Neighborhood Preservation
What is the Neighborhood Preservation Act?
In Senate Bill 20, enacted during the 1999 Legislative Session, the Missouri General Assembly authorized a State Tax Credit program to encourage reinvestment in older neighborhoods. The approval of this bill was a top legislative priority of the late County Executive Buzz Westfall. The program provides tax credits to offset part of the cost of investment in repair or construction of owner-occupied housing in moderate income neighborhoods throughout Missouri.
Re-occupancy permits

previously applied only in designated Property Conservation Districts
will now apply to all of unincorporated St. Louis County.
Information about occupancy permit requirements is available from the
