Declaration of Location Form

All applicants attempting to qualify for the State Tax Credit based on a property’s contribution to a locally designated historic district must submit a completed Declaration of Location form. Because the creation and monitoring of locally designated districts is the sole right and responsibility of the local unit, the SHPO may not have the most up-to-date local designation information. This form allows the owner/applicant and the local unit the opportunity to verify the limits of the district and promotes contact between the resource owner considering undertaking work and the agent of the local unit charged with monitoring aspects of that work. Please download this form here, fill in your answers, and upload it before submitting your application.
