Here is an inquiry I am forwarding from a historic preservation commission
Chair (in GA, I think). Defining the criteria for degree of deterioration
that would rise to a violation of "preventive maintenance" or "demolition by
neglect" provisions is not an uncommon problem for HP commissions. Can anyone
provide some information or experience in various states?
