Chris Abele was sworn-in as the new County Executive by Milwaukee Municipal Judge Derek C. Mosley on April 25, 2011. On April 27, Abele issued his first veto over the County Board’s resolution to spend $1.2 million in decorative upgrades to the O’Donnell Park parking structure. He also noted that a veto of the redistricting plan appeared unlikely to be sustained and returned unsigned the board’s plan for redistricting, allowing it to move forward. Abele noted that the board moved too quickly and did little to change the status quo. (Photo by Pat A. Robinson).
