March 23, 2022 - The Texas Historical Commission is in the process of working on the Statewide Historic Preservation Plan for 2022-2032.
For the first phase of planning, help is needed to explore answers to the following questions:
- What are the most pressing issues facing our efforts to save Texas history and historic places?
- How does historic preservation help nurture vibrant and diverse communities?
- In what ways can we illustrate how historic preservation contributes to the livelihood of Texans?
- How can preservationists resiliently face constant economic, social, and environmental change?
- In what ways are these issues made more challenging by the impacts of our recent health crisis?
You can also use their website, https://www.texaspreservationplan.com/, to share stories related to Texas history, offer ideas to improve preservation efforts, and map the historic places that are important to you.
