BEFORE THE OAK CREEK COMMON COUNCIL

PURPOSE:

The purpose of this public hearing is to consider the adoption of Ordinance No. 2482, an ordinance to create Sec. 2.24(f) of the Municipal Code, a copy of which is attached.  If adopted this ordinance would require a binding referendum before the City of Oak Creek could commence a capital project to reconstruct, remodel, rebuild or construct an addition to City Hall, Fire Station No. 1 or the City Library if the cost of the project is $2.5 million or more.  If the ordinance is adopted it would not preclude the City from planning or designing such a project.  This ordinance would be considered an ordinance adopted pursuant to a direct legislation petition as provided in Wis. Stats. Sec. 9.20.  If this ordinance is adopted it will result in the dismissal of the lawsuit brought by Oak Creek Citizen’s Action Committee and Mark Verhalen against the City—Milwaukee County Circuit Court Case No. 06CV003863.
