James Rowen: Milwaukee misses the point on race
By James Rowen, April 5, 2007
The commission deserves a failing grade for representing the entire region's taxpayers, since Milwaukee is now a "minority-majority city" and most of the state's minority citizens live in the seven-county SEWRPC region (Milwaukee, Waukesha, Washington, Ozaukee, Walworth, Racine and Kenosha).Rotker asked about five major SEWRPC technical advisory committees, where policy recommendations eventually approved by the full commission are first formulated with help from staff and consultants.
