Dear Ms. Doyle:
We are pleased to inform you that the property which you own:
Woodlawn Baptist Church
Woodlawn Road at Highway 19
Nutbush, Haywood County, Tennessee
will be considered by the State Review Board for nomination to the National and
Tennessee Registers of Historic Places. The National Register of Historic
Places is the Federal government's official list of historic properties worthy of
preservation. Listing in the National Register provides recognition and assists in
preserving our Nation's heritage. Properties considered for the National
Register are simultaneously considered for the Tennessee Register. Properties
listed in the National Register will be automatically included in the Tennessee
Register.
Listing of the Woodlawn Baptist Church provides recognition of the
community's historic importance and assures protective review of Federal
projects that might adversely affect the character of the historic property. If the
property is listed in the National Register, certain Federal investment tax credits
for rehabilitation and other provisions may apply.
Listing in the National Register does not mean that the limitations will be placed
on the properties by the Federal government. Public visitation rights are not
required of owners. The Federal government will not attach restrictive
covenants to the properties nor seek to acquire them.
