Title

Substitute resolution reserving up to $50,000 in the 2001 Common Council Contingent Fund for the Maintenance of Essential Utility Service Special Purpose Account.

Analysis

This resolution reserves up to $50,000 in the 2001 Common Council Contingent Fund to supplement the Maintenance of Essential Utility Service Special Purpose  Account under control of the Department of Neighborhood Services to cover unanticipated costs related to the correction of emergency situations in residential units.

Body

Whereas, Section 200-21 of the Milwaukee Code of Ordinances authorizes the Commissioner of Neighborhood Services to contract with outside vendors to correct emergency housing conditions if the owner fails to make repairs in a timely manner; and

Whereas, There was an unanticipated increase in the number of sewer lateral repairs in 2001; and

Whereas, This unanticipated increase has resulted in a shortfall within the Maintenance of Essential Utility Service Special Purpose Account; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the sum of $50,000 shall be reserved within the 2001 Common Council Contingent Fund (Account No. 0001-9990-001-C001) for the Maintenance of Essential Utility Service Special Purpose Account for payment of outside vendors hired to correct emergency housing conditions; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the City Comptroller is authorized to appropriate on an as-needed basis up to $50,000 from the funds reserved within the Contingent Fund, sub-class C001 to special sub-class S147 under control of the Department of Neighborhood Services for the purpose of paying expenditures related to these emergency housing conditions.
