Sinopsis

Excerpt from Conserving Richmond's Battlefields: A Collaborative Project Among Concerned Citizens; Local Planning, Preservation and Promotion Groups; Chesterfield, Hanover and Henrico Counties; The City of Richmond; The Commonwealth of Virginia; And the National Park Service

With community guidance and review, thirty-two battlefield locations were identified and their condition assessed. During extensive public discussion of local concerns, issues, and goals, and based on a thorough resource evaluation, a collaborative approach to battlefield conservation surfaced. It is called the richmond CIVIL war heritage initiative. The goal is to conserve, through Cooperative private and public action, a necklace of Civil War battlefields from the North Anna River to Petersburg. These battlefields would be strung with clusters of high-quality heritage interpretive sites, recreation opportunities and related visitor services. The main elements in this approach include: A Heritage Council of community representatives that coordinates battlefield conservation, interpretation and promotion activities.

A conservation incentive program for landowners and local governments within the battlefield settings that includes a formal recognition of the battlefield settings, a development review process that is responsive to historic values, landowner incentivesfor voluntary conservation (i.e. Resource identification, site planning assistance or project review) and conservation of critical community and battlefield values.
