Title
Substitute resolution directing the Health Department Lead Program to work with the Office of Violence Prevention to develop long-term strategies for lead intervention responsiveness.
Analysis
This resolution directs the Health Department Lead Program to work with the Office of Violence Prevention to develop long-term strategies for lead intervention responsiveness.
Body
Whereas, The Adopted 2023 City Budget included Amendment 19, a footnote directing the Health Department Lead program to work with the Office of Violence Prevention to develop long-term strategies for lead intervention responsiveness; and

Whereas, The Health Department Lead Program inspects properties associated with children under 6 with reported elevated blood-lead levels and cites properties for abatement of lead-poisoning hazards identified; and

Whereas, The Lead Program further monitors children under the age of 6 with reported elevated blood-lead levels; and

Whereas, It is expected that a collaboration between the Health Department Lead program and the Office of Violence Prevention to develop long-term strategies for lead intervention responsiveness will enable the Office of Violence Prevention to assist in a quicker more effective interdiction to possible violent behavior among children and young adults who have suffered the brain-damaging effects of blood-lead poisoning; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Health Department Lead Program is directed to work with the Office of Violence Prevention to develop long-term strategies for lead intervention responsiveness; and, be it

Further Resolved, That Health Department Lead Program and Office of Violence Prevention shall report long-term strategies developed for lead intervention responsiveness to the Common Council by May 31, 2023.
