State Historic Preservation Plan

A State Historic Preservation Plan is a strategic guide that outlines how a state will identify, protect, and manage its historic sites, buildings, and cultural resources. It sets priorities for preservation efforts, ensuring that important history is maintained for future generations. The plan involves collaboration among government agencies, communities, and preservation organizations to balance development with conservation. By analyzing historical assets and potential threats, it helps inform policies and projects that safeguard a state's cultural heritage, fostering a sense of identity and continuity while supporting responsible growth.
