Title

Resolution declaring the former Army Reserve site at 2372 South Logan Avenue surplus to municipal needs and directing the Department of City Development to market the property for redevelopment, in the 14th Aldermanic District.

Analysis

This resolution declares a City-owned property surplus to municipal needs and permits the City of Milwaukee to market the property for redevelopment.

Body

Whereas, On August 6, 2008, the Board of Harbor Commissioners declared the former Army Reserve site at 2372 South Logan Avenue surplus to Port of Milwaukee needs and asked the Department of Public Works (“DPW”) to work with the Department of City Development (“DCD”) to evaluate whether the property is suitable for another municipal function, or whether it should be marketed for private redevelopment; and

Whereas, DPW has notified DCD that the former Army Reserve site at 2372 South Logan Avenue is no longer needed by the City of Milwaukee (“City”) and no other municipal need exists for the property; and

Whereas, DCD proposes to market the property for redevelopment according to established criteria, a copy of which is attached to this Common Council File; and

Whereas, Upon publication of a Request for Proposal and receipt of an acceptable development proposal, DCD will present to the Common Council for approval the buyer and proposal that best meets the established criteria; and

Whereas, The City Plan Commission has determined that the former Army Reserve site at 2372 South Logan Avenue is surplus to municipal needs; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the former Army Reserve site at 2372 South Logan Avenue is declared surplus to municipal needs; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the Commissioner of DCD, or designee, is directed to advertise a Request for Proposal according to the established criteria and, upon receipt of development proposals, to make a recommendation to the Common Council for the proposal that best meets said criteria; and, be it

Further Resolved, That at such time as the property is sold, the sale proceeds, less marketing and closing expenses and a 30 percent reimbursement to the Redevelopment Authority of the City of Milwaukee, shall be returned to the General Fund.
