Statement from the Office of Mayor Rhodes-Conway Regarding Edgewood Lawsuit

Edgewood High School sued the City of Madison in federal court alleging religious discrimination. As a result, Mayor Rhodes-Conway has withdrawn her sponsorship of an ordinance repealing Edgewood's Master Plan, stating:

"The City of Madison does not discriminate against any religion. Edgewood High School is free to pursue the repeal of its Master Plan utilizing normal city processes. I encourage Edgewood High School to work with its neighbors to resolve ongoing tensions over the proposal to have a limited number of night games."
