The Marquette Action Plan identifies land across Northwest Indiana’s lakefront that can be feasibly transformed into new publicly-accessible areas for conservation, recreation, amenities, and livable communities.
Since public access possesses different meanings to different members of the public, the Marquette Action Plan also defines different categories of access across the lakefront, and identifies a means for accommodating those different uses on a region-wide level.
The plan also provides recommendations for expanding and improving public access on sub area level, and identifies finance and maintenance structures that can be employed to preserve the lakefront’s various assets.
