PropertiesJoin CPF for a two-part intermediate-level se minar focusing on the Secretary of Interior Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties.The Secretary of the Interior's Standards (SOIS) are among the most widely used preservation tools in the United States\, infor ming local project review\, Mills Act agreements\, federal and state incen tive programs\, environmental review\, and preservation planning efforts. Yet many local government staff and commissioners continue to struggle wit h how the Standards should be interpreted and applied in real-world decisi on-making.This two-part bootcamp is designed specifically for local govern ment decision-makers responsible for reviewing projects affecting historic resources. Moving beyond a basic introduction\, the program explores how the Standards function as a practical framework for evaluating projects\, balancing competing objectives\, guiding applicants\, and making consisten t and defensible decisions.Through focused instruction\, case studies\, an d interactive polling exercises\, participants will examine common preserv ation challenges including additions and new construction\, accessibility improvements\, energy-efficiency upgrades\, adaptive reuse projects\, and projects that do not fully meet the Standards. The program will also explo re the relationship between the Standards\, local preservation review\, an d California's evolving regulatory landscape\, including Objective Design Standards and recent housing legislation.By the end of the bootcamp\, part icipants will be better equipped to interpret the Standards\, evaluate com plex projects\, write defensible findings\, and confidently navigate the g ray areas that often arise in historic preservation review.Part 1: Underst anding the Standards in Real ProjectsTuesday\, Sept. 15 2026 | 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM     Introduction: 10:00 AM – 10:15 AM 1.
