Nick Johnson awarded an MBE

The Objective One Partnership would like to congratulate Nick Johnson, Head of the Cornwall County Council Historic Environment Service, on being awarded an MBE in the latest Honours List.

Mr Johnson has played a key role in the Objective One programme, working closely with the Partnership Office on several important projects including the bid for World Heritage Site inscription which Cornwall and West Devon won last July (2006). He has also been involved with the Cornwall and Scilly Urban Survey (CSUS) – a highly detailed report of 18 towns which is intended to act as a blueprint for planners and developers while protecting the historic environment - and town regeneration projects (Heritage Economic Regeneration Schemes and Townscape Heritage Initiatives) across Cornwall.

Carleen Kelemen, Director of the Objective One Partnership, said: "Congratulations from all at the Partnership Office on receiving this MBE. Nick's untiring dedication, energy and focussed commitment has been an example to all.

"Cornwall's natural and historic built environment are key features of the character of this region. Objective One has set out to preserve and enhance this character while at the same time driving forward economic regeneration. Nick has played an invaluable role in putting together projects that will achieve this."
