Who’ll foot Mifflin party bill?

By changing the date of the Mifflin Street block party, students hope to avoid a finals-week hangover. But a group of Madison alders wants to hand students a different kind of rude awakening.

Eleven of 20 City Council members sent a letter Tuesday to Mayor Dave Cieslewicz asking that an itemized bill be sent to Associated Students of Madison for the cost of moving the Mifflin Street block party from May 7 – the Saturday before finals week – to April 30.
