Title

Resolution authorizing City entry into Green Infrastructure Funding Agreement, and Conservation Easement, with MMSD and MPS for MPS property at 2525 N. Sherman Blvd., Washington High School, in the 15^th Aldermanic District.

Analysis

This resolution authorizes the City of Milwaukee to enter into a Green Infrastructure Funding Agreement, and Conservation Easement, with MMSD and MPS for grant funding for installation of green infrastructure at the MPS property at 2525 N. Sherman Blvd., Washington High School.

Body

Whereas, The City of Milwaukee is the owner of record of the following Milwaukee Public School (MPS) site concerning which the MPS Board has the duty of care, control and management under Wis. Stat. 119.16 (1m) and (3)(b) and Wis. Stat. 119.60 (2):

•                     2525 N. Sherman Blvd. (Washington High School); and

Whereas, The Metropolitan Milwaukee Sewerage District (MMSD) is willing to provide grant funding to MPS to reimburse MPS for green infrastructure improvements to this MPS school site; and 

Whereas, Green infrastructure improvements through this funding source will help divert storm water from local sewerage systems; and

Whereas, MMSD requires MPS, and the City as the record title holder of the MPS site: to enter into a funding agreement for the MPS site; and to enter, after the infrastructure has been installed at this school site, a conservation easement for the parcel; and

Whereas, The Green Infrastructure Funding Agreement now needed for this particular MPS school site has been submitted to this file; and

Whereas, The template conservation easement to be used post-installation, for this school site, will be in substantially the same form and substance as the template conservation easement that was approved by the Common Council in Resolution File No. 191139; now therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Green Infrastructure Funding Agreement that was submitted to this file is hereby approved, and City personnel, including the DPW Commissioner, are authorized: (i) to cause the City to enter that funding agreement document in the same form, or in substantially the same form and substance, as has been submitted to this file; and (ii) to cause the City to enter, for this school site, post-installation of the green infrastructure improvements, the conservation easement in the same form, or in substantially the same form and substance, as was submitted to File No. 191139 and approved by that Resolution File; and (iii) to take such further acts as may be contemplated or required to be taken by the City under those documents so as to carry out the intent and purpose of this resolution and those documents.
