[MassHistPres] Fee Schedule

[Dennis De Witt]

These are Brookline’s posted fees.  
They are not for newpaper ads as those are not required.  They are for staff time.

• Certificate of Appropriateness: a sliding fee scale of $2.00 per $1,000 of the estimated cost for the work, with a
minimum fee of $50.00.

•   Certificate of Non-Applicability: $20.00.

•   Retroactive Certificate: Three times the usual fee, with a minimum of $150.00 for a retroactive Certificate of Appropriateness and $60.00 for a retroactive Certificate of Non-Applicability.



Demolition — a little confusing at first glance because the fees are $300 or $100 — not $200 or $100

• Certificate of Appropriateness: A sliding fee scale of $2.00 per $1,000 of the estimated cost for the work, with a
minimum fee of $50.00.

•   Certificate of Non-Applicability: $20.00.

•   Retroactive Certificate: Three times the usual fee, with a minimum of $150.00 for a Certificate of Appropriateness and $60.00 for a Certificate of Non-Applicability.

Both certainly take staff time to review and usually require a legal notice being advertised and abutters notified.  Do any of you assess a filing charge and/or a fee for the legal ad?
