Title
Resolution approving the termination of agreements for furnishing water outside of city limits.
Analysis
This resolution authorizes the termination and recording such termination of two agreements for the furnishing of water outside of city limits that were entered into between the City of Milwaukee and two private industrial consumers of water on June 26, 1946 and November 1, 1947. These agreements are no longer operative, in that the City of Milwaukee does not provide water to either of the original signatories to the agreements, or their successors in interest, and has not for at least 25 years. This amendment will provide to the Superintendent of the City of Milwaukee Water Works the authority to administratively terminate these agreements.
