Summary
The Madison Common Council unanimously approved an ordinance (legislative file 25379) to rezone 33 West Johnson Street from PD to UMX (section 28.022-0074). One registrant was listed and a speaker at public comment was redirected to address the zoning item.
The Madison Common Council on Jan. 27 approved an ordinance to create sections of the Madison General Ordinances (section 28.022-0074) changing the zoning of 33 West Johnson Street from PD to UMX (legislative file 25379). The item was excluded from the consent agenda because there was a registrant; it was moved, seconded and approved unanimously after no formal discussion.
Clerk records show one registrant for the item, Erin Liu of District 9 representing Unite Here Local 1. A public speaker, Aaron Lou, addressed the council during public comment about a labor dispute at the Hilton Madison Monona Terrace and cautioned that workers at the incoming Drury Hotel should not face similar conditions; the Presiding Officer reminded him to speak to the agenda item and asked him to step down when remarks did not address the zoning change.
President Biddiver explained the consent-agenda process and noted item 4 was excluded for registrant input; the council nonetheless moved and seconded the rezoning measure and recorded a unanimous vote in favor. The transcript records the ordinance identifier (legislative file 25379) and the municipal code section to be created (Madison General Ordinances section 28.022-0074). No amendments or conditions were recorded at the meeting.
Next steps: The ordinance change was approved at first reading at this meeting (transcript shows adoption under the agenda format); any subsequent steps, effective dates or implementation actions were not specified in the transcript.
