Downtown Plan
What is it?
The Downtown Plan will provide recommendations on development, land use, activities and transportation infrastructure specific to downtown Madison as it connects to the rest of the city. The City of Madison details the process and timeline at the City of Madison Downtown Plan website.
Why is it Important?
The Downtown Plan is a legal document that will provide a definitive guideline for the future land use and development of downtown Madison. The City of Madison Common Council and the Planning Department will refer to the plan when making decisions on development projects in the downtown. The Downtown Plan also effects the Zoning Code for the Isthmus.
What is DMI's Role?
DMI has and continues to be very involved working with city staff, officials, downtown professionals and committee members to assist with the work of the downtown plan. Specifically, DMI has worked with a group of Downtown Real Estate Professionals (DTREP) and Downtown Design Professionals (DDP) to assess the downtown in terms of design, density, flow and process, to make recommendations to the city of Madison for the final Plan. The DMI Economic Development committee will continue to weigh in on the Downtown Plan until a final draft has been approved by the City of Madison Common Council.
