Dear Preservationists. I ma considering working with a Historical
Commission on which I serve along with a non profit which hasa
preservation mission to develop a homeowners' booklet. It would include
sources, local history information - alongwith some dos and don't on
renovation and maintenance - a general guide and reference - partly to
generate someappreciation, provide some orientation prior to undertaking
irreversible changes which can detract from a home orneighborhood's
historic features and appearance. The request is a revival of prior
initiative which never really got off the ground, but there seems to be
more support now. To those who responded several years ago, Sorry to
impose again,But would still appreciate your help even if I am asking
you to send something twice. I would be interested in any
suggestions,experiences, and Particularly, any examples which you use in
your town or city. Thanks again Jay Gaffney Tewksbury Historical
Commission
