We provide technical assistance for rehabilitation and restoration and maintain data about historic places in Augusta and Richmond County. We educate the public about the importance of historic preservation through programs, publications and public tours. We identify and nominate significant properties to the National Register of Historic Places and encourage designation of historic properties and districts under the local historic preservation ordinance.
