Vilas County Comprehensive Plan 2009

In 1999, the Governor signed into law Wisconsin Act 9, the Budget Bill, containing substantial revisions of existing planning related statutes and established the current comprehensive planning law (§66.1001 WI Stats.). Basically the law provides a definition of a plan, and should address demographic trends, natural resources, housing, transportation, economic development, and land use, among others. In addition, the law requires consistency between the local plan and local implementation tools of official mapping, subdivision ordinances and zoning ordinances; and requires public participation. Most important, is that it maintains that the process be locally driven so all local units of government decide their own future.

Citizens of the town and the Town Board and its Plan Commission can draw from the information in the Plan to shape the future development of the community and set realistic goals in planning decisions. What the town’s future will look like remains the determination of its citizenry. The Plan serves as a database and guide for this process.

City of Rhinelander Waterfront Redevelopment Plan – 2009

The waterfront has always played a significant role in the City of Rhinelander. In the 1870’s, explorers traveled up the Wisconsin River to the confluence of the Wisconsin and Pelican Rivers in search of timber, and found an ideal location for what would eventually become the City of Rhinelander. Since then the river has been used as a mode of transportation, for commerce and for recreation. Development patterns along the river, particularly in the downtown area, reflect the important role the river has played in commerce. Today, however, the river’s role in commerce has diminished to some degree and the need to explore new ways to best utilize the riverfront are necessary.
