Title
Substitute resolution authorizing and directing the Commissioner of Public Works to execute a Revised Project Agreement between the City of Milwaukee and the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WISDOT) to include street lighting in the reconstruction of West Center Street between North 92nd Street and North 76th Street, in the City of Milwaukee with 80% Federal and/or State aid under the Surface Transportation Program (STP).
Analysis
This resolution authorizes and directs the Commissioner of Public Works to execute a Revised Project Agreement with the WISDOT for the inclusion of street lighting work in the reconstruction of West Center Street between North 92nd Street and North 76th Street. The City share of this street lighting work is estimated at $49,000.
Body
Whereas, The Common Council of the City of Milwaukee adopted Resolution File Number 010810 authorizing and directing the Commissioner of Public Works to execute an agreement with the WISDOT for programming and reconstruction of West Center Street between North 92nd Street and North 76th Street with 80% Federal and/or State aid funds under the Surface Transportation Program; and
Whereas, The Project Agreement did not include street lighting as an eligible cost; and
Whereas, Street lighting costs are compensable because the construction project makes it necessary to install temporary lighting during construction and narrowing the street impacts the lighting system's existing underground components and pole locations; and
Whereas, The City of Milwaukee has requested and the WISDOT has submitted a Revised Project Agreement to include street lighting as a cost participating item (80%) for City execution; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Commissioner of Public Works is hereby authorized and directed to execute the Revised Project Agreement for the inclusion of street lighting work in the reconstruction of West Center Street between North 92nd Street and North 76th Street, a copy of which is attached to Common Council Resolution Number 031608 and incorporated in this resolution by reference as though set forth therein in full; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the City Engineer is hereby authorized and directed to approve and make periodic payments to the WISDOT upon receipt of invoices for the City's share of the additional street lighting costs to the project.
