From introduction: "There are various reasons why preservation is important to Guam, but the most important is that it connects the community to the past. Preservation and heritage planning establishes a future direction and vision for historic and cultural resource protection. On Guam, cultural resources include historic places, as well as cultural practices and patterns. Na’ Nina’etnunen Linahyan Ni’ Manmaloffan—Connecting the Community to the Past, A Comprehensive Historic Preservation Plan for Guam, 2007–2011 is a comprehensive plan that will guide the Guam State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) for the next five years. The plan will provide direction for the preservation and protection of Guam’s rich, but fragile historic resources through a series of goals and objectives that will address preservation needs to meet the plan’s vision. The plan also identifies current critical trends, issues, threats, and opportunities affecting historic preservation. This plan is an update to the 1997 Historic Preservation in Guam: A Comprehensive Plan. The 1997 plan identified ten major preservation trends and issues: economic development and historic places; natural hazards and historic presservation; property rights concerns; effective enforcement of compliance agreements; site looting; public involvement and information; heritage tourism; restoration planning; and long term records and collections care. Since the last plan’s publication 10 years ago, some issues remain while new trends have emerged that will shape preservation planning for Guam’s historic resources. Goals and strategies were also included in the 1997 Plan." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant administered by the Guam State Historic Preservation Office and the State, Tribal, and Local Plans and Grants Division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
