Residential (HDR) and subdivide an existing parcel located at 1051 Bonita
Street for condominium purposes to accommodate the construction of four

considered a "project" by the California Environmental Quality Act
("CEQA") (Pub. Resources Code §21000 et. seq.);

1990 Historical Survey as a "D" rated structure with severe alterations while
the 1000 block of Bonita Street is listed with a National Register Historic
Preservation (NRNP) Status Code: 5S3 in the City's 2003 Update to the
Historical Resources Survey.
D. That the demolition of the structures at the subject property and construction
of two duplex buildings to accommodate condominiums will not have a

events within the City. Furthermore, there are significant alterations to the
property from its original condition. The residences along Bonita Street are
not eligible for individual listing on the City's Historic Survey.
