Whereas, The Department of City Development requests that the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee waive all equity in 9 catch basins and equity in 35 trees and grates from the revised report on the vacation dated October 1, 1999; and
 
Whereas, This proposed vacation has been reviewed in accordance with Section 81-308-28, Milwaukee Code of Ordinances; now, therefore, be it

Further Resolved, That the proper City officials are authorized and directed to execute a pedestrian and vehicular easement to ensure public access to the vacated area; and, be it
 
Further Resolved, That the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee waive all equity costs; and, be it
 
Further Resolved, That as provided by Section 80.32(4), Wisconsin Statutes, such vacation shall not terminate the easements and rights incidental thereto acquired by or belonging to any county, town, village or city, or to any utility or person in any underground structures, improvements or services, as enumerated or otherwise existing in said land above described, but such easements and rights and all rights of entrance, maintenance, construction and repair with reference thereto shall continue as if such portion of street had not been vacated.
