I’m feeling the Council was Lied to
Something isn't adding up. And I think the homeless people at Occupy are the victims of a some cruel games that were played at the council meeting the other night.
Dane County Week Ahead 1/13/20
Lame duck session in effect, last week the full county board cancelled their meeting, this week Public Protection and Judiciary and no agenda for Health and Human Needs.
Homeless? No Dane County services for you!
Ugh. Well, some services yes, some no. Finally, the CCS program is going to do a one-year trial and will not require a "place of fixed habitation" to be able to get case management and substance abuse services.
The Low Down on Voting
You've probably been inundated with negative campaign ads and will be glad to get this day over. But, now that it is election day, you might still have questions. Here's some useful links for you!
Daily Round Up – 9/4/20
Here's your news round up and various other announcements and tidbits that didn't make it in to their own post!
How Did the Air National Guard Respond to Madison’s Comments on F-35s?
How did the Air National Guard respond to the over 6,000 comments made by the public during the comment period for the Draft EIS? I'm not impressed.
County Week Ahead
They have a new system for their meetings, listing more than a week at a time, but I'm not sure how accurate it will be moving forward. So, here's the meetings for this week.
Round Up, Thursday 11/7/19
Various city updates, Cookies with a Cop (?!?), Occupy Madison 5 year Anniversary, Housing Openings at the YWCA and more!
Sights and Sounds from Day Two, Political Rallies (More Updates)
REPOSTED DUE TO MAJOR UPDATES: Ok, vote first, then make your way to the Capitol or the Orpheum. Here's some bits and pieces and I'll add the video as I get it done.
Immigration as a Moral Issue (Day One 9/18)
Leila Pine and the James Reeb Unitarian Universalist Church have embarked on a class to explore the issues. They asked me to video tape it and I felt the issue was important enough to do so. So, here's day one (September 18th). Later this week day two, and hopefully day three!
Dane County Criminal Justice Council Gets New Leadership
And they heard about a new report on the jail population.
Monday Show Down?
Again. The Homeless Issues Committee was asked by the City-County Liaison Committee to look at solutions for the issues of homeless people being in the City-County Building. That meeting and conversation didn't take place because the staff blew it and didn't get the agenda out, even after they were reminded to do so . . . so that work wasn't done before the next meeting on the issue . . . which is Monday . . . sigh . . .
