In order to continue to provide services within the City sight-of-way without raising property taxes, the Mayor has recommended a Right-OS-Way maintenance assessment which will help finance part of the cost of maintenance within the City right-of-way. This Right- Of-Way assessment will include the old summer street maintenance assessment in addition to an assessment for winter street maintenance, boulevard iree maintenance and trimming, and sidewalk maintenance. RfGHT Right-OE-Way Maintenance includes sweeping, flushing, patching, and chip sealing streets and aileys, patching, OFWAY blading, and placing crushed rock on unimproved rights-of-way, street overlays, litter pick up, ordinance MAINTENANCE enforcement, and emergency service, snow p{owing inciuding sanding and salting, snow removaV, snow emergency including tagging and towing, sidewalk maintenance and repair, and boulevard tree maintenance and trimming. In previous years the City's winter street maintenance and tree maintenance programs were paid by the City's General Fund (property tax money). This proposed Right-Of-Way Maintenance Assessment will ensure each property which benefits from public right-of-way maintenance pays its fair share of the cost of the maintenance. Property owners wili continue to be responsible for sidewalk shoveling and boulevard grass mowing. Remember... The City does not snow plow alleys. The cost of right-of-way maintenance in Saint Paul is about $21.3 miilion for 2003. Of this amount, the Mayor proposes to coliect approximately $14.3 million in assessments. The remainder comes trom Municipal State Aid, Trunk Highway Aid, County Aid, miscellaneous receipts, and General Fund contributions. QUESTIONS? If you have questions about your right•of-way maintenance or frontage, cali (651) 266-8857. City staff wiil be avaiiable to answer last-minute questions in Councii Chambers firom 5;00 pm to 5:30 pm on Wednesday, November 6, the same day as the hearing. NEED REPAIR? if your street or alley needs maintenance or repair, piease caii (651) 292-6600.
