About Forward La Crosse
The Forward La Crosse Campaign will serve to update “Confluence” adopted in 2002. This campaign, with the help of the citizens of La Crosse, WI, will create an action plan guiding decision making and investment.
The campaign will address issues and opportunities, housing, transportation, economic development, intergovernmental cooperation, land use, utilities, community facilities, agricultural, natural and cultural resources, and plan implementation.
5 Ways to Participate
The survey (1) offers the chance to share insights about what life is like in La Crosse and what you hope to see in the future. Leave comments and photos on a digital map (2) highlighting opportunities for parks and recreation, historic preservation, transportation, and more. Share your priorities via the “voting game.” (3) and identify which principles (4) should be prioritized to guide La Crosse’s future! The visual preference survey (5) is a short survey where you select images that you prefer related to the design of buildings, streets, and public spaces across the City.
