Abstract:
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Historic Properties Commission is the historic preservation agency for the City Council of Charlotte and the Board of Commissioners of Mecklenburg County. The commission is empowered to recommend the designation of buildings, structures, sites, and objects as historic property. Such designation, enacted under the police power of the local governing board which exercises zoning control over the subject property, places historic landmarks under land use regulations which protect the property from insensitive alterations and inadvertent demolition. Moreover, the commission has the power to secure the fee simple or lesser interest, and can dispose of the same properties through lease or sale with protective covenants included to ensure their preservation.

Abstract:
The Main Street Program was initiated by the National Trust for Historic Preservation to assist small towns in revitalizing their downtowns. In 1980, the National Main Street Center was established with grants from six federal agencies. That same year the program was expanded to include five towns in each of six states; North Carolina was selected as one of the six states. North Carolina towns chosen to be part of the national program were Tarboro, Washington, Salisbury, New Bern, and Shelby.
