Tax Credit Advisor, April 2011: A congressman from Western New York State has written to the National Park Service complaining about its interpretation of the regulations governing eligibility for historic rehabilitation tax credits in an effort to improve access to this tax incentive for large and complex historic preservation projects.
In a letter to Stephanie Toothman, NPS Associate Director, Cultural Services, Rep. Brian Higgins wrote to request a discussion with the Park Service, to learn more about these regulations “and if necessary” work with the Park Service to modify the regulations.
