Dalglish � , ` ` FROM: J,• WiLliam Donovan ' - ° � . � DATE: Me,Y 9, 1966 , � • " SUBJECT: Improving Annapoli s St. f`rom Ottawa Ave. to Oakda.le Ave. � Hearin� - May 10, 1966 � ' The above described improvement is a �oint pro�ect involving the Min� nesota Highway Department, the County of Ramsey, the County of Dakota, the City of West St. Paul, and the City of St. Paul. • � � This improvement basically consists of the widening and resurfaci.ng '� of Annapolis Street f�om Ottawa to Oakdale �lvenue and involves the re- moval and replacement of existing curbing, and the construction of ' � sidewalk, driveways, and water �nd sewer connections, aL1 where neces- sary. The present roa.dway has a width of 30 feet, and it is pxoposed , ' , � to widen the roa.dway to a 40-foot width and thus meet State Aid re- � " quirements. The new back slopes and boulevard axeas will be gra,d.ed . and sodded by,the contractor as part of his contract. ` � ' The estimated costs of the proposed work are as follows: ' � � Grading and paving (12' wide strip) $16.54 lin. ft. • Curbing ' , 2.05 lin. ft. , � � Sidewalk � .60 sq. ft. � Driveways - Res. � - 6.50 sq. yd., Co�ercial 7.50 sq. yd. .

The recommended assessment rates for ' • curbing and paving construction are nominal in cvmparison with their es- timated costs and are comparable to assessment rates applied to similar • � - type improvements in this area and throughout the City. . < • The existing curbing and pavement was constructed in 1g24. The exist- • ing curbing varies in its condition, being good in some places and •' poor in others. Insofar as the present curbing is 4� years old, it is � recommended that the new curbing be assessed at the rate of �1.00 per � . foot. - There is one basic difference between this improvement and most other , � • , paving projects of this type. Annapolis, being a border street, also � , abuts the City of West St. Pau1; and i�"appears that the City of West� � St. Paul does not intend to assess benefits and will finance their � . entire share of this project from available funds. It ha.s been recom- ' �• - mended that the City of St. Paul assess a small portion of the cost against the benefited properties in� order to be consistent with es- � tablished policies and procedures followed in assessing benefits for like improvements in other areas of th� City. The application of the . hexetofore reco�nended assessment rates wi11 result in a total assess- , ment of approxi.mately $23,155.88, which is approximately 16�0 of the total � � City share of the cost� which. 3s now estimated to be $1�+3,613•39• . . . , � �__J . �, .. . • jt � `. � . ," . . . .

J f y. � � � � . a ��-6 . � May 8, 1966 Mayor George Vavoulis City Hall � St. Paul, Minnesota Dear Mayor Vavoulis ; I am writing this to protest most vehemently the assessment that is being made on the property owners , that live on the St, Paul side of Annapolis Street, This �,ssessment is for the widening, regrading and resurfacing of Annapolis Street, I� the past two years we have been assessed f or new sidewalks�a new storm sewer and now this. It is difficult for me to express how discouraging , I think this whole process of assessing and reassessing property owners f or every improvement the city thinks is necessary„ The widening of Annapolis Street i s not a necessity as far as the property owners are concerned, This street has already been improved about three tj.mes in the past fifty years, Just because the city cannot plan far enough ahead, to make their improvements more far reaching, I do not think it should fal.l upon the property owners to keep paying for these short term improvements� Annai�polis Street is a very satisfactory street as far as the residents are concerned. If� the street doesnrt mcet with the approval of the city planners or whoever it is that is not happy with it-then it should be the responsibility of the city to pay for its Enclosed, you will find clippings, that show that W�st St. Paul has no intention of assessing the property owners on their side of Annapolis . If it is possible for that City to be fair and absorb the costs themselves� why in the name of heaven, cantt St„ Paul. My husband and I cannot aff ord to take off from work to attend the Council meeting, but I am trusting you to record my very strong protest to this assessment on thE widening of Annapolis Street, I am sending copies of this letter to each of the Council members� and hope that they too will give voice to my protest. yours very truly� , Mr, and Mrs. Frank Sadowski 14�7 E� Annapolis Street ��Ej�� " St� Paul, �Iinnesota ni�+'i' pwuL, t�:tNN, �ry '�AY`)R'� +DFFIt'�- ��,� ^�nY s - i966 �� i��a��9 � , A. l �/ �� 22�� , � � � � � � S� `�ou,�Q, -c,�, .5''� ll S� � �, l � � �O , �� F r�/�.,,� r I /�1 ,• J lN/ 1 ° ' � U � I � �wQ� `' o f � , 1 r `�� J ��, �V �C_�'_ """ �V t � �v, � �— � , � ' P �l.Ci��^' �/ 1 d�0`�� "�-� +/��r v�"�-'�" . � v�/1 �/ '"" �'� ' . r � ��C� ° ' ` V ' 1 f �� , . � > ,�, �, � 'c� , .�� 1,�1.�� -�,�.cQ�.. � , � �,�� .� �� 'wl� � � , ��-,e , , � � ` � � � � -�� v � � ^ , �?� � � , 0��-Y�-�-`. z � � , _ �c��' , `� � �� /}'�-� �t-�—� � � � � � �� } �1/�. r � , . _. . � . � �c,�� . . .�'�iE�. �.�, � �, �� n t � , f �J r � � �� .� - I�LT�� -•�."-�C�-k.lC^, . v�� .�� / \r-�Z1.1'-� �� ' �� Q ,�, ��'�� p�� , ��lL � �"_'"I q ! . � l,�tf—L� ��f��/�ti . ��, a , � � � � � � ; .�� - � � � ` , '� z � � �r� � e�� .� 2 � _. • -�� , .�� r, � � , r� �(J� ��'' l��-��'� �J �-��. �l, �l, ��.� ' � Z' � . . � �� ' � �, / � /� �� . `L/ 0 I 1 �� l ,�.,�/ N'�.��~C��,X�l..�/ �� !I�(�`"`.�,�'�''. �.1/1..�, � r 1 �/ �f • , `L�,f/L.�� ` �/I��`7 ,k' �( �� --�j� ��i�� -��.� �� C�..��2-�1 �.
