KY Heritage Council seeks public input on 5-year plan By Diane Comer Frankfort, KY - The Kentucky Heritage Council/State Historic Preservation Office (KHC) has launched a survey seeking public input for a new five-year state historic preservation plan that will outline goals, objectives and strategies for helping preserve historic buildings and other sites across the commonwealth. Questions will gather feedback on what individuals believe to be the most important historic resources in their community, what are the most effective tools and main challenges to preserving these places, and what are the most urgent preservation goals for Kentucky, among others. The survey takes five minutes to complete at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/DG92V32. "What's at stake is our sense of home and identity as Kentuckians," said Dr. Orloff Miller Certified Local Government Program and Planning Coordinator. "Change is inevitable, and with change comes loss. Let's decide now what we do not want to lose, what preservation tools you as citizens need at hand, and what you want to see preserved. Through this process we want to help our constituents support preservation more effectively and make sure our agency goals are aligned."
