The study, conducted through public meetings and property owner interviews beginning in April 2019, aimed to understand what makes the township a community and identify ways to preserve its unique character, moving beyond standard individual building documentation to examine the broader historical context and cultural landscape. The survey revealed that preservation in this rural community differs from typical approaches, characterized by incremental repairs and changes made by multi-generational farming families rather than new construction, and emphasizes the importance of understanding the community's shared values and long-standing traditions.
