August 17, 2021

“Boston remains committed to preserving the history and beauty of its neighborhoods by investing directly into the communities we serve,” said Mayor Janey. “By funding community-based and grassroots projects, the City empowers neighborhoods directly.”

The Community Preservation Fund is capitalized primarily by a one percent property tax-based surcharge on residential and business property tax bills that began in July 2017 after Boston voters adopted the measure on a ballot question in November 2016.
