Madison

So many people in foreclosure don't know what to do, this story is inspiring, because it is a story of victory!

You're not surprised, right? Need legal services, you might get through the screening if your problem is bad enough.

Hope to see you tonight . . .

So far, here's what has been approved or on the table.

Party Saturday, clean up this weekend, rally and march Monday and . . . stay tuned.

So, I'm totally out of blogging practice, I'm used to staying up later and not getting up early. Gotta get my sleeping schedule back to "normal". So, I'll spare you the gruesome and mostly boring and repetitive discussion on 800 E Washington. The meeting lasted 3.5 hours

Final step . . . common council . . . have you been paying attention? I haven't, I gave up a while ago (and it includes my neighborhood!), I have no idea which changes from the Economic Development Commission and others made it in. Lets find out what the lobbyists have to say about it - warning: they love it!

If you have income, and it doesn't come from a job, you're apparently not worthy to live in Madison Development Corporation affordable housing unit. Um, I think that's discrimination based on (legal) source of income. Ahem, hope the Fair Housing Center is paying attention!

So much for taking poverty seriously. As needs and expenses go up, agencies are looking at decreases. Again, for the geeks and those from agencies affected . . . and all their clients. The real issue here is that most non-profits will see a 5% decrease in funding

It's all beginning to blur together, county threatens to kick us out or give us tickets, we rally troops, nothing happens. Lather. ...

Madison’s Common Council voted to reconfigure N. Sherman Ave from a four-lane to a two-way with a center left turn lane. During the testimony, several issues were raised by opponents, and rehashed later on talk radio that I would like to fact-check for posterity.

Only took me a half day off of work and about 80 miles on vehicles.
