Madison District Votes $3.5 Million Bond For Remodeling
The Madison school district placed a $3.5 million bond referendum on the April 3 ballot to fund remodeling four school buildings. Madison also faced a partial smoking ban clash at council sessions with some members lighting up despite calls for voluntary compliance. Housing complaints showed one unsubstantiated blockbusting grievance out of 1,400. Justice Hansen urged tougher sentencing and quicker trials to curb reformist leniency. Educational leaders warned mergers if cooperation fails, while prison inmates described harsher punishment at hearings. Rate increases were sought by two utilities as PSC approved Madison Gas and Electric’s hike affecting about 78,000 electric and 48,000 gas customers.
