� To the Council Of the City of St. Paul, concernin�g the
reconstruction of the aidewall� on �ilton St.
i
i
i I am 11Qrs. Mich�,e1 T. Hoxmeier and I am the owne� of �
'
a reaidence on A�4ilton St. , that is 25 �`orth �ilton St.
On September 4th of last year, 1963, I atarted the
, �
petition under adviaement, this morning, here at the C�urt Hou�e,
for a new sidevaall� to be con�tructed by our City, in front
` of my regidence� and also extending from Summit Avenue to
! �
� Selby Ave. The preliminary order, I notice, ha,s included �
;
�
� both aides o� �ilton St. I � pereonally� called on all the ow ers
on my �ide of �ilton St. whom I could meet and got a numbei
� of si�atures of those who agreed vaith me that a new aidewalt�
was advisable, nay even a necessity. Ddy immediate neigbore,l owne8 ef
' the houae at Summit and Milton, signed in the person of thlir
agent, �r. �ielvin Vollhaber . �dy tenanta, Mr. and DBr�. Euglne
Langan, at 25 North �dilton St. , signed the petition. Our
neighbor on Laurel, P�rs. Donald �l�on, Laurel and �ilton �t.
and our neighbor on Hague,�rs. Gertrude E. Smtih were glad to
sign and are, hoping and praying for a new sidewal4�. I had everal
r t he dru s t+O re '
other eignatures, Mr� . Romane�y, on Hague nea g �
and �r. Welch, pharmacist at the drug 9tore on �elby, as w�e11 as
�drs. Smtth who live� in the apartment between Laurel and iehland
and �after I had filed the petition � another hous�l��s��.��{ZO �Ii1ton�
came to our door and offered to �ign.
I must adrnit that my particular aidewal� and my
blocK sidewall�i� the �rorst of the 1ot. I thin4� it must h ve
,
1
been 1a�t yeare �torm, a� we11 as the many bi�3 trees on the
boulevard, that have puehed it up in so mar�y places. Anywly, I admit
tlz�:t it certainly is rocE�y.

�
Personally, I am going to be plea.sed and happy to p y
� the a�ses�ment which is only three dollars and twentyyfive ce ts
! (�3. 25) per lineal foot, for a standard �idewall� of five feet in
I width. I thn{� it wi11 be a bargain to have a new aidewalk�at hat
� rate� and 1 thint� that al1 the residenczrs on �ilton e�reet
r wi11 be more that happy with the res�ult. Thin4� of the
,
� advanta�e it will be to pedeatriana to have a new� smooth�.wa1
� and for how mar�y year� this improvement wi11 be en�oyed by he
{
frienda on the street and oin fact� by, the general publlc.
� There �re aeveral rough apots a11 along �ilton St.
Especially ia thie true at the corner of Hague and �ilton wh re
the curbe are badly broKen andifrom the corner houses to the
� street! it is even dangeroue. Near the drugstore there are onl
� or two bad 9pots and in front of the a�artment house� and th�
�eat �one thP ��dewall� is brol�en and uneven. I have wal�ed a�7.ong
� this w ay, often, and feel that it would be pesitively selfi�ah
to be� to have my own property improved and not to include tihe
other b1oc4�e, five of them, that is from Summit to Selby� o I �ilf2on.
The new walt� constructed by the City acrosa the etreet,
� along side of Peace High School, ie sucb� marE�ed improvement in
the neighborhood that one ia temped to crosa the street ,jus�t to walk
on it. It seema topbad that the other aide, that i� the wes�t side
of the �t reet, especially f rom 5ummit to Portland, should ot be
equally improved. For the fu�u�e of a11 of ua , for the etu ents
at Lady of Peace riigh School�as well as for the ,property o nera,
I muat beg of the Counci� that they will pa9e this ordinance for
the new sidewal�,�to be built on �ilton St. from Selby to Su�nnit
Avenuea. . �� a� Y vl' �'{ �
