We don’t get many chances to shape the future of our hometown. Throughout 2023, Hermantown residents will have that opportunity. City staff, elected officials, resident groups, and a trusted external firm, HKGI, have partnered together to build Hermantown’s next Comprehensive Plan. But now, we also need the input of as many residents, families, and businesses as possible.

Hermantown is your hometown. What should it look like in 2045?

OPEN HOUSE

Hermantown is hosting an open house on Tuesday, March 4, from 5-7 p.m. at City Hall for people interested in seeing the final stages of the new comprehensive plan. 

After several public events at SummerFest and the YMCA at the Essentia Wellness Center, the multi-year process is coming close to completion.

Please join us at the Comprehensive Plan Open House to learn more.

 

My Hometown – The Maps

The buttons below take you to maps that help provide a picture of Hermantown through a few different lenses. These current maps tell an important story, from the zoning to the land itself. The links provide a larger image that can be downloaded.

My Hometown – The Data

The growth of Hermantown has been strong for years, but will it continue? We’ve come a long way from the pioneering families who populated our Jackson Project Homes, but what should new families joining Hermantown expect? We’ve always been a business-friendly community, but what does that look like going forward?

A TRUSTED PARTNER

HKGI was hired to help lead Hermantown in designing its next Comprehensive Plan. Not only do they have an incredible reputation for this type of work, but they’ve also got strong connections to Hermantown – as they helped us map out both the Hermantown Marketplace and the initial ideas for the city-wide trail system.

There are opportunities to get involved in this process – most notably through the community survey and the interactive planning map. Additionally, there will be public meetings, interviews, and other chances to connect with this team and city staff to weigh in on the future of Hermantown.
