Township of Arcadia Master Plan

Arcadia Township, Networks Northwest and Michigan State University have partnered to develop a new community Master Plan for the Township. While all of Networks Northwest's planning processes include a public input component, this project is unique in the number of opporunities residents have to provide their ideas. Throughout 2026, the planning team will engage members of the public through an online survey, 3 design meetings hosted by the Michigan State University Sustainable Built Environment Initiative (SBEI), 2 pop-up events and local gatherings, as well as a Public Input Session for more open-ended idea sharing.

The goal for the Township and the rest of the planning team is to ensure that Arcadia has a clear and well-supported view of the future, including small and large projects alike. We hope you will join us throughout 2026!
