The Conservation Easement is a property
interest which, as used by The L'Enfant
Trust, embodies the right to change
the exterior appearance of the property
it protects. When the Conservation
Easement right is held by a responsible
community steward, both the property
owner and the community can be assured
that change, which over time is inevitable,
will take into account sound preservation
values and the aesthetic concerns of both
the property owner and the community.
Federal law does not allow a tax deduction for an easement which protects only the front of a building or its ‘view from the street.' |
