Yard Waste Sites Open Sat, Pick Up Starts 4/6
Streets Department Updates
2010 State of the Downtown
This things sounds like a public meeting, the Mayor will be there, so will George Austin from OvertureWARF/City High Speed Rail Planning and Al Fish from the UW . . . all public officials, but so see them you have to pay . . . $20, does that seem right? Do they really want neighborhood associations to be there, when they have it scheduled during the work day? This thing just seems odd.
Dane County Budget Wars Heating Up Too
Human Services yet again looking at cutting "non-mandated services" in favor of "mandated services" which of course includes cutting all housing and homelessness programs which are "non-mandated".
Just When Your Thought Construction Season Was Winding Down
Big closures on East Washington Avenue inbound . . . you might need to find a different way to get to work . . .
Mo’ Freakin’ Meetings
Seriously. If the mayor wants to pitch a fit about something not being in legistar (its not our fault he couldn't figure out it was in there), then why isn't he freakin' out about the late notice for these meetings? Not just one item on an agenda, but entire meetings being noticed late! Hmmmmmm . . . .
Tonight, the Social Justice Center Unveils . . .
