Title

Resolution directing the Commissioner of Public Works to execute a revised project agreement titled “State/Municipal Agreement for a State-Let Highway Project” with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for the programming, design, and construction of West Layton Avenue from South 27^th Street to South Howell Avenue. 

Analysis

This resolution directs the Commissioner of Public Works to execute a revised State/Municipal Agreement with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for the programming, design, and construction of West Layton Avenue from South 27^th Street to South Howell Avenue with State and Federal aid under the Surface Transportation Program.

Body

Whereas, A project agreement has been executed by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation and the City of Milwaukee for the programming, design, and construction of West Layton Avenue from South 27^th Street to South Howell Avenue with Federal and State aid under the Surface Transportation Program, in accordance with Common Council Resolution File Number 151714, adopted April 15, 2016; and

Whereas, The project agreement included signal improvement costs within the project limits, whose work was to be done as part of the let-construction paving contract, and

Whereas, The City requested and the Wisconsin Department of Transportation agreed that the signal improvements be removed from the paving contract and undertaken as part of a separate Local Force Account contract by City forces; and

Whereas, The Wisconsin Department of Transportation has transmitted for our signature a revised project agreement for the West Layton Avenue from South 27^th Street to South Howell Avenue roadway improvement project, that shifts the grant dollars from the paving portion of the agreement to a separate Local Force Account contract to be undertaken by City forces without degradation to the overall grant funding amounts; and

Whereas, Construction funds for the Local Force Account signal project will be included in a separate resolution; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee that the Commissioner of Public Works is hereby authorized to execute the revised project agreement for the programming, design, and construction of West Layton Avenue from South 27^th Street to South Howell Avenue with updated construction costs; and, be it

Further Resolved, A copy of the revised project agreement is attached to this resolution by reference as though set forth in full.
