PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE

TOWN OF LAWRENCE

Town Comprehensive Plan

A public hearing will be conducted on Tuesday, June 21, 2005 at the Town of Lawrence Town Hall, 2595 French Road, De Pere, WI at 6:30PM to offer the citizens of Lawrence an opportunity to review and comment on a new Town Comprehensive Plan.

The future course of development for the Town of Lawrence is contained in the Comprehensive Plan. This long-range guide brings together many elements of the Town—coordinating them to maintain an environment that is attractive, efficient, and pleasing to their citizens. Each element sets a desired development direction consistent with the goals and policies that have been established to maintain and enhance the quality of the community desired by citizens and officials.

The Comprehensive Plan is general in nature, allowing for flexibility. It is comprehensive because it considers many elements and their inherent relationship with each other. The plan is properly balanced and blended, giving emphasis to those characteristics desired.

The plan has evolved through a careful deliberate process of data collection, analysis of potential alternatives and goal formation—each stage being a step toward refining the comprehensive plan. During the course of this process, each point of view has been carefully reviewed for incorporation into the final plan.

The plan will provide a service to the Town of Lawrence if the guidelines promulgated by the plan are followed. The guidelines are important to the Town officials as they evaluate the developmental elements during the course of administering the plan. Understanding by private interest groups, such as developers, will assure conformance with plan objectives.

The plan was prepared with the assistance of Rudd & Associates which may be contacted for additional information regarding the Comprehensive Plan.

Further, copies of the Comprehensive Plan are available for review at the Town Hall.
