A comprehensive plan is a local government’s guide to physical, social, and economic development. It provides a rational basis for local land use decisions with a 20-year vision for future planning and community decisions. The Wisconsin Comprehensive Planning Law (s. 66.1001 Wis. Stats.) requires public participation at the local level in deciding a collective vision for the community’s future, which is outlined in this Plan’s goals, objectives, policies, and Future Land Use map. Comprehensive plans must be updated no less than every 10 years.
At the end of most chapters is first, a list of programs that a community may use to implement that chapter, followed by a set of goals, objectives, and policies related to that chapter. The goals, objectives, and policies were initially created by the City’s Plan Commission during the planning process, and are used to guide future actions of the City over the planning period. Changes to these goals, objectives, and policies may be made through the amendment process for this plan.
