Status update: What's next for the plan?
Strategies for change are rooted in the input of Marshall residents
In 2021, residents of Marshall Township stepped forward to provide their ideas for how the community should change in the coming years.
During subsequent months, the Township's staff, the project steering committee and the consulting team developed recommendations for actions Marshall Township should take. This process evaluated potential action steps for importance and feasibility and set priorities.
Next, the community will have the chance to view and consider a robust set of recommendations in the areas of:
-
Route 910 Traffic and Land Use
-
Green Space and Future Development
-
Recreation Facilities and Connectivity
-
Sense of Place and Identity
Stay tuned for more information on your opportunity to review the recommendations and provide feedback on the draft plan!

THE IMPLEMENTABLE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Marshall Township is undertaking an update to its Comprehensive Plan, the official policy document that establishes a vision, goals and objectives for local government in the long range.
The Implementable Comprehensive Plan approach flips the script on the traditional way communities approach long-range planning, which all too often results in a document collecting dust on a shelf. Our project focuses on generating the capacity and momentum to take action on consensus community priorities. The process will provide the creative ideas and strategies to fuel action plans that can be readily undertaken. It builds teams of leaders and resource groups that represent ways and means to get things done. It makes implementation a well-supported, clear and feasible next step.

THE PROCESS
Developing a successful Implementable Comprehensive Plan for Marshall Township will depend heavily on public and stakeholder input. During the next year, stay tuned for announcements on coming events, draft documents and news on how you can take part in helping to shape the community's future.
