Project Address: 406 E. Alvarado St.
Project Applicant: Lien Pham, FWA Properties, Inc.
Project Planner: Irene Aceituno, Planning Technician
Council District: CC District No. 4
A call for review by the Historic Preservation Commission to review Staff’s decision of Minor Certificate of Appropriateness (MINCOA 18158-2022) which approved the request for the in-kind replacement of 20 original wood windows on a contributing resource within the Lincoln Park Historic District. Pursuant to the Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed project is statutorily exempt from CEQA under Section 15268 as Staff’s decision on the project is ministerial. Separately, the project is exempt pursuant to Section 15601(b)(3), Common Sense Exemption in that it can be seen with certainty that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment, therefore the activity is not subject to CEQA. The project is also covered by CEQA under Section 15331, Class 31 - Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation Activities and Section 15301, Class 1 (Existing Facilities).
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Historic Preservation Commission upholds Staff’s decision to approve MINCOA 18158-2022.
