The New Plan for Madison Unveiled


The Joel Rogers and Dave Cieslewicz City of Madison Comprehensive Plan can be summed up in one sentence. Madison’s hope for a sustainable future is a vision of an urban city with densely populated neighborhoods, where no cars are needed for transportation because quality of life is within walking distance. Rogers and Cieslewicz will use these words over and over and over. They are selling New Urbanist philosophy to voters who may or may not be legal residents. The city doesn’t know because they don’t card except for cigarettes and pseudoephedrine. They don’t really care.
