[MassHistPres] conservator

Joshua Craine of Daedalus, Ins will be visiting Abington  Ma to assess the 
Arch and Bridge located on Island Grove Park which  was placed on the 
National Register of Historic Places in 2002. The arch is  in disrepair as is the 
bridge and may need extensive structural restoration. The  Abington 
Historical Commission was not made notice that this assessment was to  be conducted 
until today..Our concern is that Mr. Craine qualifications may not  meet 
prodigal for conducting a structural assessment required for a national  site 
and preservation. Hence the AHC pose questions " has any  community used the 
consultant services of the Daedalus, Inc and is this company  approved by 
the MHC? There is a strong grass root movement in the private sector  of 
Abington to have the Arch restored by 2012 for the Towns 300  Birthday. The AHC 
fears such a rush..
 
Thanks for any guidance
 
Robyn B Fernald
Chair of the Abington Historical  Commission
