Old Town Cordelia

Historic Property Survey Report / Historic Resources Inventory and Evaluation / Finding of Effect

JRP prepared a Historic Resources Inventory and Evaluation Report, Historic Property Survey Report and Finding of Effect for the Old Town Cordelia Improvement Project.  The proposed project consists of constructing a path for pedestrian and bicycle use, road and drainage facilities, safety improvements, and enhancements along Cordelia Road from Pittman Road to Lopes Road as part of a Transportation for Livable Community project. Cordelia developed in the late nineteenth century as a railroad shipping point for the agricultural goods of Green Valley to the north.  Caltrans identified the village as eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places as a historic district in 1989.  The district consisted of residential , commercial and light industrial buildings.  JRP identified the character defining features of the historic district and the individual buildings within the project Area of Potential Effects.  The Finding of Effect was prepared for the district, and the individual residences, commercial and light industrial buildings adjoining the proposed project.

Prepared for Solano County for Caltrans, 2006-2008.
