Preservation Ohio, a statewide organization that works to preserve a sense of past and place in Ohio's downtowns, neighborhoods, and communities, has released some of the results of its 2009 fall survey.
Among the findings:
- A lack of awareness of the benefits of historic preservation is considered the greatest threat to historic preservation and neighborhood revitalization in Ohio.
- Revitalization of Ohio downtowns was the area of preservation of most interest to respondents.
- Information on funding options is the primary service that a statewide preservation organization needs to address.
The majority of the more than 100 respondents were from northeast Ohio, with southwest Ohio making up 20 percent. Three-quarters of respondents were not members of Preservation Ohio or the Ohio Preservation Alliance.
