body

Official Text

To the Honorable Board:

Per the Community Preservation Committee’s recommendation on March 4, 2015, I respectfully request that your Honorable Board appropriate $7,500 for the Planning Division to contract a historic preservation consultant to prepare a National Register Nomination for the American Tube Works Complex; designation would make the complex eligible for historic tax credits which will incentivize rehabilitation. The appropriation will be allocated to the Historic Resources category and funded from the Historic Resources Reserve.

Respectfully,

Joseph A. Curtatone

Mayor
