This collection contains records from the City of Milwaukee’s 10th District Alderman,
George C. Butler. The records date from within his Aldermanic tenure, 1992-2000. The
original subject headings from aldermanic staff have been kept intact as much as
possible. This collection includes reports, correspondence and newspaper clippings
on three main subjects: the Election Commission, the Health Department and the
Milwaukee water crisis / cryptosporidium outbreak. The crisis began in spring of
1993 when residents began getting sick and cryptosporidium was discovered in the
water supply.
