Home Preservation Program

Good morning, NECKO - Hope everyone is navigating the health crisis and staying well!  See the message from Susan Keeny below on working with older houses during this time.  

______________________________________________________

I hope you are well and safe during this difficult time.  We know it's important to stay-in-place, but we still wanted to communicate with area homeowners, safely.

While the Columbus Landmarks Home Preservation Program won't be able to make site visits or conduct workshops, we wanted to share some things that homeowners can do to continue to care for the places in which they live.  Now more than ever it is important to maintain safe, healthy homes.

There are also some fun activities for any younger Italian Village residents.  Please feel free to share with your community.

Stay safe!
