Village Comprehensive Planning Feedback
The Village has adopted a comprehensive plan that
satisfies the State’s “Smart Growth” Law and, more
importantly, helps guide Greendale into the future. A
Comprehensive Plan is a very important document that
establishes a community vision, lays out future land
use, and identifies issues and opportunities for the
future of Greendale.
According to s. 66.1001, Wis. Stats., beginning on January 1, 2010, if a town, village, city, or county engages in official mapping, subdivision regulation, or zoning, those actions must be consistent with that community's comprehensive plan. The Wisconsin Comprehensive Planning Law (s. 66.1001) does not mandate how a local community should grow, rather it requires public participation at the local level in deciding how a community wants to look and be in the future.
While a local government may choose to include additional elements, a comprehensive plan must include AT LEAST all of the below nine elements as defined by the Comprehensive Planning Law.
• Issues and Opportunities
• Housing
• Transportation
• Utilities and Community Facilities
• Agricultural, Natural and Cultural Resources
• Economic Development
• Intergovernmental Cooperation
• Land Use
• Implementation
