The Young Gifted and Black Coalition presents a day of Political Education and protest - Tomorrow!

Looks like some good discussions coming up! Spring 2015 speakers series.

So many meetings and things going on now that the holidays are over. ChiliOCRACY, Dane County TimeBank events, Community Building and Empowerment Funding, Emerging Opportunities Program, Street Closure 300 Block W. Dayton, Permaculture Guild Visioning Sessions, Green Downtown Program, Low-income dental clinic closing and Chief Koval community meetings.

Ok, a few brief items, $13M in TIF and Allied Drive Grocery. One item demonstrates the power of one citizen paying attention to city hall, the other, is just absurd, after talking about applying equity to their agenda, the fail to apply equity to the agenda after it was pointed out twice. Equity, its just talk.

Council failed to override the Mayor's veto, staff contracts renewed and they share their visions for the next 5 years, northside Tenneyson Ridge affordable housing project passes, Allied Drive Grocery Store report passes after some comments and an embarrassing moment as the council refers the $13M TIF for Anchor Bank.

5 changes in the last 24 hours . . .

Sigh . . .

Another hotel, and will the extend the State St. TIF all the way to E. Washington?

Construction, traffic, street width, planning, underground utilities, trees, etc.

People, people, people, if you're going to make the augments, look at the facts . . .I know they are becoming irrelevant in much of the rhetoric, but you really look silly when you say silly things.

Billboards, Kickstarter and Allied Grocery oh my! But not the $13M for TIF for Anchor Bank project on the square?

What would happen if the council took tonight's agenda and voted through an equity lens?
