I, Sydney Stephenson, declare:
1. I am an Assistant Planner in the City of Berkeley Planning and Development
Department. My job responsibilities include research, data collection, drafting of maps or
graphic illustrations for presentations, and preparation of staff reports. I am also responsible for
evaluating possible Zoning Ordinance changes, drafting new Land Use Ordinances, and
participating in all facets of Planning Commission meetings, presentations, minutes, and
responding to Commission inquires.
2. I created the maps attached to this declaration, using ArcGIS (ArcMap Version
10.2.2. I first uploaded the World Imagery (provided by the ArcGIS program) as a basemap. I
then used the City of Berkeley GIS data (from the ArcGIS cobsdev2 Server and sde_prod

Database) to upload the Historic Resources shapefile, which is regularly maintained by the City
of Berkeley GIS Coordinator.
3. I created a Definition Query to extract only the Civic Center Historic District
polygon from the shapefile. This resulted in creating the first map (Exhibit A) with only the City
of Berkeley Civic Center Historic District Overlay (Ord. 7370-NS § 1 (part), 2014).
3. Next, I found the PDF of the Sketch Map of Berkeley Historic Civic Center
District (National Historic Register, 1998) and converted it into an image. I uploaded the image
to the map with the Civic Center Historic District polygon. I georeferenced the image using 11
control points, overlaying the National Historic Register Sketch Map (1998) with the Civic
Center Historic District polygon (2014). Then, I saved these maps as a PDF, attached as Exhibit
B.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed in
Berkeley, California on December 2, 2016.
