Marquette County Invites Residents to Shape the Future at Community Events (Gwinn)
The Marquette County Planning Division is hosting a series of Map the Future events across the county to gather community input, providing an opportunity to guide the Division’s update of the Marquette County 2040 Master Plan at four regional meetings. Residents are encouraged to attend the meeting in their region. At each event, attendees can expect to hear from county planners on local demographics and trends, learn about related planning processes underway, including Materials Management and Hazard Mitigation, and connect with fellow community members. Participants will also be invited to share their thoughts on key topics including Economy, Health and Human Services, Housing, Recreation, Transportation, and Environment.
