In its capacity as Responsible Entity for Part 58 Environmental Review responsibility, Minnesota Housing has developed a Programmatic Agreement with the State Historic Preservation Office to exempt certain activities from State Historic Preservation Office review. The Programmatic Agreement outlines those activities and the process the Agency must follow when making this determination.

Minnesota Housing will consider any comments from individuals or groups received in writing, and a summary of the comments on the Programmatic Agreement will be included in the final Agreement. The Programmatic Agreement will be submitted to the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation on March 31, 2020. Please contact Jennifer Wille at 651-296-9821 with questions. Written public comments on the Programmatic Agreement must be submitted by March 16, 2020 via:
