 NOVEMBER 16, 2021

MILWAUKEE || Near West Side Business Improvement District (NWS BID) and Department of Public Works owe the neighborhood residents and commercial stakeholders an explanation of why the "street improvements initiative" was not introduced with cost benefits for the 

North 27th Street Rapid Implementation Initiative.
