Small Firm Forum: From Past to Present – The importance of Historic Resource Evaluations (1.5 LU)
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires public agencies to analyze a proposed project’s impact to any known or potential historical resources. Before the impact can be analyzed, the agencies must first determine whether the property qualifies as a historical resource under CEQA. In Berkeley, a Historic Resource Evaluation (HRE) provides the documentation for this determination. Berkeley HRE’s are typically required before the demolition of or substantial change to buildings over 40 years old. This presentation will discuss what a Berkeley HRE entails, their preparation requirements (including author qualifications), and their potential impact for a project.
