![]() | 2013 REPORT ON STATE AGENCY PERFORMANCE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE STATE HISTORIC PRESERVATION ACT INTRODUCTION Arizona Revised Statutes §41-861 through §41-864 (or the State Historic Preservation Act) direct state agencies to: preserve historic properties under their ownership or control; consider the use of historic properties for agency responsibilities; establish[...]locate, inventory, and nominate properties to the Arizona Register of Historic Places; insure that properties are not destroyed or substantially altered by state action or assistance; make appropriate documentation in accordance with State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) standards if a property is to be destroyed[...]mment from the SHPO on agency plans. The terms “historic property” or “historic properties,” as cited within the State Historic Preservation Act, refer to properties that are eligible for, or listed on, the Arizona Register of Historic Places. This report provides a summary of the performance of state agencies in compliance with these state statutes. The information provided was compiled f[...]and when and why agencies are not able to address historic preservation needs (as related to their agency’s plans and actions) in our state.

A total of 52% (n=11) of the respondents indicated that historic preservation was included in agency policies, procedures, or regulations, and 33% (n=7) stated that they had incorporated historic preservationpreservation planning is only applicable to them if they manage or own historic period properties, particularly historic buildings; however, the State Historic Preservation Act requires that they consider whether any of th[...]ing approvals, etc.) have the potential to impact historic properties of any kind. There seems to be a general misperception that “historic property” only refers to buildings, structures, etc. that date from the historic period; when, in reality, this term refers to any[...]building that is eligible for, or listed on, the Arizona Register of Historic Places. Agencies were asked if they had designated an employee to coordinate the agency’s historic preservation responsibilities. Responses (Appendix C, Table 2)[...]edicated staff person to oversee their agency’s historic preservation requirements. Among agencies that had designated a historic preservation coordinator, only 27% (n=4) indicated that the employee was committed full time to preservation activities.
