Virginia's Comprehensive Historic Preservation Plan 2022-2027

Introduction: "An effective statewide, comprehensive historic preservation plan informs, inspires, and represents the work of those diverse stakeholders who have shaped and continue to shape the future of historic preservation in Virginia. As Virginia's State Historic Preservation Office, the Department of Historic Resources (DHR) is mandated periodically to develop and publish such a plan by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (as amended), DHR set a six-year planning cycle to correlate with the Virginia Department of Transportation's Six-Year Improvement Plan; accordingly, the goals, objectives, and strategies outlined later in this plan target the period 2022 through 2027. Although DHR has adopted the goals and objectives of this plan to guide its own agency programs, services, and efforts, the plan is intended for use by all Virginia communities and preservation stakeholders throughout the Commonwealth. While the plan reflects the preservation issues of greatest concern to stakeholders from all regions of the state, it also presents broad goals and objectives that stakeholders can adopt to ensure they have an important role in the preservation of Virginia's irreplaceable historic resources." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the Virginia Department of Historic Resources, administered by the State, Tribal, Local Plans and Grants division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
