For 10 homeless persons who died this year was held on Saturday. Lets hope no more over the next few days with extreme cold and programs closed.

Um, there is none. City lists one meeting that is cancelled and the county has nothing listed. Everyone enjoy the week off!

While the holidays bring out extra generosity from the community in the form of gifts for kids and other items - it also poses some real practical problems, like agencies and businesses and other programs being closed. Today is the day when it seems that many of the programs are announcing when they are closed . . . a bad time of the year to be homeless.

Filing deadline for candidates is January 7th, question is, does anyone in Madison even know? Or care? Only 7 races in of 37 districts.

The county answers my previously denied open records request, kinda, they gave me the information, but my request is still denied.

I think everyone agrees, we just don't agree to what degree - actual benefits or benefits that never materialize.

Why ya gotta be like that?

For the city :(. Maybe some county staff can attend?

Minor tweaks to the City County Building rules that probably won't do much different than what is already happening in the building - except make people feel like they are doing something. Of course, it all sounded good last night, but lets see how it gets implemented.

Five of them.

Ok, why won't anyone say where the $50,000 for operating and $75,000 for renovating the day center is coming from. My first ever open records request denial - after about 20 years of submitting them without problems.

Last week before two weeks of mostly downtime.
