As part of these efforts, Commission staff directs engagement to 75+ primary organizations and nine community partners serving specific population subgroups.

The official metropolitan planning organization, regional planning commission, and water quality management planning agency for the Southeastern Wisconsin Region. The Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission (SEWRPC) is the official metropolitan planning organization (MPO) and regional planning commission (RPC) for the seven county southeastern Wisconsin area. The Commission was created in 1960 to provide the basic information and planning services necessary to solve problems which transcend the corporate boundaries and fiscal capabilities of the local units of government comprising the Southeastern Wisconsin Region. For over 60 years the Commission has provided such information and planning services needed to solve problems and provide focus and attention on key issues of regional consequence. Engaging specific population groups, notably low-income populations, people of color, and people with disabilities or other needs, is a particular focus of the Commission’s public participation program.

Rare find: Commission staff were recently on North Lake in Walworth County and found a population of Northern Wild Rice (Zizania palustris), categorized as a special concern species in Wisconsin. Wild rice is known as manoomin in the Ojibwe language, which translates to “the good berry” and is culturally significant to Native tribes. Manoomin is increasingly rare in Southeastern Wisconsin due to shoreline development and pollution. Learn more: https://apps.dnr.wi.gov/biodiversity/Home/detail/plants/446371
