Now the Madison community can speak out.
Mayor Dave Cieslewicz and city planning staff Thursday unveiled a 600-page draft comprehensive plan for the next two decades designed to preserve the best of the inner city, redevelop blighted lots and dated strip malls and promote “new urbanist” neighborhoods on the city’s outskirts.
“We have an opportunity here in the city of Madison to build something that is really special,” Cieslewicz told about 100 people gathered for the event at Monona Terrace.
