Dear John:
We call your attention to a letter dated 9/15/78(attached)
addressed to Mayor Latimer authored by the Daytons Bluff Community
Council addressing disturbance over the planning approach of the �
� Swede Hollow project which askeci that short of dropping the project
completely money be used to develop a comprehensive plan and the
remainder of the money be held back. Since that time citizens from
both Daytons Bluff and P�}rne/Phalen have worked closely with both
liistrict 4 & 5 and the Community Services Division and now feel that
agreement has been reached by all concerned. With that in mind, we
support and recommend the release of the Comc�unity Development funds
- allocated for Swede Hollow in the amount of $80,000.00.

Mayor George latimer September 15, 1918
Room 347 - City Hall
St. Paul , Minnesota 55102
Dear Mayor Latimer:
We want to reiterate our position on Swede Hollow, pro3ect C-16 on 1979
CD funding, as stated in our meeting on September 7, 1979 in your
, office.
. We are askinq you to drop Swede Hollow funding for the time
bei nq.
. We suqgest that the money be used on another pro�ect (hopefully
Parkway League and Da,yton's Bluff Playground Equipmentl but we
see no conflict in our community if the money is allocated to
_ other pro3ects.
The reasons for the above position is based on the following:
. Corarnunity rated Swede Hollow 14 out of 14.
. No considerations were made for the safety and 11fe support
services in the Hollow.
. It would create a ma3or new problem area in our community as the
"plan" is conceived.
.. Topoqraphic problems were not considered (most improvements were
washed out this spring). �
. CD process not followed.
We want to call the followinq facts to your attention, facts that your
staff mis-informed you on:
. District 5 did NOT rate Swede Hollow. •
. Payne-Minnehaha Community Council did NOT consider this pro�ect.
. CD committee inspected the Hollow from the SOUTH entry. No
information was provicied about North side. this is alleged, as
we only have 3 people's statements).
. � ,a�� � ��:.
� � �c��"°��
,�,,,
�
/ Mayor George Latimer -2- September 15, 1978
. Police Department was NOT consulteA about security. (They
support our position) .
. Fire Department was NOT consulted. (They did inspect the Hollow
as part of their onqoinq analysis).
, . Unsiqned documents should have no value in a funding
deliberation.
We are disturbed at the planninq approach of this pro3ect. Normal
business practice is to establish a specific plan/proposal and then go
after the funds, not vice versa.
We are recommending that Swede Hollow be dropped at this time. If this
is politically impossible for you, we would recomnend that a sum of
money be used to develop a comprehensive plan and the remainder of the
money be held back. We are also assuming that all concerned parties.
. will have input into the comprehensive plan.
Respectfully,
_ � �,,, . ( � {
