Village of Rib Mountain County Highway NN Study & Comprehensive Plan 2024-2025

In July 2023, the community of Rib Mountain transitioned from a Town to a Village and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources adopted its new Rib Mountain State Park Master Plan. As a result of these changes, NCWRPC will be completing a County Highway NN corridor study with public engagement, followed by an updated Comprehensive Plan project.

A Comprehensive Plan is guides development in the Village over the next 10 to 20 years. It provides the vision and direction for natural resource protection, housing and economic development, transportation and community facilities, land use, intergovernmental relations, and other factors that together form the community’s future. The Comprehensive Plan is used by elected officials, residents, and business owners and it includes a series of goals, objectives, and policies prepared to meet the State Statute definition of a comprehensive plan defined in Section 66.1001.
