[MassHistPres] HPC delegation of responsibilities to Staff

[Amie Hayes]

How do other municipalities delegate responsibilities of the HPC? 

 

Our recent legal interpretation of Ch40C states that the HPC must make
the determination if a feature is not visible from a public way, not
Staff. Additionally, the statute does not use language that enables the
HPC to delegate any responsibilities to Staff other that issuing
Certificates for in-kind repairs, even if a list of materials has been
identified by the HPC.
