UPDATE: Pavilion ‘Roofgate’ continues

l3wis 2Comments

UPDATE: Apparently the contractor doesn’t seem to care if anyone knows they are working on the building, so why hasn’t the Pavilion said anything? It is also preparing the NE corner for the new outdoor sculptures, so I am sure there will be a ribbon cutting once installed, and it would be kind of weird to see contractors working on the roof that was supposed to be fixed already.

Last week a person who works very close to the Pavilion told me they have been loading materials (roofing) on the roof with cranes last week and continue to work on it. So I drove by this morning and noticed scaffolding on the roof. There was also 3 commercial trucks parked by the work area; An HVAC contractor, a drywall contractor and a roofing contractor. Notice the logo on the roofing truck. This is a company that specializes in this kind of roof repair. So I’m just wondering, when is the administration going to tell the citizens they are repairing the roof. And who is paying for this? #militantclosedgovernment

How’s that Panhandling campaign working out for yah?

Took this picture last night about 9 PM on the corner of 10th and Phillips. Oh the irony of a person panhandling under a sign that doesn’t do a damn thing. It was funny to because two middle aged men stood about 20 feet from him on the sidewalk and were mocking him and laughing, he was irate with them and screaming at them while holding his sign. These folks would not be panhandling if they weren’t getting money. It is obvious your cute little signs and billboards are NOT working.

This of course can mean there may be bank auctions on the properties. I have suggested to city officials that they purchase 2-3 buildings, convert them to studio transitional housing, gift the repaired properties to the St. Francis house and contract with them to handle transitional housing. Unfortunately some folks will be displaced while this plays out in the courts. Hopefully the county and city will step up to help folks find other housing.

So ‘Norm’ gave me this idea today;

‘The cummerbund helps with the aching back’

I am not sure what to think of it, it’s kind of funny, but a little out of place. So I am running a contest, whoever writes the best caption I will take to Dakota Craft Links for a wonderful sausage lunch . . . but yah gotta sit and eat it with me 🙂 Oh, and I run a dictatorship, so I decide, but feel free to nag me about who you like the best.

Speaking of silliness, looks like Noem is going to have some good attendance at her little speech at DSU on Saturday. I think it is going to be a madhouse. The organizing of protesters on social media is exploding. I know several folks from SF attending the event. I’m sure the Madison town cops are preparing by skipping Taco Johns for lunch this week 🙁 and only eating coleslaw and Bevita breakfast bars.
