Historic Preservation Program

Madison's local preservation program is administered by the Madison Historic Preservation Commission (HPC), established in 1987.  This dedicated volunteer board protects the community's wealth of historic resources, first listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.  Because of the work of the HPC, Madison also qualifies as a Certified Local Government (CLG) community.  In addition, the board serves as the Design Committee for the Madison Main Street Program.  This civic board also works cooperatively to sponsor community preservation with local non-profits:  Morgan County Historical Society, Morgan County Landmarks Society, Madison-Morgan Cultural Center, and Madison-Morgan African-American Museum.
