For more information about the project, please read this letter:   2012_Letter (pdf).  Public Meetings will be scheduled in January and February 2013.    Here is an important excerpt from the cover letter:

“Additionally, if your city, town or village has a project that involves purchasing or developing parkland for recreational facilities in the near future we want to know. Including your project(s) in this document will also satisfy the DNR’s requirement for an adopted comprehensive open space plan. This may eliminate the need for your municipality to prepare a stand-alone plan, should you attempt to apply for these grants during the next five years. ”
