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 West Forest Home Avenue (STH 24) from South 92^nd Street to South 45^th Street under the State Trunk Highway Program.  Approval of the agreement with the WISDOT will enable the project to be undertaken using 100 percent Federal and/or State Aid for preliminary engineering costs and 91 percent Federal and/or State Aid for participating construction costs.  The estimated total cost of the project is $6,370,000 of which the City of Milwaukee’s share is estimated to be $406,000 and the grantor’s share is estimated to be $5,964,000.  Approval for construction will be in a future resolution.  City of Milwaukee engineering costs for plan review, which will be funded 100 percent by the City of Milwaukee, is estimated to be $30,000.
