week of january 22 meetings of possible interest to district 2

Note that in the April Primary Election, Wards 47 and 48 voted at the Pyle Center, but the Clerk’s Office will be splitting those to two different locations to reduce the number of voters who will be in the facility at one time in order to promote physical distancing. Campus wards tend to have a lot of in person voting and election day registrations. The Clerk will be sending postcards to all registered voters in these wards and UW will be emailing all students..

As I learned since, managing other people isn so much the art of orchestrating plans but, as Mintzberg suggests, one of guiding teams through plans gone awry. Here what I learned about how to do that.1. You Don Need The Best People . Thanks to neighbors and stakeholders who worked for over a decade to promote the redevelopment the site. Through a RFP process, we found a developer who had the vision to revitalize the site that reflected neighborhood values and garnered broad support. Thanks to the Baum Revision team for working though all the details of the land use and lease agreements, securing tax credits and other financing to complete the rehab of the building and construct the microlodges.

Aviators may have rocked the scene all of last year (and the year before that) but it’s time to trade in the classics for a brighter upgrade. Mirrored lenses on aviators or wayfarers in colourful jewel tones are all the rage, and it’s best to get in on this just for the sheer fun of it. No more boring blacks or staid browns think bright blues, greens and even violet.

I’m proud that sponsors of the original substitute decided to propose a Response to the Draft EIS and started the community conversation that generated over 1000 emails, pro and con. I’m proud how effectively my fellow east side alders collaborated to send postcards to invite neighbors within and close to the 65 dB noise contour maps to attend a meeting at Sherman Middle School that was attended by over 300 residents. We handed out F 35 ANG EIS comment forms and turned in approximately 35 on Thursday during the NGB Open House.

Ovitz’s group came first, and arrived early. When I showed up, along with a handful of other Times editors and corporate executives, Ovitz had arranged all the seating and I was directed to a place right next to Tom Cruise, who was part of the investment group and was wearing a Notre Dame cap, the school I attended. Tom and I chatted like old friends.
