Madison

Here it is . . .

Oh yeah, remember the round up? I should probably start doing that again, eh? Anyways, here's a bunch of random things I have from this week.

A full week of committee meetings.

Sorry, one more week of weak blogging.

Seriously, why can't they just get this info up by Friday afternoon, within an hour of posting yesterday, there were notices of three more meetings

Let the games begin . . . all council members here. I had a dream last night that I was the only "media" to show up. Joe Tarr from the Isthmus is here keeping me company . . . no tv, no radio, might be a stray print person around here. Live blogged . . . no complaining about the errors.

Here it is. I'm working hard to control my potty mouth. You're never going to believe how much the gap is ....

City Attorney says that you can't talk about the geese tonight. Of course, full counsel/legal advice would have reminded them that they can...

Not much interesting, but here it is for what it is worth . . . only an hour long meeting and really only one issue discussed - high end rental housing project (i.e. watch for the "not students so its ok" bias) that completely defies the comprehensive plan and yet wasn't a complete disaster process wise, unlike the Edgewater.

Wow, I said Soglin has gone nuts - now is he just lying? This Mayoral hatred of the homeless is getting really bizarre

Stuart Levitan fired off a letter to George Austin last week, the staff sent out a damaging report and tonight Landmarks Commission and Urban Design are holding a joint meeting to discuss the Frautchi/Rowland Plan for State St. and the destruction of a couple Madison Landmarks.

After working closely with and getting to know my new friends, this service is greatly needed for a few of them!
