Effort to develop vision and brand for Oshkosh to begin
Oshkosh citizens are being invited to join and participate in an effort to develop the vision and brand for the Oshkosh community. The development of the vision will be developed first with help from Tony Nelessen of A. Nelessen Associates, one of the nation’s finest urban designers. Those interested in becoming part of the Citizen Advisory Committee to help guide the study should plan to attend a meeting on Friday, March 27 at the Hilton Garden Inn. The meeting will begin at 9 a.m. and conclude by noon.
The Vision Oshkosh is a 4-month effort led by Nelessen. The study area includes the entire community, but may focus on certain neighborhoods and districts. At the March 27th meeting Nelessen will conduct a mini-workshop to begin defining what makes the City of Oshkosh unique and what challenges it faces in the future.
The Citizen Advisory Committee will help establish a vision that will enhance the appeal of Oshkosh in ways that would be consistent with the heritage of the community, the character of commercial interests and neighbors, and the future that we all want to make as promising as possible. That is why participation from throughout the community is being sought on this key committee.
In addition to the Citizen’s Advisory Committee meeting, Nelessen’s technique requires intense public participation, including two additional visioning sessions that it is hoped an estimated 500 persons will attend. These meetings will be enhanced by guidance from those participating at the March 27th session.
If you are interested please rsvp via phone 920.303.9200 or via email jodi@visitoshkosh.com.
The Visioning Steering Committee includes The City of Oshkosh, The Oshkosh Area Community Foundation, The Oshkosh Chamber of Commerce, The Oshkosh Convention & Visitors Bureau, The Oshkosh Northwestern, The University Wisconsin Oshkosh, Lutheran Homes of Oshkosh, and Mercy Health Foundation who are funding the effort.
