Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.
The City Council finds as follows with regard to File No. PLN2014-93: .
Environmental Finding
1. The project qualifies as a Categorically Exempt project per Section 15331, Class 31 of the
California Environment Quality Act (CEQA), pertaining to projects involving the maintenance,
rehabilitation, restoration, preservation, or reconstruction of historical resources, provided
that the activity meets published federal standards for the treatment of historic properties.
Evidentiary Findings
1. The properties located at 266 W. Campbell Avenue, 616 EI Patio Drive, and 35 - 45
S. First Street are recommended for the Historic Resource Inventory designation as
they are locally important and convey Campbell's image as a distinct community within
Santa Clara County.
2. Historic resources have intrinsic value and are an important part of modern life and
should be identified for the community's knowledge and benefit.
3. Of the City's 16,103 housing units, less than 1.5% have been designated as historic
resources or currently under consideration for designation.
4. Each historic building and structure represents an investment, and listing on the Historic
Resource Inventory may encourage maintenance and rehabilitation of older buildings
and neighborhoods by allowing property owners to utilize tax incentives and the State
Historic Building Code for repair and rehabilitation which can mean savings in energy,
time, money, and raw materials.
5. Managing information about historical resources and making informed decisions
regarding historic resources is a critical step in the planning process.
