2024 Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan

The 2024 Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan is a planning document for public outdoor spaces within the City. It is updated every five years to remain eligible for DNR grant funding. The 2024 version of the plan is in-depth and includes things such as site specific needs. Public input was gathered through a public survey and informational meeting . These assisted in the recommendations and goals for the park and open space system. We would like to thank everyone who participated. The survey results can be found in the appendix of the document.

Mandt Park Master Plan

Teigen Farms Park at Magnolia Springs

Teigen Farms Park will be a new neighborhood park space that will be developed as part of the Magnolia Springs residential development. Located on the southern side of Stoughton, southwest of the intersection of Isham Street and S. 4th Street, this park will serve the residents of the immediate neighborhood. The existing extends of the park make up 5.5 acres of space. Within this Master Plan process, being mindful of keeping natural areas and using existing elements was an important aspect.
