Council President Victor Tedesco and
t�embers of the City Council
7th Floor City Nail
Saint Paul , Minnesota 55102
Dear Counci] President Tedesco and Members:
i am transmittino the budget requests from the citizen participatian districts
for the period beginning July 1, 1983 and ending June 30, 1984 for City Councii
reviear and action.
My recommendations €or funding the citizen participation districts are also '
attached. You wi11 note that my recommendations are in concur�^ence with the
District Councils' Forum formula allocation. Allocating citizen participation
funds by formula is more objective arc� reduces the funding disparities among r
districts. � majority of the District Councils based their budget requests on �
the formuia amount.
1'he formula allocation is designed to be phased in over a three-year period.
�or this '83-'84 period, it requires a �otal increase of $17,780 or 5.1q. A
like amount would be requ�red for the subsequent two years. Last year there
was a 3.1� increase and the year before there was an increa�e of 1PSS than 1%,
well below the inflation rate.
7he Community Development Division requested a list of goals and activities
from the District Counciis. Copies of the lists submitted are attached. The
contribution citizens make to the City of Saint Paul through the citizen
participatidn process is remarkable and has increased since the inception of
Distr9ct Councils, as T'm sure you are aware,
I hope the City Council finds the attached information helpful in your
de�fiberations regarding funding of citizen participation activities.
Please feel free to contact me, Wfliiam Q. Patton or Jerry Jenkins of the
Community Oevelopment Division and/or the Budget Section with any questions
yau may have.

C. P. District # � � Date: May 4, 1q83
t. Statement or list of your C.P. District Goals and Objectives for 1983-84:
District 1 will continue to facilitate knowledgeable participation of
residents and businesses in the definition and solution of the area's problems
and the maximizing of its potential. This will be done with the District 1
News, flyers, informational presentations , neighborhood meetings, etc.
2. List of nei hborhood activities currentl bein carried out which will be
continued in 1983 - $ :
Council time (staff and volunteer) continues to be focused on the concerns
(p�iysical and economic) involved with the development of the District's few
remaining vacant or underused commercial sites and the Nighwood residential
area. The Highwood Capital Improvement Committee will continue to try to paan
for design, implementation a��d payment of the extension and imarovement of that
areas streets and sewers. �
The District 1 News moves toward grcater financial independence and with continued
responsibie management and editing it should not only provide the area with
news but perhaps begin to share some of the Council 's costs. The paper/Council
are encouraging the development of a Community Calender and coordination of
event scheduling.
The Battle Creek drainage project nears completion, however; insuring the
proper restorafiion and carefully staged reuse will become an important District
Council task. Likewise "overseeing" the Sun Ray Library restoration project
and Burns Avenue Park development are seen as Council responsibilities.
The District Council will continue to encourage boulevard tree planting and
Residential Street Improvement Program participation. We foresee difficulty
with this goal because of city policy ambiguities and a general public unwill-
ingness to share public costs.
Resolution of an effort to have the Public Utilities Commission change its
telephone rate tiers to give approximately half of the District's residents the
same phone rate as now charged the rest of St. Paul.
3. List of neighborhood activities which you hope. to begin in 1983 - 8�+:
The lack of a community center continues to be a problem for the area. We
hope to be abte to propose a solution cont�ining some combination of these
� elements: Sun Ray Library; Conway Recreation Center; YMCA; local corporate or
foundation assistance. The iocation of a movie theater in the Sun Ray area will
also be investigated.
The deve�opment of two leaf composting windrows. in the �istrict with the help
and on the land of Ramsey County.
Formation of block clubs to combat neighborhood crime, apathy and lack of
personal social support systems.
Pursue the construction of sidewalks in areas of hi.gh pedestrian�MTC use.
The benefits will include not only safety but also needed jobs.

Dear Jerry,
I would like to apologiz.e for our not submitting our 1983-84 goals and
our 1982-83 activities with our proposed budget for next year. It had
been anticipated that our board of directors would be adopting our goals
for the coming year at our May board meeting which was held last Thursday
evening, May 19. That, however, was tabled until our June u{eeting
Our goals for the 1982-83 year included 1) reforestation and stump removal,
2) promotion of neighborhood crime prevention efforts, 3) promotion af
recycling and 4) resolution of traffic and parking problems on and near
Grand Avenue. Our_ council has only one required standing committee: the
District 14 Long Range Planning Committee, a committee charged with
implementing and/or revising the District 14 Plan. Our other committees
are determined by our goal setting process. In addition to the committees
charged with implementing our gaals, our board last year also established
a Housing and Land Use Committee which is charged with reaction to zoning
and other land use matters.
In addition to working with immediate neighbors of various land use issues
on those issues, our activities in the past f iscal year have included:
1) our 1982 and 1983 citizen initiative tree planting projects, 2) our
1982 and 1983 stump removal projects, 3) establishment and promotion of
our Crime Watch 14 effort, 4) seeking funding for and working with several
other councils to put together our Neighborhood Crime Prevention Fair,
5) working with Community Education to provide classes in crime prevention,
6) working with Recycling Unlimited to promote recycling in the district,
� 7) promotion of home energy audits in cooperation with the Neighborhood
Energy Project (won a Golden Sun Award for this), 8) participation in the
Grand Avenue West Task Force of the Planning Commission to develop a
comprehensive plan for Grand Avenue west of the Short Line, 9) partieipation
in the College of St. Thomas Joint Committee on Community Relations 10)
seeking funding and putting together a three day bicycle safety event for
children, l�put on a Children's Carnival at the 1982 Grand O1' Day, 12)

Mattocks Park, 13) participation in the St. Paul School District's Integration
Review Committee, 14) participation on the Rand Advisory Committee and
Assessments Committee, 15) participation in the CIB process, 16) participation
in the District Councils' Forum. Additionally, we write a regular column
in the Highland Villager and the Merriam Park Post, work with 3ournalism
students at area colleges to help them better understand neighborhood
participation in local political processes, and work wit� local Scout troups
to help these young people become effectively involved in important community
service projects.
Althaugh this is not a complete laundry list of our council's activities the
past year, it should give you a pretty good idea of the range of our
activities. We shall submit a list of �ur goals for 1983-$4 as soon as
they have been established.
If you have any questions regarding our goals or activities, please do
not hesitate to give us a call.
Sincerely,
