Here’s some items of interest on the agenda for Tuesday’s Common Council Meeting:
At 5:30, we’re having a special meeting on some of the many transit/transportation alternatives that the City is in the midst of considering. Dave Trowbridge will give us an update on Transport 2020 and the Trolley Study.
#5 – Approving the City paying for insurance and city police services for Elver Park Fireworks.
#7 – Approving a study to look at our hiring practices.
#18 – Approving a study on the gender and salaries of top management positions. (Race/ethnicity and disability were added to these resolution at Affirmative Action, however, that is currently not reflected in the resolution. I believe that there will be a substitute resolution prepared.)
#19 – Approving a study of the gender of persons appointed to city committees, commissions and board. (Race/ethnicity and disability were added to these resolution at Affirmative Action, however, that is currently not reflected in the resolution. I believe that there will be a substitute resolution prepared.)
#35 – Approving 2007 Neighborhood Grants.
#41 – Rejecting the proposal to ban alcohol in Law Park. (For some reason, even though the Park Commission voted against the proposal and that should be the recommendation, the agenda says “approval”.
#83 – Annexation of parts of the lands in the Cherokee Park Special Area Plan to the City of Madison.
#84 – Allowing Neighborhood Electric Vehicles on roads that are 25 miles per hour or less.
#89 & #90 – Approving unlimited bus pass programs for MATC and Edgewood.
