Madison’s city council considered approving a motion at a meeting Tuesday to discuss amending a previously amended ordinance.
But Mayor Paul Soglin said he will most likely veto the proposed discussion item if approved, before the city council’s next meeting, Tueday, Sept. 25.
When pressed for details on his opinion of the proposed amended amendment, Soglin ruled the question “out of order.”
Council President and Ald. Shiva Bidar-Sielaff, District 5, presided over council for the first two hours of the discussion because Soglin said he was late trying to flag down a taxi on State Street.
“I waited for hours and no cabs ever came,” Soglin said. “I’m the mayor, dagnabbit!”
Also at their meeting, the city approved funding for various planning and design projects that may or may not go into effect for next year’s capital budget and the benefits and hazards of beekeeping within city limits.
