Hughes has served as deputy director of the Trust since October 2002 and has been acting director for the past 10 months, Hogan’s office said. The Trust, a division of the Maryland Department of Planning, serves as Maryland’s State Historic Preservation Office and provides direct assistance to a broad base of local, state, and federal stakeholders in the identification, protection, and enhancement of heritage resources. The Trust administers a variety of historic preservation grant, loan, and tax credit programs including the Sustainable Communities Tax Credit, which leverages private investment in the rehabilitation of both commercial and residential historic properties.”
