Page 16 of 18
Text Amendment -Chapter 21.33 (Historic Preservation) Exhibit A-1
A. Economic Incentives
1. Mills Act. To qualify for the Mills Act program, a structure must be designated as
a historic resource on the city's historic resource inventory. Priority will be given
to applications that substantially reduce the threat to the historic resource of
demolition, deterioration, abandonment, and/or general neglect and that result in
the greatest value of improvements to the historic resource thereby resulting in
the greatest benefit to the public. One hundred percent (100%) of the estimated
tax savings shall be used to finance the improvements and property
maintenance of the historic resource.
2. Permit Fee Waivers. An individual may file a request for City Council
consideration to grant a full or partial waiver of application processing fee(s)
required under this chapter whenever the City Council finds that such waiver
would advance the purposes of the Historic Preservation Ordinance and the
General Plan.
B. Other Incentives
1. Recognition. The city may issue awards and commendations (e.g., plaques)
that recognize the outstanding contributions of individuals and organizations that
further the city's -preservation efforts, foster civic pride, and increase public
awareness of the architectural and cultural heritage of the community.
2. Zoning Exception. The purpose of a zoning exception is intended to provide a
degree of flexibility from the Zoning Ordinance as necessary to minimize impact
to the historic character of a historic resource. The types of zoning exceptions
that may be considered include relief from the required setbacks, residential
parking, sign area, allowed uses, or permit requirements. The decision making
body shall approve the zoning exception if the following findings have been
made:
a. The zoning exception will facilitate development and use of a historic
resource in a manner that is more consistent with its historic character than
would be possible under strict compliance with the Zoning Ordinance;
b. The zoning exception will not adversely impact property or public rights-of-
way in the surrounding neighborhood or within a historic district;
c. The zoning exception will not negatively impact the integrity or historic
characteristics of the historic resource;
d. The zoning exception is the minimum departure from the requirements of the
Zoning Ordinance; and
e. The zoning exception is in conformance with the General Plan, adopted area
plan, and applicable design guidelines ~ .

21.33.160 -Conformance requirement
Issuance of a permit in conformance with this chapter does not relieve anyone from
compliance with the requirements of other standards and requirements of this Zoning
Ordinance or those of the building and fire codes.
21.33. 170 - Severability
If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase or part of this chapter
or any part thereof is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the final
decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity
of the remaining portions of this chapter or any part thereof. The City Council declares
that it would have adopted this chapter and each section, subsection, subdivision,
sentence, clause, phrase or part thereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more
sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, phrases or parts be declared
invalid or unconstitutional.

For many years potential
and current residents of
the City of Campbell have
been unclear what it means to
have a property listed on the
City’s Historic Resource Inven-
tory. The Historic Preservation
Board in concert with the
City of Campbell have created
this document to help explain
the key features of the Historic
Resource Inventory and why it
is great to own and maintain a
historic home in Campbell.
The Historic Resource Inventory
The City of Campbell’s Historic
Resource Inventory includes designated
historic properties that are of important
historical value to the City. The City
also maintains a list of properties that
are eligible for designation.
How is a property placed on the Historic Resource Inventory?
Designation of historic resource inventory properties, landmarks and historic
districts may be initiated by the City Council, Civic Improvement Commission,
Planning Commission, Community Development Director, or upon application
of the property owner. Once the property has been nominated the Historic Pres-
ervation Board can approve or deny this nomination. If approved, the Historic
Preservation Board forwards this nomination to the Planning Commission
and the City Council for approval. Public hearings are held at each step to hear
recommendations and comments. Once a property is designated a letter is sent
to the property owner and the county recorders office.
What does it means for a property to be designated on the city’s Historic Resource Inventory?
Having a property designated on the Historic Resource Inventory means it is
unique and deserving of recognition and protection for the benefit of the owner
and the community. The property is considered important in helping Campbell
maintain its heritage. In addition, properties designated on the Inventory can
apply for reduced property taxes through the Mills Acts contracts, take advan-
tage of the State Historic Building Code, and make use of the Adaptive Reuse
exceptions for building standards. Federal tax credits are also available for
rehabilitation of commercial properties.
Welcome to
Historic Campbell
Would having a property designated on the city’s Historic Resource Inven-tory affect the value of the home?
There is no impact on resale values. The value
of the house is based on the current valuation
of each individual home. Having a property
designated on the Historic Resource Inventory
does not lower its value. In fact, if a home-
owner maintains their historic home it could be
more valuable than other non-historic homes.
