What's New

Historic Houses For Sale

The City of Milwaukee currently owns several historic homes and is offering them for sale to the right owner. If you love the scale, details and craftsmanship of an historic home and love to renovate, we may have the perfect house for you. As a bonus, many of the homes listed have had extensive exterior repairs such as new roofs, chimneys and siding. These repairs will make the remaining renovations manageable and the whole project more affordable.

Most of these properties may qualify for Wisconsin Historic Home Owner’s Tax Credits. Additional information is available from the Wisconsin Historical Society.

Redistricting Brings 4th District Changes

The redistricting process completed last year by the Common Council has brought new voting wards, polling locations, and district boundaries for aldermanic districts, including the 4th District.

Effective since April 2012:
• The western border of the 4th District is now N. 35th St., adding an area between W. Highland Blvd. and W. Kilbourn Ave. formerly in the 15th District.
• The northern boundary west of I-43 is now W. Vliet St., with the area north of Vliet is now part of the 15th District.
• The area bounded by N. Broadway, E. Juneau Ave., N. Farwell Ave. and E. Ogden Ave. is now part of the 4th District.
• All voting wards within the district have been renumbered, and several have had their boundaries altered.

Public Works Offers Text Messaging for Snow Emergencies
The City of Milwaukee is offering a text message system, Snow Mobile - Winter Text Alert to residents and businesses that want to be informed when the City declares a snow emergency or when the 4 inch rule is in effect.  The message would state the date and time the emergency is in effect and would provide the same when it is lifted. The primary purpose of declaring a snow emergency is to make sure the streets are cleared to keep the City open for business.
