Sir: - Aeaessmente: Pierce Butler Route -• As property owners residing on thie route, we are concerned ov�er�the proposed asaesement for the building of this thorough- fare. Had the work that hae been done been a normal atreet im- provement, the reaidente, I am sure, would expect to aesuma a coat of the improvement. In thie inatance, the etreet, which was • adequate for the needa oP the area, was replaced by thie heavy truck route. We actually derive no benefit Prom the change. In fact we are inconveniencied in that we ere prohibited from parking in Pront of, or near our homee. The conetruction oP thie truck route as stated "to relieve Univeraity Avenue of' lheavy truck traf'fic" hae actually eegregated the reeidents of our area (Avon to Grotto). We are no longer a part of the community, but isolated between the truck route and the railroad tracka. No coneideration was giv en to the reeidents prior to the building of this highway. We cannot undo what has been done, but we do wish to go on record as etrenuously objecting to any aeaesement for coeta of this highway. It is reasonable to expect that in a city the size of St. Paul, and with its departmental organization, a project o� this eize would never be undertaken without aesurance of ample funds for its con- etruction coets. Should thie coat not be aeaumed by all of the tax payere, eince it is a suppoeed improvement for the city? � The residente of the area would be moet grateful for your con- eideration of their intereste when thie matter comee before the City Council on February 24th. Z�ank you. Respectfully, . � �.��. �� Eet,her M. Rein e (Mrs. Lloyd E. ) - � .e�. �.��.�� Llo 'E Reineke ELTO.R A. DEHN, - 224-46�2 •1—�airation Engineer �.

CROWLEY, 2B6 City Hall Valuation Technician Saint Paul, Minnesota b5102 `�� February 23, 1965 Commissioner James J. Dalglish Depaxtment of.Finance . Building . Dear Sir: The matter of confirming the assessment for improving the Northern Route, now kno�n as P�ierce Butler Route, vas laid over to February 21�, 1965, With the uriderstanding tha.t representatives of the �ublic Works Department and the Finance :Department �would meet with the various property otianers ob,jecting, in the Co�nty Board Room on February 10. _ - The principal ob,jections to the assessment followed the same lines as those filed in connection with the improving of Otto Ave- nue and relate to the parking ban and the increased traffic ress�7.t- ing from the highway construction in what was primarily a resi- dential area. Vaxious rezonings have been granted by the Council. to permit industrial or ��C�� residential usage of lands abutting this imprcroement, a�d we_believe that the vacant lands remaining which are zoned for nA� or ��B�+ residential use will be rezoned before they are developed. The present rates for ��Cn residential aad commercial pro- perties are �7.91� to �11.16 pex foot, dependent upon the type of paving and curbing installed and the location of the property with reference to the ornamental lighting where a differential was established because the lights were constructed on the northerly edge of the roadway. We believe that the assessment against these properties is fully ,justified. The problem still remains as to those proper�ties which were already developed for residential purposes prior to the roadway construction. Ovr present assessment roll results in rates total- ing �1�.75 or �5.00 per foot for these properties and includes an assessment for lights at the rate of ��.75 or �1.00 per foot, de- pendiag upon which side of the street, the property is located. The Otto Avenue assessment was finalized at �3•50 per foot for residential properties, and it is our feeling that becanse of the lighting improvement, a rate slightly higher is ,justified and are suggesting a final rate of �4.00 per foot. This would result in a reduction of approximately �1,600 to the reSidential proper- ties aad would make the net assessment comparable to the Otto �ve- nue pro�ject. . � •-.� � � G � February 23, 1965 rf you �,pprove, we would recommend that the Council direct that we re-extend the assessment roll in line with the above recom- mendations �nd that the matter be laid over to March 2l�, 1965, with notices only to those owners whose assessment is reduced.
