re: Appraisal of Cohansey St.
properties
Council President Victor Tedesco
and Members of the City Council
7th Floor City Hall
St � Paul, MN 55102
Dear Council Members:
Attached is Council File 84-62 , dated January 17, 1984, which
resolution i veto.
The attached resolution is identical to Council File 280997,
dated October 6, 1983, which resolution I also vetoed.
The resolution and its predescessor order appraisal of certain
parcels of privately-owned property. The resolution gives
as the reason for ordering the appraisal the possible acquisition
of the parcels for bluff preservation.
The issue of acquiring the subject parcels has been reviewed
extensively over the last several years. The responsible
departments, Community Services (Division of Parks and
Recreation) and Planning and Economic Development (Planning
Division) , do not find that it would be in the public interest
to acquire the subject properties. Based on their analyses
and recommendations, therefore , I have not presented to the
City Council a request for acquisition of the properties nor
have I authorized the Department of Finance and Management
Services (Valuations and Engix�eering Division) to undertake an
appraisal for purposes of acquisition.
The subject properties are not on the Wheelock Pkwy. bluff
and are not needed for scenic view preservation. The assertion
that the acquisition of the properties was listed as number
one priority of the District 6 Planning Council on April 8,
1983, is of limited relevance . Subsequent review of that
neighborhood priority by the Capital Improvement Budget Committee ' s
task forces and the committee itself found the acquisition to
be not of high priority.
Furthermore , Valuations Engineer J. William Donovan advises
�°�°
r • `
� •
Council Members page 2 January 23, 1984
me that the appropriate procedure for acquisition of property
is to hold a public hearing on the proposal. The City Council
held such a public hearing on August 21, 1979, and determined
at that point not to acquire the property.
I admit that the amount of money involved in appraising the
property is not large . The parcels could probably be appraised
at a cost for the appraisal services of a few thousand dollars.
There is a principle here , however, to which I wish to draw
your attention: It is not my intent to provide at public cost
a benefit of several thousand dollars to a private individual
for appraisal of property which the City does not, at this
point, intend to acquire. Neither the CounciZperson who in-
troduced the resolution nor the owner of the property have
brought to .my attention any facts or data beyond that which
was presented to me in October . In other words, nothing has
been added which reveals a public interest in the acguisition
of the property.
Attached is a copy of my �etter of October 11, 1983 .
Sincerely,
...
