NPC: Stop in Feb. 28, we’re open

By  Lauri Lee, Chair
Northside Planning Council 

The Northside Planning Council (NPC) is inviting Northsiders to visit Tuesday, Feb 28 at the organization’s new office located at 1855 Aberg Ave. 

An open board meeting at 12:30 pm will start out the afternoon. A reception with light refreshments will follow from 1–3 pm to welcome Justin Markofski and Chris Brockel to their new roles.  This will also be an opportunity to thank Martee Mikalson for serving as the NPC interim executive director and provide a welcome to her special projects coordinator position. 

Guests will be able to tour the offices which are home to NPC and the Northside News which moved into the bottom level commercial space of The Madisonian senior apartments, Nov. 1. 

The organization’s headquarters were moved to FEED Kitchens in 2016 to consolidate expenses. To keep the commercial kitchens safer during the pandemic, non-food-related staff worked remotely and later from an interim office on International Lane. The move to Aberg Avenue allows for small meetings in the NPC conference area. Programming may occasionally be scheduled at The Madisonian in their meeting and community rooms, so tours will also be available to see these spaces.
