body

WHEREAS, in 2022, the City of Wauwatosa began to assess alternatives to mitigate flooding in the Schoonmaker Creek Watershed from 17 to 2 and the city engaged with a consulting engineering firm to undertake a detailed analysis of these two options which were a tunnel option and a conventional storm sewer option;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Common Council of the City of Wauwatosa that the city selects the conventional storm sewer option as it is the least costly option at $38.9 million dollars compared to the tunnel option, which is $63.6 million dollars.
