We simply do not have enough affordable housing in Madison and Dane County. This is a topic we cover regularly on A Public Affair. As both the city and the county prepare their upcoming budgets, the issue of how to address housing, especially for unhoused folks, is front and center. On today’s program, host Dana Pellebon speaks with Alder Davy Mayer and Supervisor Heidi Wegleitner. They talk about the different ways that the city and the county have supported and can support the Dairy Drive community, especially as the winter approaches.
