The Georgia Department of Community Affairs Historic Preservation division announced on Monday, July 29, 2024, that Douglas is one of 8 Certified Local Government (CLG) Authorities in Georgia. Douglas will receive $12,009 to help support the historic resource survey for the Downtown Douglas Historic District.

The Historic Preservation Division of the Georgia Department of Community Affairs administers these grants annually, facilitating historic preservation initiatives like historic resource and archaeological surveys, outreach efforts, brick-and-mortar projects, design guidelines, and publications. Educational, promotional, and tourism activities are also eligible uses for this grant.

“The work proposed by this year’s grant recipients supports their ongoing efforts to carry their histories into the future,” Flood said. “The CLG program provides support to communities as they diligently preserve their historic resources, which in turn promotes economic development and fosters local pride. Our CLG partners are continuing the initiative to protect their built heritage, preserving that which makes their cities, counties, and Georgia truly special.”

For more information on the historic resource survey for downtown, please contact Georgia Henderson, Douglas Community Development Director at (912) 383-0277. For information on the Historic Preservation Fund grant program, contact hpgrants@dca.ga.gov.
