Major Benefits of Historical Districts
The purpose of a historical district is to empower local decision-making, maintain the appearance of key structures, and preserve the integrity of a specified area.

The Florida Division of Historical Resources is responsible for state policy and programs that assist local governments in securing grants and funding to preserve important historical areas and properties.
