"Historic preservation bylaws and ordinances at the local level increased
during the past five years. There are now 127 municipalities with a
demolition delay bylaw or ordinance, an increase from 108 five years ago.
While most delay periods remain at 6 months, there are now twenty-eight with
a 12 month delay and five with an 18 month delay."
Is there a trailblazing town ready for 24 months? J
Chris.

Subject: [MassHistPres] Demolition delay
Tewksbury is in the process of preparing a town meeting article which would
extend its current
Demo Delay By-Law from its current very short 90 day restriction to
something longer. Does
anyone have any thoughts as to period which provides maximum return on
building saved/adapted
etc. Any other insight on how to leverage by law to save buildings as
opposed to just putting off the
inevitable would also be appreciated. I appreciate the preservation
communities response to this
inquiry along with some helpful replies on priors.
Regards,
Jay Gaffney
