The Future Is A River: A Forum on Linking Economic Redevelopment to Riverfront Revitalization in Wisconsin

Thursday, April 12, 2012 - Friday, April 13, 2012
River Alliance of Wisconsin, Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, Wisconsin Coastal Management Program, The Johnson Foundation at Wingspread

The purpose of this forum is to convene communities from the Great Lakes basin and throughout Wisconsin who have taken on or are planning to undertake revitalization of their urban riverfronts. The goal of this one-day forum will be to identify how the state has been a successful partner and facilitator and/or how it has erected hurdles to efforts to turn around neglected and polluted urban river fronts. We will also present an overview of existing resources at the state level for urban rivers work. The River Alliance recognizes that there are many communities trying to revive their urban riverfronts around the state and this is an opportunity for municipalities to recognize barriers and opportunities in common.
