Our Mission: The Oak City Preservation Alliance is a group of Raleigh citizens dedicated to preserving the integrity of what makes Raleigh’s historic neighborhoods some of the most sought after places to live and visit in the country. Our Position: The Oak City Preservation Alliance rolls into one organization several important roles previously not fully met in Raleigh: - Advocating for the preservation of historic neighborhoods and structures with an important heritage - Contributing our voice to the history and philosophy of preservation efforts - Serving as an ombudsman with city officials, residents, developers and others to ensure that the established rules for historic preservation are taken seriously and fairly executed We have been invited to participate in an event sponsored by The Raleigh Public Record on June 18, from 5:30pm to 7:00pm, that will be held at Tir Na Nog Restaurant in Downtown Raleigh. The format is a panel discussion with time for questions and answers. The panel will be broad based and include City Planning, pro modernist, development and historic preservation perspectives. We invite all of you to attend to support our philosophy.
