SUBSTITUTE - Amending Section 15.01(598) of the Madison General Ordinances entitled "City Boundaries" and being part of the chapter entitled "Aldermanic Districts and Wards" attaching property addressed as 60 White Oaks Lane to the 20th Aldermanic District; creating Section 15.02(146136) of the Madison General Ordinances entitled "Aldermanic Districts and Wards" to attach the property to Ward 146136; and amending Section 15.03(20) to add Ward 146136 to Aldermanic District 20.
Body
DRAFTER’S ANALYSIS: On June 7, 2016, the Common Council adopted Ordinance 16-00059 (ID 42655) to attach 1.17 acres of land located at 60 White Oaks Lane, Town of Middleton based on a petition from the property owner, who sought to connect a new residence on the parcel to City of Madison sanitary sewer located in White Oaks Lane. Pursuant to the Cooperative Plan with the Town of Middleton a property owner may obtain municipal water and sewer with an agreement to pay for the costs of the service and a requirement to attach to the City with a delayed effective date of five (5) years. The effective date of Ordinance 16-00059 was June 1, 2021, which was subsequently amended to April 10, 2022 by Ordinance 21-00048 (ID 65651) on June 15, 2021.

The ordinance attaching the property did not assign a ward or polling place for the property and stipulated that the property be added to the 1st Aldermanic District upon the effective date of the attachment. However, due to redistricting, the surrounding property on the south side of Schroeder Road is located in the 20th Aldermanic District. The proposed ordinance amends the district designation for the property to the 20th District.

This substitute ordinance changes the assigned Ward from 146 to 136 based on state redistricting.
