Title
Authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute appropriate documents to amend a use restriction on an apartment building at 2801 Dryden Drive. 12th Ald. District.

WHEREAS the use restriction placed on the property by the property owner and the City's Plan Commission states that it shall run with the land until such time as, or unless, it is modified by the Common Council of the City of Madison pursuant to a then-existing ordinance of the City of Madison; and

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Mayor and City Clerk are authorized to execute all appropriate documents...
