Hobson-Morris N. 2017. Ingredients for Preservation Partnerships in Louisiana: 2017-2025 Comprehensive Preservation Plan. Office of Cultural Development, Louisiana Division of Historic Preservation

From the Introduction: "One of the key requirements of every State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) by the National Park Service (NPS) is to develop a State Plan that will guide the manner in which cultural resources in the state are considered and interpreted by those who have the ability to affect them, whether positive or negative, and by those who have the power to regulate certain actions. This plan serves as a general guide for decision making throughout the state and was developed in conjunction with Louisiana stakeholders who have an interest in how the future of preservation is shaped in the state. With the understanding that it takes a village to impact true progress, the Louisiana SHPO is pleased to present this plan which will be effect for eight years. The goals and objectives of the current plan were informed by the realization of the limited reach of preservation in certain regions of the state, and with the knowledge that a critical first step will be to form stronger and new partnerships to reach a wider audience regarding historic preservation and archaeological conservation... This state historic preservation plan includes Louisiana's history in historic preservation, an introduction to cultural resources, past performance during the last plan period, and updated goals and objectives for the current plan period. The SHPO determined that an eight year plan period 2017-2025 was preferable to allow for a greater period through which to implement and measure outcomes... During this next plan period, the SHPO will continue the momentum on several goals and objectives initiated in the previous plan, with modified or added objectives informed through public surveys, the preservation community, and current and future partnerships..." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the Office of Cultural Development, Louisiana Division of Historic Preservation, administered by the State, Tribal, Local Plans and Grants division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
