Title
Substitute resolution approving Amendment No. 4 to the Redevelopment Plan for the Park East Redevelopment Project Area, in the 3rd, 4th and 6th Aldermanic Districts.
Analysis
Adoption of this substitute resolution by at least two-thirds vote of the Common Council will amend text to expand permitted land use conditions set forth in Document Three: Development Code within the Park East Redevelopment Project Area. Such approval is a prerequisite for exercising the powers granted to the Redevelopment Authority under Wisconsin law for implementation of the amendment following adoption of this resolution.
Body
Whereas, On December 15, 2003, the Redevelopment Authority of the City of Milwaukee (“Authority”) approved Resolution No. 9569 and on June 15, 2004, the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee (“Common Council”) adopted File No. 030870, a Redevelopment Plan (“Plan”) for the Park East Redevelopment Project Area; and
Whereas, The Plan was recorded on August 11, 2004, in the Office of the Register of Deeds of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, as Document No. 08841218; and
Whereas, On August 19, 2004, via Resolution No. 9641, the Authority and on September 21, 2004, via File No. 040563, the Common Council adopted Amendment No. 1 to the Plan; and
Whereas, On April 28, 2005, via Resolution No. 9708, the Authority and on May 3, 2005, via File No. 041593, the Common Council adopted Amendment No. 2 to the Plan; and
Whereas, On November 17, 2005, via Resolution No. 9764, the Authority and on January 18, 2006, via File No. 050821, the Common Council adopted Amendment No. 3 to the Plan; and
Whereas, The Plan, Document Three: Development Code, defines use and design standards for all buildings on each of the 28 blocks; and
Whereas, The Development Code did not contemplate temporary uses in conjunction with development of new projects within and directly adjacent to the Park East Redevelopment Project Area boundary; and
Whereas, Amendment No. 4 to the Plan, a copy of which is attached to this Common Council File, provides for surface parking as an accessory temporary use for principal buildings, provided certain conditions are met; and
Whereas, The Authority approved Amendment No. 4 to the Plan after a public hearing on December 16, 2010, and is hereby transmitting it to the Common Council for approval; and
Whereas, The City Plan Commission reviewed Amendment No. 4 to the Plan and determined that it conforms to the general plan of the City and to local objectives, including appropriate land uses, improved traffic, public transportation, public utilities, recreational and community facilities and other public improvements in the Project Area; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that Amendment No. 4 to the Park East Redevelopment Plan is approved pursuant to Section 66.1333(11)(b), Wisconsin Statutes; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the City Clerk is directed to transmit to the Authority, the Commissioner of City Development, the Commissioner of Neighborhood Services and the Assessment Commissioner a certified copy of this resolution for recording in the Office of the Register of Deeds of Milwaukee County.
