Title

Resolution authorizing the City of Milwaukee to accept title to property from the Neighborhood Improvement Development Corporation and to exchange property with Marquette University High School for the dedication of an alley in the block bounded by West Michigan Street, North 35^th Street, West St. Paul Avenue and North 39^th Street, in the 16th Aldermanic District. (DCD)

Analysis

This resolution will permit the City of Milwaukee to accept title to land and to exchange property for the dedication of a public alley.

Body

Whereas, Properties on the east side of North 39^th Street between West St. Paul Avenue and West Michigan Street lack a public alley and the property owners have been accessing the rear of their properties via the athletic field owned by Marquette University High School at 3800 West St. Paul Avenue; and

Whereas, Marquette University High School has offered to convey a portion of its athletic field to the City of Milwaukee ("City") for dedication of a public alley to improve access to and security for the adjoining properties in exchange for two City-owned vacant lots at 333 North 37^th Street and 332 North 38^th Street; and

Whereas, The vacant lots at 333 North 37^th Street and 332 North 38^th Street are not suitable for development due to the lack of public improvements and Marquette University High School has proposed to pave the lots to provide additional parking for its athletic facility; and

Whereas, A new public alley also would require access to North 39^th Street and the Neighborhood Improvement Development Corporation has acquired the property at 422 North 39^th Street that it has offered to convey to the City, which would dedicate the majority of the lot for the alley; and

Whereas, The City Plan Commission has determined that the City-owned lots and the remnant that results from the alley dedication are surplus to municipal needs; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee that the City is authorized to accept title to a portion of the property at 3800 West St. Paul Avenue from Marquette University High School based on the legal description to be provided by the City Engineer and to accept title to the property at 422 North 39^th Street from the Neighborhood Improvement Development Corporation for dedication of a public alley; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the properties at 333 North 37^th Street and 332 North 38^th Street are declared surplus to municipal needs and that the proper City officials are authorized to execute a quit claim deed to convey the properties to Marquette University High School as consideration for the land it is conveying to the City for the new alley; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the remnant parcel, created after the dedication of the alley, is declared surplus to municipal needs and that the Commissioner of the Department of City Development is authorized to execute a quit claim deed to convey the remnant parcel to the adjoining owner for $1.00 for use as open space.
