numerous
historic Idaho buildings. Rehabilitation projects including the

Planmakers prepared a study on Idaho's commemoration of the Lewis and Clark Expedition Bicentennial for the Governor's Executive Committee. A similar study for Idaho's commemoration of the Oregon Trail Sesquicentennial outlined numerous trail and interpretive improvements for Southern Idaho. Plans have been implemented for historic sites including the Rock Creek Station and Stricker Homesite Master Plan, and the Chesterfield Conservation Plan. Other work includes preparing design guidelines for commercial and residential historic districts.
