As statements of public policy in historic preservation, the HPP serves as a general-level guide for decision-making throughout the state, rather than as compilation of all that is known about the state's cultural resources. The Arizona HPP is important in: o Identifying current and emerging historic preservation issues throughout the state; o Establishing the vision, mission, and priorities for the SHPO; o Identifying preservation goals for integrating historic preservation into broader planning and decision-making at local, regional, and state levels; and o Identifying preservation partners and how their contributions are needed[...]he HPP’s objectives, as well as compliance with state and federal historic preservation laws.
