Welcome to the official Pleasant Prairie Web site. Although this is a new Web site for the Village, it will continue to grow and accommodate the needs of the wonderful citizens of our Village and many others who may visit the site from time to time. I encourage you to visit the site often and see the new updates and enhancements that will be added.The Village of Pleasant Prairie is a progressive municipality offering an array of residential, recreational, commercial, and industrial opportunities. The Village strives to provide the best quality of life for our citizens at the most affordable tax rate possible. In 2004 the Village was honored to have the lowest mill rate for property tax purposes of any municipality in the 15, 000 to 30, 000 population range in the State of Wisconsin. The Village Board of Trustees has strived to provide a professionally managed and well-planned municipality that represents a harmonious balance between residential, commercial, manufacturing, conservancy, and agricultural land uses. The Village of Pleasant Prairie offers comprehensive municipal services such as a professional full-time police department, professional fire department that provides paramedic rescue services, engineering and public works, a sewer and water utility, professional office of planning and development, and administrative services for the Village of Pleasant Prairie.To enhance and promote the quality of life in the area of recreation ; Prairie Springs Park was developed as a cornerstone of our Village, hosting many family-friendly festivals and events each year such as Prairie Family Days, Danskin Women's Triathlon that raises money to fight breast cancer, the Pleasant Prairie Triathlon that raises money for recreation programs for children with special needs, and more. Within this 425-acre park is Lake Andrea, a 100-acre spring-fed lake, surrounded by a 2.3-mile paved trail, perfect for walking, jogging, bicycling, or in-line skating. Also located in Prairie Springs Park is southeastern Wisconsin's largest multi-purpose indoor recreation facility: LakeView RecPlex.
