Pumpkin Hollow Neighborhood Development Plan
Welcome to the website for the Pumpkin Hollow Neighborhood Development Plan. This plan is being prepared by the City of Madison to help guide future urban development within a planning area located generally east of Interstate Highway 39-90-94 and northwest of the American Center (see Planning Area map below). The plan contains detailed recommendations regarding future land uses and urban design; the future transportation network (including roadways and pedestrian-bicycle facilities); open space preservation; stormwater management and water quality protection; and extension of the full range of urban services, including sanitary sewer, public water, police and fire protection, and transit. Following adoption, the plan will provide a primary basis for the review of future specific development proposals.

The Pumpkin Hollow planning process began in late 2006, and continued throughout the spring and summer of 2007, including three public meetings held in the neighborhood to present background information, learn about community concerns and preferences, discuss preliminary concept plans, and present draft recommendations. In October 2007, the complete review draft of the plan was released for public discussion and comment, and a resolution adopting the Pumpkin Hollow Neighborhood Development Plan as a supplement to the City of Madison Comprehensive Plan was introduced to the Common Council and referred to the Park Commission, Long-Range Transportation Planning Commission and Plan Commission for their recommendation.

The three referral commissions have now completed their review of the draft neighborhood development plan; and all have recommended approval of the plan, with several recommended revisions. The Madison Common Council will consider adoption of the Pumpkin Hollow Neighborhood Development Plan at their March 18, 2008 meeting.

This website contains the complete text and maps of the draft neighborhood development plan, all comments received on the draft plan, the Planning Division staff response to those comments, and the revisions to the draft plan that were recommended by the Madison Plan Commission. The website also includes information about past meetings of the reviewing bodies; copies of the background information and preliminary concept plans presented at the three public meetings held in the neighborhood; and information on how to contact the project staff.

If you have any questions about the draft Pumpkin Hollow Neighborhood Development Plan, would like a printed copy of the draft plan, or would like to submit comments on the draft plan to be forwarded to the Common Council for their consideration, please contact the project staff at the addresses listed at the end of this website.

Pumpkin Hollow Current Planning Activities


Pumpkin Hollow Planning Area
The planning area for the Pumpkin Hollow Neighborhood Development Plan is generally bounded by Interstate Highway 39-90-94 on the west, State Highway 19 on the north, Rattman Road on the east, and The American Center on the south. The planning area includes some lands that will become part of Sun Prairie rather than the City of Madison under the terms of the Town of Burke, Village of Deforest, City of Sun Prairie and City of Madison Cooperative Plan because it is important that planning for future development throughout the planning area be carefully coordinated, regardless of ultimate municipal jurisdiction. The Pumpkin Hollow Neighborhood Development Plan makes specific recommendations for lands that will become part of the City of Madison.
