Book excerpt: This study advocates the following measures to address these problems: planning objectives that integrate a historic preservation element into the local emergency management plan, the use of tools to identify and assess risk to historic resources, mitigation methods for building materials in the context of the effects of a tropical cyclone event, enactment of the responsibilities of a historic preservation coordinator, and the application of design criteria to evaluate the compatibility of new development in the historic district. The combination of the planning initiatives results in an interdisciplinary program of disaster management that expands the scope of traditional disaster planning methods. Insufficient planning for a tropical cyclone event can lead to avoidable loss of historic fabric. These disasters are predictable in terms of their nature and ability to have a devastatingly widespread impact, which previous hurricane seasons have exhibited. This study concludes that adopting planning initiatives to reconcile historic preservation with diverse mitigation opportunities for a tropical cyclone event will benefit preservation of the historic context in Cedar Key, Florida. The initiatives recommended in this study can serve as a template for other similarly vulnerable areas by recognizing a method to integrate historic preservation and local emergency management procedures.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disaster preparedness plans play a significant role in protecting historic structures during a hurricane situation. In recent years an increasing number of hurricanes and tropical storms hit Florida, as well as the United States' Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. During the past five years storms such as Katrina and Ivan decimated coastal cities and towns. Such destruction cost people their livelihoods, their homes, and, in the worst cases, their lives. In the museum and historic preservation communities, the toll of these storms has been particularly significant. As a result of hurricanes, every state along the eastern coast from Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, to Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina lost historical structures. Informal accounts suggested that museum size and funding had a major impact on hurricane disaster preparedness procedures that each institution employs. This research set out to discover how size variables influenced the disaster preparedness plans of museums and to propose common guidelines that could be used for historic house museums of a variety of sizes.
