The City of Kenosha is inviting residents, business owners and community partners to participate in a series of public workshops that will help shape the city’s 2050 Comprehensive Plan, a long-range vision that will guide how Kenosha grows, invests and evolves over the next 25 years.
These workshops are open to all and designed to be interactive, welcoming spaces where community members can share ideas, identify priorities and discuss opportunities for Kenosha’s future. Sessions at KELA and the Northside Library will include hands-on activities and guided mapping exercises. All other sessions will offer informal opportunities for community members to stop by and share their input.
The 2050 Comprehensive Plan will guide decisions related to:
Housing and neighborhood investment
Transportation and mobility
Parks, open space and natural resources
Economic development and job growth
Downtown and commercial corridors
Sustainability and climate resilience
Historic preservation and community identity
“Community voices are essential to this process,” said the City Development team. “These workshops are a chance for residents to directly influence the policies and projects that will shape Kenosha for decades.”
What is the 2050 Comprehensive Plan?
A comprehensive plan serves as a community’s roadmap for future decision-making. It outlines long-term goals and strategies to ensure that growth is thoughtful and aligned with community values. Kenosha updates its plan periodically to reflect changing needs, emerging opportunities and the residents' feedback.
How to participate
All workshops are free and open to the public. No registration is required.
