    AGENDA ITEM L1 Community Development STAFF REPORT City Council Meeting Date: 4/17/2018 Staff Report Number: 18-073-CC Informational Item: Update on 241 El Camino Real (The Oasis) and 201- 211 El Camino Real/610 Cambridge Ave. Recommendation This is an informational item and does not require City Council action. Policy Issues Mayor Pro Tem Ray Mueller has asked for a status update on the subject property, where The Oasis restaurant and lounge ceased operations as of March 7, 2018. Specifically inquiring if the existing building is eligible for historic designation for the National Register of Historic Places and the California Register of Historical Resources. Additional information has been requested for a proposed mixed-use development at an adjacent property located at 201-211 El Camino Real/610 Cambridge Ave. Background The subject building has been evaluated as being eligible for both the federal and California Historic Registers. A 1990 historic resources inventory and a 2013 Historic Resource Evaluation (HRE) confirmed the building’s historic eligibility. As a result, any exterior alterations/additions would need to be conducted in compliance with the secretary of the interior’s standards for rehabilitation, as evaluated by a qualified architectural historian. Demolition of the building would likely not be permitted without an environmental impact report (EIR) and associated statement of overriding considerations. In 2001, the Planning Commission granted a use permit and architectural control for new wireless equipment, specifically new cell antennas within an enclosure were added to the building’s roof. In 2012- 2013, Sprint applied for a use permit revision to replace the previously-installed antennas with new enclosed roof-mounted antennas.
