[MassHistPres] Historic property surveys and the CPA

[James J O'Rourke Jr]

Hi Mr. Slate:

Attached is an opinion from DOR.  It is self-explanatory.

I respectfully suggest you obtain an opinion from your Corporation Counsel
as well.  If whatever body you represent intends to apply for CPA funds or
recommend a historic survey CPA project, you should rely on a carefully
considered legal opinion.  You should not rely on interpretations which are
set forth on this mailing list.

Jim O'Rourke, Chairman, Somerset Historical Commission

Can someone point me to a formal opinion by the MA Department of Revenue
which says that Historic Property Surveys are not allowed to be funded under
the CPA?

Thanks,
