The public will be allowed to comment on the budget proposal during a hearing scheduled for 6:45 p.m. Monday, Nov. 24, at city hall, 120 Miner Ave. West.
Could be an interesting Public Hearing.

Governor Doyle's Northern Wisconsin Economic Summit was recently held in Rhinelander. NewsoftheNorth.Net reported ...
It’s a chicken-or-egg question of which comes first to the Northwoods: a thriving business community or high-speed Internet?
Judging from the discussion at an advisory task force held yesterday in a meeting room at the Rhinelander-Oneida County Airport, the answer is the latter.
The meeting was convened by State Senator-elect Jim Holperin of the 12th District and included a dozen or so representatives of Northwoods-based businesses and organizations who are affected by the lack of high-speed connectivity in northern Wisconsin...
After the task force meeting, Holperin said he came away with a list of five or six recommendations. “We’ll follow up with one, two or three key ideas,” he said, “and get the state to give a yes or a no answer on them—I think that’s what people are looking for. We have very entrepreneurial people in northern Wisconsin who want a definitive answer—positive or negative—so they can move forward.
For areas that do not have high speed internet this is a very important economic development issue. One person offices even need this service.
