Maine Real Estate & Development Association (MEREDA) Hosts Bangor Breakfast Seminar Revisiting the Topic of Maine’s Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit on September 23, 2008

Sponsored by: Bangor Savings Bank, Drummond Woodsum & MacMahon, & WBRC Architects Engineers

This year, the
Maine Legislature significantly expanded  the credit to provide a Maine state
credit equal to 25 percent of qualified rehabilitation expenditures. Projects
that involve a substantial affordable housing component receive a credit at a 30
percent rate. The Federal credit adds an additional 20 percent of qualified
rehabilitation expenditures. The combined credits provide a powerful financial
resource for the preservation of Maine’s historic buildings and for downtown
redevelopment.

Our panel (Amy Cole Ives, founder of Sutherland Conservation &
Consulting in Hallowell, and John Kaminski and Gary
Vogel
, both attorneys at Drummond Woodsum & MacMahon in Portland) will
discuss the legislative process to enact the expanded credit, the requirements
and potential uses of the credit as a tool for historic preservation and
development, the linkage of the increased credit to affordable housing and the
impact that the credit is expected to have on historic preservation in Maine.

Join us on Tuesday, September
23, 2008 from 7:30 – 9:30 AM at the Sea Dog Banquet & Conference Center, 26
Front Street, Bangor, ME.
