HLPC schedules training, notes membership and statewide preservation events as software rollout approaches
Summary
The commission discussed membership in the National Alliance of Preservation Commissions, an upcoming New York statewide preservation conference, a local tax‑credit workshop and a scheduled training for new online application software; staff will circulate training dates and log‑in details.
Commissioners received a series of administrative updates on March 6, including confirmation that the commission’s membership in the National Alliance of Preservation Commissions is being processed, notice of the New York Statewide Preservation Conference (early May) and a local workshop on tax credit programs later in March. Planning staff also outlined the schedule and logistics for training on the new online intake software the department is implementing.
Staff said membership benefits include webinars and training resources for commissioners. The Statewide Preservation Conference will be held in May (staff cited early May dates; commission members asked to express interest). Planning staff said a March workshop on tax‑credit programs would be offered at the REAR Center and that scholarships and continuing education credits may be available for commissioners.
On the software rollout, staff asked commissioners to bring laptops or tablets to an in‑person training; the platform will use two‑factor verification and will treat commissioners as a contributor tier with access to HLPC projects. Staff will circulate a proposed training date and asked commissioners to flag major conflicts (several commissioners named travel dates in late March/early April). The commission did not take a formal vote on these items; staff will circulate training invitations and event details.
