 The
City of Raleigh Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Department is holding
a series of public meetings to present proposed strategic plan recommendations
for the Historic Resources and Museum Program. The HRM Program manages
facilities, programs, and operations at the Borden Building, John Chavis
Memorial Park Attractions, the City of Raleigh (COR) Museum, Fred Fletcher
Amphitheater and Stone Circle at Fletcher Park, the Latta House and University
Site Park, Moore Square, Mordecai Historic Park, the Pope House Museum, Pullen
Park Attractions, the Historic Raleigh Trolleys, and the Tucker House.
Additionally, the HRM Program manages a material culture artifact collection
consisting of more than 20,000 fine and decorative historic objects.
The
purpose of the HRM Program Strategic Plan is to set strategic goals for
Historic Resources and Museum Program, to identify unique characters and
strengths of Raleigh’s heritage ecosystem, and how best to integrate the Parks,
Recreation and Cultural Resources System Plan as well as the City of Raleigh
Strategic Plan. The HRM Program and our design consultant, HR&A, have
completed a set of draft recommendations. The public meeting will begin with a
short presentation after which the design consultant and City staff will be on
hand to answer questions and receive comments from the surrounding community.
All are encouraged to attend.
