| | 4. | | Presentation by Common Council - City Clerk/License Division Relating to Municipal Identification Cards
Minutes note: Mr. Jason Schunk, License Division Manager appeared.
In July of 2016, the Milwaukee Common Council passed an ordinance relating to the creation and issuance of a municipal identification (ID) card. For those individuals who live in the City of Milwaukee. This ID can not be used to vote in Wisconsin, you must be 14 years old or older to apply; minor must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian, the fee is $10 and the replacement fee is $5.00 dollars. This ID card will expire in 5 years.
Some benefits of the municipal ID program include:
Improved access to public and private services
increased sense of membership in the community among all residents
improved community safety by making it easier for those without IDs to interact with authorities
Mr. Schunk encouraged youth to come prepare for the next Youth Council meeting to obtain their municipal Id and experience the process from beginning to end so they can encourage, their peers and other members of the community they interact with, to participate in attaining a Municipal ID.
