The Town of Clarkdale will be establishing a Historic Preservation Commission, which is the last step in gaining Certified Local Government status with the State Historic Preservation Office.  This commission will enable the town of Clarkdale to apply for grants to preserve historic structures, including our museum building. CHSM will draft and present a Proclamation supporting the establishment of a Historical Preservation Commission to the Town Council meeting on July 28th.  

The commission must be composed of at least five members, all of whom have a demonstrated interest, experience, or knowledge in at least one of the following; history, architectural history, architecture, historic interiors, historic architecture, planning archaeology, historic archaeology, real estate, historic preservation law, or other historic preservation related field.

Applications for the Historical Preservation Commission are being accepted by the town and may be found on the Town website.  https://www.clarkdale.az.gov
