TITLE:
Substitute resolution relating to the cancellation of uncollectible invoices.
ANALYSIS:
This resolution cancels uncollectible City invoices billed to Milwaukee County related to ambulance conveyance charges for prisoners in police custody.
BODY:
Whereas, The City of Milwaukee, pursuant to both state statute and contractual agreements with Milwaukee County, is obligated to pay certain costs related to the care and maintenance of prisoners incarcerated in the House of Correction; and
 
Whereas, The Milwaukee Police Department has outstanding invoices with Milwaukee County in a total amount of  $1,636,278.35 for the time period from 1992 through 1998 related to charges in connection with the conveyance by ambulance of prisoners in police custody; and
 
Whereas, The City has not been able to collect the past due amounts related to the conveyance of prisoners because the issue of liability for the costs of prisoner medical care has not been directly addressed and resolved by the courts; and
 
Whereas, The City has not billed Milwaukee County for the costs associated with conveyance of prisoners since 1998; now, therefore, be it
 
Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the following claims are cancelled:
