[...] As I’ve stated before on this blog, I have taken a different view on this issue. I want to see a formal study of all options when it comes to the bridge before deciding that a simple redecking in its current footprint is what’s necessary. [...]

As I’ve said all along, I appreciate Supervisor Jursik’s perspective on this issue. I just disagree with it. While the delays she references are certainly concerning, I just don’t think we can say what a study will result in before the study is actually done. I’m sure the study will have redecking as one of its options … and I’d be fine with that, if that’s the best option. But what if there are better options that are brought forward?

I make it a general rule not to respond to blogs as their is little editorial control; I am making an exception since the author is an elected official in the district I represent; I invite everyone that is interested in this issue to actually read the Milwaukee letter. This letter was not intended to be made public. What it sets out is an agenda to use an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) to set up a false agenda as a means of delaying the engineering study to redeck the Hoan. A study that had been promised in September by the DOT. Now in November, the DOT continues to break its promise; is it little wonder that words are heated. The studies that Alderman Brooks is willing to entertain basically mean disconnecting the Hoan from the Interstate; this is not acceptable to the south shore.

Great to see a reasoned approach to the issue from someone that doesn’t live in the City of Milwaukee. Thank you!
