On Governor’s legal adviser doesn’t have Wisconsin license
Posted on August 7 at 5:06 p.m. ( Suggest removal )
Before all you legal experts go off half-cocked could the Gazette please answer the question about a licensing requirement for the post in state statute?
If this is just more whinging and creebing by WisGOP then it can be dismissed as easily as most of their other statements. If there is a statutory requirement that an advisor be licensed then we need to find out how and why she's held the post.
More reporting is needed. More finger pointing isn't.

@mm- Not only are you unnecessarly negative once again, you are also wrong.

I'd like to ask Gazette readers to ignore the complaints of this reader, "Pat." I'm not sure why s/he is so negative but his/her posts are just very often wrong.
The lake project came in under both estimate and budget after garnering 70% approval from the taxpayers.
The Main St project came in on budget and has gotten national recognition for project management.
There are still issues to be worked out on the redesign of the EMS/Police facility but kudoes go to Alders for not taking the bait on a $400,000 EMS building proposal.
The Evansville Council has been using zero-based budgeting to hold the line on property taxes despite what this one poster claims.

How can Judge Koshnick be a "star of the republican party?" Candidates for Supreme Court are required by law to be non-partisan.
Have our expectations been lowered so far by the choices of Gableman and Ziegler that we're willing to put up with another graduate of Hamline College of Law and Refrigerator Repair out schmoozing for votes among the republicans?
And how dare Scott Walker talk about "failed leadership" during the week that the state had to take over Milwaukee County services to avoid a lawsuit against all of Wisconsin's taxpayers?
Ryan voted for the bailout, van Hollen hasn't reduced the DNA backlog at Jusdtice despite increasing spending, and Fernandez wants to create 7 new unelected taxing bodies just in the Milwaukee School District. This is a gathering of all of the bad idas of the past eight years in one room.
It'll be a fun future if this is the best that the WisGOP can muster.

Not a bad list, Gina.

Evansville's Arts community brings vibrant energy to town. 14 South, Cornstalk Carnival, ECT, E-Arts, the High School and dozens of others combine to put a high gloss on the quality of life.
Charities struggle but persevere in face of tightening economy. Evansville's churches, ECF, AWARE, UWNRC and others make this a town of giving despite rough times in the county.
The Public Works Department and Committee continue to innovate and make do with less. Leased vehicles help cut the budget. An electric vehicle puts the department on the cutting edge of energy savings. Infrastructure improvements enhance wastewater treatment capacity without adding equipment. Creation of a stormwater utility and flood insurance measures put the city out in front of a growing problem statewide.

At least two, farmdude. All Children Matter, the ironically named political committee for the Wal-Mart bucks, was spending heavily on both Davis and Towns.

Go read the proposals. They are recommendations of goals not strategies for implementation. I think they've been fairly conservative in what they're looking for, especially in getting schools off the property tax rolls.

How embarassing. Hannah respectfully tried to get the Gazette to correct an error in their headline and the silly people went off the hook. Some of you look petty and ignorant in this comment thread. You should be ashamed of your behavior.
My condolences go out to both families for their loss and distress. My despair goes out for Rock County if this is the best we have to offer.
