Book Description
Excerpt from Local Historic Preservation Plans: A Selected Annotated Bibliography The National Park Service (nps) receives inquiries on a regular basis from State Historic Preservation Offices, Certified Local Governments, and others about preservation plans and preservation planning activities at the local level. Indeed, a substantial number of local preservation plans are funded through the nps-administered Historic Preservation Fund grants program. The National Park Service encourages local communities to develop preserva tion plans as a means of organizing local preserva tion activities and integrating preservation into broader community and land use planning efforts. Given this background, it seemed incumbent upon nps to study local preservation plans and provide an overview of the range of plans currently in use; this annotated bibliography is the result. In the spring of 1992, nps requested copies of local preservation plans from more than communi ties with preservation programs around the country. The solicitation asked communities to submit both stand-alone preservation plans as well as preserva tion elements in local comprehensive plans for potential inclusion in an annotated bibliography. Somewhat less than 200 documents were received by mid-summer. The plans were sorted and analyzed according to diverse criteria. A preference was given to more recent documents; those developed within the last ten years. An effort was made to select plans from different sections of the country as well as from a wide range of community types, i.e. Small rural towns, suburban communities, large cities. Also plans illustrating a wide range of approaches to preservation planning were consciously included from historic context-based plans to those featuring a preservation issues orientation. Finally, plans which go beyond merely establishing a work pro gram for the preservation commission, but rather link preservation efforts with broader community concerns including land use planning were given emphasis.
