The Commission carefully considered each of the proposals and the comments from a grants advisory group established in the adopted grant guidelines. The advisory group had representatives from the Police Department, Community Services, PED, and the St. Paul Companies. I have reviewed the Planning Commission's report and support their funding recommendations. In addition, I am recommending full funding for the West Side Citizens Organization proposal on cross-cultural education and the integration of cultural diversity into West Side organizations. This innovative proposal addresses the root cause of many crime problems in the City. WSCO's experience with the project may serve later as a model for other efforts in St. Paul. The $17,800 request can be funded from the $30, 000 that the Planning Commission has recommended rolling over to the next funding cycle, therefore the Planning Commission's funding recommendations for other projects will remain unaffected. You will recall that, as the guidelines were being developed, I suggested a review before a second cycle of crime prevention grants. In light of the Commission's comments on the proposals and the process, I feel that it is even more critical that the Council take a close look at the program and funding procedures. Neighborhood-based crime prevention grants remain a good idea, but changes may be necessary before the next funding cycle. ��.a Pdutod on Recycled Paper 4 . . � �-y��.� Council President William Wilson and Members of the City Council June 26, 1990 Page Two At the very least, we must make a commitment to a review process that includes: 1) a longer application and review period to allow more complete development of proposals, 2) inclusion of several neighborhood representatives on the grants advisory group, 3) interviews of project applicants by review committees, and 4) a longer format application form that allows neighborhoods several pages to describe projects in more detail. With these improvements in the process, I feel that the next cycle of Neighborhood Crime Prevention grants will result in continuing successful projects in the City.

We commend the Council for establishing the program; it is obvious that there are needs and there are community organizations ready to address them with organized citizen effort. Proposals came from a variety of neighborhood groups and represented several innovative means to address crime prevention. The quality of the top seven proposals is high and we believe they will have substantial beneficial impact. On the whole, the Commission was disappointed with the quality of the proposals and funding recommendations beyond these seven are difficult. Too many of the proposals simply did not provide basic information required by the guidelines. As a consequence, the recommended funding falls short of the total amount available for the program, and we are in the position of recommending no funding for some areas where we know the need is critical. We believe, however, that it is better to withhold some of the funds and prepare for a new round of applications than to commit funds without a program description that provides a good basis for a contract. This is the first round for the program, and we have all acknowledged that the process would be somewhat experimental. The need for several improvements is clear. First, as you know, in the interest of time, the pre-application process was eliminated. With a pre-application process, technical assistance can be given where it is needed and important issues that need to be resolved in a final application can be addressed. That opportunity to provide some early comment and assistance in the interest of good proposals was sorely missed in this process. . � �-q� //6� President Bill Wilson and Members of the City Council June 11, 1990 Page Two Second, also because of the time factor, the Commission's review was based entirely on the written proposals submitted. There was not time for a committee or advisory group interview with each applicant, a step which often helps considerably to clarify applicants' intentions. This is a deficiency which can be remedied simply another time around. Third, there are groups and individuals with good experience in block organizing for crime prevention, and steps should be taken to encourage sharing of expertise. With some workshops or other provision for training, the quality of proposals could certainly be raised. These possibilities for improvement of the procedure should be taken into account in planning for a new program cycle. The Commission also wishes to suggest that the Council give some consideration to whether or not a competitive grant process is the best approach for distributing this amount of money for this purpose. We are concerned about the factor of relative need for crime prevention activity and the difficulty of taking this into account when evaluating proposals of widely differing quality. An alternative to be considered would be a formula allocation by district. Funds available per district could be equal, or crime levels and population could be factored into a formula. Awards could be based on match raised. Non-district-council groups should still be encouraged to participate, and this might mean some level of competition within districts. Proposal review and comment could still be sought from appropriate city departments and others with expertise, and innovative approaches could still be encouraged. An evaluation process like the current one might apply only to those cases where there was competition at the district level. The Commission will be happy to provide whatever assistance we can in implementation and further development of the Neighborhood Crime Prevention Program.

The funding recommendations on Attachment A are ranked and grouped according to Planning Commission ratings of the proposals. There were clear divisions in the ranking between the three groups of proposals. The first group includes those proposals that fully merit funding. With one exception, the Commission recommends funding at the applicant's requested level. The Dayton's Bluff Proposal has been reduced to $19,280 (from $20,000) after removing $720 of ineligible phone expenses from the grant budget. The Commission recommends that the $100 per block organizing "bonus" be eliminated, and that the $2000 for that purpose be used to supplement the proposed salary directly. The Commission notes that the Thomas Dale Block Club Proposal has set block watch organizing goals but has not requested additional staff. The Commission feels that some funds, such as $1520 for t-shirts, might better be applied toward staff time. Some reallocation within the $14,360 budget might be considered in implementation and a final budget. The second group of proposals includes grant requests that the Commission found to be somewhat less competitive. The Riverview Neighborhood Crime Watch, St. Anthony Park Communitv Council, District 14, and Summit Hill Association proposals seek to fund relatively well-established block club organizations. Not all can be fully funded with available funds. The Commission recommends $10,000 grants to each group. This is an approximate 50� reduction from initial requests, except for Summit Hill Association's $10,000 request. The Commission recommends $9000 funding for the St. Anthonv Park Merchants and Professional Association for only the commercial area organizing component of the proposal. The Commission does not recommend funding the deeply subsidized crime prevention hardware. The Commission sees the important need for commercial area crime prevention organizing and activity in the Payne and Arcade areas, as proposed by the East Side Neighborhood Development Co. It does not, however, feel that reliance on business band radio is warranted or advisable. The Commission notes that the mall watch newspaper article included with the grant application refers to phone networks for communication. The Commission encourages ESNDC to submit another proposal in subsequent grant cycles. The Commission is sympathetic to the need for residential area block club organizing in the Summit-Universitv neighborhood. The grant proposal, however, was inadequate, particularly in its lack of detail in the source and contributions of the required match and its rather modest goal to organize 16 block clubs. . � ��yo-�� The Commission supports the on-going crime prevention and problem properties work of the Riverview Neighborhood Crime Watch and has recommended $10,000 in funding. This funding should be contingent on a substantially revised budget and description of goals that shows exactly what the grant will accomplish and -- how it will be matched by the neighborhood. It is not sufficient to raerely include crime prevention grant funds into a general budget. Funds should not be allocated prior to submission of an acceptable budget. (NOTE: Final budgets and contracts will have to be developed with all grant recipients. Most applicants have submitted budgets that will require little modification. ) The Planning Commission feels that the final group of proposals should not, at least in their present form, be funded. The Planning Commission is disappointed in the quality of most of the proposals -- even many of those in the middle group. In part this is attributable to the new program, a short application time line, and the lack of required pre-applications. Overall, the applicants showed too little regard for the specific criteria and requested information in the guidelines, including stated neighborhood and/or target area needs, a means of program evaluation, detailed neighborhood match information, and working relationships with city departments. The Commission recommends a schedule for future cycles that allows for pre-application review, city-neighborhood ccoperation in grant writing, and an interview session with applicants, before funding recommendations are made. � � �y� " �/�o ATTACHMENT C June 4, 1990 Planning Commission comments on all proposals l. District 1 Community Council Purpose: Apartment management/tenant organizing Request: $ 8,200 (General Fund) Comments: Coordination with the White Bear-Ruth small area plan and with the East Team Police and police crime prevention is commendable. Geographical targeting is appropriate to the need that exists in the area. Recruiting managers will require a lot of work. If anything, the proposed budget seems low for the stated goals. There is a lot of confusion over the cost of signs throughout the proposals. $200 for signs and other hardware in this proposal probably won't go very far. 2. District 2 Community Council: Apartment Proposal Purpose: Subsidy for crime security hardware for apartments Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The need for apartment management is clear in the neighborhood. Organization should precede other steps, including the hardware purchases requested in the proposal. There are questions about exactly what types of hardware is being considered and how effective it would be given the typical apartment doors and windows. The impact is questionable. The proposed budget is far too general. There are no established target areas or buildings. 3_s West Seventh Community Center: Sibley Manor Apartments Purpose: Apartment building locks for 55 buildings at Sibley Manor Request: $ 14,825 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal is coordinated with a concurrent NPP proposal for street lights and a CRP grant for providing hwnan services to residents. Turnover and crime statistics show clear problems. The proposal is well developed and specific. Exterior locks can be effective. The main concern is that the contribution from the for-profit apartment management could be higher. While they are contributing to the other grants as well, their hardware match is only $2500 (or 14� of the discounted cost of the locks) . [The citizen patrol aspect was not discussed by the advisory group. It does not involve any grant funds, and the $700 match is not essential to the proposal. ] 4. East Side Nei�hborhood Development Co. Purpose: Commercial area communication network Request: $20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The general idea is good and could serve as a model for other commercial areas in the city. The need is clear. The problem is the . �i,r`9� -/«a dependence on business band radios when telephones could work as well, at a lower initial cost and lower maintenance costs. If the idea is to be replicated elsewhere in the city, radios will not always be available. Even the attached article on mall watch refers to a telephone network. This proposal also included the highest hourly salary estimate. (Inconsistent salaries are an issue throughout the proposals) . 5. St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association Purpose: Commercial area communication coordination; hardware Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The real extent of the need is questionable in comparison to other commercial areas in St. Paul, but the idea is a worthy one, as noted above for the ESNDC proposal. The hardware expenditures with deep subsidies seem unwarranted. ($11,077 in grant money for hardware would be matched with only $3000 in merchant contributions) . The advisory group and Planning Commission recommend only the organizing aspects of the proposal, and notes that $2800 for overhead may be high for that part of the program. Some budget revision will be required for implementation. 6. Aurora/Saint Anthony Area Block Club Purpose: Beat police patrol for portion of University Avenue Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal requests two beat patrol officers for a 16 week period. The $40,000 total budget for that may seem high but is within reason. On-duty police would be more useful than private security officers since the area is primarily public property. The need is there, but too focused a patrol may simply move the problems a few blocks away. There is some mixed feeling that this is not the best expenditure of funds: it is expensive, but can be effective. The budget, particularly concerning neighborhood match and commitment of funds, will have to be clarified. If beat patrols are a good idea, it may be more appropriate as a police department policy and budget item. 7. St. Paul Community Anti-Crack Coalition Purpose: Alley lights and statistical analysis Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The advisory group sees real problems with the possibilities of meaningful statistical analysis of alley light effectiveness in deterring crime. The neighborhood factors are too complex for meaningful analysis. While the police department supports alley and yard lighting, this proposal is not specific about the target area and need for lights. The Commission could support a proposal to install alley lights if a targeted area need is demonstrated, but it sees little need for a statistical study. �yo-�� o 8. West Side Citizens Organization Purpose: Multi-cultural awareness Request: $ 17,800 (CDBG) Comments: The proposal does not provide enough information, particularly for a topic as highly charged as cultural awareness. There is too little information on who will conduct seminars, on program content, on citizen participation, or how any evaluation will take place. The proposal and any such pro�ect will need far more coordination to be effective. 9. District 2 Community Council Request: $ 14,360 (CDBG) Comments: A block watch effort has been started and should be encouraged to continue. One-hundred blocks may be too ambitious, particularly for a grant of less than $20,000. There is no targeting within the district boundaries. The proposal says that organizing will be throughout the district, yet it notes two police grids in particular need. Need was not adequately presented in the proposal. CRP grant in the area is supportive, though there is some confusion over which CRP grant addresses the neighborhood and which is focused on Roosevelt homes. Overall, a better use of neighborhood resources could have been proposed. 10. Riverview Neighborhood Crime Watch (CDBG) Request: $ 20,000 Comments: The neighborhood has a well thought through approach to crime watch and problem properties monitoring. This is reflected in the proposal, though it is unclear exactly what the crime watch funds will go toward. The proposal is, in effect, their entire work program. Crime prevention grants are simply another revenue source, and the direct match is hard to decipher. Still, the proposal could have been rearranged to fit the guidelines. There is also some question as to who reports to who. Given these problems, there is some reluctance to fund the proposal. However, the Commission does feel that the grant can be well spent. For a final contract, specific program goals would need to be emphasized, and unsecured match funds would have to be verified. 11. Da,yton's Bluff Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) [$19,280] Comments: This is well developed proposal in an area that needs block organizing efforts. Additional neighborhood resources are noted, and coordinator activities are spelled out. The Commission is uncomfortable with the $100/block organizing bonus, and recommends that the $2000 be added to the base salary and 30 blocks be established as a goal. Phone expenses must be deleted. , U` y� "!�� D 12. District 6 Planning Council Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This area needs crime prevention activity. The proposal is a very good effort. The community council may need more city staff help than some other organizations. The activity is well focused. $4000 for office supplies seems high, but much of that may be printing and postage. Some attention to youth work would help. The park service project should not count as a match, but it is not needed to meet the 1:1 requirement. The proposal shows a good variety of neighborhood match and participation by more than the neighborhood organization alone. The small target area should lead to some organizing success. 13. Thomas Dale Block Club Association Request: $ 14,360 (CDBG) Comments: A 100 block goal with $14,000 grant seems overly ambitious. The need is there, and the neighborhood has been doing some good work in related activities in the recent past. There is some confusion on crime watch sign costs that needs to be clarified. Note that there is no request for additional staff or salary. (Who will be doing the work?) The budget could be amended to allow more staff work by reallocating some resources. Some targeting could improve the effort. 14. Summit-University Planning Council Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) [$19,000] Comments: The need for crime watch activity in the neighborhood is clear to the Commission, but the proposal provides little detail. The request is for a full-time organizer (at a low $6/hour) to organize only 16 blocks. The goals should be higher. There is a serious problem with inadequate detail on the matching services and labor. It is not possible to assess the effectiveness of neighborhood resources or volunteer effort. Phone expenses of $1000 are ineligible. The proposal lacks any targeting within district boundaries. (See the Ramsey Hill Association proposal for a targeted area within the Summit-University area) . 15. Ramsey Hill Association Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comtnents: This proposal suggests a strong focus on crime watch activity alone, but without a broader block-club scope seen in most other proposals. This proposal may also overlap in geographical area with the planning council's proposal. There is a need in the area. Their 40-block goal is a fair portion of their two targeted police grids. There is a considerable amount of in-kind cash contributions on the part of the organization. . , ��yo /i� ° 16. District 10 Community Council Request: $ 19,500 (General Fund) [$18,800] Comments: Despite the stated priority focus on crime prevention, the extent of need in the area is not documented. Goals are 10 block clubs in each sub-district. Focus is on crime watch with broader block activities. The proposal does not reflect the full use of resources seen in some other proposals. The subsidized crime prevention hardware should be focused on households in need, and $700 in phone expenses is ineligible. The district wide effort may be too scattered. Working relationships with city departments are not developed. 17. Hamline Midway Coalition Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The proposal is not well thought out. Boiler-plate crime prevention activity does not explain what will actually be done with the grant in goals or evaluation. There is no evidence of city involvement, though some joint work with WSCO is mentioned. The match is unclear: are those funds secured? Are they geared to crime prevention? 18. St. Anthony Park Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This grant is to maintain a well-established block club program. While expansion goals are limited, the neighborhood has 100 active block clubs, and community newsletter, and established crime watch communications. The grant proposes to be carried out in con�unction with the St. Anthony Park commercial area grant. The group lists multiple neighborhood resources, and the outreach worker job description makes goals quite clear. As with the District 10 proposal, the subsidized hardware should be for those households most in need. 19. District 13 Consortium Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The proposed activities would help pull District 13 sub-areas together into a joint crime watch coordinating program. Sub-district goals are targeted to each specific area, based on existing activity. Some targeting within sub-districts should be explored. The entire match is "soft" volunteer time -- no hard match -- though the volunteer hours do seem to reflect clearly articulated goals. Staff responsibilities and hours need to be clarified. A more detailed budget will be required before implementation. , . �=yo-ii� � 20. District 14 Communitv Council Request: $ 19,642 (General Fund) Comments: This is a maintenance grant for an established program (as District 12 above) . Activities beyond basic crime watch are commendable and probably help the success of on-going efforts. The goal to add 50 block faces seems appropriate to staff level. Goals that go beyond basic crime prevention may help block clubs remain viable. 21. Highland Area Communitv Council Request: $ 16,250 (General Fund) Comments: This proposal is actually two separate activities: block organizing in two target areas and community-wide forums. The advisory group did not find the forums to be a good idea and questions how effective general meetings are in crime prevention. The organizing aspects seemed ambitious for the staff time. A general lack of focus was noted. 22. Summit Hill Association Request: $ 10,000 (General Fund) Comments: This is a basic proposal for an on-going block club program in need of organizational support. Goals are specific, and working relationships clear. Note that the request is more modest than many. The new goals seem appropriate to that budget. Neighborhood contributions from outside the organization should be explored. �� Vi y0 //W 0 ,,��T, �, GITY OF SAINT PAUL ,�+ ; °o , OFFICE OF THE MAYOR � iiii iiiii � . : �° 347 CITY IiALL +e�• SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA 55102 JAMESSCHEIBEL (612) 298-4323 - - -- MAYOR June 26, 1990 Council President William Wilson and Members of the City Council Seventh Floor City Hall Saint Paul, Minnesota 55102 Dear President Wilson and Council Members: Attached for your review and consideration are the Planning Commission's recommendations for funding for Cycle 1 of the Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program. The Commission carefully considered each of the proposals and the comments from a grants advisory group established in the adopted grant guidelines. The advisory group had representatives from the Police Department, Community Services, PED, and the St. Paul Companies. I have rewiewed the Planning Commission's report and support their funding recommendations. In addition, I am recommending full funding for the West Side Citizens Organization proposal on cross-cultural education and the integration of cultural diversity into West Side organizations. This innovative proposal addresses the root cause of many crime problems in the City. WSCO's experience with the project may serve later as a model for other efforts in St. Paul. The $17,800 request can be funded from the $30, 000 that the Planning Commission has recommended rolling over to the next funding cycle, therefore the Planning Commission's funding recommendations for other projects will remain unaffected. You will recall that, as the guidelines were being developed, I suggested a review before a second cycle of crime prevention grants. In light of the Commission's comments on the proposals and the process, I feel that it is even more critical that the Council take a close look at the program and funding procedures.

We commend the Council for establishing the program; it is obvious that there are needs and there are community organizations ready to address them with organized citizen effort. Proposals came from a variety of neighborhood groups and represented several innovative means to address crime prevention. The quality of the top seven proposals is high and we believe they will have substantial beneficial impact. On the whole, the Commission was disappointed with the quality of the proposals and funding recommendations beyond these seven are difficult. Too many of the proposals simply did not provide basic information required by the guidelines. As a consequence, the recommended funding falls short of the total amount available for the program, and we are in the position of recommending no funding for some areas where we know the need is critical. We believe, however, that it is better to withhold some of the funds and prepare for a new round of applications than to commit funds without a program description that provides a good basis for a contract. This is the first round for the program, and we have all acknowledged that the process would be somewhat experimental. The need for several improvements is clear. First, as you know, in the interest of time, the pre-application process was eliminated. With a pre-application process, technical assistance can be given where it is needed and important issues that need to be resolved in a final application can be addressed. That opportunity to provide some early comment and assistance in the interest of good proposals was sorely missed in this process. ��D//6 d President Bill Wilson and Members of the City Council June il, 1990 Page Two � Second, also because of the time factor, the Commission's review was based entirely on the written proposals submitted. There was not time for a committee or advisory group interview with each applicant, a step which often helps considerably to clarify applicants' intentions. This is a deficiency which can be remedied simply another time around. Third, there are groups and individuals with good experience in block organizing for crime prevention, and steps should be taken to encourage sharing of expertise. With some workshops or other provision for training, the quality of proposals could certainly be raised. These possibilities for improvement of the procedure should be taken into account in planning for a new program cycle. The Commission also wishes to suggest that the Council give some consideration to whether or not a competitive grant process is the best approach for distributing this amount of money for this purpose. We are concerned about the factor of relative need for crime prevention activity and the difficulty of taking this into account when evaluating proposals of widely differing quality. An alternative to be considered would be a formula allocation by district. Funds available per district could be equal, or crime levels and population could be factored into a formula. Awards could be based on match raised. Non-district-council groups should still be encouraged to participate, and this might mean some level of competition within districts. Proposal review and comment could still be sought from appropriate city departments and others with expertise, and innovative approaches could still be encouraged. An evaluation process like the current one might apply only to those cases where there was competition at the district level. The Commission will be happy to provide whatever assistance we can in implementation and further development of the Neighborhood Crime Prevention Program.

The funding recommendations on Attachment A are ranked and grouped according to Planning Commission ratings of the proposals. There were clear divisions in the ranking between the three groups of proposals. The first group includes those proposals that fully merit funding. With one exception, the Commission recommends funding at the applicant's requested level. The Dayton's Bluff Proposal has been reduced to $19,280 (from $20,000) after removing $720 of ineligible phone expenses from the grant budget. The Commission recommends that the $100 per block organizing "bonus" be eliminated, and that the $2000 for that purpose be used to supplement the proposed salary directly. The Commission notes that the Thomas Dale Block Club Proposal has set block watch organizing goals but has not requested additional staff. The Commission feels that some funds, such as $1520 for t-shirts, might better be applied toward staff time. Some reallocation within the $14,360 budget might be considered in implementation and a final budget. The second group of proposals includes grant requests that the Commission found to be somewhat less competitive. The Riverview Neig,hborhood Crime Watch, St. Anthony Park Community Council, District 14, and Summit Hill Association proposals seek to fund relatively well-established block club organizations. Not all can be fully funded with available funds. The Commission recommends $10,000 grants to each group. This is an approximate 50� reduction from initial requests, except for Summit Hill Association's $10,000 request. The Commission recommends $9000 funding for the St. Anthonv Park Merchants and Professional Association for only the commercial area organizing component of the proposal. The Commission does not recommend funding the deeply subsidized crime prevention hardware. The Commission sees the important need for commercial area crime prevention organizing and activity in the Payne and Arcade areas, as proposed by the East Side Neighborhood Development Co. It does not, however, feel that reliance on business band radio is warranted or advisable. The Commission notes that the mall watch newspaper article included with the grant application refers to phone networks for communication. The Commission encourages ESNDC to submit another proposal in subsequent grant cycles. The Commission is sympathetic to the need for residential area block club organizing in the Summit-Universitv neighborhood. The grant proposal, however, was inadequate, particularly in its lack of detail in the source and contributions of the required match and its rather modest goal to organize 16 block clubs. G,`q6��0� The Commission supports the on-going crime prevention and problem properties work of the Riverview Neighborhood Crime Watch and has recommended $10,000 in funding. This funding should be contingent on a substantially revised budget and description of goals that shows exactly what the grant will accomplish and how it will be matched by the neighborhood. It is not sufficient to merely include crime prevention grant funds into a general budget. Funds should not be allocated prior to submission of an acceptable budget. (NOTE: Final budgets and contracts will have to be developed with all grant recipients. Most applicants have submitted budgets that will require little modification. ) � The Planning Commission feels that the final group of proposals should not, at least in their present form, be funded. The Planning Commission is disappointed in the quality of most of the proposals -- even many of those in the middle group. In part this is attributable to the new program, a short application time line, and the lack of required pre-applications. Overall, the applicants showed too little regard for the specific criteria and requested information in the guidelines, including stated neighborhood and/or target area needs, a means of program evaluation, detailed neighborhood match information, and working relationships with city departments. The Commission recommends a schedule for future cycles that allows for pre-application review, city-neighborhood ccoperation in grant writing, and an interview session with applicants, before funding recommendations are made. V ��J//� � ATTACHMENT C June 4, 1990 Planning Commission comments on all proposals 1. District 1 Community Council Purpose: Apartment management/tenant organizing Request: $ 8,200 (General Fund) Comments: Coordination with the White Bear-Ruth small area plan and with the East Team Police and police crime prevention is commendable. Geographical targeting is appropriate to the need that exists in the area. Recruiting managers will require a lot of work. If anything, the proposed budget seems low for the stated goals. There is a lot of confusion over the cost of signs throughout the proposals. $200 for signs and other hardware in this proposal probably won't go very far. 2. District 2 Community Council: Apartment Progosal Purpose: Subsidy for crime security hardware for apartments Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The need for apartment management is clear in the neighborhood. Organization should precede other steps, including the hardware purchases requested in the proposal. There are questions about exactly what types of hardware is being considered and how effective it would be given the typical apartment doors and windows. The impact is questionable. The proposed budget is far too general. There are no established target areas or buildings. 3. West Seventh Community Center: Sibley Manor Apartments Purpose: Apartment building locks for 55 buildings at Sibley Manor Request: $ 14,825 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal is coordinated with a concurrent NPP proposal for street lights and a CRP grant for providing human services to residents. Turnover and crime statistics show clear problems. The proposal is well developed and specific. Exterior locks can be effective. The main concern is that the contribution from the for-profit apartment management could be higher. While they are contributing to the other grants as well, their hardware match is only $2500 (or 14$ of the discounted cost of the locks) . [The citizen patrol aspect was not discussed by the advisory group. It does not involve any grant funds, and the $700 match is not essential to the proposal. ] 4. East Side Nei�,hborhood Development Co. Purpose: Commercial area communication network Request: $20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The general idea is good and could serve as a model for other commercial areas in the city. The need is clear. The problem is the � yo-�i�� dependence on business band radios when telephones could work as well, at a lower initial cost and lower maintenance costs. If the idea is to be replicated elsewhere in the city, radios will not always be available. Even the attached article on mall watch refers to a telephone network. This proposal also included the highest hourly salary estimate. (Inconsistent salaries are an issue throughout the proposals) . 5. St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association Purpose: Commercial area communication coordination; hardware Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The real extent of the need is questionable in comparison to other commercial areas in St. Paul, but the idea is a worthy one, as noted above for the ESNDC proposal. The hardware expenditures with deep subsidies seem unwarranted. ($11,077 in grant money for hardware would be matched with only $3000 in merchant contributions) . The advisory group and Planning Commission recomtnend only the organizing aspects of the proposal, and notes that $2800 for overhead may be high for that part of the program. Some budget revision will be required for implementation. 6. Aurora/Saint Anthonv Area Block Club Purpose: Beat police patrol for portion of University Avenue Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal requests two beat patrol officers for a 16 week period. The $40,000 total budget for that may seem high but is within reason. On-duty police would be more useful than private security officers since the area is primarily public property. The need is there, but too focused a patrol may simply move the problems a few blocks away. There is some mixed feeling that this is not the best expenditure of funds: it is expensive, but can be effective. The budget, particularly concerning neighborhood match and commitment of funds, will have to be clarified. If beat patrols are a good idea, it may be more appropriate as a police department policy and budget item. 7. St. Paul Community Anti-Crack Coalition Purpose: Alley lights and statistical analysis Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The advisory group sees real problems with the possibilities of meaningful statistical analysis of alley light effectiveness in deterring crime. The neighborhood factors are too complex for meaningful analysis. While the police department supports alley and yard lighting, this proposal is not specific about the target area and need for lights. The Commission could support a proposal to install alley lights if a targeted area need is demonstrated, but it sees little need for a statistical study. �yo�/G a 8. West Side Citizens Organization Purpose: Multi-cultural awareness Request: $ 17,800 (CDBG) Comments: The proposal does not provide enough information, particularly for a topic as highly charged as cultural awareness. There is too little information on who will conduct seminars, on program content, on citizen participation, or how any evaluation will take place. The proposal and any such project will need far more coordination to be effective. 9. District 2 Communitv Council Request: $ 14,360 (CDBG) Comments: A block watch effort has been started and should be encouraged to continue. One-hundred blocks may be too ambitious, particularly for a grant of less than $20,000. There is no targeting within the district boundaries. The proposal says that organizing will be throughout the district, yet it notes two police grids in particular need. Need was not adequately presented in the proposal. CRP grant in the area is supportive, though there is some confusion over which CRP grant addresses the neighborhood and which is focused on Roosevelt homes. Overall, a better use of neighborhood resources could have been proposed. 10. Riverview Neighborhood Crime Watch (CDBG) Request: $ 20,000 Comments: The neighborhood has a well thought through approach to crime watch and problem properties monitoring. This is reflected in the proposal, though it is unclear exactly what the crime watch funds will go toward. The proposal is, in effect, their entire work program. Crime prevention grants are simply another revenue source, and the direct match is hard to decipher. Still, the proposal could have been rearranged to fit the guidelines. There is also some question as to who reports to who. Given these problems, there is some reluctance to fund the proposal. However, the Commission does feel that the grant can be well spent. For a final contract, specific program goals would need to be emphasized, and unsecured match funds would have to be verified. 11. Dayton's Bluff Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) [$19,280] Comments: This is well developed proposal in an area that needs block organizing efforts. Additional neighborhood resources are noted, and coordinator activities are spelled out. The Commission is uncomfortable with the $100/block organizing bonus, and recommends that the $2000 be added to the base salary and 30 blocks be established as a goal. Phone expenses must be deleted. �'ya i�� 12. District 6 Planning Council Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This area needs crime prevention activity. The proposal is a very good effort. The community council may need more city staff help than some other organizations. The activity is well focused. $4000 for office supplies seems high, but much of that may be printing and postage. Some attention to youth work would help. The park service project should not count as a match, but it is not needed to meet the 1:1 requirement. The proposal shows a good variety of neighborhood match and participation by more than the neighborhood organization alone. The small target area should lead to some organizing success. 13. Thomas Dale Block Club Association Request: $ 14,360 (CDBG) Comments: A 100 block goal with $14,000 grant seems overly ambitious. The need is there, and the neighborhood has been doing some good work in related activities in the recent past. There is some confusion on crime watch sign costs that needs to be clarified. Note that there is no request for additional staff or salary. (Who will be doing the work?) The budget could be amended to allow more staff work by reallocating some resources. Some targeting could improve the effort. 14. Summit-University Planning Council Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) [$19,000] Comments: The need for crime watch activity in the neighborhood is clear to the Cotnmission, but the proposal provides little detail. The request is for a full-time organizer (at a low $6/hour) to organize only 16 blocks. The goals should be higher. There is a serious problem with inadequate detail on the matching services and labor. It is not possible to assess the effectiveness of neighborhood resources or volunteer effort. Phone expenses of $1000 are ineligible. The proposal lacks any targeting within district boundaries. (See the Ramsey Hill Association proposal for a targeted area within the Summit-University area) . 15. Ramsey Hill Association Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal suggests a strong focus on crime watch activity alone, but without a broader block-club scope seen in most other proposals. This proposal may also overlap in geographical area with the planning council's proposal. There is a need in the area. Their 40-block goal is a fair portion of their two targeted police grids. There is a considerable amount of in-kind cash contributions on the part of the organization. ��o-�� 16. District 10 Community Council Request: $ 19,500 (General Fund) [$18,800] Comments: Despite the stated priority focus on crime prevention, the extent of need in the area is not documented. Goals are 10 block clubs in each sub-district. Focus is on crime watch with broader block activities. The proposal does not reflect the full use of resources seen in some other proposals. The subsidized crime prevention hardware should be focused on households in need, and $700 in phone expenses is ineligible. The district wide effort may be too scattered. Working relationships with city departments are not developed. 17. Hamline Midway Coalition Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The proposal is not well thought out. Boiler-plate crime prevention activity does not explain what will actually be done with the grant in goals or evaluation. There is no evidence of city involvement, though some joint work with WSCO is mentioned. The match is unclear: are those funds secured? Are they geared to crime prevention? 18. St. Anthony Park Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This grant is to maintain a well-established block club program. While expansion goals are limited, the neighborhood has 100 active block clubs, and community newsletter, and established crime watch communications. The grant proposes to be carried out in conjunction with the St. Anthony Park commercial area grant. The group lists multiple neighborhood resources, and the outreach worker job description makes goals quite clear. As with the District 10 proposal, the subsidized hardware should be for those households most in need. 19. District 13 Consortium Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The proposed activities would help pull District 13 sub-areas together into a joint crime watch coordinating program. Sub-district goals are targeted to each specific area, based on existing activity. Some targeting within sub-districts should be explored. The entire match is "soft" volunteer time -- no hard match -- though the volunteer hours do seem to reflect clearly articulated goals. Staff responsibilities and hours need to be clarified. A more detailed budget will be required before implementation. C,�yo,��° 20. District 14 Community Council Request: $ 19,642 (General Fund) Comments: This is a maintenance grant for an established program (as District 12 above) . Activities beyond basic crime watch are commendable and probably help the success of on-going efforts. The goal to add 50 block faces seems appropriate to staff level. Goals that go beyond basic crime prevention may help block clubs remain viable. 21. Highland Area Community Council Request: $ 16,250 (General Fund) Comments: This proposal is actually two separate activities: block organizing in two target areas and community-wide forums. The advisory group did not find the forums to be a good idea and questions how effective general meetings are in crime prevention. The organizing aspects seemed ambitious for the staff time. A general lack of focus was noted. 22. Summit Hill Association Request: $ 10,000 (General Fund) Comments: This is a basic proposal for an on-going block club program in need of organizational support. Goals are specific, and working relationships clear. Note that the request is more modest than many. The new goals seem appropriate to that budget. Neighborhood contributions from outside the organization should be explored. �C/0�//�O� city of saint paul planning commission resolution file number 90-55 �}ej June 8, 1990 � NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM First Cycle Funding Recommendations WHEREAS, The Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program guidelines state that Saint Paul Planning Commission will evaluate grant applications and transmit funding recommendations to the Mayor and City Council; WHEREAS, the Department of Planning and Economic Development has received twenty-two applications for the first program cycle; and WHEREAS, the Housing and Neighborhoods Committee of the Planning Commission has carefully reviewed each of the proposals submitted, has considered the comments of a grants advisory group, and has made recommendations to the Commission concerning the proposals submitted; NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission recomrnends the funding priorities identified in Attachment A, and makes project and program comments in Attachments B and C; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission recommends that $5,000 be retained for small grants and that the balance of unallocated funds be rolled-over for a Fall, 1990, second cycle application program; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission recommendation be transmitted to the Mayor and City Council for their consideration and action. moved by HIRTE s�;conded by TREI HEL. _ in favor- against 3 � �U-//�U NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM GUIDELINES Adopted by the Saint Paul Planning Commission on April 27, 1990 Adopted, with amendments, by the Saint Paul City Council on May 8, 1990 . ��9�i�� NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM GUIDELINES May s, 1990 I. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Purpose: The Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program is designed to help neighborhood non-profit groups develop programs that reduce crime. Activities may include, but are not limited to, organizing and expanding block club networks for the purpose of neighborhood stabilization. While the primary focus of the program is crime prevention, this is a flexible, multi-use program that recognizes that additional neighborhood activities enhance crime prevention efforts. Supportive activities are allowed under the program. Authorization. Term: The grant program is funded by a 1990 City budget allocation of $200,000. These guidelines are to be effective for this first-year pilot program. At the end of one year, pending future budget allocations, these guidelines will be reviewed and amended as necessary. II. FUNDING Grant Limits: Program grants are available for up to $20,000 each. There is no minimum grant limit, (but see small grants section following) . Grants will be awarded on a competitive basis. In order to build and expand crime prevention activity throughout the city, no more than $40,000 will be awarded within any single community planning district. In some instances, the Planning Commission may recommend changes in a proposed budget. If any funds remain unallocated, a second grant cycle will be held in the fall of 1990. Funds must be spent by June 31, 1991. Funding will be on a reimbursement basis due to CDBG funding source requirements. To assist individual block-clubs and organizations needing small grants, $5,000 will be set aside, and an additional $5,000 will be put in contingency. These grants are intended for postage, supplies, crimewatch signs, and other purposes directly related to neighborhood crime prevention. The maximum amount of any small grant shall be $500. No match will be required for these grants. Staff in the Department of Planning and Economic Development will work with a crime prevention Grant Advisory Committee (including representatives from the Police Department, Department of Community Services, and a neighborhood representative) to determine the small grant awards. A separate application form for small grants is enclosed. Applications are due on May 25, 1990. Any unallocated funds will revert to the larger grant program to be awarded this grant cycle. 1 . �,�y�'/i�s Eligible Expenses include direct expenses related to establishing and maintaining crime prevention activity (such as staff salary and � benefits) , education, communications (supplies, production costs, delivery costs, mileage reimbursement, postage) , and subsidies for the purchase of crime prevention hardware (fixed asset improvements to homes and businesses) . Ineligible Expenses include vehicles, equipment purchases, office space rent, phone, food, drinks, and entertainment. (See neighborhood contributions section below) . Eligible Areas include all seventeen community planning districts. Eli�ible Applicants include district councils, residential block club organizations, and other neighborhood-based non-profit organizations. Nei�hborhood Contributions: Each proposal must be matched with neighborhood contributions at a minimum 1:1 ratio. Contributions must be directly related to the proposed activities and must be contributed during the period following initial application through the duration of the grant. Contributions may include direct financial resources such as supplies and foundation grants, equipment, and in-kind services including volunteer labor. The value of volunteer labor shall be $10 per hour. Time spent in meetings directly and exclusively related to the implementation of neighborhood crime prevention activities may be counted as volunteer labor, up to a maximum of 50� of the total neighborhood match. Time spent in general meetings of the organization shall not be counted. All volunteer labor, including time in meetings, must be documented in writing. III. APPLICATION Process: Pre-applications are encouraged but not required. Pre-applications will be accepted until May 11. The pre-application gives staff time to clarify and/or correct any issues before final applications are submitted. Final applications are due May 25, 1990. No late applications will be accepted. Contents: Applications must contain the following: 1. A brief description of the pro�ect, including goals, objectives, activities. 2. A budget including how program funds will be spent and an estimate of neighborhood contributions including volunteer labor. 3. If the proposal includes salary for staff, a statement of staff responsibility, including to whom the staff reports. 4. The name of the organization that will implement the program. 5.

SELECTION � Selection Process: The selection process is competitive. The number of pro�ects funded will depend on the quality of the proposals and available resources. Applicant groups should contact their appropriate district council and attempt to coordinate proposals within a district. District councils will be asked to submit comments to PED regarding the proposals and how they meet district goals and objectives. The Planning Commission, working with a Grants Advisory Committee from the Police Department, the Department of Community Services, the Department of Planning and Economic Development, neighborhoods, and other appropriate agencies, will review and rate the applications and identify those proposals which it thinks should be funded. The Planning Commission recommendations will be sent to the Mayor and City Council for final approval. It is the intent that The City Council will make final funding decisions by June 30. Small grant applications will be reviewed for compliance with the program purpose and selection criteria. In the event that small grant requests exceed the initial $5,000 allocated in the program, the Grants Advisory Committee will recommend to the City Council the projects to be funded, not to exceed a total of $10,000. Applications are due on May 25, 1990. Selection Criteria: Selection will be based on overall program goals and anticipated accomplishments. The program is looking for: - how projects relate to stated neighborhood needs - effective use of grant funds with existing neighborhood resources - the extent to which volunteer labor is "leveraged" - broad-based citizen participation - District Council comment and support - working relationships with appropriate city departments, including Police and Community Services - target area need for proposed activities V. PROJECT RESPONSIBILITY Contract: For approved projects, the final application and budget will serve as the basis for a contract between the City of St. Paul and the applicant. PED will develop contracts appropriate to the projects, funding source requirements, and liability insurance requirements. Status Reports: Summary status reports will be due January 15, 1991, and within thirty days of the completion of the project. Evaluation Forum: Grant recipients will be expected to attend a forum at or near the end of the pro�ect cycle in order to share experiences. This first cycle is an experimental program. Assessment of funded projects is important to continued success of the program. 3 �-��-,�� Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program Use this format for both the , Planning Division pre-application and final Dept. of Planning and Economic Development application. 25 West Fourth Street St. Paul, Minnesota 55102 (612) 228-3371 FINAL APPLICATION DUE: MAY 25, 1990 APPLICATION Please type all responses Group or Organization Submitting Application Name: Telephone: Address: Contact Person: Daytime Phone: Project Description: (Limit this description to one page! ) (On a separate sheet, provide a brief description of the goals, objectives, activities and specific steps that will be taken; any existing crime prevention activities now underway; existing need and how the project addresses that need; and a statement of how your organization will manage and evaluate this project; and staff responsibility.

St. Paul Police Department Crime Prevention Pilot Program ;"� Communi ty � Ann Cieslak Organizer May 24, 1990 Signatur of Individual Typed Name Title Date Completing Application District 1 Project Description Goal :The goal of this project is to improve neighborhood livability. The project will address issues,induding crime prevention and community building, targeting the over 1,000 units of multi-family residences in the area of District 1,north of Interstate 94,bounded roughly by White Bear Avenue,Third Street and McKnight Road. Objectives: The project will have two main objectives: to create an active apartment managers association and to form block clubs in the apartment complexes on a floor-by-floor basis (approximately 6-12 units per club). The purpose of the apartment manager association will be to develop strategies to attract tenants who pay rent on time, do not destroy property and do not engage in cruninal activity . Training to deal with problem tenants will be induded. The block clubs' aim will be to reduce the opportunity for crime and to increase the social cohesion of the apartrnent dwellers by empowering residents to become involved with their neighbors, by teaching crime prevention strategies,and by encouraging tenant initiative and responsibility. Need :This project will be undertaken in conjunction with the development of a Small Area Plan for the White Bear-Ruth neighborhood, begun in May, 1990 by the St. Paul Planning Commission. The plan was initiated at the request of the District 1 Community Council in response to concern about the density of residential development in the area. The task force named to develop this plan will serve as a resource for this project. (Small area plan documents attached). This project will directly affect the needs of this neighborhood as identified in the District Council request for a small area plan. Crime statistics support the need for crime prevention activities in this area (grid 119). Grid 119 had 1815 police calls from January 1989 to March 1990, more than double the number in the grid immediately to the west (grid 118-805 calls). Grid 119 had 361 total offenses in 1989 and ranked 21 from the top out of 189 grids within the city. Coordination:This project will work in cooperation with the East Team Police and Sara Cwayna of the Police Department's Crime Prevention Pilot Program. Cwayna will develop block dubs in the single family blocks and will share information and strategies with this project. Both projects will work in tandem to develop strategies to target livability issues. Other liasions will be formed with the Fire Department and Building Inspectors. Merrick Community Services has agreed to participate in addressing human service needs. Others participating will be the Conway/Van Dyke Block Club and the Concerned Neighbors Association whose members presendy work on livability issues.The manager of the Hazelwood Apartments has agreed to participate and to encourage the involvment of other managers. District 1 News will be one method used to publicize the project. Staff: A staff person will be hired to manage this program. Staff will initiate the manager's association,organize block clubs within the apartment buildings,monitor crime data,respond to requests,publicize the program,coordinate and communicate with the East Team Police and the Crime Prevention coordinator and other appropriate rity departments. Staff will report to the District 1 Community Organizer. The District 1 Community Council will have oversight responsibility. Evaluation will be based upon objective criteria,including the creation of the apartment managers' association,the number of complexes represented,the number of blocic clubs formed,the number of police calls,and crime statistics. Subjective criteria will be developed based upon the Small Area Plan recommendations.

On behalf of the Planning Commission, I would like to ask that the District Council appoint representatives to a small area plan task force for this planning process. As you know, the District Council and neighborhood residents have been concerned about the density of residential development in this area. The study will focus on appropriate land uses for remaining underdeveloped properties that are zoned for multi-family use. A preliminary list of other issues that may benefit from analysis as part of this small area plan include: 1) vacant, single-family zoned residential land along Fremont Ave. ; 2) development of new and maintenance of existing commercial development; 3) stormwater drainage problems; 4) the need for sidewalks; and 5) upkeep of residential properties. The Land Use Committee of the Planning Commission has recommended the attached resolution for approval by the full Commission at its next meeting on April 13th. The resolution (which I anticipate will be approved as presented) appoints Gladys Morton of the Planning Commission to the small area plan task force and asks that the District Council appoint the remaining members to include balanced representation from the following interest groups: 1) single-family homeowners; 2) owners of property that may be rezoned; 3) apartment owners; 4) apartment renters; 5) area business owners; 6) neighborhood elementary schools; and 7) the District 1 Council. I have assigned Donna Drummond from the Planning Division staff to provide assistance to the small area plan task force. She has done some preliminary work and would like to begin working with the task force in late April or early May. I envision that the task force will need to meet 3 or 4 times in May and June to develop its recommendations for consideration by the Planning Commission. � ��yo�i/�o� � Mr. Jay Fonkert March 30, 1990 Paqe Two Please call me (228-3380) if you have any questions or concerns you wouZd like to discuss further at this point. I look forward to receiving the names of the small area plan task force members and beginning the work of the study. Since,rely, , � � � ,. ,. ��/�/ % 1 (;� �� c � / � , .

ATTACHMENT 1 . � Pro.i ect descr i pt i on Tl�e higt� rate of crime and the perception of lax security in large apartment complexes are a direct cause of community instability, higl� vacancy rates and rapid turnover of tenants. By improving the security of both units and build- ings, we t�ope to reduce rates or burgidry and crimes committed and encourdged by tlie entry of unauthorized persons to buildings. We hope then to encourage occupancy by stable lony-term residents. This project has two primary goals: Reduce crime in multi-family buildings. Increase occupancy rate and increase length-of-stay of tenants. These will be accomplished by conductiny building security audits and providing matching funds to apartment owners on a one-to-one basis for the installation of devices to increase security and tenant accountability for entry. Security audits will be defined as a review by the police or qualified building prufessionals. There is no "certificatiar�" for this category of w�rk. We will concentrate improvements to two or three complexes depending on size and costs of improvements. Eligible improvements for the proyram will be: Locking devices, Window screens for lower level apartments, Security doors, Call-box systems. Apartment complaxes will be selected on the basis of the following. The District 2 Community Council will R�ake the final selection. --Willingness of owners to make a commitment to improve overall quality of building in addition to making security in�provements. Butlding must meet all immediate healtt� and safety requirements. --Willingness of owner to commit to meet minimurn tenant screening and selection criteria as agreed to by managers' association. --Ltkelihood of amount of impr-ovements which can be afforded under this program having maximum effect in deter�ring c►-ime. Estimate of "most bang for the buck" to be done by Police Department or other outside qualified security auditor. --Participation of manager/owner in neighborhood efforts including crime watch organizxatio� and Rbnagers associatfon. --Eligibility for and participa�ic�n in CRP project. At least two seperate complexes will be assisted with program funds. Organizing of tenant crime-Natct� and providing for uther physical improvements to buiidi�gs will be accomplisFied alongside this program. These efforts will be coordinated through District 2 and fu�ded with otf�er sources. The 67 hours of staff time mentioned in the buciget would be done by a member of the Oistrict 2 staff and supervised through established procedures.

The program will be coordinated with two existing and one potential (requested under this same funding source) programs. The police Department's crime prevention office on the East Side (Sara Cwayna) will assist with start-up or support of existing block watch efforts. The East Area Resident Unity Project (CRP funded through D2CC) is working in low-income apartment areas and will both coordinate staff effort and assist in identifying specific resident security needs if buildings selected are CRP eligible. Under the existing D2CC block contact program, residents will be encouraged to participate in community activities. Funds are currently being sought to continue this program. In addition, the properties selected for this program will be participants in ongoing work of the apartment managers group which has been operating on the East Side for 4 years. � D-/�(a � , / ��( � '� 3 W � �•�` �p � r � y/ � � ` � � � � � � ~ O"�� ►W- �. � � � W � p = � .

Goaam ' i zpr�/90 Sign ture of Individual ype ame itle Date Completing Application � Attact�ment A-1 � , This project will expand District 2's fledylin_y Block Contact network by 100. This network is a major coirxr�unity-L,uilding effort which will result in lon� term crime preventfun and cr-ime reductian. Tl�e pro,Ject will also provide specific training to Block Contacts in crime prevention techniques and enable tl��es� v��luntpers to �isseminate crime preventton information and organize neigl�bors in crime prevention efforts. Police grids with the highest crime rafies (e.g. , grids 38 and 57) pai-ticularly need ta be recruited for crime prevention programs. Tf�e Bluck Contact network is being established to enable the District 2 Community Council to address a series of tF�reats to the stability of our eommunity, including crime and ttie perception thereof. In single family areas, Block Contacts are on a block or block face; in apartment areas, they are in a building or apartment complex. District 2 is a very large community; with a population of 25,000 it is significantly targer than most City planning districts. Our present neighbor- hood communicatians through community newspapers, fliers, and meetings are acceptable wl�en the area is facing rr�jor crises or controversial decisions, but are not as effective as a long-term means of community-building. Dist- rict 2 recently begdn the Block Contact program and has developed some aspects of a communications network through lawn sign volunteers, block clubs, and liaison work with the East Side Apartment Managers, Roosevelt Resident Coun- cil , churches, PTAs and other groups in the community. ln addition, in some areas there are also very informal social networks of residents. We would like ta identify new constituencies and groups currently under- served and underrepresented by District Z (such as dpartment residents and minarlty persons) , and use the Block Contact network to encourage tl�ese people into the process. The Resident Unity Project, for which this grant will provide additional support, will provide a maJur means of organizing within apartment areas and witl�in the Soutt�east Asian populatfan. We would like to increase the effectiveness of our two-way Block Contact network by developing and sending a newsletter on a regular, at least monthly basis to block contacts and to develop and provide training opportunities for them to becorne effective at various aspects of corr�r�unity-building, including crimewatch techniques. This project addresses stated neighbot-f�ood needs. The emphasis of this proposal is to serve as much of that corrxnunity as possible rather than concen- trating �our efforts on creating 10 or 20 block clubs. Many of the block contacts serving as liaison volunteers in this program will work through other efforts such as that operated by tt�e Police Depar-tment to organize their blocks more specifically for crime prevention. The . project builds on efforts we have begun and is coordinated with our �recently-awarded East Area Resident Unity CRP program and with the Police Department's block club organization program. This project leverages volunteer labor extensively, the labor of indivi- dusl block cuntact volunteers li��king their neighbors with cartimunity activi- ties including crime-fighting efforts. It wiil be operated and is supported by the District 2 Community Council to provide for broad-based citizen parti- cipation and volunteerism. Staff invalved would be employed by the Distrfct 2 Community Council and supervised pursuant to established procedures. Staff involved through the CRP program will serve according to tf�e guidelines cited in the exececuted CRP contract. The program is monitored and evaluated by the District's Comrnunica- tions Cor�xnittee, which will coordinate with the Resident Unity Project Commit- tee and which is responsible to tt�e elected Board of Directors. � � �,��l�i/6� � Phone: 731-6842 � �ll�Y ll �ll`�� 11 � ��1°11� �J�� 1 �!�11� 2169 STILLWATER AVENUE ST.

Schiller, Director Date Pru_i��t Description: � The history of the �est Side is that of a refuge and settlernent grounds dating back to the 1800s when French, Germar�, Irish and Jewish immigrants first settled here. They were fallowed by Hispanics, 5yrians, Lebanese, Scandinavians, African Ameri�ans and Arrierican Indians. The rnost recent settlers of the 1980s and '90s are �utheast Asians who hatre fled frorn their war-torn homelands. The West Side is multi-cultural which is a potential strength of the nei�hborhaod, but it. is also a rource of community devisiveness. Currently, cultural diversity is not only an untapped resource, but is +� source of racial tensians that motivate acts af violer�ce against people beGause of the calor of their skin and traditions/customs that var*,� from the "norm°. Th� purpose of this project is cross-cultural educati�n and the inte�ratian af cultural diversity intc► �est Side orgar�iaatians in order ta, first, prevent and reduce covert and overt acts of racismlcrime, and secondly, to build upon the strei��ths of each culture as a me�ns to stren�then the community as a whole.

Participants will also have an opportunity to plan recreational , social and cultural group activities. The Dayton's Bluff Community Council recently conducted a survey of the 24 block clubs that were organized by Dave Saumweber in 1988. Of those 24. only 10 remain marginally active. Various responses included "No time without Dave. . .don't know how without Dave. . .we' re too scared of each other. . .too much turn over. . .an isolated block club doesn't do any good" .

PROJECT OPPORTUNITY: But a model exists in the Mall Watch Program (which is described in the attached article) for organizing businesses in shopping malls into telephone networks to combat shoplifting, bad checks, and other disruptive and criminal behavior. With business-band radio providing dedicated, two-way, group communication capabilities, the technology now exists for applying this model to neighborhood commercial strips. And with anticipated purchases of new radio equipment in the Saint Paul Fire and Police Departments, a source of donated radios exists with which to initiate a pilot program on a neighborhood commercial strip in great need of increased security. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Saint Paul Police Department intends to replace 15 or 20 of its hand-held portable radio units and purchase new equipment from Motorola. Motorola has offered to give the Police Department a trade-in on these units (which it would not normally do) , to recrystal them, and to donate them to the East Side Neighborhood Development Company, which would then obtain a Business Band Radio license from the FCC. ESNDC would then hire a coordinator to establish the Business Security Network Program (or BISNET, for short) along the lines of the Mall Watch program. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: To reduce the economic loss to the business community from crime, to significantly improve the safety of the commercial strips, and to accelerate the organization of the Payne Arcade business community. PROJECT ACTIVITIES: * Educate the business community about the Program. * Hire a program coordinator. * Design BISNET protocols and procedures for operating the system in cooperation with the District 5 Block Watch Programs and the Block Club Coordinator in the Saint Paul Police Department. * Solicit volunteers from the business community willing to become members of the BISNET Program and train them in the use of the equipment. * Monitor the daily use of the BISNET Program, supervise the use of the equipment, maintain the equipment, and evaluate its effectiveness. MANAGEMENT AND EVALUATION: The BISNET Program would be managed by a Program Coordinator, who would be hired and supervised by the Executive Director of the East Side Neighborhood Development Company which is working in close cooperation with the Payne-Arcade Business Association. The Program Coordinator would have to have skills in organizing and training volunteers, communicating with a wide range of business and community people, operating and maintaining a complex system, and the ability to respond quickly, appropriately, and tactfully to sometimes sensitive situations. The success of the program should be measurable by the numbers of security alerts and the number of apprehensions and by a decrease in commercial losses that can be documented by a questionnaire circulated to the business community at the end of the program year. Based on this questionnaire and police statistics, the Program Coordinator will prepare a written evaluation of the BISNET Program. . � �'��o-i��o � BISNET: THE BUSINESS SECURITY I�ETWORK PRO�RAM GRANT PRIVATE MATCH COST CATEGORY REQUEST MATCH SOURCE Program Coordinator ($15/hr, 20 hrs/wk) �15,600 �0 Office facilities, supplies, &printing 54,400 SO Insurance for system SO 5250 Business or foundation donations.

DIVISION OF NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELOPMENT JAMES SCHEIBEL 25 West Fourth Street,Saint Paul,Minnesota 55112 MAYOR 612-228-3200 May 25, 1990 ��7�� Mr. Tom Harvey � Department of Planning and Economic Development llth Floor, City Hall Annex 25 W. 4th Street Saint Paul, NIlV 55102 Dear Tom: Attached is a grant application from the East Side Neighborhood Development Company for the new Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program which you are administering. While this project is contingent on a couple of factors that are not at this time nailed down, I believe that it represents a tremendous opportunity for developing a new approach to community crime prevention, not only on the commercial strip, but in residential areas as well. The contingencies are two: * The first is that though the Saint Paul Police Department has budgeted for replacing 24 hand-held radio units and 1 repeater base station this year, that purchase hinges on where the budgetary cutbacks will ultimately fall. You should also know that the Fire Department is budgeting for replacing about the same number of portable radios in the first quarter of 1991, so that if this experiment is funded, and if it proves successful, the opportunity exists for replicating it with additional recycled equipment in another neighborhood next year. As an aside, there is another small benefit to the City for recycling its radio equipment in this way, and that is that Motorola is willing to give the City some trade-in value which it would ordinarily not allow. * The second contingency is that Motorola has not finalized what it is willing to offer as part of the package. I am assuming that they will ultimately be willing to recrystal the units which is needed to give them another frequency which will not conflict with existing Police channels, and that they will be willing to donate recharging units as well. Since this possibility of a trade-in and donation of Police Department equipment was presented just yesterday, it has not been possible to finalize the arrangements and to write down the understandings of the various parties. I expect to be able to resolve most of these uncertainties in the next week or so, and I will keep you informed of my progress. If such an arrangement can be worked out, I am confident that the BISNET Program sketched out in broad brush strokes here can have a significant impact on improving the Payne and Arcade business communities which are currently at such risk.

The District 6 land Use Plan describes the area as a "sporatic mixture of residential and industrial use...an intermix throughart the area making it ' visally unattractive." lhis type of land use configuration contributes to many other difficulties, including a r significant amamt of crime. The District 6 Plan states that "one of the highest concerns expressed in District 6 is crime...the largest increases in crime, nearly 44q, have been in the Northeast/Center of our district" which includes the Mackubin/Front area. "The most frequent violations are crimes against property." 1he latter plan also identifies the lack of and subsequent need for a "comnunity-based crirr� prevention program Created in close cooperation with district citizenS and police officials." Residents in the area are concerned, yet distraught by the many difficu�ties and few successes their camxmity has encountered. Recen ly, they have experienced limited success with the de�nolition of several vacant industrial buildings �mder the nusiance ordinance; buildings that have stood unoccupied as a monirnent for repeated acts of vandelism for nearly two decades. This success has created sane mar�entun, but many issues rgnain unchalle�x�e�i. Marydale Park is a neighborhood park located in the Mackubin/Front district. For years, this site has also been plagued by vandelism; acting as a gathering ground for �mdesirables/undesirable behavior. Loeb Lake is situated in the heart of Marydale Park. This man�nade lake has also created much controversy. Maintained by the DNR, Loeb Lake has been the site for two accidential drownings of you� children; the most recent occuring last fall. The carmunity has requested that safety measures be taken to ensure the safety of Marydale Park/Loeb Lake, but to no avail. The housing condition is another prevalent concern in the area. The 1980 Census indicates that in Census Tract 308 and 313, which represent Mackubin/Front, nearly 50'� of the housing stock was built prior to 1939; and subsE- quently, there exists a need to focus on housing rehabilitiation. The 1980 Census data also identifies this area as having a mixture of low and moderate incar�e levels. Census Tract 308 is carprised of 4,415 persons with a median incane of $15,775 and 25.T� of the resi�letns are below 200'� of poverty level. Census Tract 313 is c�riseci of 2,083 persons with a median incane of $13,073 and 36% of the residents are belo�w 200'� of poverty level. Tl�e incar�e level of the neighborhood may be a contributing factor to the lack of pursuance of housing maintenence/ rehabilitation programs. The D6PC in conjunction with City Council, Evirorniental Health and St. Paul Fbusing Rehab. Offi�e carpleted a "mini-sweep" this past spring to began to address this issue. The "s►�" �camassed code enforcerr�ent with rehabilitation information and specialized 4% loan program. In a few hours, we noted 66 exterior housing code violations and distrib�rted hundred's of packets of housing inforniation. The "sweep" was a beginning, a band-aid; not the cure. An opportunity exists to further involve residents in programs geared to their afford- ability level.

T?ie program will provide a systematic, proven rr�thod of block club formation/retention; instituting a block by block process based on the St. Paul Police Dept.'s Crirr� Prevention Unit mxiels and the Take Back Your Block Publication marketed by Dayton's Bluff I�IS. Our goal is to create in excess of 30 active block clubs; provide up to 40 matching grants for crime prevention hardware; host 3-4 neighborhood operated events to utilize Marydale Park--prarpte a sense of comnmity; refer 30 households to housing rehabilitation programs through the St. Paul I-i�ne Loan Furid and Neigh. Energy Consortiun and addr�ess the needs of the corrrnunity in overseeeing the neccessary instal- lation of safety/precautionary devices in the Park. In addition, block clubs will serve to prarate/increase par- ticipation in other programs such as curbside recycling and act as a referral source to agencies such as the N.E. Medical Center, NEAR, Block Nurse Program and Capitol Camunity Services. In order to accarplish our goals, the D6PC will continue to utilize the services and strengthen our relationship with several city departrnents and organizations including: Dept. of Public Works, Parks & Rec., Planning and Econ. Developrnent, DNR, St. Paul Harie Loan Fund, NN GREEN, National Asson. of Conservation and Service Core, ParkWatch, Neigh. Energy Consortiun and the St. Paul Police Dept. Currently, Police Officer Archie Smith is an official representative and active participant in our district council. District 6 has also worked well with other units within the dept. including Officer Friendly (Sgt. Thomas) and NAO's. District 6 believes that the challer�ges faced by the said area are not insurnquntable, but do warrant the attention of a 3/4 time block club organizer who will purpue the issues identified with residents/business owners and agencies with systernatic perserverance; coordinate/facilitate crime prevention/blak club activities; refer and prarote housing rehab. and other identified programs as well as record and submit required docur�entation. The block club organizer will be responsible to the Pirmary Camiunity Organizer and to the D6PC Board. The Council will appoint a resident corrmittee to oversee the execution of objectives as derronstrated with our cur ent U-RAP(S) and our NPP; both of which rely heavily on volunteer labor/participation.

Yes � No If yes, identify. � W• �� -Ronald W. Pauline President 5-25-90 Signatu e of Individual � Typed Name Title Date Completing Application We are proposing to fund two Saint Paul Police officers on an overti.me basis to patrol the target area for five days a week, eight hours each day, from July 1 through October 19, 1990. The hours of the day and days of the week the officers work will be determined by current crime data, input from the community and the Saint Paul Police Department. The Saint Paul Police Department would retain management rights over the police officers and would, in fact, provide supervisory services as needed. The Saint Paul Police Department has agreed to supply any equipment necessary to the operation. ��=9a i/�o � � ' We have for 18 years been pres�nted with vagrance, loitering, drunkenness, indecent exposure and panhandling in the target areas mentioned in the proposal. There is a liquor store on the corner of St. Albans Street and University Avenue and many alcoholics seem to loiter either on street corners or in the alley in close proximity to it. Because of the pornography at the Faust and Flick and nude dancing at the Belmont Club; the majority of the property adj acent to both alleys are rental in need of proper management and care. Some of these houses are utilized as havens for vagrants (Flop houses) . Our goal is to eliminate vagrancy, loitering, panhandling, public drinking, loud profanity, uninating in the streets and alleys from this target area. Also, as of the past few years narcotic traffic and minor gang infiltration has been evident. We need beat police from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. , Monday - Saturday. These beat police will stringently enforce all laws as it applies to disrespectful and disruptive, immoral, and illegal activity in this target area. Presently, Olson Brothers liquor store employ off duty police to control the loitering on its property and the police department make loiterers disburse on the corners and in the alley, but that only happens as long as the police are there. When residents approach the Vagrants (Mrs. Goodlow, 681 Aurora Ave. , - Cheryl Allen, 649 Aurora Ave. , -Graham Butler, 689 Aurora Ave. , - Ronald W. Pauline, 749 Aurora Ave. ) they usually disburse but when you leave they are right back. Our block club owns 675 Aurora Avenue, located directly behind the liquor store; it's newly renovated and rented to a respectful family. We've been working with the Code enforcement departments as to cleaning up properties through the use of Summary abatements. We have one house at 639 Aurora Avenue that we have monitored the traffic of Vagrants and there have been numerous police calls. One of our priorities is to address this property in a stringent manner, (i.e. - nuisance house) . The businesses are being hurt tremendously because of the activities in the area because many people do not like to be in a negative atmosphere as exists now. We will monitor this project weekly as to the disposition of various laws to discourage people from viewing this area as a desirable place to loiter and present us with disrespectful and disruptive behavior. 1.

His determination to change the perception and increase the liveability of the University Avenue area, stabilize the neighborhood, and enhance the viability of the businesses is to be commended. Although some progress has been made in the area of street prostitution and the effort to close down the porno theaters has been successful, work still needs to be done to control the panhandling, the drunkenness, and the vagrancy that takes place in the neighborhood.

We agree with you that constant pressure by a visible law enforcement officer is necessary to move the loitering, drunkedness, littering and possible criminal behaviors which are being exhibited by a number of people congregating near the Olson Bros. liquor store. In the event the police department is not willing to allocate the resources without additional funding, we would be willing to provide some financial support. The Bank has experienced five (5) breakins to automobiles in our parking lot in the last two (2) months. In addition, we have hired a guard ourselves to escort our employees to and from work each day. We hope the continual presence of a police officer would help to reduce the crime rate in the immediate vicinity.

In 1989 grid 129 ranked fifth in overall offenses in the City of St . Paul . Since 1987 , robbery in this area has increased 71� , aggravated assault has increased 12$ and auto theft has increased 70$ . Since 1988 , rape has increased 33� and theft has increased 19$ . In grid 130 , since 1987 auto theft has increased 41$ and vandalism has increased 40� . Crime is a serious and increasinq concern of both the Ramsey Hill Association and its area residents. Active citizen participation must be leveraged to identify problem properties, specific geographical areas of concern and the responsible property owners , business owners and residents of these areas . Once identified, neighbors in the form of block clubs , can open up communication between the responsible parties and begin to organize crime prevention strategies to deal with specific areas of need: trash and garbage, drug trafficking, noise, disruptive behavior, vandalism etc . To accomplish this , the Ramsey Hill Association requests $20 , 000 . 00 to fund a Block Club Organizer for the geographical area corresponding to police grid 129 and 130 . The Ramsey Hill Association has had a volunteer task force which has studied four successfully organized crime prevention programs within the City of St. Paul and has concluded that the Block Club program which uses tools that actively involve residents , owners, renters, business owners and the police in a partnership to improve the livability of a neighborhood, with a paid organizer, proved to be the most successful method of impacting neighborhood crimes they have discovered to date . This Organizer will monitor and respond to residential burglary occurrences in the two grid target area, working in conjunction with the St . Paul Police Crime Prevention Unit, the Burglary Unit, and the Crime Prevention Coordinator. Crime Alert flyers will be distributed to all blocks who experience a residential burglary. These flyers will encourage : - any information that may have been connected to the burglary be turned into the St . Paul Burqlary Unit. - that this residential area form a block club. 3 Monthly, the Block Club Organizer will submit a crime prevention article to the Ramsey Hill Neighborhood Newspaper . Articles will feature current neighborhood crime occurrences and specific topics of neighborhood interest : - Housing Court - Public Hearing Process - Operation Identification - Highlights on Block Club Benefits - Health Department ' s versus Fire Departments Function in Relation to Property Conditions - House Watch, Home Security Audit, Neighborhood Assistance Officer ' s and Police Reserve ' s Program, etc . The Block Organizer will work with the Captain of the N.W. Police Team to keep the neighborhood current on the issues the police are experiencing as a priority and will work specifically with the Crime prevention Unit of the Police Department on strategies to reduce : auto theft , burglary, etc . The Block Club Organizer ' s main responsibility will be to organize 40 residential block clubs in a twelve month period. A minimum of two meetings , staff facilitated, will be held for each club ( 80 total ) . In addition, Block Club Organizer will provide to each club: 1 . A residential block map which lists all property owners and residents , their property address and their phone numbers for each of the 4- block clubs . This map will be distributed to all block club members and one copy will be shared with the N.W. Police Team, to help facilitate proactive policing. 2 . Operation identification numbers , tracking inventory sheet and operation identification decals to each block club member. 3 . Information and assistance for purchasing crime prevention signs under the City crime prevention sign policy. 4 . Current information about residential burglary occurrences in the neighborhood. 5 . Information of locks , lights and general crime prevention tactics . 4 ��lD-//(��' � , 6 . Assistance in educating and developing strategies within block clubs to: a . Identify property owners of rental property, communicate in writing, by phone, and in block club meetings with these owners . b. Network police, public health, the fire department , respective city council members , the Ramsey Hill Association, and the District Planning Council to assist and support block clubs in problem resolution. Program Objectives : 1 . Form 40 residential block clubs in one year, educate clubs in crime prevention strategies and identify each club with the N.W. Police Team as a neighborhood ally. 2 . Develop strategies with each block club: to utilize the City services most effectively, to identify and work with property owners , residents and business owners which serves to increase the livability of the neighborhood. 3 . Provide information and referrals to those not yet participating in the crime prevention program through news articles and Crime Alert Flyers . 4 . 80 crime prevention signs posted in the target area . Program Goals : 1 . To reduce the tolerance for criminal activity, thereby reducing the opportunity for crime and increasing the risk of participating in criminal activity. 2 . To improve the livability of the neighborhood, as reported by block club participants , property owners and business owners . 3 . To develop a sense of ownership in residents and owners of the target areas .

Woitas __ S�mmunity Org.anizQ�22/90 S g ture of Individual Typed Name Titl.e Date Co eting APplication ♦ NEED FOR BLOCR CLUB ORGANIZATION As discussion has arisen over topics of concern at District 10 meetings, repeatedly, community residents have indicated a strong interest in the organization of block clubs as a positive way to develop a networking of neighbors to develop a stronger community base and disseminate information about resources apppropriately. Interest has arisen, specifically around crime prevention. In the past, several informal crime watch block clubs had been formed, but their on-going existence has been difficult to maintain without formal support and resources. District 10 completed a prioritized Long Range Plan with the community and the formation of block clubs was ranked as a top priority. This has been included in the 1990 goals and objectives of the District 10 Community Council. The impact of growing numbers of individuals attending the State Fair, and the on-going participation in Como Park itself has resulted in an encroachment into the residential neighborhood, bringing with it crime, litter, traffic, parking, noise and occasional property damage. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED BLOCKWORKER PROGRAM Our intent is to form 'COMO NEIGHBORHOOD CONNECTIONS" a block worker program unique in that it will be designed to be multi-focused to address such issues as crime prevention, senior concerns, safety, recycling, as well as issues particular to specific blocks. The concept of this program is to encourage neighbors to exchange information and to offer help to each other on an informal basis. With a blockworker program, residents develop a sense of shared community within a neighborhood, trust is built among neighbors as well as improved communications on a grassroots level. FIRST YEAR GOALS AND OBJECTIVES The goals of this project are; empowerment of residents to gain greater control over their lives, increased resident involvement in District 10 and other activities within the community, encourage and identify new leadership, encouragement of resident interaction with various city departments, participation in informational crime prevention meetings as well as formation of block clubs and establishment of matching fund grant program for crime prevention hardware and signs to residents and businesses. During the first year, 30 block clubs will be formed 10 in each of the subdistricts. Captains will be identified and trained. Such start up costs as development of resource and information materials, publicity and training will be absorbed in the original funding. On-going funds will be solicited inpart from foundation grants, resident and business contributions, fundraisers and in-kind contributions. SUPERVISION AND MANAGD�IENT The treasurer of the District 10 Community Council will be responsible for the fiscal record keeping of the project. The program will operate under the supervisory framework of an Advisory Council, under the general direction of the Community Council. This Advisory Coucil will help develop long range goals and set direction for the program. They will alo make regular reports to the District Council and evaluate the program on an ongoing basis. Staff will be supervised by the Community Organizer. The staff position funded by this grant will be a 1/2 time position with limited benefits. The person will be employed by the District Council. STAFF RESPONSIBILITIES Train blockworkers and captains for crime watch, operation ID and related crime prevention efforts. Form 30 block clubs in the community as a first year goal. Establish a matching-fund grant program for residents to purchase crime prevention hardware. Expand the use of security hardware and signs in area businesses. Develop a newsletter to network community. Do community outreach, Report to Advisory Council and assist in development of program and future planning. Identify other issues and needs that should be incorporated into the program. ��/�D � FIRST YEAR BUDGET BLOCKWORKER PROGRAM FOR DISTRICT 10 PERSONNEL Salary $8.00 % 20 hours % 52 weeks $8,400 FICA 700 Umemployment Fund 100 Workers Compensation 200 Travel and Staff Training 700 Clerical Support 600 PERSONNEL TOTAL 10 700 $10,700 PROGRAM MATERIAL Publicity $1,400 Postage 500 Information & Resource Material 700 Printing 1,000 Telephone 700 Supplies 500 Crime Prevention Hardware 2,500 Crime Watch Signs 1 500 PROGRAM MATERIAL TOTAL 8,800 8.800 INRIND NEIGHBORHOOD Office Space (Lyngblomsten Senior Center @ $300 month % 12 months) $3,600 Residents share of 1:1 match on prevention hardware 2,500 Supervisor/Admininstrative support (@ $12 per hour X 3 hr a week X 52 weeks) 1,872 Office equipment purchase (desk, chair, file cabinets, telephone, table) 1,500 Volunteer match hours (30 block captains @ $10 per hour % 2 hr month X 12 months) 7,200 Volunteer match hours (resident participant @ $10 hr R 2 hr R 10 per club (300 hours) 6,000 TOTAL NEIGHBORHOOD CONTRIBUTIONS 22 672 TOTAL CRIME BLOCKWORKER PROGRAM 42,172 TOTAL NEIGHBORHOOD CONTRIBUTIONS 22,672 PERSONNEL & PROGRAM TOTAL 19,500 TOTAL AMOUNT OF GRANT REQUEST 19 500 � � ------ _ - J _ .� `I� _ _ ----__ _ _----_ --- --- �� __�. �.IJ t__�.�.J � +I_�__.f 1��.1 L}j{/Q--� U `` ' .

Signature of Individual Typed Name Title Date aompleting Applicat on `/%��/�� , Susan Marschalk Community Organizer 5/23/90 1� COMMiTNITY BUILDING INITIATIVE � . The Hamline Midway Coalition is requesting funding for a Community Building Initiative from July, 1990 through June, 1991 . The purpose of this initiative is to encoura�e . neighborhood stabilization by bridging relationships between the Hamline Midway Coalition and other community organizati.ons including youth groups, senior citizen associations, fraternal organization� as well as the churches and schools in the neighborhaod. It is also the intent of this intiative to build a stronger connection with community residents and business people and to ensure that all activities in which the Coalition participates, will be inclusive of every community member. In 1982, the Coalition participated in .block club organizing around crime prevention. Although those block clubs have not been maintained from the perspective of ongoing meetings, the Hamline Midway Coalition has kept those contacts informed of Coalition activities. We are interested in approaching neighborhood stabilization from an alternative approach to traditional crime prevention organizing. This is a diverse urban community, however renters, youth and people of color are seldom involved in neighborhood events or decision making. The Coalition is committed to building relationships with eve.ry population represented in the Hamline Midway community and an actual strategy is needed to encourage. broad participation. Part of that strategy is to re=establish a block club network that is based on building relation- ships between neighbors, to encourage problem solving at the community level, speci- fically that community members work with each other to find solutions, whether it is a problem property or a barking dog. Although enforcement can be of assistance in temporarily solving an issue, usually the problem will surface again. We are interested in defining the systemic problem, and assisting neighborhood residents in working toward a solution. Rather than discussing a "neighbor" at a block club gathering that people consider is creating a problem, we would like to see peuple include that person in the discussion in order to arrive at a satisfactory solution. The expectation is that Board members, alung with staff will particpate in a door knocking campaign throughout the community tu identify the interests of neighborhood residents, develup an understanding of neighborhood values, and identify potential leaders who would havP the skill and commitment in organizing their own block. Those "neighbors" will be contacted again for a one on one interview. Staff will work with those individuals to organize a block meeting or party. The staff and Board members will also contact leaders of existing organizations including booster clubs, community groups, senior citizen and youth associations, churches and schools. In Jun� the Hamline Midway Coalition will be working with West Side Citizens Organization on a �ommunity building training. The two organizations have hired an organizer from Chicago to facilitate a community meeting between each community based group and representatives from other neighborhood organizations. This is a beginning for the Hamline Midway Coalition in building relationships with other organized constituencies. With the information that is gathered, staff will begin setting up town meetings on a smaller scale which will address a particular issue or event of a specific geographic ar� of the neighborhood. The goal of these meetings will be to connecr neighbors with each other, encourage ongoing communication and establish relationships. Up until last year the Hamline Midway Coalition published a newsletter, but because of 'funding shortages it was necessary to end this service. Recently, we published • the Neighborhood News again, however it is now being distributed throughout the entire neighborhood, rather than just block clubs. A portion of this grant would be used toward continuing the publication of the newsletter. • The Hamline Midway Coalition is actively working to concentrate on the capacities of the Hamline Midway neighborhood, not the deficiencies. Racism is an important piece in preventing urban communities from stabilizing. It is the goal of the Hamline Midway Coalition to encourage everyone to take part in their neighborhood, to use their voice and to establish relationships with their neighbors. . �c�a i��o � Proposed Budget for Co�unity Building Initiative EXPENSES Personnel Associate Organizer (20 hours) $10,400.00 FICA 795.60 Benefits 1 ,000.00 Administration 2,000.00 Total $14,195.60 Printing Newsletter 3,500.00 Advertising 250.00 Flyers/information 200.00 Total 3,950.00 Supplies postage 500.00 paper supplies 250.00 Copying supplies 100.00 Training staff and community 1,004.40 Total $20�000.00 INCOHE The Saint Paul Foundation $10,000.00 McKnight Neighborhood Self Help Initiatives Program 15,000.00 Dayton Rudson Foundation 10,000.00 Biglow Foundation 7,500.00 Volunteer time @ $10 per hour 5,000.00 500 hours Total 47.500.00 � �°� 5��9� �' . . � Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program Use this format for both the j Planning Division pre-application and final Dept. of Planning and Economic Development application. ��a�� 25 West Fourth Street � St. Paul, Minnesota 55102 (612) 228-3371 FINAL APPLICATION DUE: MAY 25, 1990 APPLICATION Please type all responses Group or Organization Submitting Application St. Anthony Park Association 2g2_�gg4 Name: Telephone: Address: �g0 Cromwell � St. Paul , MN 55114 Contact Person: Roberta Megard Daytime Phone: 292-�884 Project Description: (Limit this description to one page! ) (On a separate sheet, provide a brief description of the goals, objectives, activities and specific steps that will be taken; any existing crime prevention activities now underway; existing need and how the project addresses that need; and a statement of how your organization will manage and evaluate this project; and staff responsibility.

Roberta Meaard Communitv Orqanizer Signature of Indiv al T ed Name Title Date Completing Application � PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The St . Anthony Park Assoication ( SAPA) and the St. Anthony Park Community Council (SAPCC ) are applying for a Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant with THE GOAL OF inaintaining and enhansing a safe urban community in the St . Anthony Park district of St. Paul through its block worker network and related programs . THE OBJECTIVES of the grant project are to reduce crime and to increase the involvement of residents of St. Anthony Park through the following ACTIVITIES : 1 . maintain the network of 100 block workers and area coordinators to support the CrimeWatch program, recruiting new individuals as needed ( list attached) ; 2 . hold at least one meeting in each of the ten areas of St . Anthony Park to train block workers on CrimeWatch , Operation I .D. , and other crime prevention activities ; 3 . establish a minimum of ten new active CrimeWatch areas ; 4 . increase the use of security hardware ( locks , window security, alarms ) in homes through a 1 : 1 grant matching program; 5 . update and expand the data-bank of all residents , as a resource for CrimeWatch , including a talent bank; 6 . produce and distribute four issues of the newsletter, THE NETWORKER ( sample issue attached) , to all 2 , 500 households ; 7 . increase the number of block clubs by 20%; 8 . welcome new residents with a "new neighbor packet" , including CrimeWatch information; 9 . expand outreach efforts through projects such as "adopt a park" , house and garden tours , environmental projects , and better utilization of community resources . St . Anthony Park wrestles with the problems of crime, deteriorated housing, loss of community identity, industrialization, and inadequate human services . In the past, St. Anthony Park residents have prevented many problems from becoming serious by addressing them early. The network of 100 block workers and the programs related to that network are intrigal to these prevention/ intervention efforts . Presently, the community is divided into ten areas . Area Coordinators oversee the efforts of the block workers in each area. Approximately 45 block clubs ( list attached) meet to cooperate on project, solve mutual problems (crime prevention, watching one another' s homes , alley lighting , cooperative alley plowing, babysitting co-op, landscaping and for social purposes ) . Communication between the SAPA and SAPCC and the community is maintained through a quarterly newsletter, THE NETWORKER and liaison with each Board. Funds to provide staff to maintain the network and these activities , and to cover related expenses , are necessary in order that the program will continue. An effort to up-date CrimeWatch and other crime prevention activities was recently initiated in St. Anthony Park via a community-wide meeting on March 22 , 1990. Since then block workers in two of the areas have met with an officer of the St. Paul Police Department to discuss crime prevention strategies . During 1989 a policy on the use of the block worker network in emergencies (attached) was worked out cooperatively with the SAPA, SAPCC and the Police Department. An half-time ( 20 hrs/week ) Outreach Coordinator (Job Description attached) will be hired by SAPA and SAPCC to administer this crime prevention program. The Outreach Coordinator will work under the supervision of the SAPCC Community Organizer, work out of the Community Council Office, and report monthly to the SAPA Board and the Human Service Committee of the SAPCC. Evaluation will be by tracking progress on each of the grant objectives. (This grant project will be carried out in cooperation with a parallel project being proposed by the St. Anthony Park Merchant' s Association for which the Outreach Coordinator will work an additional 10 hours/week. ) . �qo-i�6� BliDGET � ST .

May 1.990 Treasurer's Report , St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association • Rev. 5/24/90 /�y0��/�OD ' PROJECT DESCRIPTION �� Project Name: North St. Anthony Park Commercial Crime Watch Project . Goals: To develop a prototype crime watch program similar to security programs at regional malls, but suitable for implementation among small independent businesses in neighborhood commercial area Objectives: 1 ) to improve comnunication among businesses regarding security issues 2) to improve security measures in commercial neighborhood 3) to deter crime and provide swift response to criminal activity Activities 1 ) Establish telephone caller network to link neighborhood businesses an teps: 2) Oevelop looseleaf security manual for use by business emmployees 3) Develop and disseminate for public display and business use various window decals, counter signs, placards and other signage to publicize program and participation of businesses in program 4) Coordinate police and Commercial Crime Watch activities 5) Improve security measures in commercial district through physical improvements and coordinated volunteer efforts. Existin Crime revention c ivities: The St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association formed a Security Committee to investigate establishment of a Mall Watch-type program. The Co�hmittee has met only twice and has not developed any program as yet due to the time demands on its membership. Paid staff is needed to develop and implement such a program. The Association has neither staff nor offices . ( Existing Need: The North St. Anthony Park commercial area has suffered in recent years from periodic episodes involving robbery, burglary, car theft, assaults, shoplifting, passing of bad and forged checks, vandalism and other crime. Although crime rates are not as severe in North St. Anthony Park as in other areas, these crimes have more shock value than in other areas and contribute to feelings of insecurity. Much more could be done to improve security and deter crime. Project Management: The Association will contract with the St. Anthony Park Community Council for the part-time services of a paid project coordinator. The coordinator will be an employee of the Comnunity Council and will also be responsible for implementing the Council 's residential crime watch project. The Association will develop a job description covering the coordinator's involvement with this project. The Coordinator would report to and be responsible to the Association through its Security Committee and the President of the Association. The Community Council would serve as fiscal agent for the project. As part of the project, the Coordinator will be responsible for project implementation and documenting compliance with project goals. The Coordinator will prepare initial draft of project report at end of project period. The Coordinator's report shall be reviewed by the. Association's Security Committee and submitted to the Association for approval and submission to the Cortwnunity Council and the appropriate city officials. One of the goals of the project is to develop prototypical information which can be used by other neighborhood commercial areas to work together to improve security and deter crime. All information and materials developed through this project would be made available to other neighborhood commercial areas seeking similar programs. Joint coordination of the residential and commercial crime watch projects will enhance crime prevention efforts in the entire northwestern corner of the City. In subsequent years, the Association hopes to expand the project to include additional businesses in North St. Anthony Park and South St. Anthony Park.

Anne Steuer Allev Li�htint� ,5, 11/9n gnature ndividual Typed Name Title Date Completing Application Project Coordinator � ALLEY LIGHTING and CRIME in ST. PAUL Objective: Investigate whether alley lighting reduces crime. Proposal: Esrimate the associarion between the amount of alley lighting and the average crime rate by carrying out a designed statistical study. In addition,explore communiry attitudes and perceptions about alley lighting. Background: lfiere is widespread agreement that well lighted streets, alleys and buildings discourage crime, yet many of the alleys in St. Paul are poorly lit. Why don't people put in alley lights? There are probably many reasons. Some possible ones are: • Residents are not aware that NSP will install and maintain alley lights for a monthly charge of approximately$7. • Residents don't know the extent to which the presence of alley lighting reduces crime so they are unable to make an informed decision about whether to have alley lights. • There is often little incentive to bear the enrire cost of provid.ing alley lighting that benefits neighbors since it is often very difficult to get neighbors to contribute to the cost of an alley light. • NSP requires a 3 year payment commitment for each alley light that is installed and maintained. Renters may not be willing to make this commitinent. • Low income residents may not be able to afford alley lighting,particularly if they must bear the entire cost of a unit Why a Designed Study? Suppose, instead of a designed study, data are collected on levels of alley lighring and reported crimes and used to estimate the association between them. Such a study would be called an "observarional" study as opposed to a "designed" study. Any conclusions made on the basis of such an observational study may be very misleading. For example,residents of higher crime areas are more likely to have alley lighting than residents of low crime areas so when you look at the association between levels of lighting and reported crime you see a positive relationship between lighting and crime--higher levels of alley lighting are associated with higher crime rates! Carefully designed staristical studies are necessary to establish cause and effect relarionships and control for the effects of other factors not directly related to the question of interest. Outline of the Study: • Detemune study area (see attached map)and duration of study (3 years). • Deternune high,moderate and low crime areas within the study area. • Decide on sample size and sample unit (blocks or groups of blocks). • Decide on levels of alley lighting. • Randomly allocate levels of alley lighting to sample units. • Decide on types of reported crimes to include in study. , (r,c�o,,��a C� � Alley Lighting in St. Paul Proposal Budget Budget Alley lights for sampled areas � 13,S 0 0 150 @ $90 per light per year Research and analysis computer use �3,000 Mail survey printing �2 0 0 Mail survey postage $3 0 0 Administration, Office and Office Supplies $3,0 0 0 Total �20,000 In-Kind Contribution Background research $3,0 0 0 1 volunteer statistician 300 hours @ $10 per hour Data Analysis and disseminarion of findings $3,0 0 0 1 volunteer statisrician 300 hours @ $10 per hour Data Collection $4,8 0 0 10 volunteers 4 hours per month x 12 months @ $10 per hour Monitoring study � 12,0 0 0 10 volunteers 10 hours per month (6 hours per month for meetings)x 12 months @ $10 per hour Survey-- constructing survey $4 0 0 2 volunteers 40 hours @ $10 per hour Survey-- stuffing envelope and mailing $ 10 0 5 volunteers 10 hours @ $10 per hour Survey--coding responses on computer $3 0 0 1 volunteer 30 hours @ $10 per hour Survey-- analysis and dissemination of findings �1,2 0 0 2 volunteers 120 hours @ $10 per hour Total -- 2,000 hours �2 0,0 0 0 a � t .,.. : $ P � i . �, � � � a w►r N , � � ,� .�,��•�� , , w ws uw • � r � � • . , � _,/ p �P" w ,�.••.• ..� � . �� • E . . . � " r � . � e► V � k n` �--� •� j �' .

The consortium is an entity vith by-lavs. The consortium vill �oin a neMly revived coalition of district councile in the area of the SouthMest Police Team. The goal of the coalition •ill be to have greater interaction Mith the police in the team. There �ill be a tMO •ay communication eetabliehed vhereby the police rill notify those Mho have been victimized by crimes ebout the local block club ectivity and the diBtrict councils Mill communicate information received from police to the block clubs on suepicious activity and trends. Lexington-Hewline Neighborhood An ective block orgenizing effort has been 1n place in Lex-Ham for over fifteen years. The program is coordineted by three volunteere end the Crime Prevention Committee. The 1990 goal of the Block Organizing Committee is to have every block in the Lex-Ham neighborhood organized vith a block coordinator Mith specific monthly and Meekly meeting dates for residents on the block. The block coordinator is reeponeible for distributing action alert flyere, coordinating the phone tree and coordinating �eetings rith the police end community council. Lexington-Namline Community Council is a member vf the St. Paul Community Anti-Crack Coalition and the Crime Data Task Force. The Lex-Ham neighborhood ie divided geographically into four pockete. There are quarterly pocket meetings at residents homes to diecuss crime related and other issues that effect all blocke in the pocket. Snelling He�line N�ighborhood About 20 block clubs heve been organized in the paet. Some of these are active and �ost are not. The block leaders are good contact people even •hen the block clubs are not real active. Some issues are not crime related. Me have found that active block clube need vider �cope of activity end interest to meintain viability. A community council goal for 1990 is to orgenize five neM block clubs end strengthen five of those already operating. There are about 35 blocks in the neighborhood. A technique initiated this yPar at Snelling-Hamline vhich seems to be helpful is to invite r�sidente in adjoining blocks to meeting/parties to let the� get an idea of the proceas. The community council is a �ember of the Cri�e Data Task Force to help identify the data needs of district councils Mith the police department.

Signature of Individual Typed Name Title Date � Comp eting Applica i t�'c%�-QJ �(� /�, Katherine Tarnowski Community Organizer 5-24-90 ��J The District 14 Community Council is requesting funding to further develop and implement our Block Leaders Organizing for Community Concerns (BLOCC) effort. Our BLOCC Program is ' not designed to be just a crime prevention program. It is designed to build the capacity of the Piacalester-Groveland area through the development of neighborliness� neighborhood � leadership and effective communication. It is our belief that the stimulation of neighborhood capacity building results in a safer, more stable communities. � We want to work to develop a network of BLOCC leaders on each and every one of the more than S00 block faces in the Macalester-Groveland neighborhood. This effort will be an opportunity for neighbors to get together to deal with common concerns and interests. These BLOCC Clubs will be an informal association of residents of a given block working together within a well-structured network of other blocks. This network will be used to help residents get to know one another, to identify issues of interest or concern, and to learn to work together. The BLOCC Program also will serve to stimulate communication among blocks and between the blocks and the community council. It is intended that the BLOCC Program will first build a sense of mutual concern among neighbors for helping each other and that this concern and interest will lead to joint efforts amono others to watch out for each other's property, block-wide premises checks and expansion of Operation ID, installation of private alley lighting, and group purchase of locks and security systems. Our crime prevention efforts will include a Neighborhood Crime Prevention Fair which will draw public attention to crime prevention measures. Our crime prevention program will be developed through joint efforts with the Southwest Area Team Police and district councils participating in the new Southwest Area Crime Prevention Coalition. While crime prevention is the first goal of the District 14 BLOCC Program� another long term goal of the District 14 Community Council is to support and develop activities that will maintain and uporade Macalester-Groveland's aging housing stock. Most of our housing stock is in relatively good condition; however, 2/3 of the housing stock is over 50 years old with many homes dating back to the 1920's. P1any of these older homes are in need of major work. Because of the high cost of housing, high property taxes and the high energy costs associated with old buildings, many District 14 residents are "house poor" with little disposable income for major home repairs. The council would like to work to develop mechanisms for group contracting for home repairs, maintenance, and energy improvements in order to preserve and improve an a�ing housing stock. ��'e see this kind of effort as critical to the preservation of District 14`s aging housing stock. The District 14 Community Council, with funding by the Afinneapolis Foundation's Neighborhood Self I�elp Initiatives Program (��SNSHIP), created its BLOCC Program in 1984. Over three years the council successfully identified and recruited BLOCC Leaders, trained BIACC Leaders, and assisted with organizing approximately 300 block faces. The network was computerized so that information could be disseminated readily through a regularly updated and continually expanding roster of BLOCC Leaders. Unfortunately� over the past two years the District 14 BLOCC Program has been without resources or staff. I�'e are seeking funds to re-activate this program. The future of the central cities in metro areas is the unsolved urban problem of our nation. Despite the strengths of our many excellent center city nei;hborhoods, these neighborhoods are plagued by uncertainty about the future - uncertainty which seriously threatens neighborhood stability. This uncertainty is caused by a slow decline in housing quality, increased rental occupancy, fear of crime and absence of a feeling of personal and family security� absence of neighborhood pride and a sense of community for a majority of area residents, absence of governmental attention to areas that are not already blighted, and an absence of economical do-it-yourself efforts. Operating by themselves� residents have no ability to influence the stability of their neighborhood. The District 14 Community Council intends to create, through BLOCC, an opportunity for residents to form interests groups directed toward solving problems with their own resources. BIACC provides an outlet for creative problem solving that will develop leadership and preserve and improve the community. BLOCC provides residents with the opportunities and mechanism to maintain the quality of their neighborhoods and take measures aimed at preventing the deterioration that can victimize central city neighborhoods. , �` �'//� � � Proposed Budget = District 14 Community Council BLOCC Program July 1, 1990 - June 30, 1991 Crime Prev.

This person ��rill iaork approximately 20 hours a week. The ELOCC Coordinator will be an employee of the District 14 Community Council. (S)he will work under the supervision of the community council's Comr.,unity Organizer/Executive Director and w�ith the council's BLOCC Committee. The BLOCC Committee has not met for almost two years and will need to be re-created. The BLOC(; Coordinator's first tasic �oill be to contact the people designated as BLOCC Leader on approximately 300 block faces. (This involves considerably fewer than 300 people as many blocks are organized by two block faces with one ELOCC Leader designated for both.) IJ}�ile we have called and aslced for help on one issue or another by at least 5G of these BLOCC Leaders in the past year, no one has contacteC them for two years, jtie need to identify who is willing to serve in ttiis capacity, determine how active the block has been and whether or not community council assistance is needed. BLOCC Clubs that have become inactive will need to be re-activated. t�;e will want to recruit BLOCC Leaders and or�anize blocks that have never been orCanized. The IiLOCC Coordinator will be responsible for updating the roster of BLOCC Leaders so that information on hot grids etc can easily be disseminated. (S)he also will be responsible for BLOCC Leader training, compiling statistics and evaluation of the probram. The BLOCC Coordinator, witii the council 's Community Organizer, provide technical assistance 4�ith the organizing of BLOCC i•ieetinbs organized around non-crime prevention issues, such as traffic, land use, schools etc. Zhe BLOCC Coordinator will assist the BLOCC Committee in putting on a �Ieighborhood Crime Prevention Fair which will draw community attention to the need for and success associated with crime prevention efforts. This Fair �aill be held in the spring of 1991 at t�lacalester College. It will be a "home show of crime prevention" including exhibits by security companies and crime related service agencies. Separate funding is being sought for this activity. �Je �aill draw on the experience of our 19E3 sponsorship of a similar Crime Prevention Fair. It is our intent to hire an intern from one of the area colleges to help with this activity. I�ousing maintenance efforts will not occur until the BLOCC Club network has been updated and may have to be delayed until 1991-92.

G ~ Scott Bunin President 5 Z D Si ture of Individual Typed Name Titla at� Completing Application � Highland Area Community Council M Crime Prevention Grant Application May 25, 1990 I. Goal The goal of the Highland Area Community Council (HACC) in pursuing a cri.me prevention grant is to maintain the stable area of Highland Park as a safe community for all ages. II. Proaram We intend to use this grant money to hire a crime prevention outreach worker whose �ob it will be to implement and monitor our two ob�ectives: 1) to educate residents throughout the Highland area on crime prevention through a series of forums; and 2) to establish a network of block clubs in a target area. These forums, which shall be developed and publicized with the assistance of Community Education, will address separate topics of interest in our community which shall include, but not be limited to: 1) Personal Safety for Seniors. Outreach work for the forum will be done with organizations that work with seniors--the Jewish Canmunity Center, AARP, Highland Block Nurse Program. 2) PTA/PTO meeting to discuss how to establish safe houses for children, and how to alert and disseminate safety and crime information concerning children. This will involve working with the McGruff program in Highland's 8 elementary schools. 3) Commercial/Business security forum with the Highland Business Association, loaking to develop sharing of crime concerns on an ongoing basis. �) General inventory of a home's present security system (including basic locks and safety practices) and steps to improvement. 5) Self Defense Class in conjunction with Community Education. 6) Optional. In the event of obtaining only partial program flanding, forums will be offered frequently on organizing block clubs and training block leaders to take the initiative in their neighborhoods to develop and maintain crime watch clubs and alley light maintenance. We've identified a target area of approximately 65 blocks (see map) in which we hope to establish 30-40 block clubs during the grant cycle. The outreach worker shall establish these through: 1 ) Working with HACC members to identify, recruit and train leaders in crime prevention block clubs and alley light management. This shall additionally strengthen the District Council through development of leaders and through its network's potential use in other outreach efforts. 2) Write and send crime prevention newsletter to affected areas as, initially, means of education and outreach, then as update and information as network develops. 3) Aet as a resource for the Sibley Manor Crime Prevention/Resident Council. (Sibley Manor has 550 units - many are low-income units.) . � c�-lo�//�d �� III. Need This pro�ect is needed because the approximately 25,000 residents of Highland are affected by the very same wide spectrum of crimes found throughout the City, yet no, Crime Prevention programs currently exist in this district. Information on neighborhood crimes are not currently disseminated to others who may be affected. Crimes are not reported in the newspaper or covered in any newspaper. The population of Highland includes the largest elderly population in Minnesota, whose changing personal safety needs must be addressed and whose perception of neighborhood safety may not reflect current realities. There has also been an influx of young families, particularly in the project target area, whose children face a different variety of crimes, and whose recently purchased older homes may need upgraded security. Our proposed newsletter, forums, school outreach, and block clubs all address these concerns. In addition, this project will also help all groups become more involved in the cornrnunity, which in itself helps in erime prevention. Further, we wish to work on a coordinated basis in crime prevention with neighborhood District Councils, but will not be able to do so without fl�nding. IV. Manaaement/Evaluation The outreach worker will submit a monthly written report directly to th� District Council Executive Camnittee which shall be responsible for monitoring the worker's activities. Each forum will be evalua�ted by participating speakers and by attendees. The block club canponent will be evaluated on the basis of number of block clubs established during the grant cycle. Y. Outreach Worker Res�onsibilitv The outreach worker shall be responsible for developing and arranging all forums. He or she shall also be responsible for recruiting, training, and monitoring block workers and for developing a ne�wsletter and publicizing information pertinent to the program. The outreach worker shall also work with District 15 to develop a Southwest Area Crime Prevention Coalition with neighboring Districts 13, 14 and 16 for the purpose of sharing information on a coordinated basis. The worker shall also coordinate efforts with crime prevention officials of the Police, Fire and Planning Departments. YI. Post Grant Manaa�ent The Community Organizer shall be responsible for seeing that the block grant program continues by maintaining lists of contact persons, updating such lists when necessary, and occasionally contacting low-activity block clubs to ensure that they stay operational. She shall also maintain coordination efforts with Districts 13, 14 and 16. A.

It has 550 apart— �ents...55 buildings with 10 units in each. The population is currently estimated to be 1,400 persons, the bulk of vhom are lo� to �oderate inco�e. It is a diverse community, called home by people of many different races and ; cultures (see attached ■ap for location). Sibley management has been very welcoming to, and cooperative vith, human service agencies �ho are nov using space donated by management to serve Sibley residents. In recent years, crime has been #1 on the list of things Sibley residents �ould like to see addressed in their neigh— borhood. At a public ■eeting a few months ago, residents pointed to the following crime—related concerns: auto theft; vandalism; loitering; excessive noise; drug use/selling; speeding; very poor outdoor lighting; the 55 build— ings in Sibley (each has two entrances) have no locks on entrance doors. In the past four to five years, Sibley has developed a staggering 45� annual turnover rate in tenants. Because of this, residents say it is very difficult to knov vho your neighbors are, and thus, ■uch suspicious behavior goes unreported. Since August of 1989, Sibley has seen: a rape; a sexual assault; a murder; a severe beating; and a stabbing. In addition to the public meeting, other forms of "citizen participation" have taken place. They include: tvo "focus groups" in which a cross section of residents met to discuss their "vision" for Sibley as a neighborhood (both groups ranked crime—related concerns first on a list of priorities; and a survey residents are taking door—to—door to gauge their neighbors' interests (so far over 120 people have expressed an interest in implementing a crime watch). � In deciding to start a cri�e vatch, residents set forth one pri�ary objective..."To combat feelings of fear, isolation, and vulnerability and move toward individual/neighborhood empowerment by: getting to knov more of their neighbors; organizing on their own behalf regarding safety and crime—related concerns; and participation in crime—prevention strategies." Residents began meeting twice veekly in late March, once per veek to design and establish a Resident Council, and once per reek to design and establish the first per�anent cos�ittee of the Council, a Sibley Cri�e Yatch. It has become apparent that starting a Watch in an area the size of Sibley �ill be very challenging indeed, and that resi— dents rrill need to �ork in partnership �ith other groups to make this successful. Numerous contacts have been, and will continue to be, made with the following: St. Paul Team Police (SW Sector); Neighborhood Assistance Officers (NAO); area fire department personnel, and others engaged in offering emergency services to Sibley; Sibley •anage�ent; area businesses; community service agencies; Highland Area Community Council and others. Residents will develop crime pre— vention strategies in cooperation with Sara Cwayna and Officer Corrine Manthei and others involved in St. Paul's nev "neighborhood crime prevention" initiatives. Additional consultation will be provided by Connie Oppelt, who coordin� ates successful crime watches for three St. Paul apartment complexes. for the summer, residents will operate an ad hoc (temporary) Crime Yatch and �ork hard to interest others in Sibley's first Resident Council and Cri�e Yatch elec— tions to be held in October. The Crime Watch Committee shall be made up of three types/levels of positions: Cri�e Yatch Coordinator; Block Captains; •nd Building Representatives. Attached job descriptions give details of responsibilities for these persons. The designated Program Manager rill be Tim LaFleur of the West Seventh Community Center. Tim is a licensed social r+orker who has �orked in many St. Paul neighborhoods for over 12 years. He has seen clients from Sibley for the past three and a half years and �ill soon (by July 1) be working full time in Sibley. Tfie snccess of this project will be judged on the basis of �hat is happening by June 30, 1991. At that time, Crime liatch �eetings rill be occurring on a regular basis, citizen patrols vill be occurring nightly; other Crime Vlatch personnel will be in contact a minimum of tvice per �eek, a minimum of 27 persons (CW Coordinator, six Block Captains and 20 Building Representatives will be actively engaged in crime prevention efforts. The size of the Sibley neighbor— hood� and the scope and number of activities of the proposed Crime Watch, are such that we've also applied to NPP for funds for a couple of items, chief among them, bad17 needed outdoor lights. The private match, neighborhood contribu— tions, and volunteer labor listed in our line item budget on page 2, do not duplicate those listed in our NPP applica— tion, but are another part of the same program. One of the nine activities listed in the NPP applications, is a Crime Yatch Citizen Patrol...residents using walkie—talkies and a base station to patrol the Sibley neighDorhood nightly. TYO of the primary activities listed on page 2 of this proposal are: establishing Operation I.D. in Sibley (using engraving instruments to place numbers on possessions, which are then registered vith police); and establishing a Crime Yatch "Phone Tree" �a system enabling residents to quickly gather neighbors as witnesses to crimes in process). This application requests funds for anly one crime �atch�but a crucial one. We ask for funds to purchase and install locks on all building entrances in Sibley �55 bldgs = 110 locks). Pattirtg locks on these doors will make the many long hours volunteers will be putting into this project, dramatically more effective. Please honor our request for funds.

Personal style and over- all disposition will be critical. Is the person too "mild mannered" or too "aggressive"? Will he/she be able to make quick decisions and act promptly and responsibly, especially vhen the immediate safety of a resident(s) is involved? Hov will this person represent the Crimevatch to neighborhood partners such as area businesses, manage- ment, community service agencies, police, fire and paramedic personnel, the media and the general public? The Crime Watch Coordinator... °VJill be empo�ered by the Resident Council to make policy regarding crime watch methods, procedures and activities. °Will be accountable directly to the Resident Council President.

This vould include fire Department personnel and paramedics. The Coordinator will inform residents regarding these activities, through the MANOR MATTERS neWSletter and a summary presented at monthly Resident Council meetings. Building numbers may be referred to, but the apartment number and name of affected residents vill not. ��/�� V � Page 4 °Will keep appropriate records of all Sibley Crime Watch activities, and of Police, Fire and Paramedic response times. The Coordinator vill call meetings with those service providers, to discuss response � times and to work on mutually beneficial relationships, as he/she deems necessary...and as such service providers will agree to. °Will be responsible for, with assistance from the six (6) Block Captains, organizing efforts to recruit residents for Crime Watch. °Will schedule "Citizen Patrols" with information provided by Block Captains. °Will maintain Crime Watch Budget and make authorized purchases. BLOCK CAPTAINS One Block Captain will be selected to represent each of the six (6) Sections of Sibley, by the voters (residents) in that particular Section. The primary role/responsibility of Block Captains, will be that of "gatekeeper", that is, to make certain that information gets to the appropriate party(ies). Block Captains will seek to enlist the support of one "Building Representative" for every building in their Section. This vill put them each in frequent contact with 7-10 Building Representatives who will be under their direct super— vision. Block Captains shall immediately contact the Crime Watch Coordinator vith any crime related information, activities or concerns that come to their attention...through either their Building Reps or through any resident(s) living in their particular Section of Sibley.

You were curious as to why we do not, at present, have locks on entrance doors and better lighting throughout the complex. We cannot deny that Sibley Manor Apartments, Inc. is a profit-making corpora- tion. We also understand that lights and locks are an important contribution to neighborhood security. We genuinely care about the welfare and general well-being of our tenants , and many of them would be happy to attest to this. At the same time, we find ourselves in a difficult position. For the past few years, we have put nearly $100,000 annually back into Sibley. We recently changed 52 unusable garage doors (at a cost of $15,000) , and spent $63,000 replacing building entrance doors. We recently spent over $65,000 in repairing roof drains and roofs, and making a large number of other miscellan- eous repairs. Other improvements are planned. If we had the dollars on hand right now to put in lights and locks, such as those suggested by Mr. LaFleur, we'd likely do it. If we are to do this on our own, it may easily be a few years. For many years, the greater share of our tenants have been low-income, and we've no immediate intention of changing that. As you' ll see on the attached ad, our rental prices are lower than most anywhere in the metro area! We're confident that it would be extremely hard for someone to find homes as nice, as well-kept, and as affordable as our apartments. For us to gather the dollars to make major improvements of the scale Mr. LaFleur is suggesting, we would inevit�bly have to raise rents. We're attempting to do all we can to make necessary improvements to our buildings without raising rents substantially. There has been no rent increase in one and a half years, and there is none planned for the immediate future. While we do not have money on hand to completely pay for lights and locks, we've made it clear we're willing to sit down with residents and discuss spending dollars we do have, on other things residents see as important. After meeting with Mr. LaFleur earlier today, we commit ourselves to providing the following: MEMBER OF nwNFn av — �iRi FY MANOR. INC.

The Commission carefully considered each of the proposals and the comments from a grants advisory group established in the adopted grant guidelines. The advisory group had representatives from the Police Department, Community Services, PED, and the St. Paul Companies. I have reviewed the Planning Commission's report and support their funding recommendations. In addition, I am recommending full funding for the West Side Citizens Organization proposal on . cross-cultural education and the integration of cultural diversity into West Side organizations. This innovative proposal addresses the root cause of many crime problems in the City. WSCO's experience with the project may serve later as a model for other efforts in St. Paul. The $17,800 request can be funded from the $30, 000 that the Planning Commission has recommended rolling over to the next funding cycle, therefore the Planning Commission's funding recommendations for other projects will remain unaffected. You will recall that, as the guidelines were being developed, I suggested a review before a second cycle of crime prevention grants. In light of the Commission's comments on the proposals and the process, I feel that it is even more critical that the Council take a close look at the program and funding procedures. Neighborhood-based crime prevention qrants remain a good idea, but changes may be necessary before the next funding cycle. (La�o 48 Priate�on Recycled Paper u _ . �-//�� Council President William Wilson and Members of the City Council June 26, 1990 Page Two At the very least, we must make a commitment to a review process that includes: 1) a longer application and review period to allow more complete development of proposals, 2) inclusion of several neighborhood representatives on the grants advisory group, 3) interviews of project applicants by review committees, and 4) a longer format application form that allows neighborhoods several pages to describe projects in more detail. With these improvements in the process, I feel that the next cycle of Neighborhood Crime Prevention grants will result in continuing successful projects in the City.

We commend the Council for establishing the program; it is obvious that there are needs and there are community organizations ready to address them with organized citizen effort. Proposals came from a variety of neighborhood groups and represented several innovative means to address crime prevention. The quality of the top seven proposals is high and we believe they will have substantial beneficial impact. On the whole, the Commission was disappointed with the quality of the proposals and funding recommendations beyond these seven are difficult. Too many of the proposals simply did not provide basic information required by the guidelines. As a consequence, the recommended funding falls short of the total amount available for the program, and we are in the position of recommending no funding for some areas where we know the need is critical. We believe, however, that it is better to withhold some of the funds and prepare for a new round of applications than to commit funds without a program description that provides a good basis for a contract. This is the first round for the program, and we have all acknowledged that the process would be somewhat experimental. The need for several improvements is clear. First, as you know, in the interest of time, the pre-application process was eliminated. With a pre-application process, technical assistance can be given where it is needed and important issues that need to be resolved in a final application can be addressed. That opportunity to provide some early comment and assistance in the interest of good proposals was sorely missed in this process. 90-//�� President Bill Wilson and Members of the City Council June 11, 1990 Page Two Second, also because of the time factor, the Commission's review was based entirely on the written proposals submitted. There was not time for a committee or advisory group interview with each applicant, a step which often helps considerably to clarify applicants' intentions. This is a deficiency which can be remedied simply another time around. Third, there are groups and individuals with good experience in block organizing for crime prevention, and steps should be taken to encourage sharing of expertise. With some workshops or other provision for training, the quality of proposals could certainly be raised. These possibilities for improvement of the procedure should be taken into account in planning for a new program cycle. The Commission also wishes to suggest that the Council give some consideration to whether or not a competitive grant process is the best approach for distributing this amount of money for this purpose. We are concerned about the factor of relative need for crime prevention activity and the difficulty of taking this into account when evaluating proposals of widely differing quality. An alternative to be considered would be a formula allocation by district. Funds available per district could be equal, or crime levels and population could be factored into a formula. Awards could be based on match raised. Non-district-council groups should still be encouraged to participate, and this might mean some level of competition within districts. Proposal review and comment could still be sought from appropriate city departments and others with expertise, and innovative approaches could still be encouraged. An evaluation process like the current one might apply only to those cases where there was competition at the district level. The Commission will be happy to provide whatever assistance we can in implementation and further development of the Neighborhood Crime Prevention Program.

The funding recommendations on Attachment A are ranked and grouped according to Planning Commission ratings of the proposals. There were clear divisions in the ranking between the three groups of proposals. The first group includes those proposals that fully merit funding. With one exception, the Commission recommends funding at the applicant's requested level. The Davton's Bluff Proposal has been reduced to $19,280 (from $20,000) after removing $720 of ineligible phone expenses from the grant budget. The Commission recommends that the $100 per block organizing "bonus" be eliminated, and that the $2000 for that purpose be used to supplement the proposed salary directly. The Commission notes that the Thomas Dale Block Club Proposal has set block watch organizing goals but has not requested additional staff. The Commission feels that some funds, such as $1520 for t-shirts, might better be applied toward staff time. Some reallocation within the $14,360 budget might be considered in implementation and a final budget. The second group of proposals includes grant requests that the Commission found to be somewhat less competitive. The Riverview Nei�hborhood Crime Watch, St. Anthony Park Community Council, District 14, and Summit Hill Association proposals seek to fund relatively well-established block club organizations. Not all can be fully funded with available funds. The Commission recommends $10,000 grants to each group. This is an approximate 50$ reduction from initial requests, except for Summit Hill Association's $10,000 request. The Commission recommends $9000 funding for the St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association for only the commercial area organizing component of the proposal. The Commission does not recommend funding the deeply subsidized crime prevention hardware. The Commission sees the important need for commercial area crime prevention organizing and activity in the Payne and Arcade areas, as proposed by the East Side Neighborhood Development Co. It does not, however, feel that reliance on business band radio is warranted or advisable. The Commission notes that the mall watch newspaper article included with the grant application refers to phone networks for communication. The Commission encourages ESNDC to submit another proposal in subsequent grant cycles. The Commission is sympathetic to the need for residential area block club organizing in the Summit-Universitv neighborhood. The grant proposal, however, was inadequate, particularly in its lack of detail in the source and contributions of the required match and its rather modest goal to organize 16 block clubs. ��-//� The Commission supports the on-going crime prevention and problem properties work of the Riverview Nei�hborhood Crime Watch and has recommended $10,000 in funding. This funding should be contingent on a substantially revised budget and description of goals that shows exactly what the grant will accomplish and how it will be matched by the neighborhood. It is not sufficient to merely include crime prevention grant funds into a general budget. Funds should not be allocated prior to submission of an acceptable budget. (NOTE: Final budgets and contracts will have to be developed with all grant recipients. Most applicants have submitted budgets thar_ will require little modification.) The Planning Commission feels that the final group of proposals should not, at least in their present form, be funded. The Planning Commission is disappointed in the quality of most of the proposals -- even many of those in the middle group. In part this is attributable to the new program, a short application time line, and the lack of required pre-applications. Overall, the applicants showed too little regard for the specific criteria and requested information in the guidelines, including stated neighborhood and/or target area needs, a means of program evaluation, detailed neighborhood match information, and working relationships with city departments. The Commission recommends a schedule for future cycles that allows for pre-application review, city-neighborhood ccoperation in grant writing, and an interview session with applicants, before funding recommendations are made. �-//�� ATTACHMENT C June 4, 1990 Planning Commission comments on all proposals 1. District 1 Community Council Purpose: Apartment management/tenant organizing Request: $ 8,200 (General Fund) Comments: Coordination with the White Bear-Ruth small area plan and with the East Team Police and police crime prevention is commendable. Geographical targeting is appropriate to the need that exists in the area. Recruiting managers will require a lot of work. If anything, the proposed budget seems low for the stated goals. There is a lot of confusion over the cost of signs throughout the proposals. $200 for signs and other hardware in this proposal probably won't go very far. 2. District 2 Community Council: Apartment Proposal Purpose: Subsidy for crime security hardware for apartments Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The need for apartment management is clear in the neighborhood. Organization should precede other steps, including the hardware purchases requested in the proposal. There are questions about exactly what types of hardware is being considered and how effective it would be given the typical apartment doors and windows. The impact is questionable. The proposed budget is far too general. There are no established target areas or buildings. 3. West Seventh Community Center: Sibley Manor Apartments Purpose: Apartment building locks for 55 buildings at Sibley Manor Request: $ 14,825 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal is coordinated with a concurrent NPP proposal for street lights and a CRP grant for providing human services to residents. Turnover and crime statistics show clear problems. The proposal is well developed and specific. Exterior locks can be effective. The main concern is that the contribution from the for-profit apartment management could be higher. While they are contributing to the other grants as well, their hardware match is only $2500 (or 14$ of the discounted cost of the locks) . [The citizen patrol aspect was not discussed by the advisory group. It does not involve any grant funds, and the $700 match is not essential to the proposal. J 4. East Side Neighborhood Development Co. Purpose: Commercial area communication network Request: $20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The general idea is good and could serve as a model for other commercial areas in the city. The need is clear. The problem is the �v-11� dependence on business band radios when telephones could work as well, at a lower initial cost and lower maintenance costs. If the idea is to be replicated elsewhere in the city, radios will not always be available. Even the attached article on mall watch refers to a telephone network. This proposal also included the highest hourly salary estimate. (Inconsistent salaries are an issue throughout the proposals) . 5. St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association Purpose: Commercial area communication coordination; hardware Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The real extent of the need is questionable in comparison to other commercial areas in St. Paul, but the idea is a worthy one, as noted above for the ESNDC proposal. The hardware expenditures with deep subsidies seem unwarranted. ($11,077 in grant money for hardware would be matched with only $3000 in merchant contributions) . The advisory group and Planning Commission recommend only the organizing aspects of the proposal, and notes that $2800 for overhead may be high for that part of the program. Some budget revision will be required for implementation. 6. Aurora/Saint Anthonv Area Block Club Purpose: Beat police patrol for portion of University Avenue Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal requests two beat patrol officers for a 16 week period. The $40,000 total budget for that may seem high but is within reason. On-duty police would be more useful than private security officers since the area is primarily public property. The need is there, but too focused a patrol may simply move the problems a few blocks away. There is some mixed feeling that this is not the best expenditure of funds: it is expensive, but can be effective. The budget, particularly concerning neighborhood match and commitment of funds, will have to be clarified. If beat patrols are a good idea, it may be more appropriate as a police department policy and budget item. 7. St. Paul Community Anti-Crack Coalition Purpose: Alley lights and statistical analysis Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The advisory group sees real problems with the possibilities of meaningful statistical analysis of alley light effectiveness in deterring crime. The neighborhood factors are too complex for meaningful analysis. While the police department supports alley and yard lighting, this proposal is not specific about the target area and need for lights. The Commission could support a proposal to install alley lights if a targeted area need is demonstrated, but it sees little need for a statistical study. �o-/!�� 8. West Side Citizens Or�anization Purpose: Multi-cultural awareness Request: $ 17,800 (CDBG) Comments: The proposal does not provide enough information, particularly for a topic as highly charged as cultural awareness. There is too little information on who will conduct seminars, on program content, on citizen participation, or how any evaluation will take place. The proposal and any such project will need far more coordination to be effective. 9. District 2 Community Council Request: $ 14,360 (CDBG) Comments: A block watch effort has been started and should be encouraged to continue. One-hundred blocks may be too ambitious, particularly for a grant of less than $20,000. There is no targeting within the district boundaries. The proposal says that organizing will be throughout the district, yet it notes two police grids in particular need. Need was not adequately presented in the proposal. CRP grant in the area is supportive, though there is some confusion over which CRP grant addresses the neighborhood and which is focused on Roosevelt homes. Overall, a better use of neighborhood resources could have been proposed. 10. Riverview Neighborhood Crime Watch (CDBG) Request: $ 20,000 Comments: The neighborhood has a well thought through approach to crime watch and problem properties monitoring. This is reflected in the proposal, though it is unclear exactly what the crime watch funds will go toward. The proposal is, in effect, their entire work program. Crime prevention grants are simply another revenue source, and the direct match is hard to decipher. Still, the proposal could have been rearranged to fit the guidelines. There is also some question as to who reports to who. Given these problems, there is some reluctance to fund the proposal. However, the Commission does feel that the grant can be well spent. For a final contract, specific program goals would need to be emphasized, and unsecured match funds would have to be verified. 11. Dayton's Bluff . Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) [$19,280J Comments: This is well developed proposal in an area that needs block organizing efforts. Additional neighborhood resources are noted, and coordinator activities are spelled out. The Commission is uncomfortable with the $100/block organizing bonus, and recommends that the $2000 be added to the base salary and 30 blocks be established as a goal. Phone expenses must be deleted. �o-i�� 12. District 6 Planning Council Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This area needs crime prevention activity. The proposal is a very good effort. The community council may need more city staff help than some other organizations. The activity is well focused. $4000 for office supplies seems high, but much of that may be printing and postage. Some attention to youth work would help. The park service project should not count as a match, but it is not needed to meet the 1:1 requirement. The proposal shows a good variety of neighborhood match and participation by more than the neighborhood organization alone. The small target area should lead to some organizing success. 13. Thomas Dale Block Club Association Request: $ 14,360 (CDBG) Comments: A 100 block goal with $14,000 grant seems overly ambitious. The need is there, and the neighborhood has been doing some good work in related activities in the recent past. There is some confusion on crime watch sign costs that needs to be clarified. Note that there is no request for additional staff or salary. (Who will be doing the work?) The budget could be amended to allow more staff work by reallocating some resources. Some targeting could improve the effort. 14. Summit-University Planning Council Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) [$19,000] Comments: The need for crime watch activity in the neighborhood is clear to the Commission, but the proposal provides little detail. The request is for a full-time organizer (at a low $6/hour) to organize only 16 blocks. The goals should be higher. There is a serious problem with inadequate detail on the matching services and labor. It is not possible to assess the effectiveness of neighborhood resources or volunteer effort. Phone expenses of $1000 are ineligible. The proposal lacks any targeting within district boundaries. (See the Ramsey Hill Association proposal for a targeted area within the Summit-University area) . 15. Ramsey Hill Association Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal suggests a strong focus on crime watch activity alone, but without a broader block-club scope seen in most other proposals. This proposal may also overlap in geographical area with the planning council's proposal. There is a need in the area. Their 40-block goal is a fair portion of their two targeted police grids. There is a considerable amount of in-kind cash contributions on the part of the organization. �d-�l�6 16. District 10 Community Council Request: $ 19,500 (General Fund) [$18,800] Comments: Despite the stated priority focus on crime prevention, the extent of need in the area is not documented. Goals are 10 block clubs in each sub-district. Focus is on crime watch with broader block activities. The proposal does not reflect the full use of resources seen in some other proposals. The subsidized crime prevention hardware should be focused on households in need, and $700 in phone expenses is ineligible. The district wide effort may be too scattered. Working relationships with city departments are not developed. 17. Hamline Midway Coalition Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The proposal is not well thought out. Boiler-plate crime prevention activity does not explain what will actually be done with the grant in goals or evaluation. There is no evidence of city involvement, though some joint work with WSCO is mentioned. The match is unclear: are those funds secured? Are they geared to crime prevention? 18. St. Anthon� Park Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This grant is to maintain a well-established block club program. While expansion goals are limited, the neighborhood has 100 active block clubs, and community newsletter, and established crime watch communications. The grant proposes to be carried out in conjunction with the St. Anthony Park commercial area grant. The group lists multiple neighborhood resources, and the outreach worker job description makes goals quite clear. As with the District 10 proposal, the subsidized hardware should be for those households most in need. 19 District 13 Consortium Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The proposed activities would help pull District 13 sub-areas together into a joint crime watch coordinating program. Sub-district goals are targeted to each specific area, based on existing activity. Some targeting within sub-districts should be explored. The entire match is "soft" volunteer time -- no hard match -- though the volunteer hours do seem to reflect clearly articulated goals. Staff responsibilities and hours need to be clarified. A more detailed budget will be required before implementation. 9�,�� 20. District 14 Communitv Council Request: $ 19,642 (General Fund) Comments: This is a maintenance grant for an established program (as District 12 above) . Activities beyond basic crime watch are commendable and probably help the success of on-going efforts. The goal to add 50 block faces seems appropriate to staff level. Goals that go beyond basic crime prevention may help block clubs remain viable. 21. Hi�hland Area Communitv Council Request: $ 16,250 (General Fund) Comments: This proposal is actually two separate activities: block organizing in two target areas and community-wide forums. The advisory group did not find the forums to be a good idea and questions how effective general meetings are in crime prevention. The organizing aspects seemed ambitious for the staff time. A general lack of focus was noted. 22. Summit Hill Association Request: $ 10,000 (General Fund) Comments: This is a basic proposal for an on-going block club program in need of organizational support. Goals are specific, and working relationships clear. Note that the request is more modest than many. The new goals seem appropriate to that budget. Neighborhood contributions from outside the organization should be explored. �>�I/�� city of saint paul pianning commission resolution file number 90-55 �}e June 8, 1990 � NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM First Cycle Funding Recommendations WHEREAS, The Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program guidelines state that Saint Paul Planning Commission will evaluate grant applications and transmit funding recommendations to the Mayor and City Council; WHEREAS, the Department of Planning and Economic Development has received twenty-two applications for the first program cycle; and WHEREAS, the Housing and Neighborhoods Committee of the Planning Commission has carefully reviewed each of the proposals submitted, has considered the comments of a grants advisory group, and has made recommendations to the Commission concerning the proposals submitted; NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission recommends the funding priorities identified in Attachment A, and makes project and program comments in Attachments B and C; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission recommends that $5,000 be retained for small grants and that the balance of unallocated funds be rolled-over for a Fall, 1990, second cycle application program; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission recommendation be transmitted to the Mayor and City Council for their consideration and action. moved by HIRTE seconded by TREI HEL• in favor 1- against 3 �d -/1�a w Q NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM GUIDELINES Adopted by the Saint Paul Planning Commission on April 27, 1990 Adopted, with amendments, by the Saint Paul City Council on May 8, 1990 y��-�i�o GITY OF SAINT PAUL ��ii'i iin OFFICE OF THE CITY COUNCIL --��=�;��.� DAVE THUNE Counci7member MEMORANDUM r To: Councilmembers , , I� ,�U` From: Dave Thu e � ` "�,� Regarding: Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grants Unfortunately, I will be out of town during Tuesday's Council meeting when the Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grants are being voting on.

CTTY HALL SEVENTH FLOOR SAINT PAUL,MINNESOTA 55102 612/298-5679 S a�46 Printed on Recycled Paper 9D-//�� NEIGHBORNOOD CRIME PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM GUIDELINES May 8, 1990 I. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Purpose: The Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program is designed to help neighborhood non-profit groups develop programs that reduce crime. Activities may include, but are not limited to, organizing and expanding block club networks for the purpose of neighborhood stabilization. While the primary focus of the program is crime prevention, this is a flexible, multi-use program that recognizes that additional neighborhood activities enhance crime prevention efforts. Supportive activities are allowed under the program. Authorization. Term: The grant program is funded by a 1990 City budget allocation of $200,000. These guidelines are to be effective for this first-year pilot program. At the end of one year, pending future budget allocations, these guidelines will be reviewed and amended as necessary. II. FUNDING Grant Limits: Program grants are available for up to $20,000 each. ' There is no minimum grant limit, (but see small grants section following) . Grants will be awarded on a competitive basis. In order to build and expand crime prevention activity throughout the city, no more than $40,000 will be awarded within any single community planning district. In some instances, the Planning Commission may recommend changes in a proposed budget. If any funds remain unallocated, a second grant cycle will be held in the fall of 1990. Funds must be spent by June 31, 1991. Funding will be on a reimbursement basis due to CDBG funding source requirements. To assist individual block-clubs and organizations needing small grants, $5,000 will be set aside, and an additional $5,000 will be put in contingency. These grants are intended for postage, supplies, crimewatch signs, and other purposes directly related to neighborhood crime prevention. The maximum amount of any small grant shall be $500. No match will be required for these grants. Staff in the Department of Planning and Economic Development will work with a crime prevention Grant Advisory Committee (including representatives from the Police Department, Department of Community Services, and a neighborhood representative) to determine the small grant awards. A separate application form for small grants is enclosed. Applications are due on May 25, 1990. Any unallocated funds will revert to the larger grant program to be awarded this grant cycle. 1 . �v--//�a Elig,ible Expenses include direct expenses related to establishing and maintaining crime prevention activity (such as staff salary and ' benefits) , education, communications (supplies, production costs, delivery costs, mileage reimbursement, postage) , and subsidies for the purchase of crime prevention hardware (fixed asset improvements to homes and businesses) . Ineligible Expenses include vehicles, equipment purchases, office space rent, phone, food, drinks, and entertainment. (See neighborhood contributions section below) . Eligible Areas include all seventeen community planning districts. Eligible Anplicants include district councils, residential block club organizations, and other neighborhood-based non-profit organizations. Neighborhood Contributions: Each proposal must be matched with neighborhood contributions at a minimum 1:1 ratio. Contributions must be directly related to the proposed activities and must be contributed during the period following initial application through the duration of the grant. Contributions may include direct financial resources such as supplies and foundation grants, equipment, and in-kind services including volunteer labor. The value of volunteer labor shall be $10 per hour. Time spent in meetings directly and exclusively related to the implementation of neighborhood crime prevention activities may be counted as volunteer labor, up to a maximum of 50$ of the total neighborhood match. Time spent in general meetings of the organization shall not be counted. All volunteer labor, including time in meetings, must be documented in writing. III. APPLICATION Process: Pre-applications are encouraged but not required. Pre-applications will be accepted until May 11. The pre-application gives staff time to clarify and/or correct any issues before final applications are submitted. Final applications are due May 25, 1990. No late applications will be accepted. " Contents: Applications must contain the following: 1. A brief description of the project, including goals, objectives, activities. 2. A budget including how program funds will be spent and an estimate of neighborhood contributions including volunteer labor. 3. If the proposal includes salary for staff, a statement of staff responsibility, including to whom the staff reports. 4. The name of the organization that will implement the program. 5. A map of the proposed pro,ject target area. 6. A time schedule for the project. 7. A description of how the program will be evaluated. Application forms for both parts of this grant program are attached. Final applications must be received no later than 4:00 p.m. on May 25, 1990. 2 9�-/1�0 IV. SELECTION Selection Process: The selection process is competitive. The number of projects funded will depend on the quality of the proposals and available resources. Applicant groups should contact their appropriate district council and attempt to coordinate proposals within a district. District councils will be asked to submit comments to PED regarding the proposals and how they meet district goals and objectives. The Planning Commission, working with a Grants Advisory Committee from the Police Department, the Department of Community Services, the Department of Planning and Economic Development, neighborhoods, and other appropriate agencies, will review and rate the applications and identify those proposals which it thinks should be funded. The Planning Commission recommendations will be sent to the Mayor and City Council for final approval. It is the intent that The City Council will make final funding decisions by June 30. Small grant applications will be reviewed for compliance with the program purpose and selection criteria. In the event that small grant requests exceed the initial $5,000 allocated in the program, the Grants Advisory Committee will recommend to the City Council the projects to be funded, not to exceed a total of $10,000. Applications are due on May 25, 1990. Selection Criteria: Selection will be based on overall program goals and anticipated accomplishments. The program is looking for: - how projects relate to stated neighborhood needs - effective use of grant funds with existing neighborhood resources - the extent to which volunteer labor is "leveraged" - broad-based citizen participation - District Council comment and support - working relationships with appropriate city departments, including Police and Community Services - target area need for proposed activities V. PROJECT RESPONSIBILITY Contract: For approved projects, the final application and budget will serve as the basis for a contract between the City of St. Paul and the applicant. PED will develop contracts appropriate to the projects, funding source requirements, and liability insurance requirements. Status Reports: Summary status reports will be due January 15, 1991, and within thirty days of the completion of the project. Evaluation Forum: Grant recipients will be expected to attend a forum at or near the end of the project cycle in order to share experiences. This first cycle is an experimental program. Assessment of funded projects is important to continued success of the program. 3 9�-/��D .

The project will address issues,including crime prevention and community building,targeting the over 1,000 units of multi-family residences in the area of District 1,north of Interstate 94,bounded roughly by White Bear Avenue,Third Street and McKnight Road. Objectives: The project will have two main objectives: to create an active apartment managers association and to form block clubs in the apartrnent complexes on a floor-by-floor basis (approximately 6-12 units per dub). The purpose of the apartment manager association will be to develop strategies to attract tenants who pay rent on time,do not destroy property and do not engage in criminal activity . Training to deal with problem tenants will be included. The block clubs' aim will be to reduce the opportunity for crime and to increase the social cohesion of the apartrnent dwellers by empowering residents to become involved with their neighbors, by teaching crime prevention strategies, and by encouraging tenant initiative and responsibility. Need :This project will be undertaken in conjunction with the development of a Small Area Plan for the White Bear-Ruth neighborhood, begun in May, 1990 by the St. Paul Planning Commission. The plan was initiated at the request of the District 1 Community Council in response to concern about the density of residential development in the area. The task force named to develop this plan will serve as a resource for this project. (Small area plan documents attached). This project will direcdy affect the needs of this neighborhood as identified in the District Council request for a small area plan. Crime statistics support the need for crime prevention activities in this area (grid 119). Grid 119 had 1815 police calls from january 1989 to March 1990, more than double the number in the grid immediately to the west (grid 118-805 calls). Grid 119 had 361 total offenses in 1989 and ranked 21 from the top out of 189 grids within the city. Coordination:This project will work in cooperation with the East Team Police and Sara Cwayna of the Police Department's Crime Prevention Pilot Program. Cwayna will develop block clubs in the single family blocks and will share information and strategies with this project. Both projects will work in tandem to develop strategies to target livability issues. Other liasions will be formed with the Fire Deparhnent and Building Inspectors. Merrick Community Services has agreed to participate in addressing human service needs. Others participating will be the Conway/Van Dyke Block Club and the Concerned Neighbors Assoaation whose members presently work on livability issues.The manager of the Hazelwood Apartments has agreed to participate and to encourage the involvment of other managers. District 1 News will be one method used to publicize the project. SEaff: A staff person will be hired to manage this program. Staff will initiate the manager's association,organize block clubs within the apariment buildings,monitor crime data,respond to requests,publicize the program,coordinate and rnmmunicate with the East Team Police and the Crime Prevention coordinator and other appropriate city departments. Staff will report to the District 1 Community Organizer. The District 1 Community Council will have oversight responsibility. Evaluation will be based upon objective criteria,including the creation of the apartment managers' association, the number of complexes represented,the number of block dubs formed,the number of police calls,and crime statistics. Subjective criteria will be developed based upon the Small Area Plan recommendations. � 9d-//� d District 1 Budget Line Item Request: Personnel 15 hours per week/48 weeks $6,800.00 Communication postage,office supplies, copying, mileage reimbursement $1,200.00 Neighborhood Watch Signs,other hardware $200.00 Total Request $ 8,200.00 Neighborhood Match Direct Resources: $4,160.00 District 1 Community Council: Personnel-includes community organizer time in July for program development, initial coordination and outreach, staff support in subsequent months for supervision,fund administration, coordination and secretarial service $2,660.00 District 1 News: computer time, District 1 News space,editor support for communication, publicity and flyer production $1,500.00 ��d; $9,960.00 Volunteer labor ($10.00 per hour): Building Manager's Association 3 hours/ month- 12 members- 11 meetings $3,960.00 Block Clubs 15 clubs-8 members each- 5 hours each $6,000.00 Total Match $14,120.00 � � � � • � ��. �� A1 �'�� _ �� 1�11 �lil' ■11 111�11111111■ . - ��'�'. 1111'111��11111111�11 �q � �°- I,�I�jw11111111111! 1 � ..•..

On behalf of the Planning Commission, I would like to ask that the District Council appoint representatives to a small area plan task force for this planning process. As you know, the District Council and neighborhood residents have been concerned about the density of residential development in this area. The study will focus on appropriate land uses for remaining underdeveloped properties that are zoned for multi-family use. A preliminary list of other issues that may benefit from analysis as part of this small area plan include: 1) vacant, single-family zoned residential land along Fremont Ave. ; 2) development of new and maintenance of existing commercial development; 3) stormwater drainage problems; 4) the need for sidewalks; and 5) upkeep of residential properties. The Land Use Committee of the Planning Commission has recommended the attached resolution for approval by the full Commission at its next meeting on April 13th. The resolution (which I anticipate will be approved as presented) appoints Gladys Morton of the Planning Commission to the small area plan task force and asks that the District Council appoint the remaining members to include balanced representation from the following interest groups: 1) single-family homeowners; 2) owners of property that may be rezoned; 3) apartment owners; 4) apartment renters; 5) area business owners; 6) neighborhood elementary schools; and 7) the District 1 Council. I have assigned Donna Drummond from the Planning Division staff to provide assistance to the small area plan task force. She has done some preliminary work and would like to begin working with the task force in late April or early May. I envision that the task force will need to meet 3 or 4 times in May and June to develop its recommendations for consideration by the Planning Commission. �i�-//�� Mr. Jay Fonkert March 30, 1990 Page Two Please call me (228-3380) if you have any questions or concerns you would like to discuss further at this point.

ATTACHMENT 1 , Pro_iect description Tl�e high rate of crime and the perception of lax security in large apartment complexes are a direct cause of community instability, high vacancy rates and rapid turnover of tenants. By improving the security of both units and build- ings, we F�ope to reduce rates or burgldry and crimes committed and encourdged by tl►e entry of unauthorized persons to buildings. We hope then to encourage occupancy by stable lony-term residents. This project I�as two primary goals: Reduce crime in multi-family buildings. Increase occupancy rate and increase length-of-stay of tenants. These wiil be accomplished by conductiny building security audits and providing matching funds to apartment owners on a one-to-one basis for the instatlation of devices to increase security and tendnt accountability for entry. Security audits will be �efined as a review by the police or qualified building professionals. There is no "certificatic,r�" for this category of wurk. We will concentrate improvements to two or three complexes depending on size and costs of improvements. Eligible improvements for the proyram will be: Locking devices, Window screens for lower level apar-tments, Security doors, Call-box systems. Apartment complexes will be selected on the basis of the following. The District 2 Community Council will rr�ake the final selection. --Willingness of owners to make a commitment to impr-ove overall quality of building in addition to making security in�provements. Building must meet all immediate healtt� and safety requirements. --Willingness of owner to commit to meet minimum tenant screening and selection criteria as agreed to by managers' association. --Likelihood of amount of impr-ovements which can be afforded under this program having maximum effect in deterring c►-ime. Estimate of "most bang for the buck" to be done by Police Department or other outside qualified security auditor. --Partfcipation of manager/owner in neighborhood efforts including crime watch organizxation and rrwnagers essociation. --Eligibility for and participation in CRP project. At least two seperate complexes will be assisted with program funds. Orga�izing of tenant crime-watcf� and providing fur uther physical improvements to buildings wilt be accomplished alungside this program. These efforts will be coordinated through District 2 and funded with otlier sources. The 67 hours of staff time mentioned in the budget would be done by a member of the District 2 staff and supervised through established procedures.

The program will be coordinated with two existing and one potential (requested under this same funding source) programs. The police Department's crime prevention office on the East Side (Sara Cwayna) will assist with start-up or support of existing block watch efforts. The East Area Resident Unity Project (CRP funded through D2CC) is working in low-income apartment areas and will both coordinate staff effort and assist in identifying specific resident security needs if buildings selected are CRP eligible. Under the existing D2CC block contact program, residents will be encouraged to participate in community activities. Funds are currently being sought to continue this program. In addition, the properties selected for this program will be participants in ongoing work of the apartment managers group which has been operating on the East Side for 4 years. �i� -/l�� , / V�( � � � V � !�� y y� ` � � � � � W � O",�' � � � �, o � �.1 W J p = � . i�ao�MrcuR ..!�—=W� m o � �°_ � 3 � > � � � � � � s � ;; C��ODOC�p' -- - - -- -- �_ � . , � �N 51��7 C lifOR �n D�� .�C �f --:;;;. tDll�p ��J (]o��,'�-�,...,.:� rrtosi ��Or-----, HATDE�.f �� fR051 ��K[ �� L_J Nort ;�� AKE S� �� 1�IW1TS;r Nttlta[ST �� ,� uv�� ` OC�� c�oo°o°°� M[enASr.A ; •- �r"'--7/U CdIRSE � �� .. �0000�� , ��OOC7O�—� • F��SS ARl INGION�.

This project will expand District 2's fledyliny Block Contact network by 100. This network is a major comrr�unity-1,uilding effort which will result in long term crime przventiun and crime reductian. Tl�e proJect will also provide specific training to Block Contacts in crime prevention techniques and enable tl7r.se v��1 ur�teer•s to d i ssem t nate cr i me prevent i on i nfc,rmat i on and organ i ze neigl�bors in crime prevention efforts. Police grids with trie highest crime rates (e.g. , grids 38 and 57) particularly need to be rec►-uited for crime prevention programs. The Block Contact network is being established to enable the District 2 Community Council to address a series of threats to tt�e stability of our community, including crime and tt�e perception thereof. In single family areas, Block Contacts are on a block or block face; in apartment areas, they are in a building or apartment complex. District 2 is a very large community; with a population of 25,000 it is significantly targer than most City planning districts. Our present neighbor- hood communicatians through cortmunity newspapers, fliers, and meetings are acceptable wh�en the area is facing major crises or controversial decisions. but ar•e not as effective as a long-term means of community-building. Dist- rict 2 recently began the Block Contact program and has developed some aspects of a communications network through lawn sign volunteers, block clubs, and liaison work with the East Side Apartment Manager-s, Roosevelt Resident Coun- cil , churches, PTAs and other groups in the community. In addition, in some areas there are also very informal social networks of residents. We would like to identify new constituencies and groups currently under- served and underrepresented by District 2 (such as apartment residents and minarity persons) , and use the Block Contact network to encourage tt�ese people into the process. The Resident Unity Project, for which this grant will provide edditional support, will provide a maJor means of organizing within apartment areas and within the Soutl�east Asian populatfon. We would like to increase the effectiveness of our twu-way Block Contact network by developing and sending a newsletter on a regular, at least montt�ly basis to block contacts and to develop and provide training opportunities for them to becane effective at various dspects of corr�r�unity-building, including crimewatch techniques. This project addresses stated neighborl►ood needs. The emphasis of this proposal is to serve as mucF� of that cortimunity as possible rather than concen- trating �our efforts on creating 10 or 20 block clubs. Many of the block contacts servf�g as liaison volunteers in this program will work through other efforts such as that operated by tt�e Police Department to organize their blocks more specifically for crime prevention. The . project builds on efforts we have begun and is coordinated with our �recently-awarded East Area Resident Unity CRP program and with the Police Department's block club organization program. This pro3ect leverages voluntee� labor extensively, the labor of indivi- duai block cantect volunteers llnktng their nefghbors with ccxnmuntty activi- ties including crime-fighting efforts. It will be operated and is supported by the District 2 Community Council to provide for broad-based citizen parti- cipation and volur►teerism. Staff invoivEd wauld be employed by the District 2 Community Council end supervised pursuant to established procedures. Staff involved through the CRP program will serve according to tt�e guideli�es cited in the exececuted CRP contract. The program is monitored and evaluated by the District's Communica- tions Committee, which will coordinate with the Resident Unity Project Cortmit- tee and which is responsible to tt�e elected Board of Directors. � � �d- //�� Phone: 731-6842 � �11s�' ll �11�� 11 � ��l°111°ll��ll 11 � ��'SJ 1� �L.�1111e 2169 STILLWATER AVENUE ST.

A block club is a group neighbors who live within a one or two block area of one another and meet together regularly to share concerns and interests. The "NBC Network" will facilitate neighborhood communication concerning issues such as crime, recycle, environment, neighborhood promotion, and schools. Participants will also have an opportunity to plan recreational , social and cultural group activities. The Dayton 's Bluff Community Council recently conducted a survey of the 24 block clubs that were organized by Dave Saumweber in 1988. Of those 24, only 10 remain marginally active. Various responses included "No time without Dave. . .don't know how without Dave. . .we' re too scared of each other. . .too much turn over. . .an isolated block club doesn't do any good" . These responses demonstrate a need for person-to-person contact in order to facilitate the block club process. Goal 1 . To hire a part-time coordinator. � Objective: a) Provide continued staff support to the 10 active block clubs previously established by Dave Saumweber of Neighborhood Housing Services in 1986-1988. b) To type, duplicate meeting notices, minutes and correspondence required by block clubs. c ) To assist block clubs in locating materials, meeting space� and other resources needed to conduct block business and activities. . d ) To assist in organizing a commercial crime club. Goal 2. To stress self-sufficiency strategies which will enable residents to assume greater responsibility for the future of their individual block club. Objective: a) To provide all block clubs with the "Take Back Your Block" handbook on organizational structure. b) to develop and conduct all-block workshops on areas relevant to group self-sufficiency. Goal 3. To establish an advisory board which would provide direction to block clubs. Objective a) To hold full advisory board meetings quarterly. . �Io-l/!�o ., Dayton's Bluff NBC Network Attachment 1B Activities: A. Canvassing block. B. Defining common interests of residents. C.

PROJECT OPPORTUNITY: But a model exists in the Mall Watch Program (which is described in the attached article) for organizing businesses in shopping malls into telephone networks to combat shoplifting, bad checks, and other disruptive and criminal behavior. With business-band radio providing dedicated, two-way, group communication capabilities, the technology now exists for applying this model to neighborhood commercial strips. And with anticipated purchases of new radio equipment in the Saint Paul Fire and Police Departments, a source of donated radios exists with which to initiate a pilot program on a neighborhood commercial strip in great need of increased security. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Saint Paul Police Department intends to replace 15 or 20 of its hand-held portable radio units and purchase new equipment from Motorola. Motorola has offered to give the Police Department a trade-in on these units (which it would not normally do) , to recrystal them, and to donate them to the East Side Neighborhood Development Company, which would then obtain a Business Band Radio license from the FCC. ESNDC would then hire a coordinator to establish the Business Security Network Program (or BISNET, for short) along the lines of the Mall Watch program. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: To reduce the economic loss to the business community from crime, to significantly improve the safety of the commercial strips, and to accelerate the organization of the Payne Arcade business community. PROJECT ACTIVITIES: * Educate the business community about the Program. * Hire a program coordinator. * Design BISNET protocols and procedures for operating the system in cooperation with the District 5 Block Watch Programs and the Block Club Coordinator in the Saint Paul Police Department. * Solicit volunteers from the business community willing to become members of the BISNET Program and train them in the use of the equipment. * Monitor the daily use of the BISNET Program, supervise the use of the equipment, maintain the equipment, and evaluate its effectiveness. MANAGEMENT AND EVALUATION: The BISNET Program would be managed by a Program Coordinator, who would be hired and supervised by the Executive Director of the East Side Neighborhood Development Company which is working in close cooperation with the Payne-Arcade Business Association. The Program Coordinator would have to have skills in organizing and training volunteers, communicating with a wide range of business and community people, operating and maintaining a complex system, and the ability to respond quickly, appropriately, and tactfully to sometimes sensitive situations. The success of the program should be measurable by the numbers of security alerts and the number of apprehensions and by a decrease in commercial losses that can be documented by a questionnaire circulated to the business community at the end of the program year. Based on this questionnaire and police statistics, the Program Coordinator will prepare a written evaluation of the BISNET Program. � �� -//�b BISNET: THE BUSINESS SECURI7"Y NETWORK PROGRAM _ GRANT PRIVATE MATCH COST CATEGORY REQUEST MATCH SOURCE Program Coordinator ($15/hr, 20 hrs/wk) $15,600 SO Office facilities, supplies, &printing $4,400 $0 Insurance for system $0 5250 Business or foundation donations.

DIVISION OF NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELOPMENT JAMES SCHEIBEL 25 West Fourth Street,Saint Paul,Minnesota 55112 MAYOR 612-228-3200 May 25, 1990 Mr. Tom Harvey Department of Planning and Economic Development llth Floor, City Hall Annex 25 W. 4th Street Saint Paul, MN 55102 Dear Tom: Attached is a grant application from the East Side Neighborhood Development Company for the new Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program which you are administering. While this project is contingent on a couple of factors that are not at this time nailed down, I believe that it represents a tremendous opportunity for developing a new approach to community crime prevention, not only on the commercial strip, but in residential areas as well. The contingencies are two: * The first is that though the Saint Paul Police Department has budgeted for replacing 24 hand-held radio units and 1 repeater base station this year, that purchase hinges on where the budgetary cutbacks will ultimately fall. You should also know that the Fire Department is budgeting for replacing about the same number of portable radios in the first quarter of 1991, so that if this experiment is funded, and if it proves successful, the opportunity exists for replicating it with additional recycled equipment in another neighborhood next year. As an aside, there is another small benefit to the City for recycling its radio equipment in this way, and that is that Motorola is willing to give the City some trade-in value which it would ordinarily not allow. * The second contingency is that Motorola has not finalized what it is willing to offer as part of the package. I am assuming that they will ultimately be willing to recrystal the units which is needed to give them another frequency which will not conflict with existing Police channels, and that they will be willing to donate recharging units as well. Since this possibility of a trade-in and donation of Police Department equipment was presented just yesterday, it has not been possible to finalize the arrangements and to write down the understandings of the various parties. I expect to be able to resolve most of these uncertainties in the next week or so, and I will keep you informed of my progress. If such an arrangement can be worked out, I am confident that the BISNET Program sketched out in broad brush strokes here can have a significant impact on improving the Payne and Arcade business communities which are currently at such risk.

May 25, 1990 �j�y� K �anKamwn p�.Fp Signa ure of Individual Typed Name 't e Q�g�a�niZer Date Completing Application ATTACFi�M A The Mackubin/Front Area is a sensitive neighborhood facing many challenges. The District 6 land Use Plan describes the area as a "sporatic mixture of residential and industrial use...an intermix throughout the area making it visally unattractive." This type of land use configuration contributes to many other difficulties, including a � significant amamt of crime. The District 6 Plan states that "one of the highest concerns expressed in District 6 is crime...the largest increases in crime, nearly 44%, have been in the Northeast/Center of our district" which includes the Mackubin/Front area. "The most frequent violations are crimes against property." The latter plan also identifies the lack of and subsequent need for a "camunity-based crime prevention program �reated in close cooperation with district citizens and police officials." Residents in the area are concerned, yet distraught by the many difficu�ties and few successes their camunity has encamtered. Recen ly, they have experienced limited success with the de�r�lition of several vacant inciustrial buildings under the nusiance ordinance; buildings that have stood unoccupied as a monunent for repeated acts of vandelism for nearly two decades. This success has created some marientun, but many issues rgnain unchallengeci. Marydale Park is a neighborhood park located in the Mackubin/Front district. For years, this site has also been plagued by vandelism; acting as a gathering ground for �mdesirables/undesirable behavior. Loeb Lake is situated �n the heart of Marydale Park. This man-�nade lake has also created much controversy. Maintair�ed by the DNR, Loeb Lake has been the site for two accidential drownings of yamg children; the rrost recent occuring last fall. The cormiunity has requested that safety measures be taken to ensure the safety of Marydale Park/Loeb Lake, but to no avail. Tt�e housing condition is another prevalent concern in the area. The 1980 Census indicates that in Census Tract 308 and 313, which represent Mackubin/Front, nearly 50% of the housing stock was built prior to 1939; and subse- quently, there exists a need to faus on housing rehabilitiation. The 1980 Census data also identifies this area as having a mixture of low and moderate incane levels. Census Tract 308 is corTprised of 4,415 persons with a median incane of $15,775 and 25.7� of the resicietns are below 200'� of poverty level. Census Tract 313 is c�riseci of 2,083 persons with a median incane of $13,073 and 36q of the residents are belav 2(X�'� of poverty level. The incane level of the neighborhood may be a contributing factor to the lack of pursuance of housing maintenence/ rehabilitation programs. 11ie D6PC in conjunction with City Council , Evirormental Health and St. Paul Housing Rehab. Offi�e carpleted a "mini-sweep" this past spring to began to address this issue. 11ie "sw�" Pncamassed code enfo��:err�ent with rehabilitation inforniation and specialized 4� loan program. In a few hours, we noted 66 exterior housing code violations and distributed hundred's of packets of housing inforniation. The "sweep" was a beginning, a band-aid; not the cure. An opportunity exists to further involve residents in programs geared to their afford- ability level.

The program will provide a systenatic, proven method of block club formation/retention; instituting a block by block process based on the St. Paul Police Dept.'s Crime Prevention Unit models and the Take Back Your Block Publication marketed by Dayton's Bluff �-IS. Our goal is to create in excess of 30 active block clubs; provide up to 40 matching grants for crime prevention hardware; host 3-4 neighborhood operated events to utilize Marydale Park--prarate a sense of cortm�mity; refer 30 households to housing rehabilitation programs through the St. Paul Hane Loan Fund and Neigh. Energy Consortiun and address the needs of the corrrriunity in overseeeing the neccessary instal- lation of safety/precautionary devices in the Park. In addition, block clubs will serve to proRate/increase par- ticipation in other programs such as curbside recycling and act as a referral source to agencies such as the N.E. Medical Center, NEAR, Block Nurse Program and Capitol Camunity Services. In order to accrnplish our goals, the D6PC will continue to utilize the services and strengthen our relationship with several city departrnents and organizations including: Dept. of Public Works, Parks & Rec., Planning and Econ. Developn�nt, DNR, St. Paul Hane Lwn Fund, NN GREEN, National Asson. of Conservation and Service Core, ParkWatch, Neigh. Energy Consortiun and the St. Paul Police Dept. Curr�ently, Police Officer Archie Smith is an official representative and active participant in our district couricil, District 6 has also w�rked well with other units within the dept. including Officer Friendly (Sgt. Thanas) and NAO's. District 6 believes that the challenges faced by the said area are not insurnquntable, but do warrant the attention of a 3/4 time block club organizer who will purpue the issues identified with residents/business awners and agencies wit�h systematic perserverance; coordinate/facilitate crime prevention/block club activities; refer and prarote housing rehab. and other identified programs as well as record and submit required docur�ntation. The block club organizer will be responsible to the Pirn�ary Carm�nity Organizer and to the D6PC Board. 11ie Council will appoint a resident carmittee to oversee the execution of objectives as d�ronstrated with am cur ent U-RAP(S) and am NPP; both of which rely heavily on volunteer labor/participation.

We will adapt our strategy to accomodate the final cost determination of the signs, within a dollar limit of $3,350. Funding guidelines require that only 50A of the neighborhood match be provided through volunteer labor, a limit of $7,180. Our neighborhood match of $16,895, less our volunteer labor, �9,700, leaves a match balance of $7,195, an amount which complies with guideline boundaries. . cI�'�f�D _ : �� - ;� � ; o , : �� L ,+ �� CJ1�!��; 3� '� �_�i� h . � � �{ �� ;� v (�1�'� � r � ;� ; m �U�I '�� .L;��J��U�l„'�;// r : J ��0� ��I�.�� -__._._.___ ��,� : �� ` �� ... � ; . 000❑ � ;� m � � . , �:�l(D�� I��_�. ,� ; maa �� m , � . � oD �m � �L��:�'��:�J �C��;� : 0� , 1.��' �'1��d� _:; �;� .

Yes �_ No If yes, identify. ��p� W• �A,k,(.�,•,.� -Ronald W. Pauline President 5-25-90 Signatu e of Individual Typed Name Title Date Completing Application � We are proposing to fund two Saint Paul Police officers on an overtime hasis to patrol the target area for five days a week, eight hours each day, from July 1 through October 19, 1990. The hours of the day and days of the week the officers work will be determined by current crime data, input from the community and the Saint Paul Police Department. The Saint Paul Police Department would retain management rights over the police officers and would, in fact, provide supervisory services as needed. The Saint Paul Police Department has agreed to supply any equipment necessary to the operation. �U -/�G� We have for 18 years been presented with vagrance, loitering, drunkenness, indecent exposure and panhandling in the target areas mentioned in the proposal. There is a liquor store on the corner of St. Albans Street and University Avenue and many alcoholics seem to loiter either on street corners or in the alley in close proximity to it. Because of the pornography at the Faust and Flick and nude dancing at the Belmont Club; the majority of the property adjacent to both alleys are rental in need of proper management and care. Some of these houses are utilized as havens for vagrants (Flop houses) . Our goal is to eliminate vagrancy, loitering, panhandling, public drinking, loud profanity, uninating in the streets and alleys from this target area. Also, as of the past few years narcotic traffic and minor gang infiltration has been evident. We need beat police from 8:00 a.m. to 8: 00 p.m. , Monday - Saturday. These beat police will stringently enforce all laws as it applies to disrespectful and disruptive, immoral, and illegal activity in this target area. Presently, Olson Brothers liquor store employ off duty police to control the loitering on its property and the police department make loiterers disburse on the corners and in the alley, but that only happens as long as the police are there. When residents approach the Vagrants (Mrs. Goodlow, 681 Aurora Ave. , - Cheryl Allen, 649 Aurora Ave. , -Graham Butler, 689 Aurora Ave. , - Ronald W. Pauline, 749 Aurora Ave. ) they usually disburse but when you leave they are right back. Our block club owns 675 Aurora Avenue, located directly behind the liquor store; it's newly renovated and rented to a respectful family. We've been working with the Code enforcement departments as to cleaning up properties through the use of Summary abatements. We have one house at 639 Aurora Avenue that we have monitored the traffic of Vagrants and there have been numerous police calls. One of our priorities is to address this property in a stringent manner, (i.e. - nuisance house) . The businesses are being hurt tremendously because of the activities in the area because many people do not like to be in a negative atmosphere as exists now. We will monitor this project weekly as to the disposition of various laws to discourage people from viewing this area as a desirable place to loiter and present us with disrespectful and disruptive behavior. 1. Number of arrests 2. Dispursment of undesirables 3 . Disposition of cases a. City Attorney's office b. Judges Page Two � The Faust Theatre is scheduled to be torn down this summer and we (ASA) will beautify that lot as well as the Flick lot with flowers, trees, shrubbery, and sod. Twin City Used Appliance will beautify its parking lot with flowers and landscaping. We will maintain the beautification on the corners (West) of University and Dale and will encourage businesses and residents to clean and beautify their property in the target area. g�-//�o �°'T' °- CITY OF SAINT PAUL :� ': DEPARTMENT OF POLICE o a � �i�niu .

His determination to change the perception and increase the liveability of the University Avenue area, stabilize the neighborhood, and enhance the viability of the businesses is to be commended. Although some progress has been made in the area of street prostitution and the effort to close down the porno theaters has been successful, work still needs to be done to control the panhandling, the drunkenness, and the vagrancy that takes place in the neighborhood.

Attn: Ron Pauline 770 University Ave. St. P3ti1, N�1 55014 Dear Ron: Western State Bank supports your efforts to obtain a beat cop to patrol the area from Dale to Grotto and Aurora to Sherburne. We agree with you that constant pressure by a visible law enforcement officer is necessary to move the loitering, drunkedness, littering and possible criminal behaviors which are being exhibited by a number of people congregating near the Olson Bros. liquor store. In the event the police department is not willing to allocate the resources without additional funding, we would be willing to provide some financial support. The Bank has experienced five (5) breakins to automobiles in our parking lot in the last two (2) months. In addition, we have hired a guard ourselves to escort our employees to and from work each day. We hope the continual presence of a police officer would help to reduce the crime rate in the immediate vicinity. This in turn would increase business for the businesses along University Ave. Sincerely, �� Stephen C. Erdall President SCE/mks �..

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The geographic area that corresponds to the Ramsey Hill Association is the Police grids of 129 and 130 . In 1989 grid 129 ranked fifth in overall offenses in the City of St . Paul . Since 1987 , robbery in this area has increased 71$ , aggravated assault has increased 12$ and auto theft has increased 70$ . Since 1988 , rape has increased 33$ and theft has increased 19� . In grid 130 , since 1987 auto theft has increased 41$ and vandalism has increased 40� . Crime is a serious and increasinq concern of both the Ramsey Hi11 Association and its area residents . Active citi2en participation must be leveraged to identify problem properties , specific geographical areas of concern and the responsible property owners , business owners and residents of these areas . Once identified, neighbors in the form of block clubs , can open up communication between the responsible parties and begin to organize crime prevention strategies to deal with specific areas of need: trash and garbage, drug trafficking, noise , disruptive behavior, vandalism etc . To accomplish this , the Ramsey Hill Association requests $20 , 000 . 00 to fund a Block Club Organizer for the geographical area corresponding to police grid 129 and 130 . The Ramsey Hill Association has had a volunteer task force which has studied four successfully organized crime prevention programs within the City of St. Paul and has concluded that the Block Club program which uses tools that actively involve residents , owners, renters, business owners and the police in a partnership to improve the livability of a neighborhood, with a paid organizer, proved to be the most successful method of impacting neighborhood crimes they have discovered to date . This Organizer will monitor and respond to residential burglary occurrences in the two grid target area , working in conjunction with the St . Paul Police Crime Prevention Unit, the Burglary Unit , and the Crime Prevention Coordinator. Crime Alert flyers will be distributed to all blocks who experience a residential burglary. These flyers will encourage : - any information that may have been connected to the burglary be turned into the St . Paul Burglary Unit. - that this residential area form a block club. 3 , Monthly, the Block Club Organizer will submit a crime prevention , article to the Ramsey Hill Neighborhood Newspaper. Articles will feature current neighborhood crime occurrences and specific topics of neighborhood interest : - Housing Court - Public Hearing Process - Operation Identification - Highlights on Block Club Benefits - Health Department ' s versus Fire Departments Function in Relation to Property Conditions - House Watch, Home Security Audit, Neighborhood Assistance Officer ' s and Police Reserve ' s Program, etc . The Block Organizer will work with the Captain of the N.W. Police Team to keep the neighborhood current on the issues the police are experiencing as a priority and will work specifically with the Crime prevention Unit of the Police Department on strategies to reduce : auto theft , burglary, etc . The B1ocY. Club Organizer ' s main responsibility will be to organize 40 residential block clubs in a twelve month period. A minimum of two meetings , staff facilitated, will be held for each club (80 total ) . In addition, Block Club Organizer will provide to each club: 1 . A residential block map which lists all property owners and residents, their property address and their phone numbers for each of the 4- block clubs . This map will be distributed to all block club members and one copy will be shared with the N.W. Police Team, to help facilitate proactive policing. 2 . Operation identification numbers , tracking inventory sheet and operation identification decals to each block club member. 3 . Information and assistance for purchasing crime prevention signs under the City crime prevention sign policy. 4 . Current information about residential burglary occurrences in the neighborhood. 5 . Information of locks , lights and general crime prevention tactics . 4 9�- /�� 6 . Assistance in educating and developing strategies within block clubs to: a . Identify property owners of rental property, communicate in writing, by phone, and in block club meetings with these owners . b. Network police, public health, the fire department, respective city council members , the Ramsey Hill Association, and the District Planning Council to assist and support block clubs in problem resolution . Program Objectives : 1 . Form 40 residential block clubs in one year, educate clubs in crime prevention strategies and identify each club with the N.W. Police Team as a neighborhood ally. 2 . Develop strategies with each block club: to utilize the City services most effectively, to identify and work with property owners , residents and business owners which serves to increase the livability of the neighborhood. 3 . Provide information and referrals to those not yet participating in the crime prevention program through news articles and Crime Alert Flyers . 4 . 80 crime prevention signs posted in the target area . Program Goals : 1 . To reduce the tolerance for criminal activity, thereby reducing the opportunity for crime and increasing the risk of participating in criminal activity. 2 . To improve the livability of the neighborhood, as reported by block club participants , property owners and business owners . 3 .

Wo i ta s __ S�4mmu n�r�a n i zEr�5�22/90 S g ture of Individual Typed Name Tit].e Date Co eting Application L NEED FOR BLOCR CLUB ORGANIZATION As discussion has arisen over topics of concern at District 10 meetings, repeatedly, community residents have indicated a strong interest in the organization of block clubs as a positive way to develop a networking of neighbors to develop a stronger community base and disseminate information about resources apppropriately. Interest has arisen, specifically around crime prevention. In the past, several informal crime watch block clubs had been formed, but their on—going existence has been difficult to maintain without formal support and resources. District 10 completed a prioritized Long Range Plan with the community and the formation of block clubs was ranked as a top priority. This has been included in the 1990 goals and objectives of the District 10 Community Council. The impact of growing numbers of individuals attending the State Fair, and the on—going participation in Como Park itself has resulted in an encroachment into the residential neighborhood, bringing with it crime, litter� traffic, parking, noise and occasional property damage. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED BLOCKWORKER PROGRAM Our intent is to form 'COMO NEIGHBORHOOD CONNECTIONS" a block worker program unique in that it will be designed to be multi—focused to address such issues as crime prevention, senior concerns, safety, recycling, as well as issues particular to specific blocks. The concept of this program is to encourage neighbors to exchange information and to offer help to each other on an informal basis. With a blockworker program, residents develop a sense of shared community within a neighborhood, trust is built among neighbors as well as improved communications on a grassroots level. FIRST YEAR GOALS AND OBJECTIVES The goals of this project are; empowerment of residents to gain greater control over their lives, increased resident involvement in District 10 and other activities within the community, encourage and identify new leadership, encouragement of resident interaction with various city departments, participation in informational crime prevention meetings as well as formation of block clubs and establishment of matching fund grant program for crime prevention hardware and signs to residents and businesses. During the first year, 30 block clubs will be formed 10 in each of the subdistricts. Captains will be identified and trained. Such start up costs as development of resource and information materials, publicity and training will be absorbed in the original funding. On—going funds will be solicited inpart from foundation grants, resident and business contributions, fundraisers and in—kind contributions. SUPERVISION AND MANAGII�IEEIVT The treasurer of the District 10 Community Council will be responsible for the fiscal record keeping of the project. The program will operate under the supervisory framework of an Advisory Council, under the general direction of the Community Council. This Advisory Coucil will help develop long range goals and set direction for the program. They will alo make regular reports to the District Council and evaluate the program on an ongoing basis. Staff will be supervised by the Community Organizer. The staff position funded by this grant will be a 1/2 ti.me position with limited benefits. The person will be employed by the District Council. STAFF RESPONSIBILITIES Train blockworkers and captains for crime watch, operation ID and related crime prevention efforts. Form 30 block clubs in the community as a first year goal. Establish a matching—fund grant program for residents to purchase crime prevention hardware. Expand the use of security hardware and signs in area businesses. Develop a newsletter to network community. Do community outreach, Report to Advisory Council and assist in development of program and future planning. Identify other issues and needs that should be incorporated into the program. , R . � _ _ _-------- - � - J . , t - ----__ `h. ---- - __ _ __ ---_-- �I _�_ �.I��^"`J l� •1.��.� �L�}Zt/�I � ti ' . `'' �I� �1<�1:--:s', -"� �I C-1 C��1Q, � � ' '� �� --J� I_ _.__ ! !_y`J L__J �r �.,w,d�� \ b � ' �ty � ��' .—' 1 \ '1, �o�' i�?---I I I !

Signature of Individual Typed Name Title Date Completing Applicat on �i� /'��Il�j�� , Susan Marschalk Community Organizer 5/23/90 1l�Vr��l +�f (7� COMMUNITY BUILDING INITIATIVE , The Hamline Midway Coalition is requesting funding for a Community Building Initiative from July, 1990 through June, 1991 . The purpose of this initiative is to encoura�e • neighborhood stabilization by bridging relationships between the Hamline Midway Coalition and other community organizati.ons including youth graups, senior citizen associations, fraternal organizations, as wFll as the churches and schools in the neighborhood. It is also the intent of this intiative to build a stronger connection with community residents and business people and to ensure that all activities in which the Coalition participates, will be inclusive of every community member. In 1982, the Coalition participated in .block club organizing around crime prevention. Although those block clubs have not been maintained from the perspective of ongoing meetings, the Hamline Midway Coalition has kept those contacts informed of Coalition activities. We are interested in approaching neighborhood stabilization from an alternative approach to traditional crime pre.vention organizing. This is a diverse urban community, however renters, youth and people of color are seldom involved in neighborhood events or decision making. The Coalition is committed to building relationships with eve.ry population represented in the Hamline Midway community and an actual strategy is needed to encourage. broad participation. Part of that strategy is to re=establish a black club network that is based on building relation- ships between neighbors, to encourage problem solving at the community level , speci- fically that community members work with each other to find solutions, whether it is a problem property or a barking dog. Although enforcement can be of assistance in temporarily solving an issue, usually the problem will surface. again. We are interested in defining the systemic problem, and assisting neighborhood residFnts in working toward a solution. Rather than discussing a "neighbor" at a block club gathering that people. consider is creating a problem, we would like to see people include that person in the discussion in order to arrive at a satisfactory solution. The expectation is that Board members, along with staff will particpate in a door knocking campaign throughout the community to identify the interests of neighborhood residents, develup an understanding of neighborhood values� and identify potential leaders who would havP the skill and cammitment in organizing their own block. Those "neighbors" will be contacted again for a one on one interview. Staff will work with those individuals to organize a block meeting or party. The staff and Board members will also contact leaders of existing organizations including booster clubs, community groups, senior citizen and youth associations, churches and schools. In Jun� the Hamline Midway Coalition will be working with West Side Citizens Organization on a �ommunity building training. The two organizations have hired an organizer from Chicago to facilitate a community meeting between each community based group and representatives from other neighborhood organizations. This is a beginning for the Hamline Midway Coalition in building relationships with other organized constituencies. With the information that is gathered, staff will begin setting up town meetings on a smaller scale which will address a particular issue or event of a specific geographic ar� of the neighborhood. The goal of these meetings will be to connec*. neighbors with each other, encourage ongoing communication and establish relationships. Up until last year the Hamline Midway Coalition published a newsletter, but because of 'funding shortages it was necessary to end this service. Recently, we published � the Neighborhood News again, however it is now being distributed throughout the entire neighborhood, rather than just block clubs. A portion of this grant would be used toward continuing the publication of the newsletter. � The Hamline Midway Coalition is actively working to concentrate on the capacities of the Hamline Midway neighborhood, not the deficiencies.

Roberta Meaard Communitv Orqanizer Signature of Indiv al T ed Name Title Date Completing Application PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The St. Anthony Park Assoication ( SAPA) and the St . Anthony Park Community Council (SAPCC ) are applying for a Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant with THE GOAL OF inaintaining and enhansing a safe urban community in the St. Anthony Park district of St. Paul through its block worker network and related programs . THE OBJECTIVES of the grant project are to reduce crime and to increase the involvement of residents of St. Anthony Park through the following ACTIVITIES : 1 . maintain the network of 100 block workers and area coordinators to support the CrimeWatch program, recruiting new individuals as needed ( list attached) ; 2 . hold at least one meeting in each of the ten areas of St . Anthony Park to train block workers on CrimeWatch, Operation I .D. , and other crime prevention activities ; 3 . establish a minimum of ten new active CrimeWatch areas ; 4 . increase the use of security hardware ( locks , window security, alarms ) in homes through a 1 : 1 grant matching program; 5 . update and expand the data-bank of all residents , as a resource for CrimeWatch, including a talent bank; 6 . produce and distribute four issues of the newsletter, THE NETWORKER ( sample issue attached) , to all 2 , 500 households ; 7 . increase the number of block clubs by 20X; 8 . welcome new residents with a "new neighbor packet" , including CrimeWatch information; 9 . expand outreach efforts through projects such as "adopt a park" , house and garden tours, environmental projects , and better utilization of community resources . St . Anthony Park wrestles with the problems of crime, deteriorated housing, loss of community identity, industrialization, and inadequate human services . In the past, St . Anthon,y Park residents have prevented many problems from becoming serious by addressing them early. The network of 100 block workers and the programs related to that network are intrigal to these prevention/ intervention efforts . Presently, the community is divided into ten areas . Area Coordinators oversee the efforts of the block workers in each area. Approximately 45 block clubs { list attached) meet to cooperate on project, solve mutual problems (crime prevention, watching one another' s homes , alley lighting, cooperative alley plowing, babysitting co-op, landscaping and for social purposes ) . Communication between the SAPA and SAPCC and the community is maintained through a quarterly newsletter, THE NETWORKER and lisison with each Board. Funds to provide staff to maintain the network and these activities, and to cover related expenses , are necessary in order that the program will continue. An effort to up-date CrimeWatch and other crime prevention activities was recently initiated in St. Anthony Park via a community-wide meeting on March 22 , 1990. Since then block workers in two of the areas have met with an officer of the St. Paul Police Department to discuss crime prevention strategies . During 1989 a policy on the use of the block worker network in emergencies (attached) was worked out cooperatively with the SAPA, SAPCC and the Police Department. An half-time ( 20 hrs/week) Outreach Coordinator (Job Description attached) will be hired by SAPA and SAPCC to administer this crime prevention program. The Outreach Coordinator will work under the supervision of the SAPCC Community Organizer, work out of the Community Council Office, and report monthly to the SAPA Board and the Human Service Committee of the SAPCC. Evaluation will be by tracking progress on each of the grant objectives. (This grant project will be carried out in cooperation with a parallel project being proposed by the St . Anthony Park Merchant's Association for which the Outreach Coordinator will work an additional 10 hours/week. ) �r�-��.

May 1.990 Treasurer' s Report , St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association • Rev. 5/24/90 �� ' PROJECT DESCRIPTION Project Name: North St. Anthony Park Commercial Crime Watch Project Goals: To develop a prototype crime watch program similar to security programs at regional malls, but suitable for implementation among small independent businesses in neighborhood commercial area Objectives: 1 ) to improve conxnunication among businesses regarding security issues 2) to improve security measures in commercial neighborhood 3) to deter crime and provide swift response to criminal activity Activities 1 ) Establish telephone caller network to link neighborhood businesses an teps: 2) Develop looseleaf security manual for use by business emmployees 3) Develop and disseminate for public display and business use various window decals, counter signs, placards and other signage to publicize program and participation of businesses in program 4) Coordinate police and Commercial Crime Watch activities 5) Improve security measures in co�unercial district through physical improvements and coordinated volunteer efforts. �Existi_n� Crime rev�ion�cfivities: The St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association formed a Security Committee to investigate establishment of a Mall Watch-type program. The Cothmittee has met only twice and has not developed any program as yet due to the time demands on its membership. Paid staff is needed to develop and implement such a program. The Association has neither staff nor offices . I Existing Need: The North St. Anthony Park commercial area has suffered in recent years from periodic episodes involving robbery, burglary, car theft, assaults, shoplifting, passing of bad and forged checks, vandalism and other crime. Although crime rates are not as severe in North St. Anthony Park as in other areas, these crimes have more shock value than in other areas and contribute to feelings of insecurity. Much more could be done to improve security and deter crime. Project Management: The Association will contract with the St. Anthony Park Community Council for the part-time services of a paid project coordinator. The coordinator will be an employee of the Comnunity Council and will also be responsible for implementing the Council 's residential crime watch project. The Association will develop a job description covering the coordinator's involvement with this project. The Coordinator would report to and be responsible to the Association through its Security Committee and the President of the Association. The Community Council would serve as fiscal agent for the project. As part of the project, the Coordinator will be responsible for project implementation and documenting compliance with project goals. The Coordinator will prepare initial draft of project report at end of project period. The Coordinator's report shall be reviewed by the. Association's Security Canmittee and submitted to the Association for approval and submission to the Community Council and the appropriate city officials. One of the goals of the project is to develop prototypical information which can be used by other neighborhood commercial areas to work together to improve security and deter crime. All information and materials developed through this project would be made available to other neighborhood commercial areas seeking similar programs. Joint coordination of the residential and commercial crime watch projects will enhance crime prevention efforts in the entire northwestern corner of the City. In subsequent years, the Association hopes to expand the project to include additional businesses in North St. Anthony Park and South St. Anthony Park. � Additional Information: See attached descriptions of Mall Watch programs in various regional shopping malls outside the City of St. Paul . „ ., . . � , � o . o . , � � �� o � -.. � �, `� \ ,,..- -� , � \ \ O . _ -0 _ � C � -�J' � O� `� — � � � � � O O . � O . � � , O ` , _ o . ;�:��:::. . • o o �o 0 0 , . , o a � � � � ' �;% � '::;:. � O - ,.. ► s Q O ��';=� � � �L �� \ =t:::. � ��,�:i C .�'+i[jrr;. � �:�=��`�,' O � O O , � .:::. - a o \ v ::r:::::::. ,::: --, ,o 0 P . :::.:::.::::::: �... -�. ,� - � ��:::::.- , , ;, :�.. , �.,. . �, -:�.-- o � , !��.:�!:t:;:;;:. - � �- , :t:t::!::;., �. � � �- .. . � O �t:�:;. ~_!:i O '•'i: ��:�� /• \ ` i:eiie�:it. ♦ �� \ \ � � ,`� � (�,. ��`1• �(�1 �i i ��` \ O ` � Q � 1 , � ,��1� 1`� ��\ \\ � 1 .�� \I`� , �_,�� 1 / \` —.�-��_ . . � �!?•�':.

ALLEY LIGHTING and CRIME in ST. PAUL Objective: Investigate whether alley lighting reduces crime. Proposal: Estimate the association between the amount of alley lighting and the average crime rate by carrying out a designed statistical study. In addition,explore community attitudes and perceptions about alley lighring. Background: There is widespread agreement that well lighted streets, alleys and buildings discourage crime, yet many of the alleys in St. Paul are poorly lit. Why don't people put in alley lights? There are probably many reasons. Some possible ones are: • Residents are not aware that NSP will install and maintain alley lights for a monthly charge of approximately $7. • Residents don't know the extent to which the presence of alley lighting reduces crime so they are unable to make an informed decision about whether to have alley lights. • There is often litde incentive to bear the entire cost of providing alley lighting that benefits neighbors since it is often very difficult to get neighbors to contribute to the cost of an alley light. • NSP requires a 3 year payment commitment for each alley light that is installed and maintained. Renters may not be willing to make this commitment. • Low income residents may not be able to afford alley lighting,particularly if they must bear the entire cost of a unit, Why a Designed Study? Suppose, instead of a designed study, data are collected on levels of alley lighting and reported crimes and used to estimate the association between them. Such a study would be called an "observational" study as opposed to a "designed" study. Any conclusions made on the basis of such an observational study may be very misleading. For example,residents of higher crime areas are more likely to have alley lighting than residents of low crime areas so when you look at the association between levels of lighting and reported crime you see a positive relationship between lighting and crime--higher levels of alley lighting are associated with higher crime rates! Carefully designed staristical studies are necessary to establish cause and effect relationships and control for the effects of other facwrs not directly related to the question of interest. Outline of the Study: • Determine study area (see attached map)and duration of study (3 years). • Determine high,moderate and low crime areas within the study area. • Decide on sample size and sample unit(blocks or groups of blocks). • Decide on levels of alley lighting. • Randomly allocate levels of alley lighting to sample units. • Decide on types of reported crimes to include in study. , �� f//�� ' Alley Lighting in St. Paul Proposal Budget Budget Alley lights for sampled areas $13,S 0 0 150 @ $90 per light per yeaz Research and analysis computer use �3,000 Mail survey printing �2 0 0 Mail survey postage $3 0 0 Adminisvarion, Office and Office Supplies �3,0 0 0 Total �20,000 In-Kind Contribution Background research �3,0 0 0 1 volunteer statistician 300 hours @ $10 per hour Data Analysis and dissemination of findings $3,0 0 0 1 volunteer statisrician 300 hours @ $10 per hour Data Collection $4,8 0 0 l0 volunteers 4 hours per month x 12 months @ $10 per hour Monitoring study �12,0 0 0 10 volunteers 10 hours per month (6 hours per month for meetings)x 12 months @ $10 per hour Survey--conswcting survey �4 0 0 2 volunteers 40 hours @ $10 per hour Survey-- stuffing envelope and mailing $ 10 0 5 volunteers 10 hours @ $10 per hour Survey--coding responses on computer �3 0 0 1 volunteer 30 hours @ $10 per hour Survey-- analysis and disseminarion of findings �1,2 0 0 2 volunteers 120 hours @ $10 per hour Total -- 2,000 hours �2 0,0 0 0 : � •'�� i � P � _ � � � � � � L �� ' N � ` 1 W�ll CJEI� ` r a �' ; , , w ws uw • � r � Y � o' .. r..... .. � rp"" - . , � . � � • E � . . � . � `' r � • �d` �� V — � ._ i . � u � � � � ' � �r s � �, � � � t Qtt brar. � F • � � Z �tivrr � • U .

The consortium is an entity vith by-lars. The coneortium rill �oin a neMly revived coalition of dietrict councils in the erea of the SouthMeat Police Team. The goal of the coalition Mill be to heve greater interaction Mith the police in the team. There Mill be a tvo ray communication established vhereby the police Mill notify those who have been victimized by crimes about the local block club ectivity and the district councils Mill communicate information received fron� police to the block clube on suepicious activity and trends. Lexington-Nawline Neighborhood An ective block organizing effort hae been in place in Lex-Ham for over fifteen years. The program ie coordinated by three volunteere and the Crime Prevention Committee. The 1990 goal of the Block Organizing Committee is to have every block in the Lex-Ham neighborhood organized Mith a block coordinator Mith epecific monthly and reekly meeting dates for residents on the block. The block coordinator is reeponeible for distributing action alert flyers, coordinating the phone tree and coordinating �neetings rith the police and community council. Lexington-Hamline Community Council ie a member of the St. Paul Community Anti-Crack Coalition end the Crime Data Taek Force. The Lex-Ham neighborhood is divided geographically into four pockets. There are quarterly pocket meetings at residente homes to diBCUes crime releted and other issues that effect all blocke in the pocket. Snelling He�aline Neighborhood About 20 block clubs have been organized in the peat. Some of these are active and most are not. The block leeders ere good contact people even Mhen the block clubs are not real active. Some iseues ere not crime related. Me have found that active block clubs need Mider ecope of ectivity end interest to maintain viability. A community council goal for 1990 is to organize five neM block clubs end strengthen five of those elready operating. There are about 35 blocke in the neighborhood. A technique initieted this year et Snelling-Hamline Mhich seems to be helpful is to invite reeidente in adjoining blocks to �neeting/parties to let them get an idea of the proceBe. The community council is a �aember of the Crin�e Data Task Force to help identify the date needs of district councile rith the police department. Snelling-Hamline is also e member of the St. Paul Community Anti-Creck Coalition. 1 . �v� �1� !lerria� Park Heighborhood Merriem Park hae not organized Crime Prevention Committees or block clubs in the paet. Evidence of drug activity and party houses has been an incentive to become more ective in this area. The Merriam Perk Community Council is a member of the St. Paul Community Anti-Crack Coalition.

We will coordinate our efforts with other crime prevention programs in the area served by the Southwest Area Team Police through the Southwest Area Crime Prevention Coalition. Signature of Individual Typed Name Title Date Comp eting Applica i ��J �L�� therine Tarnowski Community Organizer 5-24-90 The District 14 Community Council is requesting funding to further develop and implement our Block Leaders Organizing for Community Concerns (BLOCC) effort. Our BLOCC Program is � not designed to be just a crime prevention program. It is designed to build the capacity of the Macalester-Groveland area through the development of neighborliness, neighborhood leadership and effective communication. It is our belief that the stimulation of , neighborhood capacity building results in a safer� more stable communities. We want to work to develop a network of BLOCC leaders on each and every one of the more than S00 block faces in the Macalester-Groveland neighborhood. This effort will be an opportunity for neighbors to get together to deal with common concerns and interests. These BLOCC Clubs will be an informal association of residents of a given block working together within a well-structured network of other blocks. This network will be used to help residents get to know one another, to identify issues of interest or concern, and to learn to work together. The BLOCC Program also will serve to stimulate communication among blocks and between the blocks and the community council. It is intended [hat the BLOCC Program will first build a sense of mutual concern among neighbors for helping each other and that this concern and interest will lead to joint efforts amono others to watch out for each other's property, block-wide premises checks and expansion of Operation ID, installation of private alley lighting, and group purchase of locks and security systems. Our crime prevention efforts will include a Neighborhood Crime Prevention Fair which will draw public attention to crime prevention measures. Our crime prevention program will be developed through joint efforts with the Southwest Area Team Police and district councils participating in the new Southwest Area Crime Prevention Coalition. While crime preven[ion is the first goal of the District 14 BLOCC Program, another long term goal of the District 14 Community Council is to support and develop activities that will maintain and upgrade Macalester-Groveland's aoing housing stock. Most of our housing stock is in relatively good condition; however, 2/3 of the housing stock is over 50 years old with many homes dating back to the 1920's. Ttany of these older homes are in need of major work. Because of the high cost of housing, high property taxes and the high energy costs associated with old buildings, many District 14 residents are "house poor" with little disposable income for major home repairs. The council would like to work to develop mechanisms for group contracting for home repairs, maintenance, and energy improvements in order to preserve and improve an aging housing stock. �ti'e see this kind of effort as critical to the preservation of District 14's aging housing stock. The District 14 Community Council, with funding by the Afinneapolis Foundation' s Neighborhood Self 1�elp Initiatives Program (i�tNSHIP), created its BLOCC Program in 1984. Over three years the council successfully identified and recruited BLOCC Leaders, trained BLOCC Leaders, and assis[ed with organizing approximately 300 block faces. The network was computerized so that information could be disseminated readily through a regularly updated and continually expanding roster of BLOCC Leaders. Unfortunately, over the past two years the District 14 BLOCC Program has been without resources or staff. ttie are seeking funds to re-activate this program. The future of the central cities in metro areas is the unsolved urban problem of our nation. Despite the strengths of our many excellent center city nei;hborhoods, these neighborhoods are plagued by uncertainty about the future - uncertainty which seriously threatens neighborhood stability. This uncertainty is caused by a slow decline in housing quality, increased rental occupancy, fear of crime and absence of a feeling of personal and family security, absence of neighborhood pride and a sense of community for a majority of area residents� absence of governmental attention to areas that are not already blighted, and an absence of economical do-it-yourself efforts. Operating by themselves, residents have no ability to influence the stability of their neighborhood. The District 14 Community Council intends to create, through BLOCC, an opportunity for residents to form interests groups directed toward solving problems with their own resources. BIACC provides an outlet for creative problem solving that will develop leadership and preserve and improve the community. BLOCC provides residents with the opportunities and mechanism to maintain the quality of their neighborhoods and take measures aimed at preventing the deterioration that can victimize central city neighborhoods. �'o - /�l,� Proposed Budget District 14 Community Council BLOCC Program July 1, 1990 - June 30, 1991 Crime Prev.

This person will work approximately 20 hours a week. The ELOCC Coordinator will be an employee of the District 14 Community Council. (S)he will work under the supervision of the community council's Comr.;unity Organizer/Executive Director and with the council's BLOCC Conmittee. The ELOCC Committee has not met for almost two years and will need to be re-created. The BLOCC Coordinator's first tastc will be to contact the people designated as BLOCC Leader on approximately 300 block faces. (This involves considerably fewer than 300 people as many blocks are organized by two block faces with one BLOCC Leader designated for both.) ��ihile we have called and aslced for help on one issue or another by at least 50 of these BLOCC Leaders in the past year, no one has contacted them for two years. jtie need to identify who is willing to serve in t}iis capacity, determine how active the block has been and whether or not coinrnunity council assistance is needed. BLOCC Clubs that have beco�ie inactive will need to be re-activated. t�e will want to recruit BLOCC Leaders and organize blocks that have never been orranized. The vLOCC Coordinator will be responsible for updatino the roster of BLOCC Leaders so that information on hot grids etc can easily be disseminated. (S)he also will be responsible for BLOCC Leader training, compiling statistics and evaluation of the program. The BLOCC Coordinator, witii the council 's Community Organizer, provide technical assistance with the orpanizino of BLOCC ��;eetinbs organized around non-crime prevention issues, s�ch as traffic, land use, schools etc. The �3LOCC Coordinator will assist the BLOCC Committee in puttin,g on a NeiGhborhood Crime Prevention Fair which will draw community attention to the need for and success associated with crime prevention efforts. This Fair �oill be held in the spring of 1991 at I�iacalester Colle;e. It will be a "home show of crime prevention" including exhibits by security companies and crime related service agencies. Separate funding is being sought for this activity. ��e will dra�a on the experience of our 1983 sponsorship of a similar Crime Prevention Fair. It is our intent to hire an intern from one of the area colleges to help with this activity. Iiousing maintenance efforts will not occur until the BLOCC Club network has been updated and may have to be delayed until 1991-92. �a'�� Evaluation District 14 Community Council BLOCC Pronram In the period running from July 1, 1990 to June 31, 1991 we propose to organize an additional 50 block faces, tti'hether or not this number is achieved will be a component of our evaluation. Another component of the evaluation will be through conductin� focus �roups. We will conduct focus groups of BLOCC Leaders to determine whether or not block organizin� contributes to their feelings of neighborliness and/or a feeling of security and safety. l��e will be working with the Police Departroent to determine whether or not a statistical reduction in the crimes of burglary and vandalism occurs with the re-activation of the Uistrict 14 ELOCC Pro�ram. 3 � � � � � D� �i� �� oo o .,� � � � � �-� � � � � �� L � I�� _ � � � `� � o � � ° �'� � �J�1 �� .:��% a Q a �' � � � � � � � ,� (T;L�pt15 � __ o +-' Q' E ` °° yn� � � � ri� Nri � . -� __ �l m� � � � 3 ° � � � � � � o ; : �l� � ~ �� _ o � � � c a� � o r°- � a � 3 = a � ' �' �v � .� �, ev a� � Y "' C �,n � c �► vb° `� � � ! 3NfIWHH : c �"i � �' � � � � LO +, � a� � m � LLI W = � � eo � 3 u � �° _ �, � �G • E mL � � �p . � � � � � �, N � `� � �° � � � � � � a � � � 71dJS�'d '"y �••i L $ p � � Y m � E c � � t E �� ' � � oco �S aai � .e � �'i � � � 0 � c� u �+ u � x 2 ca p � � �,, � • • • • • • � � �N� �y�tZ S� �� '� ��g Fr�F-r� Frl ;..a a� !^ c €�- �. ` L�_�� __U � :W � �p � � Q � Wt1W Wl1Q � � � a � � $ c ' � � o ` � � , � m . .

G ~ Scott Bunin President 5 2 � Si ture of Individual Typed Name Title at� Complsting Application Highland Area Community Council ; Crime Prevention Grant Application May 25, 1990 I. Goal The goal of the Highland Area CocrurNnity Council (HACC) in pursuing a crime prevention grant is to maintain the stable area of Highland Park as a safe community for all ages. II. Pra�ram We intend to use this grant money to hire a crime prevention outreach worker whose �ob it will be to implement and monitor our two ob�ectives: 1) to educate residents throughout the Highland area on crime prevention through a series of forums; and 2) to establish a network of block clubs in a target area. These forums, which shall be developed and publicized with the assistance of Community Education, will address separate topics of interest in our community which shall include, but not be limited to: 1) Personal Safety for Seniors. Outreach work for the forum will be done with organizations that work with seniors--the Jewish Community Center, AARP, Highland Block Nurse Program. 2) PTA/PTO meeting to discuss how to establish safe houses for children, and how to alert and disse�ninate safety and crime information concerning children. This will involve working with the McG ruff progra�n in Highland's 8 elementary schools. 3) Commercial/Business security forum with the Highland Business Association, looking to develop sharing of crime concerns on an ongoing basis. 4) General inventory of a home's present security system (including basic locks and safety practices) and steps to improvement. 5) Self Defense Class in conjunction with Community Education. 6) Optional. In the event of obtaining only partial program flanding, forums will be offered frequently on organizing block clubs and training block leaders to take the initiative in their neighborhoods to develop and maintain crime watch clubs and alley light maintenance. We've identified a target area of approximately 65 blocks (see map) in which we hope to establish 30-40 block clubs during the grant cycle. The outreach worker shall establish these through: 1 ) Working with HACC members to identify, recruit and train leaders in crime prevention block clubs and alley light management. This shall additionally strengthen the District Council through development of leaders and through its network's potential use in other outreach efforts. 2) Write and send crime prevention newsletter to affected areas as, initially, means of education and outreach, then as update and information as network develops. 3) Act as a resource for the Sibley Manor Crime Prevention/Resident Council. (Sibley Manor has 550 units - many are low-income units.) � �i o-//� � III. Heed This pro,ject is needed because the approximately 25,000 residents of Highland are affected by the very same wide spectrum of crimes found throughout the City, yet no. Crime Prevention programs currently exist in this district. Information on neighborhood crimes are not currently disseminated to others who may be affected. Crimes are not reported in the newspaper or covered in any newspaper. The population of Highland includes the largest elderly population in Minnesota, whose changing personal safety needs must be addressed and whose perception of neighborhood safety may not reflect current realities. There has also been an influx of young families, particularly in the project target area, whose children face a different variety of crimes, and whose recently purchased older homes may need upgraded security. Our proposed newsletter, forums, school outreach, and block clubs all address these concerns. In addition, this project will also help all groups become more involved in the c anmunity, which in itself helps in crime prevention. Further, we wish to work on a coordinated basis in crime prevention with neighborhood District Councils, but will not be able to do so without flmding. IV. Man�cement/Evaluation The outreach worker will submit a monthly written report directly to th� District Council Executive Cccrsnittee which shall be responsible for monitoring the worker's activities. Each forum will be evaluated by participating speakers and by attendees. The block club component will be evaluated on the basis of number of block clubs established during the grant cycle. V. Outreach Worker Resnonsibilitv The outreach worker shall be responsible for developing and arranging all forums. He or she shall also be responsible for recruiting, training, and monitoring block workers and for developing a newsletter and publicizing information pertinent to the program. The outreach worker shall also work with District 15 to develop a Southwest Area Crime Prevention Coalition with neighboring Districts 13, 14 and 16 for the purpose of sharing information on a coordinated basis. The worker shall also coordinate efforts with crime prevention officials of the Police, Fire and Planning Departments. VI. Post Grant Manaae�ent The C�ncrunity Organizer shall be responsible for seeing that the block grant program continues by maintaining lists of contact persons, updating such lists when necessary, and occasionally contacting low-activity block clubs to ensure that they stay operational. She shall also maintain coordination efforts with Districts 13, 14 and 16. A.

It has 550 apart— �ents...55 buildings with 10 units in each. The population is currently estimated to be 1,400 persons, the bulk of whom are lov to �oderate inco�e. It is a diverse community, called home by people of many different races and � cultures (see attached ■ap for location). Sibley management has been very welcoming to, and cooperative vith, human service agencies �ho are now using space donated by management to serve Sibley residents. In recent years, crime has been #1 on the list of things Sibley residents rrould like to see addressed in their neigh— borhood. At a public �eeting a few months ago, residents pointed to the following crime—related concerns: auto theft; vandalism; loitering; excessive noise; drug use/selling; speeding; very poor outdoor lighting; the 55 build— ings in Sibley (each has two entrances) have no locks on entrance doors. In the past four to five years, Sibley has developed a staggering 45� annual turnover rate in tenants. Because of this, residents say it is very difficult to know �ho Your neighbors are, and thus, ■uch suspicious behavior goes unreported. Since August of 1989, Sibley has seen: a rape; a sexual assault; a murder; a severe beating; and a stabbing. In addition to the public meeting, other forms of "citizen participation" have taken place. They include: tvo "focus groups" in which a cross section of residents met to discuss their "vision" for Sibley as a neighborhood (both groups ranked crime—related concerns first on a list of priorities; and a survey residents are taking door—to—door to gauge their neighbors' interests (so far aver 120 people have expressed an interest in implementing a crime vatch). • In deciding to start a cri�e vatch, residents set forth one pri�ary objective..."To combat feelings of fear, isolation, and vulnerability and move to�ard individual/neighborhood empowerment by: getting to knov more of their neighbors; organizing on their own behalf regarding safety and crime—related concerns; and participation in crime—prevention strategies." Residents began meeting twice veekly in late March, once per veek to design and establish a Resident Council, and once per reek to design and establish the first per�anent coa�ittee of the Council, a Sibley Crioe Yatch. It has become apparent that starting a Watch in an area the size of Sibley will be very challenging indeed, and that resi— dents �ill need to �ork in partnership �ith other groups to make this successful. Numerous contacts have been, and will continue to be, made with the following: St. Paul Team Police (SW Sector); Neighborhood Assistance Officers (Nb0); area fire department personnel, and others engaged in offering emergency services to Sibley; Sibley sanageoent; area businesses; community service agencies; Hiqhland Area Community Council and others. Residents will develop crime pre— vention strategies in cooperation with Sara Cwayna and Officer Corrine Manthei and others involved in St. Paul's new "neighborhood crime prevention" initiatives. Additional consultation will be provided by Connie Oppelt, vho coordin� ates successful crime watches for three St. Paul apartment complexes. For the summer, residents will operate an ad hoc (temporary) Crime Yatch and work hard to interest others in Sibley's first Resident Council and Cri�e Yatch elec— tions to be held in October. The Crime Watch Committee shall be made up of three types/levels of positions: Cri�e Yatch Coordinator; Block Captains; and Building Representatives. Attached job descriptions give details of responsibilities for these persons. The designated Program Manager �ill be Tim LaFleur of the West Seventh Community Center. Tim is a licensed social vorker who has �orked in many St. Paul neighborhoods for over 12 years. He has seen clients from Sibley for the past three and a half years and vill soon (by July 1) be �orking full time in Sibley. The soccess of this project will be judged on the basis of vhat is happening by June 30, 1991. At that time, Crime Yatch meetings �ill be occurring on a regular basis, citizen patrols will be occurring nightly; other Crime Yatch personnel will be in contact a minimum of twice per week, a �inimum of 27 persons (CW Coordinator, six Block Captains and 20 Building Representatives will be actively engaged in crime prevention efforts. The size of the Sibley neighbor— hood, and the scope and number of activities of the praposed Crime Watch, are such that �e've also applied to NPP for funds for a couple of items, chief among them, badly needed outdoor lights. The private match, neighborhood contribu— tions, and volunteer labor listed in our line item budget on page 2, do not duplicate those listed in our NPP applica— tion, but are another part of the same program. One of the nine activities listed in the NPP applications, is a Crime Yatch Citizen Patrol...residents using �alkie—talkies and a base station to patrol the Sibley neighborhood nightly. 1vo of the primary activities listed on page 2 of this proposal are: establishing Operation I.D. in Sibley (using engraving instruments to place numbers on possessions, which are then registered with police); and establishing a Crime Watch "Phone Tree" (a system enabling residents to quickly gather neighbors as witnesses to crimes in process). �� This application requests funds for only one crime vatch, but a crucial one. We ask for funds to purchase and install locks on all building entrances in Sibley �55 bldgs = 110 locks). oattirtg locks on these doors will make the many long hours volunteers �ill be putting into this project, dramatically more effective. Please honor our request for funds.

You were curious as to why we do not, at present, have locks on entrance doors and better lighting throughout the complex. We cannot deny that Sibley Manor Apartments, Inc. is a profit-making corpora- tion. We also understand that lights and locks are an important contribution to neighborhood security. We genuinely care about the welfare and general well-being of our tenants, and many of them would be happy to attest to this. At the same time, we find ourselves in a difficult position. For the past few years, we have put nearly $100,000 annually back into Sibley. We recently changed 52 unusable garage doors (at a cost of $15,000) , and spent $63,000 replacing building entrance doors. We recently spent over $65,000 in repairing roof drains and roofs, and making a large number of other miscellan- eous repairs. Other improvements are planned. If we had the dollars on hand right now to put in lights and locks, such as those suggested by Mr. LaFleur, we'd likely do it. If we are to do this on our own, it may easily be a few years. For many years, the greater share of our tenants have been low-income, and we've no immediate intention of changing that. As you' ll see on the attached ad, our rental prices are lower than most anywhere in the metro area! We're confident that it would be extremely hard for someone to find homes as nice, as well-kept, and as affordable as our apartments. For us to gather the dollars to make major improvements of the scale Mr. LaFleur is suggesting, we would inevitably have to raise rents. We're attempting to do all we can to make necessary improvements to our buildings without raising rents substantially. There has been no rent increase in one and a half years, and there is none planned for the immediate future. While we do not have money on hand to completely pay for lights and locks, we've made it clear we're willing to sit down with residents and discuss spending dollars we do have, on other things residents see as important. After meeting with Mr. LaFleur earlier today, we commit ourselves to providing the following: MEMBER OF OWNED BY — SIBLEY MANOR, INC.

The Commission carefully considered each of the proposals and the comments from a grants advisory group established in the adopted grant guidelines. The advisory group had representatives from the Police Department, Community Services, PED, and the St. Paul Companies. I have reviewed the Planning Commission's report and support their funding recommendations. In addition, I am recommending full funding for the West Side Citizens Organization proposal on .. cross-cultural education and the integration of cultural diversity into West Side organizations. This innovative proposal addresses the root cause of many crime problems in the City. WSCO's experience with the project may serve later as a model for other efforts in St. Paul. The $17 ,800 request can be funded from the $30,000 that the Planning Commission has recommended rolling over to the next funding cycle, therefore the Planning Commission's funding recommendations for other projects will remain unaffected. You will recall that, as the guidelines were being developed, I suggested a review before a second cycle of crime prevention grants. In light of the Commission's comments on the proposals and the process, I feel that it is even more critical that the Council take a close look at the program and funding procedures. Neighborhood-based crime prevention grants remain a good idea, but changes may be necessary before the next funding cycle. 8�,�6 Prwted ort Recycled Paper y ,� 9�� //{�4 V Council President William Wilson and Members of the City Council June 26, 1990 Page Two At the very least, we must make a commitment to a review process that includes: 1) a longer application and review period to allow more complete development of proposals, 2) inclusion of several neighborhood representatives on the grants advisory group, 3) interviews of project applicants by review committees, and 4) a longer format application form that allows neighborhoods several pages to describe projects in more detail. With these improvements in the process, I feel that the next cycle of Neighborhood Crime Prevention grants will result in continuing successful projects in the City.

We commend the Council for establishing the program; it is obvious that there are needs and there are community organizations ready to address them with organized citizen effort. Proposals came from a variety of neighborhood groups and represented several innovative means to address crime prevention. The quality of the top seven proposals is high and we believe they will have substantial beneficial impact. On the whole, the Commission was disappointed with the quality of the proposals and funding recommendations beyond these seven are difficult. Too many of the proposals simply did not provide basic information required by the guidelines. As a consequence, the recommended funding falls short of the total amount available for the program, and we are in the position of recommending no funding for some areas where we know the need is critical. We believe, however, that it is better to withhold some of the funds and prepare for a new round of applications than to commit funds without a program description that provides a good basis for a contract. This is the first round for the program, and we have all acknowledged that the process would be somewhat experimental. The need for several improvements is clear. First, as you know, in the interest of time, the pre-application process was eliminated. With a pre-application process, technical assistance can be given where it is needed and important issues that need to be resolved in a final application can be addressed. That opportunity to provide some early comment and assistance in the interest of good proposals was sorely missed in this process. � �,`/� President Bill Wilson and Members of the City Council June 11, 1990 Page Two Second, also because of the time factor, the Commission's review was based entirely on the written proposals submitted. There was not time for a committee or advisory group interview with each applicant, a step which often helps considerably to clarify applicants' intentions. This is a deficiency which can be remedied simply another time around. Third, there are groups and individuals with good experience in block organizing for crime prevention, and steps should be taken to encourage sharing of expertise. With some workshops or other provision for training, the quality of proposals could certainly be raised. These possibilities for improvement of the procedure should be taken into account in planning for a new program cycle. The Commission also wishes to suggest that the Council give some consideration to whether or not a competitive grant process is the best approach for distributing this amount of money for this purpose. We are concerned about the factor of relative need for crime prevention activity and the difficulty of taking this into account when evaluating proposals of widely differing quality. An alternative to be considered would be a formula allocation by district. Funds available per district could be equal, or crime levels and population could be factored into a formula. Awards could be based on match raised. Non-district-council groups should still be encouraged to participate, and this might mean some level of competition within districts. Proposal review and comment could still be sought from appropriate city departments and others with expertise, and innovative approaches could still be encouraged. An evaluation process like the current one might apply only to those cases where there was competition at the district level. The Commission will be happy to provide whatever assistance we can in implementation and further development of the Neighborhood Crime Prevention Program.

The funding recommendations on Attachment A are ranked and grouped according to Planning Commission ratings of the proposals. There were clear divisions in the ranking between the three groups of proposals. The first group includes those proposals that fully merit funding. With one exception, the Commission recommends funding at the applicant's requested level. The Davton's Bluff Proposal has been reduced to $19,280 (from $20,000) after removing $720 of ineligible phone expenses from the grant budget. The Commission recommends that the $100 per block organizing "bonus" be eliminated, and that the $2000 for that purpose be used to supplement the proposed salary directly. The Commission notes that the Thomas Dale Block Club Proposal has set block watch organizing goals but has not requested additional staff. The Commission feels that some funds, such as $1520 for t-shirts, might better be applied toward staff time. Some reallocation within the $14,360 budget might be considered in implementation and a final budget. The second group of proposals includes grant requests that the Commission found to be somewhat less competitive. The Riverview Neighborhood Crime Watch, St. Anthony Park Community Council, District 14, and Summit Hill Association proposals seek to fund relatively well-established block club organizations. Not all can be fully funded with available funds. The Commission recommends $10,000 grants to each group. This is an approximate 50� reduction from initial requests, except for Summit Hill Association's $10,000 request. The Commission recommends $9000 funding for the St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association for only the commercial area organizing component of the proposal. The Commission does not recommend funding the deeply subsidized crime prevention hardware. The Commission sees the important need for commercial area crime prevention organizing and activity in the Payne and Arcade areas, as proposed by the East Side Neighborhood Development Co. It does not, however, feel that reliance on business band radio is warranted or advisable. The Commission notes that the mall watch newspaper article included with the grant application refers to phone networks for communication. The Commission encourages ESNDC to submit another proposal in subsequent grant cycles. The Commission is sympathetic to the need for residential area block club organizing in the Summit-Universitv neighborhood. The grant proposal, however, was inadequate, particularly in its lack of detail in the source and contributions of the required match and its rather modest goal to organize 16 block clubs. 9a-//�o The Commission supports the on-going crime prevention and problem properties work of the Riverview Neighborhood Crime Watch and has recommended $10,000 in funding. This funding should be contingent on a substantially revised budget and description of goals that shows exactly what the grant will accomplish and how it will be matched by the neighborhood. It is not sufficient to merely include crime prevention grant funds into a general budget. Funds should not be allocated prior to submission of an acceptable budget. (NOTE: Final budgets and contracts will have to be developed with all grant recipients. Most applicants have submitted budgets that will require little modification. ) The Planning Commission feels that the final group of proposals should not, at least in their present form, be funded. The Planning Commission is disappointed in the quality of most of the proposals -- even many of those in the middle group. In part this is attributable to the new program, a short application time line, and the lack of required pre-applications. Overall, the applicants showed too little regard for the specific criteria and requested information in the guidelines, including stated neighborhood and/or target area needs, a means of program evaluation, detailed neighborhood match information, and working relationships with city departments. The Commission recommends a schedule for future cycles that allows for pre-application review, city-neighborhood ccoperation in grant writing, and an interview session with applicants, before funding recommendations are made. ��,//�c� ATTACHMENT C June 4, 1990 Planning Commission comments on all proposals 1. District 1 Community Council Purpose: Apartment management/tenant organizing Request: $ 8,200 (General Fund) Comments: Coordination with the White Bear-Ruth small area plan and with the East Team Police and police crime prevention is commendable. Geographical targeting is appropriate to the need that exists in the area. Recruiting managers will require a lot of work. If anything, the proposed budget seems low for the stated goals. There is a lot of confusion over the cost of signs throughout the proposals. $200 for signs and other hardware in this proposal probably won't go very far. 2. District 2 Community Council: Apartment Proposal Purpose: Subsidy for crime security hardware for apartments Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The need for apartment management is clear in the neighborhood. Organization should precede other steps, including the hardware purchases requested in the proposal. There are questions about exactly what types of hardware is being considered and how effective it would be given the typical apartment doors and windows. The impact is questionable. The proposed budget is far too general. There are no established target areas or buildings. 3. West Seventh Communitv Center: Sibley Manor Apartments Purpose: Apartment building locks for 55 buildings at Sibley Manor Request: $ 14,825 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal is coordinated with a concurrent NPP proposal for street lights and a CRP grant for providing human services to residents. Turnover and crime statistics show clear problems. The proposal is well developed and specific. Exterior locks can be effective. The main concern is that the contribution from the for-profit apartment management could be higher. While they are contributing to the other grants as well, their hardware match is only $2500 (or 14� of the discounted cost of the locks) . [The citizen patrol aspect was not discussed by the advisory group. It does � not involve any grant funds, and the $700 match is not essential to the proposal. ] 4. East Side Nei�hborhood Development Co. Purpose: Commercial area communication network Request: $20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The general idea is good and could serve as a model for other commercial areas in the city. The need is clear. The problem is the �i�--//� dependence on business band radios when telephones could work as well, at a lower initial cost and lower maintenance costs. If the idea is to be replicated elsewhere in the city, radios will not always be available. Even the attached article on mall watch refers to a telephone network. This proposal also included the highest hourly salary estimate. (Inconsistent salaries are an issue throughout the proposals) . 5. St. Anthonv Park Merchants and Professional Association Purpose: Commercial area communication coordination; hardware Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) -- Comments: The real extent of the need is questionable in comparison to other commercial areas in St. Paul, but the idea is a worthy one, as noted above for the ESNDC proposal. The hardware expenditures with deep subsidies seem unwarranted. ($11,077 in grant money for hardware would be matched with only $3000 in merchant contributions) . The advisory group and Planning Commission recommend only the organizing aspects of the proposal, and notes that $2800 for overhead may be high for that part of the program. Some budget revision will be required for implementation. 6. Aurora/Saint Anthonv Area Block Club Purpose: Beat police patrol for portion of University Avenue Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal requests two beat patrol officers for a 16 week period. The $40,000 total budget for that may seem high but is within reason. On-duty police would be more useful than private security officers since the area is primarily public property. The need is there, but too focused a patrol may simply move the problems a few blocks away. There is some mixed feeling that this is not the best expenditure of funds: it is expensive, but can be effective. The budget, particularly concerning neighborhood match and commitment of funds, will have to be clarified. If beat patrols are a good idea, it may be more appropriate as a police department policy and budget item. 7. St. Paul Communit�Anti-Crack Coalition Purpose: Alley lights and statistical analysis Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The advisory group sees real problems with the possibilities of meaningful statistical analysis of alley light effectiveness in deterring crime. The neighborhood factors are too complex for meaningful analysis. While the police department supports alley and yard lighting, this proposal is not specific about the target area and need for lights. The Commission could support a proposal to install alley lights if a targeted area need is demonstrated, but it sees little need for a statistical study. �v-/i� 8. West Side Citizens Organization Purpose: Multi-cultural awareness Request: $ 17,800 (CDBG) Comments: The proposal does not provide enough information, particularly for a topic as highly charged as cultural awareness. There is too little information on who will conduct seminars, on program content, on citizen participation, or how any evaluation will take place. The proposal and any such project will need far more coordination to be effective. 9. District 2 Community Council Request: $ 14,360 (CDBG) Comments: A block watch effort has been started and should be encouraged to continue. One-hundred blocks may be too ambitious, particularly for a grant of less than $20,000. There is no targeting within the district boundaries. The proposal says that organizing will be throughout the district, yet it notes two police grids in particular need. Need was not adequately presented in the proposal. CRP grant in the area is supportive, though there is some confusion over which CRP grant addresses the neighborhood and which is focused on Roosevelt homes. Overall, a better use of neighborhood resources could have been proposed. 10. Riverview Neighborhood Crime Watch (CDBG) Request: $ 20,000 Comments: The neighborhood has a well thought through approach to crime watch and problem properties monitoring. This is reflected in the proposal, though it is unclear exactly what the crime watch funds will go toward. The proposal is, in effect, their entire work program. Crime prevention grants are simply another revenue source, and the direct match is hard to decipher. Still, the proposal could have been rearranged to fit the guidelines. There is also some question as to who reports to who. Given these problems, there is some reluctance to fund the proposal. However, the Commission does feel that the grant can be well spent. For a final contract, specific program goals would need to be emphasized, and unsecured match funds would have to be verified. 11. Da�ton's Bluff Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) [$19,280] Comments: This is well developed proposal in an area that needs block organizing efforts. Additional neighborhood resources are noted, and coordinator activities are spelled out. The Commission is uncomfortable with the $100/block organizing bonus, and recommends that the $2000 be added to the base salary and 30 blocks be established as a goal. Phone expenses must be deleted. ��-�/� 12. District 6 Planning Council Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This area needs crime prevention activity. The proposal is a very good effort. The community council may need more city staff help than some other organizations. The activity is well focused. $4000 for office supplies seems high, but much of that may be printing and postage. Some attention to youth work would help. The park service project should not count as a match, but it is not needed to meet the 1:1 requirement. The proposal shows a good variety of neighborhood match and participation by more than the neighborhood organization alone. The small target area should lead to some organizing success. 13. Thomas Dale Block Club Association Request: $ 14,360 (CDBG) Comments: A 100 block goal with $14,000 grant seems overly ambitious. The need is there, and the neighborhood has been doing some good work in related activities in the recent past. There is some confusion on crime watch sign costs that needs to be clarified. Note that there is no request for additional staff or salary. (Who will be doing the work?) The budget could be amended to allow more staff work by reallocating some resources. Some targeting could improve the effort. 14, Summit-Universitv Plannint� Council Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) [$19,000] Comments: The need for crime watch activity in the neighborhood is clear to the Commission, but the proposal provides little detail. The request is for a full-time organizer (at a low $6/hour) to organize only 16 blocks. The goals should be higher. There is a serious problem with inadequate detail on the matching services and labor. It is not possible to assess the effectiveness of neighborhood resources or volunteer effort. Phone expenses of $1000 are ineligible. The proposal lacks any targeting within district boundaries. (See the Ramsey Hill Association proposal for a targeted area within the Summit-University area) . 15. Ramsey Hill Association Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This proposal suggests a strong focus on crime watch activity alone, but without a broader block-club scope seen in most other proposals. This proposal may also overlap in geographical area with the planning council's proposal. There is a need in the area. Their 40-block goal is a fair portion of their two targeted police grids. There is a considerable amount of in-kind cash contributions on the part of the organization. �10- /l�� 16. District 10 Communitv Council Request: $ 19,500 (General Fund) [$18,800j Comments: Despite the stated priority focus on crime prevention, the extent of need in the area is not documented. Goals are 10 block clubs in each sub-district. Focus is on crime watch with broader block activities. The proposal does not reflect the full use of resources seen in some other proposals. The subsidized crime prevention hardware should be focused on households in need, and $700 in phone expenses is ineligible. The district wide effort may be too scattered. Working relationships with city departments are not developed. 17. Hamline Midwav Coalition Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The proposal is not well thought out. Boiler-plate crime prevention activity does not explain what will actually be done with the grant in goals or evaluation. There is no evidence of city involvement, though some joint work with WSCO is mentioned. The match is unclear: are those funds secured? Are they geared to crime prevention? 18. St. Anthony Park Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: This grant is to maintain a well-established block club program. While expansion goals are limited, the neighborhood has 100 active block clubs, and community newsletter, and established crime watch communications. The grant proposes to be carried out in conjunction with the St. Anthony Park commercial area grant. The group lists multiple neighborhood resources, and the outreach worker job description makes goals quite clear. As with the District 10 proposal, the subsidized hardware should be for those households most in need. 19. District 13 Consortium Request: $ 20,000 (CDBG) Comments: The proposed activities would help pull District 13 sub-areas together into a joint crime watch coordinating program. Sub-district goals are targeted to each specific area, based on existing activity. Some targeting within sub-districts should be explored. The entire match is "soft" volunteer time -- no hard match -- though the volunteer hours do seem to reflect clearly articulated goals. Staff responsibilities and hours need to be clarified. A more detailed budget will be required before implementation. �_//� 20. District 14 Community Council Request: $ 19,642 (General Fund) Comments: This is a maintenance grant for an established program (as District 12 above) . Activities beyond basic crime watch are commendable and probably help the success of on-going efforts. The goal to add 50 block faces seems appropriate to staff level. Goals that go beyond basic crime prevention may help block clubs remain viable. 21. Highland Area Community Council Request: $ 16,250 (General Fund) Comments: This proposal is actually two separate activities: block organizing in two target areas and community-wide forums. The advisory group did not find the forums to be a good idea and questions how effective general meetings are in crime prevention. The organizing aspects seemed ambitious for the staff time. A general lack of focus was noted. 22. Summit Hill Association Request: $ 10,000 (General Fund) Comments: This is a basic proposal for an on-going block club prograrn in need of organizational support. Goals are specific, and working relationships clear. Note that the request is more modest than many. The new goals seem appropriate to that budget. Neighborhood contributions from outside the organization should be explored. �} v-ll� city of saint paul planning commission resolution file number 90-55 �}e June 8, 1990 � NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM First Cycle Funding Recommendations WHEREAS, The Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program guidelines state that Saint Paul Planning Commission will evaluate grant applications and transmit funding recommendations to the Mayor and City Council; WHEREAS, the Department of Planning and Economic Development has received twenty-two applications for the first program cycle; and WHEREAS, the Housing and Neighborhoods Committee of the Planning Commission has carefully reviewed each of the proposals submitted, has considered the comments of a grants advisory group, and has made recommendations to the Commission concerning the proposals submitted; NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission recommends the funding priorities identified in Attachment A, and makes project and program comments in Attachments B and C; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission recommends that $5,000 be retained for small grants and that the balance of unallocated funds be rolled-over for a Fall, 1990, second cycle application program; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission recommendation be transmitted to the Mayor and City Council for their consideration and action. moved by HIRTE seconded by TREI HEL. — in favor- against 3 . G��-//�� NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM GUIDELINES Adopted by the Saint Paul Planning Commission on April 27, 1990 Adopted, with amendments, by the Saint Paul City Council on May 8, 1990 ��-/�� NEIGHBORHOOD CRIME PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM GUIDELINES May 8, 1990 I. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Purpose: The Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program is designed to help neighborhood non-profit groups develop programs that reduce crime. Activities may include, but are not limited to, organizing and expanding block club networks for the purpose of neighborhood stabilization. While the primary focus of the program is crime prevention, this is a flexible, multi-use program that recognizes that additional neighborhood activities enhance crime prevention efforts. Supportive activities are allowed under the program. Authorization. Term: The grant program is funded by a 1990 City budget allocation of $200,000. These guidelines are to be effective for this first-year pilot program. At the end of one year, pending future budget allocations, these guidelines will be reviewed and amended as necessary. II. FUNDING Grant Limits: Program grants are available for up to $20,000 each. There is no minimum grant limit, (but see small grants section following) . Grants will be awarded on a competitive basis. In order to build and expand crime prevention activity throughout the city, no more than $40,000 will be awarded within any single community planning district. In some instances, the Planning Commission may recommend changes in a proposed budget. If any funds remain unallocated, a second grant cycle will be held in the fall of 1990. Funds must be spent by June 31, 1991. Funding will be on a reimbursement basis due to CDBG funding source requirements. To assist individual block-clubs and organizations needing small grants, $5,000 will be set aside, and an additional $5,000 will be put in contingency. These grants are intended for postage, supplies, crimewatch signs, and other purposes directly related to neighborhood crime prevention. The maximum amount of any small grant shall be $500. No match will be required for these grants. Staff in the Department of Planning and Economic Development will work with a crime prevention Grant Advisory Committee (including representatives from the Police Department, Department of Community Services, and a neighborhood representative) to determine the small grant awards. A separate application form for small grants is enclosed. Applications are due on May 25, 1990. Any unallocated funds will revert to the larger grant program to be awarded this grant cycle. 1 gp,//�° Eligible Expenses include direct expenses related to establishing and maintaining crime prevention activity (such as staff salary and � benefits) , education, communications (supplies, production costs, delivery costs, mileage reimbursement, postage) , and subsidies for the purchase of crime prevention hardware (fixed asset improvements to homes and businesses) . Ineligible Expenses include vehicles, equipment purchases, office space rent, phone, food, drinks, and entertainment. (See neighborhood contributions section below) . Eligible Areas include all seventeen community planning districts. Eligible Applicants include district councils, residential block club organizations, and other neighborhood-based non-profit organizations. Neighborhood Contributions: Each proposal must be matched with neighborhood contributions at a minimum 1:1 ratio. Contributions must be directly related to the proposed activities and must be contributed during the period following initial application through the duration of the grant. Contributions may include direct financial resources such as supplies and foundation grants, equipment, and in-kind services including volunteer labor. The value of volunteer labor shall be $10 per hour. Time spent in meetings directly and exclusively related to the implementation of neighborhood crime prevention activities may be counted as volunteer labor, up to a maximum of 50� of the total neighborhood match. Time spent in general meetings of the organization shall not be counted. Al1 volunteer labor, including time in meetings, must be documented in writing. III. APPLICATION Process: Pre-applications are encouraged but not required. Pre-applications will be accepted until May 11. The pre-application gives staff time to clarify and/or correct any issues before final applications are submitted. Final applications are due May 25, 1990. No late applications will be accepted. Contents: Applications must contain the following: 1. A brief description of the project, including goals, objectives, activities. 2. A budget including how program funds will be spent and an estimate of neighborhood contributions including volunteer labor. 3. If the proposal includes salary for staff, a statement of staff responsibility, including to whom the staff reports. 4. The name of the organization that will implement the program. 5. A map of the proposed project target area. 6. A time schedule for the project. � 7. A description of how the program will be evaluated. Application forms for both parts of this grant program are attached. Final applications must be received no later than 4:00 p.m. on May 25, 1990. 2 9v�//�d IV. SELECTION L Selection Process: The selection process is competitive. The number of pro�ects funded will depend on the quality of the proposals and available resources. Applicant groups should contact their appropriate district council and attempt to coordinate proposals within a district. District councils will be asked to submit comments to PED regarding the proposals and how they meet district goals and objectives. The Planning Commission, working with a Grants Advisory Committee from the Police Department, the Department of Community Services, the Department of Planning and Economic Development, neighborhoods, and other appropriate agencies, will review and rate the applications and identify those proposals which it thinks should be funded. The Planning Commission recommendations will be sent to the Mayor and City Council for final approval. It is the intent that The City Council will make final funding decisions by June 30. Small grant applications will be reviewed for compliance with the program purpose and selection criteria. In the event that small grant requests exceed the initial $5,000 allocated in the program, the Grants Advisory Committee will recommend to the City Council the projects to be funded, not to exceed a total of $10,000. Applications are due on May 25, 1990. Selection Criteria: Selection will be based on overall program goals and anticipated accomplishments. The program is looking for: - how projects relate to stated neighborhood needs - effective use of grant funds with existing neighborhood resources - the extent to which volunteer labor is "leveraged" - broad-based citizen participation - District Council comment and support - working relationships with appropriate city departments, including Police and Community Services - target area need for proposed activities V. PROJECT RESPONSIBILITY Contract: For approved projects, the final application and budget will serve as the basis for a contract between the City of St. Paul and the applicant. PED will develop contracts appropriate to the projects, funding source requirements, and liability insurance requirements. Status Reports: Summary status reports will be due January 15, 1991, and within thirty days of the completion of the project. Evaluation Forum: Grant recipients will be expected to attend a forum at or near the end of the project cycle in order to share experiences. This first cycle is an experimental program. Assessment of funded projects is important to continued success of the program. 3 . q�-��/l� Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program Use this format for both the Planning Division pre-application and final Dept. of Planning and Economic Development application. 25 West Fourth Street St. Paul, Minnesota 55102 (612) 228-3371 FINAL APPLICATION DUE: MAY 25, 1990 APPLICATION Please type all responses Group or Organization Submitting Application Name: Telephone: Address: Contact Person: Daytime Phone: Project Description: (Limit this description to one page!)

St. Paul Police Department Crime Prevention Pilot Program �; ; Community � Ann Cieslak Organizer May 24, 1990 Signatur of Individual Typed Name Title Date Completing Application � District 1 Project Description Goal : The goal of this project is to improve neighborhood livability. The project will address � issues,including crime prevention and community building, targeting the over 1,000 units of multi-family residences in the area of District 1,north of Interstate 94,bounded roughly by White Bear Avenue,Third Street and McKnight Road. Objectives: The project will have two main objectives: to create an active apartment managers association and to form block clubs in the apartrnent complexes on a floor-by-floor basis (approximately 6-12 units per club).The purpose of the apartrnent manager association will be to develop strategies to attract tenants who pay rent on time,do not destroy property and do not engage in criminal activity . Training to deal with problem tenants will be included. The block clubs' aim will be to reduce the opportunity for crime and to increase the social cohesion of the apartrnent dwellers by empowering residents to become involved with their neighbors, by teaching crime prevention strategies, and by encouraging tenant initiative and responsibiliry. Need : This project will be undertaken in rnnjunction with the development of a Small Area Plan for the White Bear-Ruth neighborhood, begun in May, 1990 by the St. Paul Planning Commission. The plan was initiated at the request of the District 1 Community Council in response to concern about the density of residential development in the area. The task force named to develop this plan will serve as a resource for this project. (Small area plan documents attached). This project will directly affect the needs of this neighborhood as identified in the District Council request for a small area plan. Crime statistics support the need for crime prevention activities in this area (grid 119). Grid 119 had 1815 police calls from January 1989 to March 1990, more than double the number in the grid immediately to the west(grid 118-805 calls). Grid 119 had 361 total offenses in 1989 and ranked 21 from the top out of 189 grids within the city. Coordination:This project will work in cooperation with the East Team Police and Sara Cwayna of the Police Department's Crime Prevention Pilot Program. Cwayna will develop block clubs in the single family blocks and will share information and strategies with this project. Both projects will work in tandem to develop strategies to target livability issues. Other liasions will be formed with the Fire Department and Building Inspectors. Merrick Community Services has agreed to participate in addressing human service needs. Others participating will be the Conway/Van Dyke Block Club and the Concerned Neighbors Association whose members presently work on livability issues.The manager of the Hazelwood Apartments has agreed to participate and to encourage the involvment of other managers. District 1 News will be one method used to publicize the project. Staff: A staff person will be hired to manag�this program. Staff will initiate the manager's assoc�ation,organize block clubs within the a�a�rtment buildings,monitor crime data,respond to requests,publicize the program,coordinate a�nd mmmunicate with the East Team Police and the Crime Prevention coordinator and other appropriate city departments. Staff will report to the District 1 Community Organizer. The District 1 Community Council will have oversight responsibility. Evaluation will be based upon objective criteria,including the creation of the apartment managers' association,the number of complexes represented,the number of blocic dubs formed,the number of police calls,and crime statistics. Subjective criteria will be developed based upon the Small Area Plan recommendatiuns. �v- //�� District 1 Budget Line Item Request: Personnel 15 hours per week/48 weeks $6,800.00 Communication postage,office supplies, mpying, mileage reimbursement $1,200.00 Neighborhood Watch Signs,other hardware $200.00 Total Request $ 8,200.00 Neighborhood Match Direct Resources: $4,160.00 District 1 Community Council: Personnel-includes community organizer time in July for program development, initial coordination and outreach, staff support in subsequent months for supervision,fund administration, coordination and secretarial service $2,660.00 District 1 News: computer time,District 1 News space,editor support for mmmunication, publicity and flyer production $1,500.00 ��d; $9,960.00 Volunteer labor($10.00 per hour): Building Manager's Association 3 hours/ month- 12 members- 11 meetings $3,960.00 Block Clubs 15 clubs-8 members each-5 hours each $6,000.00 ToEal Match $14,120.00 � • � � • • - � �1.

On behalf of the Planning Commission, I would like to ask that the District Council appoint representatives to a small area plan task force for this planning process. As you know, the District Council and neighborhood residents have been concerned about the density of residential development in this area. The study will focus on appropriate land uses for remaining underdeveloped properties that are zoned for multi-family use. A preliminary list of other issues that may benefit from analysis as part of this small area plan include: 1) vacant, single-family zoned residential land along Fremont Ave. ; 2) development of new and maintenance of existing commercial development; 3) stormwater drainage problems; 4) the need for sidewalks; and 5) upkeep of residential properties. The Land Use Committee of the Planning Commission has recommended the attached resolution for approval by the full Commission at its next meeting on April 13th. The resolution (which I anticipate will be approved as presented) appoints Gladys Morton of the Planning Commission to the small area plan task force and asks that the District Council appoint the remaining members to include balanced representation from the following interest groups: 1) single-family homeowners; 2) owners of property that may be rezoned; 3) apartment owners; 4) apartment renters; 5) area business owners; 6) neighborhood elementary schools; and 7) the District 1 Council. I have assigned Donna Drummond from the Planning Division staff to provide assistance to the small area plan task force. She has done some preliminary work and would like to begin working with the task force in late April or early May. Z envision that the task force will need to meet 3 or 4 times in May and June to develop its recommendations for consideration by the Planning Commission. �v-�/� Mr. Jay Fonkert March 30, 1990 Page Two Please call me (228-3380) if you have any questions or concerns you would like to discuss further at this point.

By improving the security of both units and build- ings, we F�ope to reduce rates or burglary and crimes committed and encourdged by tl�e entry of unauthorized persons to buildings. We hope then to encourage occupancy by stable lony-term resider►ts. This project I�as two primary goals: Reduce crime in multi-family buildings. Increase occupancy rate and increase length-of-stay of tenants. These will be accomplished by conductiny building security audits and pT-oviding matching funds to apartment owners on a one-to-one basis for the installation of devices to increase security and tenent accountability for entry. Secur-ity audits will be defined as a review by the police or qualified building prufessionals. Tr�ere is no "certificatior�" for this category of Nurk. We will concentrate improvements to two or three complexes depending on size and costs of improvements. Eligible improvements for the proyram will be: Locking devices, Window screens for lower level apartments, Security doors, Call-box systems. Apartment complexes will be selected on the basis of the following. The District 2 Community Council will rr�ake the final selection. --Willingness of owners to make a commitment to improve overall quality of building in addition to making security in�provements. Butlding must meet all immediate healtf� and safety requirements. --Wiilingness of owner to commit to meet miniR►um tenant screening and selection criteria as agreed to by managers' association. --Likelihood of amount of impr-ovements which can be afforded under this program having maximum effect in deter-ring crime. Estimate of "most bang for the buck" to be done by Police Department or other outside qualified security auditor. --Participation of manager/owner in neighborhoud efforts including crime watch organizxation and Rbnagers �ssociatior�. --Eligibility for and participatian in CRP project. At least two seperate complexes will be assisted with program funds. Organizing of tenant crime-watct� and providing fur uther physical improvements to buildings will be accomplisF�ed alangside this program. These efforts will be coordinated through District 2 and funded with otf�er sources.

The program will be coordinated with two existing and one potential (requested under this same funding source) programs. The police Department' s crime prevention office on the East Side (Sara Cwayna) will assist with start-up or support of existing block watch efforts. The East Area Resident Unity Project (CRP funded through D2CC) is working in low-income apartment areas and will both coordinate staff effort and assist in identifying specific resident security needs if buildings selected are CRP eligible. Under the existing D2CC block contact program, residents will be encouraged to participate in community activities. Funds are currently being sought to continue this program.

This project will expand District Z's fledylin_y Block Contact network by 100. This network is a major coirrnunity-L,uilding effort which will result in lung term crime preventfun and crime reductian. The proJect will also provide specific training to Block Contacts in crime prevention techniques and er►able tl�rse v��lunteers to dissemtnate crime prevention information and organize neigl��bors in crime prevention efforts. Police grids with tf�e highest crime rafies (e.g. , grids 38 and 57) particularly need to be recruited for crime prevention programs. The Bluck Contact network is being established to enable the District 2 Community Council to address a series of tF�reats to the stability of our cortxnunity, including crime and tl�e perception thereof. In single family areas, Block Contacts are on a block or block face; in apartment areas, they are in a building or apartment complex. District 2 is a very large community; with a population of 25,000 it is significantly larger than most City planning districts. Our present neighbor- hood communications through community newspapers. fliers, and meetings are acceptable wt�en the area is facing rrajor crises or controversial decisions. but are not as effective as a long-term means of community-building. Dist- rict 2 recently began the Block Contact program and has developed some aspects of a communications network through lawn sign volunteers, block clubs, and liaison work with the East Side Apartment Managers, Roosevelt Resident Cuun- cil , churches, PTAs and other groups in the community. In addition, in some areas there are also very informal social networks of residents. We would like to identify new constituencies and groups currently under- served and underrepresented by District 2 (such as apartment residents and minartty persons) , and use the Block Contact network to encourage tt�ese people into the process. The Resident Unity Project, for which this grant will provide additional support, will provide a maJor means of organizing Nithin apartment areas and witliir► the Sautt�east Asian populatfon. We would like to increase the eFfectiveness of our two-way Block Contact network by developing and sending a newsletter on a regular, at least monthly basis to block contacts and to develop and provide training opportunities for them to becane effective at various aspects of corrxr�unity-building, including crimewatch techniques. This project addresses stated neighboi-t�ood needs. The emphasis of this proposa 1 i s to serve as rtiucF� of that corr�r�un i ty as poss i b i e rather than concen- trating our efforts on creating 10 or 20 block clubs. Many of the block contacts serving as liaison volunteers in this program will work through other efforts such as that operated by ttie Police Oepartment to organize their blocks more specifically for crime prevention. The . project builds on efforts we have begun and is coordinated with our �recently-awarded East Area Resident Unity CRP program and with the Police Department's block club organization program. ThSs project leverages volunteer labor extensively, the labor of indivi- dusl block contact volunteers lir�king thetr netgt�bors with commun(ty activi- ties including crime-fighting efforts. It will be operated and is supported by the District 2 Community Council to provide for broad-based citizen parti- cipation and volunteerism. _ Staff involved wauld be employed by the Distrtct 2 Community Council end supervised pursuant to established procedures. Stdff involved through the CRP program will serve according t� tt�e guidelines cited in the exececuted CRP �contract. The program is monitored and evaluated by the District's Communica- tions Cort►mittee, which will coordinate with the Resident Unity Project Commit- tee and which is responsible to tl�e elected Board of Directors.

Schiller, Director Date Pru.i�ct Des�.ripti�n: � ThE history of the �Test- Side is th�xt of a refuge and settlement graunds dating back to the 1800s when French, German, Irish and Jewish immigrants first settled here. They were followed by His�anics, St,�rians, Lebanese, Scandinavian�, African Americans and American Indian�. The most recent settlers of the 1980s and '90� are '3rutheast Asians who have fled from their war-torn homel�inds. The Wes� �ide is multi-cultur$1 which is a patential strength af the nei�hk�orh�od, but it is also a source of community devisi�reness. Currently, cultural diversity is not only an untapped resaurce, but is e srurce af racial tensions that motivate acts af violence against pe�ple k�ecause of the colar of their skin and traditions/customs that varT,� fram the "norm". The purpose of this project is cross-cultural education and the inGegratian of cultural diversity ir�to ��est. Side organiaatiar�s in or��r ta, first, prevent and reduce covert and overt actv of raci�m/crime, and secondly, to build upon the strengths of each culture as a me�n� to strengthen the community as a whole.

PROJECT OPPORTUNITY: But a model exists in the Mall Watch Program (which is described in the attached article) for organizing businesses in shopping malls into telephone networks to combat shoplifting, bad checks, and other disruptive and criminal behavior. With business-band radio providing dedicated, two-way, group communication capabilities, the technology now exists for applying this model to neighborhood commercial strips. And with anticipated purchases of new radio equipment in the Saint Paul Fire and Police Departments, a source of donated radios exists with which to initiate a pilot program on a neighborhood commercial strip in great need of increased security. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Saint Paul Police Department intends to replace 15 or 20 of its hand-held portable radio units and purchase new equipment from Motorola. Motorola has offered to give the Police Department a trade-in on these units (which it would not normally do) , to recrystal them, and to donate them to the East Side Neighborhood Development Company, which would then obtain a Business Band Radio license from the FCC. ESNDC would then hire a coordinator to establish the Business Security Network Program (or BISNET, for short) along the lines of the Mall Watch program. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: To reduce the economic loss to the business community from crime, to significantly improve the safety of the commercial strips, and to accelerate the organization of the Payne Arcade business community. PROJECT ACTIVITIES: * Educate the business community about the Program. * Hire a program coordinator. * Design BISNET protocols and procedures for operating the system in cooperation with the District 5 Block Watch Programs and the Block Club Coordinator in the Saint Paul Police Department. * Solicit volunteers from the business community willing to become members of the BISNET Program and train them in the use of the equipment. * Monitor the daily use of the BISNET Program, supervise the use of the equipment, maintain the equipment, and evaluate its effectiveness. MANAGEMENT AND EVAL�ATION: The BISNET Pcogram would be managed by a Program Coordinator, who would be hired and supervised by the Executive Director of the East Side Neighborhood Development Company which is working in close cooperation with the Payne-Arcade Business Association. The Program Coordinator would have to have skills in organizing and training volunteers, communicating with a wide range of business and community people, operating and maintaining a complex system, and the ability to respond quickly, appropriately, and tactfully to sometimes sensitive situations. The success of the program should be measurable by the numbers of security alerts and the number of apprehensions and by a decrease in commercial losses that can be documented by a questionnaire circulated to the business community at the end of the program year. Based on this questionnaire and police statistics, the Program Coordinator will prepare a written evaluation of the BISNET Program. . 9v—//�a , BISNET: THE �USINESS SECURITY NETWORK PROGRAM GRANT PRIVATE MATCH COST CATEGORY REQUEST MATCH SOURCE Program Coordinator($15/hr, 20 hrs/wk) $15,600 $0 Office facilities, supplies, &printing 54,400 $0 Insurance for system SO $250 Business or foundation donations.

DIVISION OF NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELOPMENT JAMES SCHEIBEL 25 West Fourth Street,Saint Paul, Minnesota 55112 MAYOR 612-228-3200 May 25, 1990 Mr. Tom Harvey Department of Planning and Economic Development llth Floor, City Hall Annex 25 W. 4th Street Saint Paul, MN 55102 Dear Tom: Attached is a grant application from the East Side Neighborhood Development Company for the new Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program which you are administering. While this project is contingent on a couple of factors that are not at this time nailed down, I believe that it represents a tremendous opportunity for developing a new approach to community crime prevention, not only on the commercial strip, but in residential areas as well. The contingencies are two: * The first is that though the Saint Paul Police Department has budgeted for replacing 24 hand-held radio units and 1 repeater base station this year, that purchase hinges on where the budgetary cutbacks will ultimately fall. You should also know that the Fire Department is budgeting for replacing about the same number of portable radios in the first quarter of 1991, so that if this experiment is funded, and if it proves successful, the opportunity exists for replicating it with additional recycled equipment in another neighborhood next year. As an aside, there is another small benefit to the City for recycling its radio equipment in this way, and that is that Motorola is willing to give the City some trade-in value which it would ordinarily not allow. �* The second contingency is that Motorola has not finalized what it is willing to offer as part of the package. I am assuming that they will ultimately be willing to recrystal the units which is needed to give them another frequency which will not conflict with existing Police channels, and that they will be willing to donate recharging units as well. Since this possibility of a trade-in and donation of Police Department equipment was presented just yesterday, it has not been possible to finalize the arrangements and to write down the understandings of the various parties. I expect to be able to resolve most of these uncertainties in the next week or so, and I will keep you informed of my progress. If such an arrangement can be worked out, I am confident that the BISNET Program sketched out in broad brush strokes here can have a significant impact on improving the Payne and Arcade business communities which are currently at such risk.

The District 6 land Use Plan describes the area as a "sporatic mixture of residential and industrial use...an intermix throughout the area making it . visally unattractive." This type of land use configuration contributes to many other difficulties, including a � significant amamt of crime. The District 6 Plan states that "one of the highest concerns expressed in District 6 is crime...the largest increases in crime, nearly 443�, have been in the Northeast/Center of our district" which includes the Mackubin/Front area. "The rrost frequent violations are crimes against property." The latter plan also identifies the lack of and subsequent need for a "cormiunity-based crime prevention program Created in close cooperation with district citizens and police officials." Residents in the area are concerned, yet distraught by the many difficu�ties and few successes their crnmmity has encamtered. Recen ly, they have experienced limited success with the danolition of several vacant industrial � buildings under the nusiance ordinance; buildings that have stood unoccupied as a monunent for repeated acts of vandelism for nearly tv�ro decades. This success has created some manentun, but many issues rgnain unchallenc�i. Marydale Park is a neighborhood park located in the Mackubin/Front district. For years, this site has also been plagued by vandelism; acting as a gathering ground for �mdesirables/undesirable behavior. Loeb Lake is situated in the heart of Marydale Park. This man-�nade lake has also created much controversy. Maintained by the DNR, Loeb Lake has been the site for two accidential drownings of young children; the rrost recent occuring last fall. The corrmunity has requested that safety measures be taken to ensure the safety of Marydale Park/Lceb Lake, but to no avail. lhe housing condition is another prevalent concern in the area. The 1980 Census indicates that in Census Tract 308 and 313, which represent Mackubin/Front, nearly 50% of the housing stock was built prior to 1939; and subse- quently, there exists a need to focus on housing rehabilitiation. The 1980 Census data also identifies this area as having a mixture of low and moderate incane levels. Census Tract 308 is carprised of 4,415 persons with a median incane of $15,775 and 25.T� of the resicietns are below 200'� of poverty level. Census Tract 313 is c�rr�ris�ci of 2,083 persons with a median incane of $13,073 and 36% of the residents are below 2(X�'� of poverty level. The incane level of the neighborhood may be a contributing factor to the lack of pursuance of housing maintenence/ rehabilitation programs. The D6PC in conjunction with City Council, Eviro�rnental Health and St. Paul Housing Rehab. Offi�e carQleted a "mini-sweep" this past spring to began to address this issue. The "s�" ?ncamassed code enfo�r.e�r�ent with rehabilitation inforn�ation and specialized 4% laan program. In a few hours, we noted 66 exterior housing code violations and distrib�rted hundred's of packets of housing information. The "sweep" was a beginning, a band-aid; not the cure. An opportunity exists to further involve residents in programs geared to their afford- ability level.

The program h�ill provide a systematic, proven rr�ttad of block club forniation/retention; instituting a block by block process based on the St. Paul Police Dept.'s Crime Prevention Unit models and the Take Back Your Block Publication marketed by Dayton's Bluff M-IS. Our goal is to create in excess of 30 active block clubs; provide up to 40 matching grants for crime prevention hardware; host 3-4 neighborhood operated events to utilize Marydale Park--pr�anote a sense of comn.mity; refer 30 households to housing rehabilitation programs through the St. Paul Hane Loan Fund and Neigh. Energy Consortiun and address the needs of the corrrriunity in overseeeing the neccessary instal- lation of safety/precautionary devices in the Park. In addition, block clubs will serve to pranote/increase par- ticipation in other programs such as curbside recycling and act as a referral source to agencies such as the N.E. Medical Center, NEAR, Block Nurse Pr�ogr�n and Capitol Carmmity Services. In order to accarplish our goals, the D6PC will continue to utilize the services and strerx�tF�en our relationship with several city departrnents and organizations including: Dept. of Public Works, Parks & Rec., Planning and Econ. Develc�nent, DNR, St. Paul Home Loan Fund, NN GREEN, National A�son. of Conservation and Service Core, ParkWatch, Neigh. Energy Consortiun and the St. Paul Police Dept. Currently, Police Officer Archie Smith is an official representative and active participant in our district council. District 6 has also v�rked well with other units within the dept. including Officer Friendly (Sgt. Thcmas) and NAO's. District 6 believes that the challer�ges faced by the said area are not insurTrountable, but do warrant the attention of a 3/4 time block club organizer who will purpue the issues identified with residents/business owners and agencies Wit�h systenatic perserverance; coordinate/facilitate crime prevention/block club activities; refer and pranote housing rehab. and other identified programs as w�ell as record and submit required docunentation. The block club organizer will be responsible to the Pirmary Camiunity Organizer and to the D6PC Board. The Council will appoint a resident carmittee to oversee the execution of objectives as derronstrated with our cur ent U-R,4P(S) and our NPP; both of which rely heavily on volunteer labor/participation.

Although this is the most reliable information provided at the time of this writing, we recognize that the cost of each sign is yet to be determined. We will adapt our strategy to accomodate the final cost determination of the signs, within a dollar limit of $3,350. Funding guidelines require that only SOA of the neighborhood match be provided through volunteer labor, a limit of $7,180. Our neighborhood match of $16,895, less our volunteer labor, �9,700, leaves a match balance of �7,195, an amount which complies with guideline boundaries. .i n.��.- • ..!'' � P -- � , , ti...�. `�_.� �� yi -' . �,^ �� S'sc nr�.: / ��/.. �. :� '� �tt�_C�_ ••, .

Pauline President 5-25-90 Signatu e of Individual � Typed Name Title Date Completing Application i We are proposing to fund two Saint Paul Police officers on an overtime basis to patrol the target area for five days a week, eight hours each day, from July 1 through October 19, 1990. The hours of the day and days of the week the of.ficers work will be determined by current crime data, input from the community and the Saint Paul Police Department. The Saint Paul Police Department would retain management rights over the police officers and would, in fact, provide supervisory services as needed. The Saint Paul Police Department has agreed to supply any equipment necessary to the operation. C� � -l/1�0 We have for 18 years been presented with vagrance, loitering, drunkenness, indecent exposure and panhandling in the target areas mentioned in the proposal. There is a liquor store on the corner of St. Albans Street and University Avenue and many alcoholics seem to loiter either on street corners or in the alley in close proximity to it. Because of the pornography at the Faust and Flick and nude dancing at the Belmont Club; the majority of the property adjacent to both alleys are rental in need of proper management and care. Some of these houses are utilized as havens for vagrants (Flop houses) . our goal is to eliminate vagrancy, loitering, panhandling, public drinking, loud profanity, uninating in the streets and alleys from this target area. Also, as of the past few years narcotic traffic and minor gang infiltration has been evident. We need beat police from 8:00 a.m. to 8: 00 p.m. , Monday - Saturday. These beat police will stringently enforce all laws as it applies to disrespectful and disruptive, immoral, and illegal activity in this target area. Presently, Olson Brothers liquor store employ off duty police to control the loitering on its property and the police department make loiterers disburse on the corners and in the alley, but that only happens as long as the police are there. When residents approach the Vagrants (Mrs. Goodlow, 681 Aurora Ave. , - Cheryl Allen, 649 Aurora Ave. , -Graham Butler, 689 Aurora Ave. , - Ronald W. Pauline, 749 Aurora Ave. ) they usually disburse but when you leave they are right back. Our block club owns 675 Aurora Avenue, located directly behind the liquor store; it's newly renovated and rented to a respectful family. We've been working with the Code enforcement departments as to cleaning up properties through the use of Summary abatements. We have one house at 639 Aurora Avenue that we have monitored the traffic of Vagrants and there have been numerous police calls. One of our priorities is to address this property in a stringent manner, (i.e. - nuisance house) . The businesses are being hurt tremendously because of the activities in the area because many people do not like to be in a negative atmosphere as exists now. We will monitor this project weekly as to the disposition of various laws to discourage people from viewing this area as a desirable place to loiter and present us with disrespectful and disruptive behavior. 1. Number of arrests 2. Dispursment of undesirables 3 . Disposition of cases a. City Attorney's office b. Judges Page Two The Faust Theatre is scheduled to be torn down this summer and we (ASA) will beautify that lot as well as the Flick lot with flowers, trees, shrubbery, and sod. Twin City Used Appliance will beautify its parking lot with flowers and landscaping. We will maintain the beautification on the corners (West) of University and Dale and will encourage businesses and residents to clean and beautify their property in the target area. 90-il�� ..°"* °• CITY OF SAINT PAUL .� ': DEPARTMENT OF POLICE o a � �� Wm.W.McCutcheon,Chief of Police • � 100 East Eleventh Street ,��.

We agree with you that constant pressure by a visible law enforcement officer is necessary to move the loitering, drunkedness, littering and possible criminal behaviors which are being exhibited by a number of people congregating near the Olson Bros. liquor store. In the event the police department is not willing to allocate the resources without additional funding, we would be willing to provide some financial support. The Bank has experienced five (5) breakins to automobiles in our parking lot in the last two (2) months. In addition, we have hired a guard ourselves to escort our employees to and from work each day. We hope the continual presence of a police officer would help to reduce the crime rate in the immediate vicinity.

NEED FOR BLOCR CLUB ORGANIZATION As discussion has arisen over topics of concern at District 10 meetings, repeatedlp, community residents have indicated a strong interest in the organization of block clubs as a positive way to develop a networking of neighbors to develop a stronger community base and disseminate information about resources apppropriately. Interest has arisen, specifically around crime prevention. In the past, several informal cri.me watch block clubs had been formed, but their on—going existence has been difficult to maintain without formal support and resources. District 10 completed a prioritized Long Range Plan with the community and the formation of block clubs was ranked as a top priority. This has been included in the 1990 goals and objectives of the District 10 Community Council. The impact of growing numbers of individuals attending the State Fair, and the on—going participation in Como Park itself has resulted in an encroachment into the residential neighborhood, bringing with it crime, litter, traffic, parking, noise and occasional property damage. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED BLOCRWORKER PROGRAM Our intent is to form 'COMO NEIGHBORHOOD CONNECTIONS" a block worker program unique in that it will be designed to be multi—focused to address such issues as crime prevention, senior concerns, safety, recycling, as well as issues particular to specific blocks. The concept of this program is to encourage neighbors to exchange information and to offer help to each other on an informal basis. With a blockworker program, residents develop a sense of shared community within a neighborhood, trust is built among neighbors as well as improved communications on a grassroots level. FIRST YEAR GOALS AND OBJECTIVES The goals of this project are; empowerment of residents to gain greater control over their lives, increased resident involvement in District 10 and other activities within the community, encourage and identify new leadership, encouragement of resident interaction with various city departments, participation in informational crime prevention meetings as well as formation of block clubs and establishment of matching fund grant program for crime prevention hardware and signs to residents and businesses. During the first year, 30 block clubs will be formed 10 in each of the subdistricts. Captains will be identified and trained. Such start up costs as development of resource and information materials, publicity and training will be absorbed in the original funding. On—going funds will be solicited inpart from foundation grants, resident and business contributions, fundraisers and in—kind contributions. SUPERVISION AND MANAGII�IENT The treasurer of the District 10 Community Council will be responsible for the fiscal record keeping of the project. The program will operate under the supervisory framework of an Advisory Council, under the general direction of the Community Council. This Advisory Coucil will help develop long range goals and set direction for the program. They will alo make regular reports to the District Council and evaluate the program on an ongoing basis. Staff will be supervised by the Community Organizer. The staff position funded by this grant will be a 1/2 time position with limited benefits. The person will be employed by the District Council. STAFF RESPONSIBILITIES Train blockworkers and captains for crime watch, operation ID and related crime prevention efforts. Form 30 block clubs in the community as a first year goal. Establish a matching—fund grant program for residents to purchase crime prevention hardware. Expand the use of security hardware and signs in area businesses. Develop a newsletter to network community. Do community outreach� Report to Advisory Council and assist in development of program and future planning. Identify other issues and needs that should be incorporated into the program. �d ��4a � FIRST YEAR BUDGET BLOCKWORKER PROGRAM FOR DISTRICT 10 PERSONNEL Salary $8.00 R 20 hours % 52 weeks $8,400 FICA 700 Umemployment Fund 100 Workers Compensation 200 Travel and Staff Training 700 Clerical Support 600 PERSONNEL TOTAL 10 700 $10,700 PROGRAM MATERIAL Publicity $1,400 Postage 500 Information & Resource Material 700 Printing 1,000 Telephone 700 Supplies 500 Crime Prevention Hardware 2,500 Crime Watch Signs 1 500 PROGRAM MATERIAL TOTAL 8,800 8.800 INKIND NEIGHBORHOOD Office Space (Lyngblomsten Senior Center @ $300 month R 12 months) $3,600 Residents share of 1:1 match on prevention hardware 2,500 Supervisor/Admininstrative support (@ $12 per hour R 3 hr a week R 52 weeks) 1,872 Office equipment purchase (desk, chair, file cabinets, telephone� table) 1,500 Volunteer match hours (30 block captains @ $10 per hour % 2 hr month R 12 months) 7,200 Volunteer match hours (resident participant @ $10 hr R 2 hr X 10 per club (300 hours) 6,000 TOTAL NEIGHBORHOOD CONTRIBUTIONS 22 672 TOTAL CRIME BLOCKWORKER PROGRAM 42,172 TOTAL NEIGHBORHOOD CONTRIBUTIONS 22,672 PERSONNEL & PROGRAM TOTAL 19,500 TOTAL AMOUNT OF GRANT REQUEST 19 500 � . _ � ------ . �y . .� `I� _._ _ ----- --- _ -- - — �1 �.�� 1�1 1��-�.J � 1.��. � �l,.}'�� M 1�� —;- � ��; y Y L-_� �� ,��¢' � � I —< � f I a� � � ' �' -�ti�` - I ' � L�-'..J ��r � � � I � • � �� : o r—�= _._i " �.�'� r—�--1 r� � T \ � � .��- �'. �=— � I � '--- �----�r'-»W�� ` _�° �__ - � i � ; �—{ , , i , • 1- � � � �,��__,. � -- - -_ � �,_..u:,,�� >= _ � r---.��- � �- ` ; z :� 1 y—�� :��;r � ;;^ ��s �� u � �, . { ` � �� w- � -��. ,; ow � � r � } Q \ �Y I� r.r-■ 3 iF � c � $ Q ( I� I I_—.

Signature of Individual Typed Name Title Date Completing Applicat on �"�� - Susan Marschalk Community Organizer 5/23/90 � COMMUNITY BUILDING INITIATIVE . The Hamline Midway Coalition is requesting funding for a Community Building Initiative from July, 1990 through June, 1991 . The purpose of this initiative is to encouraQe � neighborhood stabilization by bridging relationships between the Hamline Midway Coalition and other community organizati.ons including youth groups, senior citizrn associations, fraternal organizations, as wFll as the churches and schools in the neighborhood. It is also the intent of this intiative to build a stronger connection with community residents and business people and to ensure that all activities in which the Coalition participates, will be inclusive of every community member. In 1982, the Coalition participated in .block club organizing arovnd crime prevention. Although those block clubs have not been maintained from the perspective of ongoing meetings, the Hamline Midway Coalition has kept those contacts informed of Coalition activities. We are interested in approaching neighborhood stabilization from an alternative approach to traditiunal crime prevention organizing. This is a diverse urban community, however renters, youth and people of color are seldom involved in neighborhood events or decision making. The Coalition is committed to building relationships with every population re.presented in the Hamline Midway community and an actual strategy is needed to encourage. broad participation. Part of that strategy is to re=establish a block club network that is based on building relation- ships between neighburs, to encourage problem solving at the community level, speci- fically that community members work with each other to find solutions, whether it is a problem property or a barking dog. Although enforce_ment can be of assistance in temporarily solving an issue, usually the problem will surface again. We are interested in defining the systemic problem, and assisting neighborhood residents in working toward a solution. Rather than discussing a "neighbor" at a block club gathering that people consider is creating a problem, we would like to see people include that person in the discussion in order to arrive at a satisfactory solution. The expectation is that Board members, along with staff will particpate in a door knocking campaign throughout the community tu identify the interests of neighborhood residents, develup an understanding of neighborhood values, and identify potential leaders who would have the skill and cammitment in organizing their own block. Those "neighbors" will be contacted again for a one on one interview. Staff will work with those individuals to organize a block meeting or party. The staff and Board members will also contact leaders of existing organizations including baoster clubs, community groups, senior citizen and youth associations, churches and schools. In June, the Hamline Midway Coalition will be working with West Side Citizens Organization on a �ommunity building training. The two organizations have hired an organizer from Chicago to facilitate a community meeting between each community based group and representatives from other neighborhood organizations. This is a beginning for the Hamline Midway Coalition in building relationships with other organized constituencies. With the information that is gathered, staff will begin setting up town meetings on a smaller scale which will address a particular issue or event of a specific geographic ar� of the neighborhood. The goal of these meetings will be to connec* neighbors with each other, encourage ongoing communication and establish relationships. Up until last year the Hamline Midway Coalition published a newsletter, but be_cause of �funding shortages it was necessary to end this service. Recently, we published � the Neighborhood News again, however it is now being distributed throughout the entire neighborhood, rather than just block clubs. A portion of this grant would be used toward continuing the publication of the newsletter. The Hamline Midway Coalition is actively working to concentrate on the capacities of the Hamline Midway neighborhood, not the deficiencies. Racism is an important piece in preventing urban communities from stabilizing. It is the goal of the Hamline Midway Coalition to encourage everyone to take part in their neighborhood, to use their voice and to establish relationships with their neighbors. . �j u��11� Proposed Budget for Co�nunity Building Initiative EXPENSES Personnel Associate Organizer (20 hours) $10,400.00 FICA 795.60 Benefits 1 ,000.00 Administration 2,000.00 Total $14,195.60 Printing Newsletter 3,500.00 Advertising 250.00 Flyers/information 200.00 Total 3,950.00 Supplies postage 500.00 paper supplies 250.00 Copying supplies 100.00 Training staff and community 1,004.40 Total $20�000.00 INCOME The Saint Paul Foundation $10,000.00 McKnight Neighborhood Self Help Initiatives Program 15,000.00 Dayton Hudson Foundation 10,000.00 Biglow Foundation 7,500.00 Volunteer time @ $10 per hour 5,000.00 500 hours Total 47.500.00 • �� 5��9° �' � . �jo -11Ce� � Neighborhood Crime Prevention Grant Program Use this format for both the Planning Division pre-application and final � Dept. of Planning and Economic Development application. 25 West Fourth Street St. Paul, Minnesota 55102 (612) 228-3371 FINAL APPLICATION DUE: MAY 25, 1990 APPLICATION Please type all responses Group or Organization Submitting Application St. Anthony Park Association 292-7884 Name: c+ � + „ (`ni�nrii Tele hone: ,�nzhenT—Rarl<< 6err�m�na�, p Address: £�90 Cromwell � St. Paul, MN 55114 Contact Person: Roberta Megard Daytime Phone: 292-�884 �roject Description: (Limit this description to one page! ) (On a separate sheet, provide a brief description of the goals, objectives, activities and specific steps that will be taken; any existing crime prevention activities now underway; existing need and how the project addresses that need; and a statement of how your organization will manage and evaluate this project; and staff responsibility.

THE OBJECTIVES of the grant project are to reduce crime and to increase the involvement of residents of St . Anthony Park through the following ACTIVITIES : 1 . maintain the network of 100 block workers and area coordinators to support the CrimeWatch program, recruiting new individuals as needed ( list attached) ; 2 . hold at least one meeting in each of the ten areas of St. Anthony Park to train block workers on CrimeWatch, Operation I .D. , and other crime prevention activities ; 3 . establish a minimum of ten new active CrimeWatch areas ; 4 . increase the use of security hardware ( locks , window security, alarms ) in homes through a l : l grant matching program; 5 . update and expand the data-bank of all residents , as a resource for CrimeWatch , including a talent bank; 6 . produce and distribute four issues of the newsletter, THE NETWORKER ( sample issue attached) , to all 2 , 500 households ; 7 . increase the number of block clubs b3 20�; 8 . welcome new residents with a "new neighbor packet" , including CrimeWatch information; 9 . expand outreach efforts through projects such as "adopt a park" , house and garden tours, environmental projects , and better utilization of community resources . St . Anthony Park wrestles with the problems of crime, deteriorated housing, loss of community identity, industrialization, and inadequate human services . In the past � St. Anthony Park residents have prevented many problems from becoming serious by addressing them early. The network of 100 block workers and the programs related to that network are intrigal to these prevention/ intervention efforts . Presently, the community is divided into ten areas . Area Coordinators oversee the efforts of the block workers in each area. Approximately 45 block clubs { list attached) meet to cooperate on project, solve mutual problems {crime prevention, watching one another's homes , alley lighting, cooperative alley plowing, babysitting co-op, landscaping and for social purposes ) . Communication between the SAPA and SAPCC and the community is maintained through a quarterly newsletter, THE NETWORKER and liaison with each Board. Funds to provide staff to maintain the network and these activities , and to cover related expenses , are necessary in order that the program will continue. An effort to up-date CrimeWatch and other crime prevention activities was recently initiated in St . Anthony Park via a community-wide meeting on March 22 , 1990. Since then block workers in two of the areas have met with an officer of the St. Paul Police Department to discuss crime prevention strategies . During 1989 a policy on the use of the block worker network in emergencies (attached) was worked out cooperatively with the SAPA, SAPCC and the Police Department. An half-time ( 20 hrs/week) Outreach Coordinator (Job Description attached) will be hired by SAPA and SAPCC to administer this crime prevention program. The Outreach Coordinator will work under the supervision of the SAPCC Community Organizer, work out of the Community Council Office, and report monthly to the SAPA Board and the Human Service Committee of the SAPCC. Evaluation will be by tracking progress on each of the grant objectives. (This grant project will be carried out in cooperation with a parallel project being proposed by the St. Anthony Park Merchant' s Association for which the Outreach Coordinator will work an additional 10 hours/week. ) . �o-�� BliDGET ST. .�'�THU;�I" PARIi NEIGHBORHOUD CRI:�1E j;ATCH PROGRa'�� LI:�E ITE^1 NCPG �IaTCHING TOTAL FUNDS Ft':�DS� BL;DGET PERSO�'�EL A.

May 1.990 Treasurer's Report , St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association • Rev. 5/24/90 /,� �� ' PROJECT DESCRIPTION v� Project Name: North St. Anthony Park Commercial Crime Watch Project Goals: To develop a prototype crime watch program similar to security programs at regional malls, but suitable for implementation among small independent businesses in neighborhood commercial area Objectives: 1 ) to improve comnunication among businesses regarding security issues 2) to improve security measures in commercial neighborhood 3) to deter crime and provide swift response to criminal activity Activities 1 ) Establish telephone caller network to link neighborhood businesses a� t� eps: 2) Develop looseleaf security manual for use by business emmployees 3) Develop and disseminate for public display and business use various window decals, counter signs, placards and other signage to publicize program and participation of businesses in program 4) Coordinate police and Commercial Crime Watch activities 5) Improve security measures in commercial district through physical improvements and coordinated volunteer efforts. Existin Crime revention c ivities: The St. Anthony Park Merchants and Professional Association formed a Security Committee to investigate establishment of a Mall Watch-type program. The Colhmittee has met only twice and has not developed any program as yet due to the time demands on its membership. Paid staff is needed to develop and implement such a program. The Association has neither staff nor offices. ( Existing Need: The North St. Anthony Park commercial area has suffered in recent years from periodic episodes involving robbery, burglary, car theft, assaults, shoplifting, passing of bad and forged checks, vandalism and other crime. Although crime rates are not as severe in North St. Anthony Park as in other areas, these crimes have more shock value than in other areas and contribute to feelings of insecurity. Much more could be done to improve security and deter crime. Project Management: The Association will contract with the St. Anthony Park Community Council for the part-time services of a paid project coordinator. The coordinator will be an employee of the Comnunity Council and will also be responsible for implementing the Council 's residential crime watch project. The Association will develop a job description covering the coordinator's involvement with this project. The Coordinator would report to and be responsible to the Association through its Security Committee and the President of the Association. The Community Council would serve as fiscal agent for the project. As part of the project, the Coordinator will be responsible for project implementation and documenting compliance with project goals. The Coordinator will prepare initial draft of project report at end of project period. The Coordinator's report shall be reviewed by the. Association's Security Committee and submitted to the Association for approval and submission to the Cortmunity Council and the appropriate city officials. One of the goals of the project is to develop �rototypical information which can be used by other neighborhood commercial areas to work together to improve security and deter crime. All information and materials developed through this project would be made available to other neighborhood commercial areas seeking similar programs. Joint coordination of the residential and commercial crime watch projects will enhance crime prevention efforts in the entire northwestern corner of the City. In subsequent years, the Association hopes to expand the project to include additional businesses in North St. Anthony Park and South St. Anthony Park.

PAUL Objective: Investigate whether alley lighting reduces crime. Proposal: Esrimate the associarion between the amount of alley lighting and the average crime rate by cazrying out a designed statistical study. In addition,explore community attitudes and perceptions about alley lighting. Background: There is widespread agreement that well lighted streets, alleys and buildings discourage crime, yet many of the alleys in St. Paul are poorly lit. Why don't people put in alley lights? There are probably many reasons. Some possible ones are: • Residents are not aware that NSP will install and maintain alley lights for a monthly charge of approximately $7. • Residents don't know the extent to which the presence of alley lighting reduces crime so they are unable to make an informed decision about whether to have alley lights. • There is often little incentive to bear the entire cost of providing alley lighdng that benefits neighbors since it is often very difficult to get neighbors to contribute to the cost of an alley light. • NSP requires a 3 year payment commitment for each alley light that is installed and maintained. Renters may not be willing to make this comrnitment. • Low income residents may not be able to afford alley lighting,particularly if they must bear the entire cost of a unit. Why a Designed Study? Suppose, instead of a designed study, data are collected on levels of alley lighring and reported crimes and used to estimate the associaaon between them. Such a study would be called an "observational" study as opposed to a "designed" study. Any conclusions made on the basis of such an observational study may be very misleading. For example,residents of higher crime areas are more likely to have alley lighting than residents of low crime areas so when you look at the association between levels of lighting and reported crime you see a positive relationship between lighting and crime--higher levels of alley lighting are associated with higher crime rates! Carefully designed staristical studies are necessary to establish cause and effect relationships and control for the effects of other factors not direcdy related to the question of interest. Outline of the Study: • Determine study area(see attached map)and duration of study (3 years). • Determine high,moderate and low crime areas within the study area. • Decide on sample size and sample unit(blocks or groups of blocks). • Decide on levels of alley lighting. • Randomly allocate levels of alley lighting to sample units. • Decide on types of reported crimes to include in study. � vJ��C�' - Alley Lighting in St. Paul Proposal Budget Budget Alley lights for sampled areas $ 13,5 0 0 150 @ $90 per light per year Research and analysis computer use �3,000 Mail survey printing �2 0 0 Mail survey postage $3 0 0 Administration, Office and Office Supplies $3,0 0 0 Total �20,000 In-Kind Contribution Background research �3,0 0 0 1 volunteer statistician 300 hours @ $10 per hour Data Analysis and disseminarion of findings $3,0 0 0 1 volunteer statistician 300 hours @ $10 per hour Data Collecrion $4,8 0 0 10 volunteers 4 hours per month x 12 months @ $10 per hour Monitoring study �12,0 0 0 10 volunteers 10 hours per month (6 hours per month for meetings)x 12 months @ $10 per hour Survey-- conswcting survey �4 0 0 2 volunteers 40 hours @ $10 per hour Survey-- stuffing envelope and mailing $ 10 0 5 volunteers 10 hours @ $10 per hour Survey-- coding responses on computer $3 0 0 1 volunteer 30 hours @ $10 per hour Survey-- analysis and disseminarion of findings �1,2 0 0 2 volunteers 120 hours @ $10 per hour Total -- 2,000 hours �2 0,0 0 0 i i ' � �'' _ $ P �� a "vu j � � N , ` 1 � w ht dt�a � , a � ,, .. ,,.. .�... �• • r b t • � � P N +..��. .. � . �� • � • � r ♦� '+ + �o . �, �,.�� k •� j �' .

Signature of Individual Typed Name Title Date Compl.eting Applica i �� /J„ " Katherine Tarnowski Community Organizer 5-24-90 ►fm1�(%�� The District 14 Community Council is requesting funding to further develop and implement our Block Leaders Organizing for Community Concerns (BLOCC) effort. Our BLOCC Program is ` not designed to be just a crime prevention program. It is designed to build the capacity of the Ptacalester-Groveland area through the development of neighborliness� neighborhood leadership and effective communication. It is our belief that the stimulation of : neighborhood capacity building results in a safer, more stable communities. We want to work to develop a network of BIACC leaders on each and every one of the more than 500 block faces in the Macalester-Groveland neighborhood. This effort will be an opportunity for neighbors to get together to deal with common concerns and interests. These BLOCC Clubs will be an informal association of residents of a given block working together within a well-structured network of other blocks. This network will be used to help residents get to know one another, to identify issues of interest or concern, and to learn to work together. The BLOCC Program also will serve to stimulate communication among blocks and between the blocks and the community council. It is intended that the BLOCC Program will first build a sense of mutual concern among neighbors for helping each other and that this concern and interest will lead to joint efforts amono others to watch out for each other's property, block-wide premises checks and expansion of Operation ID, installation of private alley lighting, and group purchase of locks and security systems. Our crime prevention efforts will include a Neighborhood Crime Prevention Fair which will draw public attention to crime prevention measures. Our crime prevention program will be developed through joint efforts with the Southwest Area Team Police and district councils participating in the new South��est Area Crime Prevention Coalition. While crime prevention is the first goal of the District 14 BLOCC Program, another long term goal of the District 14 Community Council is to support and develop activities that will maintain and upgrade Macalester-Groveland's aoing housing stock. Most of our housing stock is in relatively good condition; however, 2/3 of the housing stock is over 50 years old with many homes dating back to the 1920's. Many of these older homes are in need of major work. Because of the high cost of housing, high property taxes and the high energy costs associated with old buildings, many District 14 residents are "house poor" with little disposable income for major home repairs. The council would like to work to develop mechanisms for group contracting for home repairs, maintenance� and energy improvements in order to preserve and improve an aging housing stock. �de see this kind of effort as critical to the preservation of District 14's aging housing stock. The District 14 Community Council� with funding by the Afinneapolis Foundation's Neighborhood Self lielp Initiatives Program (�1NSHIP), created its BLOCC Program in 1984. Over three years the council successfully identified and recruited BLOCC Leaders, trained BLOCC Leaders, and assisted with organizing approximately 300 block faces. The network was computerized so that information could be disseminated readily through a regularly updated and continually expanding roster of BLOCC Leaders. Unfortunately, over the past two years the District 14 BLOCC Program has been without resources or staff. IJe are seeking funds to re-activate this program. The future of the central cities in metro areas is the unsolved urban problem of our nation. Despite the strengths of our many excellent center city nei;hborhoods, these neighborhoods are plagued by uncertainty about the future - uncertainty which seriously threatens neighborhood stability. This uncertainty is caused by a slow decline in housing quality� increased rental occupancy, fear of crime and absence of a feelin� of personal and family security, absence of neighborhood pride and a sense of community for a majority of area residents, absence of governmental attention to areas that are not already blighted, and an absence of economical do-it-yourself efforts. Operating by themselves� residents have no ability to influence the stability of their neighborhood. The District 14 Community Council intends to create, through BLOCC, an opportunity for residents to form interests groups directed toward solving problems with their own resources. BIACC provides an outlet for creative problem solving that will develop leadership and preserve and improve the community. BLOCC provides residents with the opportunities and mechanism to maintain the quality of their neighborhoods and take measures aimed at preventing the deterioration that can victimize central city neighborhoods. �v-//�a Proposed Budget • District 14 Community Council BLOCC Program July 1, 1990 - June 30, 1991 Crime Prev.

This person will work approximately 20 hours a week. The BLOCC Coordinator will be an employee of the District 14 Community Council. (S)he will work under the supervision of the community council's Comr.�unity Organizer/Executive Director and with the council's BLOCC Committee. The ELOCC Committee has not met for almost two years and will need to be re-created. Tlle BLOCC Coordinator's first tastc �,rill be to contact the people designated as BLOCC Leader on approximately 300 block faces. (This involves considerably fewer than 3�0 people as many blocks are organized by two block faces with one ELOCC Leader designated for both.) �Jhile we have called and asl:ed for help on one issue or another by at least SO of these BLOCC Leaders in the past year, no one has contacted them for two years. tr'e need to identify tivho is willing to serve in t}�is capacity, determine how active the block has been and whether or not c ancnunity council assistance is needed. BLOCC Clubs that have hecome inactive will need to be re-activated. Gie will want to recruit BLOCC Leaders and or�anize blocks that have never been orCanized. The ULOCC Coordinator will be responsible for updating the roster of BLOCC Leaders so that information on hot grids etc can easily be disseminated. (S)he also will be responsible for BLOCC Leader training, compiling statistics and evaluation of the program. The �LOCC Coordinator, witi� the council ' s Community Organizer, provide technical assistance with the organizinP of BLOCC :�ieetinos organized around non-crime prevention issues, such as traffic, land use, schools etc. Zhe LLJCC Coordinator will assist the BLOCC Committee in putting on a �IeiGhborhood Crime Prevention Fair which will draw community attention to the need for and success associated with crime prevention efforts. This Fair �oill be held in the spring of 1991 at I�iacalester College. It will be a "home show of crime prevention" including exhibits by security companies and crime related service agencies. Separate funding is being sought for this activity. ttie will dra�v on the experience of our 1983 sponsorship of a similar Crime Prevention Fair. It is our intent to hire an intern from one of the area colleges to help with this activity. Iiousing maintenance efforts will not occur until the BLOCC Club network has been updated and may have to be delayed until 1991-92. _ � v-/�� Evaluation District 14 Community Council BLOCC Program In the period running from July 1, 1990 to June 31, 1991 we propose to or;anize an additional 50 block faces. �ti'hether or not this number is achieved will be a component of our evaluation. Another component of the evaluation will be through conductin� focus �roups. We will conduct focus groups of BLOCC Leaders to determine whether or not blocic organizing contributes to their feelings of neighborliness and/or a feeling of security and safety. j��e will be working with the Police Department to determine whether or not a statistical reduction in the crimes of burglary and vandalism occurs with the re-activation of the Uistrict 14 £�LOCC Program. � � � • � � � ;� o � � � � � � D� �i� � �.;� �� o � � �� L � L��i �� _ ; � � . � .c�� ULLI � � ,.��, a Q a � � � °' � a � � m � o � � � �yy11 ,i �r�•yoNS _m1 _- � � �, � Y Q Y � �) ` �5� ��y �.:...� � L� 1 m� � N 3 ° ° � � ;g � � o � 1 I l� ! ,.M,.� '"y �� N g 00 � ,�Q ``�-° � p.

G ~ Scott Bunin President 5 2 �C3 Si tura of Individual Typed Name Titls at� Completing Application Highland Area Community Council z Cri.me Prevention Grant Application May 25, 1990 I. Goal The goal of the Highland Area Comrrwnity Council (HACC) in pursuing a crime prevention grant is to maintain the stable area of Highland Park as a safe cocnmunity for all ages. II. Pr^o¢ram We intend to use this grant money to hire a crime prevention outreach worker whose �ob it will be to implement and monitor our two ob�ectives: 1) to educate residents throughout the Highland area on crime prevention through a series of forums; and 2) to establish a network of block clubs in a target area. These forums, which shall be developed and publicized with the assistance of Com�r�unity Education, will address separate topics of interest in our cornmunity which shall include, but not be liroited to: 1) Personal Safety for Seniors. Outreach work for the forum will be done with organizations that work with seniors--the Jewish Canmunity Center, AARP, Highland Block Nurse Program. 2) PTA/PTO meeting to discuss how to establish safe houses for children, and how to alert and diss�ninate safety and crime information concerning children. This will involve working with the McGruff progr�n in Highland's 8 elementary schools. 3) Commercial/Business security forum with the Highland Business Association, looking to develop sharing of crime concerns on an ongoing basis. 4) General inventory of a home's present security system (including basic locks and safety practices) and steps to improvement. 5) Self Defense Class in conjunction with Community Education. 6) Optional. In the event of obtaining only partial program flanding, forums will be offered frequently on organizing block clubs and training block leaders to take the initiative in their neighborhaods to develop and maintain crime watch clubs and alley light maintenance. We've identified a target area of approximately 65 blocks (see map) in which we hope to establish 30-40 block clubs during the grant cycle. The outreach worker shall establish these through: 1 ) Working with HACC members to identify, recruit and train leaders in crime prevention block clubs and alley light management. This shall additionally strengthen the District Council through development of leaders and through its network's potential use in other outreach efforts. 2) Write and send crime prevention newsletter to affected areas as, initially, means of education and outreach, then as update and information as network develops. 3) Act as a resource for the Sibley Manor Crime Prevention/Resident Council. (Sibley Manor has 550 units - many are low-income units.) . � �v�//�D ; . III. Need This pro�ect is needed because the approximately 25,000 residents of Highland are affected by the very same wide spectrum of crimes found throughout the City, yet no. Crime Prevention programs currently exist in this district. Information on neighborhood crimes are not currently disseminated to others who may be affected. Crimes are not reported in the newspaper or covered in any newspaper. The population of Highland includes the largest elderly population in Minnesota, whose changing personal safety needs must be addressed and whose perception of neighborhood safety may not reflect current realities. There has also been an influx of young families, particularly in the project target area, whose children face a different variety of crimes, and whose recently purchased older homes may need upgraded security. Our proposed newsletter, forums, school outreach, and block clubs all address these concerns. In addition, this project will also help all groups become more involved in the c anmunity, which in itself helps in crime prevention. Further, we wish to work on a coordinated basis in crime prevention with neighborhood District Councils, but will not be able to do so without fl�nding. IV. Manaaement/Evaluation The outreach worker will submit a monthly written report directly to th� District Council Executive Caarnittee which shall be responsible for monitoring the worker's activities. Each forum will be evaluated by participating speakers and by attendees. The block club component will be evaluated on the basis of number of block clubs established during the grant cycle. V. Outreach i�lorker Resoonsibilitv The outreach worker shall be responsible for developing and arranging all forums. He or she shall also be responsible for recruiting, training, and monitoring block workers and for developing a newsletter and publicizing information pertinent to the program. The outreach worker shall also work with District 15 to develop a Southwest Area Crime Prevention Coalition with neighboring Districts 13, 14 and 16 for the purpose of sharing information on a coordinated basis. The worker shall also coordinate efforts with crime prevention officials of the Police, Fire and Planning Departments. YI. Post Grant Manaa�ent The Comm�nity Organizer shall be responsible for seeing that the block grant program continues by maintaining lists of contact persons, updating such lists when necessary, and occasionally contacting low-activity block clubs to ensure that they stay operational. She shall also maintain coordination efforts with Districts 13, 14 and 16. A.

It has 550 apart— �ents...55 buildings with 10 units in each. The population is currently estimated to be 1,400 persons, the bulk of whom are lov to ■oderate inco�e. It is a diverse community, called home by people of many different races and ; cultures (see attached ■ap for location). Sibley management has been very welcoming to, and cooperative with, human service agencies vho are now using space donated by management to serve Sibley residents. In recent years, crime has been #1 on the list of things Sibley residents �ould like to see addressed in their neigh— borhood. At a public �eeting a fey months ago, residents pointed to the following crime—related concerns: auto theft; vandalism; loitering; excessive noise; drug use/selling; speeding; very poor outdoor lighting; the 55 build— ings in Sibley (each has two entrances) have no locks on entrance doors. In the past four to five years, Sibley has developed a staggering 45� annual turnover rate in tenants. Because of this, residents say it is very difficult to know who your neighbors are, and thus, ■uch suspicious behavior goes unreported. Since August of 1989, Sibley has seen: a rape; a sexual assault; a murder; a severe beating; and a stabbing. In addition to the public meeting, other forms of "citizen participation" have taken place. They include: tvo "focus groups" in �hich a cross section of residents met to discuss their "vision" for Sibley as a neighborhood (both groups ranked crime—related concerns first on a list of priorities; and a survey residents are taking door—to—door to gauge their neighbors' interests (so far over 120 people have expressed an interest in implementing a crime watch). � In deciding to start a cri�e vatch, residents set forth one pri�ary objective..."To combat feelings of fear, isolation, and vulnerability and move toward individual/neighborhood empoverment by: getting to knov more of their neighbors; organizing on their own behalf regarding safety and crime—related concerns; and participation in crime—prevention strategies." Residents began meeting t►+ice �eekly in late March, once per veek to design and establish a Resident Council� and once per reek to design and establish the first per�anent co��ittee of the Council, a Sibley Cri�e Yatch. It has become apparent that starting a Watch in an area the size of Sibley vill be very challenging indeed, and that resi— dents �ill need to work in partnership with other groups to make this successful. Numerous contacts have been, and �ill continue to be, made with the following: St. Paul Team Police (SW Sector); Neighborhood Assistance Officers (NAO); area fire department personnel, and others engaged in offering emergency services to Sibley; Sibley aanagement; area businesses; community service agencies; Highland Area Community Council and others. Residents vill develop crime pre— vention strategies in cooperation �ith Sara Cwayna and Officer Corrine Manthei and others invalved in St. Paul's new "neighbarhood crime prevention" initiatives. Additional consultation vill be provided by Connie Oppelt, who coordin� ates successful crime watches for three St. Paul apartment complexes. for the summer, residents will operate an ad hoc (temporary) Crime Yatch and work hard to interest others in Sibley's first Resident Council and Cri�e Yatch elec— tions to be held in October. The Crime Watch Committee shall be made up of three types/levels of positions: Cri�e Yatch Coordinator; Block Captains; �nd Building Representatives. Attached job descriptions give details of responsibilities for these persons. The designated Program Manager vill be Tim LaFleur of the West Seventh Community Center. Tim is a licensed social �orker who has vorked in many St. Paul neighborhoods for over 12 years. He has seen clients from Sibley for the past three and a half years and will soon (by July 1) be working full time in Sibley. The snccess of this project will be judged on the basis of rrhat is happening by June 30, 1991. At that time, Crime liatch �aeetings will be occurring on a regular basis, citizen patrols will be occurring nightly; other Crime Watch personnel will be in contact a minimum of t�ice per veek, a minimum of 27 persons (CW Coordinator, six Block Captains and 20 Building Representatives ++ill be actively engaged in crime prevention efforts. The size of the Sibley neighbor— hood, and the scope and number of activities of the proposed Crime Watch, are such that ve've also applied to NPP for funds for a couple of items, chief among them, badly needed outdoor lights. The private match, neighborhood contribu— tions, and volunteer labor listed in our line item budget on page 2, do not duplicate those listed in our NPP applica— tion, but are another part of the same program. One of the nine activities listed in the NPP applications, is a Crime Watch Citizen Patrol...residents using walkie—talkies and a base station to patrol the Sibley neighborhood nightly. Trro of the primary activities listed on page 2 of this proposal are: establishing Operation I.D. in Sibley (using engraving instruments to place numbers on possessions, which are then registered with police); and establishing a Crime Yatch "Phone Tree" (a system enabling residents to quickly gather neighbors as vitnesses to crimes in process). This application requests funds for only one crime watch';�but a crucial one. We ask for funds to purcfiase and install locks on all building entrances in Sibley �55 bldgs = 110 locks). Pattirtg locks on these doors will make the many long hours volunteers �ill be putting into this project, dramatically more effective. Please honor our request for funds.

Personal style and over- all disposition will be critical. Is the person too "mild mannered" or too "aggressive"? Will he/she be able to make quick decisions and act promptly and responsibly, especially when the immediate safety of a resident(s) is involved? Hov will this person represent the Crimewatch to neighborhood partners such as area businesses, manage- ment, community service agencies, police, fire and paramedic personnel, the media and the general public? ihe Crime Watch Coordinator... . °Will be empoWered by the Resident Council to make policy regarding crime watch methods, procedures and activities. °Will be accountable directly to the Resident Council President. To overturn a policy or procedural decision made by the Crime Watch Coordinator, the President is required to call for a vote by full Council. °Will be solely responsible to present the Council �ith a brief summary of all recent crime watch activity.

BIOCK CAPTAINS One Block Captain �ill be selected to represent each of the six (6) Sections of Sibley, by the voters (residents) in that particular Section. The primary role/responsibility of Block Captains, will be that of "gatekeeper", that is, to make certain that information gets to the appropriate party(ies). Block Captains will seek to enlist the support of one "Building Representative" for every building in their Section. This will put them each in frequent contact with 7-10 Building Representatives who vill be under their direct super— vision. Block Captains shall immediately contact the Crime Watch Coordinator with any crime related information, activities or concerns that come to their attention...through either their Building Reps or through any resident(s) living in their particular Section of Sibley. Any Non—crimevatch related information that is not of an emergency nature, will be reported by the Block Captain(s) at the next monthly meeting of the Resident Council. Resident Council meetings vill not serve as Crimewatch meetings. The Crime Watch Coordinator will provide the Council with a brief summary of recent Crimewatch activities during Council meetings. The Captains, while partici— pating in Resident Council meetings will, for the most part, restrict their contributions to non—crime related con— cerns expressed by their "constituents". Actual Crimewatch meetings, for the purpose of training, information sharing and problem solving, vill take place quarterly or at the discretion of the Crime Watch Coordinator. � Other Outies of the Captains will include: °Organizing at least 2 informal "get togethers" per year for residents in their Section. °Organizing and maintaining the "Phone Tree" in their Section.

You were curious as to why we do not, at present, have locks on entrance doors and better lighting throughout the complex. We cannot deny that Sibley Manor Apartments, Inc. is a profit-making corpora- tion. We also understand that lights and locks are an important contribution to neighborhood security. We genuinely care about the welfare and general well-being of our tenants , and many of them would be happy to attest to this. At the same time, we find ourselves in a difficult position. For the past few years, we have put nearly $100,000 annually back into Sibley. We recently changed 52 unusable garage doors (at a cost of $15,000) , and spent $63,000 replacing building entrance doors. We recently spent over $65,000 in repairing roof drains and roofs, and making a large number of other miscellan- eous repairs. Other improvements are planned. If we had the dollars on hand right now to put in lights and locks, such as those suggested by Mr. LaFleur, we'd likely do it. If we are to do this on our own, it may easily be a few years. For many years, the greater share of our tenants have been low-income, and we've no immediate intention of changing that. As you'll see on the attached ad, our rental prices are lower than most anywhere in the metro area! We're confident that it would be extremely hard for someone to find homes as nice, as well-kept, and as affordable as our apartments. For us to gather the dollars to make major improvements of the scale Mr. LaFleur is suggesting, we would inevitably have to raise rents. We're attempting to do all we can to make necessary improvements to our buildings without raising rents substantially. There has been no rent increase in one and a half years, and there is none planned for the immediate future. While we do not have money on hand to completely pay for lights and locks, we've made it clear we're willing to sit down with residents and discuss spending dollars we do have, on other things residents see as important. After meeting with Mr. LaFleur earlier today, we commit ourselves to providing the following: MEMBER OF n�niniGn av — ciR� Fv AAANf�R INr IA MINNFS(�TA C;(�RP(�RATI(�N1 MULTI HOUSING.
