The 30-year Guideline

The MOA Historic Preservation Committee selected a 30-year guideline for the Local Landmark Ordinance while the National Register of Historic Places and Alaska Landmark Registry utilize a 50-year guideline. The 30-year guideline requires places and spaces of historical significance to be at least 30-years old to be nominated for listing in the MOA registry. If you’re wondering why the guideline is 30 years rather than 50, the articles and documents below will shed some light on the decision-making process: 

 

  1. 50 Years Reconsidered
  2. The Fifty Year Stumbling Block
  3. Age Value and the 50-year Rule
  4. Listed, Obliterated or Status Unknown: An Analysis of the 5-Year Rule
  5. “Of Exceptional Importance”: The Origins of the “Fifty-Year Rule” in Historic Preservation
