Preservation in Practice: A Primer for Historic Preservation Commissions and Planners

All workshop attendees will receive a discount on registration for our fall 2018 class, Introduction to Historic Preservation.

This one-day workshop is open to all preservationists, but specifically geared toward those serving on a local commission. This program is designed to benefit both new and experienced commission members as well as being relevant for planning and zoning board members and elected officials. The course provides an in-depth examination of current topics and issues relevant to integrating preservation into community planning and zoning. Focus will be on legal parameters for implementing a commission, conducting an effective public meeting, and understanding and implementing tools to foster good preservation at the local level.
