Your input needed! Next week!
In June of 2008, a series of six public meetings was held at the Overture Center to invite people to share and discuss their ideas for the future of Madison’s Downtown. Many ideas were generated through a series of exercises and small group discussions on each of our downtown planning themes:
– Downtown Living Downtown Working & Business
– Visitors & Tourists Recreation, Culture & Entertainment
– Moving Around Sense of Place(s)
Since that time, visitors to the Downtown Plan Public Information Center (see back of this newsletter for location and hours) have contributed additional comments and
proposals for consideration.
City staff have been utilizing this input, as well as the Comprehensive Plan’s adopted principles and recommendations for Downtown, to develop a series of concepts and general approaches for each of the planning themes.
The November 5th public meeting will be an opportunity for City staff to share these concepts and general approaches to get essential feedback prior to the creation of more detailed alternatives for the Downtown Plan.
