Sept. 8 Neighborhood Meeting for Redevelopment Proposal for 668 State St.
On Thursday, Sept. 8 at 6:30pm, join me for a virtual neighborhood meeting to take a first look at a proposed redevelopment of 668 State Street. The property owner, 668 State LLC, is seeking approvals to construct a four-story addition atop the existing two-story commercial building at 668 State Street. The proposed addition will contain 24 student-oriented apartments on floors 3-6 with floors 5 and 6 set back approximately 30' from the front façade. The existing commercial space on the two lower floors and in a finished basement will largely remain. No automobile parking is proposed; parking for 24 bicycles will be provided inside the building with 2 additional outdoor bicycle stalls.
This proposal was submitted in 2017 and was fully approved, but the project did not move forward at that time. The property owner is submitting the same project as was approved in 2017. They anticipate submitting their city applications in September. The project will require approvals from the Urban Design Commission and Plan Commission.
After the Sept. 8 meeting, the Campus Area Neighborhood Association may form a neighborhood steering committee to further evaluate the proposal.
Registration for the Zoom meeting is required and can be found here.
State St-Campus Parking Garage Proposal at UDC on Wednesday
On Wednesday, Sept. 7, the proposed redevelopment of the State Street-Campus Parking Garage at 415 N. Lake Street will be considered by the Urban Design Commission. The UDC will be receiving an informational presentation and no votes will be taken. There won't be a formal UDC consideration until later this fall after the proposal's land use applications are filed with the city.
Mortenson Development has been chosen by the City as the developer of the student-focused apartments proposed for above a new city-owned parking garage that will include a new intercity bus terminal. The existing parking garage along Lake Street will be demolished and replaced while the garage section to the east of Hawthorne Court will remain. Some mixed-use space is planned for the first floor. Mortenson is proposing some beds with reduced rents, but the amount of those reductions and the number of affected beds is under negotiation with the city.
Details on the UDC meeting can be found below in "City Meetings of Interest" and materials for their consideration can be found here.
The Campus Area Neighborhood Association is forming a neighborhood steering committee to further evaluate the proposal. All are welcome to participate in that process and CANA suggests signing up via this form. Getting on the committee's email list via that form is a great way to stay informed about the project even if you can't attend all of the meetings.
Also note that city staff is hosting a State Street Campus Garage Virtual Public Information Meeting, on Wednesday, Sept. 14, 4:00pm, for those who want to learn more, particularly for those who work and live nearby.
Dane CORE 2.0 Portal for Pandemic Rental and Utility Assistance is Closing
In September of 2021, Dane County and the City of Madison launched Dane CORE 2.0, a federally funded emergency rental assistance program designed to help renter households struggling to meet their housing costs. The program has distributed nearly $40 million of rent and utility assistance to more than 6,300 households.
During the early days of the pandemic, Dane County and the City of Madison sought these federal funds to assist those in our community struggling to pay rent. While Dane CORE partners have distributed a tremendous amount of federal assistance, many in our community continue to struggle to meet their basic needs.
At this time, the federal funds available to Dane CORE 2.0 are nearly depleted. The County and City have already requested additional funding from the federal government through the U.S. Department of Treasury and are working with our federal Congressional delegation to advocate for additional funds. We are hopeful that more funding will be provided, but we don't yet know when that decision will be made or how much funding might be offered.
Many households already have requests for assistance pending. To better ensure funds are available to pay existing eligible claims, we have decided to close the Dane CORE 2.0 application portal as of 12:00 AM on Sept. 15, 2022. The Dane CORE 2.0 program partners will continue to process applications received prior to the portal closure at 12:00 AM on September 15.
Applications will be processed under existing program criteria, in the order in which they are received, until remaining funds are gone. To learn about program eligibility and apply for Dane CORE 2.0, please visit www.danecore.org.
If new federal funding is provided, important changes will be made regarding its use if applications are re-opened after September 15.
In addition to providing direct rent support for high needs households, the City and County also funds services through the Eviction Diversion and Defense Partnership. The Program provides legal representation to renters who face eviction actions, mediates disputes between tenants and landlords, and helps address other potential threats to housing stability. Services through the Eviction Diversion and Defense Partnership are currently available at no cost to eligible households, and they will continue after the Dane CORE application portal closes on Sept. 15.

Sponsors: Satya V. Rhodes-Conway, Patrick W. Heck And Yannette Figueroa Cole
Recent Legislative History
8/29/22 FINANCE COMMITTEE. RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL TO ADOPT (15 VOTES REQUIRED) - REPORT OF OFFICER
Fiscal Note
The proposed resolution authorizes the acceptance of a Wisconsin Department of Administration Law Enforcement Agencies Safer Communities grant. The $833,338 grant will reimburse expenditures from March 15, 2022 through June 30, 2023 for certain costs associated with Madison Police Department (MPD) hiring, training, testing, and equipping law enforcement officers; updating technology and policies; and implementing new crime-reduction initiatives.
The resolution also amends MPD's 2022 operating budget to appropriate $669,938 of the grant funding for purposes delineated in the resolution. MPD will propose a plan as part of their 2023 Operating Budget Request for using the remaining grant funds ($163,400). The grant does not require any city matching funds and there is no impact on the levy.
Note: The body of this resolution includes the following -
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Police Department will use $669,938 as follows:
• Provide $2,000 sign on bonuses and up to an additional $2,000 for out-of-state recruitment bonuses for its 2023 spring recruit class, as permitted by the grant funding guidelines, if appropriated by the Common Council in its 2023 operating budget ($110,000)
• Improve its community policing efforts organizationally by training officers in stratified policing supervisory and operational model to improve efficiency, effectiveness and accountability ($98,000).
o Stratified Policing is an award winning evidence based policing strategy that incorporates Problem-Oriented Policing, Crime Analysis, and Accountability within all levels of the organization. The Stratified Policing implementation model is essential to understanding organizational culture and crime behavior in Madison. The assessment includes an examination of current data and technology capabilities, supervisor and officer training, crime analysis products, crime reduction policies and procedures, as well as the organizational structure and unit/personnel functions.
• Purchase and enter into a contract for ShotSpotter Connect patrol management software to improve officer pro-activity in addressing data-driven beat-level issues, concerns and trends (using the stratified policing operational model) that will improve neighborhood-level response with the goal of better preventing and addressing crime, pending APM 3-20 approval (Attorney's, Risk Management and IT) ($175,000)
o Connect is patrol management software that uses data driven analytics designed with civil liberties protections. The platform uses crime data, and community specific input data, to help police optimize patrols, deter crime, and improve community relations. Traditional methods of policing rely on person-based and historical crime data, which we believe leads to unintentional bias. Bias in any manner is ineffective law-enforcement and creates racial disparities. Connect gives command staff better visibility into officer activity, which helps to control "over-policing", and provides a transparent mechanism for community members to understand officer behavior that builds police legitimacy and makes communities feel safe. This product is not gunshot detection software.
• Electric bicycles ($30,000) that would allow officers to better engage the community, respond to calls quicker, and arrive on scene with less fatigue then conventional bikes.
• Ballistic helmets for all officers to provide officer safety for potential use during active shooter responses ($221,400).
• Cover the costs of some officer initial issue supplies, equipment and uniform costs allow for the reallocation of $35,538 which will be used then for one-time equipment and supplies purchases.
Agenda Item 83
A Resolution authorizing the Mayor and the City Clerk to enter into a multi-year, competitively selected service contract with Masabi LLC for a Comprehensive Fare Collection Solution for Metro Transit and amending the 2022 Capital Budget to add $3,983,291 in Federal funding to Metro's Transit Technology System project.

DRAFTER'S ANALYSIS: This ordinance amends several sections of Chapter 28 to create "Missions Boxes" as a permitted use in all residential, mixed-use, commercial downtown and urban and employment districts. Mission Boxes are structures constructed or authorized by the owner of a parcel for the purpose of providing free items to the public, including, but not limited to, books, food, clothing and home goods. Mission Boxes will be permitted setback encroachments in the front, side and rear yard setbacks and MGO 28.132(1) is amended to reflect that allowance. Mission Boxes will also have several supplemental regulations, including size and structural limitations such as restrictions against impeding the right-of-way. MGO Sec. 28.151 (Supplemental Regulations) is amended to reflect those restrictions. Finally, the "Accessory Uses and Strictures" section in the Downtown and Urban Districts Use Table 28E-2 in MGO Sec. 28.072 is reordered in alphabetical order.
Note: This item formalizes allowing various types of Mission Boxes, sometimes referred to as "Little Free Libraries" and other "Little Free" concepts.
