Brookfield's Comprehensive/Master Plan-Participation Opportunity

The City of Brookfield is working on their Comprehensive/Master Plan for the city's future, projecting the community's needs until 2035.

Below, I am pasting an e-mail sent out by one of the consultants. If you live in Brookfield, I urge you to take advantage of the opportunity to provide feedback. In particular, look to the housing elements-such as affordability.
