NON-AGENDIZED ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
None PUBLIC HEARING
1. 360 E. Campbell Avenue (2nd Bank of Campbell): Senior Planner Daniel Fama
presented an application for the façade restoration and seismic retrofit project of the Second Bank of Campbell building which was initially reviewed by the HPB in March, April, and August 2016. Consistent with the direction at that time, the applicant
revised the plans to relocate the entry door to the left side of the building, locate the
accessible ramp inside the building, revise the windows to be single-pane, restore
the brick with a similar material, and retain the horizontal beam across the façade for structural reasons.
Board member Foulkes asked about the canopy and windows which led to a
discussion and request by the HPB to redesign the windows with divided lites to
match the side elevation and to relocate the awning such that it would hide the horizontal beam. Chair Blake and Board member Moore also suggested that the applicant contact Gladding, McBeam as a resource for the restoration work (e.g., the
enameled brick). Vice Chair Anderson suggested that the applicant recreate the
pediment over the entry; however the suggestion failed to get a consensus from the
HPB. Board member Foulkes made a motion to adopt the resolution recommending that
the Planning Commission approve the project with two recommended conditions: 1)
replace the windows with divide lites to match the historic windows on the side
elevation; and 2: locate the awning over the horizontal beam. Board Member Walter seconded. Motion Passed 5-0
This project will come back to the HPB prior to building permit issuance for review of
the construction drawings and materials
NEW BUSINESS
None
OLD BUSINESS
1. Brochure: Board member Walter presented the most recent version of the brochure
and indicated that the photos are still a work in progress. Board member Moore indicated that she will revise the layout to put more emphasis on the photos.
2. Historic Preservation Mobile application: Senior Planner Cindy McCormick indicated
that the MyTours Company was working on the Apple app due to a compatibility
issue with the Apple watch.

3. Historic Preservation Ordinance (Chapter 21.33): Senior Planner Cindy McCormick and Community Development Director Paul Kermoyan provided an overview of City Council’s feedback on the Ordinance update. In general, the Council rejected any
major procedural changes or changes that would provide more authority to the HPB.
The Council’s direction was to address inconsistencies and add clarification where
necessary. Board Member Moore acknowledged that the Council was supportive of surveying
additional properties for potential designation. Vice Chair Anderson suggested an
outreach program to educate the public on the historic preservation Ordinance.
Chair Blake suggested that the Board prepare a letter to historic resource homeowners describing the benefits of being on the HRI and the process involved to make changes to a historic resource.
FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS (no discussion)
1. Chair Blake requested that two items be added to a future agenda:
1) Surveys
2) Neglected property on Central Avenue (previously requested by Vice Chair Anderson).
