Strategic Plan

A strategic plan is a road map to lead an organization from where it currently is to where it wants to be over a period of several years. Our strategic plan provides just such a road map for the Preservation Foundation for the five year period from July 2010 to June 2015.

The plan is the result of discussions and deliberations of the Foundation's Board of Directors and staff during the spring of 2010. It was adopted on June 8, 2010.

Our Mission

The Saratoga Springs Preservation Foundation promotes preservation and enhancement of the architectural, cultural and landscaped heritage of Saratoga Springs.

Our Strategic Goals

We will become a financially sound and sustainable organization.

We will be a preservation resource and provide value to our members and the community in order to retain and grow our membership. Our members will become our ambassadors.

We will continue to be an advocate for preservation of Saratoga Springs' historic resources and of good preservation practices.

We will engage in "bricks and mortar" preservation activities in order to demonstrate the value of historic preservation in enhancing our City and its historic structures and neighborhoods.

We will market our organization to be seen as a positive force in the community - economically, socially, aesthetically, and culturally.

We will staff our organization to achieve our mission and goals, within available resources.

Our Board will actively fulfill its fiduciary responsibilities and contribute to achievement of the organization's Mission and Strategic Plan.
