City Week Ahead
Shitshow as per usual.

Do the insiders even know? It's absurd you have to look in 2 places to put together one week's worth of agendas and the info is all so confusing and incomplete. Please ask them to be more transparent and fix this! allalders@cityofmadison.com and mayor@cityofmadison.com

Soglin’s Side of the Monday Protest Story
Kyle drew a little attention with his post questioning the Mayor's role and promises with the protests on Monday. Blaska vowed to get to the bottom of it. I had already asked and got and answer from Soglin but not the police and shared that with Kyle, so Kyle made a clarification . . . but here's what Soglin said.
Recall Repercussions
The results were in this summer with the democrats flipping two seats in the Senate recalls. While the republicans lost two seats,...
My Neighborhood Is a Nightmare
Politically, that is. My alder, at the last minute and without consultations with anyone, wants to up-zone it tonight at the plan commission . . . which is making me think again what a disaster this situation is. It's definitely an only-in-Madison situation.
City Weekly Joke Ahead
Who knows if this is anywhere near what meetings will actually occur this week.
