Chris Woodard on upcoming La Crosse city council meeting, running for reelection

The smells from the brewery, upcoming city development, and running for reelection on city council with Chris Woodard in the WIZM studio for La Crosse Talk last week.

Woodard, who represents District 9 and is running against Aron Newberry, recaps some committee work that was done last week, some development projects that are in the works by Three-Sixty Real Estate Solutions, including the Kmart lot and more housing by Mayo.

La Crosse Talk airs weekdays at 6-8 a.m. Listen on the WIZM app, online here, or on 92.3 FM / 1410 AM / 106.7 FM (north of Onalaska). Find all the podcasts here or subscribe to La Crosse Talk wherever you get your podcasts.

We also talk about his first term on city council, some legislation he’s led — “fixing” feral cats and banning big animals in shows — and how he feels about the direction the city is headed, including on homelessness.

We also discussed City Brewery and the smells that have come from that building. Since this conversation, the La Crosse Board of Public Works did make a decision on the parking situation that we talked about that coincided with the brewery smells.
