• <br /> 8 <br /> 6. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: (attach extra sheet, if necessary). <br /> Since 1991, Orange County has received three Survey and Planning grants to complete <br /> a county-wide survey of historic architecture and archaeological sites. The 1993 <br /> grant includes funds for preparation of a manuscript for the inventory. The County now <br /> seeks to publish the inventory of approximately 750 properties, in addition to archae- <br /> ological sites now being surveyed. The publication will also include historic properties <br /> surveyed by the Towns of Chapel Hill, Carrboro, Hillsborough, and Mebane. <br /> The publication will feature a description of the history of Orange County, chapters <br /> on architecture and archaeology with individual entries for properties and sites <br /> listed during the survey. Text will be supplemented with black and white photographs . <br /> 7. JUSTIFICATION OF PROJECT: Explain briefly how this project relates to the <br /> educational goals of your organization. <br /> Publication of the Orange County inventory will produce a principal educational <br /> tool. It will be the method by which the information gathered during the survey of <br /> historic architecture and archaeological sites will be communicated to the public . <br /> Without the inventory publication, the survey would only be a set of files in the <br /> Planning Department. The publication will fulfill the purpose of the survey, to <br /> inform Orange County residents and visitors of the County's cultural resources. <br /> Officer of Sponsoring Organization <br /> Title Date <br /> Return to: Jo Ann Williford, Grants Administrator <br /> 109 E.
