Milwaukee is witnessing tremendous growth and activity. New buildings, outdoor spaces, attractions, and landscaping are adding to the fabric of our neighborhoods. These awards celebrate the innovative efforts that make our city a great place to live, work, and have fun.
Bill McElroy, Assistant City Engineer for Chippewa Falls, did a great job talking about the good work getting done, “but there’s a long list of other projects that are still waiting.”

"We're in a better position now than we've been in past 15 to 20 years," Mayor Johnson says of the possibility of working with lawmakers in the state Capitol, including Republicans, but acknowledges the political and other difficulties ahead in reaching any deal.

The @WisPolicyForum will be tracking this fall's municipal referenda to local voters the same as we do with K-12 school referenda.
Did you know? Fire and EMS departments across the state are experiencing staffing and response challenges. Learn more from the Wisconsin Policy Forum wispolicyforum.org/research/…

Yes, we do have to do something about shared revenue! @GovEvers is right — local government is where the rubber hits the road. Quality of life services all across Wisconsin depend on common sense approaches from Madison to fund services delivered by local government. – at Milwaukee, WI
Wisconsin @GovEvers at @WisCounties: “We have to do something about shared revenue. We have to. Counties, municipalities and school districts are doing the work.”

Thanks to all the candidates who threw their hat in the ring this spring cycle!
Democracy only works when there's fair competition in the marketplace of ideas.
Way better than, “This meeting will come to order.” Adults have so much to learn from 7-year olds.

Today is Local Election Day in Wisconsin. When you go to cast your ballot, take a look around at your neighbors who have volunteered to operate that polling place and thank them for their service. They are your front line of democracy.
The League’s @DeschaneJerry talked with @PBSWI Frederica Freyberg today. As he said, “The people running local elections are your neighbors - the people you see in the grocery store.”

Such a classic Gene story, brought to us by his sister.
Also, I like to imagine this took place at the Popcorn Tavern.
Gene Purcell dedicated almost his entire professional life to public media before he tragically passed away in July. In tribute, his sister fondly remembers the time he impersonated Pat Benatar’s public relations guy during a night out in La Crosse. wisconsinlife.org/story/reme…
Thanks, Molly. One more thing to feel good about...😕
To cap off this spectacular year, the Farmer's Almanac says we should expect one of the coldest and longest winters in years jsonline.com/story/weather/2…
