[MassHistPres] workshops

[Marcia Starkey]

Hello,

As you know, workshops on a variety of topics are being held across the Commonwealth for local historical commissioners. My experience has been that these are very helpful both with assessing how specific preservation tools fit with needs and community priorities in Greenfield, and as an opportunity to ask (sometimes wierd) questions. 

I also wonder if these workshops should include a system of  recognition or "accreditation" for this municipal training which can result in enhanced local government status, leading to  more weight.   

Conservation Commissions, Planning and Zoning Boards, Building and Health Departments as well as Assessors have standards and training. Why not HCs and LHDCs?
