[MassHistPres] Signs on Buildings

[Dcolebslade at aol.com]

The local Community Preservation Committee (CPC) is requiring that projects  
for buildings that receive funds from the CPC place pre-designed signs on the  
building visible from a public way to acknowledge the source of the funds.   
Many of these are historical buildings.
 
Two questions:
1.  Do any historical commissions around Massachusetts have any input  into 
the design or placement of these signs?
 
2.  If a sign is going to be placed in a historic district, who has  the last 
word?  CPC or the local historical commission?  CPC has  informed applicants 
that a sign of some sort will be required.
 
Thank you.
