Board of Estimates
Had a jam packed meeting yesterday (parking rates, affordable housing trust fund, E Washington Ave. property, Southwest Safety Initiative, two-way Johnson and Gorham, etc., here's some highlights:
Soglin Fighting for One-Way Johnson and Gorham
Over neighborhood objections.
Tenney-Lapham Neighborhood Votes Against ULI Project
Unless . . . .
City Week Ahead
Kinda short.

Occupy Tear Down Incredibly Ironic and Unfair

Free 30 days in Shelter for Single Men
So, many people are missing the point of the Occupy tent city and what it provides to the homeless.
Here’s an Stupid Wrinkle for UW Student Tenants
Wow. Thank you Scott Walker. (yes, that's sarcasm) This sounds like it might even lead to deportation of international students?
