Meeting: City Council
Date: January 20, 2026
Department: Community Development - Planning
Submitted by: Mario Anaya, Community Development Director Agenda Title: Historic-Cultural Landmark Nominations

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Pass-to-print an ordinance approving and designating the Tulare Veterans Memorial Building, Hoyt House, T29A Convair Airplane, B-17 Bomber, and F-4 Phantom Jet as City of Tulare Historic-Cultural Landmarks, and adding them to the Local Register of Historic-Cultural Landmarks pursuant to Tulare Municipal Code Chapter 10.38, as described herein.

SUMMARY
This is a request by the property owners and caretakers of the buildings and objects listed below, to designate them as City of Tulare Historic-Cultural Landmarks and add them to the Local Register of Historic-Cultural Landmarks.
• Tulare Veterans Memorial Building. 1771 East Tulare Avenue (177-200-005). The subject property is zoned PL (Public Lands), and the General Plan Designation is Public/Quasi Public.

Constructed in 1956, Tulare Veterans Memorial Building Hall was constructed to serve as a living building memorial to Veterans of WWII. Known for its impressive size and its original pink color, it has hosted thousands of people and events over the past eight decades, including famous individuals and landmark Tulare events.
• Hoyt House. 237 North L Street (176-112-006). The subject property is zoned C-3 (Retail Commercial), and the General Plan Designation is Central Business District. The Hoyt House is a two-story late Victorian-Colonial Revival home that was constructed in 1912-1913 and was the home to Hazel Hoyt who was a long-life public servant in the City of Tulare. Hoyt was the first female city clerk in the city. The Hoyt House is one of few last remaining two-story VictorianColonial Revival residences in Tulare. The Hoyt House has been operating as a restaurant since 1995.
• T29A Convair Airplane. 240 North L Street (176-121-025). The subject property is zoned C-3 (Retail Commercial), and the General Plan Designation is Central Business District. The T29A Convair is regarded as a significant piece of aviation history, used as a “Flying Classroom” for USAF and USN servicemembers training throughout the Cold War. The “airplane on L Street” is one of two known surviving T29A Convairs and is the first of its kind eatery in the city of Tulare. It was first built in 1951 and was moved to 240 North L Street in 2003 to operate as a restaurant. • B-17 Bomber. Currently at Mefford Field Airport (191-100-018). The subject property is zoned M2 (Heavy Industrial), and the General Plan Designation is Service Commercial. The B-17G Bomber at Mefford Field honors Veterans from WWII. It was first built in 1945 in Burbank, California. The bomber holds a unique dual military and local historical significance. She is the last surviving B-17 used in the “Operation Crossroads” atomic testing, and a later date, she was flown to Tulare, piloted by Tulare’s military hero, General Maurice Preston. With its location alongside Highway 99 at the southern end of town, the Flying Fortress has welcomed millions of passersby to the city of Tulare since 1958.
• F-4 Phantom Jet. Currently at Mefford Field Airport (191-100-018). The subject property is zoned M-2 (Heavy Industrial), and the General Plan Designation is Service Commercial. The F-4 Phantom jet at Mefford Field honors Veterans from the Vietnam war. The F-4 Phantom Jet was Item #: 8.1
Public Hearing

8.1 Public Hearing 1 of 59
first commissioned in 1966. It never saw combat but was used in the United States Air Force for 20 years and used in many military bases around the world which included the United Kingdom, Spain, and Libya. With its location alongside Highway 99 at the southern end of town, the Phantom has welcomed millions of passersby to the city of Tulare since 1994.

Section 10.38 of the updated City of Tulare Zoning Ordinance includes standards to preserve, promote, and enhance the Historic-Cultural Landmarks and designated historic districts of the city for the educational, cultural, economic, and general welfare of the public. The purpose of the zone amendments would be to designate the aforementioned buildings and objects as local Historic-Cultural Landmarks and apply the Historic-Cultural Landmark Overlay Zone to the properties or objects.

Once a building, structure, object, site, or district is designated as a Historic-Cultural Landmark it will enable the Historic-Cultural Landmarks Advisory Committee, the Planning Commission, and the City Council, to work with property owners and the community to protect and review changes to these local landmarks and districts which have a distinctive character or a special historic, architectural, aesthetic or cultural value to this City, State, and nation. This would assist in implementing the Tulare General Plan’s goals and vision with respect to the following:
• To continue to safeguard the heritage of this city by preserving and regulating its historic buildings, structures, objects, sites, and districts which reflect elements of the City’s historic, cultural, social, economic, political and architectural history
• To continue to preserve and enhance the environmental quality and safety of these landmarks and districts.
• To continue to establish, stabilize and improve property values and to foster economic development.

At its December 8, 2025, meeting, the City of Tulare Planning Commission voted 3-0 to recommend designation of these buildings and objects as Historic-Cultural Landmarks due to architectural significance, as well as the important role the landmarks have played in the history and cultural heritage of the United States of America, as well as Tulare’s own history.

There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action does not constitute a “project” pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Agenda Title: Capital Improvements Project Dashboard for January 2026

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Accept the Capital Improvements Project Dashboard for January 2026.

SUMMARY
On December 16, 2014, the Tulare City Council adopted the Tulare Project Management System Program Policy (TPMS). The goal of the TPMS is to help the City accomplish significant projects on time, within budget, and in accordance with each project’s clearly defined scope. The TPMS utilizes a systematic approach to project management with the following goals:
• Establish consistency in how projects are managed,
• Create department 5-year project plans,
• Improve pre-planning and preparation,
• Identify and implement management policies and procedures, • Improve project cost tracking and project delivery,
• Formalize and improve project reporting, and
• Review and evaluate project successes or failures upon completion in order to improve on future projects.

Pursuant to the City Council’s request, staff provides quarterly Capital Improvement Project Dashboards for all major capital projects that fall under City Council’s purview. The dashboard provides a visual summary of the overall progress of the projects so that City Council is aware of their status. The dashboards identify the project number, project title, project phase, project manager, start date, end date, budget, expenditures/encumbrances, and special notes regarding the status and/or issues affecting the project.

The attached Capital Improvements Project Dashboard reflects the quarterly status of active projects as of January 2026. The dashboard uses a color metric for the completion status graphic (pie chart) that reflects the phase each project is in. BLUE shading indicates that the project is in the Design phase, GREEN shading indicates that the project is in the Environmental or Right-of-Way Acquisition phase, and ORANGE shading indicates that the project is in the Construction or Implementation phase.

There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
