Body

Whereas, State Statute 86.31 established a Local Roads Improvement Program (LRIP) to provide up to 50% reimbursement by the State of eligible costs for local street improvements; and

Whereas, In 2006-2007, under the LRIP Program, the City of Milwaukee is entitled to receive reimbursement up to a maximum amount of $1,059,831.55 for local street improvements; and

Whereas, Resolution 050193 authorized the agreement, but did not set up the funding; and

Whereas, Funds for projects to be undertaken under the LRIP Program are budgeted in the Street Improvement - State and/or Federal Aid Program Fund in the 2006 Capital Improvement Program (Fund 0333 and Fund 0330); and

Whereas, It is advantageous and necessary that these funds be transferred to the Street Reconstruct or Resurface Program - Regular City Program (Fund 0333); and

Whereas, The projects funded with this program area anticipated to be constructed in the 2006 construction season; and

Whereas, The Street Reconstruct or Resurface - Regular City Program (Fund 0330) has sufficient funds to cover the assessable portion of these projects; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council, that the City Comptroller is hereby authorized to transfer appropriations to Infrastructure Services Division Account No. 0333-ST211060000; Street Reconstruct or Resurface Program - Regular City Program from the accounts as follows for the LRIP Program;
