PLEASE JOIN US TO HELP PLAN FOR TWO FUTURE PARKS IN THE VILLAGE GREEN CENTER
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9 FROM 5:00 TO 6:00 P.M.

VILLAGE GREEN CENTER
The Village Green Center is a proposed downtown-like area at the demographic center of Pleasant Prairie. Plans call for a mixed-use development with a blend of commercial, civic, and residential uses that will serve as a gathering place for the community. During 2007 and 2008, planning cafés were held to gather public input for the Village Center.

The input was used to develop the sub-neighborhood plan and is still being used as development plans are being refined. During 2015, a section of 39th Avenue adjacent to the future Village Green Center was reconstructed and some storm water and utilities work was completed that will serve the future development.

PARKLAND DEDICATED
In May of 2016, the Village Board approved two Certified Survey Maps to subdivide two properties located west of 39th Avenue and west of Springbrook Road. Martin Hanley with Prairie Place LLC, the developer who owns the open space that will become the Village Green Center, requested the subdivision in order to dedicate two parcels to the Village. The two parcels will become future public parks.

One of the parks will be approximately 150,000 square feet with 350 feet of frontage along the west side of 39th Avenue. The second park will be just under 200,000 square feet with 300 feet of frontage along the west side of Springbrook Road. As the Village and its consultants work to draft conceptual plans for the new parks, they are seeking public input. Ultimately, the final plans will become part of our community's Master Park Plan.

PLEASE JOIN US
Please consider joining us for an hour-long, public planning meeting for these two future parks that will become community gathering spaces upon the development of the Village Green Center. During the meeting, attendees will hear an overview of the park planning process and will participate in small group discussions centering on park facility visioning, a visual preference survey, and a small group charrette (design/planning activity). The meeting will conclude with a wrap up and question session.

Attendees will be asked to consider, "What is your vision for the park in the future?" and "What improvements should be made in terms of land use and activities (active/passive uses), opportunities (spacial relationships/connectivity), and programming (sports, festivals, education, etc)?"

The meeting will be held from 5:00 until 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 9 in the Village Hall Auditorium. The auditorium is located on the south side of Pleasant Prairie Village Hall (9915 39th Avenue). Auditorium parking is accessible from 100th Street.
