The Commission is reviewing whether the Pavilion project is following earlier agreements about historic artifacts and whether the property and memorial trustees are properly documented. It also identified broader preservation priorities, including updating the city’s historic inventory, considering a demolition-delay ordinance, and exploring funding for historic building rehabilitation. A stone-mapping visit is planned for the Old Burying Ground, and proposed rules for historic-preservation advisory opinions may be adopted at the April meeting.
