Salvation Army Affordable Housing Project Denied WHEDA Tax Credits

In this year's Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA) competition, the proposed affordable housing project that is part of the Salvation Army's redevelopment of their current shelter site at 630 E. Washington, was not awarded its requested tax credits. This will leave a substantial funding gap (as much as $7M) for the affordable apartment building proposed along E. Mifflin. The Salvation Army's demolition of the current shelter and building of an enhanced purpose-built shelter for women and families, currently planned to start demolition and construction in the Fall of 2022, is expected to be a separately funded project.

WHEDA's denial of the Salvation Army's tax credit application was announced just this past week, so I assume that the Salvation Army is evaluating their options for funding the affordable housing component. I'll let you know when I hear of updated options and/or plans. Note that many other affordable housing projects, including some others in Madison, were also denied tax credits as WHEDA's priorities have partially shifted to rural areas and other areas of the state.

Update on E. Washington Speeding From MPD, Traffic Engineering, and Other City Staff

We know that alders too have been hearing from constituents regarding loud and speeding traffic on East Washington, the outer loop and other areas. Unfortunately, as the weather warms up, the activities increase. City staff from Traffic Engineering, Madison Police Department and the Mayor's office are continuing to meet to work on solutions, or at least changes, that can help with the issue. Unfortunately, this is a decades old issue, and the information we continue to receive is that most of the perpetrators are teenagers from outside communities. We understand everyone's frustrations though, as this is not only a quality of life issue, but also one of safety.

This past weekend staff erected message boards for drivers and adjusted traffic signals to slow folks down. Beginning next weekend and for the rest of the summer, MPD will be using additional enforcement, will continue message boards and additionally use engineering to alter travel lanes in another effort to reduce speed. Many are familiar with those efforts from last summer.

Staff are discussing other options and one that can be effective is yard signs. Staff is hoping that area neighborhood associations will consider a combined effort in that area. They will also be investigating costs and other issues on that potential effort.

Lt. Anthony Fiori, who has been involved in this effort for quite some time, reports that one way he attempts to reduce the behavior is to talk to the individuals involved. They are teens who drive to area parking lots, hang out, sometimes even skateboard, and then continue their drives. His direct message to them has been, 'we welcome you to Madison, but slow down and stop revving your engines.' In some cases, it can make a difference.

As you know there is not one solution to this issue, so staff will continue to use education, engineering and enforcement.

The Future of the Community Fridge Remains Unknown

As I reported earlier and as you likely have heard through media reports, the Community Fridge in the 1000 block of E. Johnson, was the subject of complaints from residents in early April. City staff did not conduct a proactive inspection of the site, but was instead reacting to the complaints. It is unfortunate that some felt the need to report the site given that the Madison Community Fridges volunteers have been providing an important food resource for some of those most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic fallout. This location had been operating since August 2020 with no concerns or complaints, from what I know, and has been a prime example of how mutual aid efforts can build community and do good.

After staff told the fridge organizers that they must become code-compliant by April 8, I facilitated a 30-day extension so that the organizers now have until May 8 to find a path forward, but obviously that date is coming soon. I continue to meet with the organizers and staff from Zoning, Building Inspection, and Public Health to find a path forward for both the short term and long term. It may be that organizers can modify the operation to be more compliant with city ordinances for the short term. In the longer term, and perhaps even for the shorter term, it is likely is that they will search for a new location because the property owner of the current location has already indicated that the current tenants (who are fridge operators) are moving in August.

Another option is to change city zoning ordinances, Wisconsin building code, and Public Health regulations to make the current operation compliant, but there would be substantial hurdles to doing so and it could not be done before the fridge is expected to leave the E. Johnson site. More likely is a hybrid approach - some changes to city ordinances and some changes to fridge operations. I will continue working with all parties involved to explore the various options and hopefully find a resolution quickly.

UDC Consideration of 12 N. Few Proposal On May 12

The Urban Design Commission will consider the proposed redevelopment at 12 N. Few Street on May 12. UDC will consider two items:

the proposal's compliance with Urban Design District #8 standards, and
a proposed amendment to UDD #8 to decrease setback requirements at the corner of N. Few and Curtis Court that allow a new building to be as close as 5 feet to the Curtis Court sidewalk. The remainder of Curtis Court's required setback would remain at 15 feet.

The proposed redevelopment consists of 8 commercial spaces with 8 one-bedroom apartments. The application and a staff report from the earlier UDC informational presentation are posted here and updated plans, staff reports, etc., should be posted there as the UDC date draws closer.

The proposed demolition of the current addition on the N. Few Street side of the building and the demolition of the larger Scooter Therapy building's back wall was considered by the Landmarks Commission in March. They found that the current Scooter Therapy building held no significant historic value. While many may find that the building does hold historic value, the Landmarks Commission must base its finding on current historic preservation standards. This finding of Landmarks will be forwarded to the Plan Commission who will consider the proposed demolition and UDD #8 amendment, likely our May 24 meeting. I will post agendas and participation options as they become available.

1046 E. Washington Restaurant UDC Consideration

The Urban Design Commission could consider the restaurant proposed at 1046 E. Washington on the ground floor of Arden at one of their May meetings, but it is not yet clear when they will take up this application. The owners of Red Sushi on W. Washington are planning a fast-casual restaurant that would open late summer or early fall if all approvals are obtained. Project plans can be found here. UDC will consider the proposal's compliance with Urban Design District #8 standards. At a yet-to-be determined date, Plan Commission will consider the proposal's Conditional Use Permit requests for a restaurant and for outdoor seating. If approved, the restaurant will have both indoor seating and outdoor patio seating along the alley between Lyric and Arden. The Alcohol License Review Committee will also need to consider the restaurant's application for a liquor license at a future date. TLNA Council earlier voted to support the restaurant's applications for Conditional Use Permits.

May 11: Capitol Neighborhoods, Inc., Hosts Virtual "Cookies with a Cop"

Join your neighbors and Madison Police Department Representatives for a conversation about recent events in Madison's downtown neighborhoods. The event will be held on May 11th, via Zoom. Discussion will begin at 7:00 PM and conclude at 8:00 PM.

The event will begin with brief introductions of the police representatives, then proceed to questions submitted to the organizers prior to and during the meeting. Attendees will be able to submit questions to the organizers by email at Info@CapitolNeighborhoods.org before the meeting or through the Zoom chat feature during the event. Attendees are strongly encouraged to email questions or concerns prior to the event in order to help facilitate a more productive meeting. If we have extra time after our submitted questions are answered, we may open the event to follow-up Q&A from attendees. In that event, we will ask that folks limit their questions and comments to three minutes per person in order to ensure that other neighbors also have the opportunity to speak.
