For an asbestos removal project, our thanks to The Connecticut State Historic Preservation Office (CT SHPO), which administers the Historic Restoration Fund program (HRF), a 50% matching reimbursement grant program for the preservation of historic properties and sites that are listed in the State or National Register of Historic Places, either individually or as part of a district.
HRF grants are funded by the Community Investment Act (also known as Public Act 05-228), which was signed into law on July 11, 2005. The Act provides increased funding for historic preservation as well as open space, farmland preservation, and affordable housing.
