Body

Whereas, The property located 1532 S. 22nd Sreet, tax key number 459-0219-0 previously owned by Timothy and Donna O'Keefe, has delinquent taxes for 2000 - 2001 and was foreclosed upon pursuant to Sec. 75.521, Wis. Stats., and a fee simple absolute was obtained in favor of the City of Milwaukee dated November 4, 2002; and

 

Whereas, Timothy and Donna O'Keefe, would like to reclaim said property by paying all City and County real estate taxes, plus accrued interest and penalties to date of payment, and all costs as sustained by the City in the foreclosing and management of said property since November 4, 2002; and

 

Whereas, The Department of Neighborhood Services indicates currently no unabated orders exist on this property.  However, the property has not been properly recorded with the Department of Neighborhood Services.  The Department has no objections if the property is returned contingent upon the owner properly recording the property prior to its return; and

Whereas, The Health Department reported no outstanding orders or notices, and no clean up notices have been issued against this property under Section 80-8 or 17-12 in 2002 or thus far in 2003; now, therefore, be it

 

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee that in order to return the property at 1532 S. 22nd Street, a cashier's check must be submitted in the amount indicated by the City Treasurer within forty-five (45) calendar days of the adoption of this resolution; and, be it
