Title
Authorizing and delegating to the City Engineer the right and responsibility to obtain a Permit to Work On Highway Right-Of-Way Permit Application from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for sanitary and storm sewer maintenance along the Railroad Corridor & WisDOT property located at 2199 S. Thompson Dr, 2221 S. Thompson Dr, & 2798 I 90-39. (District 16)
Body
The City of Madison has both sanitary and storm sewer utilities throughout the rail corridor and WisDOT owned property at 2199 S. Thompson Dr, 2221 S. Thompson Dr, & 2798 I 90-39, which lands are bracketed by Femrite Dr to the south, Interstate I 90-39 to the east, and Oxbow Ct/ Wagon Trl to the north. These facilities require ongoing maintenance to remain functional. In order to do the necessary maintenance work on the WisDOT owned property, the City will need a WisDOT issued Work On Highway Right-Of-Way Permit.
As maintenance is ongoing and occasionally of an urgent or critical nature this resolution allows the City Engineer to apply for and sign these permits as needed, provided they are reviewed and approved by the City Attorney and insurance is bound through the City Risk Manager.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Engineer is hereby authorized to apply for and execute permits, in a form and manner approved by the City Attorney, on behalf of the City with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for the maintenance of the City’s sanitary and storm sewers on the properties located at 2199 S. Thompson Dr, 2221 S. Thompson Dr, & 2798 I 90-39.
