Milwaukee's Comprehensive Plan consists of a
Citywide Policy Plan and
Area Plans.
(The City also prepares other plans and
studies
which guide development in individual neighborhoods; these documents
include neighborhood redevelopment and action plans.)
When completed by 2010, the
Comprehensive Plan will become the cornerstone of all local
land use decisions.
This
website provides current information on the planning process, the status of
Citywide and
Area Plans, and opportunities for
public participation.
The Comprehensive Plan
is guided by the
City of Milwaukee's commitment to:
| · |
Maintain a
unique sense of community and place; |
| ·
|
Promote an
economic climate that supports job creation; |
| ·
|
Preserve and
enhance valuable natural and cultural resources; |
| ·
|
Equitably
distribute the costs and benefits of development; |
| · |
Expand the
range of transportation, employment, and housing choices in a fiscally
responsible manner; |
| ·
|
Value
long-range, regional considerations of sustainability over short-term,
incremental, geographically-isolated actions; and |
| ·
|
Promote public
health and healthy communities. |
