LA CROSSE, Wis. (WKBT) Building a new shelter for Weigent Park garnered most of the attention during a public hearing Monday on the city of La Crosse’s Capital Improvement Plan for the next five years.
Several residents at the hearing lobbied hard for a new shelter at the park at 1400 Cass St. Neighborhood groups have raised money to chip in and expected the city to budget $200,000 in the five-year plan at least as a show of good faith, they noted.
