If the HPC recommends that the property should be designated as a Historic Landmark, the property owner intends to then file a Mills Act application. Once the application is complete, the Mills Act application will be reviewed by the HPC who will make a recommendation to the City Council. The Landmark designation request and the Mills Act application will both be forwarded to the City Council for final action. The Council will first need to determine whether or not to designate the property as a Historic Landmark. If the landmark status is approved, the Council will then make a determination regarding the Mills Act application (as the property is required to have landmark status in order to be considered under the Mills Act program). This home is a prime example of Mid-century Modernism era, and it was designed by the well-known architect Claude Oakland. This Eichler home was developed in 1964 by Joseph Eichler, one of the most progressive and innovative developers in California. The property has been maintained very well to retain its key architectural characteristics including certain rare features. This home satisfies the following criteria: 7 Page 2 of 2 (a) It exemplifies or reflects special elements of the cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic, engineering or architectural history of the City, the County, the State or the nation; or (c) It embodies distinctive characteristics of a style, type, period or method of construction, or is a valuable example of the use of indigenous materials; or (d) It is representative of the notable design or craft of a builder, designer, or architect; or Furthermore, the previous owner of this home is an immigrant scientist and inventor who was part of the Apollo moon landing project, which was a huge historical milestone at a national level and also at a global level. Therefore, we believe this home also meets the following criteria: (b) It is identified with persons or events significant in local, county, state or national history; or Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that: • The HPC adopt the draft resolution (Attachment 1) to add the home to the Heritage Resource Inventory. • The HPC finds that the structure retains a substantial degree of architectural and structural integrity with respect to the original design, and • Recommends that the City Council designate the subject property as a historic landmark and enter into a Mills Act Contract.

Gonen Signature Date Jul 20, 2021 13 Executive Summary We propose that 19174 De Havilland Dr. is recognized as a historic landmark due to its architectural features and historical associations. This home is a prime example of Mid-century Modernism era, and it was designed by the well- known architect Claude Oakland. This Eichler home was developed in 1964 by Joseph Eichler, one of the most progressive and innovative developers in California. The property has been maintained very well to retain its key architectural characteristics including certain rare features. Consequently, we believe this home satisfies the following criterias: (a)It exemplifies or reflects special elements of the cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic, engineering or architectural history of the City, the County, the State or the nation; or (c)It embodies distinctive characteristics of a style, type, period or method of construction, or is a valuable example of the use of indigenous materials; or (d)It is representative of the notable design or craft of a builder, designer, or architect; or Furthermore, the previous owner of this home is an immigrant scientist and inventor who was part of the Apollo moon landing project, which was a huge historical milestone at a national level and also at a global level. Therefore, we belive this home also meets the following criteria: (b)It is identified with persons or events significant in local, county, state or national history; or The rest of this document describes each qualification in detail with supporting documentation/material in attachment. We request Heritage Preservation Commision to review our proposal and decide based on the information presented here. Property Information This home was built in 1964 by Joseph Eichler as part of “Eichler Homes of Saratoga” tract consisting of 35 homes along De Havilland Drive, Shubert Drive and three culdesacs as shown in development plans in Appendix A. This development is unique and only one of its kind in Saratoga. There are other Eichler developments in Palo Alto, Sunnyvale, and a few other locations in the Bay Area, however Saratoga division is generally considered as “best Eichler neighborhood”. Being one of Joseph Eichler’s later developments, these homes are mostly large upscale four-bedroom floor plans on approximately quarter acre lots. The larger, more spacious lot sizes are definitely one of the distinguishing characteristics of these Saratoga Eichlers. Also, a handful of these homes, including this home, enjoy an amazing creekside location. This Eichler tract was designed by Claude Oakland, one of the leading mid-century design architects. Oakland originally worked under Anshen & Allen, the primary architects for Eichler’s earlier houses, before breaking out on his own. While at Anshen & Allen, Oakland was the chief 14 designer for all Eichler structures. While managing his own firm, he worked with Eichler on numerous developments in the 1960s in California. He redesigned the homes with simpler, more organized, but more pleasing schemes. One of the innovations included the use of numerous roof beams, flowing in one direction creating a more impressive and impactful design. This home is one of the most popular “atrium” models, specifically model SAJ-1744 as shown in Appendix B. This model features an open atirum at the center, and the floor plan is built around it using floor to ceiling glass panels to bring in natural light from the atrium. As seen in Picture 1 and 2, street facing exterior of the house has a spartan simple look and feel. This uncluttered, clean front facade was a common theme in Eichler houses. The house features a low slope roof over living & dining areas and a flat roof over bedroom areas. The design exhibits straight geometric lines with its post and beam structure. Beams go through the entire length of the house, and they are supported on posts with varying heights anywhere between 8ft and 12ft. Two separate garage doors slide left and right on rollers. As one enters the front door, she or he would enter the atrium as seen in Picture 6 and 7. The interior is visible from the atrium thanks to floor to ceiling glass panes and large sliding doors providing access to living room, kitchen/family room, and to one of the bedrooms, all wrapped around the atrium to maximize the natural light. Exterior walls facing the backyard are also made of floor to ceiling glass panels in living room and master bedroom. Refer to picture 8 and 9 for the glass panels facing the backyard. This design provides a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces. For example, the woodstops holding the glass panels in place are intentionally thin and same color as the rest of the ceiling so that the frame of the glass does not interfere with outdoor-indoor transitions. Another key design item is the original ceilings with light gray pickling stain as seen in Picture 10. This treatment lightened the color of the wood, but still maintained grain and the natural look of the wood. Unfortunately, most Eichler houses in the bay area have lost these original ceilings as many homeowners simply painted them white over the years. Previous owner, K.T. Chang, has added a permitted 300 sqft studio to the house back in early 90s, and it was done in a way to blend with the rest of the house. For example, looking at picture 4, the part on the right side of the garage (while facing towards the property) is the addition, but it blends with the rest of the property as it uses the same materials and follow the transition from low slope to flat roof just like the left side of the house. Furthermore, the addition was also done with post and beam structure with beams parallel to the existing beams, and the ceiling was also made of stained wood in order to stay true to the original. If one didn’t have permit history or historical records, it is easy to assume that it is part of the original build. Mid-century Modernism 15 Mid-Century Modern is a term often used to describe the aesthetic of new products, particularly furniture. But using it that way is a misnomer. The term refers to a “golden age” of architecture after World War II. It can be summarized by the phrase “form follows function,” generally lacking ornamentation and solving design problems in minimal and clean, simple modes. Mid-Century Modernism is a style that isn't easily defined. One of the many reasons for this is because the works conceptually overlap other styles of the time. It is often viewed as the American response to European, South American, and other global types of modernism like the International Style or Bauhaus movements. Its post-war timeline was an important factor in the design typology of Mid-Century Modernism as designers were racing to house and modernize American suburbs. This style emphasized creating structures with ample windows and open floor plans, with the intention of opening up interior spaces and bringing the outdoors in. Many Mid- century houses utilized then-groundbreaking post and beam architectural design that eliminated bulky support walls in favor of walls seemingly made of glass. Sliding-glass doors and other expansive panes of glass allowed light to enter rooms from multiple angles. Natural light was extremely important in mid-century modern architecture and so the design of the house brought that mix of nature with indoors. t’s very easy to notice that most of these homes have very regular and rigorous geometric lines. One of the most regular features of them all is the roofs. It’s very common to see flat or low pitch planes, and they instantly became one of the most popular features in mid-century homes, making them truly iconic. Function was as important as form in Mid-century Modern designs, with an emphasis placed on targeting the needs of the average American family. Its simplicity was both practical and aesthetically pleasing for commercial and industrial construction in the post-war economy. In summary, the distinguishing features of this style consist of a classic, understated look, and clean lines with minimal fuss. • Functionality is important, as form follows function • Uncluttered and sleek lines with both organic and geometric forms • Minimal ornamentation • An exploration of different traditional as well as non-traditional materials • The juxtaposition of different, and sometimes contrasting materials Claude Oakland and Joseph Eichler Some think of Oakland as a Johnny-come-lately to the Eichler canon, a guy who worked many years as a draftsman for Anshen and Allen's firm, Eichler's original architectural team, finally taking over the account himself, for his own Claude Oakland & Associates, only after Joe Eichler had the last of several fallings-out with the mercurial Anshen. 16 But that's not how Eichler saw Oakland's role in the development of the Eichler homes. In fact, as chief designer of Eichlers for Anshen and Allen, then on his own after 1960, Oakland almost certainly designed more Eichler homes than any other architect, perhaps 5,000 of the 11,000 total. Oakland was also the only Eichler architect who devoted the bulk of his mature career to Eichler. In a 1972 brochure for his Grandmeadow development in Mountain View, billed as "53 custom- quality Eichlers," Eichler asserted that Oakland had been designing—and not just assisting with the design—of Eichlers from 1949, at the onset of the Eichler Homes company. "As they have for the past 23 years, our architect Claude Oakland & Associates, AIA, have again shown their award-winning artistry in designing houses especially adapted to this area. That's one of the reasons why Eichlers are the highest rated and most wanted homes in America," the brochure stated, misstating how long the firm had been around, but not how long Oakland had been working on behalf of Eichler. Moreover, Oakland's designs remain among the most popular of all Eichler models. As Eichler continued his work over the years, he built around 11,000 homes, most of which are located in the Bay Area of California. These homes created communities—suburbs, as we know them—where all were (and still are) welcome. His goal was to create affordable tract homes with a characteristic modernist flair that gave residents the opportunity to live the true California lifestyle. To do this, he used architects to design his tract homes (not just his more expensive custom homes). He was one of the first developers to do this. He also left behind a legacy of greater importance. He was a strong advocate of fair housing for all, often going against recommendations and regulations from the Federal Housing Administration that opposed racially integrated neighborhoods. In 1958, Eichler went so far as to resign from the National Association of Home Builders in protest over racial discrimination policies. Ocean Howell, an associate professor of history at the University of Oregon, says that Eichler Homes believed that “the best way to promote [integrated neighboorhoods] was to quietly demonstrate that integrated housing worked just fine as a business.” Eichler even volunteered his developments to be used as case studies of successful integration. Kuo Tsun Chang K.T. Chang was the previous owner of 19174 De Havilland Dr. and lived here between 1980s and 2018. He was born and raised in China. After serving as a flight dispatcher for the Flying Tigers in India for the "over the Hump" China supply effort during World War II, he immigrated to the United States, where he earned an MS degree in Structural Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, an MS degree in Aeronautical Engineering at the University of Washington, and a PhD in Engineering Mechanics from Stanford University. 17 After a decades-long career with the Garrett AiResearch Corporation in Los Angeles, Kyoto, and Beijing, he retired and settled in Manhattan Beach and then Saratoga, California. During his time at Garrett AiResearch, K.T. Chang was an engineer working on Apollo project that resulted in successful moon landing, which is one of the most important milestones in human history in the last millenia. His invention on stabilization control system for space vehicles at Garrett AiResearch was possibly a piece of the technology in Apollo Lunar Module that landed Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon. Appendix D shows this patent issued by US Patent and Technology Office back in 1969 to Dr. Chang his co-inventor Dr. Yarbee. K.T. Chang’s immigration to US, and his contribution in achieving such an important milestone is perhaps a great example of best and brightest minds immigrating to US and imporving the lives of everyone with their contributions. During his retirement in Saratoga, K.T. Chang also authored a book, “Reflection on the Worthiness of Human Creation” discussing the origins of the world energy crisis brought on by the abuse of fossil fuels. Furthermore, the book proposes a solution to the crisis based on sound engineering principles, involving a sustainable balance between population, renewable energy production, and fossil fuel consumption. 18 Appendix A – Eichlers of Saratoga Site Plans 19 20 Appendix B – Floor Plan Below is OJ-1744 rather than actual SAJ-1744.

MID-CENTURY MODERNISM Mid-Century Modern is a term o1en used to describe the aesthe5c of new products, par5cularly furniture. But using it that way is a misnomer. The term refers to a “golden age” of architecture a1er World War II. It can be summarized by the phrase “form follows func5on,” generally lacking ornamenta5on and solving design problems in minimal and clean, simple modes. This home is a prime example of Mid-century Modernism era, and it was designed by the well- known architect Claude Oakland. This Eichler home was developed in 1964 by Joseph Eichler, one of the most progressive and innovative developers in California. The property has been maintained very well to retain its key architectural characteristics including certain rare features. Consequently, we believe this home satisﬁes the following criterias: (a) It exempliﬁes or reﬂects special elements of the cultural, social, economic, political, aesthetic, engineering or architectural history of the City, the County, the State or the nation; or (c) It embodies distinctive characteristics of a style, type, period or method of construction, or is a valuable example of the use of indigenous materials; or (d) It is representative of the notable design or craft of a builder, designer, or architect; or Furthermore, the previous owner of this home is an immigrant scientist and inventor who was part of the Apollo moon landing project, which was a huge historical milestone at a national level and also at a global level. Therefore, we belive this home also meets the following criteria: (b) It is identiﬁed with persons or events signiﬁcant in local, county, state or national history; or The rest of this document describes each qualiﬁcation in detail with supporting documentation/material in attachment. We request Heritage Preservation Commision to review our proposal and decide based on the information presented here. Property Information This home was built in 1964 by Joseph Eichler as part of “Eichler Homes of Saratoga” tract consisting of 35 homes along De Havilland Drive, Shubert Drive and three culdesacs as shown in development plans in Appendix A. This development is unique and only one of its kind in Saratoga. There are other Eichler developments in Palo Alto, Sunnyvale, and a few other locations in the Bay Area, however Saratoga division is generally considered as “best Eichler neighborhood”. Being one of Joseph Eichler’s later developments, these homes are mostly large upscale four-bedroom ﬂoor plans on approximately quarter acre lots. The larger, more spacious lot sizes are deﬁnitely one of the distinguishing characteristics of these Saratoga Eichlers. Also, 38 State of California ¾ The Resources Agency Primary # __APN 389-05-16_____ DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION HRI # _____________________________________________________ PRIMARY RECORD Trinomial _________________________________________________ Page of Resource Name or #: (Assigned by recorder)_________________________________2 17 a handful of these homes, including this home, enjoy an amazing creekside location. Previous Owner K.T. Chang was the previous owner of 19174 De Havilland Dr. and lived here between 1980s and 2018. He was born and raised in China. After serving as a ﬂight dispatcher for the Flying Tigers in India for the "over the Hump" China supply effort during World War II, he immigrated to the United States, where he earned an MS degree in Structural Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, an MS degree in Aeronautical Engineering at the University of Washington, and a PhD in Engineering Mechanics from Stanford University. After a decades-long career with the Garrett AiResearch Corporation in Los Angeles. During his time at Garrett AiResearch, K.T. Chang was an engineer working on Apollo project. Claude Oakland and Joseph Eichler Some think of Oakland as a Johnny-come-lately to the Eichler canon, a guy who worked many years as a dra1sman for Anshen and Allen's firm, Eichler's original architectural team, finally taking over the account himself, for his own Claude Oakland & Associates, only a1er Joe Eichler had the last of several fallings-out with the mercurial Anshen. But that's not how Eichler saw Oakland's role in the development of the Eichler homes. In fact, as chief designer of Eichlers for Anshen and Allen, then on his own a1er 1960, Oakland almost certainly designed more Eichler homes than any other architect, perhaps 5,000 of the 11,000 total. Oakland was also the only Eichler architect who devoted the bulk of his mature career to Eichler. In a 1972 brochure for his Grandmeadow development in Mountain View, billed as "53 custom-quality Eichlers," Eichler asserted that Oakland had been designing—and not just assis5ng with the design—of Eichlers from 1949, at the onset of the Eichler Homes company. "As they have for the past 23 years, our architect Claude Oakland & Associates, AIA, have again shown their award-winning ar5stry in designing houses especially adapted to this area. That's one of the reasons why Eichlers are the highest rated and most wanted homes in America," the brochure stated, missta5ng how long the firm had been around, but not how long Oakland had been working on behalf of Eichler. Moreover, Oakland's designs remain among the most popular of all Eichler models. As Eichler con5nued his work over the years, he built around 11,000 homes, most of which are located in the Bay Area of California. These homes created communi5es—suburbs, as we know them—where all were (and s5ll are) welcome. His goal was to create affordable tract homes with a characteris5c modernist flair that gave residents the opportunity to live the true California lifestyle. To do this, he used architects to design his tract homes (not just his more expensive custom homes). He was one of the first developers to do this. He also le1 behind a legacy of greater importance. He was a strong advocate of fair housing for all, o1en going against recommenda5ons and regula5ons from the Federal Housing Administra5on that opposed racially integrated neighborhoods. In 1958, Eichler went so far as to resign from the Na5onal Associa5on of Home Builders in protest over racial discrimina5on policies. Ocean Howell, an associate professor of history at the University of Oregon, says that Eichler Homes believed that “the best way to promote [integrated neighboorhoods] was to quietly demonstrate that integrated housing worked just fine as a business.” Eichler even volunteered his developments to be used as case studies of successful integra5on. that resulted in successful moon landing, which is one of the most important milestones in human history in the last millenia. His invention on stabilization control system for space vehicles at Garrett AiResearch was possibly a piece of the technology in Apollo Lunar Module that landed Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon.

Hi all With the hugely successful Community Harvest behind us, we now get to focus solely on the growing and care of the trees and soil in the orchard. We have been really pleased with the amount of growth we are seeing from most of the trees this year. With a varied (ages and vitality) orchard like we have here, every year we will see good growth from trees and have some trees fail. This is the natural cycle of an older orchard. After this big plant out this winter to fill in all the gaps, we will make sure that any trees that do fail will be promptly replanted. Please let me know if anyone would like a tour of the orchard and/or have any questions about our practices. Community involvement- Community Harvest- We met with the city staff a couple weeks ago and traded notes on how the harvest events went this year. Seeing that the harvest was a very popular event, we can foresee the word spreading for next year. We identified what was successful and what could be improved so that next year can be even better. Partnerships- Myself, John Cherbone, and Renee Paquier (West Valley College) met the other week to see how we could get some of the college student involved in the orchard. They have a early childhood education program, and having the 'budding' teachers come out with the kids could be extremely impactful for all involved. Also looking at having some of the college students help with some of the maintenance tasks in the orchard and helping with support for the community harvest days. More to come on this one... Current tasks- Cover Crops- Summer cover crops are growing well in the prune plums. We just did our first mowing in that block. We will mow once a month as they will continue to grow until the fall. At which time we will be doing the cross disking to remove the berms. This disking will kill the summer crops, and then will sow winter cover crops in the later Fall. We are applying needed amendments to the soil (gypsum) and sowing the summer cover crops in the apricots this week. We had waited to sow these until after the community harvest was complete. The process for sowing cover crops currently is that we sow the seed (scatter) throughout the orchard, then run a harrow (which is a series of 'hooks' that we drag using our tractor through the ground shallowly, and bury the seed). We are hoping that we are awarded a multi year contract next year (cross our fingers), which would enable us to purchase a no-till seed drill. This implement, that is pulled by the tractor, would plant the seed in the ground without any ground disturbance. This is the piece of equipment that will allow us to reach our goal of doing minimal or no tillage each year. The implement costs $20k and doesn't make sense to purchase while having a year to year contract... Sap testing (tissue sampling)- we did a leaf sample analysis to see what nutrients the trees were lacking. We were able to identify a number of deficiencies in the trees, with the number one being calcium. We are applying 200lbs per acre this week to the whole orchard to remedy 55 this issue. Some other micro-nutrients were not in balance as well, and will follow up with compost applications this fall/winter. Pruning apricots- we are just about wrapped up with all the small and med sized trees in the orchard. The goal with pruning is to open their canopies so there is less crowding and shading throughout the tree and to reduce end weight on the smaller fruiting limbs. By doing this, there is less need for props during next year's harvest. We reduced the height on all these trees so that most picking can be done from the ground. Next up, we will be pruning all of the 'heritage trees' (these are the trees that require a ladder to harvest, and range from 15-40 years). These trees range in vitality and health. Goals with these trees will be to remove dead limbs and disease, height reduction (though not so much as to not need a ladder) and to open up their centers. Irrigation repair- I think we have done our last repairs before the new system goes in this fall. We experienced a large number of broken heads from all the people in the orchard for the harvest. With the new system, the spray heads will be 18" off the ground so that people can't step on them. Currently the heads are about 4"-6" off the ground. Ground squirrels- these rodents are posing a major issue to the orchard and the landscape. While our gopher X machine is driving them back a little, we have noticed that their populations are exploding. They are mostly coming from the dry creek (in between orchard and city hall). I wonder if a concerted effort may be needed to help try and get them under control? Upcoming task- Sowing summer cover crop in the apricots (this week) Prune plum harvest- will coordinate with Village Harvest and the city staff to see where the fruit should end up (mid Aug) Gopher/Ground Squirrel control (weekly) Finish apricot pruning- rest of month into early Aug. Fall/Winter projects Berm removal- we are currently looking for the right sized tandem disk to purchase for this project. Since this will be a one time use (granted for about 10 days straight), we are looking for a used one. Irrigation- we have just about decided on the correct new spray heads. We will be getting some samples to make sure the new heads will hold up at the site. If anyone has questions about the design and the criteria we have for the heads let me know. Tree planting- We will be finalizing the tree order this week. The trees will be delivered as bare root trees in Dec. The prune plum areas will be filled in with French Improved Prune Plum and the apricot areas will be filled in with a number of different varieties of apricot. The strategy here is that we would like to extend the harvest in both directions (earlier and later). Currently the main variety is 'Blenheim', which is an excellent variety (arguably the best), though it is not a good hanger- meaning once its ripe it needs to get picked asap. This list of varieties takes in to account earlier and later fruiting and a longer hang time. The new varieties are: White Knockout- 15 citation Flavor Delight Aprium- 50 citation Robada- 50 nemaguard 56 Golden Sweet- 50 nemaguard Blenheim -50 nemaguard Tilton- 50 nemaguard Moor park- 50 nemaguard *citation and nemagaurd are the rootstocks.
