Community responds to Brentwood shooting

Last week's shooting on Brentwood Parkway, near Warner Park, has catalyzed a growing response in our neighborhood. Come show your support this Wednesday the 16th:
In response to the shooting that occurred recently on Brentwood Parkway, we will have a Community Response Walk in support of our neighborhood and all the good people living here. City of Madison Police will join us on foot, bicycle, and horseback!

We will meet at St. Paul Church, the parking lot located off of Fremont at 7:00, Wednesday, May 16. The walk will leave from behind the church.

As a group we will then walk down Fremont to Trailsway, up Calypso, cross to Brentwood Parkway on Wyldewood, down Brentwood Parkway and on Trailsway and up Monterey.

We will then have some refreshments and social time in Monterey Park. Others from the Northside will be joining us. Dr. Wayne Dyer says there are only two important things to remember, either we have fear or we have love. Let's all put some love out there.

We plan to continue this on a weekly basis.

Questions – contact Dolly O'Laughlin, President, Brentwood Village Assn. 249-8796 or the Northside Planning Council are 661-0060 ext 2.

Water meters get ire flowing

Yeah, I haven't written in awhile. Turns out that starting a blog while starting a new job and expecting/having one's first baby isn't the best idea. So what's the explosive issue bringing me back to Ruskin Street?

Water meters.
