However, the ordinance has several provisions for evaluation that
differ from the federal and state criteria. This section will address the
federal and state criteria together and first, and then will address the
Pacific Grove criteria.
The criteria for listing properties in the National Register of
Historic Places (NRHP) are codified in 36 CFR 60 and expanded upon
in numerous guidelines published by the National Park Service.
Buildings, structures, objects, sites and districts listed in, eligible for
listing in, or appear eligible for listing in the NRHP are considered
historic properties under the regulations for Section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA).
Eligibility for listing buildings, structures, objects, sites, and
districts (i.e., resources) in the NRHP rests on twin factors of historic
signlficance and integrity. A resource must have both significance
and integrity to be considered eligible. Loss of integrity, if sufficiently
great, will overwhelm the historic significance a resource may possess
and render it ineligible. Likewise, a resource can have complete
integrity, but if it lacks significance, it must also be considered
ineligible. Historic significance is judged by applying the NRHP
criteria, identified as Criteria A through D.
The NRHP guidelines state that a historic resource's "quality of
significance in American history, architecture, archaeology,
engineering, and culture" must be determined by meeting at least one
of the four main criterion. Properties may be significant at the local,
state or nallonallevel. The NRHP criteria are:
Criterion A: association with "events that have made significant
contributions to the broad patterns of our history;"
Criterion B: association with "the lives of persons significant in
our past;"
Criterion C: resources "that embody the distinctive
characteristics of a type, period, or method of
construction, or that represent the work of a
master, or that possess high artistic values;"
Criterion D: resources "that have yielded, or may be likely to
yield, information important to history or
pre history."
