Analysis

This resolution authorizes the Commissioner of Public Works and Comptroller to enter into agreements with the City of Greenfield for the design, installation, operation, maintenance, and funding of two new traffic control signals at the intersections of West Howard Avenue at South 43^rd and South 84^th Streets in the Cities of Milwaukee and Greenfield to be constructed in conjunction with a Congestion Mitigation/Air Quality (CMAQ) project previously approved by the Common Council. Under the proposed agreements, the City of Greenfield will fund one quarter of the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the new traffic signal at West Howard Avenue and South 43^rd Street and one half of the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the new traffic signal at West Howard Avenue and South 84^th Street.

Body

Whereas, The  City of Milwaukee has received approval of a CMAQ grant for the installation of six coordinated traffic signals and the Common Council has previously authorized preliminary engineering under File Number 080625; and

Whereas, The proposed traffic control signals on West Howard Avenue at South 43^rd and South 84^th Streets will be located in both the City of Milwaukee and the City of Greenfield; and

Whereas, Two Traffic Control Agreements have been drafted for design, installation, maintenance, and operation of new traffic control signals on West Howard Avenue at South 43^rd and South 84^th Streets between the City of Greenfield and the City of Milwaukee; and

Whereas, One quarter (25%) of the proposed traffic signal at West Howard Avenue at South 43^rd Street and one half of the proposed traffic signal at West Howard Avenue and South 84^th Street will be within the City of Greenfield; and

Whereas, One quarter (25%), or $3,250 of the estimated local share of $13,000 for the installation of a traffic control signal at West Howard Avenue and South 43^rd Street and one half (50%), or $6,500 of the estimated local share of $13,000 for the installation of a traffic control signal at West Howard Avenue and South 84^th Street, for a total of $9,750, will be funded by the City of Greenfield; and

Whereas, Ten percent of the City of Greenfield share, or $975, will be used for preliminary engineering and the remaining $8,775 will be applied to construction following the completion of preliminary engineering and upon further approval of the Common Council; and

Whereas, Upon installation of the traffic signals, one quarter (25%) of the cost of the maintenance at West Howard Avenue and South 43^rd Street and one half (50%) of the cost of maintenance at West Howard Avenue and South 84^th Street will be funded by the City of Greenfield and the City of Greenfield will fund one hundred percent of the cost of electrical energy; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Commissioner of Public Works and the Comptroller are directed to execute two Traffic  Control Agreements with the City of Greenfield pertaining to the cost participation for the design, installation, maintenance and operation of two new traffic control signals in conjunction with a CMAQ project at the intersections  on West Howard Avenue at South 43^rd and South 84^th Streets, copies of which are attached to this Common Council Resolution File, and is incorporated in this resolution by reference as though set forth in full; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the City Comptroller is hereby authorized to amend accounts for the project to include a total City of Greenfield share of $9,750 and a City of Greenfield preliminary engineering share of $975 and reduce the City of Milwaukee share to $78,000 and reduce the City of Milwaukee preliminary engineering share to $7,025.
