"The purpose of the Historic Preservation Plan is to identify and schedule a program of projects to preserve our significant historic resources and to define the public role in this endeavor. As such, the Plan becomes a guideline for action, with projects in subsequent years building upon the information and programs developed in earlier years. ... On January 12, 1993, the Historic Preservation Plan was approved by City Council and adopted, by reference, as a part of the City's Comprehensive Plan."--Page 7.
