Olbrich Park - North Parcel Park Development Plan

Last Updated: 11/02/2023

Madison Parks is creating a Park Development Plan for the parkland north of Garver Feed Mill, referred to as Olbrich Park - North Parcel.

What is a Park Development Plan?

  • A planning document that provides a framework for future development and improvements.
  • Establishes the general location recommendations for desired amenities and resource protection.
  • The identified improvements are often implemented in phases, with each phase requiring further design development and public engagement before construction.
