Incorporating preservation into the planning process

This historic resources survey represents the City's first major step in preservation planning. Preservation plans most often consist of three main elements: identification, evaluation, and protection. This survey begins the process of identification and evaluation that is necessary to move forward with protective measures.

After a preservation plan has been developed the next step is often drafting a preservation ordinance. Preservation ordinances basically set forth the "procedures and standards that will be used by the preservation program in evaluation decisions and in decisions about approval or disapproval of particular kinds of activities that may affect historic properties."56

Recordation with the California Office of Historic Preservation (OHP)

The California Office of Historic Preservation (OHP) encourages the submission of all types of data about historical resources, including even minimal records. The minimum level of documentation required for recordation in OHP's filing system is a completed primary record. This level of documentation is designed to provide an initial baseline record of the resource.57
