Introduction

1.1. Purpose of Document
The Historic Preservation Relocation Plan provides rehabilitation recommendations for protecting the character-defining features of the historical resource to be retained during relocation. As a historical resource, the project is subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and following these guidelines will ensure that the project will have mitigated impacts to a less-than-significant level (CEQA Guidelines 15064.5). In this case, the resource is defined as the historic residence at 1980 Yountville Cross Road that will be moved to a new location on the same site. The Historic Preservation Relocation Plan includes an overview of the project description, protective measures and construction specifications, and relocation best practices.

1.2. Project Description
The proposed project for 1980 Yountville Cross Road is relocation and rehabilitation of the historic residence as a duplex for low-income households. This will be part of an infill subdivision development on the remainder of the site that includes construction of eight new single-family homes. It should be noted that the number of new residences proposed are the minimum number required for the lot, per California State Legislation.

As part of the project the three non-historic outbuildings will be removed.

The proposed modifications to the historic farmhouse were initially described in the drawings developed by Ivan Lukrich, Architect dated March 15, 2023. The proposed project for Lots 2-8 is developed by Kathy Austin, architect dated March 24, 2023
The proposed scope of work for the historic residence included in the March 15, 2023 design is summarized, below:
• The additions at the north side of the building will be removed to the limit of the c1875 farmhouse footprint and will be replaced with a small new two-story stair addition. • The wrap around porch will be retained on the south and east elevation. On the east and north elevations, the porch will be reconstructed to the extent of the new addition and will include the pointed arched openings with multi-lite windows and glazed wood doors. • The residence will be moved approximately 60 feet south to front on Yountville Cross Road Based on feedback from the Town of Yountville, the proposed design for the historic residence was revised to include a two-bedroom unit, as described in the revised drawings developed by Ivan Lukrich, Architect dated Historic Preservation Relocation Plan
1890 Yountville Crossroads, Yountville, CA 2 July 2023

May 5, 2023. The only change from the scope described above is that the addition on the north side of the building will be replaced with a small one-story addition instead of the two-story addition.

1.3. Summary of Historic Resource
The September 29, 2022 DPR form 523A that was prepared for the subject property by Kara Brunzell provides an historic context, building descriptions and an evaluation of the property for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register). Refer to the document, included in Appendix A, for details and photographs. The following are selected excerpts:

Description
The property is located in a rural-residential neighborhood north of Downtown Yountville, near the transition between the town and the vineyards that surround it. The sloping 1.32-acre property at 1980 Yountville Cross Road has a large single-family residence set behind a large lawn and curved driveway. There is a large garage behind the house near the northwest parcel boundary and a guest house to the northeast of the main residence. Two small pumphouses are located between the house and garage. Paved driveways lead to the house, the various buildings, yards and a koi pond. There are clusters of trees and vegetation around the edges of the property and its eastern half.

The two-story Craftsman-style house has an irregular plan and a cross-gabled roof with a hipped-roof porch wrapping around the first story. The projecting porch on the main (southeast) façade is supported by heavy square columns that form archways under the hipped roof; columns are clad in wood shingles. The porch shelters the main entrance, which is centered and fitted with a fully glazed paneled wood door. It is accessed via a wide set of concrete steps. The house has double-hung six-over-one wood sash windows and is clad in wood shingle siding. There is a brick chimney on the northeast elevation. The porch on the northeast elevation of the house is glassed-in with fixed cottage windows and a set of fully glazed paneled wood doors right of center, which are accessed via a wide set of concrete steps.

The historic residence includes a 2-story vernacular farmhouse originally constructed circa 1875 that was modified in the 1920s in the Craftsman style. The structure retains the essential form of the vernacular farmhouse including the wood-framed construction, two story rectangular floor plan with gable roof and masonry chimney at the end wall. The structure also retains elements and distinctive detailing of the Craftsman era including the shingle cladding, wrap around porch with pointed arch openings and six-overone wood sash windows.

1.3.1. Significance
1980 Yountville Cross Road appears to be eligible for the California Register under Criterion 3. It is an excellent example of a vernacular farmhouse originally constructed during the late nineteenth century and updated in the 1920s with Craftsman style details. The house exemplifies architectural change over time within the historic period, retaining the essential form and plan of a simple early farmhouse with an overlay of Craftsman features including shingle cladding, fully glazed wood front door, expansive wraparound porch Historic Preservation Relocation Plan

with heavy square columns, pointed-arch openings, six-over-one wood sash windows, and fixed multi-light windows on the side elevation sunporch.

Outbuildings including the guest house and garage have been heavily altered over the years and do not contribute to the significance of the property.

Period of Significance
The period significance for the subject property is ca. 1875-1928, indicating the period when the property is most closely associated with its original design and construction, extending through to the Craftsman era alterations.

1.3.2. Character-defining Features
Character-defining features of the Vernacular Farmhouse includes:
• Two stories in height
• Rectangular floor plan
• Wood-frame construction
• Gable roof
• Exposed brick chimney
Character-defining features of the Craftsman additions/alterations:
• Shingle cladding
• Fully glazed entry doors
• Expansive, shingled wrap around porch with heavy square columns open pointed arch openings some filled in with fixed multi-lite windows
• Six-over-one wood sash windows in single and paired configurations Historic Preservation Relocation Plan

B10. Significance (continued):

Yountville
Yountville founder George Yount came to California in 1831 and settled in Napa Valley in 1836, when he received the 12,000-acre Rancho Caymus from the Mexican government. A trapper and jack-of-all-trades, Yount constructed the first wood building in the valley to the north of the town site. He employed the local Indians to farm his expansive ranch and became famous as the first white American to live permanently in Napa Valley. Yount built a flour mill and a sawmill, both of which were essential to the development of the area, circa 1853. Like other holders of Mexican land grants, Yount’s title to his rancho was challenged in the 1850s. In 1855, however, Yount obtained clear title to the property and established the community he called Sebastopol. The original town site consisted of a few city blocks north of Madison Street, which was on the border between Rancho Caymus and Rancho Napa. The town had a store, blacksmith shop, and hotel by 1856, and settlers soon began building houses south of Madison. Yount died in 1865, and two years later the town residents voted to honor him dropping the name Sebastopol and calling the entire town Yountville.1 Early settlers ran stock and began experimenting with growing grain and fruit. German born wine merchant Gottlieb Groezinger built a stone winery on Washington Street in 1870, and by 1873 Yountville rivaled St. Helena as a local center of wine production. Groezinger subdivided a portion of his land into twelve blocks of town lots in 1874. Groezinger’s addition was south of Madison Street and bounded on the southwest by the Napa Valley Railroad line. By 1895, maps show Yountville consisting of about 16 blocks between the cemetery and the intersection of the railroad tracks and Yount Street. In 1968, the Groezinger winery was rehabilitated and opened as the Vintage 1870 shopping center.2

Yountville grew in tandem with the Home, with saloons and other veteran-serving businesses proliferating. During the twentieth century the Veterans Home became overcrowded, and the original buildings began showing signs of age. World War I veteran Colonel Nelson M.

Holderman supervised the complete rebuilding of Veteran’s Home and created new many new programs between 1926 and 1953. The population of the home fell during the 1960s and 1970s as new federal social programs reduced the number of needy veterans. In the twenty-first century the Veterans Home continues to house over 1,200 veterans.3 The Yountville Community Hall opened in 1926, and by the 1950s, population had grown enough for the establishment of sanitation and water districts. While Yountville always remained small, quiet, and rural, a wave of population growth took place in the 1960s as aspiring winemakers and city residents seeking a quieter environment were drawn to the town, and Yountville was incorporated in 1965. By that time, its population had reached 2,600, with 2,000 of those Veterans Home residents. In 1994, Thomas Keller purchased the French Laundry restaurant, retaining the old name. Keller transformed the French Laundry into a Michelin-starred dining experience, gaining fame and starting Yountville on its path from agricultural town to culinary mecca. By 2003, the town population was 3,300, over a third of whom lived at the Veterans Home. Today, Yountville remains a small rural community, but has shifted from a focus on agriculture and veterans to become a wine and food tourist destination.4 1980 Yountville Cross Road
The house at 1980 Yountville Cross Road was built about 1875. One of the earliest owners of the property was Frank T. Eisen, a pioneer California winemaker based in Fresno. He sold the tract to L. H. McGeorge in 1882. Lucius Henry McGeorge planted eight acres of vineyard shortly after purchasing the property. McGeorge, who had previously resided in St. Helena, was a school trustee and Justice of the Peace in Yountville. He sold the property to W. P. Kelly (1846 – 1924) in 1890 and moved to Oakland. In the 1890s, William Perry Kelly owned the property and farmed the land, growing corn, alfalfa, and nut trees. He was a bachelor and appears to have lived on the property with his sister Mary, who was also unmarried. The Kelly family was originally from South Carolina, where their father Mansel had served in the Confederate Army during the Civil War. In 1898, William left for the Klondike gold fields and deeded the property to his sister. Mary Kelly continued to live on the property with her elderly father, who operated the farm. 5 Mary Kelly sold the property to Paul and Theresia Bruckner in 1912. In 1914, Paul Bruckner sold to Joseph Pedroni. Pedroni sold to Edgar Gifford in 1920. The Giffords were a prominent family in Napa Valley, and the property took on its modern form under their ownership.

Edgar Russell Gifford (1858-1940) was born in New York and married Mary Ann Jopson (1864-1939) in 1885. They had two daughters and a son between 1887 and 1891. They moved to Napa in 1904. Edgar Gifford bought the J. A. McClelland & Co. firm and started his company, E.R. Gifford & Co. General Merchandise, on First Street. The Giffords owned a substantial Queen Anne residence on Randolph Street in Napa (which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places) and apparently used the property in Yountville as a country retreat. In 1928, Gifford remodeled the original c1875 ranch residence to its current form. Between 1925 and 1935, he oversaw the construction of the octagonal horse barn on the property. Based on their materials and style, the guest house and garage were probably also constructed between 1925 and 1935. The guest house would have been used as an ancillary dwelling for farm laborers or a caretaker and the garage was probably another horse or animal barn. The prune orchard on the property, which was still bearing in the 1970s, also appears to have been planted during this era, since it appears on aerial photographs by 1940. Mary Gifford also planted a large flower garden at the ranch and was awarded for her dahlias at the San Francisco Dahlia Society. Mary Gifford died in 1939 and Edgar Gifford died the following year.

Melanphy. Reginald and Roma Melanphy sold the property to Andrew L. Pelissa and Veola A. Pelissa in 1945, who also sold the property to Bert and Sophie Banks that same year. Bert Banks (1888-1957) owned the Banks Building Supply Company in Napa. Bert Banks died at the home at 1980 Yountville Crossroad in 1957. The property was passed on to his daughter and her husband, Eleanor and Clarence Adams. After the death of her husband, Sophie M. Banks (1891-1990) worked at the St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church in Yountville until she died in 1990.7
Clarence and Eleanor Adams sold the property to the Tonascia’s in 1959. Silvio Tonascia (1900-1978) and his wife, Marie Jeanne Tonascia (1906-1993), lived at the home and operated their family market in Yountville. Silvio Tonascia started the Tonascia Brothers Market in 1916 and ran the business until his retirement in 1965. Silvio and Marie Tonascia’s son, Richard LeRoy Tonascia (b.1926) and his wife Louise Lorraine Tonascia (1928-2020) also lived on the property after they got married in 1948. They moved to a home in Napa in the 1950s, where they had their daughter, Karen Jane. In 1980, the octagonal barn was demolished, and Marie Tonascia sold the back part of the property to be developed for condominiums. Marie Tonascia continued Tonascia’s Country Market until its closure in 1983. After his parents died, Richard Tonascia and Louise moved into the house again. 8 Steven Charles Rosa (b1952) and his wife Phyllis Joyce Rosa (b.1942) lived at the guest house with their daughter, Doreen D. Castles. They were married in 1976 in Nevada. In the 1970s, the property on Yountville Cross Road was a prune farm that offered pick your own prunes. Dennis Michael Hoffman and his brother, John Robert Hoffman, also lived in the property’s guest house. 9 Figure 1: Aerial of 1980 Yountville Cross Road, c1965. 7 Grant Deeds, County Recorder, Napa County, California; Napa Journal, “$75,000 Estate of E.R.

Evaluation:

The National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) require that a significance criterion from A-D or 1-4 (respectively) be met for a resource to be eligible.

Criterion A/1: 1980 Yountville Cross Road is not associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history. The property is generally associated with the residential and agricultural development of Yountville from the late nineteenth century to the early twentieth century. Research has not revealed that the property is significant within that or any other historic context.

Therefore, the property is recommended not eligible to the NRHP or CRHR under Criterion A/1.

Criterion B/2: The property is not associated with the life of persons important to our history. The first families who lived on the property were not significant contributors to Yountville’s or Napa Valley’s development, and research has revealed no important professional accomplishments or lasting impact on local history or on agriculture. E. R. Gifford was a prominent local merchant and an important member of the Napa community during his lifetime, but the Gifford family’s City of Napa house is listed on the NRHP and is more significantly associated with him under Criterion B/2. Therefore, the 1980 Yountville Cross Road lacks the strength of association required for eligibility under Criterion B/2. The property is recommended not eligible to the NRHP or CRHR under Criterion B/2.

Criterion C/3: The property is significant for its architecture. It is an excellent example of a vernacular farmhouse originally constructed during the late nineteenth century and updated in the 1920s with Craftsman style details. Once common in the region, this property type is becoming increasingly rare. The house exemplifies architectural change over time within the historic period, retaining the essential form and plan of a simple early farmhouse with an overlay of Craftsman features including shingle cladding, fully glazed wood front door, expansive wraparound porch with pointed-arch openings, six-over-one wood sash windows, and fixed multi-light windows on the side elevation sunporch. An architecturally significant octagonal barn (an extremely rare property type) on the property was demolished in 1980. Outbuildings including the guest house and garage have been heavily altered over the years and do not contribute to the

Page 20 of 20 ends

Criterion D/4: In rare instances, buildings themselves can serve as sources of important information about historic construction materials or technologies and be significant under Criterion D/4. 1980 Yountville Cross Road is an example of a well-understood type of construction and does not appear to be a principal source of important information in this regard.

Historic integrity is defined as the authenticity of a property’s historic identity, evidenced by the survival of physical characteristics that existed during its historic period. There are seven aspects of integrity: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. Loss of integrity, if sufficiently great, overwhelms significance, rendering a property ineligible for historic listing. The main resident at 1980 Yountville Cross Road has not been moved and therefore retains integrity of location. The composition of elements that constitute the form, plan, space, structure, and style of the building have not been altered outside the period of significance. The building’s integrity of materials and workmanship is evident in the survival of exterior details that date from the period of significance.

The property retains sufficient significant physical characteristics from its historic-era construction to convey its historic qualities and therefore retains integrity of feeling. Recent use as a residence allows it to convey integrity of association. Therefore, the main residence conveys its historic significance through all seven aspects of integrity. The small guest house and garage have not been as well maintained as the house and both have been heavily altered outside the historic period. The two pump houses are ancillary buildings that lack significance. For these reasons, only the primary residence contributes to the historic character of the property.

The property is recommended eligible for listing on the NRHP and CRHR and qualifies as a historical resource under CEQA.
