U Glen H. Olson 839 Sherwood St. Paul 6, Minn. Mr. James J. Dalglish Commissioner of Finance City of Saint Paul Department of Finance 113 Court House St. Paul 2, Minnesota Dear Mr. Dalglish: 1 a/ 21, ?85o July 10th, 1963 Re: Preliminary Order #212542, approved May 3, 1963, "Which proposes to reconstruct the sidewalk on both sides of Jenks Avenue from Arkwright Street to Desoto Street ". Since I will be unable to attend the hearing regarding this matter, I will express my views in writing. I am now the owner of the property at 423 Jenks, (formerly owned by Roy and Edith Davidson). After having examined the sidewalk there, I find that it is still in fairly good condition. There are no broken sidewalk squares, although the sidewalk is not perfectly level, but outside of that,it is not bad. The driveway is still good and the sidewalk to the east of the driveway is in good condition. No doubt, too, you are aware that the three lots east of my property (a total of 180 feet) are vacant and are in the process of being filled. For this reason I believe it would be a waste,.of time and money to put in a new sidewalk at the present time, only to have to be torn up when buildings are built there and then replaced. I feel that the existing sidewalks are still in good condition and no new ones are needed for some time yet. Please give this your careful consideration when deciding this matter and inform me in writing as to the action taken. Yours tru y, Glen H.
