Title

Substitute resolution authorizing the honorary naming of W. Martin Drive east of N. 55^th Street in front of the Milwaukee Radio Group property to Bob and Brian Way.

Analysis

This resolution authorizes the honorary naming of W. Martin Drive east of N. 55^th Street in front of the Milwaukee Radio Group property to Bob and Brian Way.

Body

Whereas, Bob and Brian have been radio personalities for 20 years on 102.9 FM; and

Whereas, They have become an institution with their entertainment of hundreds of thousands of Milwaukeeans over the years; and

Whereas, They have raised millions of dollars for charities such as the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, the Hunger Task Force and the MACC Fund; and

Whereas, Section 113-3 of the Code of Ordinances provides for a procedure for the assignment of honorary street names; and

Whereas, Section 113-3-6 specifies criteria for the use of the names of individuals as honorary street names; and

Whereas, The Common Council finds that the honorary naming of W. Martin Drive east of N. 55^th Street in front of the Milwaukee Radio Group property to Bob and Brian Way would for the reasons specified above meet the criteria of s. 113-3-6; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the honorary name “Bob and Brian Way” is assigned to the segment of W. Martin Drive east of N. 55^th Street in front of the Milwaukee Radio Group property; and, be it

Further Resolved, That this honorary street naming shall comply with design specifications determined by the Department of Public Works; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the petitioner has requested that a street sign made by the petitioner be installed, at no cost to the City; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the petitioner shall notify the Department of Public Works of the need to install the honorary street sign; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the Department of Public Works shall install the honorary street name sign within 60 days of receipt of the signs from the petitioner.
