We constitute �3.3 % of the homeo�vvners:wha will be assessed for Vthis improvement, and ' firmly believe that our petitio� should be granted. for the follovPiag reasans: Ov�r a periad of a relatively fev� years, we have been assessed for water, sewer, grading, � a.nd alley,. and in some cases, these assessments have not yet been paid. in full. Most of us ' are making Iarge mortgage payments,. and the additioa of a.nather assessm�n� at this tim� -will result in a.a undue burdensome fina.ncial strai.n. . ,�, . In additio�, we feel .that the hom�ow�ers who originally petitioned for a sidewalk-are doing so merely to provide.a pv.blic p�layground. for their children. This fact was mentioned as their mairr reason for yvanting a sidewalk. . . that is, their childre�s.had no place to ride their bikea, trikea, a.nd�vyagona. �rom observa.nce, �ve have notedthat even those homes with p�blic sidewalks, the children are in.the streets almoat, or as much, as those without public sidewallc. We believe this is� a personal disciplinary problem, a.nd should be. ha.ndled r by each individua:T fa.mily. All homeowners should not,be w.�justly made to pay for the enter- tainment of a.n,other's recreation. . Finally, the pedestrian traffi�c on Edgar Aven�e is so insignificant that it doesn't warpant � sidewalk. It is not a thru street, or even one that is. used by anyone except those xesiding on it. You seldom see people walking on Edgar. . .most people leave their homes and go directly to their cars. It is not in a lin.e of p�edestria.n traffic. to any school, church, etc. . . . . it is such a minor stre�et tha.t.the �ity of St. Paul has not eyen erected an arc.light at the intersection of Edgar. arid Dale. . . . . it is merely a street inserted between Simon a.nd Jessamine ta nYake the most use of,ava.ilab�e land.
