[MassHistPres] 2010 Acts c.240 §173 - 'Time' extension for Certificates

[Elaine Banta]

As [new] support staff to the Historic Commission I am looking to hear from
anyone that can direct me regarding 'time limitations' on approved
certificates in MGL c.40 C (specifically for a feature that does not require
a building permit - a fence) and if anyone has run into applying the Act
[above] on such certificates issued during the tolling period.  My knowledge
of time limitations is limited to MGL c.40 A as staff to the Planning Board
and the Board of Appeals and I haven't been able to locate a reference to
timing in c.40 C. To the extent that an approval of a certificate bears no
time limitation, our by-laws are silent on expiry issues as well.  So then
the question becomes can the Act be applied?

 

I appreciate guidance from anyone who has experience with this issue.
