Find enclosed the Cathedral Area Official General Neighborhood Renewal Plan, copies of which have been given to each member of your Honorable Body. The Plan is a general guideline for the undertaking of specific renewal projects in the Cathedral Area such as Cathedral Project I, the technical- vocational school site project, recently considered and approved by your Honorable Body. Projects II and III proposed in this Plan would only be undertaken after con- sideration and approval by the Council of detailed redevelopment and financial plans yet to be developed for these projects. This Plan represents a joint effort on the part of the Authority and its con- sultants, the Planning Board and other interested City departments. The Plan proposed that Cathedral Projects II and III be primarily residential with renewal to be carried out by conservation and rehabilitation of existing structures with partial clearance where the condition of the structure requires its removal and for assembly of lands for public facilities such as playgrounds and school sites. Project III contemplates some commercial use concentrated in the vicinity of Selby and Western Avenues. The Plan was considered and unanimously approved by the Planning Board at its meeting of October 11th upon a finding that it was consistent with the com- prehensive plan for Saint Paul. The Authority respectfully requests your consideration and approval of this Plan.

It is bounded generally by Interstate Freeway 94 on the north, Cathedral Place on the east, irregularly by St. Albans and Arundel Streets on the west, and irregularly by Marshall and Holly Avenues on the south. The GNRP area is located within the Summit -Dale Community which contains a number of important assets that were considered in the preparation of this Plan. A few of these are (1) the predominantly residential character, (2) the surrounding neighborhoods which are substantially structurally sound, (3) its proximity to the Central Business District, (4) the interest of individuals and groups in improving the area (5) the Cathedral area, one of the City's older and most completely de- veloped communities, and its immediate environs contain a relatively large number of private and public institutions serving persons both within the Renewal Area and beyond its boundary. The GNRP area is composed of approximately 5,800 persons '(1,382 families). Its location and topographic advantages serve to fulfill the expectation that renewal of the area can provide the City of Saint Paul with the opportunities to imagina- tively continue and enhance the revitalization of the Summit -Dale Community. The proposed development satisfies a number of basic objectives. The development: (1) Provides an opportunity to enhance the City and the community with needed additional public educational, recreational and cultural facilities of lasting benefit. - 1 - 0 0 1 (2) Halts and reverses the present deterioration and decline of the area so that this General Neighborhood Renewal Plan will serve as the first element of a comprehensive improvement program encompassing the entire Summit -Dale Community (see Figure 5, Summit -Dale Community). (3) Serves as an opportunity to coordinate renewal with public works such as the Federal Interstate Freeway, John Ireland Boulevard and Marshall Avenue widening. (4) Preserves the existing residential character of the community by the achievement of compatible land uses. (It is anticipated that there will not be a net reduction of the total population in the GNRP area. Middle- income relocation housing is to be} provided within Project I for project displacees.) (5) Provides an opportunity to modernize both the retail and non- retail commercial development in the Selby- Western area. (See Figure 109 View of Proposed Selby! - Western Shopping Area.) (6) Eliminates cross -town traffic by designing a local and collec- tor type street network for the community, utilizing existing rights -o£ -way and pavements wherever possible. (See Figure 49 Proposed Traffic System.) (7) Clearance and Redevelopment, at an early stage (Project I) will strengthen the incentive and probabilities of rehabilitation success (amply demonstrated as key factors in rehabilitation undertakings throughout the country). - 2 - • • The Plan, based on;these objectives, sets forth the vision of distinctive neighbor- hoods interdependent upon the community. In the Plan, aesthetic considerations are of peer importance with technical considerations for an effective neighborhood environment must be rationally arranged, and it must be a pleasant place in which to live. - 3 - 0 • a.

Statement as to basis for revisions in GNRP boundaries from those shown in the Cathedral Neighborhood Planning Applica- tion. A slight modification has been made in the boundary at the intersection of Arundel Street and the alley between Rondo and Carroll Avenue. This modification has been made to clar- ify and correct an error in the boundary description submitted with the Survey and Planning Application. b. Land Use Map (see Map No. 2) Land uses permitted within the categories shown on Map No. 2, Proposed Land Use, are as follows: Residential MediumDensity Medium -High Density Institutional Retail.Commercial Schools Parks, playgrounds and open spaces 1. Population densities Population densities proposed are indicated under 2. below. - 5 - 2. • 0 Building coverage and other building requirements The following are proposed regulations and controls for rede- veloped areas within the General Neighborhood Renewal Plan. These controls are intended to provide a tentative framework for the preparation of urban renewal plans for the three spe- cific projects within the General Neighborhood Plan. It is anticipated that at the time such plans are written, the con- trols herein presented will be reviewed in the light of code revisions, economic and planning conditions not foreseeable at this time. The stated building requirements are considered as an example of the types of requirements that will be estab- lished in specific project plans to be prepared as appropriate.

A minimum parking lot setback of 10 feet from all street rights -of -way or property lines will be required. (c) Where the term "Adequate Parking" is used, the Hous- ing and Redevelopment Authority and the City Planning Board of the City of Saint Paul will determine the adequacy of parking to be provided. Building and site plans of the proposed uses will be reviewed with res- pect to the specific parking needs of any proposed building in terms of its function. (d) Identification of actions required to be taken by State or Local governmental agencies in order to carry out the plan. Zoning Changes Existing zoning within the Cathedral General Neighbor- hood Renewal Plan area is "A" Residence, "B" Residence, "C" Residence, and Commercial (see Map No. 17, Existing Zoning). The major part of the GNRP area (see Map No. 189 Proaosed Zoning) is proposed for "C" Residence zon- ing as the closest existing zoning category correspond- ing to the residential and institutional uses proposed. A small portion of the GNRP area centered at Selby and Western Avenues will be zoned commercial to facilitate - 11 - the modernization of the existing shopping area now located there. Any existing uses which might become non - conforming uses -under the proposed zoning would then fall under the purview of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Saint Paul. The proposed zoning for the entire GNRP is in accordance with the Land Use Plan of the general plan for the City of Saint Paul. c. Plan for community facilities and public improvements 1.: Approximate location, size and character of existing and pro- posed schools, parks, playgrounds and similar facilities. The major land use categories proposed for the Cathedral Gen- eral Neighborhood Renewal Area are: medium and medium -high density residential, institutional, retail commercial, and schools, parks and open spaces. In the discussion of these it is convenient to refer to the area as divided into three sectors formed by Marshall Avenue and Arundel Street (see Map No. 1, Boundary Map). Medium and Medium -High Residential The contemplated residential development of Project I and that of Project II is medium density in character. Project I is proposed as a total clearance project, while Project II com- prises spot clearance and rehabilitation. The residential redevelopment in the first project (a small portion of the - 12 - • • total project redevelopment) is directly adjacent to the resi- dential development of the second project; and is an integral part of this Project II neighborhood. . In general, the second project contains a combination of one family, two family and moderate sized multi - family buildings. A substantial percentage of these structures (40.5% from field survey) are in' sound condition. The estimated amount of clear- ance proposed is approximately 45%. Redevelopment for medium density residential (specifically row houses and garden apart- ments) is contemplated. The proposed type of redevelopment is completely compatible with the existing residential character of the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed Regulations and t Controls will prevent overcrowding. In addition, open space is provided ',both as a recreational and environmental amenity. In keeping with the residential character of Project II, the neighborhood is focused about a new park and playground adja- cent to the existing McKinley Elementary School. The proposed land use and traffic patterns will serve to further conserve and enhance the existing residential environment within the area. Project III, generally bounded by Marshall Avenue, Maiden Lane and Arundel, is a homogeneous residential neighborhood, composed of.numerous apartment buildings, with single and two - family homes being the exception rather than the rule. This - 13 - • • characteristic will not be basically altered by the clearance proposed for the area. This clearance will serve to remove substandard structures and relieve overcrowding and congestion as it presently exists. The proposed residential redevelopment has a maximum density of 44 dwelling units per acre, the maximum permitted under the present zoning code. It is conceivable that when planning of the third Cathedral project is undertaken, a re- evaluation of market considerations will support an increase in the maximum density. This area is topographically and geographically in excellent position - next to the Saint Paul Cathedral on a bluff overlooking the downtown, the State Capitol and the Mississippi River. In addition, new recreational facilities are proposed and the existing Selby- Western commercial area consolidated and rede- veloped aimed at providing a sound neighborhood convenience. Parks and Open Spaces There is now no park space in the first sector. No neighbor- hood recreational facilities are planned for this specific area because the nature of the proposed redevelopment elimin- ates all residential development within the project area east of Western Avenue. The first project includes the site of a proposed new technical vocational high school and a community park and play field of - 14- ri ♦.t.yrrpy�,7 wr7� i4 `.,� approximately 'five 'acres. This latter°'lfacilit,-y incorporates a ball diamond and an area which can be flooded in cold weather for ice skating. In addition, some open space is earmarked for passive recreation. The park will serve the technical- vocational school, as well as the community. (See Figure No. 3, Service Area of Proposed Public Open Spaces) The second or western sector presently contains a playground of .80 acres. Because of its poor location within the neighborhood and the basically unfavorable topography of the site itself, which borders Rondo Avenue and the future Freeway (see Map No. 3, Existing Land Use), the facility is to be abandoned. A proposed park and playground of 5.71 acres adjacent to the existing McKinley School site will replace this latter play- ground. Neighborhood standards require one acre of playground for every 800 persons residing in the neighborhood. Required outdoor facilities include: one softball diamond; one tots' apparatus; one area for children aged 7 -12; one multiple use field game area; one hard surface court games area; and a pro- tective buffer of fences and landscaping as needed. Together, the school site and proposed playground comprise a total of 7.39 acres. This proposed neighborhood park serves all of Project II and the residential portion of Project I which lies generally west of Western Avenue (see Map No. 2, Proposed Land Use). The total population (within the GNRP area) served by the proposed facility - 15 - J 1F_ I • would be 2,728 people (including 672 persons from Project 1) which represents a ratio of one acre to every 480 people served. The recommended traffic pattern within Project II is discussed further in following sections; but, it should be noted that the proposed traffic plan is designed to pre- serve the integrity of the residential neighborhood, thus making the park facilities more easily accessible to all neighborhood inhabitants by the reduction of through traffic on local streets. Project III, which is characterized by an apartment - dwelling population,presently has no park or playground areas within its boundaries. Therefore, the block presently bounded by Virginia Street, Farrington Street, Dayton and Selby Avenues, is proposed for park use. This site, with the addition of the vacated portion of Virginia, would create 1.87 acres of park. Included in this area are limited children's recreational facilities, the major portion allocated to passive recreation areas for the older population in the neighborhood. A total of 12.74 acres of new park area will thus be available to Cathedral Area residents. The following table summarizes the proposed Cathedral General Neighborhood Parks: CATHEDRAL GNRP - PROPOSED PARKS AND PLAYGROUNDS Facility Project Area Type High School 1 5.16 Community Park and Park & Playfield Playfield McKinley Playground 2 5.71 Neighborhood Play- ground Selby- Farrington Park 3 1.87 Neighborhood Park (Passive Recrea- tion & Playground) Total Park Acreage 12.74 Acres - 16 - • • One of the primary goals of this plan is to provide each of the above mentioned residential areas with sufficient park, recreation and open space, resultant in the park sites, as proposed, being selected with several objectives in mind. Included in the objectives were: topography, compatibility with the proposed street pattern, a central and readily accessible- location, as well as the condition and use of existing structures in these proposed sites. In additicn to the redevelopment of these residential areas, new residential units, commercial uses and institutional build- ings are to be arranged so as to provide supplemental open spaces wherever possible. Elementary Junior High g nd High Schools The Cathedral GNRP is presently served by three elementary schools: McKinley, Maxfield and Webster Schools (see Figure No. 62 Elementary and High School Boundaries).

It has been proposed earlier in this section that the McKinley School be augmented with a park and playground of 5.71 acres, bringing the combined site to a total of 7.39 acres. In addition it is proposed, that because of its age'and inadequacy, the school structure be replaced with a new structure or possibly a new addition with modern facilities constructed in Project II. This addition would handle any expected increase in enrollment from the future GNRP population increase. Marshall Junior High School, Central High School and Mechanic Arts High School presently serve and are expected to continue to serve the residential population of the Urban Renewal Pro- ject. As noted in the Saint Paul Plan for Public Educational Recreational and Cultural Facilities, Marshall Junior High School will, in time, expand its existing site and facilities. The construction of the proposed new Technical- Vocational School (see Figure No. 8, View of Proposed Technical- Vocational School) will be a valuable asset to the community and further increase the number of educational facilities available to GNRP inhabitants. Supplementary to the City -wide school facilities, parochial and private schools are located in the immediate vicinity. Within - 18 - It 0 b� walking distance are: 1) St. Paul Cathedral School, 2) St. Joseph's Academy (within the project area), and 3) the Capital City Junior Academy. In summary, the existing schools adequately serve the GNRP residents and, as noted above, indications are that following project redevelopment the number of students from the area will be substantially reduced due to project displacement. It can, therefore, be concluded that the above mentioned facil- ities would provide adequate service to the residents in the Cathedral General Neighborhood Renewal Area. Institutional and Community Facilities During the appropriate stages of project planning, the specific needs of a number of institutions will be reviewed. It is vital to the purposes and objectives of this plan to encourage the development of a stable residential community in the Cathe- dral General Neighborhood Renewal Project and the Summit -Dale Community. Well planned and well maintained public and semi- public institutions are a wholesome addition to neighborhood and community amenities in addition to setting high standards of maintenance as sound examples of civic contribution and pride. It should be noted that these institutions have City- wide and metropolitan influence. The St. Joseph's Academy and the First Christian Church, both withirn the first project area (see Map No. 4 Existing Community Facilities), have requested that they be given consideration when - 19 - the redevelopment plans are drafted. Both have expressed a desire to purchase additional property to be made available for such uses as expansion, parking, playground or open space. The Redeemer Lutheran Church, located at the southwest corner of Carroll Avenue and Dale Street in the proposed Project II, is presently acquiring land for a building program which would include: a new chapel for 100 people, Christian Educational facilities, a gymnasium, bowling alleys, a craft room, and a residential development for the elderly of approximately 100 units. Within and immediately surrounding the GNRP area are numerous institutions of religious, educational, fraternal and philan- thropic nature. Among these are numerous churches: The St. Paul Roman Catholic Cathedral, the Church of Christ, the First Seventh Day Adventist Church, the Dayton Avenue Presbyterian Church, the Redeemer Lutheran Church, the Pilgrim Baptist Church, the St. James AME Church, Peace Church of God in Christ, the Church for Lord Jesus Christ, and the Trinity Lutheran Church. Other elements of the institutional founda- tion of the Cathedral Area would include such worthwhile organizations as the Amherst H. Wilder Welfare Children's Service, the Fairday Nursing Home and the Ober Boys' Club. Local and Community Retail Business The existing retail commercial area, centered•approximately at Selby and Western Avenues in Project III, is in a state of - 20 - v general decline. The existing strip pattern of commercial uses and types is an outgrowth of long- outmoded concepts of commercial development, which overlook the possible effects of the automo- bile upon retail land uses. In general, the commercial uses are found scattered throughout the area with almost no consideration given to convenience, traffic circulation, neighborhood amenities, or other accepted practices of good commercial planning. Most of the existing uses are poorly located, overcrowded, and have little or no parking. Several uses which could be classified as indus- trial are located in the commercial area. It is proposed that in Project III, the Selby- Western commercial area be consolidated and rejuvenated (see Map No. 2, Proposed Land Use). Industrial and marginal uses will be eliminated, and a new commercial complex will be built around existing sound commercial uses such as the new Del Farm Store at the southeast corner of Selby Avenue and Arundel Street. Eventually the existing strip development will be modernized and a new integrated three corner shopping complex, totaling 7.65 acres with adequate parking, will evolve in its place (see Map No. 200 Illustrative Shopping Area) and Figure No. 102 View of Proposed Selby- Western Shopping Area. 2. Approximate location and general character of existing and pro- posed major highways, streets, utilities and other similar im- provements. - 21 - • • The proposed Interstate Freeway #94 bordering the Cathedral f area on the north (see Map No. 6, Proposed Rights -of -Way) will serve to remove some through traffic volume, which formerly used Cathedral Area streets for access to and from the Capitol area and the downtown. In addition to the freeway, the new John Ireland Boulevard now under construction at the eastern extremity of the area will further consolidate and reroute through traffic around the area. The major streets which run through the project area area Dale Street, Marshall Avenue, Dayton Avenue, Western Avenue and Selby Avenue. The first three are the heaviest traveled in terms of traffic volume. The remaining streets are generally interior and local in,character, except that the existing antiquated "gridiron" pattern allows a harmful intermixing of through traffic and local residential traffic within the individual neighborhoods. Most pavement widths range from 30 to 34 feet (see Map No. 5, Exist- ing Rights -of -Way) with both sides of the streets being used for parking, except on major streets such as Marshall Avenue and Dayton Avenue which permit parking on only one side. One of the goals of the plan has been the consolidation -and simpli- fication, as far as possible, of the major and local street systems within the Cathedral project. The proposed rights -of- way (see Map No. 6) were designed in the interest of reducing the number of intersections with minor streets as well as eliminating through traffic from all minor streets presently used as short -cuts and by- passes. - 22 - 0 V The p roposals x 06-d- li6"t-e a +herein, are in x�ccofd` with and reflect the intent of the general traffic plans for the City of Saint Paul (see Proposed Plan for Thoroughfares currently on file with HHFA). At present, Marshall Avenue and Dayton Avenue comprise one -way streets carrying the major portion of traffic into and through the Summit -Dale community. Dayton Avenue carries west bound traffic, while Marshall Avenue carries east bound traffic. With the opening of the Interstate Freeway, it is expected that through traffic presently using the Marshall- Dayton pair will be rerouted around the area. Recent preliminary traffic pro- jections, taking note of this, have forecast a substantial need for the Marshall- Dayton two way street system to function as a main community collector street. It is proposed that the Marshall Avenue right -of -way be widened to 80 feet by the provision of an additional 14 feet on the north side of Marshall Avenue. The pavement will be widened from Cathedral Place to Western Avenue to accommodate the addi- tional traffic expected to be generated by the proposed Tech- nical Vocational School. During Project III, preceding the opening of the Interstate Freeway, Marshall will be widened up to Arundel, approximately 97 feet south of its present right- of-way line. The widening will be continued west to Victoria in separate renewal projects outside the scope of the GNRP. At the completion of the widening, Dayton will no longer function - 23 - • • as a collector link. The widened Marshall Avenue will then serve as a two way collector street leading from John Ireland Boulevard through the body of the Summit -Dale Community (see Figure No.'l, Proposed Marshall Street Cross Section). Dale Street, in accordance with City proposals, is planned to be a major north -south arterial route. To facilitate the even- tuality of-this proposal becoming an actuality, additional right -of -way (bringing the total right -of -way to approximately 120 feet) ,will be provided in Project II. A future second bridge has been proposed by the City Planning Board over the Freeway to facilitate this widening. Western Avenue, one of the other streets within the area designated as a collector, will be resurfaced. The role of Western Avenue as a collector is accentuated by the fact that it is one of the few streets traversing the Freeway as well as passing through the commer- cial district in the vicinity of Selby Avenue. Because of its increasing role as a traffic carrier, an additional 14 feet of right -of -way will be dedicated and reserved to pro- vide for a later widening when needed by future anticipated traffic. All streets within the area generally designated for the school site (i.e., Marshall Avenue to the Freeway right -of -way and Cathedral Place to Virginia) will be vacated in order to provide the contiguous school site necessary to locate a school of the size proposed. - 24 - • • The traffic pattern within the neighborhood has been rede- signed (see Figure No. 4, Proposed Traffic System) by incor- porating a number of cul -de -sacs and a loop, dedications and substantial vacations of portions of streets or alleys. The residential streets have been subdivided into two categories: the "residential feeder street" and the "local street ". The feeder performs the function of enabling the local street to perform a strictly land access function. In doing this, the feeder provides both a neighborhood traffic service and a land access function. It feeds local traffic to the collec- tor and, from that, into the arterial traffic pattern. The arrangement and exact location of the proposed minor local streets is subject to restudy at the appropriate project stage. Utilities The Cathedral Area is adequately serviced with water capacities. Alterations within the water system are proposed in order to continue water circuits which will be altered by plan objec- tives. Minor alterations will also be required to the vaca- tion of a number of interior streets. The existing sewer system is a combined storm and sanitary net- work (see Map No. g, Existing Combination Sanitary and Storm Sewer System). Cooperation and liaison between the LPA, the Saint Paul Department of Public Works, and the Minnesota State Highway Department has made it possible to provide two com- pletely independent sewer systems (see Map No. 9, Proposed -25- • • Sanitary Sewer System, and Map No. 10, Proposed Storm Sewer System), with the Freeway drainage system providing intercep- tors and additional flow capacities, adequate to carry dis- charge from the Cathedral Area. The function and tributary areas of all interceptors were carefully analyzed 16 conjunc- tion with proposed land uses before the evolution of the final plan. The plan, as herein presented, reflects such considera- tions and has been reviewed and approved by the Department of Public Works of the City of Swint Paul. The existing street lighting system will be modernized by re- placement of obsolete fixtures with new luminaries. In instances of street widening, such as that proposed for Marshall Avenue, the removal of all existing poles and lamps, as well as their replacement with modern new fixtures or repair, will be required. Modification, adjustments and additions to the existing elec- trical power, gas and telephone systems will be made where necessary by the particular private utility company involved. In general, the proposed systems as noted herein have been located in such a manner as to eliminate, as much as possible, the need for utility easements; however, where required ease- ments were required (see Map No. 2, proposed Land Use), they were provided. - 26 - • • Performance of Proposed Implovements The responsibility for carrying out the proposed site and utility improve- ments rests with the City of Saint Paul, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Saint Paul (LPA) and the Saint Paul Board of Education. The improvements to be performed by the respective agencies are as follows: (a) LPA Rgsponsibilities The Local Public Agency will remove the existing pavement, curb and gutter, sidewalk, and perform grading on the follow- ing streets: Carroll Avenue from the cul -de -sac east to Dale Street; Carroll Avenue from Mackubin Street east to the east Project Boundary; Iglehart Avenue from Arundel Street to Vir- ginia Street; Marshall Place from Virginia Street to 120 feet east of Farrington Street; Dayton Avenue from Western Avenue to Virginia Street; Kent Street from the cul -de -sac south of Rondo Avenue to Rondo Avenue; Mackubin Street from Marshall Avenue north to the cul -de -sac; Virginia Street from the cul- de-sac south of Selby Avenue to Dayton Avenue; Virginia Street from Iglehart Avenue to Carroll Avenue; Farrington Street from Maiden Lane to Laurel Avenue; Farrington Street from Dayton Avenue to Marshall Place; Nina Street from Laurel Avenue to Selby Avenue; Carroll Avenue and Iglehart Avenue from Dale Street to the Carroll - Iglehart Loop, and a number of alleys within the Project limits and outside the Technical - Vocational School site. - 27 - • • The following streets will be resurfaced: Carroll Avenue from St. Albans Street east to cul -de -sac; Carroll Avenue from Dale Street to Mackubin Street; Iglehart Avenue from St. Albans Street to Arundel; Dayton Avenue from Arundel Street to Western Avenue; Dayton Avenue from Virginia Street to Louis Street; Laurel Avenue from Arundel Street to Maiden Lane; Ashland Avenue from Arundel Street to Western Avenue; Dale Street from Marshall Avenue to Rondo Avenue; Kent Street from Marshall Avenue north to the cul -de -sac south of Rondo Avenue; Mackubin Street from the cul -de -sac north of Marshall Avenue to!Rondo Avenue; Western Avenue from Holly Avenue to Laurel Avenue; Western Avenue from Marshall Avenue to Carroll Avenue; Virginia Street from Maiden Lane north to the cul -de- sac south of Selby Avenue; Virginia Street from Dayton Avenue north to the cul -de -sac at Carroll Avenue; Farrington Street from Laurel Avenue to Dayton Avenue; and Louis Street from Dayton Avenue to Marshall Avenue.

Delineation of parts of area in which contemplated urban renewal action is clear "a"nce and redev'plopment: Areas proposed for clearance and redevelopment for major rights- of-way and major institutional uses are shown on Map No. 1, Boundary Ma g. Variation in clearance areas may occur in Pro- jects II and III during later project planning. The plan for Cathedral Area Urban Renewal Project I, Minn. R -25, is being simultaneously submitted with this document. Dollar relocation and structure estimates are included in the sections that fol- low in order to permit a thorough review predicted on probable maximum clearance undertaking. 2. Eligibility (a) The entire General Neighborhood Renewal Plan area qualifies as an eligible urban renewal area. (b) The area contains no substantial sub -areas which, in themselves, do not meet eligibility requirements for urban renewal areas. (c) Urban renewal project action is contemplated for the entire GNRP area and will exclude no substan- tial sub- areas. The area has been logically delineated to maximize protection against any blighting influences which affect it. The Inter- state Freeway (presently under construction) serves as the northern boundary. The topography sharply slopes downward - 34 - • • toward the central business district to the east and south. The southern boundary has been placed on Maiden Lane (the alley immediately north of Summit Avenue which runs near the edge of the bluff that overlooks downtown Saint Paul). The structures along Summit Avenue are of the mansion type, many of which have been converted to institutional uses (i.e., a priests' rectory, nuns' convent, etc.). The natural bluff fortifies the eastern and the southern boundaries. The GNRP is composed of two sections which are separated by Marshall and Dayton Avenues. The area north of Marshall and east of St. Albans is congested and seriously dilapidated. The area south of Marshall has not declined at as rapid a rate, but it indicates familiar signs of deterioration. The popula- tion of the section east of Arundel is highly mobile, with 85% of the dwelling units renter occupied. The GNRP is predomin- antly residential with a number of commercial structures along Selby and at the corner of Selby and Western. The area has been planned in its entirety, but with a GNRP area of such magnitude it has been delineated into three sub- stantial project areas. These projects will be carried out in distinct stages over a ten year period. The resources available to the LPA assure the punctual com- pletion of all urban renewal project activities. In the determination of eligibility, the following major sources of data were employed: (1) an extensive 100% exterior condition - 35 - survey, (2) a sample interior survey of over 20% of the struc- tures in Projects II and III and a 100% interior survey in Pro- jects I and III evident environmental conditions within the total General Neighborhood Renewal Plan area. Qualifications for Title I assistance stipulate that at least 20% of the buildings in an urban renewal area must contain one or more building deficiencies and the area must contain at least two environmental deficiencies. In areas proposed for clearance, more than 20% of the buildings must be substandard requiring clearance and other clearance must be warranted to effectively remove blighting influences. The tabulations of data included in this section bear out the aspects of conditions ascertainable in the field and show that Federal requirements for both project and clearance eligibility are met. Out of the total of 788 structures in the General Neighborhood Renewal Plan area, 446 or 56.6% are deficient, of which 173 or 22.0% are substandard, thus fulfilling the sub - standardness requirement. Added evidence of substandardness can be expected during the later project stages. Warranted clearance, beyond structural substandardness, is supported by the extensive evidences of environmental and blighting influ- ences within the General Neighborhood Renewal Plan area. In summary, 57% of the structures are deficient, of which 22% are substandard requiring clearance. Other clearance is war- ranted to effectively remove, among other things, the follow- ing blighting influences: - 36 - • • 1. Inadequate pavement widths, inadequate parking facilities, and unsafe traffic flow - residential combinations 2. Excessive dwelling unit density 3. Conversions of one and two family structures to multi - family structures and rooming houses 4. Inadequate plumbing facilities as evidenced by the fact that 26 -27% of the dwelling units have shared baths and toilet facilities 5.

Statement of prospective requirements for rehabilitation of individual properties: Clearance and conservation are the predominant treatments proposed with- ' in Projects II and III of the General Neighborhood Renewal Plan: Project I is proposed for clearance treatment only. Delineation of the conservation areas has been based, in part, upon an exterior survey of all the structures within the Cathedral GNRP. The surrey indicates that over 809 of the structures to be retained are in need of only minor or no repairs. The number of structures to be re- tained which require more extensive treatment are feasible of being upgraded to desirable standards. In many cases the state of the build- ings could be brought up to such standards by the enforcement of the City of Saint Paul Housing Code. A program of effective code enforce- ment is to be implemented during the summer of 1963. It it hoped that by vigilant and vigorous enforcement that the property owners can be induced to maintain such structures in a satisfactory state. Within the two areas proposed for rehabilitation, the existing street pattern has been replanned to discourage undesirable through traffic. In this manner, the residential character of these neighborhoods can be enhanced and protected. An elementary school and park will act as a central focus for Project II, while Project III will have the modernized Selby- Western shopping center as a nucleus in addition to a new park - 39 - • • The following, laws, codes and regulations will be enforced in the area: City of Saint Paul - Building Code - Zoning Ordinance - Housing Code In addition, conservation requirements will be established, aimed at restoring to a sound condition all properties to be retained. The con- servation requirements will be drafted during the appropriate project planning stages, at which time further surveys will be conducted. Such surveys will be directed toward establishing these requirements. The surveys will help determine: (1) Feasibility of rehabilitating structures in the area (2) Debt - carrying capacity of properties and owners (3) Recent improvements completed, underway or contemplated (4) Estimates of rehabilitation costs for structures in the area (5) Attitudes as reflecting the neighborhood identity and community organization (6) Voluntary rehabilitation standards. The property conservation standards to be established will be: (1) Sufficiently high to assure the long -term useful life of the properties and to justify the costs in- volved (2) Feasible of practical application to existing physi- cal condition within the respective areas (3) Directed toward bringing the property to a sound mar- ketable condition in relation to the determined market segment represented in the area (4) Aimed at incorporating as standards additional volun- tary objectives partially determined by an assessment of the attitudes and desires of the residents surveyed in project planning stages and finally determined during the stages of execution. - 40 - 0 • (5) Requirements which residential properties must meet in order to be eligible for FHA Section 220 mortgage insurance. Following are tentative Minimum Conservation Objectives for the rehabil- itation areas in the Cathedral Area. Final requirements will be devel- oped in consultation with the FHA during the project planning stages. General Conservation Objectives: (1) Exterior Rehabilitation (a) Every foundation, exterior wall, roof and all other exterior surfaces will be kept in a state of good repair. (b) Outside stairs, rails, and porches should be proper- ly constructed and adequately maintained. (c) Windows and doors shall be maintained in good repair and in good working order. (2) Interior Rehabilitation (a) Cellars, basements and crawl spaces should be ade- quately maintained to be free from decay or deter- ioration from dampness. (b) The extermination of insects,rodents and vermin wherever such infestation exists. (c) All structural elements of every building should be so maintained as to present deterioration which might endanger the ability of these members to car- ry imposed loads. (d) Interior stairways should be maintained in sound condition and all handrails properly secured and proper lighting provided. (e) The interior of all structures should be maintained in a clean and sanitary condition suitable for human habitation. (3) Dwelling Unit Rehabilitation (a) No dwelling unit overcrowding should exist. Minimum gross floor areas are established in the Housing Code of the City of Saint Paul. - 41 - • • (b) The elimination of dwelling units in basement spaces. (c) Every dwelling unit should be adequately heated in all rooms (such heating equipment to be free from fire hazards and kept in good iepair). (d) Every dwelling unit should contain a water closet, lavatory, and bathtub or shower in good working con- dition. (e) Adequate hot water heating facilities in good work- ing condition and properly connected to the lavatory, bathtub or shower, and kitchen equipment should be provided. (f) A kitchen sink in good condition properly connected to hot and cold water lines will be provided for each dwelling unit. (g) Every dwelling unit is to have space for dry and re- frigerated food storage, as well as for cooking equip- ment. (h) Rooms or spaces should be properly divided to assure reasonable privacy. Adequate closets and storage areas will be provided. (i) Each room in every dwelling unit will be provided with a sufficient number of electrical outlets pro- viding adequate electrical service. (j) All walls, ceilings, woodwork, doors and windows are to be kept clean and free of flaking and peeling paint. (k) Every habitable room will be provided with adequate daylight and ventilation. (1) The proper number of separate exits for each dwell- ing unit will be provided. (L,) Exterior and Property Maintenance (a) All exterior wood surfaces should be protected from the elements by paint or other protective coating. (b) All buildings should provide adequate garbage and rubbish disposal facilities. (c) Exterior property areas should be kept clean and free from the accumulation of weeds, rubbish, litter and the like. - /+.2 - (d) Fences should be kept in good repair. (e) All exterior property areas should be so graded that rain water will drain away from the structure and that stagnant water will not accumulate on the pre- mises. (f) Adequate off- street parking will be provided for each dwelling unit. During the stages of execution every effort will be made to maximize the neighborhood potential and cultural resources available within the area to insure a successful conclusion of the rehabilitation program. Citizen interest will be stimulated and strengthened to promote local community participation in the conservation effort. Project improvements will be scheduled with each Urban Renewal project so as to have the most effectiveness on the rehabilitation work being planned or in progress. A continuing relationship will be established with the Federal Housing Administration, local lending institutions, realtors, building trade unions, and various other organizations which are able to strengthen the conservation of the Cathedral Area. In addition, close coopera- tion will be maintained with those various City departments charged with responsibilities relating to the enforcement of minimum standards pertaining to the public health, safety and welfare. Such contact' will be maintained in order to further implement the standards and goals to be set forth for the rehabilitation areas. f. Identification, by tentative boundaries, of anticipated projects in- volving Title I aid, together with contemplated program of their sequence and timing. - 43 - The boundaries for the three proposed projects are noted on Map No. 1, Boundary Map, and will proceed consecutively as indicated on this map. The first project includes the northeast sector of the area. Project II contains the area lying due west of the first project, and Project III encompasses the area south of the first project. The first project is scheduled to run for a period of four years. Pro- jects II and III are expected to be active for a period of three years each. Project I is expected to take a year longer than the succeeding projects as it is basically a total clearance project and the acquisi- tion and demolition activities involved are more complex and time con- suming as opposed to the other projects which are proposed for partial clearance and conservation. Except for Project I, the planning for each of the succeeding projects will be underway during the execution of the preceding project. Assuming the first project begins in November 1963, the timing will be as follows: Begin End Project I November 1963 November 1967 Project II November 1967 November 1970 Project III November 1970 November 1973 Further examination of the projects may be required because of the over- lapping of two projects at any given time. With the exception of Project I, the timing of funds, relocation, the market, and progress in preceding projects will determine the final schedule.
