NE Neighborhood: Regional Vision
The NE Neighborhood is positioned to benefit from increased connectivity to Downtown Madison and continued development of the Fitchburg Technology Neighborhood (FTN).
City in Motion expresses a desire to develop Uptown as an urban business district.
Continued residential development in both FTN and the NE Neigh. will assist in propelling the area as a mixed-use center.

Community Development Goals
To attain a pattern of development that includes environments suited to a variety of needs, including privacy, productivity, convenience beauty, sustainability and diversity
To develop a compact urban community that is both visually and functionally distinct from its agricultural surroundings.
Additional Development Goals
Encourage development that is compatible with adjacent land uses;
Ensure that, when the Northeast Neighborhood is completely built-out, it is an interconnected neighborhood; mandate that future development proposals consider implications of their development on neighboring properties;
Ensure that future development uses appropriate measures to properly manage stormwater runoff such as site or regional detention/infiltration areas, while incorporating an emphasis on storm water quantity and quality;
Strive for a balanced neighborhood by providing for a variety of land uses;
Ensure any phasing program is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan

Stormwater Management Issues and Performance Standards
Issue Performance Standard
Peak Discharge Maintain pre-development peak discharge for the 2, 10, and 100-year, 24-hour design storms;
Infiltration Maintain at least 90% of the pre-development infiltration volume;
Groundwater Recharge Maintain an average recharge rate of at least 7.6 inches per year;
Water Quality: Oil and Grease Treat the first 0.5 inches of runoff for oil and grease;
Phosphorous Demonstrate a reduction of existing agricultural loading by 50% at fully developed, stabilized conditions;
Thermal Mitigation Reduce temperature of stormwater to all discharge points to a creek or similar water bodies (accomplished through storm water infiltration and vegetated buffers) and avoid in-line wet ponds in areas of perennial flow;

North Stoner Prairie Neighborhood
The Planning and Zoning Department, in conjunction with SAA design group and the North Stoner Prairie Steering Committee, currently in the process of creating a neighborhood plan
Process began in October 2012, scheduled for adoption October 2013
To date, 8 Steering Committee meetings have been held and the 3rd public meeting will be August 15, 2013
North Stoner Prairie
Project Timeline
Neighborhood Vision
North Stoner Prairie will be a vibrant, stable, and economically, environmentally, and socially sustainable neighborhood that is home to a diverse range of uses, from an employment center to housing to neighborhood schools. Through protecting natural resources, bikeways and open spaces, North Stoner will set an example for respecting water resources and the environment while promoting jobs and economic development. The North Stoner Neighborhood offers a transition between the urbanized area of the City of Fitchburg and agricultural resources to the south. It will offer a connection to nature, community gardens and agriculture, while creating a safe, walkable neighborhood to enjoy access to schools, parks, neighborhood services and employment.
Neighborhood Design Principals
Integrated, holistic planning process
Know and work with site capacity and context
Respect and preserve open space, cultural, historic, and natural resources
Provide a diversity of land uses
Support the development of jobs
Accommodate housing of varying types and price ranges
Create integrated, multi-modal transportation network including bikeways, complete streets, support for walkability and access to transit
Conserve energy and water resources
Build on unique neighborhood attributes to create authentic, dynamic character that provides a transition between uses and preserves neighborhood amenities

Stormwater Goals and Recommendations
Volume: Avoid exacerbating closed depression runoff but
requiring 100% predevelopment infiltration (stay on) volume on all developed sites.
Encourage volume controls in which stormwater is evaporated or transpired. Relying solely on infiltration not recommended for soils west of Badger Trail.
Stormwater Goals and Recommendations
Peak Discharge and Drainage East of Badger State Trail, where stormwater drains out
of the neighborhood, control peak discharge to predevelopment levels for the 1-year through 100-year events to meet CARPC requirements.
West of the Badger State Trail, where water drains into the closed depression, control peak discharge for the 1-year and 2-year events to predevelopment levels.
Stormwater Goals and Recommendations
Flood Protection Develop an emergency pumping plan to address
unanticipated flooding of closed depression due to climate change, stormwater system failure, or other factors.
Monitor water levels in the closed depression to provide early warning of such unanticipated conditions. Installation of a staff gauge and monthly stage readings are recommended.
