We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance.

The short explanation of this alert was:

The Historic Preservation Incentive Program (HB 221) is a piece of legislation that needs to be incorporated into the coming year's budget in order to preserve historic structures across Pennsylvania. We need your help to pass it!

If passed, it will encourage people who are buying, selling, or dealing with historic homes, homes in historic neighborhoods, or commercial properties in downtown areas to be sensitive to the history of a structure when rehabilitating it for reuse.

This legislation is designed to give incentives to homeowners and developers throughout Pennsylvania through making more grants and tax credits available for the rehab of historic structures. This way, we can preserve the history of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania while still encouraging economic development and reinvestment in our cities and towns.
