcohol pursuant to the above procedure and becomes employed on the Project Work shall again be subjected to drug testing with the following exceptions:
1. Employees who are involved in industrial accidents resulting in damage to plant, property or equipment or injury to him/herself or others may be tested pursuant to the procedures stated hereinabove.
2. The Contractor may test employees following thirty (30) days advance written notice to the employee(s) to be tested and to the applicable Union. Notice to the applicable Union shall be as set forth in Paragraph 3 above and such testing shall be pursuant to the procedures stated hereinabove.
3. The Contractor may test an employee where the Contractor has reasonable cause to believe that the employee is impaired from performing his/her job. Reasonable City Council
14 – 150 8/6/2024
Community Workforce Agreement 42 City of Santa Ana
cause shall be defined as exhibiting aberrant or unusual behavior, the type of which is a recognized and accepted symptom of impairment (i.e., slurred speech, unusua1 lack of muscular coordination, etc.). Such behavior must be actually observed by at least two persons, one of whom shall be a Supervisor who has been trained to recognize the symptoms of drug abuse or impairment and the other of whom shall be the job steward. If the job steward is unavailable or there is no job steward on the project the other person shall be a member of the applicable Union’s bargaining unit. Testing shall be pursuant to the procedures stated hereinabove. Employees who are tested pursuant to the exceptions set forth in this paragraph and who test positive will be removed from the Contractor's payroll.
g. Applicants or employees who do not test positive shall be paid for all time lost while undergoing drug testing. Payment shall be at the applicable wage and benefit rates set forth in the applicable Union’s Master Labor Agreement. Applicants who have been dispatched from the Union and who are not put to work pending the results of a test will be paid waiting time until such time as they are put to work. It is understood that an applicant must pass the test as a condition of employment. Applicants who are put to work pending the results of a test will be considered probationary employees.
6. The employers will be allowed to conduct periodic job site drug testing on the Project under the following conditions:
a. The entire jobsite must be tested, including any employee or subcontractor’s employee who worked on that project three (3) working days before or after the date of the test; b. Jobsite testing cannot commence sooner than thirty (30) days after start of the work on the Project;
c. Prior to start of periodic testing, a business representative will be allowed to conduct an educational period on company time to explain periodic jobsite testing program to affected employees;
d. Testing shall be conducted by a SAMHSA certified laboratory, pursuant to the provisions set forth in Paragraph 5 hereinabove.
e. Only two periodic tests may be performed in a twelve month period.
7. It is understood that the unsafe use of prescribed medication, or where the use of prescribed medication impairs the employee's ability to perform work, is a basis for the Contractor to remove the employee from the jobsite.
8. Any grievance or dispute which may arise out of the application of this Agreement shall be subject to the grievance and arbitration procedures set forth in the CWA.
9. The establishment or operation of this Policy shall not curtail any right of any employee found in any law, rule or regulation. Should any part of this Agreement be found unlawful by a court of competent jurisdiction or a public agency having jurisdiction over the City Council
14 – 151 8/6/2024

parties, the remaining portions of the Agreement shall be unaffected and the parties shall enter negotiations to replace the affected provision.
10. Present employees, if tested positive, shall have the prerogative for rehabilitation program at the employee’s expense. When such program has been successfully completed the Contractor shall not discriminate in any way against the employee. If work for which the employee is qualified exists he/she shall be reinstated.
11. The Contractor agrees that results of urine and blood tests performed hereunder will be considered medical records held confidential to the extent permitted or required by law. Such records shall not be released to any persons or entities other than designated Contractor representatives and the applicable Union. Such release to the applicable Union shall only be allowed upon the signing of a written release and the information contained therein shall not be used to discourage the employment of the individual applicant or employee on any subsequent occasion.
12. The Contractor shall indemnify and hold the Union harmless against any and all claims, demands, suits, or liabilities that may arise out of the application of this Agreement and/or any program permitted hereunder.
13. Employees who seek voluntary assistance for substance abuse may not be disciplined for seeking such assistance. Requests from employees for such assistance shall remain confidential and shall not be revealed to other employees or management personnel without the employee's consent. Employees enrolled in substance abuse programs shall be subject to all Contractor rules, regulations and job performance standards with the understanding that an employee enrolled in such a program is receiving treatment for an illness.
14. This Memorandum, of Understanding shall constitute the only Agreement in effect between the parties concerning drug and alcohol abuse, prevention and testing. Any modifications thereto must be accomplished pursuant to collective bargaining negotiations between the parties.

B. CLARIFICATIONS AND ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS ASKED PRIOR TO THE DEADLINE ARE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Q: If the City will accept a C-45 license, will you wave the insurance requirement for professional liability insurance as specialty trades such as C-45’s do not carry nor do they have that insurance available for them.
A: Please see section A. of this document for the revised Minimum Scope and Limit of Insurance section, removing the Professional Liability insurance requirement.
2. Q: Considering there are no designs provided in the RFP, each bidder will need to design specific designs for each location. Assuming the answer to #3 above is, the City of Santa Ana expects additional graphic elements on each display unique to each park or neighborhood: a) Does the City of Santa Ana acknowledge each design will be unique and holds a Copy Right by the submitting bidder? b)The Copy Right does not transfer to the City of Santa Ana unless the bidder is awarded the project and the project is bidder is paid for the project? c)Does the City of Santa Ana understand the financial penalty for Copy Right infringement? d)Will the City of Santa Ana protect the Copy Right of each of the designs submitted by each bidder by not having a competing bidder not view, bid, reproduce or create a display that is similar to the copy right design? A: The City will acknowledge copyright protection to those designs qualifying for such under Federal copyright law. However, should any copyrightable design be selected and used by the City pursuant to a written agreement for services, the design will be considered a “work made for hire”, meaning that the City will be the copyright owner. All designs submitted as part of a bid proposal may be subject to disclosure under the California Public Records Act and any applicable exemptions thereto.
3. Q: We are a certified DVBE and HUBzone sign company, do you need a DVBE for this bid ?
A: No, DVBE is not a requirement of this RFP.
4. 2)
Q: Considering, 1) we are a specialty contractor located outside of Orange County, our qualified lead installers do not live in the zip codes provided, 3) there is no union trade covering sign installation, 4) most of the work performed will be City Council

This provision shall not apply to instances in which an employee who has access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a part of such employee's essential job functions discloses the compensation of such other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation conducted by the employer, or is consistent with the Consultant's legal duty to furnish information. (iv) The Consultant will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which he has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the said labor union or workers' representatives of the Consultant's commitments under this section, and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment.

CITY OF SANTA ANA
On April 4, 2022, the federal government discontinued use of the DUNS Number to uniquely identify entities. Now, entities doing business with the federal government use the Unique Entity ID created in SAM.gov. They no longer have to go to a third-party website to obtain their identifier. This transition allows the government to streamline the entity identification and validation process, making it easier and less burdensome for entities to do business with the federal government.
This RFP includes federal funding, and as such, the proposer must provide verification of their UEI and active registration status.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT WORKSHEET
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
As part of the Revive Santa Ana pandemic recovery program funded by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), this project, designated as Expansion of Critical Communications, will install digital marquees at five or six locations across the City to deliver important messages to our residents and other stakeholders about
government resources and assistance, health and safety
information, City events and programs, and other news and public services announcements that may benefit the community. These marquees will include the park name, the City logo, and an 8’x11’ digital sign.
PROJECT NEED:
During the pandemic, it became evident that many residents were not receiving vital communications from the City. By installing signs in strategically located places where residents frequently spend time and along high-traffic roadways, the City will improve its communication and public outreach. This project will create prominent communications platforms that will increase visibility of the important work the City does, and residents will learn to rely on these digital marquees for important information about their community and local government.

DISCUSSION
Staff is recommending renewal with ICRMA, a joint powers authority formed in 1980 in accordance with California Government Code Section 6500. ICRMA’s purpose is to provide: 1) excess and re-insurance to protect members from extensive financial debt due to large claims, settlements, and judgments; 2) group insurance purchasing power that can offer broader coverage at a lower cost; 3) rate stability; and 4) protect individual member cities through pooling of losses and self-insurance. ICRMA also offers to its members actuarial services, appraisal services, loss control assessments and recommendations, safety trainings, claims audits, contract risk transfer consultation, and other services and resources. Currently composed of 14 California cities, Santa Ana joined ICRMA in July 2019.
For this renewal period:
• The City’s Workers’ Compensation coverage experienced an increase of approximately 12%.
• The City’s Liability and Property premiums increased approximately 10%, which overall is a very good outcome.
• The City’s Property & Equipment Program premium decreased approximately 10%.
• Overall, the City’s insurance coverages remain the same with a lower than expected increase in premiums on the Liability and Property program and an average increase in premiums on the Workers’ Compensation program.
Cost of insurance continues to increase primarily due to the following ongoing reasons:
1. An insurance market with continually decreasing excess carriers willing to quote municipal government entities in California, primarily those with police departments;
2. High dollar jury awards of litigated matters against public entities;
3. High dollar settlements of litigated and non-litigated matters;
4. Rising cost of repairs and replacement of damaged vehicles, property, and equipment;
5. Increased number of claims filed against the City resulting from aging infrastructure including sidewalks and streets; and
6. Increased number of claims filed against the City resulting from damage caused by City Council 15 – 2 8/6/2024

manner specified in Section 3 of this Agreement. If a contract is cancelled for these reasons, the Owner shall pay a cancellation fee to the County Auditor as set forth in Government Code Section 50286. This cancellation fee shall be a percentage (currently set at twelve and one-half (12 ½) percent by Government Code Section 50286) of the current fair market value of the property at the time of the cancellation, as determined by the county assessor, without regard to any restriction imposed pursuant to this Agreement.
b. If the Historic Property is destroyed by earthquake, fire, flood or other natural disaster such that in the opinion of the City Building Official more than sixty (60) percent of the original fabric of the structure must be replaced, this Agreement shall be canceled immediately because, in effect, the historic value of the structure will have been destroyed. No fee shall be imposed in the case of destruction by acts of God or natural disaster. c.

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.
b. City does not waive any claim of default by the Owner if City does not enforce or cancel this Agreement. All other remedies at law or in equity which are not otherwise provided for in this Agreement or in City’s regulations governing historic properties are available to City to pursue in the event that there is a breach of this Agreement.

Substantially intact and enhanced by its landscaping, this is an example of a modestly sized Spanish Colonial Revival home.
The tiled roof is cross-gabled and moderately pitched over the front of the building, while the rear of the house is flat-roofed and circled by a tile-edged parapet. Smooth stucco covers the exterior of the building. Clay pipe vents pierce the gable ends. A porch is recessed beneath the side gable on the north half the façade. Wooden posts with carved brackets support the roof overhang and a waist high stucco wall encloses the porch space. A tripartite window and the entry open onto the porch. In an unusual departure from a standard Spanish roof configuration, a small, front gabled dormer is located above the porch. The southern half of the façade contains a large, picture window, to which an aluminum canopy has been added, offset to the south and a tall, slender window to the north. A three-sided bay projects from the south elevation. Although reroofed, the house retains its design integrity. *P3b. Resource Attributes:

The Levengood House is architecturally significant as a representative example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style, one of many that characterize the Wilshire Square neighborhood. The house and garage were constructed in 1930 at a cost of $3,650.00 for Mrs. Mary Leavengood, who had occupied the residence by 1931. The house remained in the Levengood family until at least 1952, according to city building permits. According the 1991 Wilshire Square Home Tour brochure, Mary Levengood was the widow of Frank Levengood, a farmer who struck oil in his bean fields. Mrs. Levengood raised her granddaughter in this house, and lived here until she died in the late 1950s. She also built the house next door, on the corner, for her son.

*B10. Significance (continued):
Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The civic and commercial core of the community was centered around the intersection of Main and Fourth Streets. Stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad and incorporation as a city in 1886, and selection as the seat of the newly created County of Orange in 1889, the city grew outwards, with residential neighborhoods initially developing to the north, south, and east of the city center. Agricultural uses predominated in the outlying areas, with cultivated fields and orchards dotted with widely scattered farmhouses.
The Levengood House is located in Wilshire Square, a neighborhood located south of the city center and bounded by West McFadden Avenue on the north, West Edinger Avenue on the south, South Main Street on the east, and South Flower Street on the west. This area remained agricultural in use into the early twentieth century, the landscape dotted with walnut and orange groves. The 1912 plat map of Santa Ana showed South Main Street and Fairview Avenue (now McFadden Avenue) as the only streets in the area, with the majority of the property held by a few landowners: N. Palmer, H. K.
Hanson, O’Brien, and Lewis.
Development of Wilshire Square began circa 1923, when newspaper advertisements for newly subdivided lots costing between $635.00 and $1,875.00 boasted “five foot sidewalks, curbs, electricity, gas, sewer, city water and ornamental trees” (Santa Ana Register, April 12, 1923). By 1923, all of Flower, Garnsey, Van Ness, Ross, and Borchard and portions of the remaining streets had been laid out. Lathrop Junior High School, designed by architect Frederick Eley in 1921 (demolished circa 1970), was constructed on the southwest corner of Fairview and Main and became an anchor of the neighborhood. In 1925, over 65 homes had been built in Wilshire Square, according to a count of addresses listed in the city directories. A 1927 map indicated that the area was zoned for single-family residences, except the east side of Sycamore, which was set aside for “courts and apartments,” apparently as a buffer for the “neighborhood business” zone on South Main Street. By 1930, maps of the City showed that, with the exception of a gap between Borchard and Edinger Avenues on Birch, Broadway, and Sycamore, all the streets in Wilshire Square were in place. Mapped by the Sanborn Company between 1931 and 1940, the neighborhood was substantially developed prior to the beginning of World War II.
Built in three phases, Wilshire Square primarily showcases the revival architectural styles popular during the first phase, circa 1923 to 1931, when 326 homes were built: variations of the Tudor Revival, the Spanish Colonial Revival, and the Colonial Revival. A handful of Craftsman bungalows completed the picture. A second phase, from 1935 to 1942, marked the recovery from the Great Depression and the war preparation years, and resulted in another 171 homes. The post World War II building boom added 91 homes, many in the newly popular California Ranch style. Enhanced by the canopies of mature trees that line many of the streets, Wilshire Square developed as a middle class neighborhood of white and blue collar workers. Homes were both owner and speculator built, and, regardless of style, are unified by their one-story height, scale, common setbacks, and the placement of detached garages in the rear of each property. Retaining these qualities today (2003), the neighborhood was recognized for excellence in urban design by the Orange County Chapter of the American Institute of Architects in 1997.
The Levengood House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, as a building with the “distinguishing characteristics of an architectural style or period.” The combination of stucco walls and tiled roof and treatment of the patio with its rustic wood posts exhibited on the house are typical features of the Spanish Colonial Revival and demonstrate that the style could be used effectively on both large as well as relatively modest homes. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Contributive” because it “contributes to the overall character and history” of Wilshire Square and “is a good example of period architecture” as an illustration of the Spanish Colonial Revival style. Character defining exterior features of the Levengood House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: materials and finishes (stucco, wood, tile); roof configuration and treatment; massing and composition; original doors and windows; porch; and architectural detailing (porch posts, brackets, and beam).

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 City Council 16 – 16 8/6/2024

Topic: HPPA No. 2024-03 – The Levengood House (1205 South Birch Street)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute a Historic Property Preservation Agreement (Mills Act) with Michael Altshuler for the property located at 1205 South Birch Street, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney (Exhibit 1).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Michael Altshuler is requesting approval to execute a Mills Act Agreement with the City of Santa Ana at an existing residence located at 1205 South Birch Street that is currently listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties.
DISCUSSION
Project Location and Site Description
The subject property, known as the Levengood House, consists of an existing one-story Spanish Colonial Revival style residence that is approximately 1,590 square feet in size on a 7,253-square-foot residential lot (Exhibit 2). The Levengood House was added to the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties (“Register”) in 2003, categorized as “Contributive.”
Analysis of the Issues
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. The property is listed on the Register and categorized as Landmark, making it eligible for a Mills Act Agreement. 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 Historic Resources Commission c -1 5/8/2024

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 In 2003, the Historic Resources Commission placed the Levengood House on the Register and within the “Contributive” category as a representative example of the distinguishing characteristics of an architectural period, and because it contributes to the overall character and history of Wilshire Square and is a good example of period architecture. Character-defining exterior features of the Levengood House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: materials and finishes (stucco, wood, tile); roof configuration and treatment; massing and composition; original doors and windows; porch; and architectural detailing (porch posts, brackets, and beam).
In 2011, a permit was issued to remove a non-original garden window in place of a wood casement window with three divided lights on the upper portion of the window. The exterior modification was consistent with the Secretary of Interior Standards for Rehabilitation. It was also noted during the 2024 staff site visit that the aforementioned item was implemented at the subject property.
Additionally, during the 2024 site visit, staff noted the Hollywood driveway paving requires repair, and that some rear and side windows that have been replaced over time with noncompatible windows, requiring restoration of wood windows with ogee lugs. Staff will work with the property owner to address these concerns as part of the rehabilitation and restoration requirements during the duration of the Mills Act Agreement for this property.
Additional future improvements proposed by the homeowner during the initial ten years of the Mills Act Agreement include reroof, garage wall repair, dry-rot removal from walls, termite treatment, window rehabilitation, repaint exterior, front porch flooring rehabilitation, and general on-going maintenance. Staff will ensure that the proposed work will be performed sensitively and will maintain the property’s character-defining features as part of the Mills Act Agreement for this property.
As part of the Mills Act approval process, staff will work with the applicant to ensure that a bronze plaque is installed honoring and recognizing the structure. The plaque will include the historic name, address, year built, and local historic register designation.
Lastly, the site will be subject to general maintenance and upkeep requirements including, but not limited to, replacement or restoration of damaged character-defining features, landscaping upkeep, painting, etc. These improvements will be subject to review and approval by staff. Upon consideration of the application, it is recommended that the City enter into a Historic Property Preservation Agreement.

HPPA No. 2024-03 – The Levengood House (1205 South Birch Street) May 8, 2024
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15331 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 31 – Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation) as these actions are designed to preserve historic resources. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2024-17, will be filed for this project.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Historic Property Preservation Agreement will reduce the Property Tax revenue account 01102002-50011 to the City by an estimated $1,097.57 annually, for a period of not less than ten years.

Prehistoric Historic Both
ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Mission/Spanish Colonial Revival
The Mission/Spanish Colonial Revival style, as its name implies, encompasses two major subcategories. The Mission Revival vocabulary, popular between 1890 and 1920, drew its inspiration from the missions of the Southwest. Identifying features include curved parapets (or espadaña); red tiled roofs and coping; low-pitched roofs, often with overhanging eaves; porch roofs supported by large, square piers; arches; and wall surfaces commonly covered in smooth stucco. The Spanish Colonial Revival flourished between 1915 and 1940, reaching its apex during the 1920s and 1930s. The movement received widespread attention after the PanamaCalifornia Exposition in San Diego in 1915, where lavish interpretations of Spanish and Mexican prototypes were showcased. Easily recognizable hallmarks of the Spanish Colonial Revival are low-pitched roofs, usually with little or no overhangs and red tile roof coverings, flat roofs surrounded by tiled parapets; and stuccoed walls. The Spanish vocabulary also includes arches; asymmetry; balconies and patios; window grilles; and decorative elements of wood, wrought iron, tile, or stone.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION:
The Levengood House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, as a building with the “distinguishing characteristics of an architectural style or period.” Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Contributive” because it “contributes to the overall character and history” of Wilshire Square and “is a good example of period architecture” as an illustration of the Spanish Colonial Revival style (Municipal Code Section 30-2.2).” EXPLANATION OF CODES:

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries.) Substantially intact and enhanced by its landscaping, this is an example of a modestly sized Spanish Colonial Revival home.
The tiled roof is cross-gabled and moderately pitched over the front of the building, while the rear of the house is flat-roofed and circled by a tile-edged parapet. Smooth stucco covers the exterior of the building. Clay pipe vents pierce the gable ends. A porch is recessed beneath the side gable on the north half the façade. Wooden posts with carved brackets support the roof overhang and a waist high stucco wall encloses the porch space. A tripartite window and the entry open onto the porch. In an unusual departure from a standard Spanish roof configuration, a small, front gabled dormer is located above the porch. The southern half of the façade contains a large, picture window, to which an aluminum canopy has been added, offset to the south and a tall, slender window to the north. A three-sided bay projects from the south elevation. Although reroofed, the house retains its design integrity. *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP2. Single-family Property *P4.

Also address integrity) The Levengood House is architecturally significant as a representative example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style, one of many that characterize the Wilshire Square neighborhood. The house and garage were constructed in 1930 at a cost of $3,650.00 for Mrs. Mary Leavengood, who had occupied the residence by 1931. The house remained in the Levengood family until at least 1952, according to city building permits. According the 1991 Wilshire Square Home Tour brochure, Mary Levengood was the widow of Frank Levengood, a farmer who struck oil in his bean fields. Mrs. Levengood raised her granddaughter in this house, and lived here until she died in the late 1950s. She also built the house next door, on the corner, for her son.

*B10. Significance (continued):
Santa Ana was founded by William Spurgeon in 1869 as a speculative town site on part of the Spanish land grant known as Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. The civic and commercial core of the community was centered around the intersection of Main and Fourth Streets. Stimulated by the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad and incorporation as a city in 1886, and selection as the seat of the newly created County of Orange in 1889, the city grew outwards, with residential neighborhoods initially developing to the north, south, and east of the city center. Agricultural uses predominated in the outlying areas, with cultivated fields and orchards dotted with widely scattered farmhouses.
The Levengood House is located in Wilshire Square, a neighborhood located south of the city center and bounded by West McFadden Avenue on the north, West Edinger Avenue on the south, South Main Street on the east, and South Flower Street on the west. This area remained agricultural in use into the early twentieth century, the landscape dotted with walnut and orange groves. The 1912 plat map of Santa Ana showed South Main Street and Fairview Avenue (now McFadden Avenue) as the only streets in the area, with the majority of the property held by a few landowners: N. Palmer, H. K.
Hanson, O’Brien, and Lewis.
Development of Wilshire Square began circa 1923, when newspaper advertisements for newly subdivided lots costing between $635.00 and $1,875.00 boasted “five foot sidewalks, curbs, electricity, gas, sewer, city water and ornamental trees” (Santa Ana Register, April 12, 1923). By 1923, all of Flower, Garnsey, Van Ness, Ross, and Borchard and portions of the remaining streets had been laid out. Lathrop Junior High School, designed by architect Frederick Eley in 1921 (demolished circa 1970), was constructed on the southwest corner of Fairview and Main and became an anchor of the neighborhood. In 1925, over 65 homes had been built in Wilshire Square, according to a count of addresses listed in the city directories. A 1927 map indicated that the area was zoned for single-family residences, except the east side of Sycamore, which was set aside for “courts and apartments,” apparently as a buffer for the “neighborhood business” zone on South Main Street. By 1930, maps of the City showed that, with the exception of a gap between Borchard and Edinger Avenues on Birch, Broadway, and Sycamore, all the streets in Wilshire Square were in place. Mapped by the Sanborn Company between 1931 and 1940, the neighborhood was substantially developed prior to the beginning of World War II.
Built in three phases, Wilshire Square primarily showcases the revival architectural styles popular during the first phase, circa 1923 to 1931, when 326 homes were built: variations of the Tudor Revival, the Spanish Colonial Revival, and the Colonial Revival. A handful of Craftsman bungalows completed the picture. A second phase, from 1935 to 1942, marked the recovery from the Great Depression and the war preparation years, and resulted in another 171 homes. The post World War II building boom added 91 homes, many in the newly popular California Ranch style. Enhanced by the canopies of mature trees that line many of the streets, Wilshire Square developed as a middle class neighborhood of white and blue collar workers. Homes were both owner and speculator built, and, regardless of style, are unified by their one-story height, scale, common setbacks, and the placement of detached garages in the rear of each property. Retaining these qualities today (2003), the neighborhood was recognized for excellence in urban design by the Orange County Chapter of the American Institute of Architects in 1997.
The Levengood House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, as a building with the “distinguishing characteristics of an architectural style or period.” The combination of stucco walls and tiled roof and treatment of the patio with its rustic wood posts exhibited on the house are typical features of the Spanish Colonial Revival and demonstrate that the style could be used effectively on both large as well as relatively modest homes. Additionally, the house has been categorized as “Contributive” because it “contributes to the overall character and history” of Wilshire Square and “is a good example of period architecture” as an illustration of the Spanish Colonial Revival style. Character defining exterior features of the Levengood House that should be preserved include, but may not be limited to: materials and finishes (stucco, wood, tile); roof configuration and treatment; massing and composition; original doors and windows; porch; and architectural detailing (porch posts, brackets, and beam).

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 Resources Commission c-24 5/8/2024

5. Cancellation.
a. The City, following a duly noticed public hearing by the City Council as set forth in Government Code Section 50280, et. seq., may cancel this Agreement if it determines that the Owner have breached any of the conditions of this Agreement, or has allowed the property to deteriorate to the point that it no longer meets the standards for a qualified Historic Property, or if the City determines that the Owner have failed to restore or rehabilitate the property in the manner specified in Section 3 of this Agreement. If a contract is cancelled for these reasons, the Owner shall pay a cancellation fee to the County Auditor as set forth in Government Code Section 50286. This cancellation fee shall be a percentage (currently set at twelve and one-half (12 ½) percent by Government Code Section 50286) of the current fair market value of the property at the time of the cancellation, as determined by the county assessor, without regard to any restriction imposed pursuant to this Agreement.
b. If the Historic Property is destroyed by earthquake, fire, flood or other natural disaster such that in the opinion of the City Building Official more than sixty (60) percent of the original fabric of the structure must be replaced, this Agreement shall be canceled immediately because, in effect, the historic value of the structure will have been destroyed. No fee shall be imposed in the case of destruction by acts of God or natural disaster. c. If the Historic Property is acquired by eminent domain and the City Council determines that the acquisition frustrates the purpose of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be cancelled and no fee imposed, as specified in Government Code Section 50288.

Prehistoric Historic Both
ARCHITECTURAL STYLE: Craftsman
Closely related to the English Arts and Crafts Movement, American Craftsman architecture was popularized by The Craftsman magazine and architects such as Charles and Henry Greene of Pasadena. It drew from the wood building traditions of Japan and Switzerland as well as the medieval themes favored by the Arts and Crafts philosophers.
Craftsman architecture stressed honesty of form, materials, and workmanship, eschewing applied decoration in favor of the straightforward expression of structure. A new appreciation of nature was evident in horizontal lines that reached out to embrace the landscape and the incorporation of capacious porches into building plans. Primarily a residential style, Craftsman architecture can be identified by low pitched gable and hipped roofs with exposed rafters and beams in deep overhangs; wood lap or shingle siding and an occasional use of stucco; extensive use of stone or brick as a secondary material; horizontal emphasis apparent in roof lines, headers, and battered porch supports; and broadly proportioned wood framed windows, often clustered in bands. Craftsman homes were built from circa 1902 until the early 1920s.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION:
The Dixon-Heemstra House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for embodiment of the distinguishing characteristics of a late Craftsman style residential building. The recommended categorization is “Key” because it has a distinctive architectural style and quality reflective of the Craftsman style (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2(2)).

Significance: Theme Residential Architecture Area Santa Ana Period of Significance: 1923 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 Dixon-Heemstra House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Craftsman style house in Santa Ana. The original building permit is dated June 1923, which indicates it was built as a single family residence and garage for owner and homebuilder W.H. Dixon for $4,000. Dixon, affiliated with W.H. Dixon and Son, was a local contractor and builder in Santa Ana and greater Orange County (Santa Ana Register, March 30, 1930). The original architect is unknown. In 1923, newspapers advertised the sale of the subject property as “Dixon’s Durable Dwelling” built in the “exclusive highly restricted Strong tract” (Santa Ana Register, October 25, 1923). City directories note that the property was vacant in 1924; however, from 1925 to 1929 Benjamin Heemstra is listed as the building's occupant. From 1930 to 1931, P.H. Budd is the known occupant, who contributed to Orange County’s first engineer report by Engineer Thomas Means in 1931. Budd later became an engineer for the Orange County flood-control district in 1934 and was ultimately appointed as the Orange County floodcontrol engineer in 1952 (Santa Ana Register, December 28, 1952).
