Resolution authorizing the Commissioner of Public Works to execute an agreement with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for the programming and construction of the improvement of North Mayfair Road from West Burleigh Street to West Silver Spring Drive with Federal/State aid under the State Trunk Highway Program.
Analysis
This resolution authorizes and directs the Commissioner of Public Works to execute a project agreement with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for programming and construction of the improvement of North Mayfair Road (STH 100) from West Burleigh Street to West Silver Spring Drive under the State Trunk Highway Program. Approval of the agreement with the WISDOT will enable the project to be undertaken using 100 percent Federal/State aid for preliminary engineering costs and approximately 98 percent Federal/State aid for construction costs. The estimated total cost of the project is $6,872,000 of which the City of Milwaukee’s construction share is estimated to be $110,500 and the grantor share is $6,419,500. Approval for construction costs will be in a future resolution. City of Milwaukee costs for plan review, which will be funded 100 percent by the City of Milwaukee, are estimated to be $30,000.
