Subject: FYI: Historic preservation tax cut
Hi Mark,
Thanks for your email. I wanted to forward this email to you because it mentions
a proposal by Gov. Rendell for tax cut incentives for historic preservation.
Councilwoman Blackwell might cause the city to lose the potential to earn a lot
of state money, if this bill passes. It might add to your ammunition against
her proposal to mention Gov. Rendell's plans.
It appears that such tax-cut incentives will be given to businesses
rather than homeowners. (The text doesn't say so explicitly, but it
appears in a paragraph dealing with tax breaks given to businesses, so
it's a logical assumption.) While this is nice for business-owners, it
reinforces one of the problems with Historic Designation: it amounts to
a penalty for homeowners, who don't get these breaks.
