May 26, 2010 5:10 p.m. | An agreement could be near that would resolve a judicial misconduct case accusing Cudahy's former municipal court judge of allowing more than 1,000 cases to backlog.
A notice issued Wednesday by the Wisconsin Supreme Court says the former judge, John Zodrow, and the state Judicial Commission made "substantial progress toward a proposed stipulation."
If such an agreement is reached, it should be filed for consideration by the high court before June 15, the notice says.
The Judicial Commission filed its complaint in November, estimating that 3,500 cases were awaiting a decision by Zodrow. He told the commission at the time that he thought 1,000 to 1,500 cases were awaiting action, some dating back seven years or more.
Zodrow held the part-time position from 1999 until he was defeated by attorney John Dobogai in the April election.

May 13, 2010 11:22 a.m. | Cudahy - The city is taking steps to land a "big box" retailer at Pennsylvania and Layton avenues.
The Community Development Authority this week said it favors a large retailer at the 30-acre site rather than at the site of the failed Iceport complex at Nicholson Road and Layton Ave., according to an announcement from the city.
Lara Fritts, the city's director of economic development, will be marketing the property with Cobalt Partners of Milwaukee at the International Council of Shopping Centers' Global Retail Real Estate Convention in Las Vegas on May 23-25, the announcement says.
