All,
I've just re-read the Mass=2E Historical Commission's very helpful document
entitled Establishing Local Historic Districts (LHD's)=2E
It strongly suggests conducting an initial survey about the desirability of
establishing an LHD=2E
My question is, does this have to be entirely conducted by U=2ES=2EMail? I=
would certainly send U=2ES=2E Mail to property owners that might be affected=
by
the LHD, but is there any reason I can't also send out the survey to the
community listserve?
Chris Bader
Chair, Medford Historic District Commission
