Since late las�� year, .the Nationa.l Center for State Courts h�as been - co3�ucting an extensive jury study .for the courts in ftamsey. The focus of the project ras stretched from a review of the 3uror se3ection process to improved. information and management spstems. _ . The final report is due �_by late summer. and will be reviewed by the full.. Bench. . . .. :� � : . - - _ - �_ Collaterally,: a number�_of. change� have beea inxt�ated independently�� - _ by the Court Qver the past pear to �improve the �ury spstem. The . � - � juror orientatiQn program has become more in�orma.tive, the term � of service for�jury� dutp;has beea: reduced from two weeks to one week;: and a aepr �uror��:handbook. has been prepared. . _- = -.. , ; ..� . :;. ; . , : . . , � :. . _ ._ - � , Many.=of these cha.nges;°,aad. others .which will be� occasioned. in the � _ future, are improvements-.�in -procedures, processing, and in�ormation � �_ needs; and as such,�� often �involve onlp minimal expenses. Same - - changes, however, will .occasion greater costs, but are necessarg - aad unavoidable. In this respect, on behalf of the Court, T. am - submitting this request-: �or remodeling of the 8t1� Floor Jurp - Assignment (Assembly) Room. . � . , . ' It is felt that such a change is in the bes� interests o� the CotzntSrt will provide �or more �acceptable conditions �or �urors and wi,ll promote a smoother functioning jurp spstem. � . ..� � f!�.' ' . - . . �� . i• * Page Two Jury Assignment Room Remodeling � The request is made at this time rather thaa at the conclusion . � - of the jury study for several reasons. - - First, the Court feels that the Assembly Room conditions. �or � jurors have been sub-sta.ndard for some time a.nd to continue the situation any longer is a disservice to the more than 44U0 - jurors who serve annually. In this respect, numerous complaints - are received each year regarding the inadequate .facilities. This - -� is excuseable in smaller �urisdictions, but not in a high-volume, _ metropolitan court such as Ramsey. Secondly, detailed remodeling plans bave been developed, are . acceptable to the Court, and fit with the overall changes envisioned in the jury study. The Ellerbe Architectural Firm, a sub-contractor with the National Center on the project, - and the firm designing the 16th floor Court Remodeling Project, completed, to the satisfaction of the Court, the initial design plans. . � � Thirdlp, some form of remodeling must be initiated since i� is � pla.nned that the present bench seating in the 8th floor jurp � assignment �oom will be removed and used as courtroom seating on the 16th floor, saving� the C�unty an e�timated $25,000 in that project. - . ' � . . . . Lastly, any long-term delay occasions higher overa.11 cons�ructa.on and renovating costs: Also, remodeling, since it is c�uite __ limited, can be accomplished with the least .amoun�: of disrupti�an ` to court schedules over the summer months. (The removaZ o� �he -� seating� is scheduled-�or July. ). . � - , JIIRY ASSIGNMENT �{A�SSFI�BLY)";�tOO�d RE�iODEI;II�G - . _' The Judges of both the Distr3ct and Countp Municipal Courts have - formallp endorsed the attached remodeling pla.n and have asked me to work with pou towa.rd its implementation. As you will note, the only structural change suggested is some � � minor reconstruction o# the �udge�s bench to permit the space behind it to be more fully utilized.�; No other structural changes are envisioned, in order to keep costs low and not prohibit the use o� tfie space �or other purposes somet�.me irz the future, if necessarp, � w :` '�' � -1 . . • , �• � , Pa�e Three � Jurp Assignment Room Remodeling � ' Larry Brown and .Mr. . Griller have had a chance to discuss the proposal briefly. Also, both the Historical Society and Building - �• Superintendent:�:s Office have been a.dvised regaxding the possible project and find no problems with it. The projected cost is �52,031.82, which provides for , . final design and specification �vork as well as ca.pital outlaF and construc�ions'�costs. �'le will be �happy to meet � - . � with the Board Committee on Finance or :the Commissioners ' as a group �,rior tq the regularly schedtaled meetings if pou �vish.

Houa of the City Council City Hall , Seventh Floor St. Paul , Minnesota 55102 RE: Transmittal of the Qistrict 7 P�an to the City �Council Dear Council President Hozza and members of the City Council : On April 27, 1979, after holding a public hearing, the Planning Commission certified the District 7 Plan. It is the fourth general district plan to be certified by the Planning Commission. District plans are proposed amendments to the comprehensive plan, and must be adopted by the City Council before they come into legal effect. "Certification" by the Planning Commission represents their recommendation to the Mayor and the � City Council that the plan should be adopted. I am distributing to you copies of the plan for review preparatory to your public hearing in the District. The Distri�ct 7 Plan has already undergone an extensive review process. It was approved by the Thomas Dale District 7 Planning Council and the community at large. It was circulated by the Planning Commission to City departments and agencies, both as a preliminary plan and in its present form. It was also circulated to all adjacent districts. Mr. Bellus, in his letter to me, made a special comment on the District 7 Plan. The Planning Commission did not. certify the District 7 positions - on tax assessment policy, Dale Street 4ridening, and education. The - district's positions are left in the general district plan exactly as it was adopted by the community council . The Planning Commission's � explanations of why it did not certify these district recommendations is given on the colored inserts in the report. The Planning Commission recommends that you adopt the plan in this manner, so that the district's positions will be shown in the report but will not be adopted as policies in the comprehensive plan of the city. I am impressed by the understanding of city issues and the dedication of the residents toward their own communities. T am pleased to transmit their District Plan to you.

This document stat�s goais, proposals, and background information for the community's � physical , social , and economic development. A longer � report, the preliminary form of thi5 plan, contains more information and summarizes data used to make decisions about � ` goals and proposals. This longer document, entitled � the "District 7 Background Report", can be obt�i�ed from - the City Planning Office, 421 Wabasha, .298-4151. � : �` _ � � . K . . E D The Thomas-Dale area, also known as �rogtown, was first � sEttled in the 1870's, and was the home of G�rman, Polish, and Scandinavian inmigr�nts who worked fo� the railroad � and.other early industries in St. Paul . Frog�own still � ' serves the purpose of housin� working people, many of � whom are descendants of the immigrants. _ � "` � . . E - _ The first area to be settled in Frogtown w�s the area � roughly bounded by Rice S�Creet on the east, Minnehaha � Avenue on the north, University Avenue oh the south, and Dale Street on the west. The oldest structures are j generally south of Thomas Avenue, i�fluenced by University ]� Avenue being the first access route into the �rea. By 1905, the street car lines were well develo�ed, and more � � homes were being built west of Dale Street and east of � Rice Street. Most homes between Lexington and Chatsworth were built during the boom of the 1920's. By the tir� the ��' Depression hit the United States in the late 20's, Frog- , town was almost fully developed. . l . . N IG ORHO D REVITALIZATION ACTIVITIES - � After the early urban renewal programs, the Neighborhood Developm�nt Program (NDP) was established. Frogtown was � jone of the St. Paul neighborhoods chosen, in 1969, to be -- �, an NDp area. The objective was to make the �neighborhood a better place to live, to work, and to do business by f alleviating some very specific problems. _ �� - l � �'. � � 1 i � �.�..,�,...�..,m.._.,.�,.��.,.. _.�._..�._._,,....-�.^,�.,. _ � . � . � � _ � , . _ , _ . , . _ . __.... � _ - NDP activities, and more recent activities under the . " � Cor�anunity Development Block Grant program, have accomplished � a lot in Frogtown. Many deterior�ted strUctures have been . removed and replaced with new housing; programs of con- - centrated rehabilitation have improved existing housing; the � . business climate has been improved; and some public improv- ' ` . , ments have been constructed. There is much more to be done. � � ` � .3 RO WN 0 Housing in D�strict consists mast y b s�ng e-family homes, with commercial areas on its major streets. A�out half of HOUSING the housing units in the area are owner-occupied. Frogtown's � � � - �- - � - housing stock plays a key role in,St. Paul , being affordable - to working people with modest means: ' ` . . + � _ - About 13� of District 7 s population is over 65 years of � age. : The area .has experienced a decline in population 1960-1970, and estimates indicate a further decline 1970-75. � POPUt,ATION However, St. Paul 's population 'is expected to level off and become more stable� by the early 1980's, and this trend . , should include Frogtown. u EMPLOYMENT - District 7 workers fall mainly in the blue-collar categor�ies. � . . About 68� of them work within the St. Paul city limits. . . . � _ . _ - - �_ '' � _ _ � __ , . , . _ - , � - , ; � - ' - � � � 1 - � � . ,2 � �♦ . � � PLAN 2.0 PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT � � � � .1 S N .1. G A S � '{. To use the available public and privat� resources to improve District 7's neighborhoods according to their particular needs. �� 2. To encourage home-ownership in District 7. 3. To encourage adequate home maintenance in order to keep neighborhoods in good condition. [ _ � : � . . � . The city and the District 7 Planning Councll should � implement the Residential Improvement Strategy in District � 7. See Figure 2-1 . The first priority areas would be: � � NORTH CAPITOL AREA 1. Rice/Marion and the North Capitol Area. This should � continue to be a cooperative proaect with aarticipation from the city of St. Paul , State of Minnesota, Capitol � Area Architectural And Planning Bbard and �istrict 7 �� Planning Council. , ITA AREAS 2. . Identified Treatment Area east of Arundel .and north of �� Thomas. This basically sound single family area is adjacent to several previously completed housing improvement programs. �� - ->;,: 3. Areas east of the Thomas-Dale ITA, between Grotto and Dale Streets. The Thomas-Dale ITA was completed in 1977. To the east of it is another area whith �� would respond well to the same type of treatment. 4. Implerr�ntation activities in the Conservation I and �� II areas and Improvement I areas should be on-going, and do not require a major public investmet�t except where street and related improvements are concerned. � Public investment in street improvements wou�d in- � spire both public and private confidence in these areas. �� ST. ADALBERT'S 5. Area around St.� Adalbert's Church, south of Thomas � between Western and Marion. Project planning needs to be completed in blocks around St. Adalbert's . (� Church, including possibilities• for renovation, _ t street vacation, etc. Consultation with residents or those blocks should be included. - � ST. ANTHONY HILL - 6. The Department of Public Works has begun to design the � 'll Storm Sewer ro'ect, which is needed STORM SEWER St. Anthony H� p J • � � to prevent sewer back-ups occurring in many hames in !� _ . . �_ - �� 3 - �� ....�..,._. .. _ --- - . � � - 1 . . ._. , � District -7�;and adjaeent districts, and to secure th� �, future of the area as a desirable residential neigh- ' borhood. The District 7 Planning Council urges the city to proceed as quickly as �ossible with the project.�� IACANT LAIVD 7. The DistriCt 7 Planning Council has made Jacant larld AND BUILDINGS and buildings a high priority and will continue to� � . request the city to follow up on all vacan� properties both publicly and privately owned. Vacant land � � located on single-family blocks should be used as side yards for existing houses or built on; v�cant i� houses should be either rehabilitated and occupied, or demolished. � � � _. � _ _ �- � - - � �l . - . . K AGE - - District 7's oldest housing is in the eastern portion of i the district, east of Dale Street. With the proper �J improvements, most of this houszng can continue to be � ' '= usefuT for many years to come. . - VALUE The _ �) hous�ng stock �n D1str�ct 7 generally sells for lower prices than in many areas of the city, which means it plays a key role in St. Paul . Whi1e -the priCe of a � new home is rising beyond the means of many working people, the modest, moderately-priced homes in neighbor- � � . hoods like Frogtown are still within their reach. . �� Marketing studies have indicated that District 7 needs � more one and two bedroom rentai units, such as those � now being built in the Rice-Marion area. , . � OWNER OCCUPANCY District 7's 1970 owner occapancy rate was slightly lower than the city average. Slightly less than half �) of the housing units in the district were owner- occupied. However, the District 7 Ptanning Council and .._ City have encouraged home ownership through various �� - � programs and indications are that the rate has ri5en � - �since 1970. CONDITION � District 7's housing stock is in generally sound conditiorr.� . However, there are several small , well-recognized areas in � the District which are deteriorated. Rehabilitation and redevelopment programs have improved housing conditions .in �� the district during the p�st eight years. • ° � RESIDENTIAL IMPROV�MENT - � `� District� 7's housing proposaTs are consistent with the STRATEGY city's Residential Improvement Strategy. �� A variety of housing rehabititation programs ar'e available to District 7 residents. , �� 4 � . � . .. . . __ . .. . � � FIGURE 2-1 RESIDENTTAL IMPROVEMENT STRATEGY MAP - � ' _ ,�.w„T � o' .w.,�,�, �., �---__,� � �� ] �OC� DO � � � �� ..,�.,�„J C�� j' " U � rwwvM wdar�w ww C4 � �� " (�"��0 OwR � � L—Jr�� DI � 1�2 �-i p ,� .. �� L�J�� p2 ...,� .

The northwest corner of the district, west of Wilder, and the Mt. Airy area are in this category. : � OBJECTIVE. Arr°est the process of deterioration, mai�n- � tain sound condition. ' STRATEGY: Intensive maintenance � . Windshield inspection to determine improvement needs. �� . Assistance as required to encourage adequate home maintenance. _.�: �_� Systematic upgradinq of streets, sidewalks, and other - - � � public facilities. IMPROVEMENT I IMPROVEMENT I �� This area is in basfcally �ood condition, but most blocks have several structures which need major repairs and �� several others which need rehabilitation rather than just maintenance. The southwESt corner of District 7 is an Improvement I area. _ �i 6 �I ; �� - OBJECTIVE: Complete required improvements to private properties and public facilities to provide sound housing and eliminate environmentai deficiencies. STRATEGY: Rehabilitation . Concentrated rehabilitation in smali project areas. . Encourage both owner-occupants and landlords to use available rehabilitation funds (either public or � private) to improve their properties. . Initiate measures to improve property maintenancp, particularly as follow-up to rehabilitation activities. � . Continue the completion of needed street and related � improvements in conjunction with concentrated residen- tial rehabilitation efforts. , The District 7 Planning Council wowld reCOrt�nend code enforcement in'this area only with residents' agreer�nt. IMPROVEM�NT II IMPROVEMENT II � These�areas have a greater need for rehabilitation than Improvement I` areas; and a substantiai number of the _ houses in these areas are in need of major repairs �nd • some are beyond repair. About half of District 7 is in thi�s category, including most of the middle portion of � . the district between Victoria and Western, part of the area around St. Adalbert's Church, and the Winter Street area. � OBJECTIVE: Complete required improvements to private • properties and Rublic facilities to provide sound housing and eliminate environmental � deficiencies. STRATEGY: Rehabilitation , � . -- . Undertake rehabilitation in small_ project �reas. . Initiate measures to improve property maintenance, � _ _- particularly as follow-up to rehabilitation ac.t�ivi�ies. � . Continue the completion of needed street and related � improvements in conjunction with concentrated resi- dential rehabilitation efforts. � , 7 � . � . • � ` � �i . Public acquisition of structures in poor condition - ! which are infeasible for rehabilitation. � Note: These areas are similar to those areas treated � � as ITA's in the past few years. � IMPROVEMENT III IMPROVEMENT III - ' J Deterioration has reached major proportions in these �] areas. In many blocks 40-50� of the structures are in _ very poor condition. These areas are located south of: ' . ` � Thamas Avenue, one bet�reen Mackubin and Western and the �� - oth�r between Farrington and Marion. . These blocks also contain some of the oldest homes in 1 . District 7. There are many examples of the modest but �� well constructed brick and wood frame houses built by ; the 3rr�nigrants who ori�ginally settled in Frogtown. �� Because of this, and because many structures could be ret�ab.ilitated, total clearance should not take place. The land use in th�ese areas should continue to be single- - family, with the improvements described below. . �. . OBJECTIVE: Ensure reasonably adequate living conditions for present residents; acc�mplish improvement � through rehabilitation where feasible and . � appropr.iate and program acquisition of some - structures as required. � ' �,: STRATEGY: Ma�or neighbbrhood �imprbvement, . Provide reh�bilitation assistance as required to � correct hazardous cond�t�onse . Program needed acquisition and redevelopment as it � becomes feasiblee � � .

Dale Street should be widened between Sherburne and Minnehaha. See comments in Section 2.2.3. � RiCE STREET 3. The I-94/Mar,ion Street interchange Should be improved so that Rice Street may be downgraded to a collector . � street south of Pennsylvania. PARK STREET 4. Also as a result of the I-94/hfarion interchange improvement, Park Street should be downgraded to a � local street. THOMAS AVENUE � 5. Thomas Avenue will continue to serve as a collector � street and should be designated as such. . PIER�E BUTLER 6. The intersection of Pierce Butler and Minnehaha needs � & MINNEHAHA INTEkSECTION some additional controi such as � four-way stop. STREET LIGHTS 7. The old green lighting standards should be preserved . if the residents of those blocks where they are �-- - 1o�ated want them. - TRUCK ROUTES 8. Truck route designation should be removed from Como � �- between Marior� and Park, Rice Street south of Pennsyl- vania, and Park from Pennsylvania to University, when the I-94/Marion intersection is improved. � BUSES 9. Buses should run more frequently on Dale Street. , � 10. . � � ;; ' �ZS k �• r �` f� s >'° '� i ;�, '� �,�frTt � . : � � t� �:. ,�. ��_•� �T�� g °�. �� 'r"4 Y b ��'` � . �'�"'..�.�.

The Street and Nighway Plan proposes few Changes in District 7. No construction of new routes is proposed. The streets in District 7 are adeq�ate for the volume of � traffic they carry. Most local streets need paving. ___ , The intersection of Pierce Butler and Minnehaha needs some � additional control to make it safer and prevent cdngestion. Truck routes are in appropriate locations in District 7, � � except that it is unnecessary to have 3 para11e1 truck routes one block apart, on Marion, Rice and Como. The MTC should consider more fre uent bus service on � G Dale Street. Parking is adequate in most of District 7, except in � the Capitol area� and in some locations on University Avenue and other corr�nerci al streets. � The� chart on the foliowing pages sumnarizes information. from the draft Street and Highway Plan regarding existing and proposed street class'ifications, aid sources, and � traffic� volumes. : � The chart is fol]owed by a map, Figure 2-3, illustrating proposed classifications for streets in District 7. > . .:. . . �� DALE STREET Dale Street has been widened south of `Sherburne Avenue� and � WIDENING is being widened for a short stre�ch north of Minriehaha. The portion between Sherburne and Minnehaha would involve � , acquisition of an additional 60 feet of right-of-way _ along the east side of Dale Street in order to provide an additional lane in each direction. Because of the . � major expense and the impact. this couid have on the :' neighborhood, there has been a lot of discussion about whether it should be implemented. 7he following are the � positions of the various. parties involved:`; - �$ District 7.Plannin9 .Co.uncil is in favor of� the widening � � beca�se o concerns-about the District 7 portion of Dale " �� Street becoming a bottleneck and about property owners on . the east side of Dale being in limbo or having been _ promised they would be acquired. . , j� �- - District Plannin Staff has recomnended against. the widen- ing between . er urne and Minnehaha�, because traffic �� volumes do not appear to warrant adding extra lanes and because the structures on the east side of Dale Street are in use as either businesses or residences and most are � in good condition. f . 12 .

When street paving is done in District 1, consideration should be given to vacating sorr� streets � and/or using them for parkinq, open space or other neighborhood amenities. This applies to the area between. Western and Rice where most blocks are half � the size of a standard city block. 2. The District 7 Planning Council will consider rezonings on an individual basis. On the south side of Sherburne, � the District Council will support only rezoning to P-1 • for parking. ,-�_ � 3. The Zoning Ordinance should include�qetter reguiation � • of parking lots, including screening from view of adjacent properties, clean-up, and security. These � regulations should be adopted and enforced. 4. The University Avenue Development Council and the District 7 Planning Council should work together ta � resolve conflicts between th� residential uses on Sherburne and comnercial uses on University Avenue. � 5. The residential blocks on the south side of Como , between Western and Elfelt should be redeveloped for either multi-family or commercial use. �� 6. The-District 7 Planning Council will continue to work with the CAAPB in planning for the Capitol area. �� 7. Soil borings should precede any new construc'tfon in District 7, since poor soil conditions h�ve been fou►td in several locations.

R � Land use relationships are generally good in District 7.

Comnercial areas ih the district are on University � � Avenue, Rice Street, Dale Street, and at Minnehaha and Chatsworth. The Uni-Dale Shopping Center, south of University at' Dale, is to be completed in 1978. � j Industrial uses are located near the railroad tracks along the north edge of the district. � � . Some neighborhood�oriented businesses surrounded by residential properties became non-conforming uses when the 1975 Zoning Ordinance was passed. A few of these � � have now been rezoned, with the support of the District 7 Planning Council , so that they. are �b1e to expa�nd or provide parking. �� 7he District 7 Planning �Council will consider rezonings on the�south side of Sherburne on an individual basis and will support rezonings only to P-1 for parking. �� The land use plan for the Capitol area calls for exten- sive redevelopment; however, the plan is being revised � ■ by the CAAPB. i The city has completed most of the replanting of boulevard trees in District 7.

Speci#ically, this means: . Providing city recreation staff for some programming at the Community Center, or funds to Wilder to provide staff. . Construction of a softbail diamond an the Wil der property. . Construction of a gymnasium at one of the two loca- ; tions. . Provision for pedestrians crossing a� Minnehaha and ,t Grotto by installing either a pedestrian bridge or a C pedestrian crossing signal . 2. The city should make sure that parks and playgrounds , are adequately supervised and maintained. This includes � vacant publicly owned land such a5 the Orew School site. 3. The School Board Should build playground equipment at �� Jackson School. . , 4. The open space an the ice arena site should be canverted ,� to a passive park. �; 24 � 5. The city and the District 7 Planning Council y'r�ould keep residents informed of recreational programs available both in the district and in other locations. 3. .3 K ND I The southwestern por.tion of District 7 is not served by any recreational facility or open space of any kind. A combination of West Minnehaha Playground and the Wilder , Thomas-Dale Cor�nunity Center with adjacent vacant land is the best way to serve this need. Parks and playgrounds should be adequately supervised and maintained. The Parks and Recreation Plan recommendations are consis- tent with District 7's goals and proposais. The Jackson .School playground and open space on the ice arena site are opportunities for providing better recrea- tional facilities at a relatively low cost. 3.5 UB C SA ETY GOA S 1 .

The fact that District 7 workers are emp]oyed mostly in blue collar categories is partially due to the fact that only about 38� of those over 25 years of age have finished � high school . Most of the workers living in District 7 have jobs with�n � the St. Paul city limits, which means they generally have short distances to travel to work. � � � . IND STRIAL DEVELOPMENT . . GOALS 1.

BACKGR U D INFORMATION � There are many industrial. uses in and near District 7, ' i which is one reason why most workers living in District 7 ' work within the St. Paul City limits. I Industrial activity in District 7 is concentrated along i the northern edge, in the following locations: � 1. North of Pierce/Butler betwe�n Chatsworth and Dale: mix ' � of industrial uses, many manufacturers. 2�. Burlington-Northern/Dale Street Shops: north of , � Minnehaha between Dale and Arundel . � - . 3. North ofi Minnehaha between ArunGel and Western: small � I industrial area on land made available through redevlop- , ment. i 4. Area bounded by Como, Pennsylvania, I-35E, and Burlingtor� , � �� Northern tracks: sprawling industrial area including some commercial and residential uses. , In addition to these, there are some light industrial uses on University Avenue and in scattered locations in the residential portions of the District. 8ethesda Lutheran ' Hospital , located in the north Capitol area, is a major � service industry. The above-listed industrial areas are the employment � � �enters located in District 7. Howeve�, some other major centers are located just outside District 7. � 1. The State of Minnesota Capito3 Building, State Office � Building, Department of Transportation (formerly High- way Building) Veterans Administration Building, and ' i Centennial Building are located just south of the east � .end of District 7. � � i � I 28. � � � ; i � 2. Downtown St., Paul is also a center of industrial development, as is the Riverview Industrial Park just south of downtown. � 3. The Midway district, west of District 7, is a major industrial area. .3 COMM RCIAL AND .3. GOA S � RETAIL DEVELOPMENT 1. Ta provide for attraetive, healthy shopping areas to serve District 7 and surrounding communities with goods and services and employment opportunities. 2. To assist bu5inesses to stay in the area to maintain the tax base and to serve residential areas. . !, .3. PR POS S 1 . Assist exist�ing businesses to stay in District 7 and � attract new businesses to add to the tax and employ�nerit I base. This should be a cooperative effort among the business orgar�iza�ions, District 7 Planning Council , � and City Department of Pl�nning and Economic Deveiopment. �' 2. The commercial rehabi�litation loan program should be continued and should expand to include RiCe Street. �, 3. The city should continue to provide adequate police protection to the corrunercial areas to prevent vandalism � and theft and to create an atmosphere in which custoii�- f' ers feel safe. 4. Parking shortages which are occurring on University �� Avenue should be solved b}r the businesses ne�ding parking, using shared parking lots where possible. Technical assistance should be avai7able fram the �' Department of Planning and Econamfc Development. 5. Adult entertainment establishments should be reyuired 1 to meet strict e�terior design standards and shouid � provide adequate security, clean-up and screening of their parking lots. They should be located away fr�o�� residential areas. f'! 6. Parking for Rice Street businesses should be part of t►�e Capitol area plan. ;' 7. Wherever feasible, existing vacant commercial buildings ,� should be adapted for reuse by new businesses or those � that wish to expand. '� t� 29 � s ' , � ' � 4.3. ACKGR D INF RM IO � ) The following points from Philip Hammer's 1975 "Economic Policy Overview of St. Paul" apply especially to the economics of the city's residential and commercial areas. � � The report is based on the obvious fact that St. Paul is a fully developed "built city." In most cases, "... . 'economic development' ...is primarily a matter of � preserving, protecting, recycling, regenerating and � ' .increasing the productivity of the city's physical plant.° ; 1. Good quality business and good quality neighborhoods i go hand in hand. The needs of both neighborhoods and � business must be met. If businesses leave the district, residents lose services that make their , � neighborhood an attractive and convenient place to live. If residents move out to the suburbs, purchasing power drops in the trade area of the businesses. � 2. Economic rowth is critical for em lo ment and for non- ' g P Y residential tax base to help support public schools I and city services. Roughly half the city`s prbperty � tax base is nonresidential . : 3. Most growth will be in the form bf expansions by � } existing firms. For cornmercial firms, their potential , i for growth lies mainly in capturing the trade of custom- ers who travel farther away for merchandise that nearby � shops don't carry. � � 4. Many older buildings have excellent potential for "adaptive re-use," that is, remodeling for a new type , � of business activity. � 5. Older commercial buildings frequently play the role of ' ' "incubator" for small , new business ventures. If the venture is successful , it moves on to larger, newer buildings with higher rents. This incubator role is � I a significant one for the city's economy. + 6. Commercial areas should seek new businesses based on a � careful �analysis of the existing "mix" of businesses. f Stores that attract "comparison shoppers" often do well I when competitors enter the area. Stores that attract "convenience shoppers" do well when they have their � ) own market area. Some types of businesses provide similar or related goods and services. These businesses strengthen one another without any direct competition. , This situation is obvious on University Avenue with its , auto-related businesses. � � 30 � �, � . , � � i � 7. Businesses in the built city need to be environmentally '' compatible with good quality neighborhoods. Polluting industries do not have much future within the city. # �� 8. Rehabilitation and redevelopment require closer private- public cooperation than first-time, new development � usually requires. Public sector participation should �' be keyed to "mul�iplier" or "leverage" effects--the amount af private investment that wil.l be triggered by . i a given amount of public investment. . �, The above recommendations should be used in Di$trict 7. � � University Avenue has shown marked improvement due to , the University Avenue Development Counci7 's activities during the last two years. � University Avenue still has parking and adult entertain- , rr�nt issues to deal with. � Dale Street should continue to serve as a neighborhood , � shopp7ng area. 1 The Uni-Dale Mall at University and Dale will be a great i' .asset to District 7. '� ' - The �Rice Street commercial strip is a thriving area and � should be preserved and improved to serve the surrounding � neighborhood and the employees and visitors to the State Capitol area. � `, The visual impact of the huge parking lot at the Minnehaha shopping area should be minimized through � landscaping or other design solutions.
