Webinar: Developing a Strong Local Preservation Program

Webinar Topic: Developing a Strong Local Preservation Program

Date: September 29, 2025

Speaker: Jennifer Doherty (Preservation Planner, Barrett Planning Group)

Many aspects of community planning incorporate or are enhanced by historic preservation – economic development, tourism, zoning, housing, open space protection, and more. But local historic preservation efforts are often driven by a small group of volunteers rather than fully incorporated into the larger planning processes of the community. Local preservationists are often stuck being reactive to “preservation emergencies,” with little planning and forethought to how they can protect a community’s important historic and archaeological resources. In this webinar, Barrett Planning Group’s Preservation Planner, Jenn Doherty, will review the basics of preservation planning and provide actionable steps for developing a strong local preservation program.
