This is how the county treats the homeless. #$%#@! And now the van isn’t going to pick people up today.

Another short meeting . . . which I expected to be longer given the agenda.

Occupy Madison Inc. is working hard to create OM House (housing cooperative) and is working on other projects like OM Works (worker cooperative) to create opportunities for housing and work for those who currently are struggling in this economy. We hope you can join us for our fundraiser tonight!

Through a little mistake on the city’s part, camping is not allowed (permitted or conditional) under any zoning in the new zoning code . . . hoping they can fix this. And be creative to help us solve our on-going issue of . . . say it with me . . . NO LEGAL PLACE TO GO!

Streets department has this to say about our roads this morning.

They are unwilling to give us an extension past February 17th and we . . . say it with me . . . HAVE NO LEGAL PLACE TO GO!!! Still, yet, again.

Also fewer meetings due to fifth Tuesday, Wednesday (no meetings) and Thursday (no meetings)

It’s a 5th Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, so short week.

No matter what the officials might tell you, not everyone gets into shelter and in this cold weather, that could mean the difference between life and death. Check out what various churches, community volunteers and private citizens have been doing!

They are looking at a November 1 opening date. I found out this, and much more at the Homeless Issues Workgroup meeting yesterday.

30 minutes.
