You can have your voice heard on what the Village of Sister Bay will look like over the next 20 years. The village will host a public input session on Saturday to discuss its 20-year comprehensive land use plan. This event was rescheduled from January 13th, which had to be postponed due to a crippling snowstorm that hit the area that weekend. The land use plan, which addresses housing, economic development, transportation, and other elements, is a requirement for the village to receive state funding. The village continues to grow, with outdoor recreation and affordable housing being the two most talked about items. Village Administrator Julie Schmelzer said the feedback is important because the community’s members should have a say on what gets done in the village.
The public input session will occur at the Village Hall on Bay Shore Drive from 9 a.m. to noon. If you cannot attend the in-person event, you can submit your comments at this link between February 10th and February 17th.
