G R E E N PAG E S
A Sourcebook of Contractors, Suppliers and Service Providers
Who Support Preservation
2010 Edition
Of course we’re behind preserving
Savannah’s
rich history.
We’ve been a part of its
banking history since 1955.
We are proud to be a member of the
1733 Society

Letter from the President & CEO
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, members and staff of Historic Savannah Foundation,
I am pleased to present the 2010 Edition of the HSF Green Pages. This is your one-stopsource for finding the services you need to live, work and play in the Hostess City.
We strongly encourage you to support these businesses not only because they support
preservation and HSF, but because they are local. The Green Pages includes scores of local
professionals and small businesses that pump millions of dollars into Savannah’s economy.
The dollars they generate are leveraged and recycled in Savannah over and over, and for
that we are grateful.
You may notice a new look for the Green Pages…featuring Historic Savannah
Foundation’s new logo. We are in the midst of a re-branding campaign to freshen our look
and reintroduce this venerable organization to the community. This is the first of several
updates and improvements—not the least of which will be a forthcoming revamping of
our website (www.historicsavannahfoundation.org) that should come on-line in early summer. We welcome and value your feedback into this process; do not hesitate to share your
views with us by e-mailing me at [email protected] or calling me at
233-7787.
Also, please note the pictures of the 2009 award winners on the cover of the publication.
HSF highlights these to point out the best of restoration, rehabilitation, stewardship and
infill. We commend the award recipients for their excellent work. In 2011, HSF will
introduce a new format for the awards program—making it a stand alone event separate
from its traditional place in the annual meeting. We want to celebrate these bar-setting
projects and laud them in an event dedicated just to them. Consequently, we will not be
soliciting nominations for awards in 2010. Stay tuned to HSF for more details as we
develop this new event.
Thank you for supporting Historic Savannah Foundation and for our corporate sponsors
who appear in the Green Pages. Happy New Year!
Daniel G. Carey
President & CEO

Historic Savannah Foundation…
Then and Now
Historic Savannah Foundation, Inc. (HSF) is a local, non-profit preservation organization
dedicated to protecting and preserving Savannah’s heritage. Borne out of threats to demolish
the Davenport House for a parking lot, HSF was organized and chartered in 1955 to preserve
the buildings, squares and neighborhoods in the City of Savannah. Originally, HSF focused
most of its attention on saving endangered buildings in the National Historic Landmark
District. Over the last few decades, the organization has expanded its programs and service
area to include all of Savannah and Chatham County - which now boasts more than a dozen
historic districts.
HSF is the voice for preservation in Savannah. It focuses on advocacy, education and community involvement in fulfilling its mission. With a membership of more than 800, a professional staff of 10 and a diverse 30-member Board of Trustees, HSF is a strong and stable organization. Located in the Abraham Sheftall House (c.1818) on Columbia Square, HSF is recognized for its outstanding programs, its award-winning Isaiah Davenport House Museum,
and, perhaps most of all, its acclaimed Revolving Fund. HSF buys at-risk historic properties,
stabilizes them and sells them to preservation-minded buyers with protective covenants. To
date, HSF has saved nearly 400 properties through purchase and resale, stabilization and conservation easements. It is this fee simple intervention which distinguishes HSF from many
other local preservation organizations. HSF puts its money where its mouth is and takes an
ownership interest in protecting, preserving and stewarding Savannah.
The same demolition threats that sparked HSF’s birth in 1955 are as ever-present in 2010. It
is important to remember that downtown was once blighted but, thanks to HSF and some
visionary leaders, the answer was not removal. The answer, and the reason Savannah is what
it is today, was preservation. Fifty years hence, historic neighborhoods to the east, west and
south of downtown are experiencing the same pressures that once faced the Landmark District.
They are being ‘pock-marked’ by neglect. And, sadly, the short-sighted, knee-jerk reaction is
still demolition and removal.
Fortunately, Savannah’s more enlightened leadership sees that past can be prologue in terms of
saving the community’s heritage. Heritage—history, architecture and the Oglethorpe Plan—
is what distinguishes Savannah from other cities, and it is the fulcrum of the local economy.
But success needs to be managed. Savannah is so good at promoting itself that the Landmark
District must absorb a crush of tourists, unsympathetic alterations and increases in height,
scale and density pressures…which bring a whole new set of challenges.
HSF is up to the task; it works with the City, MPC, Chamber of Commerce and private property and business owners throughout Savannah to find common ground. We work to bring
resolution to issues. With your help and membership, we can fulfill our mission and improve
Savannah’s economy. Please join us.

REVOLVING FUND PROGRAM
Historic Savannah Foundation's Revolving Fund is nationally recognized for
saving hundreds of historic buildings in Savannah. HSF started its Revolving
Fund in 1959 and saved blocks and blocks of buildings in Pulaski, Monterey,
and Troup Wards. It is also the single most important program that HSF has
ever implemented.
Like most traditional revolving funds, HSF purchases endangered historic
structures and holds them for resale to a new owner committed to preservation. HSF retains a restrictive covenant on the property to assure its future
preservation and maintenance.
Here's How It Works:
1. Donations to HSF's Revolving Fund are used to purchase an endangered property.
2. HSF sells the property to a person who promises to rehabilitate the building.
3. HSF ensures preservation of the building by attaching protective deed covenants.
4. HSF uses the money from the resale to purchase another property.
How does HSF decide which buildings it will save?
HSF's Revolving Fund Committee uses four criteria to make these critical
decisions. In order to qualify for acquisition the building must be:
* Endangered: It must be threatened with demolition either by its physical
condition, development pressure or other reason.
* Significant: It must be either listed on the National Register of Historic
Places or eligible for listing.
* Obtainable: The owner of the building must be willing to sell the building. If not, other preservation strategies must be employed.
* Marketable: The building must be in a condition that rehabilitation is feasible and the sales price would be reasonable. If not, the committee must
decide if it wants to subsidize the acquisition of the building.
In addition to these four main criteria, other factors play a role as well.
Choosing locations where the Revolving Fund can have the most impact, such
as street corners, is extremely important. The property also must be vacant,
as the Fund avoids displacement of people.
71
EASEMENT PROGRAM
What is a preservation easement?
A preservation easement is a legal interest which regulates changes to a historic
building and its land. It may be given or sold by a property owner to a charitable organization. Once recorded, an easement becomes part of the property's chain of title and 'runs with the land' in perpetuity, thus binding not only
the present owner who conveys it but all future owners as well. A preservation easement gives Historic Savannah Foundation (HSF) the legal authority
to enforce its terms. These terms create restrictive covenants prohibiting the
owner from making alterations to the property without prior review, consultation and approval by HSF. The easement also imposes positive covenants
that require the owner to maintain the property in a certain physical condition.
What are the benefits of donating an easement?
Donating an easement protects a significant property even after an owner has
sold or bequeathed it. If the property is located in a local historic district, the
easement provides additional and, in some cases, more stringent protections.
Easement donations provide income, gift and estate tax advantages for the
donor. Most importantly, it protects historic properties for future generations. How does an easement protect property? Easement properties are documented and inspected annually by the HSF staff. The easement holder
(HSF) has the right to review, consult and approve (or disapprove) proposed
alterations to a structure or its setting and to enforce the terms of the easement
in the event of a violation.
How is an easement valued?
Valuation, made by a professional appraiser, is typically the difference between
the fair market value of the property before and after the grant of easement.
An easement may reduce the market value of a property because it restricts
development rights. How does a property qualify for an easement deduction
under federal tax law? Certified historic structures are eligible; most often they
are listed on the National Register of Historic Places or are ‘contributing’ to a
National Register or local historic district.
72
EASEMENT PROGRAM (continued)
What are the possible tax consequences of an easement donation?
For federal income tax purposes, the most important benefit is that the value
of the donated easement may be deducted as a charitable contribution (thereby reducing the donor’s taxable income). The donor receives a one-time charitable deduction on federal income tax for the potential reduced value of the
property. In addition to the income tax deduction, federal estate taxes may
also be reduced if the fair market value of a property is reduced by a preservation easement.
For state (GA) income tax purposes, the Georgia Conservation Tax Credit
Program allows a tax credit equal to the value of the easement donation;
capped at 25% of the fair market value of the donated property (not to exceed
$250,000 for individuals and $500,000 for corporations). An easement may
also decrease a property’s local tax assessment and thus its local property taxes.
NOTE: The complexities of the federal tax code and the applicable IRS regulations are not easily encapsulated in a short summary, so prospective donors are
strongly advised to seek the advice and assistance of an attorney with experience in
such matters.
