<p class=MsoNormal>The Historic Preservation League of Oregon (HPLO) is expanding
its advocacy outreach in 2011 and invites you to participate in any of these initiatives:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Advocacy Committee</b> – working with the HPLO
Regional Advisors, tracks and responds to local preservation opportunities
around the state. Activities include research, policy recommendations,
drafting testimony or letters of support, raising local support through
publicity, and working with state legislators. Meets quarterly or as
needed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Most Endangered Places Task Force</b> – spotlights
the most significant at-risk properties across Oregon and supports their
preservation and reuse. Activities include soliciting nominations, review
and selection, publicity, and follow-up support. Meets 2<sup>nd</sup> Monday
of each month.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Preservation Roundtable </b>– convenes a forum of various
perspectives to identify solutions to a preservation challenge.
Activities include identifying an annual topic, organizing and publicizing
Roundtable event(s), researching and vetting solutions, and publication of a
Special Report. In 2011, we’ll be zeroing in on some of the
recommendations - such as infill design standards - from 2010’s Special
Report (find a copy on our website.) Meeting dates as needed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>Those
outside the Portland area can easily participate by conference call, so don’t
let distance deter you! In addition to volunteers with preservation, architectural,
or planning backgrounds we’d love to have participants with development, tribal,
agricultural/rural, and hand's on rehab expertise.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>In addition to advocacy there are other volunteer
opportunities with the HPLO. Please click through to a sign-up sheet on
