  • Re: Crossroads Funding

    We are making some progress on these two questions. After a meeting with the Stevens County Commissioners and Auditor Tim Gray on Monday Feb. 25th, we have an arrangement with the county to put any money contributed to Preserve America into the General Fund.

The logical route for private contributions to the Preserve America Crossroads project...

  • Old buildings and the DAHP

    I spent hours on the phone Thursday talking to Greg Griffith at the Washington State Department of Archeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP) and Leslie Jones at TEDD. At usual, the to-do list is longer than the original question list. Nevertheless I feel like a status report is in order. A note on...

  • Section 106 Money

    On the Preserve America Website, http://www.preserveamerica.gov/index.html , there are some articles on Secion 106 (of either the National Historic Preservation Act or the Code of Federal Regulations - I couldn't tell).
