Statewide Comprehensive Plan Available for Viewing 

The Alabama Historical Commission develops the Alabama Statewide Comprehensive Historic Preservation Plan to comply with the requirements of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, et. seq., and to provide information to help local, county, regional, and state organizations and individuals preserve our state's cultural resources. The AHC staff used facilitated planning sessions and public input provided through surveys and committee meetings to develop a mission and goals and objectives to guide the direction of preservation activities in Alabama. 

The AHC annual work plan to implement the Statewide Plan is published in the January-February 2008 Preservation Report newsletter and we invite public comments on these activities. The Statewide Plan will be up for revision again in 2012. Printed copies of the document are also provided on request. Contact Mary Mason Shell at (334) 230-2691 or mary.shell@preserveala.org to request a printed copy.
