MADISON, Wis. The City of Madison intends to close the homeless encampment at McPike Park by the end of the month.
In a phone interview with News 3 Now, the City of Madison’s Community Development Division Director Jim O’Keefe said McPike Park was never intended to be a designated homeless encampment. O’Keefe said Mayor Satya Rhodes Conway issued an executive order for temporary permissible encampments on city-owned properties that met a certain number of criteria. Randall Park and the Starkweather Creek Conservancy Area met the criteria. McPike Park is not on the list of approved places.
