(WisPolitics) WED News Summary -- 28 April 2009
WisPolitics News Summary
29 April 2009
Exclusively for WisPolitics Subscribers
From WisPolitics.com...
-- Milwaukee County Exec. Scott Walker touted his small-town credentials
during a campaign stop at a fire station in his boyhood hometown of
Delavan this morning.
The Republican gubernatorial candidate told a group of about 100
supporters that he's proud of his service as Milwaukee County executive,
but stressed that his values of public service were formed during his
youth in Delavan.
"I'm not a politician from Milwaukee," Walker said. "I'm a public servant
who grew up in Delavan."
Walker spent much of his roughly 20 minute talk reminiscing about growing
up in Delavan, holding up his #35 high school football jersey, talking
about his experience working at a local burger joint, and discussing how
his experiences representing Delavan at Badger Boys State and at Boy's
Nation in Washington, D.C. solidified his values of public service.
Walker said he's applied the values he's learned in Delavan to his service
in the Legislature and in Milwaukee, and his campaign is going to be about
"taking those values and applying them around the rest of the state."
Walker also used his talk to take a few shots at Gov. Jim Doyle,
criticizing him over the state's budget deficit and for increasing
spending and taxes during a recession and supporting big government.
"I believe in the people, he believes in the government," Walker said. "I
believe that now is the time for us to move forward."

driving businesses away from the state and contributing to the
predicted $5 billion deficit facing Wisconsin over the next two years.
"Wisconsin's own Harley-Davidson announced that they will lay off up
to 400 more workers," Walker said. "One major reason for these layoffs
is a tax increase approved by the governor earlier this year." …
promised he would repeal the tax increases as governor … would outline
his plans in more detail over the next 18 months. … will include cuts
to state employees' salaries and increasing workers' health and
retirement costs. Walker compared Doyle to ex-Gov. Earl, “Then, as

increases and it made things worse.” By MALAVIKA JAGANNATHAN, GREEN

Here is a draft for review and comment.
May 12, 2009
TO: Lee Holloway, Chairman, Milwaukee County Board of
Supervisors
Sup. Toni Clark, Chairman, Economic & Community Dev.
Committee
FROM: Scott Walker, County Executive
RE: UWM Land Sale
Yesterday the Economic and Community Development (ECD) Committee voted to
recommend approval of the UWM land sale for the School of Engineering and
Cudahy Innovation Park. I am writing today to thank you both for your
leadership in this achievement.
It has been about two years since Chairman Holloway, then ECD Chairman
Michael Mayo and I met with the UW Board of Regents and UWM Chancellor
Carlos Santiago to first discuss and support this project.
While the specifics of the project may have changed somewhat since that
first discussion, our shared commitment to making it a reality has not.
Together, we have created a framework that will allow the UW School of
Engineering to grow and enhance its offerings and educational
opportunities for students. Together, we will create jobs through the
Cudahy Innovation Park making the theory born in the Engineering School a
reality in a new and growing business. Together, we have implemented a
vision for the northeast quadrant that allows for reasonable development
while maintaining green space, addresses necessary storm water management
in Wauwatosa, and showcases a state forest and forestry education center.
Together, we have made Milwaukee County a better place for all of our
citizens and our region.
Again, I want to thank both of you, along with former ECD Chairman Mayo,
for your leadership on this issue. I encourage all of your colleagues on
the County Board to support this effort when they meet on May 21.

The nut of the legal issue the union is taking to the judge is do you have
the authority to reduce hours from that budgeted without the approval of
the board. Bill has written extensively to you about this so I will not
repeat. The nub of our argument is that a budget document is authorization
to spend, not a directive to spend. We are authorized to spend up to a
budgeted level, not required to. This issue of fiscal emergency is not in
the compliant but that does not mean the union might not raise it. In
essence they want to void your entire Executive Directive.
The other thing you need to remember is that all the court is ruling on
today is the temporary injunction. Regardless of how today turns out, the
court still must rule on the issue at hand at a later date.
1) We win.
Option 1 -- proceed as plan with 35 hour workweek and decide next steps
after arbitrator decision in approve August or Court ruling (60 days
maybe). REMEMBER: winning today only relates to the temp restraining
order -- the court would still have rule on the issue at hand.
Option 2 -- refrain from proceeding.
2) We lose
Option 1 -- Announce layoffs. We must give union two weeks notice AND we
should review the layoff plans again. PROS: Shows strong leadership and
confidence in your position. CONS: Likely premature since we are working
on new projections for Monday and may seem vindictive. It could be once
Budget revises our projections that it becomes clear that the 35 hour work
week will not need to remain in effect for full year in which case this
will affect # of layoffs. Consensus of group (Archer, Domina, Gracz,
Below) is to hold off on any announcement until you have all the facts --
new budget #. Announcing layoffs today may also harm our position in
arbitration.
Option 2 -- Send resolution to Board seeking authorization to proceed with
35 hour work week. Let the board know that this is an alternative to
layoffs. PROS: Gives the Board a role to play and if they don't agree,
they are partially responsible for layoffs. CONS: Unlikely they will go
along since they do not believe we have a projected gap.
NOTE: Bill cautioned that you should not be making any statements today
until we see the wording of the judges decision.
3) Court could dismiss as not ripe. Bill said not likely
Bill feels fairly good about a win for us today due to a number of factors
that I will not into now. But remember a win today is only related to the
temporary injunction -- not the issue itself.
If we loose, Bill said we lose for everybody -- you would also need to
issue a new Executive Directive that pertains to just non rep staff since
the your executive order is what is at issue.
