INTRODUCTION
• This planning document is the culmination of the combined efforts of
citizens and staff to develop a comprehensive plan for a better inner-
city neighborhood environment. In another sense, 'this comprehen�ive
community development plan is only a threshold, for as the writer Walt
Whitman said, "It is provided in the essence of thin�s, that from any
fruition of success, no m�tter what, shall come forth something to make
a greater stru�gle necessary." That stru�gle will be implementing the
projects that will bring visible and meaningful change to the Model
Nei�hborhood and at the san�e time developing a continuous action over
and beyond the five year span of the Model Cities Program.
We have great hopes for this plan as it deals with not just the obvious
physical problems, but with the economic and social problems as well.
The citizens of this part af the city have spent uncounted hours in
this planning procesa. Their participation as citizens has provided the
� entire basis for this program. The staff with technical a�sistance from
consultants has built upon this base to develop this plan. The Federal,
State and Local A�encies have also cooperated to provide valuable infor-
mation and assistance as a continuing process3 whereas the St. Paul
Mayor and City Councilmen have monitored the plr�nning activities and
made contributions to program objectives.
While some may be frustrated with a program that envisions a full year'e.>
planning periad, those who have gone through the planning period reco�-
nize how time consumin� a thorou�h planning effort can be.
The result of this effort is this Comprehensive Development Plan for
the first year of our St. Paul Model Cities Program. The plan embraces
a well balanced group of projects dcaling with mariy facets of the Model
Neighborhood's human and environmental needs.
• �
xiv
The thrust of the plan is directed toward improvement of the economic
� and social faundations of the area. When combined with physical pro-
jects, this will bring about a revitalization and renewal of the
quality of life in the Model Neighborhood Qn a comprehen�ive basis.
However of greatest significance, is the ultimate �oal of the Model
Nei�hborhood citizens to develop the leadership capabilities to be in
char�e of their own destinies. Therefore the final objective is to
create relationships between the local government and the Model Neigh-
borhood citizens that will allow them to change, respect and utilize
the institutions that make up their local, political, social, and
economic systems.

• For� eword: Y
The narrative qlaterial in this section re�ults from reana�ysis and further

Planning Statement and the present time.
This material was developed partic,ularly to respond to the requirements
set down in Section I of the Regional InteragenCy Coordinating Committee
Hid-Plan BevieW of the St. Paul Model Cities Program. In this up-dating
of the Mid-Planning Statement we have, in a comprehensive manner, dealt
with priority problems and causes, goals, objectives and strategy.
This narrative also addresses itself to the advisory section (II) of the
Regional Interagency Coordinating Committee Review. Those Technical
Assistance comments were very ueeful in our planning while moving toward
thi$ submission. The Technical Assistance commente have guided our
efforts and as the work progressed, responses have been woven into this
narrative.
We would like to emphasize that representatives of public and private
• agencies and institutions have been working closely with .us in the
further planning and in the development of the up-dated �tatement and
the projects that are a part of this submi�sion. • •
We further feel that with this extensive up-dating, we now .have a Mid-

PRIORITY PROBLEMS AND CAUSES
• Introduction:
The Mid-Planning Statement as now revised focuse� on a group of six
priority pxoblems and five priority causes. As explained in the
following narrative, we have chosen to rank the causes, but not the
problems. The planning process up to the point at xhich the Mid--
Planning Statement wa+s produced did not focu� on �stabli+�hing and
rauking priority problems and causes. Tt should be emphasixed that
this was not an oversight, but eame about by design during tYae wark.
of the plannin� cqres and task forces.
A priority group of problems was developed during the proce�s. They
were noti ranked because the problems within the priority groups rrere
revealed to be interwoven with each other in a complex pattern.
While analyzing the problems, we were struck by the recurrence of the
same basic causes in theeepara6e problem sreas.
• ' ,
We decided to rank the basic causes in an order of priority, but ta
continue to deal with the problems as an unranked group.
Problems: �
Each of the eight priority problems was important and 2had to be dealt
with in some way during the First Action Year. To rank problems
within the group was deemed by citizens and staff to be merely an
exercise that would give little gositive direction toward our broad
goal of solving these ma�or problems. In fact, the ranking exercise
could have had a negative result by bringing out disagreements among
the people central to the planning process ae there were favorite�, but
differing top priority problems.
Hid-Planning Statement, Priority Problems and Causes
•
2
i
The priority problems in random order are: �
Incomer and Economic Independence
• Education
Health
Crime and Justice
Housing '
Public Facilities and Services
Transportation
Eecreation
We have reanalyzed each of these problems attd through a new description
have attempted to bring into focus the diasenBione of each problem in
a detailed and comprehensive manner. The problem descriptiona 2�ave been
illuminated by cbrroborative statietics and data from a variety of
sources. This reana].ysis and de8criptiott has then led ua to clarit'ying
and restatiag the Goal Yor each priority pro�lem area.
The Ob3sctivee (formerly coneidered ae a type of goal) have also been
• restated and redefined to give us specific guide poste for the firat and
succeeding years.
The items discussed above are in each of the separate problem de�arip-
tions which follow thie nsrr+�tive.
Cauaes:
Through the various dimension8 of each of the problema in the priority
groups an underlying aet of causes was observed to recur. A study of
the problem descriptions will reveal that these causes in a direct or
indirect manner do run throughout all problem areas.
These major causes were ranked as the plan�ning procese evolved. The
priority causes were decided to be:
Mid-Planning Statement, Priority Problems and Causes
•
3
1. Inadequate education
2. Insufficient income (unemployment and underemployment)
• 3. Discrimination (raci.al, economic, sexual arxd geographic)
4. Governmental and institutional neglect (inadequate delivery
of public and private services)
5. Ineffective Model Neighborhood resident involveroent in public
policy and decision aaaking
Causes 1 and 2 are priroary; causes 3 and 4, secondary; and cause 5,
tertiary.
The ranked przority causes were put to a practiaal use as a criteria for
the rating of First Action Year Proposals. In an attempt to objectively
evaluate each proposal that was received, a Priority Rating Sheet (E�chibit
A) was developed. The rating process was itttended to indicate the de�ee
to which these priority or major causes would be impacted by a proposal.
Using the Priority Rating Sheet, the individual proposals were rated and
through the numerical rating that was developed the ranking of proposals
resulted. While recognized as not being completely valid, this Priority
• Rating Sheet proved to be a valu�ble �ool in thi� decision making proce�s.
Problem: Inaome and Economic Independence
Description:
This problem area encompasses a broad range of related concerne. The
relationshipe m�y not have been recognized in the past, but thraugh our
problem analysis work we came to reaognize that such seemingly diverse
areas as welfare, business, and employment were all dimensions of tha
same problem. Unemployment or undereatployment and welfare are insepa-
rable as the need for welfare stems from a lack of income and a lack of
income indicates an �eatplayment problem.
Sixteen percent of the approximately 12,000 family unit+� in the Model

Neighborhood earn less than $3,000 annually. The incidence of dependencc
on welfare in all categories (23� of all Model Neiqhborhood households)
• is, accordingly, higher than the city-wide incidence and than the inoi-
dence in any other part of the �ity. The Model Neighborhood accounts for
35% of the persons in Ramsey County that are dependent on Aid to Families
with Dependent Children (AF'DC). Similarly, the Model Neighborhood account�
for 24% of the Ramsey County Welfare Department•s Aid to the Totally Aiti-
abled (ATD) caseload; 25% of its Old Age and Survivora In�sur�nce (OAS)
caseload; 27A6 of its Aid to the Blind (AT$) ca+�eload; 25� o� its Medical
Assistance caseload.
Among the problems relating to dependence on welfare cit�d by the Model
Neighborhood residents are these:
a. Lack of education and the absenae of training prog�am� ge�red to
creating independence among recip3.en�s cause genera�ion after
generation to remain on welfare;
b. Welfare paymentr are too low to keep families intact;
c. Social workers are raot trained to be sensitive to the needs of
their clients;
• d. Poor people do not have a role in planning programs to solve
their problems;
e. Cost of child care makes working unprofitable;
f. Distant location of the welfare agency, recipient's reluctance
to leave their community to face discrimination and indignities
and the absence of a means of registering their grievanceg com-
bine to make the recipients feel alienated froar the agency;
g. Inadequate public transportation makea getting to the job
difficult;
h. Services to senior citizens are inadequate and ivaccessible;
i. Senior citizens are discouraged from keeping their own homes
and are being located in high-riee public housing inacoessible
to transportation which isolate s them from the community and
from services and amenities such as health centers, drug stores,

theaters, and other sources of entertainment;
�. Welfare laws discourage childr�n on welfare from bringing their
• aged parents into their homes to live and be cared for.
A lack of economic independence reflect�, for most people. an employment
problem.
The employment problems of the residents of the Model Neighborhood can be
clasBified into two categories, those of' unemployment and those of' under-
employment. The unemployment rate habit ally runs double that for the
city as a whole. In 1965 the uneaiployme�it rate for St. Paul was ;3�. Tn
1968 the rate was 3.3�. For the same periods of time the Mode,l Neighbor-
hood had b.6� and 7.5�6 unemployment rate�.
Underemployment is demonstrated by the consisteat record of area resident8
rorking in unskilled and low paying �obs In 1960, ].096 of the Model Neigh-
borhood residents were employed in rofe�sional and
P manager�sl. occupations.
For St. Paul as a whole the rate was 20� IIn+skilled occupations accounted
for 4(�6 of the Model N�ighborhood work ft�rc�. St. Paul figures were 2�G.
• In 1960 the atedfan fam3ly income for Mod l Neighborhood residente xas
g5,3�. For St. Pau]. as a whole the stat�istic v+as $6,543. During the
same period of ti�e �6�6 of al1 Model Neighborhood residents ea.rrt��l under
�5,�00. The figure was 28� for St. Paul. By 1965 the median fa�ily
income in the Madel Neighborhood had dete iorated to �4,168, whi1�� 51+�
of the area families now earn less than $5,000 per year.
For thoee Model Neighborhood residents over 25 years of age, the average
number of years of formal education is 9. . St. Paul's average is 11.4.
The high +school drop-out rate for 16 and 7 year olds is 16� as compered
to 696 for the city as a whole. Attendance in the area vocational schools
and the loca7. colleges and universities i almost non-existant. Few
receive what they believe to be adequate �ocational counaelin . A ne a-
B K
tive self-image of their potential prevails.

Host profess a lack of confidence in existing governmental programs rind
agencies as they do not see people like themselves involved in plannin�
• these programs. Many exhibit an unwillingness to seek les� secure and
familiar employment outside the traditional neighborhood boundaries.
Study after study has reported a crippling lack of favorable career
models within the adult community. Those who could offer this hope
often migrate to less unsettling and more proaperous areas of the city.
Low income results in financial pressures which inhibit long range
planning. Credit is often unavailable. Few own thei.r businesses; other�
fail because of inexperience and lack of training in handling money,
roerchandizing, and customers. Information about comparative methods
of buying and family budgeting is non-existant. Experience at �pplying
economic and political power is scarce and when attemped mostly uneuc-
cessful. The employer force is characterized by an often undue emphasis
upon irrelevant traditional hiring requirements. Civil Service practic�s
are cumberso�,slow� and distant. Hiddle management remains encumbered
by traditional stereotypes of economically deprived citizens. Historic
defini.tions of jobs suitable for minority workers persist. Interest by
small and medium sized employers in setting up job training and retrain-
• ing ie alarmingly low. Area businesses are small and the number is
steadily declining. From the fall of 196? to July of 1969, the number
of vacant business places has more than doubled, increasing froro 20 to
4�. Of the 155 remaining businesses, 85 (55'�6) had been recommended by
the St. Paul Housing and Redeve].opment Authority to be acquired for
Urban Renewal. Almost 84% employ four or fewer employees while lass
than 4% eatploy ten or more. Over 63� reported in 1965 (a year of gen-
eral .business expansion) that they anticipated their business activity
would either remain stagnant or decrease. Indications are that even
that depressing note was optimistic.
Most ma�or service facilities are located outside of the Model Neighbo�-
hood. Information upon their effectiveness and services is most often
incomplete, erroneous, or seemingly unavailable.

•
�r
Lendin� institutions, government and private, are felt to have ignored
borrowers after the loan has been made. Budgeting and comparative
• shopping assistance has been negligible.
Existing programs and agencies, designed to aid the unemployed and under-
employed historically have lacked adequate suppartive services in terms
of stipends, day-care facilities, counseling, follow-up� and outreach.
Job training is frequently available only during hours when the underem-
ployed are working. Incorne reductions and time limitations on the number
of hours one m�y work while in training have imposed severe hardship upon
many. Job training programs are often characterized by a lack of variety�
bureaucratic delay, and nonsympathetic responses to the needs of the�r
enrollees.

• Proble�: Educatlion
Description:
Fundamental to the problem of education �.n the Model Neighborhood is the
underachievement of school students. Wh�,le the city-wide drop-out rate
for 16 and l� year olds is 6;�� the Model�� Neighborhood has a drop-out
rate of 16�;. Correspondingly, the media� achievement level is 11.4
grades for the city of St. Paul and 9.$ �'or the Model Neighborhood.
Over 40�6 of the population 25 years and �ver in the Model Neighborhood
have not had any high school, and only a�proximately 59b are college
graduates. These figures are in sharp ccbntrast with those for the
city of St. Paul �

. �',
xho have not had adequate training, e�chibite itself ae unea�ployment and
• underemployment.
The high drop-out rate and lov achievement level are attributed to the
lack of a relevant curriculum geared to the needs of minority and low in-
come children. Institutions of higher learning are not preparing
teachers to work effectively with childrett having socio-economic back-
ground� of the Model Neighborhood children.
Teachers assigned to Model Neighborhood schoola are often young, inex-
perienced, and inadequately trained in subject matter and teaching
procedures. This situation brings about little deviation from the
traditional approach to teaching. Because of the social temperament
of the community, many of the school systems well-qualified teachers
refuse assignment to schools in the Model Neighborhood. Among the
teachers in the Model Neighborhood schools there is a high turn-over
rate.
• Many teaahers are insensitive to the individual needs of their students
and express a discriminatory attitude toward them through stereotyped
ideas of their intellectual capabilities. Students, as a result, tend
not to be motivated, but tend to develop attitudes of reaction toward
the entire educational proce�a. Furthermore, money al.locations are not
sufficient to provide personal and ongoing in-service training and up-
to-date facilities, materials and equipment. Buildings are aged,
obsolete, and provide inadequate and inflexible indoor and outdoor space,
especially for pre-school and early elementary pupils.
Because of economic and other related domeetic conditions of many
families in the Model Neighborhood many youths through the encaurage-
ment or apathy of parents drop-out of school to help sustain the family
or become independent. Students and parents often see little va].ue and
Mid-Planning Statement, Education
•
11
have little appreciation for an education.
• Parents and community peraons are not involved in the �decision making pro-
cess, therefore little or no opportunity ie afforded them to make their
desires known or push for improvements in the education process of tt►eir
children. Some parents and community persons do not understand the odu-
cational process and are apathetic toward it. ,
As a result of their experiencee, roany parents have developed negative
attitudes towards education and therefore transmit this attitude to their
children. Max�y children are from broken homes and,/or have working parents.
Therefore, there is little time spent in working with the teachexs and
assisting the. child in his educational development. In recent years the
Model Neighborhood has received an influx of southern Blacks and Appala-
chian whites bringing to the schools different cultural and educational
backgrounds with which the school system here is not prepared to deal
effectively. Consequently, these new arrivals become lost in the syetem
or drop-out.
• Many Model Neighborhood youngsters are functioning 5-6 grades below the
national norm and have developed negative attitudes towarda themselv�s
and their� ability to learn; they therefore, are afforded little or no
opportunity for continuing education.
Goal:
To upgrade the educational process in the Mode,� NeighborYiood,;in arder to
provide a qual.ity education for all Model Neighborhood children and
afford each child the opportunity to reach his optimum level of �ducation.

Problem: Health
Description:
One of the basic problems that exists in the Model Neighborhood community
is the lack of an adequate delivery of health services within the Model
Neighborhood community.
Health statistias for the city of St. Paul show that the Model Neighbor-
Mid-Planning Statement, Health
•
14
hood lnad abnormally high incidences in the following health areas:
• In the area of communicable diseasee, the Model Nei�hborhood accounted
for 326 cases out of 926 casea for the total city ,(35.6� of the total).
Records f aew active cases of tuberculosi b w 6
s et ee lg 5 and 1969 ehow
that the odel Neighborhood incidence rate was 48 er 100,000 population,
compared o the city incidence rate of 20 per 100, population for the
same peri d of time.
During 19 8 there were a total of 496 births in th Model Neighborhood,
of which 85 births were illegitimate. During the same period of time
there wer 5,�43 births city-wide of which �55 wer� illegitimate. Thi�
indicate� that 2q�b of the births in the Model Neighborhood were illegit-
imate as ompared to 13% city-wide. Educational information and services
relating o birth control are not widely available, nor is the need well
accepted.
The infan mortality rate in the Model Neighborhood coaimunity is 31 per
• 1,000 bir hs compared to 20 per 1,000 births city-wide. This rep�resents
a signifi ant variation from the city-wide ratio. Prenatal. education
and servi es are needed on an expanded basis.
Complaint about environmental heal.th filed with the Bureau of Health
durittg 19 9 showed that in the areas of housing, rodents, garbage,
and rubbi h the Model Neighborhoad community ha.d the highest rate of
complaint in the city.
The immun"zatian rate of Model Neighborhood children and adults aas
10;b comp ed to 4(�b of the children and adults city-wide.
As shown n the foregoing, there are many factors which relate directly
or indire tly to the high incidence of health problems within the Model
Mid-Plann' g Statement, Health
•
i,
Neighborhood community. Health problems are accentuated by a lack of
educational information about good health practices for the individual
•, and the family.
The present public health system is greatly over-worked, skilled man-
poxer is scarce, and specia].ized manpower and facilities 'are often
poorly utilized or, in fact, do not exist. There is a lack of access-
ibility; staffs in many caees lack sensitivity to the needs of poor and
minority people, therefore, the qua7.ity of aervice is not satisfactory.
The Nodel Neighborhood lack� an economic base with which to b�y quality
service. Most impartantly, the comaiur►ity's lack of political sophisti-
cation prevents the Model Neighborhood re�idents from organized and
effective efforts to get improvement.
The Nodel Neighborhood residents feel that to be considered as quality
care there must be acceptability of the service to the consumer. Good
medical care ntust be continuoua and capable of addressing the total
• man and his iamily. Most residents of the Model Neighborhood cannot
afford private health care.
In �ummary, the depressed level of health of the poor is the result of
mar�y factors: profes+�ional. �ttitude, maldietribution of resourcea,
fragmentation af �ervices created by categorical grants, lack of skill
and education to seek out resources, and underlying it all, a lack of
money.
Goal:
To reduce the incidence of health problems ia the Model Neighborhood
to the city-wide incidence rate8.

Problem: Crime and Justice
• Deacription:
Crime statiatic� for the city of St. Paul show that the Model Neighborhood
accounts for a disproportionately high rate of recorded crimes against
property and persons.
In January of 1970, 266 major crimes were reported in the Model Nexgh-
borhood. During the same time there were reported 1,242 similar crimes
in the rest of the city. An area comprising 2.8+A� of the city's land and
hous�ng 8.396 of the city's population accounted for 17.6% of the city's
reported major crimes. During the same period of time, the area ac-
counted for 51.99� of the city's reported robberies and 44.9A6 of its
assaults. The area's juvenile population makes up 5% of the city total
a.nd accounts for over 1�K of 3uvenile arrests.
A survey of 209d of the residents of the Model Cities area in 1965 dis-
• closed that 58.6� felt that the streets were not safe at night. In
questioning residents during the last three years. the Summit-University
Federation block workers found that excluding housing, crime was men-
tioned most often as a major concern of the neighborhood.
Many crimea in the comaiunity go unreported because of the fear of repri-
sal. Attitudes condoning criminal activities are openly evident.
Certain law violations (e.g. prostitution, drug and alcohol abuse, land-
lord and business code violations) are openly ignored by residents as
well as law enforcement officials. Tense police-community relations
develop from insensitive and unthinking police actions when dealing
with people that are black anc�/or poor, and the resultant over-reaction
by the coa�munity. Though the minority group population of the Model
Neighborhood totals nearly 30�, they are not well represented in the
ranks of laW enforcement officials. Over 9� of the policemen of St.
Mid-Planning Statement, Crime and Justice

Paul are Caucasian. The entire city force of 450 has only three minority
police officers.
�
Residents feel that the police and the rules under which they operate
are a threat from the outside as no one in the Model Neighborhood ha�
had an involvement in the process.
St. Paul has no police precinct �system. As a result� the sense of com-
ounity identity with the police department, which often occurs under a
precinct system, is missing.
Justice often becomes injustice for people who are poor. Adequate
legal counsel is either non-existant or too costly. Citizens are often
unaware of the law and their rights under it.
Juvenile delinquency proliferates, often there is a lack of parental
guidance sometimes caused by apathy� often the result of both parents
working long hours at low paying jobs.
• The coromunity does not present young people with good career models, as
many of the more successful people who are making it legally get out of
the community. Young people find it difficult to identify with their
families or with the community's institutions. Institutions often do
not recognize the needs and desires of toda.y's youth.
Those who return to the community from correctional institutions find
it difficult, sometimes impossible, to become productive members of
society. Discrimination itt its various forms, coupled with inadequate
education and vocational training often creates employment problems
and other forms of rejection which force them to return to the accep-
tance of old friends and crime.

Problem: Housing
Description:
Housing structures have deteriorated to the point where 23.1� of the
units in the Model Neighborhood cannot be reha�ilitated for a reason-
able amount of money, while in the entire city of St. Paul only 10.6�
are in such condition.
• Many residents who are of minority groups continue to live zn overcrowded,
substandard housing becaue>e they wish to avoid the discrimination which
they fear would be encountered if they moved outside the Mode1 Neighbor-
hood.
The overcrowding (8.3� of the city's population lives on 2.8w of the
city's land) in this community is often attributable to the many struc-
tures that have been subdivided into more household units than they were
designed to contain. This results in having units, which while otherwise
sound, have inadequate space and inadequate facilities. Inadequate
plumbing facilities exi�t in 2,037 housing units in the Model Neighbor-
hood. This number represents 33.4� of the housing units in the entire
city that are aubstandard in this way.
The condition and age of the present housing points out the deteriorative
condition in the Model Neighborhood. Recent inspections by the St. Paul
• Mid-Planning Statement, Hou�ing
�1
Housing and Redevelopment Authority ehow that approximately 90�6 of the
structures in the Model Neighborhood have some form of code deficiency.
• Many of these structuree are rental housing (66� of residents rent)
where both the owners and tenants lack interest in improving the struc-
ture. With 90� of the area structures more than 50 years old, mt�ny
code deficiencies are simply due to age and obsolescence.
Code deficiencies are permitted to go uncorrected for a variety of
reasons. Residents who have not had a role in setting the regulations
relating to housing feel that the regulations are unfair.
The high rate of unemployment and underemployment, brought about by
discrimination, inadequate education and a lack of vocational training,
results in low levels of family income in the Model Neighborhood. These
low and moderate income families find it difficult to afford improved
housing, be it simply through maintaining their present housing or
buying or renting better housing,
• The opportunities for home ownership are limited by an inadequate �upply
of homes which the low and maderate income family can obtain. Older
homes require extensive rehabilitation, the cost of which is often pro-
hibitive. Land for new construction has not been available because of
existing high density use (area encompasses 2.8A6 of the city's 1�►nd, but
8.3% of its population) and the uncertainty created by in-process Urban
Renewal. The unavailability and high cost of financing makes the highly
sought goal of home awnership a very distant goal for most low and
moderate income families.
The stock of rental units for low and moderate income families and the
aged continues to be inadequate. Unrealistically high rents and poor
maintenance on the part of absentee owners brings about a high turnover
in .tenants. This high turnover, when coupled with a lack of concern
and money on the part af tenante, tends to cause accelerated deterior-

ation of rental units. The constraints relating to land availability and
financing apply to new structures for individual ownership and new rental
• structures alike. Hence, new construction ha.s hardly kept pace with the
demolition of substandard units.
Goal•
To build within the Model Neighborhood a stock of housing which, because
of its utility and suitability, the iroagination of its design and the
quality of open space and other amenities around it, will induce peaple
to stay in and�roove into the neighborhood.
Objectives: (Years 4-�)
1. By the end of the fourth year, build a minimum of 500 low and middle
in�come living units.
2. By the ead of the fourth year, develop and secure adoption of zoning
requirements which conform to the Physical and Land Use Plan, and
meets the special needs of the Model Neiglnborhood and permits the
• densities, land uses, traffic patterns, coromunity facilities, types
• of structures, structural components, and structural systems those
needs dictate.
3. By the fourth year, establish a Housing Information Bureau for the
Model Neighborhood.
4. By the fifth yeax, achieve a level of building codes enforcement
xithin the Model Neighborhood that is at least equal to city-wide
standards in ternis of frequency of inspection of structures in the
application of the codea.
5. By the fifth year, secure revisiona of the city building codes
which will control subdivision of structures.
Ob�ectives: (First Year)
1. Complete a study of the total Model Neighborhood housing situation

tion plan for the area based upon the findings of the study. Develop
• as an element of this study a program for a Housing Information
Bureau for the Model Neighborhood.
2. Develop in cooperation with the St. Paul Housing and Redevelopment
Authority a Physical and Land Use Plan for the Model Neighborhood.
3. Build a total of 150 new housing units in the Model Neighborhood;
100 of them for low income families; 50 for middle income families.
4. Tdentify al.l Model Neighborhood structurea which cannot be usefully
rehabilitated and eliminate 2596 of them. (Sites thus cleared for
which no immediate use is planned will be used as temporary loca-
tions for such amenities as small parks, pl�ygrounds and gardens.)
5. Draft a model zoning code for the Model Neighborhood and hold wide-
spread hearings within and outside the Model Neighborhood on its
provisions. Present the model code to local planning, building,
real estate and financial interests.
6, Determine frequency of code inspections and toughnees of enforce-
ment city-wide; establish what (in terms of manpower, money or
• policy changes) would be required to bring Model Neighborhood code
inspections to city-wide level; draft pla.n and schedule for two to
two and one half year long crash codes enforcement program; secure
city council adopta.on.
�. Define minimum acceptable standards of subdivision of structures
in terms of square footage per occupant, sanitary facilities�
power, emergency exits, etc.; draft and seaure passage.
Problem: Public Facilities and Public Services
Descrivtion:
.....__.
Araong the fundamental problems of the Model Neighborhood is the deteri-
orated and obsolete conditions of public facilities.
The importance of this problem is heightened by the great dependence of
Mid-Planning Statement, Public Facilities and Public Services
•

poor people upon such local community facilities.
• Major streets, which carry a high proportion of the traffic, are inade-
quate to handle peak traffic flows. The basic grid pattern of the
streets encourages excessive traffic in the residential areas. Many of
the streets are in need of reconstruction (over 9096 require roconstruction).
Many of the alleys are narraw and unpaved (approximately 80% need dra.i.na.�Q
and surface improvements). Sidewalks in the Model Neighborhood ha.ve de-
teriorated to the point where approximately 60�G6 present a eafety hazard.
Street lighting is obeolete or inadequate, especially in the residential
areas of the Model Neighborhood, The pre8ent level of luminosity is only
5(�6 of the level needed for automobile and pedestrian safety.
Because crime flourishes in darkness, citizens feel unsafe after dark in
many areas of the Model Neighborhood. A survey rever�led that 58.Ei�6 of the
citizens rrere dissatisfied with safety on the streets at night (the
highest percentage of all items surveyed).
• The land areas set aside for public uses such as vehicle parking. Off
street parking lots are needed near the business areas and would be de-
sirable in the narrow streeted residential areas.
Utilities such as sewers were designed for an earlier era and lighter
population densities. Back-up of sanitary sewers is a common problem.
Sewers must be replaced with sepaxated storm and sanitary sewers. The
water system is 70 to 80 years old and needs improvements such as nex
water service connections.
Public services such as street naintenance, street sweeping� �now
plowing, solid waste and garbage removal represents another dimension
of the problem. While the level of these services in the city ae a
whole are not at a sufficiently high level, the Model Neighborhood in

the view of the residents �uffers particularly.
• Where services or facilities could be provided privately, Model Nei�h-
borhood residents are unable to afford the services because of inadequate
income. Absentee landlords will not try to get public improvements be-
cause such demands will result in higher real estate taxes. La:ck of poli-
tical sophistication preventB man,y citizens from organized and effective
efforts to get improvements in public facilities and Bervic�s. The de-
terioration of facilities and the ina.dequate public service brings about
problems ranging from cri�ae to environmental health.
Goals:
To develop within the Model Neighborhood a system of public facilities
and services which will be adequate to meet the needs of present neigh-
borhood residents and which will encourage people to move into the area.
Objectives: (Years 4-�)
• 1. By the fourth year, impleroent all phases of the land use plan
including appropriate zoning changes.
2. By the fourth year, improve direct public services to the area by
development and implementation of a plan to train and employ Model
Neighborhood people in the delivery of the services.
3. By the end of the sixth year, widen arad imgrove the major streets
in the Model Neighborhood area.
4. By the end of the seventh yeas, complete reconstruction of residen-
tial streets and improvement of alleys.
5. By the end of the seventh year, complete upgrading of sewer and
water facilities.

Problem: Transportation
Descri�tion:
The problem of transportation affects every area of the Model Neighborhood.
• The 39.296 of families in the Model Neighborhood who do not own automobiles
must rely upon some form of public transportation to get them to commer-
cial, recreation.al, education, and employment centers of this Metropoli-
tan area.
Public transportation is not adequate in thzs entire metropolitan area.
The overall prablem is aGCentuated in the Model Neighborhood because the
public transportation, which must be rebid upon, is not up to the standard
of other parts of the metropolitan area.
The onl.y North-South bus line which serves the Model Neighborhood re-
stricts its hours of service to before 9:00 a.m, and after 3:00 p.m.
There is no North-South bus line which serves on holidays and weekends.
Mid-Planning Statement, R'ransportation
•
27
East-West service is available on Univereity (outside of the aorthern
border of the Model Neighborhood) and on Selby Avenue. Service on
• Selby Avenue is compounded by the necessity for multiple transfers to get
to ar�y area of the city other than the downtown core. Service to the
major industrial, employment, and shopping areas of the Northern and
Southern suburbs is slow, requires time consuming transfers, and is
most often undependable.
The unattractiveness of public transportation is further enhanced by the
Minnesota climate which is often hot and humid in the summer, and cold
and windy in the winter. Bu�es are not sir conditioned or we11 heated;
waiting areas are unprotected, unheated, and uncomfortable.
Taxi service is expensive and undependable. Certain cab companies will
not come into the Model Neighborhood at night. A new locaJ. cab company
is attempting to improve this situation.
Area residents have had little to eay about the type of public trans-
portation which serves them.

system which, in areas of employment, shopping, recreation, and
education, provides adequate transportation for all residents of

syst�m not being contemplated for the entire Metropolita� Area.
Problem: Aecreation
Description:
• The 1960 St. Paul Plannin� Board's cotamunity report noted that the Model
Neighborhood had only 2.11 acres of publicly owned land set aside for
neighborhood parks and 13.06 acres for neighborhood playgraunds. To
meet the standards of the National Recreation Association these averages
should be 32.�5 and 65.49 respectively.
The same report cites the absence of a single community wide park in the
Model Neighborhood and the Model Neighbarhood's relative isalation from
the city's community parks.
Isolation is emphasized by the fact disclosed by a 1965 study: nearly
4(� of Model Neighborhood househalds are without automobiles. Lack of
money is a reason for the low percentage of automobile owner�hip, also
closes the door to mar�y recreational opportunities outside the Model

. Neighborhood.
• Although it was hard pressed to give conclusive reasons for the finding�,
the Stone Survey of the Model Neighborhood residents' ,attitudes found
that 55.996 of its sample was "completely dissatisfied" with the Model
Neighborhood parks and playgrounds; the second highest degree of "com-
plete dissatisfaction"regiatered in the entire survey.
� In assessment of recreation problems, the Recreation Task �'orce of the
Model Neighborhood Planning Council noted these additional condition�:
a. There are few entertainment centers for youth 'in the community.
b. Pla�ygrounds and equipment do not reflect sensitivity to the
ne�ds of the community.
c. Existing recreation centers lack staff, both in terms of
numbers and adequate preparation, to provide youth with assis-
tance and leadership.
d. Lack of space for platiygrounds and parke compounds the other
problems mentioned and relates the provision of additionttl.
space for recreation to the larger problem of land use in the
• Model Neighborhood.
The amount and quality of infora�ation available on the subject of recrea-
tion and leisure time in the Model Neighborhood is low, as is the degree
of community consensus on needs and the place of recreation in the Model
Neighborhood community which the programs envision.
The attention which has bee� given to this area tends to view recreation
as an outdaor activity (giving little weight to indoor recreation in an
area of long and severe winters) and one important principally to the
young.
Goal:
To provide year-round opportunities for use of leisure time which fit

the needs of Model Neighborh.00d residents of a1.1 ages and varying condi-
tions of life.
•
Objectives:
1. By the seventh year, to have acquired and/or in operation sufficient
recreation and leisure-time facilities in the Model Neighborhaod to
meet the standards of year-round recreational opportunity estsblished
by the St. Paul Model Cities Program and embodied in the Model Neigh-
borhood recreation and leisure time activity plan.
2. By the sixth year, to have trained and employed sufficient Model
Neighborhood residents as recreation leaders to s�aff the facilities
that will be operative in the seventh year.
3. By the fifth year, to have in operation or acquisition sufficient
facilities for recreation or leisure time activity to meet halfway
the standards referred to in (1) above.
4. By the fourth year, to have trained and employed sufficient Model
Neighborhood residents as recreation leaders to staff the facili-
ties referred to in (3) above.
•
Objectives: (First Year)
1. As a part of an overall land-use plan for the Model Neighborhood,
establish a standard for year-round recreational opportunity which
is realistic for the St. Paul Model Neighborhood. (Development of
a local opportunity standard, rather than adoption of city-, etate-,
or nationwide standards for adequacy of recreation space -- is
dictated by two considerations. The first is the as yet unresolved
conflict between the lack of vacant land in the Model Neighborhood
and what i� assumed to be the Model Neighborhood residents' etrong
opposition to higher residential densities in the Model Neighbor-
hood than now prevail. The second is a desire to develop standards
of adequacy which iacludes, but are not expressed solely in terms

Stra�egy
• The federal government has set up certain requirements that must be met
in order to address the question of th� achievement of the objectives
that were set forth in overcoming the problems that are to be identified.
The main requirement is that the strategy statement �hould focus on the
plan as a whole and not on individual component parts. Therefore, the
achievement of the overall objectives established prior to this st�te-
ment will require that certain strategies of program approaches be
employed to attack the recurring root causes of the problems identified
in Part II.
These causes are:
1. Inadequate education
2. Insufficient income (unemployment and underemployment)
3. Discrimination (racial, economic, sexual and geographic)
4. Governmental and inetitutional neglect (inadequate delivery
of public and private services)
• 5. Ineffective Model Neighborhood resident involvement in public
policy and decision roaking)
To deal with these causes, basic program approaches will be employed
that seek to:
1. Raise the educational level of the Model Neighborhood residents
to effectively compete for earployment at all levels of the job
market, for further education both vocationally and profes-
sionally, and for knowledge to assume authoritative leadership
responsibility in a].1 areas of the Model Cities program.
2. Increase the employability of unemployed and undereroployed
Model Neighborhood residents through creation of a strong
economic base by the development of a broad spectrum of local
business enterprises, job training, basic job counseling and
education, transportation services, and the establiskunent of
new criteria for hiring residents.
• Mid-Planning Statement, Strategy
33
3. Attack discriminatory practices in businees ventures, hiring�
and lending policies, and achiova a levol of institutional
• change in education and teaching practices to eliminate harmful
racial, sexual, geographic and �ultural attitudes.
4. Make governmental and institutional agencies more responsive
to the needs of Model Neighborhood residents through use of
supplemental funds for prograros that most effectively chan�;e
the basic social, economic and physical problems of the area
in addition to improving cammunication, with emphasis on 1oca1
agencies.
5. Increase citizen participation by involving the Model Nei�hbor-
hood residents on boards, cosncils, and committee of agencies;
and groups conducting pro�ects and programs that affect the
Model Neighborhood area, to include public policy development
with special emphasis on the Model Cities program in the plan-
ning and development of programs in particular.
Supplemental funds will be used exteneively to finance the development
• of programs that will have a multi-problem impact with emphasis on those
program approaches which will produce the greatest institutional changea
in more effectively serving the Model Neighborhood residents' problems.
These fund8 will be used as local share monies for new program8 or ex-
panded existing programs to be financed froar categorical grant programs.
Supplemental funds wi11 also be used as an investment strategy that will
seek a high ratio of matching funds to supplemental funds yet emphasize
projects that relate to resident involvement in planning and program
implementation. This approach will increase the financial aid to the
Model Cities area and at the same time develop residential leadership
and knowledge.
Supplemental funds will be used to develop programs that will have an
immediate .and highly visible impact upon the area to establish confi-
dence of the Model City residents that soaiething can be done. because
• Mid-Planning Statement, Strategy
34
the area has too long been in the planning state with no visible results.
• Finally, and perhaps most importantly, supplemental funds will be heavily
used in those programs fostering economic renewal through �obs, business
opportunities and resident ownership. Special emphasis will be placed on
the financing of those program approaches that will be administered by
new Model Neighborhood corporations or businesses who will provide experi-
ence and training to the Model Neighborhood residents.
Basic Ways Plans Will Be Carrfed Out:
In administration of the pro�ects and activities of the program, the city
wi11 rely principally on contracts with existing public agencies who are
capable and willing to undertake the operation of programs in the manner
for which they have been designed. Delegation of program operation to
Model Neighborhood or city-wide comraunity corporations will be considered
when such public agencies cannot be found.
• In the majority of cases where program operation will be let to existing
public agencies, the essential strategy of the city will be to secure
adept, efficient program administration while securing from the agency
in question those changes in institution and institutional practice
which have been identified as crucial in the planning process.
The city also will use the s�rvices of existing private agencies, �arti-
cularly those operative within the Model Neighborhood� for administration
and operation of some of its programs. The guiding strategy here will be
to use and select such groups to build conununity competence to operate
skillfully in the physical and social and ecanomic areas and to bring the
sometimes fragmented organizations and groups within the neighborhood
together in a unified and working Model Neighborhood coalition. In this
fashion, the city hopes to make community cohesion and skill products
of the Model City program.
• Mid-Planning Statement, Strategy
35
Beyond the building of a community coalition through the use of such
existing private agencies as the Urban League, Inner City Youth League.
• the Loft, Summit-University Federation, the city hopes to use these
agencies to fulfill another strategy: the building of a coalition of
interests among the Model Neighborhood and groups with which it can
make common cause in the larger St. Pau1 and �►in Cities Metropolitan
coromunities. Such a coalition will speed the work of the program and
make room in its endeavors for the contributions of voluntary action�
which in the city's view, are potentially very valuable. If, in the
process, through the use of supplemental money and the CDA's and MN�"C's
planning capacity, the city can assist the voluntary sector to come to
a better roeans of matching the work that needs to be done with the or.-
ganizations or groups most capable of doing that particular �ob well,
it will consider that it has made an important contribution.
The planning of this Comprehensive Demonstration Program has rested on
a premise that is, also, an element of program strategy. That is. that
a basic purpose of this program is to lay the foundation for a community
• that is diverse economically, racial.ly and ethnically by improvi.ng the
quality of those institutions at which people look when they are making
a decision as to where they rrant to live in a city (education, retail
consumption, public and private amenities, etc.).
A final basic w�y in which the administration of the firat year action
plan will be accomplished is the method of contracting referred to
above. Each existing agency with r+hom the CDA contracts will be re-
quired in the contract it signs, to meet certain performance standards
in terms of results achieved and method of operation. and to agree to
a clearly stated method of making changes in program operation wh�n
such is indicated by the program impac� evaluation system.
Program Coordination:
The city approaches the question of program coordination with a strang
• Mid-Planning Statement, Strategy
�_
3f�
mandate from the City Council to achieve such coordination in the Madel
Cities program and xith a conviction that, of all the methods of coar-
• dination known to us, the surest lies in the planning process. What
has been joined together in planning, we believe, is harder for man to
put asunder than that which was planned asunder and later seeks to be
jointed by administrative contrivance.
This faith in the coordinative powers of planning rests partly on the
city's definition of planning as decision making across the range of
program concerns beginning with problem analysis, going through re-
source allocation and ending with evaluation and continuing planning.
In order for the city and the Model Neighborhood Planning Council to
work and act effectively together to achieve program coordination the
following steps will be taken:
1. St. Paul will strive to promote widespread acceptance far
comprQhensive planning from Model Neighborhood residents,
local government and the a�encies, through effective twa-way
communication and exchange of information, first with each
• other as co-partners in the decision making, while at the
sarae time working with the agencies.
2. The authority of the Mayor in cooperation with the Model
Neighborhood Planning Council has been utilized to form a
Technical Advisory Committee.
This Technical Advisory Cotaaittee made up of 1oca1 Agencies (nei�hbor-
hood and external vased agencies) will be utilized to persuade locr�l
agencies and institutions to make greater efforts at cooperation with
the Model Cities program to avoid dupli.cation of agency performance
and overall delivery of services.
Through strong emphasis on this use of plar�ning the Model Cities pro�ram
will be viewed as an integrated system of projects and efforts rather

• -

than a sum total of individual parts. With thi� "whole system reference"
approach, the MNPC and the Mayor and City Council will be able to avoid
• or balance ar�y claims various interest clientele and agency groups who
seek to put their special stamp on the program.
Roles of the Participants:
_�_
The M�yor and City Council in partnership with the Model Neighborhood
Planning Council must together provide the leadership to i.nsure the
success of the Model Cities program. They must interpret it� meaning to
the larger St. Paul community that it is a local program supported by
federal funds to demonstrate new innovative approaches tn old prablems
through the workability of Model Neighborhood resident participation.
The Mayor and City Council are responsible for bringing the city'e re-
sources together in the maintenance of the pr4gram. The CDA director
who reports da,rectly ta the Mayor will have immediate responsibility
for direction and coordination. The Mayor and City Council are in a
position to give frequent review to program developroents and can uso
• their authority to achieve coordination and more effective responee
from agencies and city departments by requirin� joint working togeti�er
and preparation of programs by city departments and the MNPC.
The public agencies will be heavily involved in the planning through
the formation of a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). Compoaed of the
heads of each agency to be a source of advice and assistance on types
of programs, ideas, and statistics, and to avoid conflicting policie�,
administrative difficultie$ and questions of procedures in the mfa�or
administrative planning decisions reaahed by the t+INPC. This second
level of their involvement will be the provision of agency staff people
on loan to be advisors at the planning level with the MNPC staff and on
the three task forces involving the social, economic, and physical.
areas. The third level of public agettcy involvement will be listed in
Part II of the First Year Action programs that vill have citizens
• Mid-Planning Statement, Strategy
38
involved in the pragram operation through employment opportunities.
• The private sector will be contected to secure assistance in terms of
funds and expertise through the St. Paul Urban Coalition majorly, and
the Junior Chamber of Commerce. These two roa�or bodies will be ap-
proached to plan programs to institute changes within their own areas
of business for employment of the Model City residents� especiA.l.ly the
minorities� and serve also as a means of further involvement of others
of the private sector.
In diacharging its responsibility to plan and assist in carrying out
the St. Paul Model Cities program, the MNPC will concentrate on these
functions:
a. Continuing planning and eva.luation
b. Securing widespread participation of Model Neighborhood resi-
dents on planning, evaluation and implementation of the pro-
gram and its components.
To better carry out these responsibilities, MNPC, beginning in the
• upcoming "hiatus" period, will seek training for itself and its staff
in techniques required for competence in the discharge of pl�nning,
evaluation and citizen participation.
Reeident participation in program planning and implementation will be
extensive. The NINPG staff personnel will assist and support the re-
sidents in developing additional community interest, evaluate agency
performance, and in the establishment of Model Cities program stan-
dards and. requirements.
The CDA will be reeponsible for overall program coordination and eval-
uation. It will be the focal point for the production and transmission
of information to other governments, to local a�encies, to the Mayor
and City Council and to the residents.
• Mid-Planning Statement, Strategy
3y
The state and federal agencies will also participate by. providing fund�
and transmitting needed information and technical assistance toward
• making the program more effective.
Special efforts have been made by the Minnesota State Plannin� A�ency's
Executive Director of the State Urban Affairs Council to supply infor-
mation on securing of matching state funds, to provide technical as�i�-
tance writers for some of our programs, to share costs of hirin� consul-
tants, and most significantly to establish a linkage with the other two
Model City areas of Minneapolis and Duluth.
Institutional Chant�e:
Clearly, our planning activities have led us to a first acquaintance with
areas in which we sense the need for changes in institutions and inetitu-
tional practices and in existing laws and regulations. We would add to
the above list aur strongly felt sensibility that changes are needed in
basic law and 1aw enforcement in areas such as building, health and
• zoning, general contractor bonding, insurance and lending� consumer pro-
tection, equal employment opportunity and elsewhere.
The requirements of the other portions of the planning process have
denied us the time and energy to explore these sensibilities more deeply,
to document the exact areas where change is needed, to describe the
needed change in detail and to prepare a work program for the achieve-
ment of the needed change. Doing all this will be a matter of urgent
priority during the "hiatus" period.
Finally, all local institutions tha.t are concerned with human needs must
increase the scope and spread of their response to the Model Neighborhood
residents by developing an objecti.ve attitude, eliminate the double st�n-
dard practices, and w�ed out separate conflicting functions.
• Mid-Planning Statement, Strategy
40
IACal Resource Allocations or Reallocations:
• The pursuit of the first yea.r program approaches and the strategies out-
� lined alone will not require reallocation of the City's Capital Improve-
ment Budget (CIB) funds, or the States Urban Renewal Bond Funds for
capital expenditures. These monies have already been allocated for the
St. Paul Housing and Redevelopment Authorities NDP Year I and II ProgrAms�
the NDP Year I Program having been instituted before the Model Cities
Program was in operation. The future allocation will surely continue
under the HRA's administrative �urisdiction, vith the Mod�l Cities
Physical Core and staff working together with the HI2A staff to develop
plans as a single unit body.
Allocatione of some funds from the Department of HEW through the state
have been channeled into the Model Cities area through the city to the
Board of Education and the Health and Welfare departimenta. However, th�
provision of di.rect supplemental funds to the Model Cities Program will
prompt reallocation of more funds into the Model Cities area with the
• help of public agencies who will secure these grant-in-aid programs as
part of their 3ob as technical advieors and assistants. The Minnesot�
State Planning Agency especially, and the Metropolitan Council staffs
have been very helpful in this capacity. The local OEO TACC groups
has also begun to work with our Model Neighborhood Planning Council to
reallocate more funds into the are�.
The private sector has also helped to gain funds. An example is the
Community Helth and Welfare Council as the planning staff for the
United F�nd allocated funds with the development of the new Martin I�uther
King multi-purpose community center to receive HEW matching funds. Uther
additional fund allocations will b� gotten through the Urban Coalition
and other private sources.

Maximum Resident Employment:
• Since an iarportant objective of the MNPC is to expand and build an
economic base for the neighborhood residents, critical t�.ttention will
be given to all of our projects that require of the sponsoring agency
contracts that will assure the employment and reslistic training of
Model Neighborhood residents for jobs that relate to the present and
future market needs at all levels of the ladder from the paraprofessional
to the professional level. Programs wi11 be developed which will be
directed toward job training, placement, and continued education at all
levels.
Special emphasis will be placed upon programs to be developed which will

services that will be provided by the health clinic, but will ;�ave more
flexibility to provide needed service for youth and senior citizens by
• going directly to the schools and senior citizen housing pro�ects on a
scheduled basis.
This program will also provide training for Model Neighborhood residents
for various positions in the health field.
During the operation of this pro,ject, planning will be underway for the
establishment of a complete comprehensive medical program. In addition,

range of supportive social services to the recipients of the medical
services provided by the clinic and mobile health unit.

' NAME OF PROJECT: Rehabilitation Loans and G ants
ADMINISTII2ING AGENCY: St. Paul Housing and R development Authority
SUHCONTRACTING AGENCY: None
PURPOSE AND B�TEFICIARIES:
The Urban Renewal Program in the Model Neigh orhood has been roaking
federal loans and grants available for rehab litation. Generally,
there is a delay of 30- g0 days before Secti n 312 Loans are approved
by the Housing and Redevelopo�ent Authority d the Department of Housing
and Urban Development. In some cases, the 1 an or grant is to be made
to the property owner who must make emergenc repairs. However, he me�y
not begin work until his application for f e ia approved. In some
instances, the 30 - 90 day waiting period r quired for loan and grant
processing is a great inconvenience to the roperty owner (i.e. , the
grant is to be made to a person whose furna e has gone out and it is
January.) Our proposal is ta set aside a s pplemental fund to be
utilized at no interest charge for emergenc work. These funde would
be available to the property owner until th loan or grant is approved.
• Supplemental funds will also be utilized to assist in rehabilitation
' funding in cases r+here low-incom�e or �elderl property o�+rners find that
the section 115 rehabilitation grant is not sufficient to complete the
work properly. At the present, if the wor to be done costs more than
the grant, and the receipient of the grant does not have personal funds
available to make up the difference, it is impossible for him to obtain
a grant.
CONTENT AND OPERATION:
Supplemental funds will be ueed to provide monies to residents who have
applied for Section 115 Rehabilitation Gr ts, and Section 312 Rehsbilitation
' Loans but because of delays have not rece' ed the loan or grant. When the
loan or grant is approved the supplementa fund will be reimbursed. In the
possibility that the loan is not approved the administering agency would
locate a local lending institute to purch se the note. The difference be-
tween the open market interest rate and t t of the 312 Loan would be payed
for from the revo�.ving account. The maxi wn amount of a loan wauld be
�5,�•
In some situations the 115 grants do not over all of the work that ie
required to be done to receive the work. These low-income people cannot
afford to obtain loans and therefore add' ional funds Kould tae used as
grants to those people to complete the t tal rehabilitation. The sugpla-
mental grants will be limited to a maxim of �1,000.

ADMINISTERING AGENCY: Model Cities-Urban Coalition Appointed Board
SUBCONTRACTING AGENCY: None
PURPOSE AND BENE;FICIARIES:
In many cases students and their parent� do not know about the great
number of colleges and institutions that open their doors to many
students besides thoae in the upper quarter of their high school clasees.
Additional scholasships go unclaimed because those people who qualify
do not know they exist.
The Higher Education Resource Center will provide information about schoole
and scholarships to students and their parents. Scholarships will be pro-
vided for a limited number of residents who cannot find funds from other
sources.
CONT�'N"P AND OPE�tATION:
The Higher Education Information Center will provide:
• 1. An information c�nter in the community to diapense data about schools,
echolarships, and student qualifications. Make information available
to parents and students at all levels so they can plan and look forward
to educational opportunities beyond the public school level.
2. Counseling and planning assistance to those seeking information on
career opportunities in post high school training institutes.
3. Assistance to residents in securing admission to poet high school
institutions.
4. A six week sumtner "Higher Education Transition" seminar for persons
anrolling in institutions of higher education the following fall. This
seminar would be mandatory for those students selected to receive
assistance under the Education Assistance F�nd. Staff and counseling
personnel for the seminar would be provided by colleges and universities
in the Twin Cities area.
5. Assistance in securing grants, scholar+�hips, and loans available
through the institutions of higher education, foundations, and
grivate industry.
6. On-going follow up and counseling to those residents enrolled in
institutions of higher learning.

SUPPOATIVE EDUCATION PROJECT
• An Overview
Conclusions drawn from the Mid-Planning Statement indicates that curriculum
is not often relevant to the needs of students attending schools in the
Model Neighborhood Community, nor does it sufficiently reflect more of the
ethnic groups living in the community. There has been a lack of personnel
needed to test and evaluate inidividuals needs in order to implement new
methods in education.
In some instances teachers have stereotyped ideas about low-income and
minority children. Some teachers have low expectations of the children
in regard to achievement and behavior. Others fail to use innovative,
communicative, and motivative approache� ta learning. A few teachers
isolate learning to sub�ect area rather than integrating the skill� and
information required.
The purpose of this pro�ect is to improve the present educational delivery
system to adequately meet the needs of the students of the Model Neighbor-
hood as defined in the Mid-Planning Statement by providing funds to the
St. Paul Public School System to finance demonstration projects which would
otherwi�e not be operable.
Coordination will continue to take place between Model Cities and the St.
Paul Board of Education to either expand or provid� ssrviae$
through the Supportive Educational Pro�ect. The components of this pro�ect
are as follows:
• l. Operation Careers
2. Experimental Counseling
3. Special Resource Teachers
4. Youth Servin� Youth
5. Community School Coordinator
6. Home-School Liaison
7. Kindergarten and l.st Grade Demonstration Pro�ect
A Supportive Educational Pro3ect Advisory Co�arnittee will be established to
assist in policy decisions of the project.

SUBCONTRACTING AGENCIES: None
PURPOSE AND BENF�'ICIARIES:
The program is intended, as a demonstration program aimed at 1.5� tenth
grade high school students, to determine whether or nat cutting the
caseload of H. S. counselors from the present 350 to 75 students will.
significantly increase the retention of potential drop-outs.
CONTENT AND OPERATION:
Two additional high school counselors will be assigned to the Central
High Schaol counseling staff. Their caseload will come from 1,50 Model
Neighborhood tenth grade students. Those students which are moBt apt
to drop out of high school will be chosen first. Intensive �uidance
service will be provided to the students. Where necessary or ndvis-
� able, curriculum chan�es will be made which will more realisticall,y
conform to the needs of the individual student. At the recommendation
of Model Cities, other �ovative counseling approaches will be taken.
TIMETABLE:
The program is a three year demanstration program to start when r�up-
plemental funds are available. Year one will be aimed at the sopho-
more class, year two at the junior class, and year three at the
senior class.
FUNDII�G:
Demonstration funding will be almost entirely from Model Cities funds.
It is expected that major changes in the high school counseling system�
prompted by the success of this pro�ect, will make funding beyond the
third year unnecessary. The ma�ox•ity of monies will be invested i.n
project personnel.
PROJEJCT ADMINISTRATION:
The project will be administered by Minnesota Independent School
District #625. The School District will, on a demonstration basis�

F'URPOSE AND BENEFICIARIES:
The purpose of this project is ta provide Model Neighborhood children
with a program calculated to continue the educatinnal momentum �;ained
from their experience in Head Start or Pre-Schoal I'rogr�,ms. The �ro-
gram is designed to assist these youngsters by dia�nosing and trer�ting
deficiencies in language, number concepts, verbAl :�kil.ls, phyeical
state, psycho-social state (including especially the self-concept)
which would handicap the child in achieving a sixccessful per•fox•mr�nce
pattern in the primary school,and cwnulatively, thereafter. The pro-
ject will be aimed at all publicly supported kindergarten and first
grade classes in the Model Neighbvrhood. It is designed to achievc
better utilization of the strengths of teachers and teach�r aidc� in
working with their classes �ay making possible a small teache.r-�upil
• ratio.
CONTENT AND OP�2ATION:
The plan for this demonstration project is batsed on a model from the
Ypsilanti Demonstration Project in Xpsilanti, Michi�an. The dr�ta from
this project indicates that children will benefit from any structured
curriculum that is based on a wide range of experiences and that provideE;
foz• close attention to the needs of individual children r�nd invol.v�ment
of the staff in the total operation. Other data from follow-�hrou�;h
type pro�rams in the country shows similar results. This pro�oct w:il.l
be an experiment in team-teaching and staff differentir�tion. It wi11:
1. reduce clas� size by }/z.
2. double the number of professionally trained persannel.
teaching kindergarten and first grade in the ModPl NFi�hbor-
hood.
3. assi�n one Model Neighborhood teacher aide to each of the
classes
4. modify curriculum
5. achieve a more flexible ezse of time and student grouping��
6. explore the use of aide� in small group instruction util.ixin�;

8. lengthen the kindergarten day.
It is anticipated that the sma11 ratio of teacher to students, coupled
with the use o.f aides and supportive help from the re�t of thc� sta.ff will
allow the school to concentrate the first two years of school on the
areas of language development, readi.n� readiness, reading be�;i.nning

NON-SUPPLED�iTAL FVNDED PROJECTS
1. Community Action Program-The purpose is to mobilize and coordinate
resources in an effort to comb�at poverty.
The operating agency is the Ramsey County Citizen's Committee for
Econoraic Opportunity, Inc. The agency has developed almost a full
range of programs dealing with the sociail and economic ills of the
Model Neighborhood (Target Area A), including: Community Organi�ation,
Neighborhood Service Center, Job development, Headstart, motivational
tutoring, medical care, emergency food. legal assistance, youth deve-
lopment, senior citizen's service, VISTA� USDA suppl.emental foods,
and Welfare Day Care.
Model Cities will, for certain service�, contract with the CAP agency
which will insure a degree of programatic coordination. Model Cities
and the CAP agency will have a reciprocal referral relationship and
programmatic duplication will be avoided.
The funding level of the CAP Programs having impact in the Model
Neighborhood has been secured at approximately $418,000.
Target Area "A", which includes the Model Cities area, has been
• established a Target Area Advisory Council composed of residents
whose responsibilities are:
1. Make all ma�or planning recommendations for the target
area.
2. Establish priorities.
3. IntervieW and make recommendations for professional
staff.
4. Participate in the evaluation of the total pro�ect
operation.
PreBently, there are approximately 60 residents employed in this pro�ect.
Bylaws require that neighborhood residents be considered first for a11
employment.

pro�ec is o provi e asic emp oymen s i s and educational traini.ng
to dieadvantaged unemployed and underemployed persons. The pro�ect
offers pre-vocational training in the following areas:
-air conditioning repair
-drafting
-computer programming
-auto brake repair
As supportive to the pre-vocational areas, the project offere services
in the following areas:
-basic education
-general education diploma (GED) preparation
-methadone drug treatment
-emergency food
-�ob development
-�ob placement
-counseling and follow-up
The operating agency is the St. Paul Opportunities Industrialization
Center. At the time of this writing, Model Cities cannot indicate how
and to what extent the two pro�ects will be coordinated. It is antici-
pated hoWever, that the OIC program will be a referral source for the
• Model Cities Programs, especially OIC's Methadone drug treatment program.
The Model Cities Program will be an obvious referral source of supportive
services for OIC. OIC enrollees will have benefit of the day care services,
health services and facility, and the �5nployment Center as well as other
proposed Model Cities Pro�ects. It is further anticipated that a contract
will be negotiated between OIC and Model Cities, requiring OIC to pravide
services to the proposed Model Citiea Employment Center. Details are to
be worked out and finalized at a later date.
Currently, funds have been secured at a level of approximately $130,000.
Efforts are underway to increase the total funding leveZ to approximately
$400,000 by submitting f�znding requests to various Federal� State and
Local agencies.
The OIC Program has a Board of Directors comprised largely of Neighbor-
hood residents rrho are responsible for the planning, evaluation, and admini-
stration of the over-all pro�ect.
The present staff of OIC is approxinately 9096 neighborhood residents. It
is the agency policy to hire neighborhood residents whenever feasible. If
a contract is successfully negotiated between OIC and Model Cfties, a
stipulation will require hiring preference to neighborhood residente whenever
feasible.

3. The Ramsey County Welfare Department-The purpose of this pro�ect ae
it relates to the Model Neighborhood is to provide assistance for a
percentage of Model Neighborhood residents in maintaining a aubsistance
level while attemptin� to aid them in becoming economically independent.
In addition to categorical aid to Model Neighborhood residents, this
agenc,q and the Model Cities will enter into a grantee-contractual
relationship in the Model Cities proposed Child Devolopment Pro�ect
through the utilization of Social Security Act, Title IV, Section 2A
funds. The Work Incentive Program (WIN) sponsored bq the Welfare
Department will reserve 10�6 of a total �00 slots for Model Neighbor-
hood residents. WIN will receive full cooperation from the proposed
Model Cities Employment Cen�er.
Model Cities anticipates a contractual agreement for aponaorghip of
the New Careers Program with the Ramsey Caunty Welfare Department
which currently has a limited New Careers Program.
A21 fuading of the Ramsey County Welfare Department is on a county-
wide basis and allocations are not prorated according to neighborhood
or area. However, on occasions special consideration is given to
particular neighborhoods or areas through programmatic arrangements
• such as reserving 10;� of the Work Incentive Program slots for Model
Neighborhood residents.
Programs having Model Cities funding mither administered� sponsored
or having input of the Ramsey County Welfare Department will have
advisory groups comprised of Model Neighborhood residents that will
be responsible for the over-all planning, evaluation, and adrainistration
of the pro�ects.
Some pro�ects sponsored or to be sponsored by the Raarsey County Welfare
Department are geared specifically for the employment of Model Neigh-
borhood residents: e.g. New Careers, Work Incentive Program (WIN). In
these pro�ects Model Cities will encourage Model Neighborhood reeident
employment at all levels including administrative. In those projects
receiving Model Cities funds a contract stipulation will require first
preference for hiring to be given to Model Neighborhood residents.

ADMINISTRA.TTVE STRUCTURE REPORT
• I. Introduction
The St. Paul Model Cities Program - Summit-Univer�ity AreA functions as
a partnership between the city of St. Paul and the residents of the Mode1
Neighborhood.
The working agreement between the city and the residents was evolved through
a �low and difficult process of negotiation. The finalized agreement
became City Ordinance No. �43�4. With its approval on November 22, 1969,
the City Council created a Department of Model City Area Development,
The staff of this new department then becaate the entire staff for the pro-
gram, including the CDA staff function. The City Council and Mayor ultima-
tely have the CDA voting power.
The citizen participation structure is based upon the Model Neighborhood
Planning Council. This 30 member council is made up of five (5) resident�
• elected for each of the six (6) districts of the Model Neighbox•hood. The
MNPC, directly and through staff, coordinates the work of the Planning Corss
and Task Forces which are made up of Council members and other res�.dents.
Through the separate narratives and the charts which follow, we hope to
explain the various functions and provide insights into the: working rela-
tionships between the various functions.
II. Staff Adminis�rative Organization
Having completed the planning for the First Action Year, the St. Paul Model
Cities Program raust expand its Administration Organization to meet the
additional responsibilities which are to be carried out during the First
Action Year.
Administrative Structure Report
• __ ___. _.. _,._�_,..
1?_4
The present agency staff, with Technical Assistance through HUD, the help
of consultants, and the review by citizens has designed an overall adminis-
• tration organization and staffing pattern which they are confident wi11
provide adequate administrative machinery to carry out the program plc�nned
for this year.
The basic staff functions of planning� connmunity organization, and internal
administration will be expanded to include project operation and coordina-
tion, project monitoring, program and project evaluation, development of
matching Grants-In-Aid, accounting, training and public information. Certain
existing functions must also be expanded to meet the new needs.
To provide for these additional responsibilities, a four unit agency organi-
zational structure has been developed for the First Action Year.
The four units are: Project Planning and Operations, �baluation, Monitoring
and Data, Administrative Services, and Community Organization. An Organiz�-
tional Chart depicting this structure is part of this section (See Appendix
• I). The Staff Outline details the staffing pattern in terms of types of'
positions projected and the number of employees in the various classifications
(See Appendix II).
Functional Statements for each of the organizational units have also been
prepared (See Appendix III).
The relationship of the Model Cities Staff to the city government is based
upon the City Ordinance creating a Department of Model City Aren Development.
This department has the responsibility for caxrying out the program. Both
the Model Cities Executive Director and Deputy Director are appointed by the
Mayor upon the recommendation of the Model Neighborhood Planning Council and
with approval of the St. Paul City Council. As a regular city department
head, the Executive Director reports directly to the Mayor. A1.1 agency �taff
members other than the Director and Deputy Director are hired by the Director

The Model Cities Agency is sub�ect to the joint supervision and direction
of the Model Neighborhood Planning Council and the CAA (City Council). 7'he
Executive Director reports at least bi-weekly to the Model Neighborhood
Planning Council and the MNPC Executive Committee. The entire staff work�a
closely with the MNPC and Citizens Committees providing coordin�tion and
technical assistance to support the planning effort of the residents.
III. Citizen Partici_pation Structure
Both the city ordinance creating the Model Cities Agency as A separate
city department and the HITD requirements call for residettts being involved
in all aspects of the program.
The 30 member Model Neighborhood Planning Council ie the group elected by
• the residents of the Model Neighborhood to represent them. The Model
Neighborhood wa,s divided into six districts and five people were elected
to the Model Neighborhood Planning Council (MNPC) from each district to
serve for a term of two years. To assure representation of the community,
procedures pex�m3.tted the election in each district of three candidates over
21 years of age (cl,assified as Adult-General), one limited income candidate
over 21 years of age (Adult-Special), and one Youth candidate between th�
ages of 16 and 20 inclusive.
The MNPC functions as an entire body and through an Executive Committee
consisting of the officers; appointed chairmen of the Personnel Committee
and Eeonomic, Social, and Physical Cores; and a repreaentative of each
District and of the Youth, (if not otherwise included among tha officers
of Core Chairmen).
Administrative Structure Report
• l.��E,
The MNPC meets bi-weekly at schools, churches, activity centers, and
• residences for the elderly within the Model Neighborhood. The meeting�
are open to the public. Residents have ample opportunity at these meeting�
to express their support or displeasure about the leadership And the
direction the program is taking.
Since the responsibilities of the agency are increased during the First
Action Year, it is necessary to revise the citizen participation structure
to insure that residents have an opportunity to be involved in the new
responsibilities. Although the Model Neighborhood Planning Council is
incorporated, the Model Cities staff will continue to supply the needed
staff support rather than funding a separate staff for the non-profit
corporation.
Organization Chart: An organizational structure which allowa the i�U�1I'C and
other residents to be involved in continuous planning, monitoring, coor-
dination, evaluation and coromunity arganization was developed. (See Appen-
dix V. ) The community organization unit shown on the chart is part of the
• staff, but its functiom is to lend the needed staff support to the ca.tizen
participation structure. In addition, a new permanent committee is being
formed, the Evaluation and Monitoring Committee. The purpot�es of this
committee is explained in the Continuous Planning and Evaluation Section.
Procedures for Involving Neighborhood Residents in theO�eratio�s of the
Program: While the other parts of this plan describe the relationahips
between the Model Cities staff and the Model Neighborhood Planning Council�
a summary of these procedures is set forth in Appendix VI.
Plans for Training and F�nploying Model Neighborhood Residents .in the Admin-
istration of the Model Cities Program: The proposed administrative struc-
ture for the First Action Year includes a Community Organization Director,
an Assistant Community Organizer, a.nd six Resident Planners. It is under-
stood that the residents of the Model Neighborhood will be employed in
• Administrative Structure Report � y���
1;J
thase jobs. This unit of the staff will undergo a training program re�ating
� to community organization and special training for their work in Monitoring
and Evaluation. To the extent feasible, residents of the Model Neighborhood
will be employed in other staff positi�ns.
In order to build local s�aff capabilities, an �ployment and Trainin�
Officer has been made a part of the organizational structure. This person
will plan, develop, and coordinate training for residents employed in the
admin�stration of the Model Cities Pro�ram and i� the projects operated
under the program. Other parts of this plan such as the Resident E�nployment
Section provide further information.
N. Procedures for Involving Other Agencies in the Model Cities Program
Since a major goal of the Model Cities Program is to bring about institutional
change and because in most cases the program will have to depend upon existing
agencies to operate Model Cities projects, it is important that institutions
and a�encies inside and outside the Model Neighborhood be involved in con-
� tinous planning. While many of these groups have worked very closely with
MNPC and staff during the planning period, it is recognized thnt increaaed'
involvement is necessary. The following are guidelines for involving and
seeking the support of the agencies.
1. An inventory will be made of all institutions and agencies
operating in the Model Neighborhood and the larger community. The
responsibility for coarpleteing this inventory will be assumed by
the Community Organization Director and the Resident Planners.
2. The Model Cities staff will continue to seek technical assis-
tance from agencies. These people should be participating in the
various Cores and serve as technical advisors. In this way the
agencies will be involved in planning projects which :they may be
called upon to operate. The staff responsibility will be as�igned
• Administrative Structure Report �__A` _M
12�i
to the Project Planning and �eration Unit. The T�chnical Advisory
Committee will be the focus for this activity.
�
3• The Model Cities staff wi11 actively seek loaned staff, espe-
cially from the state agencies and the State University. Staff on
loan would be especially valuable as part of the planning unit of
the staff. It is intended that the four (4) positions on thQ Organi-
zational Chart identified as Assistant Planner Agen� (See Appendix
1) will be staff inembers on loan to Model Cities. Loan staff from
the University could be helpful to the Evaluation, Monitoirng, and
Data unit and they could also assist in identifying anci seek:ing
funds for projects and writing proposals.
4. Before any technical advisors or loaned staff are taken on as
part of the Model Cities Program an orientation program wi11 be
developed. This program wi11 include among other things, precissly
what is expected, who is to supervise loan staff and general know-
ledge about the St. Paul program and the meaning and purposes of
the Model Cities Program.
�
5• In addition to the foregoing, the MNPC and Model Citfes 8taff
will develop a means of communicating on a continuing basis with
the various institutions and agencies.

Statement of Consultant and Contract Services
• Followin� are brief narrativ� statements justifyin� the purpose for
which various consultant and contractual services are to be used during
the first action year.
Program and Project Evaluation
The Eva�l.uation and Monitoring Committee will study the program's evaluation
needs with the assistance of the CDA staff. They will identi.iy areas of
the program to be studied in depth and as,k private firms with this sort of
capability to make proposals for such evaluation. The CDA will contract
with such firms to provide the services required. The cost is estimated
on the basis of similar work in other Model Cities programs. �35,000.
Planning Training and Technical Assistance
The CDA will contract with a private consulting firm having experti�e in
• training techniques, urbsn plannin� and Model Cities to provide training
to the NINPC Council, core and taskforce leaders, and CDA Staff in the
plannin� process. This is necessary to develop a more coordinated and
more professional approach toward on-going planning and planning in the
coming years. The cost estimate would cover the consultant's fees r�r►d
expenses for a series of ineetings and seminars. $20,000.
Communi� Organization Training and Technical Assistance
The CDA will contract with a private consulting firm having expertise
in Community Organization in programs such as Model Cities. The firm
will provide broad technical assistance to the MNPC and the CUA Staff
and specific training to the �eight members of the CDA Community Organ-
ization Staff. Cost estimated by takin� into consideration the mag-
nitude of the work and the normal charges made by consultin� firms.
$10,000.

Data Collection and Survey Techniques Trainin� and Technical Aasist�nce
• The CDA will contract with an individual or a private consulting firm
having expertise in the techniques of data collection, surveys and
related skills for developing statistical information. The consult�nt
will train the staff of Resident Planners and others so that information
gathered in the Monitoring and Evaluation process will be statisticFil.ly
valid. The cost estimate covers the consultant's fees and expen�eU for
a series of ineetin�s. �7,000.
Lega1 Serxices
The CDA will retain a law firm with expertise in drawin� and ne�otiating
contracts to write contract provisions, review proposed agreements, ne�o-
tiate with the administering agencies. They will also provide other
necessary legal services durin� the year especially relating to land use.
The cos� is estimated by taking into consideration the work projected and
legal fees in this area. $12,000.
• Conducting of Surve�s
These costs would be incurred as a part of the Evaluation and rionitoring
activity. To develop baseline data, project data or program stati.:�tics,
it will be necessary to engage individuals or firms to conduct statistical
surveys in the Model Neighborhood. The cost is estimated on the basis of
usual costs for this type of work. $7,500.
Other Professional Consultant or Contractual Services
This is a fund intended to pay the cost of services of the type (but in

Introduction
� The Continuous Planning and E�valuation Statement that the St. Paul Model
Cities Program has prepared is intended to be the first version of a
continually evolving structure for evaluating and re-programming the efforts
of this program. lafhile this statement cannot be precise in all matters,
it does present the basic principles of evaluation to which St. Paul intende
to adhere during the course of the next five years.
I. Relationships Between Continuous Planning and Evaluation
A. Structure
EWaluation and continuous planning are really the reverse sides .
of the same coin. During the planning period, the St. Paul Model
Cities Program analyzed the conditions of the Model Neighborhood
and determined the needs to be met through program activities.
Based on this definition of needs, core area objectives and pro-
gram area objectives were developed. In addition, prograra stra-
tegies were formulated for the achievement of these ob3ectiveg.
• The final product of the first year's planning activity was the
development of projects that comprise the First Year Action Pro-
$ram. Without this planning process there could be little
evaluation.
Evaluation is compriaed of the following elements:
1. Project Monitorin.g - This activity measures the progress of
each project's operation and compares this progress to the
project's plan. This element of evaluation is basically
concerned with pro�ect efficiency.
2.. Project Lnpact Evaluation - This element is aimed at deter-
mining whether or not che project accomplishes its objective.
This type of activity :is normally on in-depth study of the
project's results. Th:i.� will be done for only a few project�
during the First Action Year.
• Continuaus Planning and Evaluation � ^
�-57
3. A$gregate Core and Pro�ram Area Impact - This element of
evaluation focuses on measuring the changes that took
• place in a pragram area (such as education) and in the
core areas (such as social services). Once the aggregate
changes have been identified, analysis can be undertaken
as to the causes of these changes. During the First
Action Year, we wi11 focus on Assembling a comprehen�ive
set of baseline data for use in identifying aggregate
changes. It is not contemplated that we will be able
to pursue analysis.
4. Evaluation of Program Strategies - There are several
items that are included itt this element. Examples of
some of these activities include:
a. Ebaluation of the Model Cities organization and
operating procedures;
b. Ebaluation of citizen participation in the decision
making process;
c. Evaluation of institutional change in the operating
agencies so as to be more responsive to the needs of
• the people they serve; and
d. Coordination of services.
F`igure 1 illustrates the relationships among these elements of
evaluation.
Each of the above elements is addressed in this statement and the
relationships between each element and continuous planning identi-
fied; these elements will be more precisely defined by the evalua-
tion committee and staff during the next two months. The lack of
definition at this point is due to two major items.
1. There is no evaluation staff director or information spe-
cialist on pexmanent staff;
2. There has been minimal, ad hoc citizen involvement (a formal
committee will be organise� in th�e nea� f�twre).
• Continuous Planning and Ebaluation �
1Y;�3
B. Continuous Planning and Re-Planning
Model Cities is of its very nature a continuous planning proces�;
• residents are daily planning for their individual lives; MC ataff
is forever planning for a�ency cooperation, improving resident/
staff relations, and alleviating some (at least) of t}ae myriad
political barriers faced locally and nationally by all Model
Cities programs; and it must be remembered that HUD Regional and
Central are involved in maintaining and planning for the very
existence of the Model Cities Program in terms of Federal accep-
tability and funding.
But we are raost concerned, of course, with planning on the local
level; and in this respect time ia invariably the most crucial
aspect. Soon after submission of the CDP, localities are made
aware that the re-planning process is lurking in the not-too-
distant future. If carefully time-phased, and coordinated with
evaluation and monitoring, this process, which undoubtedly was a
frustrating experience during the initial planning year, could
prove to be a most effective cata].yst for real change in the
• Model Neighborhood. Re-planning will� in point of fact, cease
only when HUD is no longer funding Model Cities.
The re-planning process will be initiated in the winter, when the
resident task forces and staff will re-examine conditions, needs
and objectives of the St. Paul Model Cities Program. This pro-
cess should last twa months, allowing time for consideration of
each problem area of the Model Neighborhood. By this time, the
Model Cities Program should have received at least two monthly
reports from various projects as part of the CDA/IS. Thia feed-
back should provide a partial basis for rethinking of areas af
concern to the residents and possible revision of etrategies.
As part of the monthly reporting process, re�ident plannera will
submit monthly narrative reports to the manitoring and eveluation

committee on the projects most directly affecting their geographic
areas; in this way there will be continual "reports" from the
� r•esidents - those people with whom we are most concerned. Again,
at least two of these narrative reports will have been received
from those projects which are operational.
Mid-Planning S�atement
The cores, which would have been receiving several of the monthly
reports, and the evaluation and monitoring committee, which would
have been most directly involved in utilizing the infozmation from
the project monitoring system and data collection process� will
develop recomraendations for submission to the Model Neighborhood
Planning Council for its approval. As the MNPC approves of the
individual recommendations, the Model Cities staff will prepare
the Mid- ' Planning Statement for submission to HUD. When the
final Statement has been completed, the MNPC will again have the
opportunity to approve the up-date, this time viewing the entire
package. Subraission to the City Council and then to HUD will follow.
•
Second Year Action Plan
Core committees should begin to re-examine and select pro�ects
for inclusion in the Second Year Action Plan during the seventh
or eighth month of the First Action Year. Agencies submitting
new projects will be required to complete A project description
format, which will facilitate action by the task forces and
recommendations by the Model Cities staff. The format will be
loosely based on the Project Analysis Worksheet - a form included
in the CL1A/IS. Al1 operating agencies should include with their
proposals complete budget r�tatements, utilizing HUD formate; this
also will facilitate examii�ation by the Model Cities Program. As
proposals are received, a sy�tem of cataloguing and routing them

to appropriate staff inembers and Cores will insure thorough exam-
ination by those responsible for the particular problem areas.
• The procedure will be developed during the first part of the action
year. When the MNPC has selected projects for inclusion i� the
Second Year CDP, the staff aill prepare the Action Plan for sub-
mission to HUD. As with the Mid-Planning Statement, the com-
pleted Action Plan will be reviewed by the MNI'C and approved by
the City Council. It should be noted that the process of re-
planning for the Second Action Year should last five months�
allowing sufficient time for necessary re-writing of the CDP.
II. Evaluation Overview
A. Resident Involvement
As soon as possible upon submission of the First Year Action Plan
to HUll, an Evaluation and Monitoring Committee will be formed.
The committee will be made up as follows:
Chairman (of MNPC)
Vice Chairman (of MNPC)
• Nine (9) Representatives of Core Committees, including:
Six (6) members of the Model Neighborhood Plaru�ing Council
Three (3) residents, not members of the Council
Two (2) Representatives of operating agencies
Five (5) Advisory members such as:
State Urban Affairs Council
Municipal Information System
Business Community Representatives (3M, Control Data, etc.)
Metro Council
University of Minnesota
City Council Members
On1,Y MNPC members and residents will have voting ArlvileRes; all
others will act in an advisory capacity. In addition to the abooe,
membership will be open-ended as a means to encourage active par-
ticipation on the part of all residents. Those residents who are
Continuous Planning and Evaluation
• 1(,;,
absent for three consecutive meetings will lose voting privilegP�.
We truse that including representatives of operating agencies, bus-
• iness groups and the University of Minnesota wil]. provide data and
possible training of resident planners, as well as persons aware o#'
evaluation and decision-making on a broader spectrum.
The committee will receive monthly and quaxterly reports, and
make recommendations on changes in output measures or narrative
information to be submitted. It will also work with the Evalua-
tion Director in revising and up-dating baseline data and selec-
ting projects and "impact" questions for an in-depth study.
The staff of Resident Planners, whose functions entail primarily
community organization duties, will be used in monitoring pro-
jects. Up to 50� of their time will be devoted to monitoring
projects from the citizens' point of view. They will receive
traini.ng in programming, survey techniques, and other skills
which will be useful in evaluation and monitoring of the Model
Cities Program; funds have been included in the proposed budget
• for training purposes. We also anticipate that assistance will
be obtained from advisory members of the evaluation committee in
training the planners.
Whenever it is deemed necessary to conduct a survey for collection
of data, Model Neighborhood residents will be used as surveyors.
F�.�nds for stipends have been included in the proposed budget. Re-
sidents will work under the supervision of the Evaluation Director.
Resident planners will work under the supervision of the Commun-
ity Organization Director and in coordination with the Evaluation
Director.
B. State Involvement
The Minnesota State Plannir.g Agency and Urban Affaire Council are
Continuous Planning and Evaluation
163
•
interested in coordination of the three Minnesota Model Cities
Programs both in terms of common problems and data gathering
• and will be directly involved in the St. Paul evaluation pro-
cess. A representative of the Planning Office will �it in $n
advisory capacity on the Committee, and the Planning Office
staff will make recommendations for "impact" evaluation based
on their knowledge of the Duluth and Minneapolis Model Cities
Program. This agency will also be a convenient and suitable
vehicle for coordination of recommendationa among the three
prograrps, securing baseline data from various sstate agencies,
and possible reservations of state funds for the St. Paul Model
Neighborhood area.
C. Municipal Informat3on System
The city of St, Paul has received funds from Hud for the imple-
mentation of a Municipal Information System and is in ths pro-
� cess of so doing. We eacpect to cooperate with this newly cre-
ated department in receiving and providing data which vill be
useful in planning in the Model Cities Area. We have proposed
• that a representative of this department act as an advisory
member on the Evaluation Committee in order to maintain closer
contact. The Municipal Information System will provide a
source of baseline data that can be used to evaluate program
and project accomplishments.
D. Operating Agency Involvement
Thoae agencies operating Model Cities supplementally funded
pro�ects will participate in the pro�ect analysis phase of
the CDA/IS, and w�ll be reporting to the CDA on whatever basis
is determined prior to contracting. It ha� also been recom-
mended that representativee of two operating agencies be non-
voting members oP the Eva].uation Comrnittee; such membership
might be rotating, to permit participatian on the part af
..__�._,

the several agencies.
• Operating agencies, and those not funded through Mode1 Citieb
during the first action year will be asked to pravide ba8eline
data; project statu& reports (for projecte serving Model Cities
residents but not receiving supplemental funds), and other infor-
mation requisite to the planning and evaluation process.
III. Program Evaluation
A. StrateKSr
The intent of Program Evaluation is to test the assumptions
that were developed during the planning period. Specifically,
program level evaluation facuses on the amount of and reasonr�
for change in the core and problem areas. In addition, this
level of evaluation looks at the accomplishments of various
strategies, such as citizen participation, increa+ae in atate
and federal gran.t monies, and service coordination.
• There are several steps to conducting program level evaluation.
These steps include:
1. Refinement of core and program area objectives in
terms of identifying the variable that will be used
to measure achievement.
2. Identification of those progx�am strategies that will
be given in-depth evaluation. Figure III-A illustrates
the relationship to program strategies.
3. Identification of data needs for evaluation accnm-
plishments in core and program areas and of program
strategies.
4. Analysis of existing data and data sources.
5. Development of a pl.an to acquire required data.
6. �.ssessment of chan�e over time.

• B. First Year Activities
When the Evaluation Committee is operational, its initial task
will be the selection of impac� evaluation questions and areas
of concern which will be studied in-depth during tY�e first
action year. We would like to stress that we do not expect
revolutionary changes to occur during the first action year
of Model Cities; neither do we anticipate that the in-depth
evaluation of programmatic questions will affect decision
making to a considerable extent. However, it is imperative
that considerable thought be given to selections of impact
issues, as a means of clarifying the position and long-range
goals of St. Paul Model Cities.
In the Mid-Planning Statement and the Revisions of the Mid-
Planning Statement a number of ma�or problem areas were
identified; such a listing of areas of concern might be
• a basis for selection of impact questions. Examples of
impact questions are: a) Coordination of services and
institutional change; b) increased influx of federal
and state grant allocations to projects and pro�ams in
the Model Neighborhood; c) success of the citizen parti-
cipation structure as devised for St. Paul.
C. Baseline Data
After the CDP for the First Action Year has been submitted.
the Evaluation Director, together with the Evaluation and
Monitoring Committee, will re-examine the Mid-Planning State-
ment and the data which has been collected since the comple-
tion of that statement. Concurrently, the Pro�ect Anal.ysis
Continuous Planning and Eval.uation
• 1G7
phase of the CDA/IS implementation will be taking p1acF;
during this process, both data requisite to monitorine of
• projects and eources of other data will be mF�de known. Hc�w-
ever, Project Analysis shauld not be the sole source nf dat�
needs determination; other factors are: selection of impact
question and priority pro�ects, and evaluation plans for the
next five years.
Should it prove necessary to secure aertain kinds of information
about the Model Neighborhood Area, the Resident Planners (trainerl
in survey techniques) and other citi2ens of the area will be used
as collectors and compilers of data. Funds h�ve been inclucied iri
the proposed budget for this purpose. Upon the recommendation by
the Evaluation Director, consultants will be used for trair,inEr, of
Resident Planners in survey techniques, or for administrr�tin�
partibular surveys.
Although we shall attempt to have available for inclusi.on in the
Mid-Planning Statement a current, reliable set of baseline data,
� the collection and coordination of such data will be a continu-
ous process lasting the duration of each Action Year.
The desired result of the First Year's Pro�ram Evaluation acti-
vities is that a comprehensive set of baseline data will be
available for assessing program impact during the Second Action
Year.
IV. Project Evaluation
A. Criteria Evaluation
At the same time that the Evaluation Committee and MC staff are

selecting impact evaluation question�, they should �cl�ct bctween
three and five prior•ity projectb f'or in-de�>th evaluatiori. 'I'hc�
same criteria used for selection of projc�cts to be inr:luciec� i�� the
• CDP wi11 be used, with the following additional con..icic�ration:,:
1. In view of the fact that eifectivE: evaluation mu�t bc�
, based on adequate monitoring of the project�, the pro-
jects selected for in-depth evaluation should be those
which will be operational for a sufficient period oi' time
to provide feedback data.
2. Projects selected should relate to those problem�s �reas
defined as of particular concern to St. Paul. ( e.g. ;
If the area of employment is viewed as important, the Model
Neighborhood Dnployment Center Project mi�ht be selec-
ted for in-depth evaluation. )
In addition to the data collected via the Information System,
the Evaluation Director and the E valuation C ommittee wi.11
determine the most effective means foz• in-depth evaluating of
priority projects. Such evaluation might involve utili•r.ation
• of consultants or others with technical cap��bility in the parti-
cular area (housing, employment, etc. )
V. Project Monitoring
A. CDA/IS
The St. Paul Model Cities Program will monitor all supplE�mer�ti�lly
funded projects throughout the first action year. Yrojects wil.l
be monitored on the basis of' planned versus actual actiievc�ment in
terms of budgets, objectives, and content. An Tnf'orm�ztion Sy:�tem
will be designed and implemented, and will act as the mec}iariism
for the monitoring process.
The initial phase of implementing the Inf'oi-mation System is "Pro-
ject Analysis" (See Exhibit III-A). During this process� e3ch
project submitted to HUD for funding is analyzed in terms of'
---- -----___.._._
• Continuous Planning and �aluation
� l.f",s�
. objectives, elements (work packages), beneficiaries, output me�sures,
and narrative information selected for reporting purpose:�; Exhibit
• III-B is a sample Project Analysis Worksheet. Initially, ttze Model.
Cities staff and Core Committee represent�tives will rjnalyze the
projects; the operating agencies will be aksed to do the �ame; upon
completion of both analysis, there will be a reconciliation, if
deemed necessary. The information is thereupon transferred to a
Project Information Sheet, which serves as the basic document for
a listing of reporting information. This document might be atta-
ched as an addenda to and referenced in the Contract which was
drawn up between the Model Cities Agency and the operatin� �gency,
thereby "legalizing" the reporting system which will be required
of all agencies. Exhibit TII-C (1-7) is a sAmple "Agency Report-
ing Package" which St. Paul might utilize. Titles, descriptionc:,
and frequency of prototype reports are found in Exhibit IIT-D.
The Ebaluation Committee will recommend to the MNPC which reporte
will be submitted to the Cores and the full NIIdPC, for monitoring
• purposes. Distribution to the various staff inembers wi11 nlso be
determined at this time.
Reports received, and data collected will be included in the D�ta
File System to be set up as part of the Information System.
As a means of coordinating data collected from projects within
program areas, and in order to evaluate program areas, the st�f'f
will summarize certain data on a ''Program Area Summary Report"
each quarter. . °
Evaluation Director will be responsible for the Management Report
Package, to be designed by TRD consultarits in consort with Model
Cities staff and Core representatives.
As part of the nationwide contract for installation of the protatype
• Continuous Planning and E�raluation i--z--T '_�
1�c�
City Demonstration Agency Information System (CDA/7:;) , :�t. P;�u1
will receive technical assistance from Training, ker�e�rrh, and
• Uevelopment, Inc. TRD tias provided this assistdnccr in f'our•tec�n
first-round Model Cities in the Chicago re�ional rarea, and iE:
, in the process of providin� the same assistunce to fifteen
second-round cities in this region. Technical a;;si:�tance wi:l.l.
initiate shortly after the CDP has been submittF�d.
The Information System, which is viewed as servin�r a so:lely
"monitoring" function within the contest of an over��].] ev�lt�r�-
tion plan, actually can be utilized to provide a v�,riety oi'
data used in program-wide evaluation and deczsion-makinF;. In
this respect, for example, pre-determined narrative quest;i.on�;
of programs with concern can be used on the narrutive r•eport,
formats designed for use by the operating agencies and resi-
� dent planners. The evaluation committee should not be content,
however, with monitoring measures and nr�rrative questions
throughout the action year without at the samt time considerin�;
the validity and/or usefulness of the reportinP data. Uecisionc;
� made at the inception of the Information System implementation
should not be held sacred; indeed, there should be a cnntinual
evolution.
VI. Administrative Structure for Evaluation
It is anticipated that the Evaluation Director and Information
Specialist will be employed as soon as the Letter of Intent is
furnished. The Resident Planners are already on permanent �staff.
The Evaluation Director will be responsible for administration
and implementation of the evaluation plan and CDA/IS, and for
directing the efforts of the Evaluation and Monitoring Committee.
The Evaluation Uirector will make recommendations to the Committee
on baseline data to be collected and suggested sources of such
• Continuous Planning and Evaluation
]J1
dnta; he(she) will maintain liaison with operatin�r a�encies, ar,d
with organizations from whom assistance mi�ht be ��ined, and with
• whom contact should be mnde. The Evaluation .Uirector will de>vic;F�
a prototype Project Evaluation Pl�n for projects selected ars i.n-
depth priority projects; coordinate the efforts of con:sultani,e,
used for assistance in evaluation; and prepare a lon�r r�.�nge c�val.uFi-
tion strate�y for the five year funding period.
Directly responsible to the Evaluation virector, is the Informr�tion
�stem Specialist, whose principle tasks lie within the re�lm of'
the Information System. This specialist will tnAintain the vatF�
Files, assist in devising report formats based on the Prototypc
System, and assist the Evaluation Director in implementation of
of the CDA/IS.
There are six full-time Resident Planner positions. Fifty percent
of their time will be allocated for monitoring of projects oper-
ating in their districts. Their duties waulci for this �urpoFSe be
coordinated by the Evaluation Director; they will be responsible
• to the Community Organization Director as they are now.
The Community Organization llirector will be only indirectly ir.vo7.ved
in the evAluation and monitorin� process. The six Resident Ylanner��
wi11 remain responsible to him for purposes of overr�ll direction and
specifically in terms of their capacity as community organzzer.�.
The Deputy Director and three pro�ram area planners (physical,
social and economic) will be responsible for carrying out various
phases of the CDA/IS implementation process, including project
anal.ysis and developing "A�ency Report Packages" for the operating
agencies. Depending upon decisions made by the St. Paul ,�taff and
evaluation committee regarding reporting requirements, they may
also be responsible for completing various summary and ma.nagement

INTE�RIM RELOCATION PLAN
• Comprehens�ve City Demonstration Program
This interim plan ie beiag aubmitted as a part of the Compreheneive De-
monstration Program in lieu of a complete Relocation Plan, which xill be
transmitted within ninety (90) d�ys after HUD approval of the Coarprehen-
sive Development Plan.
(a) The CDA hereby acknowledges and adopts the baaic policiee and re-
=q�i�ements set forth in Handbools MC 316g.1 (CDA Letter No. 5, Re-
vised) regarding the relocation of individuals, families, busines�ee,
and nonprofit organization,e, xhich ma�y be displaced by the Model
Cities Progratn. Tn particular, this acknowledgement and adoption
includes Paragraphs 2 and 4 of MC 31bs.1 as followa:
2) Policies and Require�ents far Model Cities Relocation
(a) No family or individual will be displaced from ite residence
by a capita], pro�ect or activity included in the Nodel Cities
• Program until. that individual or family has chosen and has
acquired the present right to occupy suitable relocation
housing or has refused a reasanable choice of identified
�sui�able relocation houeing. If a family or individual is
offered and acc�pts suitable relocation houaing wh3ch xill
become available within one year from its displacement, it
may be teniporarily relocated into housing which meets the
standards for temporary relocatiott housing eet forth in
Paragraph 4 of MC 3165.1. If eviotion becomea necessary,
it will be carried out in accordance r+ith state and local
law and approved relocation standarda. Relocation housing
wi11 be listed for referral by the Hausing and Redevelop-
men� Authority's section as the designatar administrating
unit only when it: (1) ia available on a nondiscriminatory
basis; (2) meete the physical and accupancy �tandarde
defined in Paragraph �+ of MC 3165.1; and (3) ia within �he
Interim Relocation Plan �'
� 19�
financial mesns of the family or individual, al�o def3ned
in Paragraph 4.
• (b) Program displacemen� will not result in a permanent reduc-
tion in the supply of 1ow- and moderate-income houaing
within the city. Federally assisted low- and moderate-
income hou�ing currently programmed or under construction
will provide a substantial increase in the +supply of stan-
dard low- and moderate-income housing in the city. The
number oP units to be provided will be subatantially in
excess of the�gregate number of househalds displaced as
a result of the Pragram and other dieplaceroent activity in
the Pragram area (NDP Code Enforcement, etc.). Attached
at the end of this plan, is a table listing housing re-
sources which will become available through rehabilitation
and new construction during the next two years. Additional
sites for multi-family attd single-family housing in the
Model Neighborhood are presently under consideration and
will be identified in the subsequent submiasion of th8
complete 8elocation Plan. Because of the lead time involved
• in the conetruction or rehabilitation of housing, diaplace-
ment of individuals or families and th� start of rehabilita-
tion or new construction may not coincide. Hut those
displaced will have access to suitable relocation housing,
as required above, by the time of their displacement.
Ftiirthermare� tbe ph�vsical start of new constructien or rehab-
ilitation will be not more than one �ear behind the removal
... -
of units from the housin� market.
(c) Business concerns and nonprofit organizations diaplaced by
. projects or aativities included in the Program with service
and assistance to aid in their satisfactory reestablishment.
(d) The CDA will coordinate its Program to the maximum extent
feasible with other activities causing displacement in the
city to avoid competition for the same housing units.
Interim Reloc ation Plan
� �9�
(e) The Model Neighborhood citiz�n participation structure re-
quired by CDA I,etter No. 3 in the policy development� pl�unning,
• and execution phases of relocation, will be provided through
the creation of an MNPC Relocation Committee composed of 3
MNPC members, 2 residents of the Model Neighborhood, and a
member from a local internal agency heavily involved in
housing (sugge�tion: The St. P�u1. Urban League). Thie com-
mittee will be responsible for monitoring azr,d evaluaition of the
relocation program and for determining procedures for hand-
ling relocation grievance+s. The committee will review and
recommend propo�als for relocation and rehousing assistax►ce
to the MNPC Pbysical core, to the Executive Coromfttee� and
finally to the MNPC body.
(f) All families or individuals displ�ced by pro�ects or acti-
vities included in the Program wil,l be offered housing avail-
able on a nondiscriminatory basis within a broad choice of
I neighborhooda. In the implearentation of thi$ policy, the
CDA will avoid relocation housing pro�ects contributing to
• the development or perpetuation of housing patterns which
concentrate large segments of the population by racial or
economic oharacteristics. The Program is dir�cted towards
providing decent, safe, and sanitary low- and moderate-income
houeing both Withitt and outside the Model Neighborhood.
3) Organization for 8elocation Administration:
(1) Administration OrAanization of the Local A�encq
(a) The Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of St.
- Paul, Minneaota (HRA) will be the loca]. agency responeible
for administration and coordination of all relocation acti-
vitiea in the Model Neighborhood area.
The CDA hae not executed an agreement with the HI�N, pending
the determination of additional relocation aseistance to be
Interim Relocation P1.aa
• 193
provided by the CDA. Proposals for additional services
• and assistance which are adopted will be included in the
agreement and the executed agreement will be submitted
with the complete Relocation Plan.
(b) The St. Paul HRA is responsible for the provi$ion of re-
location assistance to all families and individuals dis-
placed as a result of any governmental activity, fir�s,
or other emergencies occurring in the City. The agency
is responsible for administering both the urban renewal
and public housing programs.
The relocation staff is included within the Community
Services Department of the agency. Also included under
Coromunity Services are social services staff for residents
of public houaing and community organization staff. Menr
bers of the three components provide advice and consulta-
tion as needed by other staff inembers of the department.
• The Director of Community Services reports directly to
the Executive Director of the agency. Attached is an or-
ganizational chart showing the structure of relocation
personnel at the present time.
(c) The Model Neighborhood is included in the Summit/Univer-
sity Neighborhood Development Program Area. The Model
Neighborhood Pl�►ruiing Council also serves as the Project
Area Committee for NDP. For a description of the acti-
vities of MNPC in NDP planning, refer to ND 50$, Citizen
Participation Report, and supplements thereto, Bubmitted
with the NDP application for the second year's program
(5/1/7� - �+/3�/71).
(d) Refer to Relocation Activity Report ND 507, of the second
year NDP submission for the informational process used to
• Interim Relocation Plan
_l.�)�+
provide continuous information to displacees. Reference
should also be made to ND 50$ for a de�cription of the
• Block Contact Program being carried out in the Madel Neigh-
borhood.
(2) Workload
Data on displacement-causin� pro�ects and activities has been
submitted for the period from Ma,y 1, 1970, to April 3c�, 19�1�
with the NDP second year application.
Revised data will be submitted documenting any additional die-
placement reeulting from the designation of any additional
housing sites now under consideration by the MNPC. This dnta
will be included in the complete CDA Relocation Ylan.
�3) Techniques for Providin�Relocation Assistance
• (a) Maximum opportunity for choice in total housing supply:
The Summit/University NDP area contains approximately 85%
of the non-white population of St. Paul. Since the str�rt
of relocation activity in July, 1g68, under an Early Acqui-
sition Program, 25� of the non-white displacees moved out-
side of the Suromit/University area. Also, better than a
third of the white displacees have remained in the Summit/
University .neighborhood. This would seem to indicate that
a trend toward deconcentration has begun to develop.
The selection of sites for the construction, acquisition
or leasing of low-income housing has resulted in a widely
separated distribution of this housing throughout the
community. The bulk of the HRA�s low-income units are
located outside the areas of greatest minority concen-
Interim Relocation Plan
• L<)',
trations. The assignment of these units, whether the,y are
located in family projects, elderly hi-rises, scattered
• single-family houses or leased unite, . has been a consis-
tently open-occupancy basis and has indeed resulted in the
integration af non-white families throughout the community.
Additional sites for the development of Feder�].ly assisted
moderate income housin� have been proposed for all resi-
dential NDP areas. The HRA has discussed the need for this
housing with the Project Area Committee in each of the areas
and has received their support for this type of development.
The HI2A has provided information and guidan.ce to a number
of community groups in and outside the NDP project areas
in an effort to promote the development of additional low-
and moderate-income housing throughout the community.
Although there has been a great deal of community interest
• in various housing programs, it is difficult to maintain a
high level of activity in the face of the critical shortage
of Federal fuuds to support the needed volume of construc-
tion and rehabilitation activity.
The State of Minnesota and the City of St. Paul have enact�d
fair housing legislation which ranks among the most progres-
sive in the nation. The City's Department of Human Rights
has worked diligently to enforce the City's ordinance rind
has developed an effective information program which the HRA
has helped to disseminate.
(b) Assistance to business concerna and non-profit corporations:
See sections cited above for staffing. Additional assistance
will be proposed to enable displaced business concerns to
Interim Relocation Plan
� � 7���f;
remain in the Model Neighborhood and to enhance their
operations.
•
(c) Additional Relocation Assistance:
An amount of $50,000 is proposed to provide funding for
additional relocation services and assistance. Among
these are proposals for psyment of excesa moving expen�es,
legal assistance, homemaker and home maintenance counsel-
ing and services, transitional housing, interim emergency
repair loans, and employment of reesidents in the reloca-
tion process as relocation and maintenance aides under
career development programs.
4) Relocation Housing and Ability-to-pay Standards:
The CDA has adopted basic housing standards in conformity with the
local housing code to be applied as criteria for determining whether
a residence constitutes suitable relocation housing. These standards
• are the same as those which are used as the basic elements of housing
standards in the urban renewal program.
Temporary relocation into housing meeting these basic housing stan-
dards will be provided for a period of up to twelve months if relo-
cation to perman.ent housing meeting these standaxds is not posaible
at the time the move is required to be made and if such permanent
hausing is scheduled to become available within one year. Use of
temporary relocation housing will normally be limited to displacees
waiting to return to rehabilitated or to enter newly constructed
housing.
Permanent relocation housing will be located in n�ighborhoods con-
taining adequate commercial a:r�d comntunity facilities. Permanent
relocation housing shall not be in a neighborhood slated for
Interim Relocation Plan
� Lc�7
clearance in the near future, or in a neighborhood characterized
• by significant environmental deficienciee if these cand�tions are
not being remedied, or are not scheduled to be remedied in the
immediate future, by appropriate governmental or private action.
Displacees will not be offered a choice of relocation housing for
which they are expected to pay more than 25 percent of their annual
gross income for rent and utilities, excluding telephone service.
For this purpose, gross income is defined as total family incomc
excluding all income of minors and minus �300 for each minor.
Neither the exclusion nor the �300 exemption applies to a minor
spouse.
(b) Relocation P�vments
All eligible recipients of relocation p�yments as defined in
Paragraph 6 of MC 3165.1, will receive no less than the urban
renewal relocation pa�yments provides for, at the time such �
• pa�yments are approved, by section 114 of the Housing Act of
1949 with respect to projects assisted under Title I thereof.
If the displacement is caused by a Model Cities project or
activity for which there is no specific provision for relo-
cation p�yments, the CDA will make relocation payments equal
to and not in excess of the level of relocation payments
authorized for urban renewal relocation.

RESIDENT EMPIAYMENT STATF�NT
• Polic :
��
This policy recognizes that the Model Neighborhood does not have r� lot
of residents who possess a vast array of professional or other vocatiorial
training and experience. However, this policy assumes that posi.tions
created by Model Cities projects or programs will be open to Any Model
Neighborhood resident who is trainable either unemployed or underem-
ployed. Therefore, to develop maximum employment opportunities for
Model Neighborhood residents in Model Cities projects is one of the most
important ob�ectives of the Model Neighborhood Planning Council. By
providing new and better job opportunities as "spin-offs" of Model Cities
projects and through realistic training programs that relate to the pre-
sent and future labor market needs, the St. Paul Model Cities program
can then use this approach as the first step of a series of steps in
expanding and building a new economic base for the Hodel Neighborhood.
• Projects aimed at job training, placement, education, or other such pro-
grams facilitating the employment or employability of Model Neighborhood
residents will receive special critical attention in pro�ect monitoring
and eva.luation. Model Cities will require those projects or agencies
receiving Model Cities funds to give Model Cities residents first
priority in all hiring.
In addition, Model Cities will actively pursue firm application of the
1964 Civil Rights Act with all prospective employers in the City of St.
Paul, which summarily reads as follows: ". . . . in conformance with
the genera7. purpose of selecting the most qualified employees, ar�y dis-
crimination in the recruitment, selection, employment, placement, pro-
motion, training, assignment� aeparation, or any other personnel action
shall be prohibited. Discrimination shall include ar�y consideration of
race, creed, sex, color, or national origin as an element in the
• Resident Employment Statement
��cij,
determination of any of the abone decisions."
• This policy of maximum resident employment in Model Cities projects i�
understood and accepted by the mayor�and city commission, Model Neigh-
borhood Planning Council, and prospective sponsoring agencies which wi.11
operate the programs.
Model Cities will actively coordinate, solicit from other sources, and
whenever possible provide supportive services such as health services,
day care services, etc. for employed Model Neighborhood residents there-
by assisting them in retaining employment.
Enforcement:
The mayor and Model Neighborhood Planning Council has charged the CDA
with full responsibility for implementing the resident employment policy
within HUD guidelines. The CDA Director and Model Neighborhood Planning
Council will review all projects to make sure there is comglete corapliance.
• In addition, the Model Neighborhood Planning Council will have contract
responsibilities to review and eval.uate on all pro3ects. The review will
deterarine if all contractors are in complete compliance. Deviation from
the policy will be discussed with the operating agencie� to take undo
consideration before appropriate action is taken. "Appropriate actinn"
is interpreted as further contract review, contract compliance or non-
renewal. In serious cases, the r�view could lead to contract terrnination.
Recruitment:
The Model Cities Program and agencies contracted to operate or administer
Model Cities projects must seek to attract a maximum number of applica-
tions from Model Neighborhood residents for employment in Model Cities
programs and pro�ects. The Model Neighborhood Planning Council will have
aontract responsibilities for dissemina.ting �ob information on available

positions, duties to be per�ormed, salary range, speciaJ. qualifications,
• training to be made available and how, when and where applications can
be submitted to the various agencies. The Hodel Neighborhood Planning
Council will use all available media including daily newspapers, posters,
flyers, radio, television, and work-or-mouth in neighborhood or�anizin�
activities.
Trainin�:
Delegate agency contracts will provide, wherever possibl.e, that eupervi-
sion and training of Model Neighborhood residents will be vigorous, re-
sourceful and considerate. It will seek to motivate and inform. Training
policy will provide Model Neighborhood res�idents with on the job training
so that such residents will come to the realization that they have access
to the full range of promotional opportunities.

SUMMARY DESCxIPTION OF THE PLAN
• The St. Paul Model Cities First Year Comprehensive Development Plar�
has been developed as a desi�n for a coordinated attack on the basic
problems and their underlyin� causes affecting the Summit-University
area. The Model Neighborhood, often referred to as the Summit-Univer-
sity area is an inner-city neighborhood approximately 1000 acres in
size and the home of nearly 27,000 St. Paul citizens. The Area Map
depicts the boundaries and land use features of the Model Neighborhood
(See Appendix I). The Location Map illustrates the location of the
Model Neighborhood in the St. Paul Metropolitan Area (See Appendix II).
While the implementation of the plan will direct its impact on the
Model Neighborhood and its 27,000 residents, it will also benefit the
larger community by demonstrating the workability of neighborhood
citizen involvement in the actual planning and implementation process
for developing an improved environment for the people. The effective
e3cperimentation in some projects such as: the neighborhood business
development, the special resources for teaehing, the rapid advance of
educational capabilities, and a mobile health unit for area schools,
• could provide the basis for application to all areas of St. Paul.
The thrust of the Model Cities Program First Year Comprehensive
Development is directed toward improvement of the economic and social
foundations of the Model Neighborhood with activities of the St. Paul
Housin� and Redevelopment Authority under the Neighborhood Development
Programs Years #1 and #2, providing the base for renewal of the
physical environment. While the activities under these HRA programs
coordinate with and compliment our program, an.y extensive use of
Model Cities Supplemental Funds for physical projects is not required
during this first year.
The Planning Process
2'he Model Neighborhood Planning Coi�ncil, an elected 30 member council
� Swnmary Description of the Plan `
2C)G
representing the Model Neighborhood has strived for widespread citizen
participation in the planning o:f this program. The Model Neighborhood
• Planning Council organized three planning cores, Economic, Social and
Physical, and within the cores ten taskforces for the purpose of studying,
identifying and analyzing neighborhood problems.
As each core and taskforce conducted an extended series of regular
working meetings that were publicized in the Model Neighborhood, a large
number of neighborhood residents, representing a good cross section of
the community were involved in this aspect of the planning process.
Representatives of agencies from the neighborhood and agencies and
departments from the lar�er St. Paul community participated and were
welcomed as resource people.
The ideas and directions evolved by the cores, taskforces and committee�
were developed and translated into specific action projects by the Model
Cities Pro�ram Staff. The staff was assisted, particularly in the pro-
ject planning phase, by various consultants and by representatives of
the various agencies, departments and institutiona having a role in the
• Model Neighborhood,
Nei�hborhood Conditions
The planning groups in the course of studying, identifying and analyzing
nei�hborhood problems found the Model Neighborhood to be seriously af-
fected by a lack of adequate and relevant educational opportunities,
hi�h unemployment and underemployment, a lack of resident ownership of
housin� and business, extensive physical deterioration of private build-
ings and public facilities, inadequate health care, a disproportionately
high rate of recorded crimes a�ainst property and persons, poor police
community relations arid a lack of recreational and cultural programs
for residents. These and other problems were revealed to be interwoven
with each other in a complex patteru.
� Swmnary Description of the Plan
2C��
However five ba$ic causes evolved out of this complex pattern and were
identified as directly or indirectly underlying all the problem area�.
• They are:
1. Inadequate education
2. Insufficient income (unemployment and underemployment)
3. Discrimination (racial, economic, sexual and geo�raphic)
4. Governmental and institutional neglect (inadequate delivery
of public and private services)
5. Ineffective Model Neighborhood resident involvement in public
policy and decision making.
Strategy
In order to achieve ob�ectives relating ta a reduction and elimina�ion
of the priority problems, strategies will be employed that aim directly
at the underlying causes.
During the First Action Year Program, approaches will be employed that
seek to:
• 1. Raise the educational level of the Model Neighborhood residents
to effectively compete for employment at all levels of the job
market, for further education both vocationally and profession-
ally, and for knowiedge to assume authoritative leadership
responsibility in all areas of the Model Cities program.
2. Increase the employability of unemployed and underemployed
Model Neighborhood residents through creation of a strong
economic base by the development of a broad spectrum of local
business enterprises, job training, basic job counseling and
education, transportation services, and the �stablishment of
new criteria for hiring r�sidents.
3. Attack discriminatory practices in business ventures, hiring,
and lending policies, and achieve a level of Insti�utional
change in education and teaching practices to eliminate harm-
ful racial, sexual, geogr�phic and cultural attitudes.
� Summary Description af the Plan
�?��$
4. Make governmentiAl and institutional a�encies more refiponsive
to the needs of Model Neighborhood residents throu�h use of
• supplemental funds for programs that most effectively change
the basic social, economic. and physical problems of the area
in addition to improving communication, with emphasis on local
agencies.
5. Increase citizen participation by involving the Model Neigh-
borhood residents on boards, councils, and committees of
agencies; and groups conducting pro�ects and programs that
affect the Model Neighborhood area, to include public policy
development with special emphasis on the Model Cities program
in the planning and development of programs in particular.
Supplemental funds will also be used to implement projects that will have
an immediate and highly visib.le irni,act upon the area so as to establish
the confidence of the Model Neighborhood residents. Tt must be shown
that something can be done, because the area has too long been in the
planning process with no visible results.
i
In a number of situations, pro�ect operation will be contracted to exist-
ing public agencies which have the capability of efficiently carrying out
the project while bringin� about crucial institutional changes. The
services of existing private agencies, particularly those operative
within the Model Neighborhood, will be used for operation of some of the
projects. This will develop competence within the community and will tend
to bring the organizations and groups within the neighborhood together.
All project contracts will require that the administering agencies
assure maximum employment and reali.stic training of Mode1 Neighborhood
residents.
Through improving the quality of life in the Model Neighborhood, we
hope to lay a foundation for a comn:unity that is diverse economically,

• Action Projects �
Fourteen action projects have been designed to implement the first year
strategy and achieve planning objectives.
The following key action pro�ects illustrate the approach that the
program is taking.
Community Health Program - Provides a comprehensive medical and denta�.
facility, including a mobile health unit.
Model Neighborhood Ilnployment Center - Offers counseling, job placement,
b.asic education, vocational training, and other services.
Oxford-Selby Recreation Training Pro�ram - Establishes a training pro-
gram for recreational leadership in the entire Model Neighborhood area.
• Local Development CompanY - Provides technical assistance and obtains
funding for revitalizing existing businesses and developin� new
businesses in the Model Neighborhood Description.
Police Community Relations Proiect - Establishes a training program for
a group of minority residents which will qualify them for work with the
St. Paul Police Department in the Model Neighborhood.
Consultant Housing Study - Studies the neighborhood housing situation,
considers all feasible alternatives and develops a housing plan which
is crucial to many dimensions of the neighborhood renewal. Professional
consultants would be contracted for this purpose.
Supportive Educational Pro_j�ect - Supplements present public school

schools.
Child Development Pro�ect - Provides pre-school educatiional opportunity
on a broad scale in the Model Neighborhood. Simultaneously �rovi.des �iay
care services for mothers who are workin� or bein� trained.
Projected total funding of this first year program is $4,46�>,OC�U from
all sources. The federal supplemental funds grant 1'rom IiUll wi:Ll provide
$2,950,000. The city of St. Paul will contribute approximately $1,'S,00C1
for program administration.
Emphasis on economic renewal and social development is il_lustrntecl by
the fact that $�26,000 in supplemental funds, or 31�, will be dcvoted
to employment and business development projects and $1,4��,ODU, or 629b,
in Supplemental Funds will be devoted to health, education, and othFr
socially oriented projects. Certain projects relatin�; to the physical
• development of the neighborhood will be carried out under Model Cities
sponsorship. They will use $159,000, or 790 of Supplemental F�nd�. The
objectives which relate to physical projects will in the main be carried
out with funds provided by the Neighborhood Development Programs under
the St. Paul Housing and Redevelopment Authorit,y.
As the planned projects become operational, all projects will be con-
tinuously monitored to assure that the services provided for in the
project contracts are being furnished. The Evaluation and Monitorin�
Committee made up of Model Nei�;hborhood residents and others will �;elect
priority projects or component part.s of the program for evaluation or
in-depth analysis by our staff ar�d by consultants. This is a funda-
mental part of this program, as it is through tools such as monitoring
and evaluation that the "model" or "demonstration" aspeci:s of the
pro�ram are focused upon.
