The CLG program is a partnership between local, state and national governments focused on promoting historic preservation. It is administered by the National Park Service and the North Dakota State Historic Preservation Office. The Dickinson Historic Preservation Commission is the local partner designated to implement CLG business on behalf of the City of Dickinson.
