24 amendments at Board of Estimates

Well, its budget night again, this time 24 operating budget amendments, but first, their regular meeting. Then I'll post a new blog on the budget.

For consideration tonight! The list boggles my mind a bit

19 meetings, that we know about . . . then there are the extra special ones they don't tell us about and you can only see if you go the hallway outside the clerks office and look.

15 meetings . . . but expect them to add more next week . . . sigh . . .

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.

It's budget time, Tenant Resource Center is losing $90,000 from the county, which is 1/3 of our budget and it will destabilie the entire...

Not much . . . unless the go into the committee of the whole and talk about the operating budget . . . but they didn't put that off the agenda for discussion. ?!

Or do something about it, your choice! (Of course, if you don't live in Dane County your voice is especially needed!)

This year they have to get the amendments in by 10am the day before the meeting they are considered so the public has a fighting chance of knowing what is going on. Be careful tho, often the consider amendments at two meetings and some committees won't let you speak twice - so check that out before you speak and find out if they are doing a two meeting process or getting it done in one and done. The committees vary.

It's in front of two committees tonight meeting at the same time in different parts of town.

4 changes since yesterday, including adding the ALRC (Alcohol License Review Committee)!
