Community Activism

The Enterprise Preservation Society has emerged as the leading force for recognition and preservation of the community and its history. Due to the hard work and cooperation of its members and County staff, the Enterprise Area Protection Plan was implemented in 2004, a first step toward the dream of preserving the community as a historic village.
