The project gathered data from over 1,500 Madison residents through surveys and focus groups to identify community budgeting priorities, with the goal of creating a budget that reflects community needs rather than government decisions made with minimal public input. The report frames budgets as moral documents and advocates for resource allocation that addresses systemic disparities including police violence, housing affordability, food insecurity, and economic displacement.

To address blight, the Borough established a Blight/Demolition Fund in 2014 funded by real estate taxes (approximately 1.5 mils) and $50,000 annually in earned income tax revenue, supplemented by Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) allocations totaling $96,056 in 2021, of which $45,146 was allocated to demolition projects. The Borough faces potential loss of CDBG funding in 2022 due to Act 179 population requirements and has secured additional grant funding, including approval for $133,000 to demolish three properties.

  • Dallas Municipal Archives User Agreement

    Dallas, TX
    Other

    The Dallas Municipal Archives, a repository within the City Secretary's Office, requires users to sign a binding agreement outlining conduct and handling standards for accessing historical government records. The agreement prohibits food and drink in research areas, restricts personal items to secure storage, and limits writing implements to pencils only while prohibiting ink pens and professional photographic equipment. Researchers must handle archival materials with specified care, including using one folder and one box at a time, maintaining existing order, turning pages slowly by the margins, wearing provided gloves for photographic materials, and notifying archivists of suspected errors rather than making independent corrections. Users retain one-time publication rights through photocopy fees or emailed scans, with additional uses requiring Archives approval, except for classroom use by students and educators.
