To the Honorable Board:
Per the Community Preservation Committee’s recommendation, I respectfully request that your Honorable Board appropriate $38,000 from the Community Preservation Act Fund historic resources reserve to the Elizabeth Peabody House Association for an addressable fire alarm system for its historically significant building. The appropriation will be allocated to the historic resources CPA category. The following funding conditions have been placed on the project: 1) Execution, and recording, of the historic preservation restriction that was required by the FY15 CPA grant; 2) Upon commencement of the Project and as appropriate, the Elizabeth Peabody House Association agrees to post a sign stating that the Project was funded through the City of Somerville's Community Preservation Act program. Details of this request are available in the attached funding recommendation from the CPC.
My staff will be available to address any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration of this item.
Respectfully Submitted,
Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
