A young attorney who has served as Madison’s bar czar for the past two years will join an attorney who moonlights with a salsa band, a civil servant who has served three mayors and a former Kerry-Edwards campaign staffer as Mayor Dave Cieslewicz’s assistants.
Cieslewicz lauded Joel Plant as one of the key players in the development of last year’s successful Halloween celebration and predicts Plant “will bring that consensus-building approach to a wide range of issues in our office.”
The 29-year-old Plant has been the city’s alcohol policy coordinator since 2005.
