The Tucson Historic Preservation Office works closely with City departments to assess, document, and appropriately treat significant archaeological sites and historic buildings affected by City projects. It provides training and information on historic preservation laws, compliance procedures, rehabilitation standards, and financial incentives, and it conducts educational outreach to strengthen community appreciation of Tucson’s rich heritage and historic resources. The Tucson Historic Preservation Office also works with the Tucson-Pima County Historical Commission to review proposed exterior alterations to historic buildings, assists with National Register nominations for neighborhoods and property owners that meet certain criteria, and jointly administers Pima County Historic Preservation Bond projects within the City.
