OKLAHOMA CITY — A free webinar will be held 10 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 14, courtesy of the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) to teach about the Historic Preservation Tax Incentives program. Registration for the webinar is required.

Participants will learn about the federal and state investment tax credits for certified rehabilitation of a certified historic structure. A detailed discussion of the application process will guide owners and developers in successfully preparing the information needed for the SHPO to review the project and for the National Park Service to certify it.

This session is designed as a stand-alone workshop or as a companion to the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings.
