[MassHistPres] Fwd: Preservation Trusts

[Blever3043]

 John Worden from Arlington forwarded me the link below about their trust program.  If any other communities have such a program in MA or elsewhere, I would appreciate hearing about it.

You might want to check our web site - www.arlingtonpreservation.org.  We have been doing this for many years - initial funding from CDBG

In Newton some of the   members of the Historical Commission have become interested in the possibility   of creating a preservation trust fund.  This fund could be used to lend   funds to property owners to complete restoration work, fund City preservation   projects ect.  I am looking for examples from other communities who have   such programs and have some questions:

Does the municipal Historical   Commission operate the fund or is it through a non-profit?

How was it   created?

And how was it funded, grants, donations, ect.?

I know   these exist in a few communities and am hoping to obtain some basic   information about them.

Thanks,

Brian   Lever
