At the moment, its hard to know what the week ahead holds. I can do a bit of educated guessing. The weekly schedule is currently giving me this message:
CITY OF MADISON WEB SITE SERVICES ARE DOWN
The City of Madison Website services such as Report a Problem, City News Release System, Police Incident Reports, and Poll Worker Application, etc. will be down for server maintenance.
All of the city agency sites will not be responding to web requests during this downtime. We expect to restore services by Monday, August 18, 2008.
To contact the City Webmaster during this downtime, email us at webadmin@cityofmadison.com.
(The weekly schedule can be found here now.)
So, I’m working off the Legislative Calendar in Legistar, which is
a) not the (more) offical notice of meetings
b) confusing because it often lists things that aren’t correct; and
c) you have to click on the agenda to get more info that you need (where the meeting is!)
MONDAY 8/18/2008
4:00 PM TAX INCREMENTAL FINANCING POLICY AD HOC COMMITTEE
– Final Vote on the Policy?! Seriously, this time!
– Hopefully, we will schedule a public hearing on the policy so we can try to engage the folks who think TIF should be used for economic development. We haven’t had much public input and we have to make sure we haven’t angered the economic development gods.
4:30 CITY-COUNTY LIAISON COMMITTEE
– Discussion of cooperation on City Domestic Partner Registry with the proposed County registry.
4:45 PM COMMISSION ON THE ENVIRONMENT
– Salt usage will be referred til September, if we do this right, we can make it through another winter without doing anything!
– Water Conservation Report
4:45 PM LANDMARKS COMMISSION
–St. Raphael’s Landmark nomination. This is likely to be a discussion about how to make sure this does not happen again.
5:30 PM PLAN COMMISSION
–Reconsideration of Apartments at Sequioya Commons (515 S Midvale). Alder Gruber has changed his mind again, likely after talking to Joe Krupp, the developer.

4:30 PM COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY

– Allied Drive Architect’s Contract
– Truman Olson (again!)
– Villager Mall Update (no link)
5:00 PM ALLIED AREA TASK FORCE

Hopefully, my guessing was good and later today the weekly schedule will be back!
