PATH Releases Draft Creative Community Plan for Review and Comment
Platteville, Wisconsin (November 26, 2018) – On Wednesday, November 14th the Platteville Arts, Trails, and History (PATH) Core Planning Team held a Community Update and released the draft Platteville Creative Community Plan for public review and comment. This Creative Community Plan is the product of 15 months of community dialogue, covering many aspects of culture, history, arts, and trails and involving a wide range of people who are committed to Platteville’s success. The plan reflects the good thinking, passion, knowledge and dedication of a broad array of community members and provides a path to growing a sustainable, integrated, and connected creative community that will add significant value to quality of life and economic development across the Platteville community. Project Manager Angie Wright noted that, “The working group chose the PATH acronym in part because they liked the visual invoked by the word; paths connect people, places, and things. The Planning Teams hopes that the Creative Community Plan serves as a path to connect and guide the many facets of our community.”
The Platteville Creative Community Plan includes goals to provide an overall direction and objectives and recommendations to provide additional focus, but the Plan is meant to be a guide, not a strict set of instructions. Specific strategies and actions can be changed and adjusted depending on resources available and the readiness and interest of organizations and partners. The challenge of implementing the Creative Community Plan will be one shared by the City, PATH, and the larger community. Erik Flesch, Museum Director and City Lead on PATH, commented that, “The Mining & Rollo Jamison Museums are honored to be part of bringing the Platteville Creative Community Plan to fruition. Public historians love identifying the narratives that relate place, people, artifacts and events – and in a way, the PATH project similarly seeks out the connections and unifying themes of our community with the aim of developing our creative culture and arts economy. Besides defining a future for Platteville’s culture, history, arts, and trails leadership, the Creative Community Plan presents open-source market research resource that we challenge each and every organization and business in the Platteville area to benefit from. There is nothing more enlightening and helpful than to hear members of the public share what they value and want more of. The Museums are already allowing the results to inform its future programming.”
The draft of the Platteville Creative Community Plan is available for download at our website (www.platteville.org/PATH). Printed copies are available for review at the Platteville Public Library, Mining & Rollo Jamison Museums, and City Hall. Feedback, suggestions, and comments on this Plan can be submitted to the Planning Team through December 31, 2018. Comments can be emailed to PlattevillePATH@gmail.com or mailed to PATH, c/o City of Platteville, PO Box 780, Platteville, WI 53818.
