Summary
The commission is weighing whether to amend Chapter 109 so the city can take in housing discrimination complaints directly, including cases involving housing vouchers and lawful source of income. The City Attorney's Office says legal and operational questions remain, so the changes are on hold while the commission studies Madison's approach.
