PAUL INTER-OFFICE COMMUNICATION October 2, 1969 Honorable Robert F. Peterson Comnissioner of Public Works Department Dear Comnissioner Peterson: We recommend that the lease between the Great Northern Railroad and the City of St. Paul providing free parking in the Kellogg Blvd. and John St. parking lot be terminated as per the attacMed resolution for the following reasons: 1 . It has been the policy of the city to avoid becoming in- volved in any planned parking program. 2. The Public Works Department must pay the following approxi- mate annual charges on the lot. a. Insurance - $600.00. b. Lease fee - $75.00. c. Surface maintenance - $500.00. d. Plowing - $1 ,000.00. e. Post and sign installation and maintenance - $300.00. The above costs would be far greater except that a very minimum amount of maintenance is being done by the department since there is no income from the lot. Yours very truly --..... � �� Robert G. Peterson City Traffic Engineer RGP:bjh . � . � ��7� , . , We the undersigned, petition that you, the Nlayor of St. Paul and the St. Paul City Council rescind your decision to dis- continue �intenance of the publ,ic lot at the foot of the Kell.o�g B1vd. or 3rd St. viaduct.
