Element ii Adopted April 25, 2000 INTRODUCTION Sacramento, California’s oldest city, State Capital, and birth place of the Gold Rush, has a rich and exciting history. Historic events shaped the city’s development and are reflected in the City’s physical character, economic viability, and quality of life. The City’s overall preservation objectives are to identify, protect, and encourage preservation of Sacramento’s historic and cultural resources throughout the city. The Preservation Element of the City of Sacramento General Plan establishes the policy framework to guide the City’s achievement of its preservation objectives. The General Plan is a long-range policy guide for the physical, economic, and environmental growth and renewal of the city. Adoption of this optional component of the General Plan demonstrates the City’s long-term commitment to identifying, retaining, and appreciating Sacramento’s historic and cultural resources. Historic resources play a vital role in the city’s neighborhoods, commercial centers, recreational activities, educational programs, and other functions. The eclectic mix of historic and cultural resources in Sacramento is a vibrant reflection of the events and places that shaped the community. Protecting and encouraging the preservation and incorporation of these resources into future developments ensures that the cultural heritage of Sacramento will remain a vital asset to the city. SUMMARY OF THE PLAN PREPARATION PROCESS In 1996, a coalition of neighborhood organizations drafted a letter to the City voicing the need for an improved historic preservation program and then worked with City staff members to prepare a “Concept Paper to Strengthen the City’s Preservation Program.” Encouraged by the City Council’s endorsement of the concept paper and by the approval of Sacramento’s application for Certified Local Government (CLG) status for its preservation program, the City Manager convened a Select Committee on Historic Preservation (Select Committee) to provide specific recommendations for strengthening the City’s preservation program. The recommendations of the Select Committee are contained in the “Report of the City of Sacramento Select Committee on Historic Preservation,” published in July 1997. This report is available for review at the City Preservation Office. The Select Committee identified several areas of the current program that needed attention, including: revising the Preservation Ordinance, surveying historic resources citywide, developing incentives package, improving consistency with state and federal preservation procedures and standards, and preparing a Preservation Element of the General Plan. The Preservation Element incorporates the vision resulting from the Select Committee’s work, integrates a broad range of existing planning goals and policies, and presents updated preservation goals, objectives, and programs for a comprehensive, citywide preservation program. Following City of Sacramento Preservation Element Sec. 10-1 Adopted April 25, 2000 public workshops and hearings before the Design Review and Preservation Board and Planning Commission, the Preservation Element was adopted by the City Council. The City Preservation Office annually prepares an Implementation Plan for carrying out the goals and policies of the Preservation Element. Preservation objectives are also carried out through ongoing processes, programs, and regulations. The City’s Preservation Ordinance (Chapter 32 of the City Code) in particular establishes the procedures and standards for implementing many aspects of the City’s preservation program.

    RACE, SPACE, AND PLACE: THE RELATION BETWEEN ARCHITECTURAL MODERNISM, POST-MODERNISM, URBAN PLANNING, AND GENTRIFICATION Keith Aoki * [Cite as: 20 Fordham Urb. L.J. 699 (1993)] Introduction Gentrification in United States urban housing markets of the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s continues to be a controversial and complex phenomenon. [FN1] During the past twenty years, gentrification's effects on the core cities of the U.S. have been analyzed and evaluated many times over. [FN2] Descriptions of gentrification have spanned the ideological *700 spectrum, from laudatory embraces of gentrification as the solution to urban decline to denunciatory critiques of gentrification as another symptom of the widening gulf between the haves and the have- nots in America. [FN3] This Article critiques gentrification, adding an additional explanatory element to the ongoing account of the dynamics of American cities in the 1990s. The additional element is the relevance of a major aesthetic realignment in architecture and urban planning from a modernist to a post-modernist ideology in the 1970s and 1980s. This shift involved an aesthetic and economic revaluation of historical elements in older central city buildings, which accelerated the rate of gentrification, displacement, and abandonment. This Article describes how certain shifts in the aesthetic ideology [FN4] of urban planners and architects affected suburban and urban spatial distribution in the United States during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. These ideological shifts arose from deeply embedded American attitudes toward city and rural life that had emerged in American town planning and architectural theory and practice by the mid-nineteenth century. Part I of this Article examines the emergence of an anti-urban Arcadian strand in nineteenth century American town planning rhetoric.

  • 4.9 Cultural and Paleontological Resources
    4.9 CULTURAL AND PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES This section considers and evaluates the potential impacts of the proposed project on cultural and paleontological resources. Cultural resources include historic buildings and structures, historic districts, historic sites, prehistoric and historic archaeological sites, and other prehistoric and historic objects and artifacts. Paleontological resources include fossil remains, as well as fossil localities and formations, which have produced fossil material in other nearby areas. CONCEPTS AND TERMINOLOGY FOR EVALUATION OF CULTURAL RESOURCES The following definitions are common terms used to discuss the regulatory requirements and treatment of cultural resources: Cultural resource is a term used to describe several different types of properties: prehistoric and historical archaeological sites; architectural properties such as buildings, bridges, and infrastructure; and resources of importance to Native Americans. Historic properties is a term defined by the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) as any prehistoric or historic district, site, building, structure, or object included in, or eligible for inclusion in, the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), including artifacts, records, and material remains related to such a property. Historical resource is a CEQA term that includes buildings, sites, structures, objects, or districts, each of which may have historical, prehistoric, architectural, archaeological, cultural, or scientific importance, and is eligible for listing or is listed in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR). Paleontological resource is defined as fossilized remains of vertebrate and invertebrate organisms, fossil tracks and trackways, and plant fossils. A unique paleontological site would include a known area of fossil-bearing rock strata. 4.9.1 EXISTING SETTING PREHISTORY The Central Valley of California has long held the attention of California archaeologists.
