After experimenting with this blog for a few years, we have decided to end it and replace it with a new and better system that is linked into our new website. Unfortunately time constraints have made updating the blog in a timely manner difficult, and as a result this blog has become less relevant. However, our new website offers several ways to keep the information on a blog current and much more useful. Therefore we are going to shut this blog down and transition to a new and improved version in the next couple of weeks. For those of you who are subscribed to this blog, please check out our new website at www.burlington-wi.gov. You can also sign up for our Facebook and Twitter updates over there. Finally, you will be able to subcribe to our new blog when it is up and running.
