You can call it being a spoiler if you want, but so far, the choices to challenge Walker are uninspiring.

Wow, just squeaking by, barely 24 hours notice on the one . . .

I'm guessing 45 minutes, an hour tops. They only spent 50 minutes rubber stamping the magical mystery deal at Personnel and Finance and since them I think some more deals were made . . . so . . . speeches about how hard they work and patting themselves on the back and get out of here quick to go get a drink . . . that's my prediction. Done by 8:00.

City Alders plow ahead despite concerns (motion failed) by Personnel Committee, you know, the experts

In a time when we are seeing less and less transparency at the capitol, its good to see that the county board is trying to add transparency. Meeting tonight if you'd like to support this effort! Thanks Kyle Richmond and county board supervisors supporting this!

That was a committee with a tough decision to make! And Shiva Bidar-Sielaff volunteered to be there!

So, if Mark Clear says it will be two years before the Edgewater moves forward due to the lawsuit, why are we working to put it in a TIF district?

This is the real hearing, the one that matters, since the Transit and Parking Commission is the one that makes these decisions unless it is appealed to the council.

I can only tell you what I have heard, I don't have many details, but this seems to be the official communication on this matter. Who knows where the blame lies?

This is day 20 of my video taping the current events. The last 24 hours were clearly the craziest. Twice I was told I was risking arrest during the last two weeks, but nothing happened either time, and in the end, justice prevailed, for now . . . here's what happened in the last few hours.

8 meetings before 5:00, out of 18. Public input not wanted - or for that matter, other county board supervisor input.

Well, until Nov 1 . . . but for now, this is good news and if the pilot goes well, I hope they can open again in April.
