The Historic  District and Historic Commission Committee of  Preservation 
Massachusetts has  developed a training module in  collaboration with the 
Massachusetts Historical  Commission entitled  Preservation 201: MHC Historic 
Property 
Forms .  


The workshop is  intended to inform attendees about how to complete  MHC 
Historic Property  Inventory Forms. Local historical commission and  historic 
district members,  planners, historians, members of municipal  and nonprofit 
organizations, and the  interested public from  surrounding communities are 
encouraged 
to attend. The  workshop is FREE  and open to all. 


The community-wide  survey is a preservation planning and research  tool. 
Completing a comprehensive  inventory represents a town’s  historical 
development 
by being chronologically  and geographically  comprehensive, and reflecting a 
full range of historic  resource types  within a community. Preservation 201 
aims 
to meet those goals and   include topics such as organizing a survey project 
and identifying local  survey  priorities, developing historic contexts, use 
of 
architectural  terms in drafting  property descriptions, and completing 
historic  property inventory forms, with a  focus on Form B-Building.
