Webinar: Marquette County 2040 Master Plan
Date and Time
Wednesday Jul 21, 2021
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM EDT
Description
Marquette County has released a draft of the 2040 Master Plan, which is available for public review! The draft 2040 Master Plan is the result of more than two years of work by Marquette County Planning Division staff and the Marquette County Planning Commission. It incorporates feedback from over 3,000 Marquette County residents who responded to the Master Plan Community Survey, the local planning bodies of every municipality in Marquette County, and a diverse array of community stakeholders from both the public and private sectors.
During this webinar attendees can expect a review of the plan and website.
The 2040 Master Plan is the first comprehensive update to the County’s master plan since 1982, and its objective is to help local leaders and community members answer the following question: What do we want Marquette County to be like in 2040? As such, the 2040 Master Plan will guide public policy in Marquette County for the next two decades. For planning purposes, the 2040 Master Plan divides Marquette County into four planning regions, each with their own unique characteristics, challenges, and opportunities. The 2040 Master Plan also identifies strategies for each region which, if implemented, will allow Marquette County to achieve the vision and goals for 2040 that are identified in the Plan.
The draft 2040 Master Plan, strategies, and an interactive online data dashboard can be found at www.mqtcoplan.org. The Marquette County Planning Commission will review all comments received, hold a public hearing at the close of the review period on August 4, 2021, and vote on final approval of the 2040 Master Plan thereafter. The County Planning Division welcomes public feedback.
