Marijuana buds are shown at Huron View Provisioning in Ann Arbor, Mich., Thursday, Jan. 28, 2021. The first year of state-licensed recreational marijuana sales in Michigan saw $511 million of sales in recreational and $474 million in medical sales, generating over $100 million in tax revenue, but the state also found that the industry drastically failed to attract minority business owners.

MADISON, Wis.– A proposal of zoning changes was nearly complete and ready to be introduced to the Madison Common Council last spring, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was pushed aside until tonight.
The pandemic was just a small interruption in what Alder Patrick Heck called a “slow process” to make housing affordable in Madison.
“There were staff and alders working on this before I even became alder,” Heck said.
It’s an issue Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway made her passion project.
The council has not voted yet on the agenda item as of 10:15 p.m. Tuesday.
The proposed facility is located on Zeier Road next to East Towne Mall. The City and the county included $3 million each in their budgets to acquire the land and cover any needed renovations. If approved, the property on Zeier Road will cost $2.6 million.
