Commission Assistance and Mentoring Program
Natl Alliance Pres CommissionsDecatur, AL
The Commission Assistance and Mentoring Program (CAMP) is a day long training workshop, tailored to the needs of historic preservation commission members, planning staff and elected officials. A preservation commission is most effective when its work is a part of the larger local planning process.
CAMP covers the essential elements of preservation planning and how to make your preservation plan a part of the larger local plan not an addition to it. Additional exercises assist new design reviewers, as well as seasoned professionals, to practice project review. Attendees will also learn about identifying and designating historic resources by conducting historic resource survey. The session provides opportunities to learn from instructors as well as from each other in a lively and fun format.
