Butler Cornrnissioner of Finance . Q Department of Finance �� �7��v City of 5t Paul 113 Court House St Paul MN 55102 Dear Mrs. Bntler: Reference your letter, co�y of which is attached. As a member of the Armed Forces of the United States, currently ser�ing in Ohio on active dut�, it will be impossible for me to attend the public hearing cited on the �nclosure. Therefore, I am asking that this letter be forwarded to individuals or groups conducting the hearing so that its content can be entered in the official deliberatio�s Qf the cov.ncil during the hearing. As the owaer of a sigaificar�t portion of the property involved in extending Clarence Street to Beech, I am opposed to this proposal without reservatimn, Such action, in my opinion, is una*arranted for the following reasona: 1. Clarence Straet very abruptly ends at Beech Street, and its extension for what amounts to 2 bl@ck could serve no essential purpose to anyoae. 2. Individuals living on Beech 5treet have axcellent meana of egress and ingresa by use of that street. While it may be elaimed that e�ension of Clarence Stre�t would make travel more convenient, then certainly the complete:extgnsion of Clarence Street south beyond Beeeh would, for some, �ak� things even more convenient. I do not believe that in theae times of "tight money", poverty, hunger, diseaee, and poor housing, that the city and a selected few property ownera should expend the aum of over $10 thouaand merely for the convenience of one or two families. Certainly, these funds could be better spent in feeding the poor and providing better housing for those who want it. 3. Extension of Clarence Street wc�uld create a significant and serious traffic hazard at the intersection of Clarence and Minnehaha, since many drunk, reckless and irresponsible motor vehicle operators would neglect stopping before crossing Minnehaha as they raeed on Clarence Street. The noise, distraction, and increased traffic of criminal elemeats would seriously disturb the tranquility of the neighbs�rhood, and eause the residents great concern for the safety of their persons and prop�rty. 4. Personally, I object to arbitrary condemnation proceedinga of big city governrnent when such action will practically isolate the rear entrance and yard of my property, and make future construc- tion of a garage extremely costly. In addition, the proposed action would probably necessitate the construction of retaining walls to confine zny property. These added expenses, inconveniences, plus the asaeasment, are absolutely indefensible when, after completion of thc atreet extension, property valuas will decline. I purchased this property for use of my retired and aging mother specifically because of the quiet and relative isolation afforded by Clarence 5treet, between Beech and Minnehaha Avenue, as it exists today, � Reapectfully submitted, ��p,��.

Butler Comxnissioner of Finance Department of Fina.nce City of St Paul 113 Court House St Paul MN 55102 Dear Mrs. Butlers Reference yeur letter, copy of which is attached. As a rnember of the Armed Forces of the United States, currently serving in Ohio on active duty, it will be imposaible for me to attend the public hearing cited on the enclosur�. Therefore, I am asking that this letter be forwarded to individuals or groups con- ducting the hearing, so that its content can be� entered in the official deliberations of the c0uncil during the hearing. As the owner of a significant portion of the praperty involved in grading and surfacing the alley, Block 1, Magler's Subdivision, and Block 1, Wallblom'a Addition, from Clarenee Street to Etna _ Street, I am opposed to this proposal witho�t resservation. 5uch action, in my opinion, is unwarranted for the following reasons: 1. Proposed grading would require rexnoval of a portion of my property, require removal of a chain-link fence and its subse- quent erection, and ,jeopardize the health and well-being of trees now growing on my propertyj and for all this, I would be required to pay the surn of $4, 68 per asaessable foot. 2. Sueh relocation of soil would deny vehicle access to the rear of my property from th� alley, since construction of an adequate approach would s�riously compromise the alley surface and possibly its width, . . . . � 3. I piarchased this property because of its present siting and access facilities. Beech Street residents purchased their property as it exiats this date. I can see no reason why demanda to improve the alley should negate or void equally firm demands of property own�ra who desire roads and alleys as they were at the time the land was purchased.
