- Analysis -

This resolution directs the Intergovernmental Relations Division - Department of Administration to seek introduction and passage of state legislation authorizing transfer of title of the property of the Captain Frederick Pabst Theater from the City of Milwaukee to an appropriate entity possessing specified characteristics.

BODY:

Whereas, A Wisconsin statute authorizes Milwaukee to establish and maintain a municipal theater, and requires that the title of all real and personal theater property be "perpetually" held in the name of the City, s. 229.27, Wis. Stats.; and

Whereas, The Milwaukee theater governed by this statute is the historic Captain Frederick Pabst Theater; and

Whereas, On July 20, 1999, the Captain Frederick Pabst Theater Board adopted a resolution expressing its support for transfer of the theater to "an entity which is representative of the entire greater Milwaukee community, which has the revenue raising capabilities to adequately fund the theater's ongoing operating and capital needs and which would allow the efficient use and maximum productivity of the Milwaukee community's performing arts resources;" and

Whereas, It is appropriate to authorize transfer of the Captain Frederick Pabst Theater property from the City to an entity with the characteristics described by the Board; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Intergovernmental Relations Division - Department of Administration is directed to seek introduction and passage of state legislation authorizing transfer of title of the property of the Captain Frederick Pabst Theater from the City of Milwaukee to an appropriate entity that is representative of the entire greater Milwaukee community, has the revenue raising capabilities to adequately fund the theater's ongoing operating and capital needs and would allow the efficient use and maximum productivity of the Milwaukee community's performing arts resources.
