Here at the Bosco-Milligan Foundation, we frequently get requests for assistance from members and friends throughout Clackamas County. While we all know that historic preservation crosses all geographic boundaries, our resources have been limited to providing technical assistance within the Portland city limits. Thanks to our Partners in the Field matching grant from the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and after a year of practicing advocacy, we are ready to expand into Clackamas County – both incorporated cities and unincorporated areas. While “rules and regulations” may govern preservation differently in various jurisdictions, public interest in preserving our building heritage and community character is shared by all. 

We have learned that the best way to focus our limited resources and to truly be effective, we need to collectively determine the preservation needs throughout Clackamas County. With that objective, we invite you to attend one of the two meetings scheduled – in Oregon City on March 10th, or in the city of Sandy, on March 16th. Both evening meetings will feature a workshop format for participants to discuss and respond to a Needs assessment questionnaire – where you can tell us as much as you like about the preservation concerns in your neck of the woods.
