What will the Common Council Talk About Tonight?

Right now it lookalike only a presentation from the Greater Madison Convention and Visitors Bureau and reconsideration of funding for Tree Lane Apartments security. Prepare to see the Mayor at his worst. Oh, and the meeting is NOT cancelled.



MEETING NOT CANCELLED TONIGHT

Good afternoon,

The Common Council IS meeting tonight. You may have received a notice that the meeting was cancelled; however, this should have been a cancellation of the Common Council Executive Committee, not the Common Council.

Again, the Common Council meeting for March 5 is NOT cancelled; they will be meeting tonight as scheduled.

Sincerely,
City of Madison City Clerk’s Office
