In Case You Missed It

The Capital Times had a couple of articles prominently featuring Monona this week.

The good folks over at The Natural Step Monona made the Business section in a story on Greening the holidays.

BTW, the MJS also has a Green Guide on its web site. Note the saving money part. YOUR GREEN GUIDE: Ideas to save money, help the planet

The Monona city budget also made the news in an excellent article by Karyn Saemann on the strains the levy cap is putting on city governments, like Monona that have to stay under the levy limit mandated by the state. Cities taxed by fiscal caps

Monona is really up going to be against in the 2009 operating budget. It is entirely possible we will decide to ask the voters if they want to exceed the 2% levy cap. If we do decide to put that question on the ballot, then we will need to do so sooner rather than later. In order to place such a question on the April ballot, the city council would need to act soon.
