Ky MIMI BIRD, 1933-2002 Mimi Bird knew just what she wanted for a final resting place. After all, she spent years of her life exploring the Town of Milwaukee Union Cemetery, tucked away north of Bayshore Mall in Whitefish Bay. She remembered running through the cemetery as a girl "to scare ourselves on Halloween". Years later, as a neighbor and a historian, she began tending the litde cemetery and quite literally, uncovering its history. Bird died of emphysema Thursday at the Glendale condominium she called home the last four years. She was 69. "She really died from cigarette smoking" said husband John D. Bird. "That's what did it." She was born Miriam Young in Milwaukee. When she was 4, her parents moved to Whitefish Bay. That was where she grew up and spent her adult life. It was also where she became the undisputed expert on local history, both in the village and the greater North Shore area. In her earlier years Bird had worked as a secretary. She met her husband when their mothers—concerned about their two twenty-something children remaining unmarried—managed to fix them up for a date. She spent the next decades in volunteer work, including at their children's schools, and working part time for the Whitefish Bay Public Library. In 1976, she began to research her genealogy and that of her husband's family. As that was winding down in the early 1980s, Bird heard about the Whitefish Bay Historical Society. Her first project involved locating, photographing and researching hundreds of the oldest homes in the village. All kinds of other research followed. Some of the leads took her to the Town of Milwaukee cemetery. There she looked for sunken spots, sticking a spade into the ground. She found dozens of old fallen tombstones, buried by time under the earth "I just had this wonderful feeling of elation when I'd find an old one," Bird said in a 1983 interview. "The tombstones were the only (surviving) records of births and deaths." Bird filled volumes with everything from real estate records to the early details of village life, its farms, businesses and people. She pored over the minutes of every Village Board meeting from 1892 until 1950. She interviewed old- timers, acquiring old letters and documents. Bird eventually researched the rest of the old Town of Milwaukee, which includes what's now the North Shore area, and the adjacent Town of Granville. And when Whitefish Bay had a 100th anniversary in 1992, she produced a book on local history. In 1991, Bird was recognized by the Milwaukee County Historical Society. Her research continues to be available at the Whitefish Bay Library, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Golda Meir Library, the County Historical Society and the Milwaukee Central Library's local history room. Survivors include her husband, John; sons David J. and Peter E.; brother Carter H. Young; grandchildren; and other relatives...Her ashes will be buried at the Town of Union Cemetery.

  • Transportation Facilities Element
    Chapter 7 TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES ELEMENT INTRODUCTION The transportation system of the Town of Genesee benefits all Town residents by providing for the movement of goods and people into, out of, through, and within the Town. An efficient, durable, cost-effective transportation system is essential to the sound social, community, and economic development of the Town, County and of the Region. An understanding of the existing transportation system and future improvements is fundamental to the preparation of a comprehensive plan for the Town of Genesee. Existing Transportation Network Access is a key determinant of growth because it facilitates the flow of goods and people. The Town of Genesee is well connected to the county and the region through the existing roadway network. Other transportation facilities, such as freight rail, bicycle and recreation trails are located in the Town. Regional Access The Town of Genesee is served well by State and County Highways, which provides easy access to Waukesha and Milwaukee. United State Highway (U.S.H.) 18 runs from the City of Waukesha west to Madison and provides an alternative route for Interstate 94. State Trunk Highway (S.T.H.) 83, which runs north and south, bisects the Town of Genesee into two halves. S.T.H. 83 is scheduled to expand from two lanes to four lanes from County Trunk Highway (C.T.H.) X to the Village of Mukwonago. From C.T.H. X north to S.T.H. 59, S.T.H. 83 will be improved and reconstructed. Construction on these two (2) segments of the road will commence in 2011-2012.

  • Chapter V: Transportation
    City of Beloit Comprehensive Plan Chapter V: Transportation Chapter V: Transportation Work with WisDOT on the Interstate 39/90/43 interchange reconstruction project to ensure its timely completion and better access to the local road network, particularly for lands east of Interstate 39/90. Advance towards construction of the proposed Inman/Freeman Parkway and Highway 81 bypass to serve peripheral area development, relocate heavy traffic, and improve access to the north and west sides. Maintain and enhance the area’s local, collector, and arterial road network, with improvements targeted to key roadways like Prairie Avenue. Enhance Beloit as a walkable, bikable City through developing an interconnected sidewalk and trail network, carefully considering the needs of bicyclists and pedestrians in road design, and requiring designs of new developments that have the pedestrian in mind. In an era of rising fuel costs, enhance in-town and intercity mobility for people and products through investments in busses, other ridesharing, and rail.

Based on Sister Helen Prejean’s book that inspired the movie of the same name, it tells of a nun’s journey as the spiritual advisor of a convicted murderer on Louisiana’s death row. From its shocking beginning to its emotionally searing final scene, this opera changes everyone who encounters it. Its stunning score and intense story combine into a work that “must be reckoned something of a masterpiece – a gripping, enormously skillful marriage of words and music to tell a story of love, suffering and spiritual redemption” (San Francisco Chronicle).

  • City to Back Interstate Option - Beloit Daily News: News
    City to back interstate option - Beloit Daily News: News http://www.beloitdailynews.com/news/city-to-back-interstate-option/artic... City to back interstate option By Shaun Zinck [email protected] | Posted: Tuesday, January 21, 2014 4:00 pm The City of Beloit will officially support an option for the reconstruction of the interchange at Interstate 39/90 and Interstate 43 tonight during the city council meeting. City officials are asking councilors to support the options that build a connection between Milwaukee Road and Gateway Boulevard. There are five potential options that the Wisconsin Department of Transportation has designed. The options are designated 1A, 2A, 1B, 2B and 3B. The main difference between the 1 and 2 groups is the Gateway to Milwaukee connection. The project would create a more free-flowing access between Interstate 43 and Interstate 39/90. Vehicles on the interstates traveling both directions would be able to continue at highway speeds when moving from one interstate to the other. The design will increase safety over the current cloverleaf configuration at the Interstate 39/90 interchange. Interstate 43 also ends at Milwaukee Road with no off ramp, which increases the likelihood of an accident with vehicles traveling at interstate speeds coming up to a traffic light. The city has long supported the connection between Gateway and Milwaukee, and officials have said in the past the road will help workers in the business district access the restaurants and shops more easily than the other options. The council will vote to support options 2A and 2B. According to the city council packet, the engineering staff reviewed all five options, and found “alternative 2...to be in the best long term interest of the city.” Option 2A will cost about $96 million in total costs including structure, non-structure and real estate acquisition.
