Redistricting 2021 Is Happening NOW; District 2 Included

The City of Madison's Ad Hoc Redistricting Committee is seeking feedback from the public on two scenarios for alder redistricting.

District 2 Expected to Change

Most alder districts are anticipated to change/shift, particularly due to population growth in the center of the city and on the outskirts. In the current alder district map above, you can see that District 2 will need to shrink by about 1,500 residents, so some areas of our neighborhoods are likely to end up in other alder districts. Complicating any redrawing and shifting is District 4, which encompasses much of downtown and will need to reduce by about 5,000 residents, and District 8, which is overpopulated by more than 1,900. The interplay between the districts that need to loose population and those that need to gain population is complex, but generally the redistricting committee has an eye out for increasing equity while keeping communities of interest together.

One of the two scenarios includes splitting the Tenney-Lapham Neighborhood in two with the eastern half moving to District 12, currently represented by Syed Abbas. Both scenarios include District 2 shifting a bit to the west by adding more student neighborhoods and/or more of State Street. Both options include District 2 losing other eastern neighborhoods, including possibly Sherman Terrace Condos, the River's Edge complex and other apartments along Fordem Ave.

The primary opportunity for residents to provide their thoughts and feedback on alder redistricting is the week of September 20th, through a variety of methods:

• Visit any City of Madison library, where redistricting scenario maps will be displayed alongside comment forms from September 20th to the 26th. Redistricting staff will be available at select libraries during certain times of the week – visit the redistricting web page for details.

• Visit the City's online interactive redistricting map to provide comments on redistricting scenarios.

• Attend a virtual redistricting informational meeting on September 22nd at noon or 6 p.m. Redistricting scenarios can be reviewed on the redistricting web page, which also has meeting registration links.

• Email comments to redistricting@cityofmadison.com

Interested residents may also register to speak at an upcoming Redistricting Committee meeting. With the short timeline for redistricting, interested residents should make sure their voice is heard now!

Note that the redistricting process is compressed due to the COVID-delayed release of 2020 Census data. The Redistricting Committee will make a recommendation to the City Council on October 7th to allow the Council to hold a public hearing and approve a redistricting plan on November 2nd. This will allow the County to approve their supervisory district plan before nomination papers are circulated by candidates running for office in the Spring 2022 election.

Transit Network Redesign: Public Meeting Sept. 23

Metro's Network Redesign project has moved into Phase 2 - examining the transit network alternatives. Input received from the first phase of the project was used to develop two contrasting network alternatives, the Ridership Alternative and Coverage Alternative. These alternatives are not proposals, but are intended to show the extremes of what might be possible in our community.

• Ridership Alternative Map
• Coverage Alternative Map

Public Information Meeting

Attend a virtual public information meeting on Thursday, Sept. 23 at 6 p.m.

More Information

Brush Collection Ending and Fall Yard Waste Collection Underway

Brush collection is ending and may have ended already for your street. Find more info here. Please visit this website to learn your City leaf collection dates and how to prepare your yard waste.

In addition, the leaves are already falling and our lakes need your help to remove them. When leaves are left in the street during rainfall, they create "leaf tea", which is one of the worst sources of active phosphorus pollution in our lakes. Rain washes the abundant nutrients into our beloved lakes, where it causes excessive algae and weed growth. We are asking for your assistance. In addition to properly disposing of your own yard waste, please pledge to keep the leaves in front of your property off of the streets and gutters.   Don't wait for a street cleaner to remove them - if you see leaves in the street, broom or rake the leaves off the street onto the grass for later collection.

Remember, just one pound of phosphorous from decomposing leaves can generate 500 pounds of lake weeds!

Shared Streets Update - Delayed Until Next Year

 

From City Traffic Engineering:

Unfortunately the Shared Streets planned for implementation on E. Mifflin St. and Sherman Ave.will not be happening in 2021. The City did not have the resources to reinstall these two locations and it is now getting very late in the year for installation. However, a Shared Street is still planned for both locations for 2022. In addition, an evaluation of the traffic concerns is still planned so that appropriate infrastructure changes can be piloted in the future that will address traffic safety issues at these locations.

BRT Community Meeting - 30% Project Design

Mark Your Calendars: Wednesday, September 29 - 6 p.m.

Staff will present the 30% design drawings for the east-west MetroRAPID Red Line. See proposed runningway improvements and station area plans in more detail, share comments and ask questions.

Improved Dane CORE Rental Assistance Launched

Good News from the Tenant Resource Center: TRC has ~$58,000.00 available in security deposit funds!!

Not as Good News:  The funds all must be allocated by the month end (Sept 30) AND they come with rigid federal requirements and a large amount of paperwork BUT it's what we have and we are eager to get these out into the community before they expire!

Visit the TRC Security Deposit Pre-Screening Form to learn if you are eligible.

Also, the Dane CORE Emergency Rental Assistance program 2.0, an expanded program to keep every household in Dane County safely and stably housed, has launched.  What this means for the program is that:

• More funding is available than before – and for more than just back-owed rent. The program has expanded to fund utility assistance, internet assistance, and prioritizing forward rent and security deposit assistance to our most vulnerable community members.
• Many dedicated community partners are working on this project. In the City of Madison, the Community Action Coalition of South Central Wisconsin (CAC), Meadowood Health Partnership, FOSTER of Dane County and African Center for Community Development are working with residents to navigate this process. Outside the City, Urban Triage continues their work on this program in providing resources to residents in navigating applications from start to finish. Their priority is to ensure community members stay safely housed as we continue to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tenants need to understand their rights. Eviction is a formal legal process that a landlord must follow in order to force someone from their property. In Wisconsin, however, only the courts can order someone be removed from their home. Information explaining eviction rights for tenants in Dane County can be found in English here and in Spanish here.

Zoning Text Amendments

 

Agenda Item 15

SUBSTITUTE - Repealing and recreating Section 28.185 to remove consideration of proposed future use for demolition applications and create limited administrative approval for some demolition categories.

Sponsors: Patrick W. Heck, Lindsay Lemmer, Satya V. Rhodes-Conway

DRAFTER'S ANALYSIS:  This ordinance repeals and recreates the existing demolition ordinance, maintaining most of the same approval process but with two notable differences:

 

First, the new ordinance retains the requirement that the Plan Commission approve the demolition, but removes consideration of the proposed future use. This change is because using a demolition ordinance to deny an otherwise permitted use is likely illegal and using the demolition ordinance to review an otherwise conditional use is redundant. Zoning is a legislative power. Like other cities in Wisconsin, Madison regulates land use in districts through a mix of permitted and conditional uses. Madison's Zoning Code defines a Permitted Use as one "which may be lawfully established in a particular district or districts, provided it conforms with all requirements and regulations of the district in which such use is located." Regarding permitted uses, the Wisconsin Supreme Court has recognized that "permitted uses...allow a landowner to use his or her land...as of right... and that rights of ownership and use of property have long been recognized by this state and constitutionally protected." The Office of the City Attorney recommends the ordinance be changed to remove the consideration of proposed future permitted uses from the demolition ordinance in order to avoid future legal challenges.

 

The same constitutional analysis does not apply to the consideration of proposed future conditional uses because conditional uses are not "by right" uses. However, conditional uses are already separately reviewed by the Plan Commission pursuant to MGO § 28.183. Accordingly, providing for separate review of conditional uses under the demolition ordinance is redundant.

 

Second, the new ordinance creates an avenue for the City to allow administrative approval of demolitions under certain circumstances. All demolition permits will continue to be reviewed by the Landmarks Commission for as a required threshold, regardless if they go to the Planning Commission or administrative review. The new ordinance creates Subsection (8), which creates an avenue for the City to allow administrative approval of demolition under certain circumstances. Proposed Sub. (1)-(3) are demolitions that already are essentially allowed administrative approval under the current ordinance. Sub. (4) provides for administrative approval for demolitions where the resulting project will include city-funded affordable housing. Most significantly, this section creates a provision where more administrative approvals could be added as deemed appropriate by policy makers.

 

This substitute incorporates staff feedback clarifying ordinance language, eliminating internal redundancies and editing for format and typos. In addition, it includes in this historic value assessment archeology in recognition that the historic value of the property might be a burial site, not a structure. Most of Madison's archeological properties have tribal associations and due to forced relocation, tribes largely do not have the ability to be involved with commenting on projects that impact where their family is buried. The preservation review is one way to engage with tribal partners and give them a voice in this process for sacred sites that we forcefully took away from them.

REPORT OF COMMON COUNCIL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

 

Agenda Item 22

Establishing Purpose Built Fulltime Men's Shelter Search Criteria

Recent Legislative History

7/6/21 COMMON COUNCIL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE    RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL TO PLACE ON FILE - REPORT OF OFFICER

8/30/21 CITY-COUNTY HOMELESS ISSUES COMMITTEE    Return to Lead with the Recommendation to Place on File to the COMMON COUNCIL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

Note: The Common Council Executive Committee voted 4-3 to recommend to Common Council that this item be placed this item on file. I voted with the majority because city staff and other stakeholders have already been working hard for many months to identify appropriate sites for the permanent men's shelter. While most of the suggested criteria are being followed by staff, they need flexibility to consider sites that may not meet all of the them. In addition, some of the criteria could be considered problematic in some situations, so I believe it is best for Common Council to let staff due their work in collaboration with alders on prospective sites. The City-County Homeless Issues Committee also voted to recommend that this item be placed on file.

 

Agenda Item 24

Amending Sections 2.01 and 2.15 of the Madison General Ordinances to clarify the process for designating a location and the means of conducting individual Common Council meetings.

REPORT OF FINANCE COMMITTEE

 

Agenda Item 27

ALTERNATE: A resolution to provide a plan for wage increase parity to general municipal employees.

Recent Legislative History

9/13/21 FINANCE COMMITTEE    RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL TO ADOPT - REPORT OF OFFICER

Note: The full text of this item can be found here. While I support wage equity for non-represented city employees, the methods for getting there are tricky and I am hesitant to commit to matching any future raises obtained by protective services employees. MPD and MFD have fully recognized unions and labor agreements with the City due to exemptions in 2011's heinous Act 10, so the City must accept any negotiated raises or those raises determined through mediation or arbitration for MPD and MFD. The City's financial situation is precarious, as always and particularly due to federal COVID funding being one-time influxes, so I hesitate to commit to matching additional and undefined raises in future years, although I hope we can do so.

 

Agenda Item 37

SUBSTITUTE Amending the 2021 Adopted Operating Budget to transfer funds within agency budgets based on projected spending through the 2nd Quarter of 2021; authorizing a distribution from the residual incremental tax revenues of Tax Increment District 25; transferring federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to the General Fund and Monona Terrace; and addressing a deficit in the Room Tax Fund

Recent Legislative History

9/13/21 FINANCE COMMITTEE    RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL TO ADOPT (15 VOTES REQUIRED) - REPORT OF OFFICER

 

Agenda Item 44

Accepting additional Emergency Rental Assistance Program funds from the U.S. Treasury Department, awarded under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, to sustain efforts to prevent evictions and promote housing stability for eligible households in Dane County affected by the COVID-19 pandemic; amending the Community Development Division's 2021 Operating Budget to reflect receipt and use of these funds; and authorizing an amendment to the contract between the City of Madison and Benevate, Inc., which governs the use of Benevate's Neighborly Software system in administering Federal Emergency Rental Assistance Program funds provided to the City.
