Garbage at the landfill creates biogas as it breaks down, which contains about 50 percent methane. While methane is a harmful greenhouse gas pollutant, it also makes up about 98 percent of natural gas, which we can use as a renewable energy source. Due to changing energy markets, Dane County has chosen to harness this gas through a new method and enhance our environmental stewardship. Beginning this summer, Dane County’s new landfill biogas facility will convert our landfill’s biogas into nearly pure methane gas, which will then be injected into the interstate transmission pipeline that runs underneath the landfill so it can be bought and used as renewable vehicle fuel. This conversion will eliminate thousands of tons of greenhouse gas emissions, a leading cause to the extreme weather events triggered by climate change. Our new facility will also have a biogas offloading station to allow biogas producers, like manure digesters, to inject their purified and compressed gas into the pipeline. Digesters reduce greenhouse gas emissions by collecting and destroying methane from cow manure that would otherwise be emitted into the atmosphere. They also keep manure off the land, which reduces phosphorus on fields prone to runoff during heavy rain events that can get into waterways and cause algae blooms. Due to the increased revenue opportunities for local digesters, this offloading station is expected to spur the development of more digesters in our area and significantly increase Dane County’s lakes clean-up efforts. When complete, Dane County’s landfill biogas project will be the first of its kind in the nation. We’ll create renewable fuel to power thousands of vehicles across the region and country, while keeping our area lakes and air clean for future generations.

Madison Development Corporation (MDC) which owns the parcel bordered by East Washington Avenue, North Second Street, and East Mifflin Street, often referred to as “The Avenue”, has been planning a redevelopment of that property for the past year. Below is a high level time line of that process.
It’s important to note that a committee of interested, dedicated neighbors has been involved in every phase of the process working hard to ensure that as much as possible the best interests of the entire Emerson East neighborhood is considered and addressed.
4/18/2018 – MDC hosted a meeting to present its proposal to the neighborhood and Avenue tenants. MDC provided a site plan which included a new 4-story 30-unit apartment building located in the southwest corner of the property fronted by East Washington Avenue, and a new 6-unit townhouse style building fronted on East Mifflin Street.
9/26/2018 – Alder Larry Palm hosted a neighborhood meeting at which MDC and its architects presented elevations of the two proposed buildings which provided building design elements for the first time.
10/17/2018 – MDC made a formal application to the City of Madison Plan Commission based on the proposal presented at the September meeting.
12/5/2018 – The formal proposal was presented to the City of Madison Urban Design Commission (UDC) for review/approval. At that meeting several Emerson East residents spoke in opposition to the proposal. Following deliberation, the UDC voted to “refer” the proposal to a future UDC meeting. The UDC cited several issues with both site plan and design which led to the referral.
1/9/2018 – UDC and its architects presented an entirely new proposal to the neighborhood which now consisted of a single 44-unit apartment building fronted on East Washington Avenue and running parallel with the west side of
the property. This new proposal attempted to address the issues cited at the December UDC meeting.
2/27/2019 – UDC met and reviewed the new proposal. Again, several neighborhood residents voiced concerns with the new proposal. After deliberation, the UDC voted to approve and made an advisory recommendation to the City of Madison Plan Commission.

PFAS Chemicals and Water from Well 15Frequently Asked Questions published by Madison Water Utility (MWU), adapted by Indira Ceylan
What is the current status? Low levels of PFAS chemicals were detected in water at two wells, Well 15 on East Washington Avenue and Well 16 on Mineral Point Road. As of March 4, 2019, MWU will temporarily rely on other well facilities to serve the Well 15 area on the city’s east side as it waits for a recommended PFAS standard from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services. The recommendation is expected this spring.
What are PFAS? Perflourinated compounds are part of a widely-used class of chemicals known as PFAS, or Per- and Poly-fluoroalkyls. These chemicals are used in food packaging, stain resistant clothing, Emerson East and Eken Park Neighborhoods

firefighting foams and nonstick cookware.
Is my water safe to drink? Yes. Given that PFAS levels in Madison Wells 15 and 16 are well below the EPA Lifetime Health Advisory level and haven’t varied much since monitoring began, Public Health Madison Dane County does not recommend that residents invest in filtration systems or use bottled water at this time. The water is not considered a potential threat to health and is safe to drink. This recommendation also applies to households that include pregnant women, infants and children, and the elderly since the EPA advisory considers these more sensitive populations when it is formulated.

Another great year for real estate in Emerson East and it continues to be a sellers market! Our neighbor-hood had 28 homes sell this past year and the previous year was 31. The average sales price had a slight decrease to $231,043 vs. $232,079. However, the average price per sq ft increased by $5. The average time on market for homes is about the same as the previous year at only 10 days which is a short time and still indicates a sellers market.
Seventy-five percent of homes sold at or above
list priceThe market is competitive since there are more buyers seeking to buy and not enough sellers. Buyers are eager to purchase since 75% of the homes sold at or above list price and some sold for up to $20,000 over list price. And homes continue to receive multiple offers.
Because of the high demand, many buyers are willing to remove contin-gencies and add creative contingen-cies that will benefit the seller. And there are ways to not have a sales contingency if you are looking to sell and buy in this busy market.
Realtors have the knowledge to let you know what is needed since we are the most knowledgeable if you are selling or buying. Since it’s not always about pricing, we can help guide you on the offer details so you get an accepted offer and make it to closing.
After this challeng-ing winter, find ways to spend less in utilities
If you currently own a house, you may be thinking about doing home improvements and figuring out ways to spend less in utilities. Especially after the challenging winter we have had. Green Madison is a great resource. You can host an Energy
House and receive a free energy audit on your home. Who wouldn’t want to learn smart ways to improve in their home? And they will share info with you and your friends about any rebates and incentives to help you offset the cost of these improvements. For more details, go to GreenMadison.org.
Another great program: MadiSUN Solar Energy Program. Solar panels will reduce your electrical bill and it is also a clean, renewable energy source. Participants can receive a Federal Tax Credit equal to 30% of the cost of their system. Through Wisconsin’s Focus on Energy program, solar electric systems qualify for up to a $2,000 cash rebate. Madison homeowners also have the ability to finance 100% of the cost of their system through a low-interest, fixed rate loan through the Solar Energy Loan Program. You can find more info at https:// madisunsolar.com.
With any improvements on your home, think about what return you are expecting on these updates. Improvements may help sell a home. However, you may not receive a direct return on what was spent. Think about how long you will be staying in the home and decide if the expense is right for you and your long term plan. A realtor can help advise you too.
If you don’t currently own a home and you are thinking about buying a home soon or in a few years, it is good to start looking now. It is less stressful when you have more time to educate yourself on the market and then you can go full speed when the time is right.
Home prices continue to rise and interest rates
may tooIt is also wise to meet with a lender early on. They can go over your budget, different loan options and figure out what is right for you so

1you can plan accordingly. Waiting too long to save more on a down payment may not always be the best plan since home prices will continue to rise and interest rates may too. Rates are still low, around 4.375% for a 30 year fixed rate mortgage, and you can do as little as 3% for a down payment. Talk to your lender and they can help you decide.
