Title

Resolution directing the Commissioner of Public Works to submit a project application with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for funding for local street improvements under the Local Roads Improvement Program. 

Body

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

Whereas, Section 86.31provides entitlement for county trunk highway, town road and city and village street improvements; and

Whereas, The 2022-2023 LRIP allocation of Entitlement Funds for the City of Milwaukee was $1,078,533.06.  The 2024-2025 Entitlement Funds have not been released at this time but is anticipated to be similar, and will be presented to the Council in a future resolution with the State Municipal Agreement; and

Whereas, In accordance with TRANS 206, the administrative code relating to the LRIP Program, a project application to the WisDOT is necessary to apply for the City of Milwaukee’s entitlement; and

Whereas, The local street improvement projects applied for are potential projects which are anticipated for funding under the LRIP, however, the actual projects will be approved through future Common Council actions; and

Whereas, Funds for projects to be undertaken under the LRIP are budgeted in the Street Improvement - State and/or Federal Aid Program Fund in the proposed 2024 Capital Improvement Program (Fund 0333 and Fund 0330); now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Commissioner of Public Works is directed to submit a project application with the WisDOT for funding for Council Resolution File No. 230745, and is incorporated into this resolution as though set forth in full.
