This resolution authorizes the sale of City-owned Property at 3631-33 West Lisbon Avenue according to the conditions in a Land Disposition Report pursuant to Section 304-49-5 and 304-49-8, Milwaukee Code of Ordinances.

Body

Whereas, The City of Milwaukee (“City”) acquired 3631-33 West Lisbon Avenue (the “Property”), through property tax foreclosure on July 30, 2001; and

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the LDR and DDC are approved and that DCD is authorized to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (“PASA”) with the Buyer, or assignee, materially consistent with the LDR and then convey the property to the Buyer, or assignee, in accordance therewith; and, be it

 

Further Resolved, That the Commissioner of DCD, or designee, is authorized to sign the PASA, deed and requisite closing documents and to close the transaction and to take such actions as may be needed to effectuate the terms of the LDR and this resolution; and, be it

 

Further Resolved, That the sale proceeds, less sale and marketing expenses and a 30 percent disposition cost reimbursement to the Redevelopment Authority of the City of Milwaukee, shall be credited to the Delinquent Tax Fund.
