The Wisconsin Union Directorate voted Wednesday to decline sponsoring the 2009 Mifflin Block Party, citing a lack of time and money to properly host the event.
According to Union President Jeff Rolling, WUD was originally interested in sponsoring the event after being approached by Ald. Mike Verveer, District 4, in early March.
However, after further examining the full cost of the event and the timeframe they had to work with, he said WUD ultimately decided against it.
