Title

Resolution approving a Land Disposition Report and authorizing the sale of the City-owned tax deed property at 3953 North 76th Street, in the 5th Aldermanic District.

Analysis

This resolution authorizes the sale of City-owned Development Property according to the conditions in a Land Disposition Report pursuant to Sections 304-49-5 and 304-49-8, Milwaukee Code of Ordinances.

Body

Whereas, The City of Milwaukee (“City”) acquired 3953 North 76th Street (the “Property”) through property tax foreclosure on November 14, 2011; and

 

Whereas, The Department of City Development (“DCD”) advertised the Property for sale on its website and through MLS; and

 

Whereas, DCD accepted offers on a continuous basis until an acceptable offer was received and DCD recommends acceptance of the proposal from Darick Books, LLC (“Buyer”), or its assignee, to acquire and redevelop the Property as summarized in a Land Disposition Report (“LDR”) and a Due Diligence Checklist, copies of which are attached to this Common Council File; now, therefore, be it

 

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the LDR is approved and that DCD is authorized to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (“PASA”) with the Buyer, materially consistent with the LDR, and then convey the Property to the Buyer in accordance therewith; and, be it

 

Further Resolved, That the Commissioner DCD, or designee, is authorized to sign the PASA, deed and requisite closing documents and to close the transaction and take such actions, as may be needed, to effectuate the terms of the LDR and this resolution; and, be it

 

Further Resolved, That the sale proceeds, less sale and marketing expenses and a 30 percent disposition fee to the Redevelopment Authority of the City of Milwaukee, shall be credited to the City’s Tax Deficit Fund.
