2035 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

Wisconsin State Statutes, Section 66.1001 sets the rules for communities regulating land use to adopt a comprehensive plan and update it every 10 years.  Working with the local jurisdictions, the 2035 Comprehensive Plan was adopted by Walworth County in 2019.  Given that there had not been significant changes to the character of the community, population growth and economic opportunities, the decision was made not to modify goals and objectives in the 2035 plan.

The plan was updated following review and documented new county and regional plans that have been adopted that may impact the County's land use plan map to reflect updated information.  The update also updated the plan implementation element of the 2035 Plan.
