Chester County Atlas Project |
 Wise Preservation Planning is pleased to announce that we have been retained by Schuylkill Township to complete its municipal element of the Chester County Atlas Project. When completed this spring, Wise will have examined and classified over 850 properties in the township!
This comes on the heels of surveying and documenting 223 properties containing the township’s oldest resources, first surveyed in 1982. The 2011 inventory is the basis for the township’s revised historic resource protection zoning article. Wise, along with municipal planner David Sweet, drafted this ordinance language; it was adopted by the municipality in January, 2012.
The Chester County Atlas Project is an ongoing effort on behalf of Chester County to survey, inventory and map all properties in the county having resources 50 years and older. Wise has completed seven Atlas projects, and helped develop its resource classification standards.
