Hanbury Preservation Consulting was hired by the city of Fayetteville, North Carolina to conduct a review and assessment of its local historic preservation program. The project was designed to evaluate several specific aspects of the program including composition and operations of its local preservation commission, aspects of current historic designations, coordination of the local ordinance and its implementation, potential design guidelines revisions, and best practices from other commissions for communication and outreach. The project resulted in a report and presentations to the city council and preservation commission.
