The
Dane County Parks and Open Space Plan is a countywide comprehensive outdoor recreation and natural resource plan that must be updated every 5 years to maintain eligibility for State Stewardship grant funds. Updates to the plan include identifying recreational needs and significant natural, cultural, and historical resources in the county to be considered for protection. The planning process seeks input from Dane County residents to help guide future park and trail development projects over the next 5 years. Dane County Parks will facilitate public information meetings to explain how citizens and stakeholders can participate in the planning process.
Public Information Meetings:
March 30th 7:00 p.m.
Community Center/Town Hall of Cross Plains
3734 County Road P, Cross Plains, WI 53528
April 5th 7:00 p.m.
Village of Cottage Grove Village Hall
221 E. Cottage Grove Road, Cottage Grove, WI 53527
As an added outreach effort, Dane County Parks has prepared a survey to further explore the overall public awareness of the park system and any improvements that could be made to promote a larger and more diverse group of users.
The survey only takes about 5 minutes to complete and results can be monitored throughout the planning process.
