This plan seeks to establish a comprehensive framework for the long-term planning of the Village to best meet the needs of residents, visitors and other stakeholders in areas such as housing, transportation, governmental services, utilities, economic development and land use. How would YOU like to see Shorewood look in 2030 and beyond?

Your participation is vital and will serve as the foundation for the plan’s development.
