Muncie Historic Preservation Plan

“In 2015, the City of Muncie Historic Preservation and Rehabilitation Commission (MHPRC) initiated a partnership with the Graduate Program in Historic Preservation in the College of Architecture and Planning at Ball State University to develop a comprehensive and citywide Historic Preservation Plan. The Plan’s purpose was to review the City’s historic preservation program and recommend action steps to strenthen and prioritize the program. Through a series of community meetings, a public input survey, studying best practices in other cities, and utilizing an updated historic resource survey, the Ball State students developed a plan that was then further edited by the MHPRC to meet Muncie’s needs.”
