From the Preface: "...Planning for our future must include planning for the preservation and protection of our heritage - our historic places and cultural patterns that tell the story of who we have been and who we are becoming. 'From the Ground Up: A Preservation Plan for Georgia' is the plan for the state historic preservation program administered by the Historic Preservation Division (HPD) of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. It covers the beginning years of the 21st century, specifically the years 2001 through 2006. It incorporates many of the elements of HPD's previous plan, 'New Vision: The Preservation Plan for Georgia's Heritage', and builds on its firm foundations....Its guiding principle is the protection of all of Georgia's historic resources, from archaeological sites buried under the earth or submerged under water to the structures, houses, buildings, objects, landscapes, and traditional cultural properties that encompass our built environment. It engages a vision that includes Georgia citizens from all walks of life contributing to the preservation of our shared heritage. The Historic Preservation Division has adopted this plan as a statement of policy direction and as a commitment to action for the protection and use of Georgia's valuable historic resources. Because it represents the views and priorities of preservationists throughout Georgia who participated in its development, 'From the Ground Up: A Preservation Plan for Georgia' can provide common direction for all organizations and individuals who support the preservation of our historic places." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the Historic Preservation Division, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, administered by the State, Tribal, Local Plans and Grants division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
