The Waupaca Energy and Transportation Sustainability Plan provides a strategic framework for incorporating sustainability into Waupaca’s future. This plan offers a roadmap for long-term environmental, economic, and social advantages by expanding the adoption of renewable energy and promoting sustainable transportation methods. This strategy was developed in partnership with graduate students from the UW – Madison and is intended to align with Waupaca’s 2030 goals while remaining flexible, measurable, and actionable. Its success depends on collaboration with key stakeholders, including Waupaca city leaders, businesses, and residents. With clear objectives, targeted strategies, and defined indicators, the Waupaca Energy and Transportation Sustainability Plan ensures a resilient, interconnected, and prosperous community will guide the city’s growth.
