Alder Disclosures:

1. As then District 1 Alder, I was invited to join the Board of Directors of Hope & And A Future, a property in Middleton (prior to it’s attachment to the City of Madison - HAAF was attached to the City of Madison March 2023. With redistricting, HAAF is now in District 20).
2. April 18, 2023, I was sworn in as the new Alder of District 20.
3. Annually, I have filed the required disclosure of my position on the HAAF Board of Directors.
4. As the New Alder of District 20, I facilitated NONE OF THE FOUR COMMUNITY MEETINGS ON THE HAAF expansion.
5. I committed to representing District 20 with Integrity and through Trust. Building community is difficult to achieve without Integrity and Trust. After much deliberation, I have decided on the following pathway forward: (a) my involvement as a HAAF Board Member has become an unintended distraction, not to be used as grounds to discredit my participation in discussions at the Planning Commission meeting. The registered speakers, the staff report and, ultimately, the deliberations by the Commissioners will be the factors in formulating a recommendation(s) to Council without a recommendation from the District 20 Alder; (b) I will recuse myself during the Common Council’s consideration of the zoning petition and recommendation(s) of the Planning Commission at the June 20 Common Council Meeting; and, finally, the most difficult of my decisions, (c) I have submitted my resignation as a HAAF Board Member effective June 12, 2023.
