A New Tune in West Bend

Initally after reading this article on the West Bend tax-credit housing proposal possily being rejected, I was planned to write a post titled "Haven't We Heard This Song Before?" but then I saw this.

West Bend's Mayor did what New Berlin's Mayor failed to do-stand firm in face of opposition and vote for affordable housing.  Kudos to her.

Something to keep in mind.  There were no firm offers on the property in five years. This is not Offer A vs Offer B.  This is Offer A vs No Offer.   Why is that so hard to understand?   A hamburger on the plate is better than a plate with no steak.


Update: D'oh! "West Berlin" corrected to "West Bend" in one paragraph.
