City Bans Travel to North Carolina!

So says the Mayor! Standing up for the LGBTQ community, emphasis on the T.

What do YOU Want in a Historic Preservation Plan?

Landmarks Commission will be talking about the scope of services in the Request for Proposals (RFP) that will be going out, talking about it TONIGHT!. Before you start snoozing at that boring language . . . this is the part that matters. What you get depends upon what you ask for!

Mayor’s Moratorium on Food/Drink/Alcohol Establishments in Downtown

This will be discussed tonight at the Plan Commission, Wednesday at ALRC and Thursday at Downtown Coordinating Committee. Question is, does anyone but the mayor think this is a good idea? Or necessary?

Madison Schools Week Ahead

I feel so incompetent, it looks like there is only one meetings this week - that may or may not be true. You figure it out. Of course, that one meeting is during the day.

Council Discusses “Reform” Tonight, Public Not Welcome

Madison Schools Week Ahead

I found 6 meetings . . . I'm sure there are more . . .
