2. OTHER DISTRICT 2 UPDATES
 
126 Langdon Proposal
 
Steering Committee Meeting on May 12 for 126 Langdon Street Proposal 
 
The neighborhood steering committee evaluating the apartment building proposed at 126 Langdon St. (Hub II) is holding a virtual meeting on Tuesday, May 12, 6pm, using Zoom. The steering committee is organized by the Mansion Hill District of Capitol Neighborhoods, Inc. If you'd like to participate, contact committee chair Bob Klebba (bob.klebba@gmail.com) who will email you with the Zoom meeting invitation and details. You must contact him in advance in order to participate via video or phone.
 
Proposal at May 18 Plan Commission Meeting
The proposal will be considered at Plan Commission's May 18 virtual meeting that starts at 5:30pm. I will be sure to publish Plan Commission meeting participation details in next week's Alder Updates when the agenda is available. You can also give input to all Plan Commissioners by emailing SPrusak@cityofmadison.com or you can email me with your comments. The developer, Core Spaces, has made some design modifications in response to Urban Design Commission and neighbor input. That latest proposal version can be found here. Note that UDC earlier did not recommend approval of the proposal's request for 2 bonus stories that are allowed in this area if certain conditions are met. That finding is advisory only to Plan Commission who will consider the needed approvals on the 18th.
 
Sherman Avenue Partial Closure Starts This Week 
 
Similar to East Mifflin St., the city is adding some of Sherman Avenue to its initiative to assist community members in having safe, healthy spaces for walking and biking during the COVID-19 Safer at Home order. Starting early this week, Sherman from N. Thornton Street to N. Brearly Street will become a "shared street". This signed street closure will widen the distance for pedestrians and bikers to safely travel with enough social distancing. Vehicle drivers with destinations along Sherman Ave. such as residents, delivery providers, emergency service personnel and City services will continue to have vehicle access, as will the #2 Metro bus. Street parking should not be impacted.
 
400 E Wash Proposal
 
400 Block E. Washington Proposal Updates and Meetings
 
The James Madison Park District steering committee that is reviewing the LZ Ventures redevelopment proposal for the north side of 400 block of E. Washington Ave held a virtual meeting on the evening of May 7. Another committee meeting is likely for the week of May 18 when committee input to the city will be formed. If you'd like to participate and/or stay informed contact Eli at president@capitolneighborhoods.org or Joe at jmartino@isi360.com. The developer's application to the city can be found here. 
 
Proposal at Urban Design Commission on May 27
The proposal is expected to be formally considered by the Urban Design Commission at their May 27 virtual meeting. I will publish UDC meeting participation details in my Alder Updates when available, as well as how to email input to UDC. The proposal could move to Plan Commission as soon as June 8 if approved by UDC.
 
Landmarks Commission Findings
The proposed demolitions of the existing homes and commercial buildings on the site were reviewed by the Landmarks Commission at their May 4 meeting. In its advisory recommendation to Plan Commission, Landmarks found that
 
 "... the building(s) has historic value related to the vernacular context of Madison's built environment, or as the work/product of an architect of note, but the building itself is not historically, architecturally or culturally significant."
 
Landmarks findings related to proposed demolitions are limited to one of three possible findings: (1) the buildings have no historical value, (2) as above, or (3) that the building(s) has historic value based on architectural significance, cultural significance, historic significance, as the work/product of an architect of note, its status as a contributing structure in a National Register Historic District, and/or as an intact or rare example of a certain architectural style or method of construction.
 
As interpreted by Landmarks, a consultant hired by the developer and the city's preservation planner did not make the case that any of the buildings would fall into finding (3) and Landmarks unanimously supported finding (2), but these decisions are often a combination of objective and subjective considerations. Local preservationist Gary Tipler, on the other hand, reported that several of the buildings are historically significant and/or could be the work of an architect of note. All that said, Landmarks' finding that (2) applied may or may not carry weight in subsequent city staff reports on the proposal and/or when Plan Commission considers the proposed demolitions. Note that Plan Commission will also consider various other requested approvals needed for the proposal to move forward.
 
Census 2020
 
Complete the 2020 Census ASAP!
 

Census data determines how more than $675 billion in federal funds are distributed to communities across the country for healthcare, affordable housing, childcare, education, transportation, and more. That's over $2,000 per person for Madison and Dane County every year. In fact, public health experts, government officials, and first responders all rely on population data to make critical decisions in crises like the one we are currently experiencing.

Madison residents can fill out the census over the phone, by mail or online at my2020census.gov.

BID Bingo

Dine Downtown Bingo

Dine Downtown BINGO is a special program to encourage the community to actively support restaurants and specialty food businesses in downtown Madison. This promotion will run for the month of May and will be a restaurant "bingo-style" game with prizes available to participants. There will be 4 sets of 3 cards issued, one set each Friday for the month of May. Each set of cards will feature 20-30 open businesses.

This project is a fun, safe, and easy way for the community to support and enjoy downtown Madison restaurants. Card sets, participating locations, and details here.

Streets Division

Only Half of Spring Tree Plantings Will Occur Due to COVID-19
 

The Streets Division's Urban Forestry section's spring tree planting season is underway. Due to the pandemic and social distancing guidelines, the number trees planted this spring will be half of what crews would plant during a normal spring season. Many residents who are expecting a tree to be planted on the city right-of-way terrace in front of their home this spring may instead receive the tree during the fall planting season. More details here.

Food Scrap Recycling Starts at Drop-Off Sites
 

For the first time in Madison, food scraps recycling will be available at all three of the Streets Division drop-off sites. This is a special voluntary recycling program available only at the drop-off sites and is scheduled to last until October 31, 2020. Residents who wish to participate should follow the rules outlined on the food scraps recycling guide PDF  available at the Streets Division's website and available for pickup at the Streets Division's drop-off sites. More details here.

Curbside Collection of Yard Waste Has Ended

On May 4, Streets Division collection crews completed the spring yard waste collection rounds. Residents should not place yard waste to the curb at this time. Rather than placing yard waste to the curb, residents can take the material to one of the Streets Division drop-off sites. Residents may also want to try composting or mulching grass clippings into their lawn. More details here.

City Allows Delay of Property Tax Payments Without Penalty Amid COVID-19 Pandemic

Dane County has announced that they will give local units of government the flexibility to delay the due date for property taxes to October 1, 2020. Recent state legislation authorized the ability for counties and their communities to take this step in an attempt to offer payment flexibility for individuals and families who may be struggling to keep up with expenses during this difficult time. 

Last week Common Council approved a resolution that implements such a provision for Madison residents. Dane County must still formally approve its Resolution 60350 on May 21, which will then allow Madison and other municipalities to enact these provisions. In Madison, property tax installment payments will be due in full on May 31 and July 31 as usual, but if not paid until as late as Sep. 30, 2020, no penalties or interest will accrue.

East Gorham St. Sanitary Sewer Project 
 

The Engineering Division hosted a May 7 virtual public information meeting focusing on planned sanitary sewer improvements for East Gorham Street between N. Livingston and N. Blair Streets. This project will involve some temporary lane closures on E. Gorham during the anticipated construction period of mid-July to late October, Visit the project's webpage that will be updated throughout the construction and has a recording of the public information meeting. You can also signup to receive emails about the project on that page.

May 21 Public Information Meeting for East Dayton Street Reconstruction
 
A virtual public information meeting will be held on May 21 at 5:30pm to discuss an upcoming E. Dayton Street reconstruction project. City Engineering is estimating an August project to reconstruct the two blocks of E. Dayton Street between N. Blair and N. Livingston Streets. This project includes asphalt pavement resurfacing, spot repairs of curb and gutter, sidewalk, and driveway aprons and utility replacements of storm sewer, sanitary sewer, and water main facilities. Visit the project's webpage that will be updated throughout the construction, where you can signup to receive emails about the project and register for the public information meeting. You must register in advance in order to participate.

Agenda Item 11
NEW BUSINESS
 
At this time, a consent agenda will be moved with the recommended action listed for each item EXCEPT: 1) items which have registrants wishing to speak. 2) items which require an extraordinary (roll call) vote and are not included on the consent agenda by unanimous consent. 3) items which Board Members have separated out for discussion/debate purposes.

Breese Stevens Field informational reports regarding the 2020 Fan Access Plan and Neighborhood Impact Plan.
RECOMMEND ACCEPTANCE OF THE REPORT
 
Agenda Item 19
Request from Big Top Events for a pyrotechnic display at Breese Stevens Field prior to May 1, 2021
DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATION
Note: Item 19 is related to the previously publicized possibility of an event at Breese Stevens over the July 4th holiday that would include a fireworks display. TLNA Council supported the event concept for the July 4th holiday. Given that the July 4th event is increasingly unlikely to be held due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Big Top is considering holding a similar event sometime before May 1, 2021, subject to all Public Health concerns. The fireworks I have heard about are estimated to be half as loud as traditional explosive fireworks, go at most 300 feet into the air, leave no debris, and would be fountain-style rather than explosive. The fireworks component of a show would be estimated to last at most 15 minutes and be similar to those you might see in a large indoor arena or at an outdoor arena. The pyrotechnics are anticipated to part of a family-friendly music and entertainment event that is only a concept with ttendance numbers would likely be similar to a smaller concert or soccer match. Details are very much to be determined and subject to approval by several city departments.
 
Agenda Item 22
Adopting the Oscar Mayer Special Area Plan as a Supplement to the City of Madison Comprehensive Plan. RETURN TO LEAD WITH THE RECOMMENDATION FOR APPROVAL TO THE PLAN COMMISSION
