6 The City Council of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
7

and by the City Council on January 5, 1999.
19

23 including the General Plan policy to "Study the potential expansion of the Cultural
Resource Overlay District north of First Street to Irvine Boulevard."
24

Tustin's original City limits, but contains only 74 of the 271 structures listed in the
3 City's Historical Resources Survey.
4
I. That the area of the proposed zone change contains only 54 of the 271 structures
5 listed in the City's Historical Resources Survey. 0nly 43 of the 54 structures are
considered contributing structures. Eleven of the historic structures have "D"
6 ratings because they have been significantly altered.
7
J. That the residential area between First Street and Irvine Boulevard contains a group
g of historic homes that have the potential to be an asset to the existing Cultural
9 Resource District. Consideration for establishing a district in this area may be
appropriate in the future.

~ ~ K. That only a portion of the homes within the proposed Cultural Resource Overlay
District embody distinctive characteristics of style, type, period, or method of

Revival, California Bungalow, Craftsman, Colonial'Revival, Period Revival and
~4 Victorian-Italianateresidences, most of which were built between 1915 and 1928.
~5 L. That the proposed zone change would require that all properties within the zone
~6 change area be subject to the Certificate of Appropriateness process. This process
would create an additional level of regulation which is not justified at this time in
~7 the subject zone change area based on the small number of highly significant
~s historic structures in the proposed zone change area.
~9 II. The City Council hereby denies, without prejudice, Zone Change 98-02, a proposal to
20 amend the official Tustin Zoning Map and apply the Cultural Resource Overlay District to
the properties shown and attached hereto as Exhibit A.
