The mission of the Common Council is to represent the residents of Madison by promoting the safety, health, and general well-being of the community by incorporating the City's core values into their work with currently available resources. The Council Office staff supports the alders in these efforts.
The City of Madison’s Planning Division has submitted both the West Area Plan and Northeast Area Plan for approval, with both plans scheduled to be introduced at the Common Council’s meeting on July 16, 2024.
Alders from the City of Madison Common Council and members of the City’s Economic Development Committee went on a tour Saturday of some of the many local businesses that have benefited from City funding.
