The search results were provided on November 11, 2020, to identify all previous cultural resources work and previously recorded cultural resources within a 0.5-mile radius of the project site (Attachment A). The CHRIS search included a review of the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), the California Points of Historical Interest list, the California Historical Landmarks list, the Archaeological Determinations of Eligibility list, and the California State Historic Resources Inventory list. The records search also included a review of all available historic United States Geological Survey {USGS) 7.5-, 15-, and 30-minute quadrangle maps. Previous Studies The SCIC records search identified 24 cultural resources studies that were conducted within a 0.5-mile radius of the project site, one of which {SD-04111) is an overview mapped including the project site but did not include pedestrian survey of it (see below after Table 1). Report SD-09361 similarly included the project site within its "study area" along the Interstate S corridor, but the current project site was not within its "research [survey)" area. Report SD-00535 is mapped at SCIC as including the project site; however, review of the report indicates survey only occurred along the beach west of developed streets to the high tide line and was not to modern standards. The previous studies conducted within 0.5 mile are presented in Table 1 below. Table t.

This environmental impact report for parks within the city of Carlsbad includes a cultural resources section but did not include pedestrian survey within or adjacent to the current project site. Previously Recorded Resources The SCIC records search identified five cultural resources previously recorded within a 0.5¥mile radius of the project site (Table 2). One additional historic address (with no assigned primary number) was also recorded within 0.5 mile of the project site (Table 2). None of these six resources is within or adjacent to the project site. Table 2.

Anza also consulted with historians who manage the Genealogy and Carlsbad History Collection at the Georgina Cole Library in Carlsbad, california. On December 9, 2020, Carlsbad Library historians provided a dated list of subdivision tracts, subdivision maps, historic photographs, and news articles from the mid-1920s. The building at 4008 Garfield Street is observable on the 1938 hlstoric aerial photograph on file at historicaerials.com and the 1948 San Luis Rey, California (1955 edition) U.S.G.S. 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle map. The City of Carlsbad Building Permit Division does not maintain permits on file for construction or alterations prior to the City's incorporation in 1952. The only permit on file at the Building Permit Division for the subject property regarded a conversion from overhead to underground electrical service in 1994. Parcel records indicate the building was altered in 1942, but no information regarding the alteration is on file. The project site occupies Block K Lot 1 of the Palisades Subdivision. The Palisades Subdivision was platted in November 1922 and filed on February 5, 1923 (Hammond 1975). Newspaper articles from the 1920s describe other lot purchases in the Palisades and construction of noteworthy architectural designs but do not mention the subject property (e.g., Carlsbad Champion 1926a & b). Historic Resources Inventory In 1990, Roth and Associates completed a survey of buildings with potential historic significance in Carlsbad. This survey was adopted by City Council as the Historic Resources Inventory (HRI) 1n 1991. In 1993, City Council "deleted" the Inventory and stipulated inclusion on any historic listing be voluntary {City Council Resolution 93M151). The Historic Resources Inventory has been retained in the library's Carlsbad History Collection. Despite its age, the residence at 4008 Garfield Street was not included in the 1990 Carlsbad HRL The adjacent residence at 4016 Garfield Street, since destroyed and replaced with a newer building, was 6 .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. - - - ••· -.. - • - • - • - •· - - - -.. - 4008 Garfield Project Cultural Resources Study included. It is inferred that Roth and Associated did not consider 4008 Garfield Street worthy of significance evaluation or inclusion in the HRI. Native American Scoping Anza contacted the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) to request a review of the Sacred Lands File (SLF) on November 2, 2020. The NAHC responded via email on December 8, 2020, stating that a search of the SLF was completed for the project site ~with positive results" and a recommendation to contact the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians for additional information (Attachment B). In anticipation of an NAHC response and based on recent experience with nearby projects, Anza sent letters on November 3, 2020, to 23 tribal groups or individuals asking if they have knowledge of cultural resources within or near the project site . Kevin Hunt of Anza Resource Consultants texted cami Mojado of the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians (SLRBMI) on November 6, 2020, and subsequent emails regarding the proposed project and to coordinate a SLRBMI Native American monitor to participate in the survey. Ms. Mojado presented no additional information regarding the positive SLF results but coordinated a Native American monitor for the survey. The Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians responded via email on November 10, 2020 stating that the project site has significance or ties to the Kumeyaay Nation and recommends notifying the San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians. The Rincon Band of Luiseiio Indians responded via letter attached to an email on November 23, 2020, stating that the Rincon Band recommends an archaeological records search and intensive survey of the project site and requesting a Rincon monitor accompany the survey. Anza responded via email on November 24, 2020, that Anza is already coordinating with the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians to provide Native American monitor services for the survey, but that Anza will consider the Rincon Band for future projects in the area. As of December 10, 2020, no additional responses have been received. The results of Native American scoping are presented in Appendix B. Anza understands that the City of car!sbad is required to offer government-to-government consultation to any Native American tribes who requested notification regarding projects in accordance with Assembly Bill 52 of 2014 (AB 52). Anza assumes that the City will address any additional Native American concerns regarding the project based on the results of AB 52 consultation. Pedestrian Survey On December 8, 2020, Anza Principal and Senior Cultural Resources Specialist Kevin Hunt conducted a pedestrian survey of the project site accompanied by Jessica Alexander, SLRBMI Native American monitor. The pedestrian survey consisted of walking generally west to east trending transects, spaced no more than five meters apart, in areas of the project site with exposed ground surface. These areas included the front yard, side yard, and backyard between the duplex and the garage.

The attached room appears to be a considerably later expedient addition with tittle or no thought to design. 4008 Garfield Street was constructed in a Vernacular style, lacking the balanced form of the Bungalow and Craftsman styles that were also popular during its period of construction. Parcel records indicate it was altered in 1942, but records do not provide details on the alteration. It is unknown if the building was originally constructed as a duplex or if it was a single-family residence modified at a later date. Although the Palisades and immediate surrounding subdivisions still have some homes from the 1920s through the 1950s, the buildings adjacent to and near the subject property are large, modern, and generally boxy single-and multi-family residences. Historic Context The late 1910s through the 1920s were a period of rapid growth and infrastructure development for the town of Carlsbad (Gutierrez 2002:25). As noted by Hammond (1975), Carlsbad generally correlated with nearby Oceanside for boom periods, but started and finished the cycles slightly after Oceanside. The Palisades Subdivision was platted in 1922 and filed in 1923. ln 1922 the first Avocado Day Festival was introduced and by 1928 Carlsbad was boosted as the "Home of the Avocado (Gutierrez 2002)." The Carlsbad Union Church was constructed in 1924 and the Carlsbad Theater in 1927, demonstrating the sense of community growing within the swelling number of residents in the newly platted tracts. Agriculture was still the dominant industry with many plots farmed between the Palisades tract and the recently established Barrios Carlos, a predominantly Mexican immigrant neighborhood many of whose residents worked in the local fields and groves . Carlsbad's $7S,000 sanitary sewer system began operation in May 1930, shortly before the grand opening of the half million-dollar California-Carlsbad Mineral Springs Hotel at the famed alkaline springs site (Harmon 1961). The establishment of this well-known resort cemented Carlsbad's reputation as a vacation destination and health locale, helping it weather the Great Depression . As avocado production moved to more lucrative inland locations, Carlsbad remained well known for vegetable, legume, and ornamental bulb production. It was estimated that in 1949, 90 percent of the nation's freesia bulbs came from Carlsbad commercial growers also raised bird of paradise, calla lilies, geraniums, gladioli, pelargoniums, poinsettias, and ranunculi, as well as numerous other varieties (Harmon 1961) . The 19S0s were a another period of major growth for Carlsbad (c.f., Harmon 1961). Prior to world War II, Carlsbad was known for its mineral water but primarily considered an agricultural region producing and shipping winter vegetables, flowers, and bulbs (Federal Writers' Project 1954:406). With its fabled climate, water, and convenient rail stop, Carlsbad experienced significant post-war residential development. The City of Carlsbad was incorporated in 1952, partially to avoid annexation by the neighboring city of Oceanside. This growth was reflected by the completion of Carlsbad High School in 1958 and the Palomar Airport in 1959. The airport was later renamed the McClellan-Palomar Airport ama 11 4008 Garfield Project Cultural Resources Study after Gerald C. McClellan, a former president of the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce and longtime advocate for the North County region. The 1960s and 1970s saw continued expansion for the city, primarily through annexations such as la Costa and the Leo Carrillo Ranch. Later decades brought continued expansion, redevelopment, and establishment of a vision for the City moving forward (Dyett & Bhatia and Dudek 2010). Evaluation of Built Environment Resources CEQA requires a lead agency determine whether a project may have a significant effect on historical resources (Public Resources Code [PRC], Section 21084.1). A historical resource is a resource listed in, or determined to be eligible for listing, in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), a resource included in a local register of historical resources or any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record, or manuscript that a lead agency determines to be historically significant {State CEQA Guidelines, Section 15064.5(a][l-3]). "A resource shall be considered historically significant if it meets any of the following criteria: 1. Is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of California's history and cultural heritage; 2. Is associated with the lives of persons important in our past; 3. Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the work of an important creative individual, or possesses high artistic values; or 4. Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history." No resource listed on the or recommended eligible for the CRHR was identified within 0.5 mile in the CHRIS records search. One residential duplex greater than 45 years old was identified in the project site during the background research and survey and is evaluated for CRHR eligibility below. 4008 Garfield Street Duplex Residence This building was constructed between ca.1923-1938 and had major but unknown alterations in 1942. The duplex residence is typical of simple and utilitarian housing of its time and reflects Carlsbad's growth during the 1920s but has no direct association with important events in California history (does not meet CRHR Criterion 1). Ownership records revealed no persons important in California's past (does not meet Criterion 2). The Vernacular duplex residence possesses a modest at best set of design elements and does not embody a distinctive style of construction nor does it represent the work of a master, in contrast with other houses In the neighborhood from the same period (does not meet Criterion 3). The duplex residence does not possess significant data potential (does not meet CRHR Criterion 4). Anza Resource Consultants recommend that 4008 Garfield Street is not eligible for listing in the CRHR, nor is it a contributor to a larger California Register-eligible historic district. 12 .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. -.. .. .. ..

Paleontological Records Search -4008 Garfield (Anza Project No, 20-0018) Dear Mr. Hunt: This letter presents the results of a paleonto!ogica! records search conducted for the 4008 Garfield project (Project), located in the northwestern portion of the City of Carlsbad, San Diego County, California. The Project slte is located at 4008 Garfield Street, and ls bordered to the southwest by Garfield Street, to the northwest by Chinquapin Avenue, and on all other sides by existing residential development Methods A review of published geological maps covering the Project site and surrounding area was conducted to determine the specific geologic units underlying the Project site. Each geologic unit was subsequently assigned a pa!eonto!ogical resource sensitivity {Demere and Walsh, 1993). In addition, a search of the paleontologica! collection records housed at the San Diego Natural History Museum (SDNHM) was conducted In order to determine if any documented fossil collection localities occur at the Project site or within the immediate surroundlng area. Results Published geological reports (e.g., Kennedy and Tan, 2007) covering the Project area indicate that the proposed Project has the potential to impact late Pleistocene-age old paralic deposits, Units 6-7 (broadly equivalent to the Bay Point Formation of Kennedy, 1975). This geologic unit and its paleontological sensitivity are summarized below. The SDNHM has six recorded fossil localities that lie within one mlle of the Project site; however, these localities are from Holocene-age estuarine deposits and the late Oligocene-age deposits of the undifferentiated Sespe & Vaqueros formation, which are not anticipated to be impacted by Project construction. Old paralic deposits (Bay Point Formation) -Old para lie deposits, Units 6-7 underlie the entire ProJect site at the surface, as mapped by Kennedy and Tan (2007), and :are broadly equivalent to the nearshorc marine deposits of the Pleistocene-age (approximately 750,000 to 10,000 years old) Bay Point Formation of Kennedy (1975). The SDNHM does not have any fossil collection localities from the Bay Point Formation within a one-mile radius of the Project site. The Bay Point Formation has been ass1·gned a high paleonto!ogical sensitivity for the diverse and well-preserved fossils of marine invertebrates and marine vertebrates, and occasional tene;tria! vertebrates, that have been recovered from these deposits elsewhere in western San Diego County. thenat P.O.
