process is identified on the attac ed Planning Commission Resolution. Funding
recommendations (Attachment "A") a d tipulations (Attachment "B") are part of

1. What is the exact amount of yo r PP fund request? $ ��9Qp.Qp
2. Is it a loan or grant request? Le r rarrt and tectmical assistarice
3. What is the total declaration f ighborhood contributions? (complete
� p es 8 & 9) $ 1.211.600.00
4. Describe in detail your projec -p imary purpose, specific features,
i guidelines, etc. (If multiple ro ects are proposed, i.e. residential
I rehab and chore service, each st be separately described) .
The purpose af this first phase of rehab woric i to effect a turn-araaid in both the physical
� characteristics and the resident perception of arkway/Greenerier area. The area is �musual in
'; the develo�rent of its housing stock. On many 1 s there exists a wide variation in both age and
condition of housing. For this reason, the lik ly rcerrtage of participarrts in a given area may be
j law in car�arison with other such efforts. The o , tar�ting assistance to the praperties rrost in
� need will be a vital part of this project. It s icipated that in later phases af an overall
impr�over�ent effort, there will be sane hanes, v lands, and u�den�sed areas in need of acquisition
and redevelo�nent.
; 1. Rehabilitation of existing housing in a a.
� A total fund of $180,000.00 will be available ourage and leverage private haneowr�er irtprovenerrt of
� property. It is arrticipated that ZO property will participate in the first year of operation, and
an additional 25 in the second. Eligibility wi 1 limited to hanesteaded single or duplex stn�ctures.
While primary reliance u�der this effort will on Pm loan and deferred loan programs, a major
function af project staff will be to p�.�licize ourage participation in a variety of other existing
f�ded resources. Qualifying participarrts will vailed of M-�A rehab loans, private financing, ERC,
Neighborhood Energy Consortiun and RAP house r and weatherization grarit progr'arns.
Matching grarrts wi 11 be used by the haneawr�er f e' her of tw� purposes. If a txme can� brought up to
code thra�gh use of City or other loan financi , a rarrt of 40% of the loan package or a maximm of
$4,000.00 per household may be provid�d for app v exterior rehab or improve�r�ents. Eligible woric v�uld
not include additions or e�ansion af roaris, ld include garage, resider�t-a�ned sidewalk or retain-
ing wall repair. If the maxim�m allawable r available loan prograrris is insufficierrt to bring
the stn�cture up to code, and if it is deerned by Ci rehab staff to be economically feasible for
►�ehabilitation, the same arnaBrt of matching gr f s may be used for apprnved code irrprove�r�errts.
Program priorities arid further guideline details wou d be developed by the project task force.

4. Project Description (continued)
In order to concentrate efforts> program pranotion would begin in the northw�estern one-third of the project
area, adjacertt to the Greenbrier new constructia� (see map). Activity would progress to the salth of
Seventh Street and then to the easterly section of the area.
2. Streetscape irrprovanerrts in ttie project area.
It is our stra�g belief that tangible p�lic ir�provenents play an important role in encouraging participation
in rehab efforts. Many previous publicly financed concentrated rehab areas relied upon nEw street construction
as a cornerstone of the effort. Sewer constn�ction crnmitrr�ts prevent us fran doing this here. Hnwever,
due to the area's aging irrfrastnxture and erratic topography, many heaved or clttheerwise d�terioriated side-
walks exist. $40,000.00 is set aside in this project to match assessrr�ents on a 50-50 basis for cornection
of these problems. Priority will be given by the task force to areas where significarrt participation exists
or serious safety cor�ditions warrant imrediate replacenent. This activity will be �,ndertaken by Public
Works and coordinated with NI�C plans in order to crnplerent later street and sewer worlc.
$50,000.00 is set aside as a matching f�.md to enhance the quality and outward appearance af the new housing
on the Greenbrier site itself. With the advice of the task force and District Camcil, this activity will be
designed and carried out by Pm staff and the site dev�eloper.
3. Development of an overall rehab and redevelopmer�t plan for the project area.
$15,000.00 is budc,�ted to enable District 2 to contract with a ca�sultant to recam�'�d an overall set af plans
and strategies for the area. This activity is r�eeded because of the difficult topography, land use piroblems,
and other �usual physical features. The planning process will include the following:
a. Plan develoRrent of privately a�ned vacant land and carpatible surface use
of sew�er right-0f'-way, including potential par�cels for acquisition, soil correction
prior to develo�xrerrt, and passive paric/open space developnent.
b. Recorm�erb staging and scheduling af redeveloprent efforts to coordinate with
major M�CC and city sewer constn�ction projects.
c. Identify dilapidated properties in need of major wor�c or derolition.
d. Identify and plan for rerediation af incarp�tible uses, such as industrial
residerrtial conflicts, in coordination with the Plaming Crnmission's ar�ticipated
Censtone 40-acre studY-

5. Briefly describe, the specif c roblem/need your project is designed
to address and cite referenc s f possible from City Comprehensive Plans ,
Annual Citizen ParticipationiGo ls and/or other studies.
Problans: Deteriorated older housing, inc ible land uses (including those between single and rrulti-
family housing as well as between resident'al cam�ercial/industrial uses), and perception of law
livability and desirability af the area.
Ccrrpr�ehensive Plan policies 3 - 9, objecti e 4 5 - 1 and 6 - 2 address the need for rehabilitation,
mairrtaining of housing stock and the City' c itr�t to preservation of resideritial neighborhoods.
The District 2 Plan addresses the need to e land use inccmpatibilities, develop appropriate uses
for vacarYt parcels and mairrtain single f ly sing. Plan recam�eridation #24 states "A concerrtrated
housing rehabilitation effort should be to the southwestern portion of the district."
Curnerrt year District 2 goals call for fo 7aw on Greer�rier issue and develo�nent af a housing
rehab project for this area.
6. Please list in order of pr or ty the three most important objectives
of your project.
1. Increase neighborhood stability by pro iding incerrtives for investmerrt in the rehabilitation ai-id
improvererrt of existing stn�ctures
2. Provide enhancenents to planned li ar�d private investrr�ent and developr�ent in the area.
3. Develop an area master plan and s i ic plans for reuse af existing vacarrt or �.�derutilized
land and structures in future pha s the redevelopr�t/rehabilitation effort.
7. Briefly describe, in qua if able terms, the specific results and
impact your project will c 'eve when completed.
45 property awners will have inve a 1 of approximately $405,000.00 to bring up to code
or �tt�erwise rehab and inprwe exi 'ng lder housing. Ttie corresponding $180,000.00 in p�blic
e�-iditure will have resulted in ion of serious code deficiencies where r�ecessary and
visable extemal ir�provenent to st s and the neighborhood.
$50,000.00 in adjacerrt streetscape illary public improver�ents will enhance the viability �
and quality af the 12 - 16 �mit ing develoane�rt associated with this project. $40,000.00
in m�tching subsidies for reconst i of sidewalks will result in safer caiditions and
visable irrprovar�ent to at least fi bl k-faces in the neighborhood.
Plan will map out and quantify fut ases to redevelo�r�ent in the Park�sy/Greenbrier area.

8. In order to accomplish your objectives does your project have to be `
coordinated with any other project/program? Yes X No If
Yes, describe the other project/program and the relationship.
This project is timed so as to encourage private inveslment in conj�ction with the redevopnent of the
former Greenbrier Hane site. The streetscape irrprovements are directly related to develo�nent of the
12 - 16 units of law-incane-tax�redit financed rental housing. The hane rehab exterior grarrt incerrtive
and sidewalk replacer�errt portions of the proposal are desigr�ed to build uprn this turn-am�md of a
blighting influence and perception of area residents that the neighborhood can be stabilized and
irrproved. ConstnKtion of the new U.S. Post Office and irrprovsnents to Parkway School will also
coincide with this project.
Plar�ing activities will be coordinated with a 40-acre stu�y scheduled for the Cerr6taie property to
the south af the project area.
It will be r�cessary to closely coordinate this project with major City and IW�C sewer and street
irrprovererrts, for which 1992 constn�ction in ar�ticipated. Plan developnent will inwlve af Public Works
and M�C staff, so that future infrastructure irr�rovenerrts will caTpla�r�errt this ard future project activities.
9. Will this project be completed in 2 years? Yes_� No If not,
explain how it will become self-sustaining without further NPP funding.
The actual rehabilitation and developnent pa^tion of this project will be carpleted over tvro (2) years.
The plaming activity will result in additional phases, including other area irrprover�ents which will
cartinue beyand this time period.
10. Will this project result in increased maintenance and operating costs?
Yes No_�. If Yes, explain how the project will
privately pay for those costs.
The project carries no ongoing mairrt�ance or operating crnmilments.

11. Will the project benefit low and od rate income households?
Yes X No If Yes, descri e.
The new constnxtion hanes and assaiated pr'oject cti ities on the Greenbrier site are mandated by funding
mechanism requiranerrts to beriefit law and moderate inc families (40 - 60 � of inedian incan°).
It is irrtencled that 90 % of the hc�r�eowners benef'it ng rcm the rehab grarrt incerrtives will qualify as la�
or m�derate incane under CDBG guidelines.
Census tract 317, which includes the project area is t. Paul's most heavily populated tract (6,968 persons).
Its total of 1,254 law-incane individuals is sec 1 rgest overall. It is the lawest incane portion of
District 2 with 1,331 households falling belaw 80 � area wide incar�e. It has �mdergone a significant
increase since 19�0 in the nunber of (particularl ion 8) subsidized units.
12. Describe your organization - hi to y, structure, membership, etc. and
its experience in managing simi ar projects.
The District 2 Crnma�ity Camcil is the City- ' ed citizen participation organization in District 2. It
was created in 19�5 as a result of reorganizati f the previous Greater East Side Ccirmmity Ca.mcil. Its
m�ribership, board and ccmnittees are open to an who is a resident or operates a business in the area.
The 21 mar�ber board is geographically-based wi 12 marbers elected fran grids or s��istricts, and the others
frcm four larger district subdivisions. Grid re ives serre alternating two-y�ear terms. Officers are
elected at the May meeting and serve for a�e r. The arrent Board rterbership is deverse in age, incar�e,
acupation or profession, and length of e�eri e in cam�ity activity.
Despite being a relatively "new" organization, i rict 2 has had success with the efforts and projects it has
�mdertaken. In addition to preparing a carpl much rrore detailed rewrite af the District Plan, we have
initiated action to implenerrt sections of that pl , including this first�ver housing irtprover�ent project for �
the City's most northeasterly district. Our yc ing progr'am met with rapid success and ranks in the City's
top five in par�ticipation. In the fall af 1 , 'strict 2 and 5 organized, managed ar�d involved 3,000
residents in the area's largest-ever ca�mwit household hazarcious waste collection in conj�ction with
our neighbort�ood cleanup. Our organizing eff in response to reuse of an abandoned rail corridor, the
Greenbrier Hane and ccrrmmity residential fac lit es have involved large r�unbers of peoPle and have increased
awareness of and participation in the organiz i .
NPP Application Page 6 Project Name pq�Y���� �
13. Describe how your organization will manage this project - activities ,
responsibilities, membership participation, etc.
Two factors are rrost irrpo►�tant to effectively manage this project. First, in order to be successful it will
need to be operated as close to the carmu�ity as possible. Residents of the rehab area have never before
been exposed to public efforts at neighbortaod irrproverr�ent. To that end we iritend to hire one half-time
Camunity Rehab Liaison, supervised by the CO (project manager), to staff the rehab portion of the project
and have the primary responsibility for recruitrr�rrt and follow-thra.rgh. Secondly, it is not the irrterrt of
District 2 to process or adninister loans or grarrts. The quar�tity is not sufficient to justify operations
separate fran the existing Pm program. This project will require a close working relationship between
District staff, Pm housing, and c�tther resource agencies. The responsibilities af the citizen Task Force
in this matter are detailed in #15.
The plar�ing consultant will be hired and supervised by the Board
The streetxape and sidewalk improvenent portions of this program will be managed by appropriate City staff
with ongoing participation arxl project approval of the Task Force and District Council.
14. Who is the designated project manager? M". Rdy SfiRI0f1S, CRrm�ity Organiaer for District 2
Describe his/her background, skills and experience in managing similar
type projects.
Mr. Ray Samrons, Carmaiity Organizer for District 2, will serve as the designated project manager for
purposes af contact and staff supervision. Mr. Samnons' relevarrt badcgramd is as a cann,mity organizer,
neighborhood leader and activist for ten years. In this capacity, Mr. Samans has been responsible for the
irrplenerrtation and oversight af rnmarous p�.�licly and privately financed crnmnity efforts.
The primary roles of the project manager will be to oversee the process of participarrt recruitrr�ent and
assist the District 2 Board and plaming consultarrt in the preparatia� of future prog�^am activity plans
and f�mding req�.�ests.
15. Describe the citizen participation process for this project.
In terms of project develoRrent, initiative for this project came abalt thrax,� the process of redrafting
the District Plan, and more recerrtly from neigf�orhood caxerns arising over the reuse of the Greenbrier
Hane. The District 2 Corrmaiity Ca.�cil developed this pr�oposal as a result af these activities.
In terms of orx�oing citizen participation thmughout the irtpler�entation of this and subsequerrt project
activities, District 2 will form a 12-rtgnber Parkway�brier Task Force carQrised primarily of area
residents, but also having representation fran the real estate, financial and legal conm�ities.
While not serving as a loan review carmittee for this phase of the project, the group will work with
the CRL staff person and plaming consultarrt to d�termine priorities for participant recruitmerrt, set .
detailed program guidelines, and plan needed inprovar�ents. This gr�a.� will assist District 2 in
fornulating future priorities and area f�.mding requests.

16. Will the project result in eit er the returning of NPP funds to the
Neighborhood Partnership Progr r the recycling of NPP funds
within the project? Yes o X If Yes, describe.
17. How does this proposal meet th i tent and goals of the Neighborhood
Partnership Program:
Housing rehabilitation arid neighborhood irrpm efforts, in order to be successful, require the
direct personal participation of residents in pa rship with the crnma�ity organization and the
City. This project addresses NPP goals by be ng ighborfiood directed in its recruitrr�ent of
participants, providing for flexibility in sc allawable activities, resulting in visable
physical irrproverrerrts and leveraging a si�if c arrour�t of private investment. This first
phase of concerrtrated area irrprover�ents is sc ed to take advar�tage af a aie-time opport�ity

5• Briefly describe, the specific ro lem/need your project is designed
to address and cite references f ossible from City Comprehensive Plans ,
Annual Citizen Participation Go ls and/or other studies.
This project is consistent with the District 3 Flan adopted by the City
Council in 1981. On page 28, un er the heading "Playgrounds" the plan
states : "Because there does ot seem to be a need to construct additional
neighborhood recreation cent rs the emphasis over the next five years
should be on improving exist ng playgrounds . " Recommendations 1. The City Parks
and Recreation Division should rovide additional improvements tc p,wygroun s

6. Please list in order of priori e three most important objectives� djStriCt.
of your project. ----- -
1. Provide safe , age approp ia e pjayground equipment on land considered
rr�st feasible adjacent to a ity recreation site.
2. Develop a positive, famil o iented recreation area in an area of the
neighborhood that needs i .
3. Develop a cooperative spi it among residents, the students at Roosevelt
Elementary School and the Co cord/Robert Business community by working
together to build a new p ay round � �which will ,at the same time,serve
the needs of the children an enhance the neighborhood.
7. Briefly describe, in quantifia le terms, the specific results and
impact your project will achie e hen completed.
The playground will certainl b an asset for the children who attend
Roosevelt School who present y ave recess in the parking lot at the
school site. It will provide a leasant, family recreation area for children
who accompany their parents or games at the ballfields at adjacent E1 Rio
Vista. Children who tag alon n w must cross a busy street to use equipment
at Parque Castillo, The West Si e Child Safety Committee has strongly urged
that the limited scope of th e uipment at Parque Castillo not be expanded
in view of its location for af ty reasons. The surrounding neighborhood is
one densely populated with m'no ity families living in subsidized housing
units. There is also a subst nt al neighborhood of owner occupied single
family homes nearby; but ma y f these homeowners are not economically
able to provide their childr n ith backyard play equipment. Of all the
city owned recreation areas n he West Side; E1 Rio is perhaps the one
that serves most low income es'dents.

Yes x No If Yes, es ribe.
The West Side schools have tatistics which prove there are more children
enrolled here who are eligi le for free or reduced lunchesthrough the

in collaboration with the West Side Child Safety Committee which serves
as a subcommittee of both WSCO and the West Side Elementary PTA Board.
Projects the Child Safety Committee have spearheaded so far have been
very successful . The committee has the endorsement of both WSCO and the
PTA and has worked on various safety issues affecting children including
such things as abuse prevention and education of parents. This committee

worked on a NPP project specifically; she has worked on coordinating other
projects which may have involved as many components. Getting collaborative
efforts off the ground is a requfi�ement of nearly every project she has
been involved with in the past two and one-half years with WSCO.
Ms. Brown worked as a journalist and a high school English teacher before
working as a community organizer.
15. Describe the citizen participation process for this project.
Project is initiated by a subcommittee of both the DistrTCt Council and
the West Side Elementary PTA; it has already been endorsed by both groups.
The involvement of parents, school staff, members of the business community
as well as the children will be an integral part of the project.

l. What is the exact amount of y ur NPP fund request? $ �0,700.00
2. Is it a loan or grant request '
3. What is the total declaration �of neighborhood contributions? (complete

4. Describe in detail your proje t primary purpose, specific features,
guidelines, etc. (If multipl p ojects are proposed, i.e. residential
rehab and chore service, eac mu t be separately described) . The Eastside Arts
Committee, a committee of Phalen Area Co mu ity Council, requests NPP funds for a series of eight
performances held at the Phalen Lake Amp it eatre during the summer of 1989. These performances
will simultaneously build individual art st c appreciation and Greativity as well as develop
community pride and cultural understandi g. The performances will be composed primarily of
Eastside cultural musicians, drawing fro t e Hmong,Cambodian,Polish,German,Swedish,Norwegien and
Native American heritages. many Eastsid c mmunity groups will be involved in the development of
the series. COmPAS, which has a long tr ck record of successful community arts programming will
act as a consultant. The Eastside of St P ul, which includes our project area, has had a
history of stronq neighborhoods, but sho s any signs of personal struggle. Its once thriving
manufacturing base is eroding in this ne i formation age, but its replacement has yet to fully
emerge. The various European nationali �es that followed the Indians in giving birth to the
Eastside's cultural di�ersity are being jo'ned now by Southeast Asians, new to America, and black
families forced by rising rents in othe p rts of the City to search out better housing bargains
here. The City of St. Paul is well awa �e f this. It's Planning Division issued a 1985 •Data
Profile of the District, grasping and s mm rizing the situation in its "Issues" section under the
heading "Poverty Cycle" on page 6.(see tt chment page 12) .
What we are proposing is perhaps an unu ua form of social intervention to address this situation
It is not food, neither safety, nor job tr ining. It is aimed at another aspect of human needs:
that of the spirit. We believe that at en ion to and development of our own spirit of creativity
and joy in others� is both powerful and im ortant. It is important because as human beings we a1=
have something to give, to create and w o e it to ourselves and humanity to develop and relish
those capacities. It is powerful becau e he satisfaction and happiness that can come from
mastery and appreciation knows no bound . They flow into other aspects of our lives, bringing se_
confidence, a fresh outlook, and a than fu ness for diversity.
Our organization and it Arts Committee are uniquely positioned to involve and attract all ethnic
and social elements of the community. COm AS is providing the exciting direction of C� ?F� �loa�
to identify ethnic artists from his ro ter of more than 50, (many of whom live right here on the

4. Project Description (continued) Eastside) , and to design events full of surprise and
audience involvement. The St. Paul Oepartment of Parks and Recreation has pledged two new
kiosks and special publicity flyers. We are tremendously excited about the potential for this
kind of effort to open peoples' eyes to the singular beauty and common themes of races and
cultures that they have been ignorant or misinformed about and are now living next to. Just the
drawing together of several nationalities within one audience at these multi-ethnic performances
lays the stage for better understanding, even friendship. Hopefully, individuals will take away
a new skill or appreciation for an art form. As a whole, we expect the community to feel
more pride and strength and unity as we come to know and enjoy each other more.
This is just the first step to revving up an underused site, to partnering many different
community groups on planning and publicity, and to establishing a cultural programming group born
of and located on the Eastside. Future events and their support we hope can be gathered
elsewhere, but for now, we very much need you to get an effort of this scope and community
involvement rolling. Please open your heart and shake free your imagination as you consider this
approach to creating a more attractive and livable neighborhood by providing a much needed
aspect of public service through NPP funding.

S. Briefly describe, the sp ci ic problem/need your project is designed
to address and cite refe en es if possible from City Comp rehensive Plans ,
Annual Citizen Participa io Goals and/or other studies.The Eastside Arts Committee
goal of providing performances at Lak P alen is the direct result of a three year study by the
Eastside Improvement Coalition. This in lusive consortium of community groups was responding to
current crises by studying past data nd future trends. The process directly involved over 1000
different residents and included stra eg' es to build the community in four different categories.
The priority projects include the fol owing on page 13! "Summer-long performances and exhibition
to showcase local and regional talent t he Lake Phalen Amphitheatre will be coordinated by a
Community Arts Committee and aided by Om AS." The larger issues of community spirit and individ
ual pride are being addressed by this ro 'ect. Tangential issues of improved ongoing cultural
programming and its impact on the econ mi development of the area will be supported through its
success. Anne Howden, Arts Developmem m �ager of PED, was helpful in assisting the specific
form and strategies of the Arts Commit ee as part of the City�s overall goal of neighborhood
cultural development. Warren Hansen,N ig borhoods Division, has supported the concept of economi
development through arts community dev lo ment on the Eastside by pledging $1000 and 12 hours'
graphics time to produce a brochure to attract artists to the area.
6. Please list in order of pr or ty the three most important objectives
of your pro�ject. 1 . To cel br te the ethnic diversity of Eastside residents while
deepening artistic understanding and ap re iation of those cult�res.2. To attract and involve
families and low and moderate income re id nts in creatively empowering experiences. 3.To further
develop and establish the Eastside Arts Co mittee as an effective neighborhood-based cultural
programming group.

and to a slowdown of commerc,ial retail activit . Lower values have attracted more poor into the
area burdening social,cultural and religious o ga izations with neW social needs. The district has
the fifth lowest percent of college graduates nd the seventh lowest percent of high school graduate
in the city. It has the sixth highest percent of single-parent households. (source:PED, District 5

much needed and beneficial. (See quote by Kat ry Martin,0ean� Wayne State University in the

13. Describe how your organization will manage this project - activities ,
responsibilities, membership participation, etc management will design,schedule and
promote the events with input from The Eastside Arts Committee and Phalen Area Community Council as
follows: 1 . Survey existing community groups on event ideas, available performers,costumes, flags,
props,etc. and scheduling limits;2.Team with COmPAS and St. Paul Parks & Rec and community groups
to design events and identify artist-performer needs and park scheduling constraints;3match artist-
performer availability with community group and park scheduling requirements;4.Develop strategy for
publicity with Parks and community groups;S.Publicize events:design advertisements and brochures by
deadlines;6. Supervise events. Equipment, safety, security, head counts at start and finish and
audience evaluations;7.Document event-a photographer to document each performance;as a thank you to
the local community ethnic group involved to record the event to support funding for future park
events and to contribute to an Eastside Cultural Center;8. Evaluate Events. Written forms are a bad
idea;the number of people present at the beginning of an event will be one measure of success, the
number present at the END of the same event will be another and oral interviews of participants
should be conducted especially for suggestions for improvement and future programs.

The District 5 Plan and the East Si e provement Coalition have recomme�ded that
rehabilitation programs be develop t remove blight and encourage new business
development. ESNDC and PABA have 1 borated on a Development Plan for the over-
all revitalization and redevelopme the Payne-Arcade business area. The prob-
lems of vacancy and deterioration v been that focus of previous efforts and these
efforts are beginin� to show resul s. This addition to the existing funding will
provide additional incentive, allo f r participation by Arcade businesses and will
support the improvement envisioned by the URAP request which is pending.

lem on University Avenue is visual pollution Candl leads to a blighted
impression."

of upgrading. A result of th se problems (and others) is the negative
perception that the Universit A enue area is a "bad" place to live and work.

9 . Will this project be completed in 2 years? Yes No�_. If not,
explain how it will become self-sustaining without further NPP funding.
This project will not be completed in two years; however, it will serve as a
springboard to prompt the businesses to pay more attention to site maintenance
and avenue promotional activities. Therefore, in time, the businesses
(better coordinated and more congenial) will have the entire responsibility
of beautification and promotion.

Yes No XX . If Yes, explain how the project will
privately pay for those costs.
The maintenance cost will be the entire responsibility of the businessmen
once renovation (facade uplift) has been done to the property. If trees
are planted in front of businesses, the responsibility of maintenance belongs
to the business. The Aurora/Saint Anthony Area Block Club, Inc. , can match
youth with a business in order to assure maintenance (business will pay youth) .
If sites are chosen for beautification that are city-owned, an agreement will
be reached between Aurora/Saint Anthony Area Block Club.and the City as to �
maintenance responsibilities before beautification efforts�are commenced.

4. Describe in detail your proj ct -primary purpose, specific features,
guidelines, etc. (If multip e rojects are proposed, i.e. residential
rehab and chore service, eac ro st be separately described) .
PRIMARY PIJRPOSE: to restore the tr et gutters along upper Irvine Avenue in order
to retain the historic character f n avenue that played an important role in the
development of St. Paul and is to ay an important component in the restoration of
the Summit Hill/West 7th neighbor od . The gutters were a simple, concave drain
of multi-colored fieldstone. They an along the northside of upper Irvine Avenue,
between the curbless street and th r taining wall , directing rainfall into city
sewers in an effective and decorat ve manner.
SPECIAL FEATURES: The original pav'ng materials of the street gutter were fieldstone.
Long-time residents remember when he street gutters along up�r Irvine were made
of multi-colored rocks oF irregula �, s ape placed to form a drain for water on the
northside of upper Irvine parallel 'to the roadway. Neighborhood representatives on
Irvine Avenue Design Team working ,it Public Works' on the Sewer Separation .
Project strongly suspect that thes '� s ones are still there. They have been seen
peeking through the road surface f 'bm time to time in recent memory. Moreover,
residents who havP lived on the st ee since the fieldstone was first paved over,
never witnessed the removal of the St nes. Neighborhood members of the Design
Team want to take advantage of the pp rtunity that the Sewer Separation
Project presents. While the road b is being excavated, the stones could be
recovered and recycled. If the sto s re not there or not enough of them are in
good enough condition to reuse, ne ' st nes or bricks could be used in a design in
keeping with the historic flavor of'th original stonework, and compatible with
the new road bed.
The West 7th Federation agrees wi h the neighborhood members of the Design
team and the City of St. Paul Herit ge Commission which supports this feature

5. Briefly describe, the specific ro lem/need your project is design�dtreet)
to address and cite references f ssible from City Comprehensive P1ans ,
Annual Citizen Participation Go ls nd/or other studies .
This project responds to the general goals utlined in 1980 comprehensive plans for districts
8 and 9, districts which both consider Irvi e venue a component in their development.
DISTRICT PLAN 8: "To recognize the district's istoric areas and develop preservation programs
suited to both the buildings and the owners." (Their map puts Irvine Avenue within the State
Historic District. ) "To retain and improve he character of residential streets."
DISTRICT PLAN 9: "When streets are paved th e tire streetscape from house to house should be
considered and all improvements made as a p ck ge. This should include trees, sidewalks,
boulevard sodding, street lighting as well s urbs and pavement." "Each West 7th pocket
neighborhood should be encouraged to seek a un que identity and name and be enouraged to
form associations to establish positive ide ti ies." And this project follows the particular
recommendations of District 9 that Irvine A en e and Walnut Street "be developed as an
integral part of the green open space plann d etween the bluff and West 7th Street improve-
ments. These plans and improvements should e n extension of and complimentary to
Irvine Park restoration." (Irvine Park also ha brick detail work.)
6. Please list in order of priority th three most important objectives
of your project.
1 .To restore an authentic detail to a stree th t played an important role in St. Paul
history and is an equally important eleme i today's preservation and beautification
efforts in the Summit/Selby and West 7th n ig borhoods and d ong the nearly completed
35E parkway.
2.To demonstrated the city's committment to n ighborhood whose residents are commi-
ting their physical , intellectual and mone ar resources to renovating or restoring
their homes, yards and gardens.
3.To add an element of artistic design to a ti itarian project, proving that we can
still build beauty into public projects fo t e enjoyment of all city residents and
visitors.
7. Briefly describe, in quantifiable te s, the specific results and
impact your project will achieve en completed.
A utilitarian function, water runoff, will b a hieved in an aesthetically appealing
manner. Irvine Avenue, like the Irvine Park hd Rice Park neighborhoods, will have
brick work to help define its unique, histor'� haracter. The gutters will be an
appropriate part of a complete "streetscape'� �c age, including the new ornamental
lighting and landscaping, and the existing li�ne one retaining walls. Neighbors, city
residents, and tourists will enjoy an added enity as they journey from Summit Avenue, �
on the handsome 35E access roads, bridges d romenades to the Old Fort Road/West 7th
Street. Neighborhood improvements will be li ke with an attractive roadway.

8. In order to accomplish your objectives does your �roject have to be '
coordinated with any other project/program? Yes No If
Yes, describe the other project/program and the relationship.
The Public Works Sewer Separation Project, with its expressed goal to improve the
street while it is being reconstructed, provides this opportunity to restore as
well as repair. The reconstruction has been postponed from 1989 to 1990 to allow
the neighborhood and Public Works to address historic considerations like;these
gutters, restoration of the limestone walls, and underground power lines.
9. Will this project be completed in 2 years? Yes x No . If not,
explain how it will become self-sustaining without further NPP funding.
The project will be a part of the 1�90 implementation of the Irvine Avenue Sewer
Separation Project and will follow the Public Work' s timeline of 6-7 months
construction, from April through September.
10. Will this project result in increased maintenance and operating costs?
Yes No X If Yes, explain how the project will
privately pay for those costs.

, 11. Will the project benefit low and ,mo erate income households? �f � '"`�
Yes X No If Yes, descr"be.
Beautification of the street will inc ea e property values of the people who
live on the street - many being of mo er te to low income. People of all incomes ,
from all parts of the city, can enjoy th s architectural excursion into the past
as they walk, jog, bicycle or drive d wn the street.
12. Describe your organization - hist ry structure, membership, etc. and
its experience in managing simila p ojects.
Organized in 1973, the West 7th Street Fe eration is the local organization representing
many block clubs in the West 7th/Fort oa neighborhood. The organization was founded
in response to a need to turn the comm ni y around after a period of population
decline which began in the early 1960' w en families sought larger and newer homes
outside their former neighborhood or p rc ased cars and drove out of the area to
��shop in bigger stores. Its purpose i t regain control over changes and take
advantage of opportunities for growth y nsuring community participation in decision-
making. For example: the community inp t hat made possible housing improvements
in Irvine Park, Leech-McBoal and Cliff st eets and the area north of St. Stan's ,
as well as public improvements like th n w High Bridge and the Interstate-35E
connection.The Federation operates und r he principle that people have a right
and a duty to control the future of th ir environment. Once a year the Federation
holds a convention to elect officers a d ebate and approve resolutions that set
the priorities for the coming year. Th E ecutive Board consists of 10 members plus
task force leaders who are appointed a t e need for a specific committee dictates.
All volunteer their time and talents. he Board raises its budget for a two person
staff from churches, businesses, found ti s and community fundraisers. Concerns
include everything from arts and educa fon to slum landlords, grain trucks, rezoning,
and anything related to commercial and residential development - including historic
preservation of buildings and streets. o unity organizer Betty Moran has worked
closely with the Irvine Avenue Corr�nunit a d its Design Team in current efforts
to cooperate_ with Public Works on a pl n o improve the avenue during the Sewer
Separation Project. She has attended ev ey meeting and has offered guidance to
neighborhood representatives in the pre ar tion of this grant request.

13. Describe how your organization will manage this project - activities ,
responsibilities, membership participation, etc.
fie West 7th Street Federation will , in partnership with Planning and Economic
Development, administer this grant through the cooperative efforts of our
community organizer, Betty Moran; project director, Charles Locks;
the Irvine Avenue Design Team; and the Public Works Department. The Federation will
insure that all PED' s requirements for grant acceptance are fulfilled. Once the
selection process is completed, the Federation will monitor the refinement of the
proposal ,&insure that neighborhood contributions and maintenance agreements are
carried out. Upon completion, the Federation will review the evaluation of the
project.
14. Who is the designated project manager? Charles Locks
Describe his/her background, skills and experience in managing similar
type projects.
Mr. Locks lives at 365 Irvine Avenue. (222-6518 - home) (227-0093 - office)
He has been a real-estate broker since 1978 and a licensed truth and housing
inspector for the city of St. Paul since 1984. He served as co-developer of the
Stone Church Condominiums and has designed and executed considerable building and
landscaping impro�vements orr his own Irvine �lvenue carriage �touse. He. -is an active
member of the Irvine Avenue Design Team and has testified before the St. Paul
Heritage Commission on behalf of this project.
15. Describe the citizen participation process for this pro�ect.
Neighborhood members of the Irvine Avenue Design Team, including representation
from the West 7th Federation, have had numerous public meetings with Public
Works to explore possibilities for neighborhood improvements as part of the Sewer
Separation Project. Restoring the street gutters was one of the goals selected by
the neighborhood team. Since Public Works did not include any historic preservation
features in its final plan, citing budgetary constraints, neighborhood representatives
appealed to the city of St. Paul Heritage Preservation Commission for support.
(9/8/88) The Commissions' recommendation of this feature, as well as restoration
of the limestone wall and the burial of power cables, were presented to the Public
Works Committee of the City Council . (9/28/88) The City Council , like the Heritage �
Commission, found the Public Works plan unacceptable without these restoration features.
The minutes state that Councilmember Diamond "felt this a very historic area in St.
Paul and has some value, and for that reason, he didn't think this project should be
treated as a normal project but should be looked at from a city perspective." He added
that "he did not think this design was at all acceptable." The acting chair, Councilperson
Rettman, ordered that the Irvir.e Avenue Project be laid over for two months during
which time Public Works and the Design Team would work together to amend and fund
the plan. In compliance with this edict, the citizens are requesting funds from NPP
for this particular component in Irvine Avenue' s street design and will match those
funds with new building projects, repairs and renovations of their property, and
by supplyingThenotherrcomfonentsa�the limestonebwallWandsundergroundlpowerdlinesacare

16. Will the project result in eith r he returning of NPP funds to the
Neighborhood Partnership Progr o the recycling of NPP funds
within the project? Yes N If Yes, describe.
17. How does this proposal meet the in ent and goals of the Neighborhood
Partnership Program:
This proposal will enable a neighborhoo t work together with a city department
to preserve that neighborhood's unique ha acter and, in effect, contribute to
the quality of life of the city. Citize s ill have found a way to reconstruct
amenities that are not included in stan ar operating procedures of Public Works
and are not presently included as a usu 1 ine item in their budgets. Hopefully,
budgets may be amended in the future, s nc a committee has been formed and is
under the leadership of Kathy Stack, Di ec or of the Community Services Department,
to include art and aesthetics in public bu lding projects.

neighborhood residents have already acco pl shed many improvements beneficial
to the city: the development of condomin um on the Children' s Hospital site;
the construction of 3 new townhouses on he Western Avenue entrance to Irvine
Avenue; the remodeling and reroofing of he Weyerhauser carriage house, to name
but a few. Irvine Avenue residents have lr ady contributed many volunteer hours
to this project, the Restoration of Irvi e venue (street) Gutters - meeting with

on to call for repair rather than replacement he ever possible; and
WHEREAS, the Saint Paul Heritage Preservation m ission, based upon evidence
presented at their September 8, 1988, meeting, mad th foilowing findings of fact:
1. Irvine Avenue is currently an oiled roadway w'th combined sewer and with an
unknown amount of underlying and ad jacent ist ric pavers, and the proposed
bituminous surface roadway with concrete cur a d gutter and new storm sewer
system is consistent with the guidelines;
2. The existing limestone retaining walls along Ir ine are distinguishing features of the
environment and should be repaired rather tha re laced;
3. The existing wood retaining wall between uppe a d lower Irvine just east of Western
Avenue� which repiaced the original limestone 'eta ning wail after a washout. should

5. The existing double cable guard rail wil! be reused as much as possible; the proposed
self-weathering steel guard rail, to be used at some locations where the diCference in
elevation between the upper and low�r roadways necessitates a higher strength guard
rail, is consistent with the guide(ines; and
6. Utility lines along Irvine, many of which have been added in the last few years and
serve more than the adjacent property, are not consistent with the historic character
and quality of the area and should be buried;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Heritage Preservation Commission finds
the proposal to improve Irvine Avenue between Summit Avenue and Pleasant Avenue by
grading and paving and by constructing curb and gutter, new catch basins, new driveways,
a new storm sewer system, a lantern siyle lighting system. and storm and sanitary sewer
and water service connections to be consistent with thc unique aesthetics and character of
the Historic Hill District and with the Hill District Guidelines for Design Revi�w; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Heritage Preservation Commission recommends
that the existing limestone retaining walls along Irvine be repaired rather than replaced,
that any necessary fencing associated with retaining wall repair or reconstruction be
historically appropriate and not chain link, and that the existing wood retaining wall
between Upper and Lower Irvine just east of Western Avenue be replaced with a new
retaining wall which matches the original limestone wall in slope, composition, design and
appearance; and
BE IT ALSO RESOLVED, that the Heritage Preservation Commission recommends that
existing granite sewer blocking and existin3 exposed historic paving materials in driveway
connections be preserved and that any underiying historic paving materials discovered in
the removal of the oiled roadway surface be handled in a manner consistent with the
recommendation of HPC staff; and
BE IT ALSO RESOLVED, that the Heritage Preservation Commission recommends that
utility lines along Irvine be buricd on the condition that. the utilities, city, and abutting
property owners find a mutually acceptable way to pay for the conversion; and
BE I'I' ALSO RESOLVED� that the Heritage Preservation Commission's comments and
recommendations on this matter be transmitted to the City Councii and the Depar.tment of
Public Works for their consideration.

1. What is the exact amount of ur NPP fund request? $ 100,000.00
2. Is it a loan or grant request Grant
3. What is the total declaration of neighborhood contributions? (complete
ages 8 & 9) $ 352,800.00
4. Describe in detail your proje t primary purpose, specific features,
guidelines, etc. (If multipl p ojects are proposed, i.e. residential
rehab and chore service, each mu t be separately described) .
The Midway Coalition - District 1 h s been actively involved in housing and commercial
development since the beginning o 19 7, when we began the first of two phases of the
Snelling Commercial-Residential I ro ement Project. Those projects, the second
of which is still in existence, be an our effort to bolster the condition of housing
in our neighborhood. This new pro'ec represents an extension of that effort into a
new section of the neighborhood.
This proposal is for promotion of ou ing rehabilitation in the northwestern residentiat
corner of Distrct 11 -- the reside ti 1 area bounded by Minnehaha Avenue on the
south, Fairview Avenue on the east t e Pierce-Butler Route on the north, and Prior
Avenue on the west. We intend to ro ide incentive grants to homwowners, and to owners
of rental residential property wit in this target area.
With some possible minor variation , he guidelines for residential rehabilitation
grants in our first two projects w '11 be largely the same in this project. Those�
guidelines have been as follows:
- Eligible work includes exterior im rovements, energy e.fficiency improvements, and
major structural code items.
- The grant pays for one-third th cost of eligible improvements.
- The maximum grant for most resi 'nt'al property is $3,000; in the second project,
we have approved several larger ra ts for large apartment buildings.
Our experience in the first two pro ec s shows two possible ways that these guide-
lines may be amended for this new p oj ct:

4. Project Description (continued)
- We may consider easing the match restrictions for very l.ow-income residents,
especially senior citizens.
- Since the number of larger grants is very small, we may consider issuing that assist-
ance as low-interst loans. The small number of such transactions means that the
administration would not be complex.
The purpose of this new project fits well with our first two projects. Although
this is a new section of the neighborhood, the general housing problem is the same
throughout the neighborhood: Although the Hamline-Midway neighborhood is perceived as
essentially a solid family neighborhood, with housing in solid condition, there
are alarming pockets of deterioration, and trends toward decline. The neighborhood
could go either way. For example, the 1982 Housing Condition Survey showed that
there was a noticeably higher percentage of multi-family units in need of significant
repair in the Midway than in the rest of the city. Also, the prelimimary results
of the 1988 Housing Condition Survey show that the percentage of single-family struct-
ures in need of major repair in census tract 320 -- the tract containing this new
target area -- has increased from. the 2 - 4% range, to at least 9X.
In the context of the general problem of vulnerabi?ity of the housing stock, this
particular target area is an interesting enigma. The area is directl.y adjacent to
Newell Park, across Fairview Avenue; there is some very attractive housing to the
east and south of Newell Park. Yet this target area is a completely different sort
of neighborhood -- the housing is much smaller, and there seems to be a much greater
need for major repair.
The major purpose of this proposal, then, is to continue our very succesful effort to
solidify the housing stock in the neighborhood. By keeping the guidelines simple, we
have promoted dozens of rehab jobs in our first two projects, and we expect to have the
same success in this new area. Currently, the area threatens to have a negative
impact on what may be the most stable part of District 11; we believe it is possible to
help this target area become part of that stability and attractiveness.
A secondary purpose of the project will be to increase the participation of the
residents and property owners in the target area in the activities of the Midway
Coalition -- there has traditionally been almost no involvement from this corner
of the district. Another secondary purpose wil.l be to continue the process of in-
creasing our knowledge of the community's rehab needs, and the motivati.ons of all
kinds of property owners in the neighborhood.

S. Briefly describe, the specific p ob em/need your project is designed
to address and cite references i p ssible from City Comprehensive Plans ,
Annual Citizen Participation Goa s nd/or other studies.
The Hamline-Midway neighborhood is a communit " n the cusp" -- it could remain a stable neigh-
borhood, or it could slip into decline, remov'ng one of St. Paul's family neighborhoods. The
1982 Housing Condition Survey points to the d"la idated condition of multi-family housing in the
District relative to the whole city. Accordi g t the still-preliminary 1988 survey, the con-
dition of single-family structures in tract 3 0, the tract containing this target area, has de-
clined noticeabl� in the intervening six years. everal of the Midway Coalition' s top 10
priorities, adopted this Fall, relate to the ed to continue housing rehabilitation efforts.
The District 11 long-range plan, adopted in 1979, identified this target area as a priority area
for housing rehabilitation. The proposal is i 1 'ne with the city's Comprehensive Plan in
several ways, including the promotion of housi g ehab; the Mayor's Neighborhoods Initiatives
Program promotes "livability," which this effo t ould address directly. Finally, the importance
of energy conservation is increasing again; if ou first two projects are any guide, many of the
rehab projects will include significant energy co servation improvements.
6. Please list in order of prioriLy th three most important objectives
of your project.
1.Promote housing rehabilitation. _ '
2. Increase participation by residents nd or property owners in Coalition activities.
3. Increase neighborhood' s expertise co er ing the housing rehabilitation needs in the
neighborhood, and the motivations of pr perty owners of all kinds in doing rehab.
7. Briefly describe, in quantifiable te s, the specific results and
impact your project will achieve he completed.
1. Assist with the rehabilitation of 60 es dential properties in the target area.
2. Involve at least 8 residents and/or p op rty owners in the activities of the Midway
Coalition, including the governing of th s roject.
NPP Application Page 4 Project Name Midway Housin� Rehab, Phase 3 ,
8. In order to accomplish your objectives does your project have to be .
coordinated with any other project/program? Yes X No If
Yes, describe the other project/program and the relationship.
Residential rehabilitation grant assistance will, in some cases, need to be coordinated
with city and state low-interest loan programs. That is, individual projects may include
financing from those sources as well as our program. In our current NPP projects,
we have been able to coordinate financing from several sources.
9. Will this project be completed in 2 years? Yes X No . If not,
explain how it will become self-sustaining without further NPP funding.
10. Will this project result in increased maintenance and operating costs?
Yes No X If Yes, explain how the project will
privately pay for those costs.

11. Will the project benefit low and od rate income households?
Yes_� No If Yes, descri e.
- To the extent that the project improv s t e condition of some dilapidated rental housing,
low-income residents of that housing will b nefit directly and substantially. In the
current two projects, there are guideli s n rent increases the same as with the city' s
Rental Rehab program. We will continue ha policy in this project.
- The maximum income of any residents re ei i_ng benefit of grant assistance will.
be 80% of inetropolitan median income.
12. Describe your organization - histo y, structure, membership, etc. and
its experience in managing similar pr jects.
The Midway Coalition is a non-profit, co u ity-based organization working to benefit the
residents, businesses, and institutions ' t e Hamline-Midway neighborhood. The Coalition' s
goals are 1) to develop programs for the imp ovement and protection of the total Midway
community; 2) to increase citizen partici at'on and influence the decision-making processes
that affect the neighborhood; 3) to act a a communications system and forum for neighborhood
views and issues; and 4) to do short and on range planning to identify and address needs.
We are recognized by the city as District 11 s planning organization, but are also increas-
ingly involved in �setting our own program ag nda.
Membership in the Coalition includes all ho e who live or work within the neighborhood
boundaries; the organization is governed y Board of Directors with positions for 20 dele-
gates and 19 alternates. There are over 00 active volunteers, working on the Board, the
various sub.committees, and special projec s, such as the annual Horton Park Festival, the
neighborhood clean-up, and events such as ou Valentine's Dance and Sock Hop. There are at
least 15 volunteers actively involved in ur two current NPP projects.
The Coalition has had several major accom li hments over the past two years. We sponsored
the seventh Horton Park Festival this pas J ne; we have added two other grassroots fund-
raisers with the Valentine's Dance and th S ck Hop. We put a stop to the unwanted conversion
of single-family homes and duplexes into Xiplexes and fourplexes by taking firm stands before
the Planning Commission in four such cases� e are currently working with a large group of
neighbors near Newell Park, angry over the no'se resulting from the intensifying use of
the railroad yards to the north by Burling on Northern.
Since January of 1987, we have been managi g NPP projects which are actually more complex
than the one proposed. The two phases of he Snelling Commercial-Residential Improvement
Project have produced nearly 70 residentia r hab projects, 14 commercial projects,. a large
mural painted on a building on Snelling, a d nearly-complete plan for public streetscape
improvements on Snelling, to be implemente i 1989. The projects have also produced a
new business organization -- the Snelling- id ay Association -- and a growing group of resi-
dents, property owners, and business owner ' w th significant experience at reviewing rehab
projects, and with good knowledge of the r �ha needs in the community.
NPP Application Page 6 Project Name Midway Housin� Rehab, Phase 3
13. Describe how your organization will manage this project - activities,
responsibilities, membership participation, etc.
The project will be managed in a manner similiar to the current NPP projects. The overall pro-
ject will be overseen by a General Development Committee (what previously has been known as the
Improvement Project Monitoring Committee) , which includes members of the Board of Directors, as
well as residents and business owners from all NPP target areas. This committee will report its
activities twice monthly, to full Coalition Board meetings as well as to the Executive Com-
mittee. Basic policy and procedure issues will be approved by the Coalition Board upon recom-
mendation by the Development Committee. Approval of most smaller decisions -- such as rehab
grants -- will be done by the Development Committee.
Within the Development Committee, there are several subcommittees, including an App](�iation
Review Subcommittee. The Development Committee also intends to set up a long range housing
planning subcommittee, investigating the most difficult housing problems in the neighborhood;
that group will include member8 from this new target area, as will the Applicati.on Review
Subcommittee.
14. Who is the designated project manager? Paul Schersten
Describe his/her background, skills and experience in managing similar
type projects.
For several years, Pau1 Schersten was community organizer at the Merrick Community Center on
St. Paul's East Side. During that time, he was involved in the formation of the Fast Side
Neighborhood Development Company, and worked with the Payne-Arcade Area Business Association
as it started to address serious development issues. He was also co-chair of the task force
that designed the Neighborhood Partnership Program, in 1982 and 1983.
In 1984 and 1985, he studied and worked at the Humphrey institute of Public Affairs. He focused
on local economic and housing development strategies and financing.
Since September of 1986, he has been managing the two phases of the Snelling Commercial-
Residential Improvement Project for the Coalition. He has helped the Monitoring Committee de-
fine the rehab grant regulations, application process, and publicity. He has also assisr_ed in
defining and managing the process of planning the public improvements. He has done the bulk of
the fundraising for the Midway Coaliti.on.
It is likely that Paul will leave the Coalition during the course of this project, thou�h he
may stay half-time to work on housing issues. We include a copy of the job description used
when Paul was hired to give an idea of the desired qualifications for any replacement.
15. Describe the citizen participation process for this project.
The concept of this proposal has come from the cumulative experience of the Coalition Board
and the Monitoring Committee for the Snelling Improvement Projects, a group which includes
residents, business owners, and property owners from both target areas. That group, and the
whole Board, have gained experience in housing and commercial rehab; the members decided that
the general goal of maintaining the housing stock, and preventing worse problems from emerging,
made the proposed target area a logical choice.
We will have extensive citizen participation during the implementation of the project. There
will be well-publicized meetings �such meetings in the first two projects have drawn up to 80
residents) . There wi1J be direct mailings to all property owners on the availability of rehab
funding, and mailings soliciting volunteers to help with the necessary subcommittees. We wi11
also also have discussions with block clubs about the project.
After the start of the new year, the current members of the Monitori.ng Committee (renamed as
the General Development Committee) will begin recruiting new members from the new target area,
as was done with the second phase. of the Improvement Project; they will also survey property
owners on their specific rehab requirements. Such a survey proved to be extremely valuable in
the second phase of the IMprovement Project, both for gathering information and spreading word
about the program.
We have found that this method of expanding our volunteer base -- continuity, with the same
committee involved with overseeing new projects, and adding new memebrs at the same time --
serves to integrate the neighborhood in a manner that separate c,ommittees would not.

16. Will the project result in eit er the returning of NPP funds to the
Neighborhood Partnership Progr m r the recycling of NPP funds
within the project? Yes o X If Yes, describe.
The answer to this is actually "probably n t" -- there is a chance that we will make simnle
low-interest loans for major rehab project , nvolving amounts greater than our typical maxi-
mum amount.
17. How does this proposal meet the in ent and goals of the Neighborhood
Partnership Program:
- The project addresses priority needs as de tified in many planning documents, from the
District Plan to the city's Comprehensive la . Especially, it addresses the consensus prior-
ity of improving the city's attractiveness to families.
- The funding will fill a financial gap, i t at it will promote a far greater level of rehab
than would happen without the program.
- A great many residents and business owne s ill be involved in planningand implementation.
- The funding requested does not duplicate fu ding available elsewhere in the city.
- The Coalition has developed a strong rec rd in implementing similiar projects.
- Results from our first two projects indi at that the neighborhood impact will be great.
- The activities will be concentrated in a ve small area.
- A great many individuals will be responsi le for providing the private match.

10. What evidence is there that the abo e clarations are realistic?
(Business expansion and private dev lop ent proposals must demonstrate
the probability of private lender s po t. )
- Our current projects have demonstrated tha t ere is demand for rehab assistance in the com-
munity, and that a match level of 2:1 is rea is ic. The proportion of owners that have fi-
nanced their work at least partially with sw at equity is actually higher than the amount
reflected above.
- The hours of volunteer labor is a conserva iv estimate of the hours being put in by the
current members of the Monitoring Committee n ctivities such as making presentations, grant
application review, flyering, and surveying.
- The office rental cost is covered by the M dw y Coalition; the amount reflects the apprixi-
mate amount of that cost that would be used or the administration of this project during a
two-year project. Meeting space is donated y he Quality Cafeteria on Snelling Avenue --
we have dozens of ineetings during a two-year pr ject. We have many printers on Snelling, all
of whom frequently contribute printing costs o charge us at a discount. �
- We have raised more than $60,000 for suppo t f our previous development work.

2. Is it a loan or grant request Z'8rit
3. What is the total declaration of neighborhood contributions? (complete
ages 8 & 9) $ 376.100.00
4. Describe in detail your proje t primary purpose, specific features,
guidelines, etc. (If multipl p ojects are proposed, i.e. residential
rehab and chore service, each mu t be separately described} . '
The purpose of the ei hbQrhood Reriab Incentive is to increase
the �rehab activity and i ve tment into properties within a targeted
area of the Lexfngton-Ha li e Community. The program is designed to
provide owners the motiv ti n. support, financial incentives and ot�er
f orms of assistance to ke improvements to their properties. The
_ program eff orts will be on entrated within a 16 block area bounded
by Hague Avenue to the s ut � Ayd� Mill Road/Hamline Avenue . to the west�
Marshall Avenue to the. n zt � and Lexington Avenue to the east.
Owners of both hous'ng and commercial structures are eligible to
participate in the progr m. The number of commercial structures is more
limited� however. and th i petus f or the program grew out of concern
about the quality ot' the ho sing stock in this section of the neigh-
borhood. Therefore. it ' s nticipated that the majority of funds �ill
be used for residential eh b projects . Funds may be used f or both
owner occupied and renta �, operties. Residential structures may
range from single family, d plex, four-plex to apartment buildings, but
the priority will be owne ccupied structures of one to four units.
� Some incentive for e t rior work will be built into the program,
but funds may be used fo b th interior and exterior work and include
landscaping improvements s well.
The program is struc u ed in tso parts= A) Small matcn�.nj grants
to property owners and B) argeted grants f or substantive rehab.
A total of $110�000.00 is r quested f or rehab money for both of these
components, with the $15, 0 . 00 balance of the total request allo�,at?d
Yor admin?_stration. The u'delines and features of the grant program
are de�eriLed below.

4. Project Description (continued)
###A. Matchin Grants. $80,000.00 allocation. Grants up to $3�0OO. 00
will e given to property owners for interior, exterior and lar.dsca��nC
improvements. Private match required for grants is based on a
graduated income scale and is proposed as f ollows :
1 ) No match is required for households where income is at or
below 50�0 of the median household income. (Limited to �1�,000)
2) 1 s 1 match is required for households where income is
51 - 60J of inedian household income.
3) : 1 match is required for households where income is
61 - 80 of inedian household income.
Households that exceed 80,� of inedian household income are not eligible
to receive grant money. but rehab investment that occurs on such
properties will be included as part of the neighborhood's private matcY:
Exterior Work - limited to visible aesthetic improvements - i.e.
painting, siding� p:orch reconstruction etc. - 2/3 of grant amount will
be made with no match requirement. The balance of grant amount will
adhere to the above guidelines.
Specific �oals of this �omponent are : 1 ) to spread rehab money
among a large number of properties and 2) to target large prominent
corner houses that have a visual impact on the block and neighborhood.
�*�B. Tar�eted E#rants for substantive rehab. $30,000.00 allocation.
Larger grants will be allocated for more extensive substantive rPhab
projects. Such ants will be targeted to 2 or 3 properties and range
from $10,000 to �15�000 per property. Private investment must exceed
the gran� amo�t by at least-.three _times the grant amount.
� Specifis �oals of this component are 1) to provide support for
st�bstantive rehab projects and ta�geted to d�plex and four-plex
structu�es that are vaca�t or have a l�istory of problems within the
.neighborhood. 2) to provide a catalyst fpr � somehwat stagnant real
estate activity in �his area.. Several properties have been on the
market for up to two years. but are not selling�because of the condi-
tion of the property. Rehab gr�nt money can be used as a tool and
resource to negotiate sale of ptoperties.
Desi�n assistanc.e by architects will be provided to property owners
to help: � with decisions concerning construction design� colors or
materials f�r exterior work. �

5. Briefly describe, the spec'fi problem/need your project is designed
to address and cite refere ces if possible from City Comprehensive Plans ,
Improvemen�s ltolal su�s�an�i�a�l ar ao� �i���,exh�amtneig�iborhood are more evider.�
in r�cent years with increased re ab activity and an influx og new homeowners-
�articularly in the sourthern or ion of the community. The blocks i,n the
northern end of t�e neighborho d� which are in the target area for this progra:�:
are much more vzlnerable. The ei hborhood is clearly less stable as evidenced
by the greater number of homes in need of repair, more homes f or sale f or lon��
periods of time and a higher n b r of absentee owners with little incentive
to maintain or fix up their pr e ties. According to the 1981 Housing Conditio
Report, 5-lOJ of residantial p op rties in Lex-Ham are in need of svbstantial
repairs. A more accurate asses m nt of a windshield survey in the target area
suggests that figure is 10-20�. iven that problem, this program responds to
the 1988-89 LHCC citisen partic p tion goals to locate more flexible resources
for home rehab for those not be n served by existing programs. Continued non-
investment in a neighborhood ca esult in a spiraling decline in housing qual-
ity, inviting undesirab actiy and makin�, it more challenging to preserve i

of your project.
1. To increase rehab activity n estment and act as a catalyst for ongoing
maintenance of residential r perty within the target area to prevent
further deterioration of ho s'ng and con�ribute to neighborhood stability.
2. To impro-�e the �hysical app � ance of blocks within the target area and

7. Briefly describe, in quanti ia le terms, the specific results and
impact your project will ac �e e when completed.
We anticipate that at least 'S roperties will participate in the program
at some level and generate $ 75 000 worth of privately leveraged funds into
the community to match $210, 00 of NPP funds.
Five to six prominent corner �o ses will be rehabbed with emphasis on
exterior work that will resu t n a visual impact to the surrounding blocks.
Approximately 700 hours of v �.0 teer time will go into the project over
two years to support and mon'to the project. (10 volunteers at an average
of three hours per month per vo unteer. )

12. Describe your organization - hist y, structure, membership, etc, and
its experience in managing simila p jects.
In the late 1960rs and early 1 70 s, residents came together over a nu�:ber
of issues ranging from high cr' e rates and falling property values to
—�ubstandard infrastructure to ' a equate recreational facilities and pro-
gramming. The �exington Hamli e ommunity Council was formed in 1968 and
they hired their first organiz r n 1973.
The LHCC has grown in two deca es from a volunt�er association of a hand
ful of neighborhood citizens t a paid membership of nearly 500 residents,
a 15 member Board of Directors wi h four standing committees� a full-time
Community Organizer and three- ua ter time administrative assistant� a full
time Park Director/Youth Super is r and numerous part-time recreation worke:
The Lexington Hamline Council as developed and now owns a� ee�en i�nit
7.ow income housing co-op, and 'ub equently has e�cp�erience in managing
a complicated project that req ir s considerable resident committment.
The Council and Community have de elpped a national as well as local
reputation as an innovative le de in grass roots based on social needs.
In the process it has gained t e espect of government, corporate and
philanthropic entities as an a gr ssive yet pragmatic champion of neigh-
borhood causes.
Since its formation, Lex-Ham h s uccessfully addressed the concerns which
brought about its creation as el as numerous other issues, thus halting
or reversing many of the aspec s f the earlier, negative trend.

13. Describe how your organization will manage this project - activities ,
responsibilities, membership participation, etc.
The Lexington-Hamline Community Council will have overall responsibility
for the Neighborhood Rehab Incentive Program. A project manager, supervised
by the LHCC Coordinator, will be hired to administer the program funds and
coordinate all aspects of the program implementation. The NPP committee.
comprised of Lex-Ham residents, will work directly with the project manager
and the community to publicize the program, obtain neighborhood pledges, refir.e
guidelines and review project applications. Periodic reports will be mace
to the Lex-Ham Council Board, rv.ith the project manager responsible for
coordination betw�en the NPP committee and the Board.
14. Who is the designated project manager? T O be hired
Describe his/her background, skills and experience in managing similar
type projects.
The project mana.ger position requires the following qualificationsa
- Administrative and community organizing skills,
- Knowledge of residential and commercial development resources and
process
- Ability to build community leadership and support for the program
- Sg�f mo'tivated and resourceful and an able problem-solver
- Eaee]�lent verbal and written conmiunication skills.
15. Describe the citizen participation process for this project.
The Neighborhood Rehab Incentive Program was initiated by residents
at a neighberhood pocket meeting within the tar.get area last summer.
From that point a core of volunteers recruited others (See attached
list) and decided to take the idea for an NPP proposal to the Lexing-
ton-Hamline Community Ccuncil. Receiving enthusiastic support from
the Council, the Working Group has proceeded to draft a survey and
develop the current proposal. Residents have divided up the 16 block
area and are currently in the process of conducting a survey of property
owners in the target area concerning their rehab plans and needs. Results
will be compiled in January.
The committee that has evolved will continue to work in close conjunction
with the Community Council, staff, and residents. aad the committee will
continue to play a strong role in carrying out the goals of the progra�r.,
and recruit others in the target area and through-out Lex-Ham to this
effort.

16. Will the project result in eithe t e returning of NPP funds to the
Neighborhood Partnership Progr or the recycling of NPP funds
within the project? Yes No X If Yes, describe.
Unlikely, however, if funde a d appropriate� may look into the
possibility of establishing th substantive rehab funds as loans
rather than grants. ($30,00 )
17. How does this proposal meet the 'nt nt and goals of the Neighborhood
Partnership Program:
The program was initiated d developed by residents to respond
to issues that they feel a mportant to the preservation and
improvement of their neigh or ood. It is designed to be flexible
in order to be tailored to i cumstances and opportunities that
are revealed throughout the p ogram time period.
The concentrated area was c o en to make an impact and provide
resources to residents who r most in need and less able to
participate in other progra s

ment for this neighborhood a d demonstrates the reside�t commitMent

10. What evidence is there that the abo e clarations are realistic?
(Business expansion and private develop ent proposals must demonstrate
the probability of private lender s po t. )
It is not unrealistic to ass e that 45 property owners, approximately
10� of the total number of pr p rties within the target area, �vill
complete rehabilitation proje t within the nest two years. Given
the grant incentive for subst n ial rehab }�ro�ects� this is also
a realistic source of private m ey. Residents are aware of and
prepar�d to target specific p op rties a�here circumstanc�s �:,a�tah
�h;: Fr��,�a�n. 0��15 .for Substar. iv rehab very closely and thus it
may act asmore of an incentiv iv th property owners.
Several property owners will os likely be making improvements
but not be receiving any gram m �ey, thus contributing totally•
to the match

,
NPP Application Page 2 Project Name Snelling/Randolph Improvement Project �
4. Project Description (continued)
Improvements for the Snelling/Randolph commercial cluster include streetscape
improvements, new facades for some buildings, creation of a� off-street surface
parking facility, and reconstruction of the intersection so that it can
accomnodate left turn lanes and signalization. These improvements will be done
in conjunction with the separation of sewers and associa.ted street paving.
The plans include construction of a parking lot through the city' s new Neighborhood
Parking financing Program. Left turn lanes on Snelling and left turn signalization
will be funded through the city' s capital budget. We are proposing that street
improvements be funded through the city's Neighborhood Partnership Program.
This commercial cl�ster needs to be "dressed up." Business people in the area,
however, have been reluctant to put money into cosmetic improvements, partly
because of the area's severe parking problems. Now that there is hope that
there will be an improvement in the area's parking problems, business people
are interested in putting money into revitalizing the cluster.
The Snelling/Randolph streetscape project will include decorative lighting,
facade improvement, new sidewalks, and elimination of the wood power poles. Trees
will be planted on boulevards in conjunction with the street work that will be
done in conjunction with sewer separation. Tree grates will be installed through
this PJPP Project.
The NPP grant will be used to reduce the cost of these improvements. The
remaining costs and the operating costs for the additional decorative lighting
will be paid by assessments to benefitting property owners.

5. Briefly describe, the specif c roblem/need your project is designed
to address and cite referenc s f possible from City Comprehensive P1ans ,
Annual Citizen Participation Go ls and/or other studies.
The problem that •vill be addressed i t e condition of this business cluster. It is clear
to both the community council and th 1 adership of the business corronunity that the success
of this cluster is directly related o he cluster's image. It appears that many customers
have "forgotten" this once successful cl ster- probably because it has become old and
unappealing. Revi�alization of this lu ter is particularly important now that several
other clusters in the nearby area hav b en dramatically improved.
The importance of successful business cl sters to the health of a neighborhood is noted in
the District 14 Plan. The need to re ol e tension between comnercial and residential
interests also is noted.
The Economic Development strategy of he city's Comprehensive Plan states that the
city shall continue to assist neighbo hoo commercial revitalization through provision of
public improvements.
6. Please list in order of prior ty the three most important objectives
of your project.
1. Enhancement and revitalizatia o a declining comnercial cluster.
2. Reduction of tension between es dential and comnercial interests in the area
through working together to e ha ce the Snelling/Randolph area.
7. Briefly describe, in quantifia e erms, the specific results and
impact your project will achie w en completed.
N.P.P. dollars will leverage i pr vements that otherwise would not happen.
These improvements could inclu e cade improvements to buildings, unified
and attractive signage, new li ti g, sidewalks, and boulevard trees. Additionally
we believe that enhancement of he commercial cluster will indirectly result
in the stimulation of improveme ts in nearby residential property. �

Snelling/Randolph Improvement Project
8. In order to accomplish your objectives does your project have to be `
coordinated with any other project/program? Yes�_No If
Yes, describe the other project/program and the �elationship.
The project must be coordinated with the street and sewer work planned for the area.
New decorative street lighting should not be installed until the street is
reconstructed.
9. Will this project be completed in 2 years? Yes No . If not,
explain how it will become self-sustaining without further NPP funding.
If the street and sewer work is completed in 1991, this project will be able
to be completed in two years. We have requested that Public Works attempt to
schedule this work in 1991 rather than 1992.
10. Will this project result in increased maintenance and operating costs?
Yes X No If Yes, explain how the project will
privately pay for those costs.
There will be some additional costs associated with the operation of the
decorative street lighting. These costs will be borne by assessment.

11. Will the project benefit low an mo erate income households?
Yes No X If Yes, descr be.
12. Describe your organization - his or , structure, membership, etc. and
its experience in managing simil r rojects.
The District 14 Corranunity Counci h s been in existence since 1981. The organization
works to identify issues in its re and then works to resolve tf�ose issues. It
is clear to the corr�nunity counci t at prosperous comnercial clusters are important
to the neigf�borhood as a whole. or this reason, the comnunity council in 1986
entered into a Neighborhood Part er hip Agreement with the Grand Avenue Business
Association and the City of St. au to undertake similar improvements in the
Grand Avenue West area. The co un ty council also has had a NPP grant to
do tree planting and stump remov 1 n arterial street� in District 14.
NPP Application Page 6 Project ,Name Snelling/Randolph Improvements
13. Describe how your organization will manage this project - activities ,
responsibilities, membership participation, etc.
The District 14 Community Council will work with the defunct South Snelling
Business Association leadership to re-establish that organization. The
Snelling/Randolph Improvement Project will have a planning corrmitt�e made up
of conununity council representatives (which will include people from the
residential neighborhood abutting the project area) and the reactivated
business association. This committee will determine what kind of decorative
lighting will be used, what the sidewalks will look like, what kind of tree grates.
The City of St. Paul will design the lighting system and sidewalks, . prepare and
let the bids and in�spect for conformance with construction documents. The
planning committee will work to encourage the many businesses to undertake
individual yet coordinated facade and signage improvements.
14. Who is the designated project manager? Katherine Tarnowski
Describe his/her background, skills and experience in managing similar
type projects.
She has been the project manager of two NPP Projects: the Grand Avenue West
Improvement Project and the District 14 arterial street tree planing and stump
removal project.
15. Describe the citizen participation process for this project.
The planning for this project as stated in #13 will be the process.

17. How does this proposal meet the i te t and goals of the Neighborhood
Partnership Program:
This project will leverage pr.ivat i provements in a commercial cluster
that has been declining due to a om ination of parking problems and cosmetic
problems. The leadership of the us ness community hopes to re-attract
customers into a commercial clust r hich has begun to look old and unappealing.

Artspace Projects, Inc. has eatablis ed a joint venture with two for-profit
developers to own and rehabilitate t e orthern Warehouse building at 308 Prince
Street for both residental and co� ci 1 usage. The purpose of thfs project is to
create affordable, code-complisat h s g for low income artiats and their families
and to provide a Workspace Improjtent ts oan so that low income artiats wi11 be
able to make their new space s�ital� �e or creating their art and making their living.
The Loan Program
The Loan Program fs an innovative a pr ach to the problems similar ventures in the
past have preseatai to the low inc e rtist who moved into a project, but did not
have enough moneq ta build the nece sa y improvements to make their living. It
also means that outgoing artists wi l ot be as interested in recouping their
investment to their unit negating t e roblem of larger and larger transfer fees
for low income artists to move into th project. This program also allows the
artists to take the important step f aking their studio safe for their particular
art form against toxic fumes, etc. I order to qualify for a loan from the program,
an artist must be a resident of th N rthern Warehouse. To apply, an artist will
submit a project description and b klg t to Artspace, as well as complete a standard
loan application form. Approval b ! t e resident cooperative and compliance with
building codes will be required.

4. Project Description (continued)
Artists already selected for occupancy at the Northern Warehouse have identified
this program as an extremely important element of the projeet and have expressed
the need for adding extra ventilation, increased electric voltage, a soundroom,
a darkroom, track lighting and a kiln, among other varied needs.
The Comprehensive Plan for District 17 states that "lowertown is envisioned as an ideal
location for additional housing, as well as for the cont�nuation of arts-related
activity". Artsapce is well positioned to be an effective link between the progressive
housing development community and the potential artist residents. Over the past
ten years Artspace has worked very closely with particularly low income artists
who are arriving in the Ttain Cities from the greater Upper Midwest and with those
artists who have been dispalced by more recent development in the Lowertown area.
Artspace worked closely with the Lowertown Lofts Limited Partnership from 1983 to
1986 in developing the 29 artist studio/housing units at 255 East Rellogg. Since
that time more displacement of artists has occurred, isolating the artists at
255 East Kellogg and leading man artists to live in unsafe, substandard conditions.
Artspace's Referral Service has recorded a great increase in the number of artists
seeking live/work space. Owing to the growing number of low-income, maturing
artists who now have families and a strong need to live in a safe, organized
community; now is the time to act.
Marketing
Artspace already has deposits from 31 artists to reserve a place in the project and
has received inquiries from as many more and expects the project to be fully leased
by construction completion. The Artspace Selection Committee, which inc}.udes a
representative from the City of St. Paul and two members of the Lowertown Lofts
Membership Committee, has already started selecting artists for residency at the
Northern Warehouse.
Project Financing
The Jerome Foundation invited Artspace to submit a proposal for $100,000 to be used
for a Northern Warehouse Tenant Improvements Loan or for equity in the project.
Currently, the Foundation is reviewing the request. Of the $3.1 million project
costs, the City of St. Paul has commiitted $629,000 of their Rental Rehab Funds
to the project. Staff at the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency are recommending
financing of a first mortgage in the amount of $1.7 million to their Board. The
remaining $900,OOQ is expected to be financed by private investors making use of the
low income and historic tax credits. 'Ifao equity pools have submitted written
proposals to the partnership and the local Corporate Equity Fund has invited
the partnership to submit a proposal.

5• Briefly describe, the specific p ob em/need your project is designed
to address and cite references i p ssible from City Comprehensive Plans,
Annual Citizen Participation Goa s nd/or other studies.
The rehabilitation of the building will p ov e safe, secure family housing
opportunities for low income artists and e rovision of the Northern Warehouse Loan
Program will ensure that artists will be le to pursue their livelihood, pay the
rent in the building and remain in Lowerto The pr�ject wil address the need
expressed in the 1985 Amendment to the Co re ensive Plan for powntown St.Paul
which calls for "the continued development of housing in the Mears Park area" and
"reinforcing the area's (potential) reside ti 1 identity" by establishing "a
smaller area with a sufficient coneentrati n f housing opportunities and related
amenities." The Workspace Improvement All wa ce also meets the Citizen Participation
District Goals for 1988-89 (DCDC 5/88 Repo t) to "provide a positive business
climate", and "give encouragement to exist ng businesses to stay and expand in
Saint Paul." Although there are no specif c tudies which put dollar amounts on
arts activities, one study conducted in Bo to states that in 1986 �500 million of
economic activity was generated from the n n- rofit arts sector in that city. 1The
level of arts activity in the 'l�ain Cities s onsidered to be compara�le tq Boston.
6. Please list in order of prioritg th thret most impo�tant o jectives
of your project.
1. Respond to the needs of low income art st by providiag them the opportunity to
make leasehold improvements necessary to m ke their spaces suitable for creating
their art.
2. With workspace improvements in glace, na le low income artists to increase their
income potential and thus their self-suffi ie cy.
3. Enhance the "Urban Village" feel of Lo er wn where peogle live and work (a notion
consistent with the local district council) � ile it preservea the historic arts
activity of this area, possibly generating t r economic development activity.
7. Briefly describe, in quantifiable te a, tha sp�eific results and
impact your pro_ject will achieve he complete�.
"'he -evolving nature of the Loan Fund �ill ro uce aE least; double the worth in improve-
ments for the tenaats. For example, �100,0 0 f loan moneg from the NPP will result in
approximately �20Qs000 worth of lease hold p ovementa, with ;100,000 being returned to
the City in regular payments after the firs f ve years.
Up to approximately �6,000 worth of improve en s per unit to generate economic activity
in up to 52 units in the Northeru Warehouse bu lding in Lowertowa over the life of the loan.
Increased private foundation investment in ow rtown of $100,000. (Matching funds from
the Jerome Foundation) .
Increased arts related small business activ ty in Lowertown resulting $x economic activity.
Recycling of public funds solves the proble o providing workspace for low income
artists as well as housing.

8. In order to accomplish your objectives does your project have to be
coordinated with any other project/program? Yes X No If
Yes describe the other ro ect ro ram and the relation h
Implementation of the Workspaceplm�rov��en� Allowance program w�l�P'require support
and servicing from Artspace Projects staff. The great advantage of a revolving fund
is that, as the loaned money is repaid, it can continue to leverage additional loans
for workspace improvements and then be returned to the Neighborhood Partnership
Program, therefore multiplying the value of the initial dollar.
9. Will this project be completed in 2 years? Yes No X If not,
explain how it will become self-sustaining without further NPP funding.
Any loan made to a low income artist wil be made during the first five years of the
program; thereafter, Artspace will collect all loans from the artists and pay this
amount back to the NPP project on a semi-annual basis.
,
10. Will this project result in increased maintenance and operating costs?
Yes No If Yes, explain how the project will
privately pay for those costs.
Any increased costs of maintenance for improvements (i.e. , increased utility costs)
will be figured into the artist resident's monthly housing (rental) payment.

12. Describe your organization - hist ry, structure, membership, etc. and
its experience in managing simila p jects.
Artspace Pro,jects, Inc. is the first orga iz tion in the country to help the arts
community develop. and secure long-term co tr 1 of space. �ounded in 1978 in response
to the recommendation of the Minneapolis rt Commision, Artspace has stimulated the
rehab�litation and financing of 250,000 s ua e feet of previously vacant or under used
property. Over 4,500 artists and 180' art o ganizations have received guidance and
information through its services to the a ts community. Artspace approaches St. Paul
in a city-wide manner, talking tb communi y rganizations and neighborhood plannfng
councils to ascertain their interest in i i idual artists moving into under utilized
space in the short term and developing cl st rs of low-income artist families in renovated
duplexes in the long run.
The Artspace mission is to assist in the oc tion, development and management of artists'
living and working, exhibition, performan e nd s'upport services. Through its consulting
and reference services, Artspac� strives o ring together artists of all disciplines
to create a "synergy" or collected energy th t in turn benefits each artist individually.
Bt transforming under utilized bufldings nt safe and affordable space for the arts,
Artspace contributes to stability, opport ni y and growth within the arts community and
local neighborhooda. Nationally, aad loc 11 in the Lowertowa warehouse district of
St. Paul and in the North Loog area of Mi ne polis, the pioneering efforts of artists
have stimulated t$e redevelopment of marg na areas of the urban core. Artspace has played
a major role in tbe revitalization proces o both these neighborhoods.
In 1985, Artspace Pro�ects served as a c su tant to the St. Paul Art Collective in
planning, developing, and implementing t L wertown Lofts Project. This $1.5 million
project created 29 artist lofts on three �lo rs of a warehouse at 255 East Kellogg Blvd.
Artists become members of Artspace for 2 ;�/ month periods during which they receive
listings of avalable living and working �a e. Member artists often volunteer their

13. Describe how your organization will manage this project - activities.
responsibilities, membership participation, etc.
The Artspace Board of Director will oversee the project. The Executive Director has the
daily function of managing the Artspace activities and the Director of Real Estate is
responsible for oversight of development and resident coordination on this project. The
Business Manager will closely monitor and perform collections of the revolving loan fund.
If an artist could obtain a loan today, he or she would pay, at best, a 157 interest rate
under present market rate conditions. Initial loan from the revolving loan fund will be
made on a sliding scale basis with 7� being the highest interest amount and approximately
27 being the lowest. Loans will be amortized over five years or less, with each artist
making interest and principle payments mounthly. Under extreme circumstances, loans
may be amortized over longer periods, however, we will attempt to keep the amortizations
as short as possible, allowing a faster payback to the NPP.
14. Who is the designated project manager? Janet Pope, Director of Real Estate Dev.
Describe his/her background, skills an� experience in managing similar
type projects.
Ms. Pope served for four years at the West Bank Community Development Corporation in
Minneapolis. As Assistant Housing Developer and Co-op Management Specialist, she super-
vised a development budget of $4.5 million for a 92-unit rehab project. In addition to
her current work, Ms. Pope continues to serve as a housin and development consultant.
Mr. Lindquist has had ten years of management eaperience at the Dayton Hudson Corp. and
as Facilities Director for the Guthrie Theater. He has been the Executive Director of
Artspace Projects for nearly two years.
Mr. Nordyke has had six years of non-profit financial management as a Administrator for
the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota and nearly two years as
Business Manager for Artspace Projects.
15. Describe the citizen paxticipation process for this project.
This project will be implemented in close ccordination with the Downtown Community Development
Council with Ms. Mary Krueger of the Communfty Organizer. Artspace Projects will proceed
with the project only upon the support of this citizen group. Artspace will also work in
coordination with the residents of the Lowertown Lofts, one of whom, Mr. Seitu Jones,
currently sits on the Board of Directors of Artspace Pro,jects.
The future residents of the project wfll participate in the planning of the units and the
ongoing management of the project through the leasehold cooperative. The Artspace Board
of Directors, many of whome work within downtown St. Paul, will ensure that the project remain=
true to the mission of Artspace and also remains consistent with the Development Council's
goals of encouraging more housing within the Lowertown area which in turn may encourage
more amenities and commercial activity, in keeping with the efforts of the City of St.
Paul in Lowertown.

16. Will the project result in th r the returning of NPP funds to the
Neighborhood Partnership Pr gr or the recycling of NPP funds
within the project? Yes x o If Yes, describe.
The Workspace Improvement Loan Fun w 11 be recycled within the program and after five
years will be returned to the NPP un as the loans are repaid.
17. How does this proposal mee t e intent and goals of the Neighborhood
Partnership Program:
The Workspace Improvements Loan F nd creates a partnership of cooperative efforts among
the City, the artists, many o� wh m ill provide sweat equity to improve their spaces,
and a foundation (s) who we hope il fund half of the program. Therefore, the
Program i s prnmoting nei ghborhoo s 1 f-rel i ance not ortly ta imp�^ove the units but to
improve their economic potential i is leveraging private improvement dollars,
providing flexibility to meet in iv dual needs and "coordinating pbulic and private

Artspace r jects, Inc.
Revolvi g oan Fund
Ov r iew
Often times, the primary hurdl o securing a loan from a private
lender for an artist is the f c that he/she � an artist. Even
for arts organizations, the u p edictability of artistic success
and lack of suitable collater 1 ives lenders the impression that
art is a high-risk prospe t It was in response to this
unf avorable climate that Ar sp ce developed and administered a
Revolving Loan Fund from 1982 19 6 .
The Revolving Loan Fund was ev loped to assist the Twin Cities
arts community in meeting he costs of labor , materials and
equipment needed to creat r renovate • space for artistic
purposes. The Fund was initi te with a challenge grant from the
Dayton Hudson Foundation and fu ds from a Minneapolis Community
Development Block Grant which f rmed an equity pool of $25 ,709.
The great advantage of a r vo ving fund is that as the loaned
money is repaid, it is place ack into the equity pool and can
continue to be used to lev r ge additional loans for artistic
purposes. The revolving aspe t has the effect of multiplying the
value of the initial dollar, si ce that dollar can be circulated
several times to several diff rent projects. In addition, when
the equity pool is administe e by �a concerned organization, the
funds can be kept within a ar et community and tailored to the
particular needs of that com un ty.
Structurally, a Fund can be e -up many different ways, however,
there are some basic issues th t need to be addressed no matter
what structure is chosen.
-Loan Terms: Generally, lo ns from the Artspace fund were
made at 7$ or less. Du t the non-profit structure of the
granting and administer ng organizations, loans can be made
at rates that are subst n ially below market rate. This has
obvious benefits to the c mmunity being served.
-Target Markets: While h target market may change over
time, it is important t a it be identified so that the loan
resources can be focuse ithin the target community to
produce the greatest be e it for that community.
. ��—�`�
� /7
-Amortization: Loans sh ul be amortized over as short a
period as possible, usu 11 5 years or less, so as to
replenish the equit pool sufficiently to maintain a
substantial enough rese ve to continue to leverage more
projects.
-Leverage: The loans sh ul be structured so that they will
leverage as large a per en age of the project as possible.
Generally, the Fund sho ld not lend more than 85$ of the
total project cost. Th s orces other "resources" to become
involved and helps magn fy the effect of every loaned
dollar.
These , combined with a esponsible set of criteria for
determining the credit w r hiness of the artist or arts
organization, can provide a e y effective tool for the economic
development of a target co m nity. Under such circumstances,
even limited resources can b u ed to achieve projects that would
not otherwise be feasible.
Contrary to the fears and pe c tions of the majority of private
lending institutions , Art p ce ' s lendinq relationship with
artists and arts organiz t ' ons has been a good one . The
following figures on the six lo ns that Artspace made from 1982-
1986 demonstrate this.
Loan # Amount Rate ort ' Repavment
1 $25,458 3$ 7 months 100$
2 $2, 313 3$ 5 months 100$
3 $1,400 2 .9$ 2 months 100$
4 $6 ,000 2.9$ 0 months 1008
5 $4,650 7$ 8 months 100$
6 $5,210 7$ 60 months 100$
With an equity pool of on y $25 ,709 , Artspace was able to
complete $123,572 worth of sp c improvements over 5 years. This
was accomplished through th u e of leverage and the revolving
nature of the Fund. Furtherm re, at the end of the 5 year period
the initial $25,709 was sti 1 in tact and could have continued
to be used for even more proj ct .
Revolving Loan Funds like the on described above have the unique
ability to give to a comm nity, and continue to give to a
community, far beyond the ' �i ial dollars designated for the
equity pool . For this reason ' t ey are one of the most effective
and efficient economic develo pme t tools at our disposal .
