To the Honorable Board:

Per the Community Preservation Committee’s recommendation on March 4, 2015, I respectfully request that your Honorable Board appropriate $44,982 for the First Congregational Church of Somerville UCC to preserve and rehabilitate the stained glass window at its historic building. The appropriation will be allocated to the Historic Resources CPA category and funded from Undesignated CPA Fund Balance.

The Committee attached the following conditions to the recommended appropriation: 1) the rehabilitation must comply with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties; 2) a perpetual preservation restriction; 3) a public access requirement; and 4) a review and comment session with the Historic Preservation Commission.

Respectfully,

Joseph A. Curtatone
