Useless City Weekly Schedule

Sorry my “week ahead” has kinda sucked and been incomplete lately, but if I have incomplete info, it seems sort of less of a priority and misleading. Check out all the additional meetings scheduled after the Weekly Schedule came out.
8 meetings were added Monday. 2 more on Tuesday. That’s like a 30% error rate – with only 70% of the meetings making it to the schedule on time.

This is absurd. I think people should contact their alders (allalders@cityofmadison.com or districtx@cityofmadison.com with x being the district number ex. 2 or 14) and the Mayor (MayorGeneralMailbox@cityofmadison.com) and ask that they do something to make sure the public has meaningful notice of meetings. Or are we expected to check the “Weekly Schedule” every few hours to find out which meetings are added throughout the week?
