[MassHistPres] preferably preserved

[Jane Lowell]

Thank you for your response.  The house has already been deemed historically
significant.  It also has significant structural issues.  It has been looked
at by two members of the HC, the building inspector and a preservation
consultant who determined the cost of restoration.  I don't know whether the
HC should take into consideration the cost of restoration if the developer
knew the age of the house and the fact that Mendon had a DDB.

I would suggest that in your posting for the meeting you indicate that
informed comments and opinions will be considered;  in writing by (a
convenient date,) or verbally at the meeting. 
It is also possible that a consultant could be retained with a background in
preservation. it may be late for this; is there a time constraint?

The Mendon Historical Commission is having a hearing to determine if a
building should be preferably preserved.  This hearing is a first for the
HC.  What criteria do other commissions use to determine if a building
should be preferably preserved?  Any advice will be appreciated.

                               

 
Regards,

 
Jane Lowell    Mendon HC
