I asked all the alders to respond to the Mayor's letter, Marsha was the only on to do so, so far. Her response is illuminating.

This is kinda cool, good for them. I want the city to do this too!

Join us in a march, rally and sleep out today. Starts at 4:00 at "the stones" on the top of State St., rally at 6:00 at the City-County Building and sleep out in solidarity with people without homes. Sign the petition, Email your electeds. When will we get serious about solving the issues for our brothers and sisters without homes?

After the mayor's recent tirade against the "drifter" homeless people (psssst, men all ran out of shelter time at the end of March, that is why you are seeing more "new" people) its a little hard to launch a campaign to find landlords willing to rent to veteran's for the MAYOR'S ZERO:16 campaign. Here's the press release planned for today, Registry Week starts Saturday and there is a Tuesday 10 am press conference next week with the Mayor and County Executive Joe Parisi to help recruit landlords to the cause. This is seriously screwed up. Sigh . . .

Only 8 meetings. All but 2 are at 5:30 or later.

This is what we know of as of Friday afternoon, expect several additions throughout the week.

Any homeless people living outside and all food programs from them are being moved to the City-County Building, says the Mayor. Administrative action, no public input. No public input whatsoever. None.

Many downtown streets will be closed on Saturday morning, April 25th for the Crazylegs Classic run/walk. Traffic will not be able to cross...

Please consider this and sign up if you can!

One more, that makes 8 out of 20 meetings this week that were late. 27% of the meetings were not on the "Weekly Meeting Schedule" on Monday morning this week.

Public Market Forum and meetings, Warner Park Visioning, Neighborhood House Community Rummage Sale, Madcity Chickens 2015 Backyard Coop Tour and Madison Bus Route changes.
