VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT

INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK
1 D U D E K SEPTEMBER 022 2022

Executive Summary
The purpose of this report is to determine if the Vista Melrose Subdivision Residential Project (proposed Project) in the City of Vista, San Diego County, California would impact any historical resources pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Project proposes to redevelop a 5.55-acre site to include 34 single-family residences, which would result in a proposed density of 6.44 dwelling units per acre. The proposed Project would also include recreational opportunities such as a tot lot and dog park.

Urban Advisory & Building Group LLC retained Dudek to complete this historical resources technical report to identify all historical resources (if any) on the Project site to determine whether the proposed Project would result in a significant impact to historical resources under CEQA. None of the buildings on the Project site are currently listed under any national, state, or local landmark or historic district programs. Two of the three parcels that comprise the Projectsite contain buildingsthat are more than 45 years of age and required evaluation as a potential historical resource:
■ Property 1: 560 South Melrose Drive (APN 166-280-60-00), one church building constructed in 1958 ■ Property 2: 622 South Melrose Drive (APN 166-280-18-00), one single-family residence constructed in 1949
This report includes the results of a California Historical Resources Information System records search; an intensive survey of the Project site by a qualified architectural historian; building development and archival research; development of an appropriate historic context for the evaluation of the Project site; and recordation and evaluation of one church property and one single-family residential property over 45 years old for historical significance and integrity in consideration of National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), and City of Vista designation criteria and integrity requirements. This report was prepared in conformance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 for historical resources and all applicable local guidelines and regulations.

A California Historical Resources Information System records search was completed by staff at the South Coastal Information Center on August 1, 2022. The records search results identify that 53 previous cultural resources studies have been conducted within 1 mile of the Project site. Of the 53 previous studies, two studies intersect the Project site. No cultural resources were identified within the Project site as a result of the overlapping studies.

As a result of Dudek's extensive archival research, field survey, record search, and property significance evaluations, no historical resources were identified within the Project site, nor were any adjacent cultural resources identified that could be indirectly impacted by proposed Project activities. The finding for built environment cultural resources for the proposed Project under CEQA is No Impact. As the proposed Project would have no impact on historical resources, no further study is required.

1 Introduction

1.1 Project Description and Location
Project Description
The proposed Vista Melrose Residential Project (Project) consists of a residential development within the City of Vista (City) at 560 S. Melrose Drive, 622 S. Melrose Drive and APN#166-280-61-00. The approximately 5.55-acre site includes Assessor's Parcel Numbers [APNs] 166-280-60-00, 166-280-61-00, and 166-280-18-00. The properties at 560 S. Melrose Drive and APN 166-280-61-00 are both currently zoned 0-P (Office Professional) and a corresponding General Plan designation of Commercial Office (CO). The property at 622 S. Melrose Drive is currently zoned R-1 (Residential) and has a corresponding General Plan designation of Medium Low Density Residential (MILD). The applicant, TTLC Vista Melrose, LLC, proposes to rezone all three properties to R-1-13 (Residential) with a corresponding General Plan change to Medium Density Residential (MD). Furthermore, the applicant proposes a thirty-seven (37) lot Tentative Subdivision Map to redevelop the site to include thirty-four (34) single-family residences, which would result in a proposed density of 6.1 dwelling units per acre, a private street, private park with a tot lot and a dog park. The project will utilize the City of Vista Small Lot Subdivision standards per Vista Development Code Section 18.33 to achieve their project design. The proposed project would also include landscaping and offsite street and utility improvements.

Project Site
The Project site is located in the central portion of the City of Vista in San Diego County, CA at 560 South Melrose Drive (Property 1) and 622 South Melrose Drive (Property 2) (APNs 166-280-60-00, 166-280-61-00, and 166-280-18-00), which are currently occupied by a church and a single-family residence (Figure 1, Project Location).

Two buildings over 45 years of age are located on the Project site. The approximately 5.55-acre Project site is bound by Matagual Drive to the north, South Melrose Drive to the west, commercial and residential development to the south, and residential development to the east (Figure 2, Project Site).

1.2 Project Personnel

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT

1.3 Regulatory Framework
Federal
National Register of Historic Places
Although there is no federal nexus for this Project, resources were evaluated in consideration of National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) designation criteria.

The NRHP is the United States' official list of districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects worthy of preservation.

Overseen by the National Park Service under the U.S. Department of the Interior, the NRHP was authorized under the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended. Its listings encompass all National Historic Landmarks and historic areas administered by the National Park Service.

NRHP guidelines for the evaluation of historic significance were developed to be flexible and to recognize the accomplishments of all who have made significant contributions to the nation's history and heritage. Its criteria are designed to guide state and local governments, federal agencies, and others in evaluating potential entries in the NRHP. For a property to be listed in or determined eligible for listing, it must be demonstrated to possess integrity and to meet at least one of the following criteria:

The quality of significance in American history, architecture, archaeology, engineering, and culture is present in districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects that possess integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association, and:

A. That are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history; or B. That are associated with the lives of persons significant in our past; or C. That embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction; or D. That have yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history.

In addition to these basic evaluation criteria, the NRHP outlines further criteria considerations for significance.

Moved properties; birthplaces; cemeteries; reconstructed buildings, structures, or objects; commemorative properties; and properties that have achieved significance within the past 50 years are generally not eligible for the NRHP. The criteria considerations are exceptions to these rules, and they allow for the following types of resources to be NRHP eligible (NPS 1995, p. 25):

A a religious property deriving primary significance from architectural or artistic distinction or historical importance; B a building or structure removed from its original location, but which is significant primarily for architectural value, or which is the surviving structure most importantly associated with a historic person or event; C a birthplace or grave of a historical figure of outstanding importance if there is no appropriate site or building directly associated with his or her productive life; D a cemetery which derives its primary significance from graves of persons of transcendent importance, from age, from distinctive design features, from association with historic events; 1 D U D E K SEPTEMBER 022 2
2022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT E a reconstructed building when accurately executed in a suitable environment and presented in a dignified manner as part of a restoration master plan, and when no other building or structure with the same association has survived;
F a property primarily commemorative in intent if design, age, tradition, or symbolic value has invested it with its own exceptional significance; or
G a property achieving significance within the past 50 years if it is of exceptional importance.

Once the significance of a resource has been determined, the resource then must be assessed for integrity. Integrity is 1) the ability of a property to illustrate the history and 2) possession of the physical features necessary to convey the aspect of history with which it is associated (NPS 1995, p. 44). The integrity evaluation is grounded in understanding a property's physical features and how they relate to the property's significance. Historic properties either retain integrity (that is, convey their significance), or they do not. To maintain integrity, a property will always possess several, and usually most, of the seven aspects of integrity (NPS 1997, pp. 44-45):

1. Location is where the historic property was constructed or where the historic event occurred.

2. Design is the combination of elements that create the form, plan, space, structure, and style.

3. Setting is the physical environment of a historic property.

4. Materials are the physical elements combined or deposited during a particular period and in a specific pattern or configuration to form a historic property.

5. Workmanship is the physical evidence of crafts of a particular culture or people during any period in history or prehistory.

6. Feeling is the property's expression of a particular period's aesthetic or historic sense.

7. Association is the direct link between an important historic event or person and a historic property.

State
California Register of Historical Resources
In California, the term "historical resource" includes but is not limited to "any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record, or manuscript which is historically or archaeologically significant, or is significant in the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educational, social, political, military, or cultural annals of California" (California Public Resources Code Section 5020.10)). In 1992, the California legislature established the CRHR "to be used by state and local agencies, private groups, and citizens to identify the state's historical resources and to indicate what properties are to be protected, to the extent prudent and feasible, from substantial adverse change" (California Public Resources Code Section 5024.1(a)). The criteria for listing resources on the CRHR were expressly developed to be in accordance with previously established criteria developed for listing in the NRHP, enumerated below. According to California Public Resources Code Section 5024.1(c)(1-4), a resource is considered historically significant if it (i) retains "substantial integrity," and (ii) meets at least one of the following criteria:

1. Is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of California's history and cultural heritage.

2. Is associated with the lives of persons important in our past.

3. Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the work of an important creative individual, or possesses high artistic values.

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT

4. Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history.

In order to understand the historic importance of a resource, sufficient time must have passed to obtain a scholarly perspective on the events or individuals associated with the resource. A resource less than 50 years old may be considered for listing in the CRHR if it can be demonstrated that sufficient time has passed to understand its historical importance (see 14 CCR 4852(d)(2)).

The CRHR protects cultural resources by requiring evaluations of the significance of prehistoric and historic resources. The criteria for the CRHR are nearly identical to those for the NRHP, and properties listed or formally designated as eligible for listing in the NRHP are automatically listed in the CRHR, as are the state landmarks and points of interest. The CRHR also includes properties designated under local ordinances or identified through local historical resource surveys.

California Environmental Quality Act
As described further below, the following CEQA statutes and CEQA Guidelines are of relevance to the analysis of archaeological, historic, and tribal cultural resources:
■ California Public Resources Code Section 21083.2(g) defines "unique archaeological resource." ■ California Public Resources Code Section 21084.1 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(a) define "historical resources." In addition, CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(b) defines the phrase "substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource." It also defines the circumstances when a project would materially impair the significance of an historical resource. ■ California Public Resources Code Section 21074(a) defines "tribal cultural resources." ■ California Public Resources Code Section 5097.98 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(e) set forth standards and steps to be employed following the accidental discovery of human remains in any location other than a dedicated ceremony.
■ California Public Resources Code Sections 21083.2(b)-(c) and CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.4 provide information regarding the mitigation framework for archaeological and historic resources, including examples of preservation -in -place mitigation measures; preservation -in -place is the preferred manner of mitigating impacts to significant archaeological sites because it maintains the relationship between artifacts and the archaeological context and may also help avoid conflict with religious or cultural values of groups associated with the archaeological site(s).

More specifically, under CEQA, a project may have a significant effect on the environment if it may cause "a substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource" (California Public Resources Code Section 21084.1; CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(b)). If a site is either listed or eligible for listing in the CRHR, or if it is included in a local register of historic resources or identified as significant in a historical resources survey (meeting the requirements of California Public Resources Code Section 5024.1(q)), it is a "historical resource" and is presumed to be historically or culturally significant for purposes of CEQA (California Public Resources Code Section 21084.1; CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(a)). The lead agency is not precluded from determining that a resource is a historical resource even if it does not fall within this presumption (California Public Resources Code Section 21084.1; CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(a)).

D U D E K 14613 4
SEPTEMBER 2022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT A "substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource" reflecting a significant effect under CEQA means "physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the resource or its immediate surroundings such that the significance of an historical resource would be materially impaired" (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(b)(1); California Public Resources Code Section 5020.1(q)). In turn, CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(b)(2) states the significance of an historical resource is materially impaired when a project:

1. Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of an historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its inclusion in, or eligibility for, inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources; or

2. Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics that account for its inclusion in a local register of historical resources pursuantto section 5020.1(k) of the Public Resources Code or its identification in an historical resources survey meeting the requirements of section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code, unless the public agency reviewing the effects of the project establishes by a preponderance of evidence that the resource is not historically or culturally significant; or

3. Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of a historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its eligibility for inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources as determined by a lead agency for purposes of CEQA.

Pursuant to these sections, the CEQA inquiry begins with evaluating whether a Project site contains any "historical resources," then evaluates whether that project will cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource such that the resource's historical significance is materially impaired.

If it can be demonstrated that a project will cause damage to a unique archaeological resource, the lead agency may require reasonable efforts be made to permit any or all of these resources to be preserved in place or left in an undisturbed state. To the extent that they cannot be left undisturbed, mitigation measures are required (California Public Resources Code Section 21083.2[a], [b], and [c]).

California Public Resources Code Section 21083.2(g) defines a unique archaeological resource as an archaeological artifact, object, or site about which it can be clearly demonstrated that without merely adding to the current body of knowledge, there is a high probability that it meets any of the following criteria:

1. Contains information needed to answer important scientific research questions and that there is a demonstrable public interest in that information.

2. Has a special and particular quality such as being the oldest of its type or the best available example of its type.

3. Is directly associated with a scientifically recognized important prehistoric or historic event or person.

Impacts to non -unique archaeological resources are generally not considered a significant environmental impact (California Public Resources Code Section 21083.2(a); CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(c)(4)). However, if a non -unique archaeological resource qualifies as tribal cultural resource (California Public Resources Code Section 21074(c), 21083.2(h)), further consideration of significant impacts is required. CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 assigns special importance to human remains and specifies procedures to be used when Native 1 D U D E K SEPTEMBER 022 5

Local
City of Vista General Plan
The City of Vista General Plan (2030) affords consideration for the preservation of cultural resources. The City's Resource Conservation and Sustainability Element reflects the City's commitment to conserve, preserve, and enhance its valuable resources, and its recognition of the importance of taking an overall sustainable and green approach to decision - making. It also acknowledges the interrelationship of all the other General Plan elements in carrying out the City's goal of promoting sustainability and conserving its resources.' Following are relevant goals and policies of the Cultural, Historical, and Paleontological Element of the City's General Plan (paraphrased):

RCS Goal 11: Continue to preserve and protect places, buildings, and objects that embody the City's social, cultural, commercial, and agricultural history.

RCS Policy 1 1 .1. Continue to utilize historical resources, such as the Rancho Buena Vista Adobe, for school programs, community education, and events; and coordinate programming with other historic sites.

RCS Policy 11.2. Continue to preserve Vista's historic adobes and nationally registered and significant historic buildings, such as the Rancho Guajome Adobe and the Braun House. Consider national and local historic designations for eligible City -owned properties.

RCS Policy 11.3. Support preservation of historical resources, including providing for adaptive reuse and tax incentives where appropriate.

RCS Policy 12.2. In collaboration with NAHC and the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians, adopt procedures for protecting significant archeological features, and apply to projects requiring discretionary City approval.

2 Background Research

2.1 South Coastal Information Center Record Search
Dudek conducted a California Historical Resources Information Systems (CHRIS) records search for the Project site and a 1-mile buffer at the South Coastal Information Center (SCIC) at San Diego State University on August 1, 2022.

The records search results indicate that 53 previous cultural resources studies have been conducted within 1 mile of the Project site. Of the 53 previous studies, two studies intersect the Project site and are listed in Table 1 below.

These studies consist of a historic resource survey and a cultural resources evaluation for a master plan. None of the previous cultural resources studies identified any resources within the Project site. The records search is presented in its entirety in the archaeological report prepared by Dudek in 2022 and titled Negative Cultural Resources Phase I Letter Report for the Vista Melrose Residential Project, City of Vista, California.

2.2 Building Development and Archival Research
Building development and archival research were conducted for the Project site in an effort to establish a thorough and accurate historic context for the significance evaluations, and to confirm the building development history of the Project site and associated parcels.

City of Vista Public Records Access Website
Dudek reached out to City of Vista staff on August 3, 2022. Dudek followed up and spoke with City of Vista staff on August 9, 2022. Staff emailed the Public Records form, which Dudek submitted to the City Clerk on August 9, 2022.

On August 15, 2022, City of Vista City Clerk, Kathy Valdez, sent all available building permits for the Project site. All available building permit records were used in the preparation of the historic context and significance evaluations.

According to the City of Vista City Clerk, Kathy Valdez, no permit records were available for Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive.

San Diego County Website
Dudek reached out to the County of San Diego to obtain digitized building permits on August 3, 2022. Dudek then emailed the County staff on August 5, 2022. Staff indicated that no permits were found for the Project site. Staff advised Dudek to check online Citizen Access Portal. Dudek reviewed the information in the online Citizen Access Portal and no records for the two properties were found.

Dudek obtained San Diego County Assessor for the Project site in August 2022. This assessor data gave information about construction dates and current owners for properties on the Project site.

Vista City Library
Dudek contacted the Vista City Library on August 16, 2022, and on August 17, 2022. Library staff emailed Dudek, instructing Dudek to contact the Vista Historical Society. Staff performed city directory research to identify prior property owners for the two properties on the Project site, but no listings were found.

Historical Newspaper Review
Dudek reviewed historical newspapers from Vista and surrounding cities in an effort to understand the development of the City of Vista and the Project site. These documents were used in the preparation of the historic context and significance evaluations.

Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps
Dudek reviewed historical Sanborn Map Company fire insurance maps covering the City of Vista as part of the archival research on the Project site, but research revealed there was no Sanborn coverage for Project site.

Topographic Maps and Historical Aerial Photographs
Dudek consulted historic topographic maps (earliest available from 1893) and aerial photographs to understand the development of the Project site and surrounding properties. A review of historical topographic maps and aerial photographs was conducted as part of the archival research effort for the following years: T1893, T1987, T1901, T1907, T1911, T1920, T1925, T1931, 1933, 1938, T1939, 1946, T1947, 1947, T1949, 1953 (see Exhibit 1), T1955, T1961, 1963, 1964, T1966, 1967, T1969, T1971, 1978, T1978, 1980 (see Exhibit 1) , 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, T2000, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2009, 2010, T2012, 2012, 2014, T2015, 2016, T2018, and 2018 (NETR 2022; UCSB 2022).

3 Historic Context

3.1 Historical Overview of the City of Vista
The City of Vista was within the lands of Mission San Luis Rey during the Spanish colonial period of the eighteenth and early nineteenth century. Following Mexican independence from Spain in 1821, the area became part of Mexico. Secularization of the missions began in 1833, and the Mission's land holdings were distributed among private citizens. Mission San Luis Rey was divided into six ranchos in the 1830s and 1840s: Santa Margarita, Las Flores, Guajome, Agua Hedionda, Buena Vista, and Monserrate. Rancho Aqua Hedionda, Rancho Buena Vista, and Rancho Guajome became the base of what makes up today's City of Vista. Rancho Guajome, owned by the Cave Couts family, comprised 2,200 acres. It was known for its early irrigation system. Rancho Buena Vista was created in 1845. The Rancho Buena Vista Adobe is now located in a city park at the center of Vista. Rancho Aqua Hedionda consisted of 2,600 acres and is now a county park and museum (City of Vista 2021).

In 1858, John Butterfield established the Butterfield Stage Route alongthe Southern Emigrant Trail, delivering mail from St. Louis to San Francisco (Cato 2000). The Butterfield route also provided an easier mode of transportation for settlers coming into Southern California, particularly the area around Vista (Van Horn 1974). The start of the Civil War shut down the Butterfield Stage Route after a short 3-year stint, as it passed through Confederate states, and settlement in the area slowed. By the 1870s, ranching had become prosperous in the Vista area (Van Horn 1974).

In 1860, Francis Hinton hired Robert "Uncle John" Kelly as part owner and Major Domo of Rancho Aqua Hedionda.

Kelly, originally from the Isle of Man, was a bit of a local legend and a well-known rancher in the southwest. This partnership would lead to Kelly's eventual ownership of the Rancho after Hinton's death in 1870 (Harmon 1961).

Kelly granted a coastal right of way for the San Diego Railway, which allowed for San Diego to be connected to all points north. This land along with the land of John Frazier would soon become popular train stops for fresh water on the routes north (Harmon 1967).

One of Vista's early settlers was John Frazier, who opened Vista's first post office in 1882 and gave the city its name. In 1886, the Vista Land Company acquired land from the ranchos for the planning of the City of Vista. By the early 1900s, the center of Vista was subdivided. The Vista Inn and a Santa Fe Railroad train depot, connecting Oceanside to Escondido, were constructed. However, the scarcity of water hindered the growth of Vista in the early 1910s, with a slow increase in population consisting of 1,000. To remedy water concerns, the Vista Irrigation District was formed in 1923, and an aqueduct was built from Lake Henshaw Reservoir. By 1926, Vista had established its own water supply. The town also had a newspaper, the Vista Press. By 1928, the First National Bank was built (City of Vista 2011, 2021; Vista Historical Society and Museum 2022).

Residences emerged in the 1920s and 1930s. The population of Vista in the 1930s increased to 10,000. Further agricultural development took place after the construction of an aqueduct increased irrigation and facilitated the growth of crops such as tomatoes, citrus fruit, and avocados. By 1948, Vista was known as the "Avocado Capitol of the World" (City of Vista 2021). That same year, the Avo Theatre opened downtown. After World War II, the population continued to swell. To meet the needs of the growing population, agricultural land was converted into residential areas in the 1950s and 1960s. During that time, the downtown area declined with the introduction of strip malls away from the city center (City of Vista 2011, 2021; Vista Historical Society and Museum 2022).

D U D E K 2022 115
SEPTEMBER 2022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT In 1963, Vista became incorporated as a city with a population of 19,000 (Vista Press 1963). By the early 2000s, redevelopment of the downtown area, known as Vista Village, took place and spurred attraction to Vista's downtown. The population of Vista has grown to over 95,000 today (Vista Historical Society and Museum 2022).

3.2 History of the Project Site
The first available topographic map for the area dates to 1893. At the time, Project site and the surrounding land was undeveloped. To the direct east of the Project site were the Southern California Railroad tracks. By 1901, the railroad was renamed Southern California Railroad, Escondido Railroad, with the surrounding area undergoing no noticeable changes. The first available aerial photograph dates from 1933. The Project site remained undeveloped. Surrounding the Project site were small homesteads and agricultural land. The adjacent railroad tracks were renamed again in the 1949 topographic map from the Southern California Railroad, Escondido Railroad, to the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe (ATSF) Railway. From the 1933 aerial to the 1947 aerial, the Project site and surrounding land remained relatively unchanged (NETR 2022; UCSB 2022).

By 1953, there was an increase in residential development in and around the Project site. The single-family residence on Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive, was constructed by this time as a square in plan, side gabled roof building.

A long driveway connected Melrose Drive to Property 2. Development on and around the Project site continued to increase through the 1960s. By 1964, Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive was constructed as an L-shape in plan, religious building with a cross gable roof. The southern portion of the building had a steeply pitched roof. Property 1 was accessed by both Melrose Drive from the west and Matagual Drive from the north and was surrounded by an unpaved parking lot. By 1964, a square garage was constructed adjacent to the southern elevation of the residential building on Property 2 (NETR 2022; UCSB 2022).

By the 1960s, the surrounding agricultural land was generally replaced with single-family residential development.

A sign for the First Church of Religious Science was installed at Property 1 in 1970. By 1978, the large-scale North County Regional Center complex was constructed directly northwest of the Project site, replacing agricultural land.

By 1980, an addition was constructed along the primary (west) elevation of Property 1 and the surrounding parking was paved.

Residential development continued to increase east of the Project site in the late 1980s. By 1989, most of the remaining surrounding agricultural land was developed. A large-scale apartment complex was constructed west of the Project site. A non -illuminated sign was installed on Property 1 in 2003. By 2009, the open land to the Project site's west, south, and north had been developed with commercial properties. In the early 2010s, the ATSF Railway tracks became the Sprinter light rail tracks. (NETR 2022; UCSB 2022).

Q,T I
L / G 4
After World War II, the population of San Diego boomed as did the construction of new churches. The number of churches in Vista grew with its population. In the late 1950s, three new churches in Vista were planned or in the planning stages, including the Church of Religious Science (Property 1), the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter -Day Saints on Foothill Boulevard, and the Unity Truth Church to be located at 352 West Lando de Loma (BT 1959).

In March 1958, plans for a new church building on Melrose Drive in Vista were announced by Rev. Dr. J. Paul Featherstone, pastor of the Vista -Oceanside Church of Religious Science. Prior to the construction of the Vista church, the congregation held its meetings at the Chapel of the Pines in Oceanside. Rev. Dr. Featherstone stated that plans for the building included two units, one that would seat 600 people and the other that would seat 200 people. The Vista building was the first Church of Religious Science edifice in North County San Diego. Their doctrine emphasized the power of the mind for healing and fulfillment of life and was based on the teachings of Ernest Holmes, who founded the Institute of Religious Science and Philosophy in Los Angeles in 1927 (CFSL 2022).

Vista contractor J. Edward Esmay was employed to draw up plans for the church to be located at Property 1, 560 South Melrose Dive (SDU 1958a). Archival research revealed little information on Esmay's career other than his 1970 design for a residence located at 520 Pointing Rock Drive, Borrego Springs. In May 1958, Rev.

Dr. Featherstone announced that Vista contractors Betraun & Betraun (also known as A.E. Betraun & Sons Construction Company) were awarded a $33,000 contract to construct the new Church of Religious Science in Vista. The company constructed many community buildings in Vista, including the former Vista Irrigation District D U D E K 2022 117
SEPTEMBER 2022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT headquarters located at 202 West Connecticut Avenue (Vista Historical Society and Museum 2018). The smaller unit was constructed first and used as a training area upon the completion of the larger unit, an A -frame chapel.

Included in the building plans were a chapel, study library, restrooms, and a fully equipped kitchen (SDU 1958b).

The new Church of Religious Science was completed in August 1958 with its first sermon held in early September.

The building cost $40,000 to complete, $7,000 more than its original contract and included seating accommodations for 300 rather than the anticipated 200. The building was planned to be the first of three main buildings erected on the site but appears to be the only building ever constructed (SDU 1958c). Dr. Ernest Holmes, dean and founder of the Church of Religious Science and president of the Institute of Religious Science at Los Angeles spoke at the Vista church's dedication. Rev. Dr. Featherstone also spoke during the dedication ceremony and observed "Friendship Day" during the service (SDU 1958d). Rev. Dr. Featherstone's son, John Featherstone, led the church's youth group, which was organized by the church in connection with the National Organization of Youth in Truth, based out of Los Angeles (SDU 1958e). In 1959, the Church's Board of Trustees officially changed its name from the Oceanside -Vista Church of Religious Studies to the First Church of Religious Studies, Vista due to the church serving not only Oceanside and Vista but multiple other North County San Diego cities (TA 1959).

Throughout the 1960s into the 2000s, the church hosted workshops, youth activities, sermons, support groups, and meditations. In 1961, the Church of Religious Science faith group opened an additional church in Chula Vista located at 277 Church Street. In 1976, the First Church of Religious Science, Vista had a 700-square foot -addition made to its primary (west) elevation, which was used as a foyer and administration offices. The addition obstructed the view of the church's A -frame chapel (City of Vista). The building continued to be used by the Church of Religious Science into the 2000s. By 2009, the building became the Center for Spiritual Discovery, a faith group that held services daily and housed a bookstore. By 2015, the property had become the Thriving Life Church, a non-denominal church, which it remained into 2022.

Property 2: 622 South Melrose Drive
In 1949, the single-family residence at Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive was constructed (San Diego County Assessor). The residence appears in the 1953 aerial image with a square plan and side gabled roof. Historic newspaper research yielded no information about the original owner of the property and it is not known if the property was originally constructed as part of agricultural development. In 1964, a garage was constructed on the southern end of the property (NETR 2022). At this time, surrounding agricultural land was developed for residences.

Barbara Jean Richtelman resided at Property 2 in 1965. Historic research yielded limited information about Ms. Richtelman. Historic aerial images show that there have been no noticeable changes to the property since the 1980s. By 1999, the property had become a rental property. The building continues to function as a residence under ownership of Suppa Family Trust. No information was found about Suppa Family Trust as it relates to the property (TA 1965; NCT 1999; NETR 2022; UCSB 2022).

3.3 Present Architectural Styles and Property Types
Mid -Century Modern, A -Frame Subtype (1945-1965)
The Mid -Century Modern style evolved from the pre- World War II International Style. The roots of the style can be traced to early Modernists like Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler, whose work in the Southern California in the 1920s and 1930s inspired "second generation" postwar Modern architects like Gregory Ain, Craig Ellwood, Harwell D U D E K 2022 118
SEPTEMBER 2022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT Hamilton Harris, Pierre Koenig, Raphael Soriano, and many more. These postwar architects developed a regional style, fostered in part by Art and Architecture magazine's pivotal Case Study Program (1945-1966). Postwar Modernism was an antidote to what architects saw as the sterility of earlier Modern architecture that was characterized by geometric forms, smooth stucco wall surfaces, and lack of decorative ornament. Mid -Century Modernism adapted these elements to the local climate and topography, which in Southern California meant the use of wood post -and -beam construction and the incorporation of seamless indoor and outdoor spaces. The style also experimented more with shape, color, and materials. Mid -Century Modernism is often characterized by a clear expression of structure and materials, large expanses of glass, and open interior plans.

In manytypes of properties, the Mid -Century Modern style fit the postwar need for efficiently built, moderately priced construction. Thus, the style became particularly attractive because its non -ornamental appearance and use of standardized, prefabricated materials was inexpensive to reproduce and permitted quick and economical construction for the multitude of buildings demanded after World War II. The cost-effective nature of the style and the ability to mass-produce Mid -Century Modern building materials like concrete, wood, steel, and glass made itthe perfect style for growing cities like San Diego. As a result, it became the predominant architectural style in the postwar years. The Mid -Century Modern movement in San Diego as in other cities in the United States, was characterized by simplistic and clear uses of materials and structural components, open interior planning, and large expanses of glass. (SFPD 2010; City of San Diego 2007).

Property 1 is an example of a sub -type of Mid -Century Modern style known as the A -frame. A -frame buildings are defined by their steeply -pitched triangular roof forms that extend partway or entirely to the ground and also serve as exterior walls. The term "A -frame" describes both a method of construction and an architectural style that is associated with the postwar Modern movement. A -frame buildings are a clear expression of Modernism and its prevailing emphasis on producing buildings that were rational, efficient, and stripped of stylistic excess. They are typically expressed in the context of residential architecture, but because the characteristically expressive, jutting roofline of the A -frame draws the eye A -frame buildings lent themselves well to businesses that aspired to draw the attention of passing motorists. (Rand) 2004, pp. 11-15; ARG et. al. 2021. pp. 167-176).

Elements of the A -frame idiom were sometimes incorporated into the design of postwar churches. A number of theories have been posited as to why the A -frame and its emphatic roof peak resonated so strongly with churches and churchgoers at this time, some of which are symbolic and others that are more pragmatic. To some, the A -frame's triangular form stood as "a three-dimensional representation of the Holy Trinity." Others interpreted the A -frame as a modern-day take on the Gothic cathedral, boiled down to its essential characteristics of bold, vertical volumes. On a more practical level, churches needed new, larger buildings to house more congregants, and the A -frame offered a way for these churches to create dramatic, expressive spaces with limited resources. Bythe 1960s it was common for churches to utilize the A -frame to create soaring sanctuary spaces. Due to the somewhat difficult nature of demising interior spaces within the triangle, other functions such as parish halls, kitchens, and offices tended to be located in a wing projecting from the A -frame. Often, these churches and ecclesiastical buildings included other expressionistic characteristics that are more closely associated with the Mid -Century Modern style, though they clearly exhibited elements of the A -frame. (Rand) 2004, pp. 137-138; ARG et. al. 2021. P. 173).

Characteristics of the A -Frame subtype of Mid -Century Modern style include the following:
■ One story in height
■ Triangular shape
■ Strong right angles and simple cubic forms
D U D E K 2022 119
SEPTEMBER 022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT ■ Steeply sloping roof that extends all or partway to the ground on two sides ■ Deep-set eaves
■ Stucco, wood (often vertical), or corrugated siding
■ Few vertical wall surfaces
■ Large windows or groups of windows on front or rear faqades Property Type: Mid -Century Religious Buildings in San Diego The design of churches during the 1950s in San Diego was becoming more modern. Church architects and builders began incorporating modern methods of construction and materials. Materials such as laminated wood arches and trusses, reinforced concrete, steel, and glass led to new possibilities in shape and form. Additionally, combining modern building materials such as glass and stone veneer allowed for the simple, rectangular gathering space of most religious buildings to look contemporary in design. Despite the use of modern materials, churches were still identifiable as religious buildings through the use of recognizable symbols and forms, such as the cross, steeples, stained glass, and, on the interior, seating arranged in wood pews. Noted examples of this period of modernization in religious building design in San Diego included Saint Sophia Catholic Church in Spring Valley (1958), La Jolla First Baptist Church (now La Jolla Christian Fellowship) (c. 1955), East San Diego Presbyterian Church (1958), and Lemon Grove Methodist Church (1955) (Smith 1958).

By the mid-1960s, church architecture was undergoing a "Modern Renaissance" with new designs being bold, dramatic, different, and varied. After a decade of slow progress, churches embraced Modern design, becoming round, hexagonal, and freeform with abstract expressions of traditional symbolism. Angular shapes became more common with sweeping rooflines either upward or inward like a shell. These new concepts were accepted by many faiths including Catholics, Episcopalians, Lutherans, Presbyterians, Methodists, Religious Science, and Baptists who looked to break from old traditional architectural styles. Architecture became a way for congregations to express their theology in modern forms, new materials, new lighting effects, and new acoustical treatments. The First Church of Religious Science in Vista followed this trend with its Mid -Century Modern design featuring angular roof forms. Churches in San Diego that fully embraced the use of Modern styles for religious architecture included First Lutheran Church of Vista (c. 1966), St. Rose of Lima Church in Chula Vista (1966), First Congregational Church of Lemon Grove (now Shiloh Baptist Church) (1963), St. Paul's Methodist Church in Coronado (1963), and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter -Day Saints in University City (1966) (Smith 1966; SDU 1968).

Ranch Style (1935-1975)
Ranch -style houses in California reflect a national trend of fascination with the "Old West" and were a building style of choice for tract housing. Ranch homes were originally developed in the western and southwestern United States, but quickly gained national popularity through the dissemination of do-it-yourself manuals and plans in national magazines such as Sunset, Better Homes And Gardens, and House Beautiful. Later, Ranch houses were popular as a custom-built type of housing, which was especially popular in the later 1940s and 1950s. During the 1940s, the style was one of the few built under Federal Housing Administration financing guidelines. Ranch houses built in the 1940s were smaller in size than later versions after builders lobbied for higher loan limits and Federal Housing Administration guidelines were revised in the 1950s. In San Diego and the surrounding cities such as Vista, examples of the style were abundant as it became the most prevalent type of post -World War II suburban tract -style housing (McAlester 2013; City of San Diego 2007).

D U D E K 2022 120
SEPTEMBER 022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT Ranch style houses are usually a one-story, single-family residence. Houses designed in this architectural style include several identifying characteristics such as rambling, elongated plans; a horizontal emphasis; general asymmetry; free -flowing interior spaces; and a designed connection to the outdoors. Features such as low-pitched roofs with wide eaves, a combination of cladding materials including board -and -batten siding, brick and stone chimneys, and large picture windows were commonly applied and evoked an aesthetic that was reminiscent of these past architectural traditions. Decorative features such as wood shutters and dovecotes were often added to enhance the rusticated appearance of Ranch houses (Grimes and Chiang 2009; Horak et.al. 2015).

Character -defining features include:
■ Rambling, elongated plans with a horizontal emphasis
■ One to two stories in height
■ Low-pitched gabled or hipped roofs with overhanging, open eaves ■ General asymmetry
■ Free -flowing interior spaces
■ Designed connection to the outdoors
■ Cladding featuring stucco, board and batten, shingles, clapboard, or a combination of materials ■ Brick or stone chimneys details
■ Attached garages often linked to residence by breezeways ■ Stone, brick, board and batten, clapboard, or horizontal wood siding used for accent on walls, secondary cladding types, and planters
■ Functional and non-functional shutters details as trim around windows ■ Fenestration may include a picture window

4 Field Survey

4.1 Methods
An intensive -level survey and archival research were conducted to identify any potential built environment historical resources on the Project site. The survey was conducted on August 4, 2022, by Dudek architectural historian Nicole Frank, MSHP. The survey involved walking all portions of the Project site and documenting the Project site with detailed notes and photographs. Two buildings were surveyed on the Project site including one church building, (Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive), and one single-family residence (Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive).

Dudek documented the buildings' elevations, character -defining features, spatial relationships, and setting, and noted any observed alterations.

4.2 Results
The Project site contains two buildings on two properties over 45 years old that were identified as requiring recordation and evaluation for historical significance. The Project site was evaluated as two properties, Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive (APN 166-280-60-00) and Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive (APN 166-280-18-00). Two total buildings over 45 years of age are located on the Project site (one church and one single-family residence) and were evaluated for historical and architectural significance as two separate properties due to their separate development histories.

The two properties within the Project site are described and evaluated for historical and architectural significance in Section 5, Significance Evaluations. A State of California Department of Parks and Recreation Series 523 (DPR) form for the two properties within the Project site are in Appendix B. Department of Parks and Recreation Form Set.

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT The primary (west) elevation features a combination of cladding including concrete masonry units on the first mass, vertical wood -board siding on the second mass, painted rusticated concrete masonry units on the third mass, and smooth stucco on the fourth mass. A painted wood -lattice screen obscures the fenestration on the first mass, and a glass and metal frame double -door with a multi -light transom window sits between the first and second masses.

The second mass features a group of wood sash fixed -light and jalousie windows and grouped double -hung windows. The main entrance is a wood multi -panel double -door with stained glass panels is hidden from view on the third mass. Fenestration on the third mass includes a small window obscured by metal security bars on the southside of the building, and within the gable of the fourth mass is a stucco framed cross shape with stained glass that extends the full height of the mass (Exhibit 2).

The south elevation is comprised of the third and fourth masses featuring a combination of painted rusticated concrete masonry unit siding, smooth stucco siding with three simple buttress supports, and vertical wood -board siding. Fenestration includes a steel sash sliding window with security bars grouped with a steel sash, full -height, three -light, double -hung window with security bars, and a grouping of clerestory stained-glass casement windows.

One multi -paneled door is accessible from the east side of the elevation (Exhibit 3).

The east (rear) elevation includes the fourth, second, and first masses with a combination of smooth stucco siding and vertical wood -board siding (Exhibit 4). A wood -sash, stained glass, fixed port -window is centered under the gable of the fourth mass and a single -panel door on the northmost side. On the second mass, a metal frame screen door, centrally grouped steel sash double -light casement windows, and wood framed glass double -door are obscured by a tall concrete fence encompassing a rear patio space. Additionally, the first mass features a single -panel door with a jalousie window, a double -door flanked by steel sash triple -light double -hung windows and two projecting rectangular masses each containing a single panel door, and another triple -light double -hung window on the northmost side of the elevation (Exhibit 5).

The north elevation consists of the fourth and first masses with a combination of smooth stucco siding and vertical wood board siding (Exhibit 6). The concrete wall obscures the wood framed glass double -door with wood sash side- lights and a single -panel door on the fourth mass. The first mass does not include windows or doors, but instead features a stone fireplace centered on the elevation.

5 Significance Evaluation
For a property to be listed in or determined eligible for listing in the NRHP, it must be demonstrated to possess integrity and to meet at least one of four criteria. The CRHR was designed to reflect the same criteria and integrity as those identified for the NRHP. Therefore, the NRHP and CRHR significance evaluations are presented together.

5.1 Property 1: 560 South Melrose Drive

5.1.1 National Register of Historic Places/California Register of Historical Resources Statement of Significance
In consideration of Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive's history and requisite integrity, Dudek finds the property not eligible for designation in the NRHP or CRHR based on the following significance evaluation and in consideration of national and state eligibility criteria:

Criterion A/1: That are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history.

Property 1 is an altered religious building, initially constructed as the First Church of Religious Science in 1958.

Archival research did not find any associations between the property and events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of history. For a religious property to meet Criteria Consideration A and have historic significance under Criterion A/1, it must represent important historic or cultural forces. The property does not appear important to the Church of Religious Science's history within the United States and in California. Their beliefs included the power of the mind for healing and fulfillment of life based off Ernest Holmes's teachings from the Institute of Religious Science and Philosophy in Los Angeles, an organization founded in 1927. The First Church of Religious Science in Vista was completed in August 1958, 31 years after the founding of the Institute of Religious Science and Philosophy. The Church of Religious Science continued to expand throughout Southern California following the construction of Property 1, including the construction of an additional church in Chula Vista, located at 277 Church Street in 1961. There is no indication that the establishment of the First Church of Religious Science in Vista is an important location to religious history or represents an important historic or cultural force associated with the religious group that built the church.

There is no indication that the establishment of the First Church of Religious Science in Vista played an important role in the development of the community of Vista, which began its development in the early 1900s and expanded in 1923 after the formation of the Vista Irrigation District. The Church's establishment did not represent an important event in history, rather it followed a pattern of development that continued through the 1960s in Vista.

Archival research failed to reveal that the establishment of the First Church of Religious Science in Vista contributed to the popularity of Vista as a City, rather its establishment came about as a result of residential expansion. The construction of institutions such as churches, schools, and community centers are typical in the early establishment of a community. Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive merely followed the trend of Vista's development as a residential community in North County San Diego. Research found no association with more specific events or patterns of development that have historical significance at the local, state, or national level. For these reasons, the Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive does not appear eligible under NRHP Criterion A or CRHR Criterion 1.

D U D E K 2022 133
SEPTEMBER 022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT Criterion B/2: That are associated with the lives of persons significant in our past.

To be found eligible under Criterion B/2, the property has to be directly tied to an important person and the place where that individual conducted or produced the work for which he or she is known. Archival research failed to indicate any such direct association between individuals that are known to be historic figures at the national, state, or local level and Property 1. Property 1 was developed in 1958 as the First Church of Religious Science, Vista.

Plans for the new church building in Vista were announced by Rev. Dr. J. Paul Featherstone, pastor of the Vista - Oceanside Church of Religious Science. Rev. Dr. Featherstone spoke during the dedication ceremony of the church and continued to lead the First Church of Religious Science with the church hosting workshops, youth activities, sermons, support groups, and meditations. Despite Dr. J. Paul Featherstone being a productive member of Vista's community, there is no indication that his activities were important on the national, state, or local level. Archival research failed to reveal that Rev. Dr. J. Paul Featherstone gained importance within his profession as a pastor. A property is not eligible if its only justification for significance is that it was owned or used by a person who is a member of an identifiable profession, class, or social or ethnic group. Therefore, Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive does not appear eligible under NRHP Criterion B or CRHR Criterion 2.

Criterion C/3: That embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction.

A religious property may have historic significance for architectural or artistic values that the property represents.

Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive, which was developed in 1958 as the First Church of Religious Science, Vista does not embody distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or represent the work of a master, and it does not possess high artistic values.

The First Church of Religious Science, Vista was designed by Vista contractor J. Edward Esmay and built by Vista contractors Betraun & Betraun (also known as A.E. Betraun & Sons Construction Company). Archival research revealed little information on Esmay's career other than his 1970 design for a residence located at 520 Pointing Rock Drive, Borrego Springs. Betraun & Betraun constructed many community buildings in Vista, including the former Vista Irrigation District headquarters located at 202 West Connecticut Avenue. There is no indication that Esmay and Betraun & Betraun are considered masters within their fields. Rather, they were local contractors and builders who did not create distinctive or innovative designs for buildings.

The church displays several character -defining features reflecting the A -frame subtype of the Mid -Century Modern style including: One story in height; triangular shape; strong right angles and simple cubic forms; steeply sloping roof that extends all or partway to the ground on two sides; stucco siding; large windows or groups of windows on front or rear fapades. The design on a major thoroughfare attracts attention to its form. However, alterations have detracted from the Mid -Century Modern style, notably from the A -frame shape, including the 1976 addition to the building's primary (west) elevation. This addition obstructed the view of the church's A -frame chapel, a key element of its style. Additionally, comparing the First Church of Religious Science, Vista to other notable examples of churches from the same time period, including Saint Sophia Catholic Church in Spring Valley (1958), La Jolla First Baptist Church (now La Jolla Christian Fellowship) (c. 1955), East San Diego Presbyterian Church (1958), and Lemon Grove Methodist Church (1955), Property 1 does not embody distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction within the context of 1950s and 1960s churches in Vista and San Diego County. The First Church of Religious Science, Vista merely reflected the simple ideas of the Mid -Century Modern architectural style D U D E K 2022 134
SEPTEMBER 022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT rather than fully embracing the modern forms and new materials as seen in the more fully expressed Mid -Century Modern designs of churches in the geographic area.

As such, Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive, lacks sufficient distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction; does not representthe work of a master; does not possess high artistic values; and does not appear to be a potential contributor to a historic district. Therefore, Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive, does not appear eligible under NRHP Criterion C or CRHR Criterion 3
Criterion D/4: That have yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history.

Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive is not significant under Criterion D of the NRHP or Criterion 4 of the CRHR as a source, or likely source, of important historical information nor does it appear likely to yield important information about historic construction methods, materials or technologies.

5.1.2 City of Vista Register of Designated Historic Resources Statement of Significance
Dudek finds Property 1, 550 South Melrose Drive not eligible for designation in the City of Vista Register of Designated Historic Resources Inventory based on the following significance evaluation and in consideration of local eligibility criteria:

City of Vista Criterion 1: Its association with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history or the cultural heritage of California of the United States
As discussed in NRHP/CRHR Criteria A/1, archival research failed to indicate that the establishment of First Church of Religious Science in Vista located on Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local history. There is no indication that the establishment of the First Church of Religious Science in Vista served as the focus of the community, which began its development in the early 1900s and expanded in 1923 after the formation of the Vista Irrigation District. The Church's establishment did not represent an important event in history, rather it followed a pattern of development that continued through the 1960s in Vista. Therefore, it is recommended not eligible for listing in the City of Vista under this criterion.

City of Vista Criterion 2: Its association with the lives of persons important to local California or national history As discussed in NRHP/CRHR Criteria 13/2, Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive was developed in 1958 by Rev.

Dr. J. Paul Featherstone, pastor of the Vista -Oceanside Church of Religious Science. Archival research failed to reveal that Rev. Dr. J. Paul Featherstone gained importance within his profession as a pastor. Despite Dr. J. Paul Featherstone being a productive member of Vista's community there is no indication that his activities were important on the national, state, or local level. Therefore, it is recommended not eligible for listing in the City of Vista under this criterion.

City of Vista Criterion 3: Its embodiment of the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region or method of construction; its representation of the work of a master; or its signification of high artistic values
D U D E K 2022 135
SEPTEMBER 022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT As discussed in NRHP/CRHR Criteria C/3, Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive was constructed in 1958 as the First Church of Religious Science, Vista and does not embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or represent the work of a master, and it does not possess high artistic values. There is no indication thatthe church's designer, J. Edward Esmay, and builder, Betraun & Betraun, are recognized as masters within their fields.

Therefore, it is recommended not eligible for listing in the City of Vista under this criterion.

City of Vista Criterion 4: Its potential to yield information important to the prehistory or history of the local area, California or the nation.

As discussed in NRHP/CRHR Criteria D/4, Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive has not yielded, nor is it likely to yield, information of scientific value. Therefore, it is recommended not eligible for listing in the City of Vista under this criterion.

5.1.3 Integrity Discussion
Integrity Discussion
To be eligible for listing in the NRHP, properties must retain their physical integrity from the period in which they gained significance. In the case of architecturally significant properties, the period of significance is normally the date of construction. For historically significant properties, the length of the historic associations usually measures the period of significance.

Property 1, 560 South Melrose Drive contains one church building that has not been moved or relocated; therefore, the property retains integrity of location. Due to an addition made to the building's primary (west) elevation, Property 1 has diminished integrity of materials, workmanship, and design. With the construction of the North County Regional Center complex directly northwest of the property, large-scale residential development to the west, commercial and religious development to the north, west, and south, the surrounding neighborhood has changed so integrity of setting is diminished. The property retains integrity of feeling as a religious property constructed in the late 1950s. Finally, Property 1 does not have any historical associations with people or events and therefore it does not have integrity of association. In summary, Property 1 retains integrity of location and feeling but has diminished setting, design, materials, and workmanship due to alterations and changes to the surrounding area. It lacks integrity of association as it has no historical or architectural significance.

5.2 Property 2: 622 South Melrose Drive

5.2.1 National Register of Historic Places/California Register of Historical Resources Statement of Significance
Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive does not meet any of the criteria for listing in the NRHP or CRHR, either individually or as part of an existing historic district, as demonstrated below.

Criterion A/1: That are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history.

Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive includes one residence built in 1949. Archival research did not find any associations between the property and events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of history. The property was completed in 1949, during a postwar population boom that affected not only Vista but much of greater Southern California. Despite the property reflecting the trend of Vista's residential growth during the late 1940s, there is no indication that the construction of this specific residence marked a pivotal point in the history of the neighborhood or city. It was neither the first nor the last of its type and was merely following a continuous pattern of residential development that continued through the postwar period. Property 2 is not known to be directly associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the history of Vista, therefore, it does not appear eligible under NRHP Criterion A or CRHR Criterion 1.

Criterion B/2: That are associated with the lives of persons significant in our past.

To be found eligible under Criterion B/2 the property has to be directly tied to an important person and the place where that individual conducted or produced the work for which he or she is known. Archival research failed to indicate any such direct association between individuals that are known to be historic figures at the national, state, or local level and Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive. The property was constructed as a residence. The original owner is unknown. Historic newspaper research revealed Barbara Richtelman associated with the residence in 1965. However, research did not uncover any information about Richtelman. Richtelman does not appear to be a person significant in our past. Due to a lack of identified significant associations with important individuals, the Property 2 does not appear eligible under NRHP Criterion B or CRHR Criterion 2.

Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive minimally reflects the Ranch style of architecture. The property has few character -defining architectural features of Ranch style architecture. It possesses the style's characteristic asymmetry, one story height, and an elongated plan, but is an unremarkable example of the type. More distinguished forms of Ranch style residences can be found throughout San Diego County. A number of alterations have taken place including an addition of a garage, garage door replacement, reroofing, window replacement, and an addition of a chicken coop. No building permits were found for the property. Research yielded no information about the architect and the property is likely not the work of a master. As such, the property lacks sufficient distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction; does not represent the work of a master; D U D E K 2022 137
SEPTEMBER 022

VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT / HISTORICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT does not possess high artistic values; and does not appear to be a potential contributor to a historic district.

Therefore, Property 2 does not appear eligible under NRHP Criterion C or CRHR Criterion 3.

Criterion D/4: That have yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history.

Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive is not significant under Criterion D of the NRHP or Criterion 4 of the CRHR as a source, or likely source, of important historical information nor does it appear likely to yield important information about historic construction methods, materials or technologies.

5.2.2 City of Vista Register of Designated Historic Resources Statement of Significance
Dudek finds Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive not eligible for designation in the City of Vista Register of Designated Historic Resources Inventory based on the following significance evaluation and in consideration of local eligibility criteria:

As discussed in NRHP/CRHR Criteria A/1, extensive research indicates there is no association between Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive and events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history or the cultural heritage of California of the United States. Therefore, it is recommended not eligible for listing in the City of Vista under this criterion.

City of Vista Criterion 2: Its association with the lives of persons important to local California or national history.

As discussed in NRHP/CRHR Criteria B/2, extensive archival research also indicates that Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive is not identified with persons or events significant in local, state, or national history. Therefore, it is recommended not eligible for listing in the City of Vista under this criterion.

As discussed in NRHP/CRHR Criteria C/3, the Ranch style residence is a modest example of its type with few noteworthy architectural features. Ranch style buildings such as this are ubiquitous throughout Southern California.

It is unknown who designed Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive, and no building permits were found. The building lacks sufficient distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction; do not represent the work of a master; and do not possess high artistic values. Therefore, it is recommended not eligible for listing in the City of Vista under this criterion.

City of Vista Criterion 4: Its potential to yield information important to the prehistory or history of the local area, California or the nation.

In the case of architecturally significant properties, the period of significance is normally the date of construction. For historically significant properties, the length of the historic associations usually measures the period of significance. The property has neither historical nor architectural significance.

Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive contains one residence that has not been moved or relocated; therefore, the property retains integrity of location. Due to various alterations to the residence including window replacement, addition of a garage, addition of a chicken coop, reroofing, and garage door replacement, Property 2 has diminished integrity of materials, workmanship, and design. With the construction of the North County Regional Center complex directly northwest of the property, large-scale residential development to the west, commercial and religious development to the north, west, and south, the surrounding neighborhood has changed so integrity of setting is diminished. The property retains integrity of feeling as a single-family residence. Finally, Property 2 does not have any historical associations with people or events and therefore it does not have integrity of association.

In summary, Property 2, 622 South Melrose Drive retains integrity of location and feeling but has diminished setting, design, materials, and workmanship due to alterations. It lacks integrity of association as it has no historical or architectural significance.

Subject: Cultural Resources Inventory Report for the Vista Melrose Residential Project, City of Vista, California
Dear Mr. Little:
14613
This letter documents the negative cultural resources inventory conducted by Dudek for the Vista Melrose Residential Project (Project), located in the City of Vista, California (Figure 1). The Project would consist of the construction of a 34-single family residential development, a private road, dog park, a tot lot, and a rock garden. The Project is located at 560 S. Melrose Drive and 622 S. Melrose Drive in the City of Vista. The City of Vista (City) is the lead agency responsible for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). In accordance with CEQA, Dudek performed a cultural resources inventory for the entire Project area.

The Project area consists of approximately 5.28 acres encompassing Assessor Parcel Numbers (APII 166-280- 60-00, 166-280-61-00, and 166-280-18-00) (Figure 2).

Dudek conducted a records search for the proposed Project including a surrounding one -mile buffer at the South Coastal Information Center (SCIC). The records search did not identify any cultural resources within the Project area; however, 29 cultural resources were identified within the one -mile radius. A Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) Sacred Lands File (SLF) search was requested, and results were positive.

The SCIC records search and the pedestrian survey did not identify cultural resources within the Project area, however, there are two historic -age structures located within the Project area. The structures are considered built environment resources and are addressed in a separate Built Environment Report (Frank and Greeley 2022). Due to the presence of historic -age structures in the Project area, and because alluvial soils, which has potential to contain subsurface cultural materials, are present throughout the Project area, there is moderate potential for subsurface resources and cultural resources monitoring is recommended. The City of Vista, in consultation with concerned Traditionally and Culturally Affiliated Native American representatives, has determined that cultural resources monitoring with a Qualified Archaeologist and a traditionally and culturally affiliated (TCA) Native American Monitor associated with a TCA tribe is required full-time during, but not limited to, any clearing or grubbing of vegetation, tree removal, demolition and/or removal of remnant foundations, pavements, abandonment and/or installation of infrastructure; grading or any other ground disturbing or altering activities, including the placement of any imported fill materials (note: all fill materials shall be absent of any and all cultural resources); and any related road improvements, including, but not limited to, the installation of infrastructure, realignments, and/or expansions to parking lots.

1 Project Description and Location
The proposed Vista Melrose Residential Project (Project) consists of a residential development within the City of Vista (City) at 560 S. Melrose Drive, 622 S. Melrose Drive and APN#166-280-61-00. The approximately 5.55-acre site includes Assessor's Parcel Numbers [APNs] 166-280-60-00, 166-280-61-00, and 166-280-18-00. The properties at 560 S. Melrose Drive and APN 166-280-61-00 are both currently zoned 0-P (Office Professional) and a corresponding General Plan designation of Commercial Office (CO). The property at 622 S. Melrose Drive is currently zoned R-1 (Residential) and has a corresponding General Plan designation of Medium Low Density Residential (MILD). The applicant, TTLC Vista Melrose, LLC, proposes to rezone all three properties to R-1-13 (Residential) with a corresponding General Plan change to Medium Density Residential (MD). Furthermore, the applicant proposes a thirty-seven (37) lot Tentative Subdivision Map to redevelop the site to include thirty-four (34) single-family residences, which would result in a proposed density of 6.1 dwelling units per acre, a private street, private park with a tot lot and a dog park. The project will utilize the City of Vista Small Lot Subdivision standards per Vista Development Code Section 18.33 to achieve their project design. The proposed project would also include landscaping and offsite street and utility improvements.

The Project area is bound by Matagual Drive to the north, Las Palmas Drive to the south, and S. Melrose Drive to the west. Buena Vista Creek is located approximately 0.4 miles to the north of the Project area. The Project area falls within Section 25 of Township 11 South, Range 4 West of the San Luis Rey, California 7.5-minute Quadrangle (Figure 1). The Project area consists of approximately 5.28 acres encompassing APNs 166-280-60- 00, 166-280-61-00, and 166-280-18-00) (Figure 2).

The northeastern section of the Project area is vacant, the Thriving Life Church and associated parking lot is located on the western section of the Project area, and a single-family residence is located in the southeastern section of the Project area. Demolition would be required as part of the Project implementation to remove the existing church, parking lot, and residence.

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
■ Associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of California's history and cultural heritage.
■ Associated with the lives of persons important in our past. ■ Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the work of an important creative individual, or possesses high artistic values. ■ Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. (California Public Resources Code section 5024.1(c).) Resources less than 50 years old are not considered for listing in the CRHR, but may be considered if it can be demonstrated that sufficient time has passed to understand the historical importance of the resource (see 14 CCR, section 4852(d)(2)).

The CRHR protects cultural resources by requiring evaluations of the significance of prehistoric and historic resources. The criteria for the CRHR are nearly identical to those for the NRHP, and properties listed or formally designated as eligible for listing on the NRHP are automatically listed on the CRHR, as are the state landmarks and points of interest. The CRHR also includes properties designated under local ordinances or identified through local historical resource surveys. The State Historic Preservation Officer maintains the CRHR.

2.2 Native American Historic Cultural Sites (California Public Resources Code section 5097 et seq.)
State law addresses the disposition of Native American burials in archaeological sites and protects such remains from disturbance, vandalism, or inadvertent destruction; establishes procedures to be implemented if Native American skeletal remains are discovered during construction of a project; and establishes the NRHC to resolve disputes regarding the disposition of such remains. In addition, the Native American Historic Resource Protection Act makes it a misdemeanor punishable by up to 1 year in jail to deface or destroy an Indian historic or cultural site that is listed or may be eligible for listing in the CRHR.

2.3 California Native American Graves Protection and
Repatriation Act
The California Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (California Repatriation Act), enacted in 2001, required all state agencies and museums that receive state funding and that have possession or control over collections of human remains or cultural items, as defined, to complete an inventory and summary of these remains and items on or before January 1, 2003, with certain exceptions. The California Repatriation Act also provides a process for the identification and repatriation of these items to the appropriate tribes.

2.4 California Environmental Quality Act
As described further below, the following CEQA statutes and CEQA Guidelines are of relevance to the analysis of archaeological and historic resources:

1. California Public Resources Code section 21083.2(g): Defines "unique archaeological resource." DUDEK 20 13 3
FEBRUARY 23

TO: MR. LITTLE
SUBJECT: CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY REPORT FOR THE VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT, CITY OF

VISTA, CALIFORNIA

2. California Public Resources Code section 21084.1 and CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(a): Define historical resources. In addition, CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(b) defines the phrase "substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource;" it also defines the circumstances when a project would materially impair the significance of a historical resource.

3. California Public Resources Code section 5097.98 and CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(e): Set forth standards and steps to be employed following the accidental discovery of human remains in any location other than a dedicated ceremony.

4. California Public Resources Code sections 21083.2(b)-(c) and CEQA Guidelines section 15126A Provide information regardingthe mitigation framework for archaeological and historic resources, including options of preservation -in -place mitigation measures; preservation -in -place is the preferred manner of mitigating impacts to significant archaeological sites because it maintains the relationship between artifacts and the archaeological context, and may also help avoid conflict with religious or cultural values of groups associated with the archaeological site(s).

Under CEQA, a project may have a significant effect on the environment if it may cause "a substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource" (California Public Resources Code section 21084.1; CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(b)). If a site is either listed or eligible for listing in the CRHR, or if it is included in a local register of historic resources, or identified as significant in a historical resources survey (meeting the requirements of California Public Resources Code section 5024.1(q)), it is a "historical resource" and is presumed to be historically or culturally significant for purposes of CEQA (California Public Resources Code section 21084.1; CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(a)). The lead agency is not precluded from determining that a resource is a historical resource even if it does not fall within this presumption (California Public Resources Code section 21084.1; CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(a)).

A "substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource" reflecting a significant effect under CEQA means "physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the resource or its immediate surroundings such that the significance of an historical resource would be materially impaired" (CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(b)(1); California Public Resources Code section 5020.1(q)). In turn, the significance of a historical resource is materially impaired when a project:

2. Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics that account for its inclusion in a local register of historical resources pursuant to section 5020.1(k) of the Public Resources Code or its identification in an historical resources survey meeting the requirements of section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code, unless the public agency reviewing the effects of the project establishes by a preponderance of evidence that the resource is not historically or culturally significant; or DUDEK 20 13 4

TO: MR. LITTLE
SUBJECT: CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY REPORT FOR THE VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT, CITY OF

VISTA, CALIFORNIA

3. Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of a historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its eligibility for inclusion in the California Register as determined by a lead agency for purposes of CEQA.

See Section 2.7, below for a discussion of the CEQA guidelines for determining significance and mitigating impacts to unique archaeological resources.

2.5 California Health and Safety Code section 7050.5 and Public Resources Code Section 5097.98
CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 assigns special importance to human remains and specifies procedures to be used when Native American remains are discovered. As described below, these procedures are detailed in California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 and Public Resources Code Section 5097.98.

California law protects Native American burials, skeletal remains, and associated grave goods, regardless of their antiquity, and provides for the sensitive treatment and disposition of those remains. Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 requires that if human remains are discovered in any place other than a dedicated cemetery, no further disturbance or excavation of the site or nearby area reasonably suspected to contain human remains shall occur until the County coroner has examined the remains (California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5[b]). If the coroner determines or has reason to believe the remains are those of a Native American, the coroner must contact the NAHC within 24 hours (California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5[c]). In accordance with California Public Resources Code Section 5097.98(a), the NAHC will notify the Most Likely Descendant (MLD). With the permission of the landowner, the MLD may inspectthe site of discovery. Within 48 hours of being granted access to the site, the MLD may recommend means of treatment or disposition, with appropriate dignity, of the human remains and associated grave goods.

2.6 Assembly Bill 52
California Assembly Bill 52, which took effect July 1, 2015, establishes a consultation process between California Native American Tribes and lead agencies in order to address tribal concerns regarding project impacts and mitigation to "tribal cultural resources" (TCR). Public Resources Code section 21074(a) defines TCRs and states that a project that has the potential to cause a substantial adverse change to a TCR is a project that may have an adverse effect on the environment. A TCR is defined as a site, feature, place, cultural landscape, sacred place, and object with cultural value to a California Native American tribe that is either:

1. listed or eligible for listing in the CRHR or a local register of historical resources, or

2. determined by a lead agency to be a TCR.

2.7 Guidelines for Determining Significance
According to CEQA (§15064.5b), a project with an effect that may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource is a project that may have a significant effect on the environment. CEQA defines a substantial adverse change:

DUDEK 20 13 5
FEBRUARY 23

TO: MR. LITTLE
SUBJECT: CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY REPORT FOR THE VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT, CITY OF

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
Substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource means physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the resource or its immediate surroundings such that the significance of an historical resource would be materially impaired.

The significance of an historical resource is materially impaired when a project:
• Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of an historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its inclusion in, or eligibility for inclusion in, the CRHR; or
• Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics that account for its inclusion in a local register of historical resources pursuant to section 5020.1(k) of the Public Resources Code or its identification in an historical resources survey meeting the requirements of section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code, unless the public agency reviewing the effects of the project establishes by a preponderance of evidence that the resource is not historically or culturally significant; or • Demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of an historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its eligibility for inclusion in the CRHR as determined by a lead agency for purposes of CEQA.

Section 15064.5(c) of CEQA applies to effects on archaeological sites and contains the following additional provisions regarding archaeological sites:
• When a project will impact an archaeological site, a lead agency shall first determine whether the site is an historical resource, as defined in subsection (a).
• If a lead agency determines that the archaeological site is a historical resource, it shall refer to the provisions of Section 21084.1 of the Public Resources Code, and this section, Section 15126.4 of the Guidelines, and the limits contained in Section 21083.2 of the Public Resources Code do not apply. • If an archaeological site does not meet the criteria defined in subsection (a), but does meet the definition of a unique archaeological resource in Section 21083.2 of the Public Resources Code, the site shall be treated in accordance with the provisions of section 21083.2. The time and cost limitations described in Public Resources Code Section 21083.2 (c-f) do not apply to surveys and site evaluation activities intended to determine whether the project location contains unique archaeological resources. • If an archaeological resource is neither a unique archaeological nor a historical resource, the effects of the project on those resources shall not be considered a significant effect on the environment. It shall be sufficient that both the resource and the effect on it are noted in the Initial Study or Environmental Impact Report (EIR), if one is prepared to address impacts on other resources, but they need not be considered further in the CEQA process.

Section 15064.5(d) and (e) contain additional provisions regarding human remains. Regarding Native American human remains, paragraph (d) provides:

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
When an initial study identifies the existence of, or the probable likelihood of, Native American human remains within the project, a lead agency shall work with the appropriate Native Americans as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission as provided in Public Resources Code SS5097.98. The applicant may develop an agreement for treating or disposing of, with appropriate dignity, the human remains and any items associated with Native American burials with the appropriate Native Americans as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission. Action implementing such an agreement is exempt from:

1. The general prohibition on disinterring, disturbing, or removing human remains from any location other than a dedicated cemetery (Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5); and

2. The requirement of CEQA and the Coastal Act.

Under CEQA, an EIR is required to evaluate any impacts on unique archaeological resources (California Public Resources Code section 21083.2.) A "unique archaeological resource" is defined as:
[A]n archaeological artifact, object, or site about which it can be clearly demonstrated that, without merely adding to the current body of knowledge, there is a high probability that it meets any of the following criteria:

1. Contains information needed to answer important scientific research questions and that there is a demonstrable public interest in that information.

2. Has a special and particular quality such as being the oldest of its type or the best available example of its type.

3. Is directly associated with a scientifically recognized important prehistoric or historic event or person. (California Public Resources Code section 21083.2(g)). An impact to a non -unique archaeological resource is not considered a significant environmental impact and such non -unique resources need not be further addressed in the EIR (Public Resources Code section 21083.2(a); CEQA Guidelines section 15064.5(c)(4)).

As stated above, CEQA contains rules for mitigation of "unique archaeological resources." For example, "[i]f it can be demonstrated that a project will cause damage to a unique archaeological resource, the lead agency may require reasonable efforts to be made to permit any or all of these resources to be preserved in place or left in an undisturbed state. Examples of that treatment, in no order of preference, may include, but are not limited to, any of the following:

1. Planning construction to avoid archaeological sites.

2. Deeding archaeological sites into permanent conservation easements.

3. Capping or covering archaeological sites with a layer of soil before building on the sites.

4. Planning parks, greenspace, or other open space to incorporate archaeological sites." (Pub. Resources Code section 21083.2(b)(1)-(4).)

SUBJECT: CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY REPORT FOR THE VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT, CITY OF

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
Public Resources Code section 21083.2(d) states that "[e]xcavation as mitigation shall be restricted to those parts of the unique archaeological resource that would be damaged or destroyed by the project. Excavation as mitigation shall not be required for a unique archaeological resource if the lead agency determines that testing or studies already completed have adequately recovered the scientifically consequential information from and about the resource, if this determination is documented in the environmental impact report." The rules for mitigating impacts to archaeological resources to qualify as "historic resources" are slightly different.

According to CEQA Guidelines section 15126.4(b), "[p]ublic agencies should, whenever feasible, seek to avoid damaging effects on any historic resource of an archaeological nature. The following factors shall be considered and discussed in an EIR for a project involving such an archaeological site:

A. Preservation in place is the preferred manner of mitigating impacts to archaeological sites. Preservation in place maintains the relationship between artifacts and the archaeological context. Preservation may also avoid conflict with religious or cultural values of groups associated with the site.

B. Preservation in place may be accomplished by, but is not limited to, the following:

1. Planning construction to avoid archaeological sites;

2. Incorporation of sites within parks, greenspace, or other open space;

3. Coveringthe archaeological sites with a layer of chemically stable soil before buildingtennis courts, parking lots, or similar facilities on the site[; and]

4. Deeding the site into a permanent conservation easement.

Thus, although section 21083.2 of the Public Resources Code, in addressing "unique archaeological sites," provides for specific mitigation options "in no order of preference," CEQA Guidelines section 15126.4(b), in addressing "historical resources of an archaeological nature," provides that "[p]reservation in place is the preferred manner of mitigating impacts to archaeological sites."
Under CEQA, "[w]hen data recovery through excavation is the only feasible mitigation," the lead agency may cause to be prepared and adopt a "data recovery plan," prior to any excavation being undertaken. The data recovery plan must make "provision for adequately recovering the scientifically consequential information from and about the historic resource." (CEQA Guidelines section 15126.4(b)(3)(C).) The data recovery plan also "must be deposited with the California Historical Resources Regional Information Center." (ibid.) Further, "[i]f an artifact must be removed during project excavation or testing, curation may be an appropriate mitigation." (Ibid.) However, "[d]ata recovery shall not be required for an historical resource if the lead agency determines that testing or studies already completed have adequately recovered the scientifically consequential information from and about the archaeological or historic resource, provided that determination is documented in the EIR and that the studies are deposited with the California Historical Resources Regional Information Center." (CEQA Guidelines section 15126.4(b)(3)(D).)

2.8 Vista General Plan 2030
Chapter 4 Resource Conservation and Sustainability Element of the City's General Plan (adopted in 2012) describes cultural, historical, and paleontological resources regulatory framework, and policies and plans to protect such resources (City of Vista 2012). The planning goals and polices are described below.

The City of Vista RCS Goal 11, in the goals and policy section, consists of three policies to assist in the preservation and protection of the City's social, cultural, commercial, architectural, and agricultural history.

RCS Policy 11.1: Continue to Utilize historical resources, such as the Rancho Buena Vista Adobe, for school programs, community education, and events; and coordinate programming with other historic sites.

RCS Policy 11.2: Continue to preserve Vista's historic adobes and nationally registered and significant historic buildings, such as the Rancho Guajome Adobe and the Braun House. Consider national and local historic designations for eligible City -owned properties.

RCS Policy 11.3: Support preservation of historical resources, including providing for adaptive reuse and tax incentives where appropriate.

The City's goal is to encourage the preservation and protection of these valuable resources through research, inventorying, and education (City of Vista 2012).
3 Methods

3.1 Records Search
Dudek conducted a California Historical Resources Information Systems (CHRIS) records search forthe Project area and a one -mile buffer at the South Coastal Information Center (SCIC) at San Diego State University on August 1, 2022. The records search results indicate that 53 previous cultural resources studies have been conducted within one -mile of the Project area. Of the 53 previous studies, two studies intersect the Project area and are listed in Table 1 below. These studies consist of a historic resource survey and a cultural resources evaluation for a master plan. None of the previous cultural resources studies identified any resources within the Project area. The studies that do not intersect the area are included in Confidential Appendix A.

TO: MR. LITTLE

resources identified in the one -mile buffer, 19 are prehistoric resources and 10 are historic resources. No historic addresses are located within the Project area, however, 12 historic addresses are located within the one -mile search buffer. The results of the records search and all DPR forms are attached as part of Confidential Appendix A.

3.2 Archival Research
In addition to the SCIC records search, Dudek conducted an on-line review of historic aerial photographs of the Project area and general vicinity, to help determine the possible development and land use of the Project area in the past. Historic aerial photographs of the Project area were available for 1938, 1946, 1947, 1953, 1964, 1967, 1978, 1980-1986, 1988-1991, 1993-2000, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2018 (NETR 2022). The historic aerial from 1938 revealed that the Project area was undeveloped and the surrounding areas were utilized for agriculture. In addition, S. Melrose Drive and Matagual Drive were dirt roads. The 1946 aerial reveals a single-family residence located immediately south of current Las Palmas Drive and east of S. Melrose Drive. Additionally, the 1946 aerial shows a dirt road trending north -south from Matagual Drive through the northern portion of the Project area. The 1947 aerial reveals no changes to the Project area. By 1953, the aerials show a single-family residence located on the most northeastern portion of the project site, as well as a few dirt roads trending east -west through the southern portion of the Project Boundary. The 1964, a portion of Las Palmas Drive is built to the south and the Thriving Life Church is constructed at the northwestern portion of the Project boundary with single-family residential properties located to the south and the east of the Project area. The 1967 aerial imagery reveals the Project area to be disturbed with development and ground disturbing activities in the current vacant portion of the Project. By 1978, Las Palmas Drive is fully developed. The 1980 aerial imagery shows the Life Thriving Church parking lot paved with asphalt. From 1980 to 1984 the aerial imagery shows no changes in the Project area. By 1985, the aerial imagery reveals grading disturbances immediately west of the Project area for the current Breeze Hill Park and the park is developed by 1986. The aerial imagery of 1988 to 1990 shows no changes in the Project area. The 1991 aerial imagery shows construction of Breeze Hill Elementary and the school is fully developed by 1993. There are no changes seen in the Project area from 1993 to 1997. The 1998 aerial imagery shows one structure built immediately south of the Life Thriving Church in the Project area. The 1998 to 2018 aerial images reveals no changes in the Project area. A review of the historic aerials revealed that there are at least two historic -age structures within the Project area. The structures are considered built environment resources and are addressed in a separate Built Environment Report (Frank and Greeley 2022).

Historic topographic (topo) maps of the Project area were reviewed (earliest map available is 1893). The topo map from 1949 reveals the development of S. Melrose Drive and Matagual Drive. The 1955 topo map shows a structure built south of the current Las Palmas Drive, located outside the Project area. No changes are seen on the 1961 to 1966 topo maps. The 1969 topo map reveals increasing development throughout the Project area. The topo maps from 1970 to 2018 do not show any changes to the Project area.

3.3 Review of Geomorphological Context
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Services (USDA 2022), three soil types are mapped in the Project area, including Placentia sandy loam, 5 to 9 percent slopes, eroded, located within the northwestern portion of the Project area; Bosanko clay, 15 to 30 percent slopes, located within the southeastern and eastern portions of the Project area; and Bosanko clay, 2 to 15 precent, slopes, located in the southwest portion of the Project area. The Placentia soil series generally occur in settings with alluvial fans, deriving from granite and are typically in elevations of 50 to 2,500 feet. The Bosanko clay with 15 to 30 percent slopes soil series generally occur on hillslopes and hills, derive from acid residuum weathered from igneous rock, and are found in areas with elevations ranging from 120 to 1,080 feet. The Bosanko clay with 9 to 15 percent slopes soil series generally occur on hillslopes and hills, derive from residuum weathered from granite, and are found in areas with elevations ranging D U D E K 20 13 11

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
from 100 to 2,040 feet. Reoccurring alluvial action and flooding serve to support the development and presence of cultural deposits in the area. Since there are alluvial soils present throughout the Project area, there is moderate potential for subsurface cultural resources.

3.4 NAHC and Tribal Correspondence
Dudek requested a Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) search of the Sacred Lands File (SLF) on July 22, 2022, for the Project area. The SLF consists of a database of known Native American resources. These resources may not be included in the SCIC database. The NAHC replied on September 6, 2022 with positive results (Appendix B). The NAHC additionally provided a list of Native American tribes and individuals/organizations with traditional geographic associations that might have knowledge of cultural resources in this area.

Dudek staff called and left messages with the La Jolla Band of Luiseno Indians and the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians on September 9, 2022. Dudek staff called the Pechanga Band of Mission Indians on September 9, 2022 and were provided information about two placenames and four resources within the vicinity of the Project area, and that more information would be provided in a letter. Outreach letters were mailed on September 14, 2022. These letters attempted to solicit additional information relating to Native American resources that may be impacted by the Project. Native American representatives were requested to define a general area where known resources intersect the Project area.

Two letter responses have been received to date. A response was received by the Pechanga Band of Mission Indians on September 9, 2022, stating that a Traditional Cultural Property is located within five miles of the Project area.

Additionally, two Ancestral Placenames are located within a mile of the Project area, and due to the proximity of Buena Vista Creek, two historic -era homesteads, and a large cultural -archaeological site, there is a high possibility of recovering sensitive subsurface resources during ground -disturbing activities for the Project. A response was received from the Rincon Band of Luiseno Indians on October 17, 2022, stating that the Project is located within the Territory of the Luiseno people, and within Rincon Band's specific Area of Historic Interest and recommends the preparation of an archaeological/cultural resources study. These letters have been forwarded to the City and included in the report. Any additional responses received will be forwarded to the City and included in the final draft of this report. The NAHC correspondence is included in Appendix B.

In compliance with Assembly Bill 52, the City, as lead agency, is responsible for conducting government to government consultation with tribal entities.

3.5 Intensive Pedestrian Survey
Dudek archaeologist David Faith conducted an intensive level pedestrian survey of the proposed Project area on August 4, 2022. Saving Sacred Sites Native American monitor Jessica Alexander participated in the pedestrian survey. All survey work was conducted employing standard archaeological procedures and techniques consistent with the Secretary of the Interior Standards. Fifteen -meter interval surveytransects were conducted in a north -south direction for the Project area. Within the transects, the ground surface was examined for prehistoric artifacts (e.g., flaked stone tools, tool-making debris, stone millingtools, ceramics, fire -affected rock), soil discoloration that might indicate the presence of a cultural midden, soil depressions, features indicative of the current or former presence of structures or buildings (e.g., standing exterior walls, post holes, foundations), and historic artifacts (e.g., metal, D U D E K 20 13 12

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
glass, ceramics, building materials). Ground disturbances such as burrows, cut banks, and drainages were also visually inspected for exposed subsurface materials.

The Project area has a slight slope facing west and is bound by S. Melrose Drive to the west and Matagual Drive to the north. Approximately 25% of the Project area is developed with asphalt -concrete pavement and the Thriving Life Church building is located in the southwestern corner of the Project area (Figure 3). The remaining 75% of the Project area is mostly vacant with a private residence located in the southeastern corner of the Project area (Figures 4 and 5). Ground visibility was poor (0-25%) in areas where the ground surface was obscured by vegetation; additionally, bioturbation, off -road vehicle tracks, and light modern debris were observed. Vegetation covered approximately 25% of the Project area and consisted of a peppertree, dove weed, hog weed, mustard, mulefat, dead grass, thistle, and shrubs. Soils in the Project area consisted of loosely compacted, light brown dry silt loam.

Modern debris (e.g., refuse and destroyed recreational vehicle) were strewn throughout the Project area.

No artifacts or features were identified during this survey. Two historic -age structures were identified within the Project area. The built environment resources are addressed in a separate study for the project (Frank and Greeley 2022).
4 Summary and Management Considerations

The City of Vista, in consultation with concerned Traditionally and Culturally Affiliated Native American representatives, has determined that cultural monitoring is required. The following standard mitigation measures would reduce potentially significant impacts to cultural resources and human remains to a less -than -significant level:

CRA Cultural resource mitigation monitoring shall be conducted on the site to provide for the identification, evaluation, treatment, and protection of any cultural resources that are affected by or may be discovered during the construction of the proposed project. The monitoring shall consist of the full-time presence of a Qualified Archaeologist and a traditionally and culturally affiliated (TCA) Native American Monitor associated with a TCA tribe for, but not limited to, any clearing or grubbing of vegetation, tree removal, demolition and/or removal of remnant foundations, pavements, abandonment and/or installation of infrastructure; grading or any other ground disturbing or altering activities, including the placement of any imported fill materials (note: all fill materials shall be absent of any and all cultural resources); and any related road improvements, including, but not limited to, the installation of D U D E K 20 13 13
FEBRUARY 23

TO: MR. LITTLE
SUBJECT: CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY REPORT FOR THE VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT, CITY OF

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
infrastructure, realignments, and/or expansions to parking lots. Other tasks of the monitoring program shall include the following:
• The requirement for cultural resource mitigation monitoring shall be noted on all applicable construction documents, including demolition plans, grading plans, etc. • The Qualified Archaeologist and TCA Native American Monitor shall attend at least one pre - construction meeting with the Contractor and/or associated Subcontractors (e.g., Grading Contractor) and a representative from the City of Vista's Engineering or Community Development departments to present the archaeological monitoring program as presented in these measures.
• The Qualified Archaeologist shall maintain ongoing collaborative consultation with the TCA Native American Monitor during all ground disturbing or altering activities, as identified above. The Contractor or Grading Contractor shall notify the Director of Community Development & Engineering, preferably through e-mail, of the start and end of all ground - disturbing activities.
• The Qualified Archaeologist and/or TCA Native American Monitor may halt ground - disturbing activities if archaeological artifact deposits or cultural features are discovered.

In general, ground -disturbing activities shall be directed away from these deposits for a short time to allow a determination of potential significance, the subject of which shall be determined by the Qualified Archaeologist and the TCA Native American Monitor. If a determination is made that the unearthed artifact deposits or tribal cultural resources are considered potentially significant, the consulting TCA Tribe(s) shall be notified and consulted in regards to the respectful and dignified treatment of those resources. Ground disturbing activities shall not resume until the Qualified Archaeologist, in consultation with the TCA Native American Monitor, deems the cultural resource or feature has been appropriately documented and/or protected. At the Qualified Archaeologist's discretion, the location of ground disturbing activities may be relocated elsewhere on the project site to avoid further disturbance of cultural resources.
• The avoidance and protection of discovered unknown and significant cultural resources and/or unique archaeological resources is the preferable mitigation for the proposed project. If avoidance is not feasible, culturally appropriate treatment of those resources, including but not limited to funding an ethnographic or ethnohistoric study of the resource(s), and/or developing a data recovery plan may be authorized by the City as the Lead Agency under CEQA. If data recovery is required, then the consulting TCA Tribe(s) shall be notified and consulted in drafting and finalizing any such recovery plan. • Should any cultural resources be found on the project site during construction of the project, consultation with the TCA Tribal Monitor shall occur. Based upon consultation with the TCA monitor, the cultural resources will be relocated for reburial to a portion of the existing site that will remain as open landscaped area (not active recreation areas).

CR-2 Prior to the submission of a grading plan to City staff for review, the Applicant or Owner, and/or Contractor shall enter into a Pre -Excavation Agreement with a Traditionally and Culturally Affiliated D U D E K 20 13 14
FEBRUARY 23

TO: MR. LITTLE
SUBJECT: CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY REPORT FOR THE VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT, CITY OF

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
Native American Tribe ("TCA Tribe"). A copy of the agreement shall be included in the grading plan submission. The purpose of this agreement shall be to formalize protocols and procedures between the Applicant or Owner, and/or Contractor, and the TCA tribe for the protection and treatment of, including but not limited to, Native American human remains, funerary objects, cultural and religious landscapes, ceremonial items, traditional gathering areas and cultural items, located and/or discovered through a monitoring program in conjunction with the construction of the proposed project, including additional archaeological surveys and/or studies, excavations, geotechnical investigations, off -site infrastructure installation, grading, and all other ground disturbing activities.

CR-3 Prior to the release of the Grading Bond, a Monitoring Report and/or Evaluation Report, which shall complywith Government Code Section 6254(r), shall be submitted bythe Qualified Archaeologist, along with the TCA Native American Monitor's notes and comments, to the City Planner for the project administrative record.

CR-4 All cultural materials that are associated with burial and/or funerary goods shall be repatriated to the Most Likely Descendant as determined by the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) per California Public Resources Code Section 5097.98.

CR-5 Recovered cultural material of historic significance, but not of tribal significance, shall be curated with accompanying catalog, photographs, and reports to a San Diego curation facility that meets federal standards per 36 CFR Part 79. If cultural material will be returned to the Tribe(s) rather than curated, diagnostic artifacts or particularly good examples of specific tool types, if such are recovered, should be scanned for 3D printing, with the permission of the Tribe(s). The data from 3D scanning would be curated at an appropriate repository, such as the San Diego Archaeological Center. The cultural material can then be returned to the Tribe(s) for reburial or othertreatment. Recovered cultural material of tribal cultural significance shall be repatriated as stipulated in the pre -excavation agreement as described in CR-2.

CR-6 As specified by California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5, if human remains are found on the project site during construction or during archaeological work, the person responsible for the excavation, or his or her authorized representative, shall immediately notify the San Diego County Coroner's office by telephone. No further excavation or disturbance of the discovery or any nearby area reasonably suspected to overlie adjacent remains (as determined by the Qualified Archaeologist and/or the TCA Native American monitor) shall occur until the Coroner has made the necessary findings as to origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code 5097.98. If such a discovery occurs, a temporary construction exclusion zone shall be established surrounding the area of the discovery so that the area would be protected (as determined by the Qualified Archaeologist and/or the TCA Native American monitor), and consultation and treatment could occur as prescribed by law. As further defined by State law, the Coroner would determine within two working days of being notified if the remains are subject to his or her authority. If the Coroner recognizes the remains to be Native American, he or she shall contact the Native American Heritage Commission within 24 hours. The Native American Heritage Commission would then make a determination as to the Most Likely Descendent. If Native American remains are discovered, the remains shall be kept in situ ("in place"), or in a secure location in close proximity to where they were found, until after the Medical Examiner makes its determination and notifications, and until after the Most Likely Descendant is identified. The analysis of the remains shall only occur on -site in the presence of a Most Likely Descendant. The specific locations of Native American burials and reburials will be proprietary and not disclosed to the general public. According to California Health and Safety Code, six or more human burials at one location constitute a cemetery D U D E K 20 13 15

(Section 8100), and disturbance of Native American cemeteries is a felony (Section 7052). In the event that the project proponent and the MILD are in disagreement regarding the disposition of the remains, State law will apply, and the mediation process will occur with NAHC. In the event that mediation is not successful, the landowner shall rebury the remains at a location free from future disturbance (see Public Resources Code Section 5097.98(e) and 5097.94(k)).

Re: Vista Melrose Residential (PN 14613) Project, San Diego County Dear Ms. Montifolca:

A record search of the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) Sacred Lands File (SLF) was completed for the information submitted for the above referenced project. The results were positive. Please contact the La Jolla Band of Luiseno Indians, the Pechanga Band of Indians, and the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians on the attached list for information. Please note that tribes do not always record their sacred sites in the SLF, nor are they required to do so.

A SLF search is not a substitute for consultation with tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with a project's geographic area. Other sources of cultural resources should also be contacted for information regarding known and recorded sites, such as the appropriate regional California Historical Research Information System (CHRIS) archaeological Information Center for the presence of recorded archaeological sites.

Attached is a list of Native American tribes who may also have knowledge of cultural resources

COMMISSIONER
in the project area. This list should provide a starting place in locating areas of potential Isaac o
tan
Ohlone-Costaroan
adverse impact within the proposed project area. Please contact all of those listed; if they cannot supply information, they may recommend others with specific knowledge. By contacting all those listed, your organization will be better able to respond to claims of failure to

COMMISSIONER
Buffy McQuillen
consult with the appropriate tribe. If a response has not been received within two weeks of Yokayo Porno, Yuki,
notification, the Commission requests that you follow-up with a telephone call or email to Nomlaki
ensure that the project information has been received.

COMMISSIONER If you receive notification of change of addresses and phone numbers from tribes, please notify Wayne Nelson the NAHC. With your assistance, we can assure that our lists contain current information.

RE: Request for Information for the Vista Melrose Residential Project, City of Vista, San Diego County, CA
Dear Ms. Murillo,
The Pechanga Band of Indians ("the Tribe") appreciates your request for information regarding the above referenced Project. After reviewing the provided maps and our internal documents, we have determined that the Project -area is not within our Reservation land's, although it is located in Our Ancestral Territory. At this time, we are interested in participating in this Project based upon our 'Ayelkwish/Traditional Knowledge of the area. This Project is situated 4.87 miles due east to our Traditional Cultural Property. There are two Ancestral Placenames at .60 and .78 of -a -mile (respectively) away from the APE. This Project is .37 of -a -mile from a large cultural -archaeological site. Buena Vista Creek is situated .46 of -a -mile due north of the Project's boundary which is very concerning, because of our Culture's -practice for the Ancestors being buried near confluences -of or near long-term waterways. A 1900 Historic Plat Map shows this Project -parcel being .34 of -a - mile due east of "J. Boyle's House" and .55 of -a -mile due west of "P. Boyle's House." Typically, a good place to live for the Ancestors became a good place to live for historic -era homesteaders.

Historic aerials from 1938-forward depict this property as being undeveloped until the early 1960's, when a church was erected on the western -portion of the parcel. From 1938 to the present-day the majority of the field, on eastern -portion has remained undeveloped. The Tribe anticipates that intact native soils lay beneath the east -side of this parcel's plow -zone.

Considering this information provided above, the nearby presence or Ancestral human remains, and because of extensive previously recorded sites in this Project's vicinity the Tribe therefore, is interested in participating in this Project. The Pechanga Tribe believes that the possibility of recovering sensitive subsurface resources during ground -disturbing activities for this Project is extremely high.

The Tribe is dedicated to providing comprehensive cultural information to you and your firm for inclusion in the archaeological study as well as to the Lead Agency for CEQA review. At this time, the Tribe requests the following so we may continue the consultation process and to provide adequate and appropriate recommendations for the Project:

Sacred Is The Duty Trusted Unto Our Care And With Honor We Rise To The Need

1) Notification once the Project begins the entitlement process, if it has not already; 2) Copies of all applicable archaeological reports, site records, proposed grading plans and environmental documents (EA/IS/MND/EIR, etc);
3) Government -to -government consultation with the Lead Agency; and 4) The Tribe believes that monitoring by a San Diego County qualified archaeologist and a professional Pechanga Tribal Monitor may be required during earthmoving activities. Therefore, the Tribe reserves its right to make additional comments and recommendations once the environmental documents have been received and fully reviewed. Further, in the event that subsurface cultural resources are identified, the Tribe requests consultation with the Project proponent and Lead Agency regarding the treatment and disposition of all artifacts.

As a Sovereign governmental entity, the Tribe is entitled to appropriate and adequate government -to -government consultation regarding the proposed Project. We would like you and your client to know that the Tribe does not consider initial inquiry letters from project consultants to constitute appropriate government -to -government consultation, but rather tools to obtain further information about the Project area. Therefore, the Tribe reserves its rights to participate in the formal environmental review process, including government -to -government consultation with the Lead Agency, and requests to be included in all correspondence regarding this Project.

Please note that we are interested in participating in surveys within Luiseno Ancestral territory.

Prior to conducting any surveys, please contact the Cultural Department to schedule specifics. If you have any additional questions or comments, please contact me at pmacarro@pechanga- nsn.gov or 951-770-6306.

Re: Vista Melrose Residential Project, City of Vista, California Dear Ms. Murillo,
of LoisPho
This letter is written on behalf of the Rincon Band of Luiseno Indians ("Rincon Band" or "Tribe"), a federally recognized Indian Tribe and sovereign government. We have received your notification regarding the above referenced project and we thank you for the opportunity to provide information pertaining to cultural resources. The identified location is within the Territory of the Luiseno people, and is also within Rincon Band's specific Area of Historic Interest (AHI).

Based on the information provided to us, the Rincon Band recommends conducting an archaeological/cultural resources study, to include an archeological record search and complete intensive survey of the property. Additionally, we ask that a professional Tribal monitor from the Rincon Band to accompany the archaeologist during the survey.

The Rincon Band further requests to consult directly with the lead agency regarding project impacts to cultural resources. While it is not the responsibility of consultants to facilitate State -mandated consultation, the request is included in this letter, so the lead agency is aware of the Tribe's concerns about the project.

If you have additional questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our office at your convenience at (760) 749-1092 or via electronic mail at [email protected]. We look forward to working together to protect and preserve our cultural assets.

Subject: Cultural Resources Inventory Report for the Vista Melrose Residential Project, City of Vista, California
Dear Mr. Little:
14613
This letter documents the negative cultural resources inventory conducted by Dudek for the Vista Melrose Residential Project (Project), located in the City of Vista, California (Figure 1). The Project would consist of the construction of a 34-single family residential development, a private road, dog park, a tot lot, and a rock garden. The Project is located at 560 S. Melrose Drive and 622 S. Melrose Drive in the City of Vista. The City of Vista (City) is the lead agency responsible for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). In accordance with CEQA, Dudek performed a cultural resources inventory for the entire Project area.

The Project area consists of approximately 5.28 acres encompassing Assessor Parcel Numbers (APNs) 166-280- 60-00, 166-280-61-00, and 166-280-18-00) (Figure 2).

The SCIC records search and the pedestrian survey did not identify cultural resources within the Project area, however, there are two historic -age structures located within the Project area. The structures are considered built environment resources and are addressed in a separate Built Environment Report (Frank and Greeley 2022). Due to the presence of historic -age structures in the Project area, and because alluvial soils, which has potential to contain subsurface cultural materials, are present throughout the Project area, there is moderate potential for subsurface resources. Cultural resources monitoring with a qualified archaeologist and Luiseno Native American monitor is recommended during initial ground -disturbing activities within the Project area to assess the extent of previous disturbances and the potential for buried archaeological resources. Monitoring can be reduced orterminated should no discoveries be made or if documentation is provided which demonstrates that ground -disturbing activities will be occurring in sediments with no potential for cultural resources.

SUBJECT: CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY REPORT FOR THE VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT, CITY OF

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
1 Project Description and Location
The Project area is bound by Matagual Drive to the north, Las Palmas Drive to the south, and S. Melrose Drive to the west. Buena Vista Creek is located approximately 0.4 miles to the north of the Project area. The Project area falls within Section 25 of Township 11 South, Range 4 West of the San Luis Rey, California 7.5-minute Quadrangle (Figure 1). The Project area consists of approximately 5.28 acres encompassing APNs 166-280-60- 00, 166-280-61-00, and 166-280-18-00) (Figure 2).

The Project would consist of the construction of a 34-single family residential development, a private road, dog park, a tot lot, and a rock garden located at 560 S. Melrose Drive and 622 S. Melrose Drive in the City of Vista, California. The northeastern section of the Project area is vacant, the Thriving Life Church and associated parking lot is located on the western section of the Project area, and a single-family residence is located in the southeastern section of the Project area. Demolition would be required as part of the Project implementation to remove the existing church, parking lot, and residence. 2 Regulatory Framework

2.1 The California Register of Historic Resources (Public Resources Code section 5020 et seq.)
Under CEQA, the term "historical resource" includes but is not limited to "any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record, or manuscript which is historically or archaeologically significant, or is significant in the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educational, social, political, military, or cultural annals of California" (California Public Resources Code section 5020.10)). In 1992, the California legislature established CRHR "to be used by state and local agencies, private groups, and citizens to identify the state's historical resources and to indicate what properties are to be protected, to the extent prudent and feasible, from substantial adverse change" (California Public Resources Code section 5024.1(a)). A resource is eligible for listing in the CRHR if the State Historical Resources Commission determines that it is a significant resource and that it meets any of the following National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) criteria:
■ Associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of California's history and cultural heritage.
■ Associated with the lives of persons important in our past. ■ Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the work of an important creative individual, or possesses high artistic values. ■ Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. (California Public Resources Code section 5024.1(c).) Resources less than 50 years old are not considered for listing in the CRHR, but may be considered if it can be demonstrated that sufficient time has passed to understand the historical importance of the resource (see 14 CCR, section 4852(d)(2)).

D U D E K 14613 2

TO: MR. LITTLE
SUBJECT: CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY REPORT FOR THE VISTA MELROSE RESIDENTIAL PROJECT, CITY OF

VISTA, CALIFORNIA
The CRHR protects cultural resources by requiring evaluations of the significance of prehistoric and historic resources. The criteria for the CRHR are nearly identical to those for the NRHP, and properties listed or formally designated as eligible for listing on the NRHP are automatically listed on the CRHR, as are the state landmarks and points of interest. The CRHR also includes properties designated under local ordinances or identified through local historical resource surveys. The State Historic Preservation Officer maintains the CRHR.

2.4 California Environmental Quality Act
As described further below, the following CEQA statutes and CEQA Guidelines are of relevance to the analysis of archaeological and historic resources:

1. California Public Resources Code section 21083.2(g): Defines "unique archaeological resource."

4. California Public Resources Code sections 21083.2(b)-(c) and CEQA Guidelines section 15126.4: Provide information regardingthe mitigation framework for archaeological and historic resources, including options D U D E K 14613 3

California law protects Native American burials, skeletal remains, and associated grave goods, regardless of their antiquity, and provides for the sensitive treatment and disposition of those remains. Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 requires that if human remains are discovered in any place other than a dedicated cemetery, no further disturbance or excavation of the site or nearby area reasonably suspected to contain human remains shall occur until the County coroner has examined the remains (California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5[b]). If the coroner determines or has reason to believe the remains are those of a Native American, the coroner must contact the NAHC within 24 hours (California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5[c]). In accordance with California Public Resources Code Section 5097.98(a), the NAHC will notify the Most Likely Descendant (MILD). With the permission of the landowner, the MLD may inspectthe site of discovery. Within 48 hours of being granted access to the site, the MILD may recommend means of treatment or disposition, with appropriate dignity, of the human remains and associated grave goods.

Section 15064.5(d) and (e) contain additional provisions regarding human remains. Regarding Native American human remains, paragraph (d) provides:

When an initial study identifies the existence of, or the probable likelihood of, Native American human remains within the project, a lead agency shall work with the appropriate Native Americans as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission as provided in Public Resources Code SS5097.98. The applicant may develop an agreement for treating or disposing of, with appropriate dignity, the human remains and any items associated with Native American burials with the appropriate Native Americans as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission. Action implementing such an agreement is exempt from:

1. The general prohibition on disinterring, disturbing, or removing human remains from any location other than a dedicated cemetery (Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5); and

2. The requirement of CEQA and the Coastal Act.

[A]n archaeological artifact, object, or site about which it can be clearly demonstrated that, without merely adding to the current body of knowledge, there is a high probability that it meets any of the following criteria:

1. Contains information needed to answer important scientific research questions and that there is a demonstrable public interest in that information.

2. Has a special and particular quality such as being the oldest of its type or the best available example of its type.

1. Planning construction to avoid archaeological sites.

2. Deeding archaeological sites into permanent conservation easements.

3. Capping or covering archaeological sites with a layer of soil before building on the sites.

4. Planning parks, greenspace, or other open space to incorporate archaeological sites." (Pub. Resources Code section 21083.2(b)(1)-(4).)
Public Resources Code section 21083.2(d) states that "[e]xcavation as mitigation shall be restricted to those parts of the unique archaeological resource that would be damaged or destroyed by the project. Excavation as mitigation shall not be required for a unique archaeological resource if the lead agency determines that testing or studies already completed have adequately recovered the scientifically consequential information from and about the resource, if this determination is documented in the environmental impact report." The rules for mitigating impacts to archaeological resources to qualify as "historic resources" are slightly different.

B. Preservation in place may be accomplished by, but is not limited to, the following:

1. Planning construction to avoid archaeological sites;

2. Incorporation of sites within parks, greenspace, or other open space;

3. Coveringthe archaeological sites with a layer of chemically stable soil before buildingtennis courts, parking lots, or similar facilities on the site[; and]

4. Deeding the site into a permanent conservation easement.

Thus, although section 21083.2 of the Public Resources Code, in addressing "unique archaeological sites," provides for specific mitigation options "in no order of preference," CEQA Guidelines section 15126.4(b), in addressing "historical resources of an archaeological nature," provides that" [p] reservation in place is the preferred manner of mitigating impacts to archaeological sites."
Under CEQA, "[w]hen data recovery through excavation is the only feasible mitigation," the lead agency may cause to be prepared and adopt a "data recovery plan," prior to any excavation being undertaken. The data recovery plan must make "provision for adequately recovering the scientifically consequential information from and about the historic resource." (CEQA Guidelines section 15126.4(b)(3)(C).) The data recovery plan also "must be deposited with the California Historical Resources Regional Information Center." (ibid.) Further, "[i]f an artifact must be removed during project excavation or testing, curation may be an appropriate mitigation." (Ibid.) However, "[d]ata recovery shall not be required for an historical resource if the lead agency determines that testing or studies already completed have adequately recovered the scientifically consequential information from and about the archaeological or historic resource, provided that determination is documented in the EIR and that the studies are deposited with the California Historical Resources Regional Information Center." (CEQA Guidelines section 15126.4(b)(3)(D).)

The City's goal is to encourage the preservation and protection of these valuable resources through research, inventorying, and education (City of Vista 2012).
3 Methods

3.1 Records Search
Dudek conducted a California Historical Resources Information Systems (CHRIS) recordssearch forthe Projectarea and a one -mile buffer at the South Coastal Information Center (SCIC) at San Diego State University on August 1, 2022. The records search results indicate that 53 previous cultural resources studies have been conducted within one -mile of the Project area. Of the 53 previous studies, two studies intersect the Project area and are listed in Table 1 below. These studies consist of a historic resource survey and a cultural resources evaluation for a master plan. None of the previous cultural resources studies identified any resources within the Project area. The studies that do not intersect the area are included in Confidential Appendix A.

Brian F. Smith and A Cultural Resources Evaluation for the Vista SD-11524 Associates 2007 and Buena Sanitation District 2007 Sewer Master Plan Update
The SCIC records search did not identify any cultural resources within the Project area. The records search did identify 29 cultural resources within the one -mile search buffer of the Project area (Table 2). Of the total 29 resources identified in the one -mile buffer, 19 are prehistoric resources and 10 are historic resources. No historic addresses are located within the Project area, however, 12 historic addresses are located within the one -mile search buffer. The results of the records search and all DPR forms are attached as part of Confidential Appendix A.

vacant portion of the Project. By 1978, Las Palmas Drive is fully developed. The 1980 aerial imagery shows the Life Thriving Church parking lot paved with asphalt. From 1980 to 1984 the aerial imagery shows no changes in the Project area. By 1985, the aerial imagery reveals grading disturbances immediately west of the Project area for the current Breeze Hill Park and the park is developed by 1986. The aerial imagery of 1988 to 1990 shows no changes in the Project area. The 1991 aerial imagery shows construction of Breeze Hill Elementary and the school is fully developed by 1993. There are no changes seen in the Project area from 1993 to 1997. The 1998 aerial imagery shows one structure built immediately south of the Life Thriving Church in the Project area. The 1998 to 2018 aerial images reveals no changes in the Project area. A review of the historic aerials revealed that there are at least two historic -age structures within the Project area. The structures are considered built environment resources and are addressed in a separate Built Environment Report (Frank and Greeley 2022).

2022. These letters attempted to solicit additional information relating to Native American resources that may be impacted by the Project. Native American representatives were requested to define a general area where known resources intersect the Project area.

In compliance with Assembly Bill 52, the City, as lead agency, is responsible for conducting government to government consultation with tribal entities.

3.5 Intensive Pedestrian Survey
Dudek archaeologist David Faith conducted an intensive level pedestrian survey of the proposed Project area on August 4, 2022. Saving Sacred Sites Native American monitor Jessica Alexander participated in the pedestrian survey. All survey work was conducted employing standard archaeological procedures and techniques consistent with the Secretary of the Interior Standards. Fifteen -meter interval survey transects were conducted in a north -south direction for the Project area. Within the transects, the ground surface was examined for prehistoric artifacts (e.g., flaked stone tools, tool-making debris, stone millingtools, ceramics, fire -affected rock), soil discoloration that might indicate the presence of a cultural midden, soil depressions, features indicative of the current or former presence of structures or buildings (e.g., standing exterior walls, post holes, foundations), and historic artifacts (e.g., metal, glass, ceramics, building materials). Ground disturbances such as burrows, cut banks, and drainages were also visually inspected for exposed subsurface materials.

Modern debris (e.g., refuse and destroyed recreational vehicle) were strewn throughout the Project area.

4 Summary and Management Considerations

4.1 Archaeological Recommendations
Dudek's cultural resources inventory of the Project indicates that there is moderate sensitivity for identifying intact subsurface archaeological deposits during Project implementation. The SCIC records search and the pedestrian survey did not identify any cultural resources within the Project area. However, there are two historic -age structures (e.g. church and single-family property) located in the Project area. Due to the presence of historic -age structures in the Project area, and because alluvial soils, which has potential to contain subsurface cultural materials, are present throughoutthe Project area, there is moderate potential for subsurface resources. Cultural resources monitoring with a qualified archaeologist and Luiseno Native American monitor is recommended during initial ground -disturbing activities within the Project area to assess the extent of previous disturbances and the potential for buried archaeological resources. Monitoring can be reduced or terminated should no discoveries be made or if documentation is provided which demonstrates that ground -disturbing activities will be occurring in sediments with no potential for cultural resources.

Unanticipated Discovery of Archaeological Resources
In the event that archaeological resources (sites, features, or artifacts) are exposed during construction activities for the Project, all construction work occurring within 100 feet of the find shall immediately stop until a qualified archaeologist meeting the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards can evaluate the significance of the find. Construction activities may continue in other areas, butshould be redirected a safe distance from the find. If the new discovery is evaluated and found to be significant under CEQA and avoidance is notfeasible, additional work such as data recovery may be warranted. A data recovery plan shall be developed by the qualified archaeologist in consultation with the City and Native American representatives, if applicable. Ground disturbance can continue only after the resources has been properly mitigated and with approval by the City.

Unanticipated Discovery of Human Remains
In accordance with Section 7050.5 of the California Health and Safety Code, if human remains are found, the County Coroner shall be immediately notified of the discovery. No further excavation or disturbance of the site or any nearby area reasonably suspected to overlie adjacent remains shall occur until the appropriate treatment and disposition of the human remains. If the County Coroner determines that the remains are, or are believed to be, Native American, he or she shall notify the NAHC in Sacramento within 24 hours. In accordance with California Public Resources Code Section 5097.98, the NAHC must immediately notify the person or persons it believes to be the MLD from the deceased Native American. The MILD shall complete inspection within 48 hours of being granted access to the site and make recommendations for the treatment and disposition, in consultation with the property owner, of the human remains.
