The Madison Common Council approved the Lake Monona Waterfront master plan, the city of Madison reports. The master plan is the result of decades of public advocacy and support. It seeks to transform the Lake Monona shore into a welcoming, environmentally-focused lakeshore. The Council’s adoption of the master plan marks a major milestone in realizing the new vision.
With the support of the Friends of Nolen Waterfront, a private, nonprofit advocacy group, Madison Parks anticipates the first phase of implementation to focus on the community causeway between Monona Bay and Lake Monona. Plan implementation will depend on securing support from outside funding, including federal, state, and private contributions.Â
Further community engagement will occur during the design development of the community causeway. Click here to learn more.
