Hard to round up . . . when there is not. much. there.

Last week, not only did I have a little chat with County Board Chair Scott McDonell . . . I also had a little chat with County Executive Kathleen Falk . . . check it out!

Mostly, there was 3.5 hours of testimony about how the cuts would impact agencies, then a lot of confusion and then they got kicked out of the building.

TiVo'd, but it was a much shorter meeting than I had anticipated . . . Edgewater TID and Affordable Housing Trust Fund raid by CDA referred. Money for McDonald's approved.

I wish I had more time to dig into this issue, but here's what I know . . .

It is a question I get asked daily these days . . .

Oh yeah . . . too good not to share . . .

At the last public hearing on the budget, the Mayor seemed confused by non-profits coming forward saying they were getting cut by 20 and 30%. He said we'd be held harmless this year. Too bad he's not paying better attention. Here's a taste of who is getting cut at the moment . . . Community Services Commission meets tonight to decide who might get additional funding. When we have 17% of our population in the City of Madison living in poverty, this is ugly, ugly news.

Here's my weekend round up of local news and other items. Enjoy!

Watch out, they're sure to add important meetings throughout the week.

I missed the meeting where they discussed all this . . . but here's the documents that were discussed. From: Mayor Sent: Thursday, August...

It's August, and there isn't much to round up, but here's what I've got.
