"The actions [of the historic preservation boards] take on near religious fervor."

I think there should be a law that - if an HPB imposes restrictions that the property owner cannot comply with, or does not want to comply with - the HPB should be forced to buy the property at FMV plus 20%, which would be a surcharge to compensate for the building's alleged "historic" status, thereby discouraging the boards from frivolous "historic" designations.

For future reference, should anyone need reminding, this is the bulls-eye.

If whoever owned the church wanted dignified treatment of the crosses, they should have not sold it to non-Christians or at least respectfully removed the crosses themselves.

Had it been purchased to be a Jewish synagogue, the same thing would happen.

I’m not a fan of “historic preservation” in many cases either; it tends to be overused.
