Title

Resolution authorizing the Commissioner of Public Works to execute an agreement between the City of Milwaukee and Milwaukee County regarding the installation and maintenance of a bus shelter at the southwest corner of E. North and N. Oakland Avenues. (Infrastructure Services Division)

Analysis

This resolution authorizes the Commissioner of Public Works to execute an agreement between the City and Milwaukee County regarding the installation and maintenance of a bus shelter at the southwest corner of E. North and N. Oakland Avenues.  The shelter is of a unique design and is part of the E. North Avenue streetscaping project.  The City will assign its rights and obligations under this agreement with Milwaukee County to the E. North Avenue Business Improvement District (BID 20).

Body

Whereas, The E. North Avenue Business Improvement District (BID 20), in conjunction with the City of Milwaukee, is in the process of completing a streetscaping project for its area; and

Whereas, One element of that project is the installation of new street furniture including two uniquely designed bus shelters, one of which will be located at the southwest corner of E. North and N. Oakland Avenues; and

Whereas, The new bus shelter on the west side of Oakland Avenue will be situated partially in City right-of-way and partially on property belonging to Milwaukee County; and

Whereas, Milwaukee County has proposed an agreement with the City stipulating the terms and conditions for installation and maintenance of the bus shelter; and

Whereas, The City has a Maintenance Agreement with the board of BID 20 which outlines responsibilities for maintenance of the various streetscape elements; and

Whereas, This Maintenance Agreement indicates that BID 20 will be responsible for maintenance of the project's street furniture; and

Whereas, The net effect of the proposed agreement with the County and the existing agreement with BID 20 is that the BID will assume responsibility for maintenance of the bus shelter; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That the Bus Shelter Agreement between the City of Milwaukee and Milwaukee County attached to the file is hereby approved and the Commissioner of the Department of Public Works is authorized to execute the agreement on behalf of the City; and be it

Further Resolved, That the Commissioner of Public Works is authorized to make minor, non-substantive changes to the agreement prior to its execution; and be it

Further Resolved, That it is the intent of the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee to assign all of the maintenance responsibilities outlined in the Bus Shelter Agreement to the board of Business Improvement District 20 under the terms of a pre existing maintenance agreement between the City of Milwaukee and that organization.
