2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN City of Delafield 500 Genesee Street Delafield, WI 53018 Adopted on April 27, 2009 Prepared by: Yaggy Colby Associates PO Box 180500 Delafield, WI 53018 (262) 646-6855 Project No. 1998-840 PREFACE The purpose of a comprehensive plan is to guide the growth and development of the City of Delafield. This compilation of text is the result of a long involved public process to determine the City’s goals and objectives. The process began with identification of the comprehensive plan elements as defined by the Wisconsin statute 66.1001. Elements were identified specific to the City of Delafield, and the City was able to make informed decisions about goals and objectives as they relate to growth and development. This was done through a public process as defined in the City’s Public Participation Plan. After consensus of the goals and objectives, implementation measures were established so that the plan could be realized. The principles, goals, and objectives identified herein were derived from various sources and input. Input on the establishment of the principles, goals, and objectives came from the City’s Plan Commission, Common Council, Department of Public Works, Lake Welfare Committee, and Park and Recreation Board, as well as, City Staff, Waukesha County and most importantly, citizens. The sources used were the City of Delafield’s 1991 Comprehensive Plan, the Waukesha County 2030 Comprehensive Plan, and the Comprehensive Planning Legislation (Section 66.1001 of the Wisconsin Statutes).
