West Washington - West Mifflin (Mifflandia) Area Plan Meeting

As you likely know, the City of Madison’s West Washington - West Mifflin (Mifflandia) Special Area Plan community planning process is well underway. The plan will analyze opportunities within a small area centered upon the 400-500 blocks of West Mifflin Street and West Washington Avenue. The Downtown Plan (adopted in 2012) established a vision for the future transformation of this area, and recommended a more detailed plan for the future.

To accomplish this, City Planning staff is utilizing a public engagement strategy called "Mifflandia" to interact with students, residents, businesses, property owners, and other stakeholders. "Mifflandia" uses a lighthearted name to engage people who may not normally be interested in urban planning, and utilizes unique techniques reach a wide audience.

The result of this engagement will be the development of plan recommendations for more detailed design standards and implementation strategies for the planning areas. This plan will also address land use, preservation, redevelopment opportunities, building and streetscape design, open space, activity nodes and connectivity to the abutting neighborhoods.

Please join us for the final scheduled Mifflandia Plan Public Meeting on Monday, June 3, at the Madison Senior Center, 330 West Mifflin Street. An open house will begin at 6:30 p.m., followed by a 7:00 p.m. presentation by City staff. Previous public meetings occurred on October 29 and March 4.

City planning staff has prepared draft plan recommendations for discussion and review. Tamales from A La Brasa Restaurant, our North Broom Street neighbor, will be served during the meeting.

You may review past information and data resources, as well as sign up for further plan updates, on the project website.
