Public Policy

Preservation Texas plays an important role in the creation and interpretation of public policy at the local, state, and federal levels that impacts historic preservation. As a unifying voice for the preservation community, Preservation Texas is positioned to bring together disparate interests across the state who are united in the conviction that preservation of the built environment and cultural landscapes enhances our quality of life, sustains traditional building trades supports local economies, and protects places of beauty and significance from permanent damage and destruction.

Providing public policy leadership is one of the five strategic directions outlined in our Strategic Vision, which will guide Preservation Texas’s work over the next decade.
