CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
160 PACIFIC STREET
PROPOSAL: DEMOLITION OF AN EXISTING ONE (1) CAR GARAGE AND REPLACEMENT WITH
A THREE (3) CAR GARAGE. ADDITION OF 635 SQUARE FEET TO THE REAR OF
THE EXISTING 1,086 SQUARE FOOT "C" RATED SPANISH COLONIAL REVIVAL
DWELLING.
In accordance with Ordinance No. 1001 which was adopted June 20, 1988, by the Tustin City Council, the
Community Development Director has the authority to approve, approve with conditions, or deny
Certificates of Appropriateness for improvements requiring a City building permit for property located
within a Cultural Resource District. The proposed project involves the demolition of a stucco -clad flat -
roofed one (1) car garage that matches the existing dwelling. A three (3) car replacement garage is
proposed in the rear yard. A 635 addition is proposed to the rear of the dwelling to accommodate a
master bedroom, bathroom, and closet. The existing structure is identified with a "C" rating in the City of
Tustin Historical Resources Survey Report. Both the replacement garage and dwelling addition exhibit
colors, materials, and architecture that represent a Spanish colonial revival theme which matches the
existing dwelling.
The Community Development Department finds and determines as follows:
A. The proposed work conforms to the Municipal Code and any applicable design standards in that all
proposed conversion and addition meet zoning code requirements and match the colors, materials,
and architecture of the existing dwelling. Additionally, the work performed shall be required to
adhere to the City of Tustin's Building Code requirements.
B. The proposed work does not adversely affect the character of the District or Designated Cultural
Resources within the District in that the existing one (1) car garage does not meet the current
parking requirements for the property and the replacement garage will provide (3) accessible on-
site parking spaces. Furthermore, the replacement garage will also be consistent with the
architecture of the existing dwelling. Both the replacement garage and the 635 square foot
addition will occur behind the existing dwelling. The colors, materials, and architecture will match
those of the existing structure.
C. The proposed project is not expected to detract or conflict with the external architecture of the
building or existing surrounding uses in that the new construction will match the colors, materials,
and architecture of the existing dwelling and will not be readily visible from the public right-of-way
because it is proposed in the rear yard of the property.
The proposed work is hereby approved, subject to the following conditions:
Prior to the start of any work, the applicant shall obtain a building permit and pay all applicable plan
check and permit fees.
2. Any replacement or repair of any existing features shall match the existing materials, finish, and
colors of the existing exterior structure.
