Title
Substitute resolution accepting conveyance of a private main sanitary sewer located in North 18th Street between West McKinley Avenue and West Juneau Avenue for the purpose of providing public main sanitary sewer service to properties abutting that portion of North 18th Street, and acknowledging ownership of a new storm sewer to be constructed in North 18th Street.
Analysis
This resolution will allow the proper City officers to accept a sanitary sewer which was built privately, in order that it can serve as a public sewer, providing service to a number of newly-created lots fronting on North 18th Street between West Juneau Avenue and West McKinley Avenue  This resolution also acknowledges ownership of a new storm sewer in North 18th Street.
Body
Whereas, On December 19, 2003, the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee adopted Resolution File Number 030230 approving the final plat of the McKinley Subdivision, thereby opening North 18th Street between West Juneau Avenue and West McKinley Avenue, and creating lots fronting on North 18th Street; and
 
Whereas, A public sanitary sewer is needed in North 18th Street to serve those lots; and
 
Whereas, A private main sanitary sewer exists which could fulfill the City's needs; and
 
Whereas, The Housing Authority of the City of Milwaukee, who owns the private sewer, has expressed a desire to convey it to the City of Milwaukee; and
 
Whereas, The private main sewer has been examined and found to be in good condition; and
 
Whereas, An existing combined sewer in North 18th Street, owned by the Housing Authority, is in poor condition and will be replaced by a new storm sewer built at the Housing Authority's expense; and
 
Whereas, The new storm sewer will provide street and alley drainage, as well as service to multiple properties, making it necessary that it be a public main storm sewer; now, therefore, be it
 
Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the proper City officers are authorized and directed to sign Quit Claim Deed QCD 2752, a copy of which is attached to this file, whereby the City of Milwaukee acknowledges ownership of the existing sanitary sewer; and, be it
 
Further Resolved, That the new storm sewer to be built in North 18th Street between West Juneau Avenue and West McKinley Avenue is hereby acknowledged to be a public main storm sewer, to be maintained as such, in accord with current policies and practices.
