City of Stoughton Downtown Redevelopment

This on-going project involves redevelopment of the downtown. The process started with preparation of a Downtown Redevelopment Plan. The plan is an effort by the City of Stoughton, in partnership with downtown businesses, to stimulate continued redevelopment of the downtown and investment of public and private resources. The Downtown Redevelopment Plan addressed the following issues:

  • Coordination with City Officials, Staff, Businesses and Committees
  • Funding Sources and Options
  • Infrastructure Improvements and Cost Analysis
  • Parking and Pedestrian Safety Issues
  • Prioritization Schedule for Improvements
  • Unified Design Theme and Streetscape Design

Upon completion of the Downtown Redevelopment Plan, the City created a Tax Increment District to help fund downtown planning, new infrastructure and revolving loan funds for facade improvements. The City is currently implementing the plan that includes reconstruction of streets and sidewalks.

2008 Scenic Beauty Award awarded by Citizens for a Scenic Wisconsin. 2004 Historic Preservation Achievement Award from the WI State Historical Society and the Wisconsin Commercial Real Estate Women Grassroots Award in 2005. The May 2007 issue of InTransition— the magazine of the N. Jersey Transportation Authority featured this project as a model for corridor redevelopment.
