Integrity is defined as the "the ability of a property to convey its significance." Historic Integrity is often cited as the most confusing aspect in the evaluation of
historic resources and at times becomes the make-or-break factor in their evaluation. But what constitutes integrity varies not only with the historic context, but also with the criteria for evaluation associated with the resource.

After exploring the terms and definitions of integrity used in historic resource evaluations, this workshop will dissect the concept of historic resource integrity into its
component parts, examining local, state and national thresholds, how the condition of a resource factors into
assessments, and individual vs. district integrity.

Case studies will illustrate how historic integrity relates to CEQA and case law, and how unique structures have lost, or gained integrity in the short span of a few years because of context changes. All presenters will be available for a panel Q & A.

Finally, the day will close with a special presentation on the integrity of archeological resources and an optional walking tour to Ventura's downtown archeological dig.

Speakers:

• Ken Bernstein, City of Los Angeles
• Susan Brandt-Hawley, Esq., Brandt-Hawley Law Group
• Jay Correia, California Office of Historic Preservation
• John Foster, Greenwood and Associates

"The Standards" as they are called, are the most important guidelines for protecting historic resources. This workshop will provide an overall and in-depth examination of the Standards and their interpretation. Lectures and case studies will explore the topics of reversibility, contextual infill, and compatible alterations and additions, with time for Q & A with all of the speakers.

The workshop will conclude with an examination of Standards and their relationship to Historic Tax Credit Projects, and a field-trip to the Elks Lodge, Ventura's most recent tax credit project (still being processed). By the workshop date this tax credit should be approved or denied and you'll be among the first to see what worked or what didn't!
