Draft Plan Available for Comment - Update #14
Draft Plan is Available
Yes! After 18 months of public engagement, the Draft Comprehensive Plan is available for review at the Imagine Madison Website [1]. You can also review a hard copy at any Madison Public Library and the Madison Planning Division offices at 126 South Hamilton Street.
So what does it say? Here’s a short list of the key recommendations from the Plan:
- More housing choices
- Transit Improvements
- Family-Supporting Jobs
- Majority of growth as infill or redevelopment
The ever-popular side-by-side Generalized Future Land Use Map comparison tool [2] has been updated to reflect the Plan Commission’s continued review of the map.
How to Comment on the Plan
As a community, we’ve been working to create this plan, but we’re not done yet. We need your comments to complete this effort. There are several ways to provide comments.
-
Provide your comments through CiviComment [3]. You can also see other reviewers’ comments.
-
Email the Imagine Madison team at imaginemadison@cityofmadison.com [4]
-
Attend the June 4 Plan Commission Comprehensive Plan Public Hearing or any one of the many presentations at various City boards, committees, and commissions. You can see our full schedule of meetings on our Events [5] page.
-
Whatever your preferred method of reviewing and commenting on the plan, please provide your comments before the June 4 Plan Commission meeting.
How Comments will be Reviewed
We’ll receive many comments from the public, as well as from City boards, committees, and commissions. These comments will be reviewed by the Plan Commission, the City body in control of the Comprehensive Plan update. The Plan Commission will make a recommendation to the Madison Common Council. The Common Council will then review and consider adoption of the Plan.
Thank you to the more than 15,000 participants for making Imagine Madison such a valuable process.
Brian, Kirstie, and the Imagine Madison Team
