Community Partnering

The Certified Local Government (CLG) program provides a link between a community's preservation needs and the State Historic Preservation Office state and federal programs.

A city, county, town, or village can participate in the CLG program after the Bureau certifies that the local government has passed appropriate preservation legislation and appointed a review commission that meets state and federal standards. There are more than 30 CLG communities across New York that receive a wide range of special services, including grants, legal and technical assistance and training.

By becoming a CLG, a community can strengthen its ability to make decisions about local planning and activities.
