Analysis
This resolution authorizes transfer of jurisdiction of City-owned properties from DCD to the Milwaukee Fire Department.
Body
Whereas, The Milwaukee Fire Department (“MFD”) has offered to assume maintenance responsibility for the subject tax-deed vacant lots adjoining two engine companies; and
Whereas, Engine Company No. 18 at 3628 North Holton Street is adjacent to the land-locked parcel at 3620(R) North Holton Street; and
Whereas, Engine Company No. 30 at 2903 North Teutonia Avenue is adjacent to 2911-15 North Teutonia Avenue; and
Whereas, The lots have limited development potential due to their small size, irregular shape and location; and
Whereas, MFD has agreed to secure and maintain these lots and to use them for the adjoining engine companies; and
Whereas, The City Plan Commission has reviewed and approved said use of the subject lots by MFD; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that jurisdiction for the lots at 3620(R) North Holton Street and 2911-15 North Teutonia Avenue is transferred to MFD; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Assessment Commissioner is directed to combine the respective lots into single tax-key parcels for each engine company.
