There will be an informational meeting June 3, Tuesday at 5:30 at The
Bee Tree Fire Dept. on Bee Tree Rd. in Swannanoa for landowners,
business owners, and others to learn more about not-for-profit and
government sponsored historic preservation of
 farmlands, buildings, and other properties. Speakers will be a
Restoration Specialist from the State Historic Preservation Office and
 the Southwest Regional Director of Preservation North Carolina.

 On the agenda are how historic preservation works, advantages to
property owners (tax breaks, etc.), and examples of what other NC
citizens are doing to take advantage of these opportunities.

 The meeting is open to the public and sponsored by Swannanoa Pride
Community Coalition, Revitalization & Commercial Development Task
Force. For more infromation visit  www.hpo.dcr.state.nc.us   or
