This rule establishes lending procedures for loans and loan subsidies made to New Mexico main street property owners for the repair, rehabilitation, restoration and preservation of eligible main street properties and to promote preservation and economic development in main street communities. The regulations describe the eligibility requirements for property owners and their property for loans or loan subsidies. The regulations describe the procedures that are followed and the documentation required and entered into by the state of New Mexico, the committee, historic preservation division and lending institutions or other entities that participate in the loan, and property owners, including descriptions of the preliminary loan application, the loan participation agreement, and the development agreement and preservation covenants and deed restrictions. The regulations also describe the terms and conditions contained in the required documentation and agreements entered into between the committee, division, lending institution, any other entity, and the borrower. This rule governs projects jointly funded by the state historic preservation division through the main street revolving loan fund and lending institutions. Entities other than lending institutions, e.g., non-profit organizations, may also contribute funding to the projects.
