Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 18, September 24, 2024

Pursuant to 36 CFR 61, the certified local government program is designed to promote the identification, evaluation, nomination and protection of cultural properties by establishing a partnership between the local government and the HPD which seeks to encourage and expand local involvement in preservation issues. Such partnerships will help to assure that:

A. historic preservation issues are understood and addressed at the local level and are integrated into the local planning and decision-making process at the earliest possible opportunity;

B. local interests and concerns are integrated into the historic preservation process of the HPD;

C. information concerning local historic preservation issues is provided to the HPD and to the public;

D. local historic district and landmark legislation and historic preservation review commissions are established in local governments where they do not yet exist and are updated, if necessary, where they already exist;

E. existing archaeological records and historic cultural properties inventory information maintained by the HPD is made available to the local community to use in identifying and defining community and neighborhood development and historic district areas; and

F. by participating in the preservation of cultural properties within their communities, CLGs:

(1) assume a leadership role in the preservation of the community's prehistoric and historic resources;

(2) have a formal role in the national register nomination review process;

(3) participate in the establishment of regional and state historic preservation objectives;

(4) are eligible to apply for subgrants from a designated certified local government fund established annually by the HPD whenever such funds are available; and

(5) receive technical and advisory services from the HPD.
