Just a reminder about some of the upcoming events this week:
- Monday, November 30: A public hearing on the proposed 2010 city budget is scheduled for 6 p.m. at City Hall. Have your voice heard during this critical time … and then stick around for the Finance Committee and Plan Commission meetings that evening. One of the items on the Plan Commission agenda directly impacts the 4th District: discussion regarding planned and future land use and zoning of 1214 Rawson Avenue and other residential properties to the west, currently zoned M-2 industrial. I must admit I don’t know about this issue, but I promise to learn more quickly and keep you updated as best I can.
- Tuesday, December 1: A Common Council meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. at City Hall. The biggest action here is the anticipated passage of the 2010 budget, which you will also be allowed to comment on at the meeting. A public hearing on the South Milwaukee School District budget is also planned for 6 p.m. at Lakeview Elementary School.
- Wednesday, December 2: The city’s second H1N1 clinic runs from 3 to 7 p.m. at City Hall, and a school district budget hearing is planned for 6 p.m. at E.W. Luther Elementary School.
- Thursday, December 3: Another opportunity to hear about the school district budget, this one at Rawson Elementary.
- Friday and Saturday, December 4-5: I’ll put a quick plug in here for the Trinity Lutheran Church (my church) cookie sale at M&I Bank, 1001 Marquette Ave. Stop by and buy some homemade Christmas cookies from 1 to 6 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to noon Saturday.
I’ll keep you updated on the meetings in future blog postings.
