And where's Alderman Hernandez?

Still undecided. And unfortunately for him, laid up with a broken ankle. We wish him a speedy recovery.

Of course, since he has nothing better to do at the moment than answer his phone, his constituents can call him at (414) 687-7342 and express their opinions, pro or con, regarding the proposed stadium at Frame Park.

Maybe they should find a cornfield for building the stadium

I wanted to work this quote into tomorrow's Waukesha Freeman column but just couldn't make it fit. A local realtor, referring to the Phoenix Heights neighborhood, told Alderman Hernandez and me after the meeting, "If you build it, we will move."

Billy D's and John's Root Beer Stand this morning

Driving East on Arcadian Avenue this morning in Waukesha I slowed down to count five Waukesha Police patrol cars in front of John's Root Beer Stand and behind Billy D's. There was yellow police tape stretched across the parking lot to the root beer stand.

Nothing yet on the GM Today or JS Online websites.

Update! 12:51 PM We're off to a good start with the new alderman:

Mr. Wigderson,

I made some contacts and this is what I found out. Last night around
bar close, there was a fight at Billy D's. A victim suffered a broken
nose and the suspects fled the scene in a vehicle. somehow the victim
wound up on the ground and was run over by a suspect's vehicle. the
victim suffered non-life threatening wounds, but clearly has a tire
imprint on his back. WPD is still investigating the incident and not
releasing names.

If there's anything else you need, please let me know.

Ald. Hernandez
