General Management Plan/Development Concept Plan. Jimmy Carter National HistoricSite and Preservation District

摘要

The Jimmy Carter National Historic Site and Preservation District was establishedby Congress in 1987 by Public Law 100-206. The historic site consists of the Plains railroad depot, Jimmy Carter's boyhood home, Plains High School, the Carter compound (home, adjacent lot, and Secret Service headquarters), and 100 feet of scenic easements along both sides of Old Plains Highway (U.S. 280) west of Plains. As required by P.L. 100-206, the National Park Service has prepared this general management plan to guide administration and development of the park while protecting the park's natural and cultural resources and providing opportunities for visitors to understand, enjoy, and appreciate the stories the park was established to tell--the growth and development of two people in a small southern town who became international figures.
