Negotiators for the city and JDS Development missed a deadline for a draft deal on the Judge Doyle Square project in downtown Madison because the city’s finance committee wants the project to require significantly less in public assistance.
Initially, the $174.2 million JDS project — which includes plans for a new downtown hotel plus housing and commercial space — called for $47.2 million in public assistance, plus the need for an additional $28.3 million in city funding, mostly to replace the current city parking on the Government East Block.
