Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the country more and more states are taking advantage of the economic value of state historic tax credits that can be used in conjunction with federal rehabilitation tax credits to incentivize significant investment in the rehabilitation of buildings. Texas joined thirty-three other states when it passed a state historic tax credit in 2013. The financial incentives of this new piece of legislation are expected to spur the rehabilitation of historic buildings in large cities and small towns across the state. In order to be a successful statewide program the tax credit must be an attractive financial incentive for not only sophisticated investors, but also for small building owners with no previous tax credit or rehabilitation experience. The tax credit creates a new market of buyers and sellers, drawing the attention of local and national real estate developers and investors. The ability to combine state and federal historic tax credits changes the bottom line in real estate pro formas, leveraging historic buildings as assets. The availability of the tax credit for small preservation projects may have the greatest impact on historic preservation efforts across the states as smaller towns begin to see new investment in downtown commercial districts. This report explains how the tax credit was created, analyzes the strength of the policy, and makes recommendations for its implementation and use. This work addresses a series of important questions. Will the Texas Historic Preservation Tax Credit be an effective economic driver as compared to other state historic tax credits? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the Texas tax credit? This report analyzes the new Texas program and gages its potential to incentivize the rehabilitation of historic properties in a range of sizes and locales.

Download or read book Economic Impact of Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit Programs in Virginia written by and published by Preservation Virginia. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virginia has been a national leader in historic preservation for many years. One of the many areas where this is reflected is in the use of historic tax credits in the Commonwealth. As of FY 2012, the most recent year for which such data are available, Virginia ranks third in the nation in total dollar volume of estimated qualified rehabilitation expenditures at project completion, behind only Massachusetts and Missouri. Preservation Virginia retained the VCU Center for Urban and Regional Development to conduct an analysis of the economic impacts of historic rehabilitation, financed in part through the Virginia Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit Program and the Federal Historic Tax Credit Program, from 1997 to 2013. This analysis builds upon reports and updates completed by VCU for the Virginia Department of Historic Resources in 2007, 2010 and 2012. Like those earlier reports, this study documents the significant economic returns that Virginia realizes from preserving and re-using historic properties. Similarly, a study published in 2012 by Virginia’s Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission concluded that unlike some tax preference programs that do not achieve their stated goals, Virginia’s Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit Program effectively achieves the goal of promoting the rehabilitation of historic structures. Although this report is able to document only the easily quantifiable returns of economic activity and tax revenues, historic preservation brings many additional benefits to society. These include aesthetic and psychological benefits that help citizens understand their heritage and which improve the attractiveness of places to residents, businesses and tourists. Ultimately, these impacts strengthen the economy and augment the tax base as well. Tax credit usage in Virginia has occurred more often in urban areas, such as Richmond, Hampton Roads, Northern Virginia and Roanoke, than in rural areas. This is understandable, since urban areas have more buildings, as well as a larger percentage of the stock of historic buildings. However, tax credit-financed projects have been completed in most communities throughout the Commonwealth, reflecting both the utility and perhaps the future expansion potential of this program. (See Map ES 1, below.) From 2000 (when the Virginia Historic Tax Credit was raised to 25% of qualified rehabilitation expenditures) through 2011 (the most recent year for which all Virginia tax credit projects have been completed and certified), an average of 174 projects have been certified each year. The number of rehabilitation projects increased steadily from 1997 to 2005, when it reached its peak of 235 projects certified per year. The Great Recession of 2008-09, which had a very significant effect on the construction industry overall, caused a moderate decline in historic rehabilitation activity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containing papers presented at the 9th International Conference on Sustainable Development and Planning this volume brings together the work of academics, policy makers, practitioners and other international stakeholders and discusses new academic findings and their application in planning and development strategies, assessment tools and decision making processes. Problems related to development and planning are present in all areas and regions of the world. Accelerated urbanisation has resulted in both the deterioration of the environment and quality of life. Taking into consideration the interaction between different regions and developing new methodologies for monitoring, planning and implementation, new strategies can offer solutions mitigating environmental pollution and non-sustainable use of available resources. Energy saving and eco-friendly buildings have become an important part of modern day progress with emphasis on resource optimisation. Planning is a key part in ensuring that these solutions along with new materials and processes are efficiently incorporated. Planners, environmentalists, architects, engineers and economists have to work collectively to ensure that present and future needs are met. The papers in the book cover a number of topics, including: City planning; Regional planning; Rural developments; Sustainability and the built environment; Sustainability supply chain; Resilience; Environmental management; Energy resources; Cultural heritage; Quality of life; Sustainable solutions in emerging countries; Sustainable tourism; Learning from nature; Transportation; Social and political issues; Community planning; UN Sustainable Development Goals and Timber Structures.
