Analysis

This substitute resolution authorizes the Commissioner of Public Works to execute an agreement with the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District regarding the hiring of GAB Robins North America, Inc. for the purpose of determining the extent of damage experienced by homeowners related to backwater that occurred on May 14, 2004.

Body

Whereas, Basement backups were reported in the area bounded by North 30^th Street on the west, the Milwaukee River on the east, West Silver Spring Drive on the north, and West Hampton Avenue on the south as a result of the May 14, 2004 rain event; and

Whereas, The Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) has contracted with GAB Robins North America, Inc. to contact the occupants of the buildings that experienced backwater on May 14, 2004 and interview the occupants, inspect and photograph affected areas and prepare a report on the damage; and

Whereas, United Water Services of Milwaukee LLC and the City of Milwaukee would equally share with MMSD in the cost of having this work done, which is estimated to cost $65,000; now, therefore be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Commissioner of Public Works is authorized to execute an agreement with the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District regarding the hiring of GAB Robins North America, Inc., a copy of which is attached to and made a part of this resolution.
