Madison (town), Wisconsin
Madison is a town in Dane County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was 6,279 at the 2010 census. The town, although once larger, is now broken up into discontinuous fragments by the much larger City of Madison, and is set to go out of existence by 2022. The majority of the town's current territory is situated along the Highway 12/18, comprising several neighborhoods situated between the south side of the city of Madison, and the north side of the city of Fitchburg. The town also has territory on the north side of Madison near the border with Maple Bluff, as well as a few lots on the west side of Madison near Whitney Way. The Alliant Energy Center of Dane County is situated within the town of Madison. Despite its status as an unincorporated community, the town of Madison provides a variety of services to its residents which are typically only found in incorporated cities and villages, including police, fire and emergency medical services; sewer and water utilities; and three public parks.
==History==
The original town of Madison encompassed approximately , and was organized on February 2, 1846.〔(Madison, Election precinct of, Dane Co )〕〔(Madison, Town of, Dane Co )〕 In 1856 the Wisconsin Legislature chartered the City of Madison, leaving the remainder as the Town.〔(Tenney, H.A. ''Madison, Dane County and Surrounding Towns; being a history and guide to places of scenic beauty and historical note found in the towns of Dane County and surroundings, including the organization of the towns, and early intercourse of the settlers with the Indians, their camps, trails, mounds, etc. with a complete list of county supervisors and officers, and legislative members, Madison Village and City Council.'' Madison: 1877; pp. 543-558 )〕 Most of this land was gradually incorporated into various municipalities, especially the City of Madison, leaving the Town (by the end of the 20th century) as a collection of discontinuous areas subject to annexation. In the wake of continued controversy and an effort in the state legislature to simply abolish the Town, an agreement was reached in 2003 to provide for the incorporation of the remaining portions of the town (by then down to less than , including bodies of water) into the City of Madison and the City of Fitchburg by October 30, 2022.〔(2003 City of Madison, City of Fitchburg and Town of Madison Cooperative Plan )〕
