Mayor Tom Barrett Supports UWM Expansion in the City of Milwaukee

Friday, April 18th, 2008

On April 15, 2008, on the day of the inauguration for Mayor Tom Barrett’s second term, the Mayor signed a resolution promoting the expansion of the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee (“UWM”) within the City of Milwaukee, specifically in the downtown area.

A week earlier, this resolution was unanimously approved by Milwaukee’s Common Council. The entire resolution can be found here.

UWM Downtown applauds this effort and believes that downtown Milwaukee offers the best location for a UWM expansion in the entire Milwaukee region.
