Heritage Advisory Committee

The Heritage Advisory Committee was created to obtain eligibility for Maryland Historical Trust Heritage Preservation Grants Program.

The Heritage Advisory Committee is to consist of at least five members, all of whom have specific knowledge, training, or a demonstrated interest in heritage preservation. One member must be a local elected official. The primary task of the advisory committee is to formulate a survey and evaluation plan.
The Heritage Preservation Liaison must be an employee of county government. The liaison must dedicate 10 hours per week to preservation activities including answering questions from the public.
The Committee is to actively work to complete a Heritage Resource Survey and Evaluation Plan. This plan must:
-Identify the principal known or expected heritage themes or contexts for the county according to Preservation Vision 2000: The Maryland Plan

-Summarize past survey and evaluation efforts for each type resource.

-Identify known gaps or outdated information in existing survey and evaluation materials for each type resource.

-Identify known threats for each resource type.

-Summarize the goals and objectives for the survey and evaluation work anticipated to be completed at the end of five years (five years is preferable but not mandatory).

-List survey and evaluation activities to be undertaken, by year, for the period covered by the plan.
