Observations from the political winds
It's been a somewhat lackluster spring election in the City of Milwaukee -- except maybe for an open aldermanic seat on the East Side and the Ald. Michael McGee vote -- as incumbents are facing relatively weak opponents who got late starts. But there have been some interesting developments.

City reaches accord on Kilbourn Tower settlement
A settlement that forces developers to pay $950,000 for a patch of land near Kilbourn Tower appears nearly complete. In return, the city will give back some $100,000 in performance bonds the tower took out on the project.
