    Summary

    The Certified Local Government (CLG) program is designed to provide an opportunity for local governments to become more directly involved in identifying, evaluating, protecting, promoting and enhancing the educational and economic value of historic resources at the local level. Created in 1980 through amendments to the National Historic Preservation Act, the CLG program requires that each State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) designate at least 10 percent of its annual Historic Preservation Fund allocation from the Department of the Interior to Certified Local Government communities. In Vermont, the SHPO is the Vermont Division for Historic Preservation (VDHP), located in the Department of Housing and Community Development, in the Agency of Commerce and Community Development.

    Additional Information

    A local government wishing to become a CLG must fulfill certain requirements indicating its commitment to local preservation. One requirement is the establishment of a local Historic Preservation Review commission. The local government appoints to the commission professional and lay members with varied expertise and interest related to historic preservation. As the advisory body to the legislative body and planning commission, the historic preservation commission becomes the coordinating body for community preservation activities. It prepares reports on National Register eligible properties, sponsors public information programs on historic preservation, and prepares applications for CLG grants, if the community chooses to apply for grant funds. VDHP provides training for the CLG commission on their CLG responsibilities and preservation topics in general.
