In 1978, a County Historical Resources Advisory Board was appointed by the Board of Supervisors to advise the Planning Commission, Parks and Recreation Commission and the Board of Supervisors on matters relating to the protection and preservation of man-made resources of historical, cultural and architectural significance. The jurisdiction of the Board is limited to unincorporated areas.
