Research notes
Federal conflict check flagged because §106 consultation interleaves federal and state SHPO authority. §253.408 itself does NOT preempt local historic-preservation ordinances; cities adopt independent local historic-preservation commissions under their Chapter 89 / charter authority and overlay districts (e.g., Soulard, Lafayette Square, Central West End in St. Louis; Westport, 18th & Vine, Country Club Plaza in Kansas City; Branson's Historic Downtown). The Missouri State Historic Tax Credit is one of the most-used in the nation per capita and structurally drives mid-rise adaptive reuse in both major metros. The Kansas City Stockyards Historic Area (West Bottoms) and Branson's entertainment district (76 Country Music Boulevard / Highway 76 'The Strip') often layer National Register designation with local historic-overlay zoning — captured in the trigger predicate.
