Title

Substitute resolution approving an Intergovernmental Agreement with Milwaukee County for temporary signage at Milwaukee County Parks for fireworks prevention, and appropriating funds for the City share of this Agreement.

Analysis

This resolution approves an Intergovernmental Agreement between the City and Milwaukee County for temporary signage at Milwaukee County Parks for fireworks prevention.  It directs the City Clerk to execute the Agreement and commit funds for the City share of this Agreement.

Body

Whereas, Milwaukee County and the City of Milwaukee both qualify as “municipalities” authorized to enter into contracts for the receipt or furnishing of services pursuant to s. 66.0301, Wis. Stats.; and

Whereas, The City and the County conclude that the prevalence of illegal fireworks creates substantial public health and safety risks; and

Whereas, Both parties agree that installing temporary signage at certain park entrances 7 to 10 days prior to the 4^th of July will accomplish the goal of educating users of the illegality of fireworks; and

Whereas, According to the Agreement, the County shall install between 20 and 30 signs at entrances of the parks stated in the Agreement between 7 and 10 days prior to the Milwaukee County Parks 4^th of July celebrations, whether or not the locations have celebrations; and

Whereas, The County shall also remove and store signs, and report to the City the total number of signs that were recovered and the total number of signs that were recovered but damaged beyond being rendered useable in the future; and

Whereas, The City shall have sole responsibility for creating the content and design of the temporary signs, and shall contract with the distributor and pay all costs for signage production; and

Whereas, The County shall reimburse the City for 50% of cost of signage production, not to exceed $600.00; and

Whereas, This Agreement shall terminate at the end of 2008, and may be extended by the parties to cover subsequent years under the same terms and conditions that exist in this Agreement after receiving further approval from the Common Council and the County Board of Supervisors; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Intergovernmental Agreement with Milwaukee County for temporary signage at Milwaukee County Parks for fireworks prevention is approved, a copy of which is attached to this file; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the City Clerk is authorized to execute the Agreement with the County, and the Clerk shall commit funds in the amount of $600.00 for this purpose.
