[MassHistPres] HIstoric Preservation Restrictions

[Kate Matison]

Betsy,

 

Historic New England manages preservation restrictions in perpetuity, but
they require covering interior as well as the exterior. Not cheap, so could
CPC funds be applied?

All,

 

The Community Preservation Committee (CPC)  in Dracut, Ma. has several
projects that require an entity or organization to hold a preservation
restriction on a CPC-funded project.  As these properties are town-owned,
the local historical commission or historical society (a lot of overlap
between the two groups) cannot hold the restriction.

We've checked with various historical/preservation organizations in Lowell,
who either don't want to hold the restriction or have no experience in
holding a preservation restriction.

 

I'm curious who holds the preservation restriction on historic preservation
CPC-funded projects within your community?

 

Thank you.

 

Betsy Ware
