Area Plans guide changes that occur over time to the physical aspects of our community, such as land use, housing, transit, streets, bike paths, and other community facilities. They are steered by overarching City policies and feedback from stakeholders.
The Southeast Area is approximately 7,000 acres (10.9 square miles) and is generally bounded by the State Highway 30 to the north, Interstate 90 to the east, City of Monona to the west, and Siggelkow Road / Village of McFarland to the South. See map below. Additional background maps can be found under the Project Resources section.
The City invites residents, community organizations, businesses, and other stakeholders to share feedback about the future of their neighborhoods. Keep up to date on events and ways to participate by subscribing to the email list.
