2011-2016 Kansas Preservation Plan

From introduction: "This document is the result of a planning process initiated by the Kansas Historical Society’s Cultural Resources Division (CRD) with input from a variety of state and federal agencies, preservation organizations, and the public. The CRD carries out many preservation functions in Kansas, including assisting the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) in assuring compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, implementing state and federal grant and tax credit programs, managing and maintaining the historic property and archeological site inventories for Kansas, interpreting the history and prehistory of the state as reflected by material culture, and developing and implementing educational programming for all Kansans. Many other organizations carry out preservation programs in Kansas; more information on those that participated in this plan and their preservation programs is presented on the following pages. Each year the CRD staff meets or speaks with thousands of constituents. These contacts range from simple phone conversations to site visits to formal presentations at conferences, workshops, and focus groups. The division uses the information from these contacts to hone its programs to meet constituent needs and also to develop the current preservation plan." Funding was provided in part by a 2011 Historic Preservation Fund grant administered by the Kansas State Historic Preservation Office (project number KS-11-023, grant number 20-11-31923) and the State, Tribal, and Local Plans and Grants Division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
