The Mac and Rick show turns into La Crosse (Bubbler) Talk ahead of next week’s committee meetings, where there are two pieces of legislation on those now infamous green water fountains scattered everywhere.

Kiel breaks down what’s on Tuesday’s Judiciary and Administration Committee agenda in references to the bubblers — where we’ve determined there are at least four different versions and not all of them are green.

We also read a statement from the city’s engineering department on confusion about the bubblers. There are 53 bubblers in La Crosse — 35 of those cast iron. 

Bubblers weren’t the only thing we talked about. We also hit on the fact that the Kmart development doesn’t appear on next week’s big committee agendas — a month after their rezoning extensions expired. We also chatted a bit about a housing development, Onalaska's wheel tax — and how La Crosse tries to balance its budget — and the Capital Improvement Plan.

There are some other interesting items on the agenda including an age limit on hemp, a downtown parking assessment process and the Wagon Wheel Trail agreement.
