  • Madison Community Foundation 2020 Annual Report
    Annual Report 2020 On the Cover The Downtown Street Art and Mural Project As the nation struggled to contain the coronavirus pandemic, it was further rocked by the death of George Floyd on May 25 while in the custody of the Minneapolis police. Floyd’s death set off protests across the nation, and around the world. In Madison, peaceful daytime protests were followed by looting in the evenings, which forced many businesses to shutter their storefronts with plywood. The Madison Arts Commission, funded in part by a Community Impact grant from Madison Community Foundation (MCF), responded to the bleak sight of State Street by creating the Downtown Street Art and Mural Project, which engaged dozens of local artists to use these spaces as an opportunity for expression and civic engagement. More than 100 murals, including the one on our cover, were painted in and around State Street, creating a vibrant visual dialogue addressing racism, memorializing lost lives and inspiring love. Artists participated in panel discussions and were highlighted in local and national media. “Let’s Talk About It: The Art, The Artists and the Racial Justice Movement on Madison’s State Street,” a book focused on the project, was produced by (and is available through) the American Family Insurance Institute for Corporate and Social Impact. In addition, several of the murals will become part of the permanent collection of the Wisconsin Historical Museum. MCF’s long-standing vision — that greater Madison will be a vibrant and generous place where all people thrive — is impossible to achieve without ending racism. We remain committed to this journey.

  • Menomonee River Watershed Restoration Plan Executive Summary
    Watershed Restoration Plan Menomonee River Chapter 1: Menomonee River Watershed Restoration Plan Executive Summary 1.1 Introduction The primary purpose of this Watershed Restoration Plan (WRP) is to identify specific actions that can be implemented between 2010 and 2015 to improve water quality within the Menomonee River and its tributaries and present general recommendations for activity beyond 2015. These actions have been identified based upon a consideration of many factors, including overall effectiveness, scientific underpinning, regulatory considerations, and stakeholder goals. This WRP describes the characteristics of the Menomonee River and its watershed, focusing on those topics that are directly related to implementation (Figure 1-1). Information provided includes existing (Baseline Year 2000) and Year 2020 land uses, Baseline Year 2000 and Year 2020 water quality conditions, and the most significant sources of pollution. Water quality goals selected by the Southeastern Wisconsin Watersheds Trust, Inc. (SWWT), based upon scientific, regulatory, and stakeholder considerations, are also presented and explained, as are the load reductions that will be needed to meet those goals. The reductions are based upon projected loads for the Year 2020 and as such account for future growth. This WRP is the culmination of historical and recent activity to protect and restore water quality within the greater Milwaukee region. Most significantly, it builds upon the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission (SEWRPC) Regional Water Quality Management Plan Update (RWQMPU) and Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) 2020 Facilities Plan and incorporates the input from members of the SWWT and its associated Menomonee River Watershed Action Team (WAT) and Science Committee. 1.2 Key Elements of the Menomonee River Watershed Restoration Plan This WRP follows the Clean Water Act guidelines for developing effective watershed plans.

    NATIONAL HISTORIC LANDMARKS Dr. Harry A. Butowsky GEOLOGY THEME STUDY Page 1 Geology National Historic Landmark Theme Study (Draft 1990) Introduction by Dr. Harry A. Butowsky Historian, History Division National Park Service, Washington, DC The Geology National Historic Landmark Theme Study represents the second phase of the National Park Service's thematic study of the history of American science. Phase one of this study, Astronomy and Astrophysics: A National Historic Landmark Theme Study was completed in l989. Subsequent phases of the science theme study will include the disciplines of biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics and other related sciences. The Science Theme Study is being completed by the National Historic Landmarks Survey of the National Park Service in compliance with the requirements of the Historic Sites Act of l935. The Historic Sites Act established "a national policy to preserve for public use historic sites, buildings and objects of national significance for the inspiration and benefit of the American people." Under the terms of the Act, the service is required to survey, study, protect, preserve, maintain, or operate nationally significant historic buildings, sites & objects. The National Historic Landmarks Survey of the National Park Service is charged with the responsibility of identifying America's nationally significant historic property. The survey meets this obligation through a comprehensive process involving thematic study of the facets of American History. In recent years, the survey has completed National Historic Landmark theme studies on topics as diverse as the American space program, World War II in the Pacific, the US Constitution, recreation in the United States and architecture in the National Parks.
