Welcome back...
Now... on with the countdown.
Comin' in at unlucky Number 13...
Historic Lands and Buildings.
The Language
"Identify and encourage the preservation of lands, sites, and structures, that have historical or archaeological significance."
The Score
Priority Index: 23.4
The Reason
This goal isn't going to come into play in all jurisdictions, however in those jurisdictions where it is in play, it will directly affect every local citizen. Yeah, that's right. More that resource lands.
Like #14 before it, this goal is conspicuously lacking in imperative language. The word "encourage" is what saps this goal of most of its claim to priority.
This one made me sad.
Next on our countdown, number 12. What will it be? Stay tuned...
