Res 'Redevelopment Plan for the Eastern
Redevelopment Project UR Minn. 1 -19
revised March. 1960.
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Saint Paul,
Minnesota, originally adopted Redevelopment Plan for the Eastern Redevelopment
Project (Project UR Minn. 1 -1) on February 59 1952 and adopted certain amendments
thereto on February 16, 1953. The City Council, after a public hearing held in
compliance with the requirements of M.S.A. Sec.•462.5219 Subd. 1,9 approved the
original Plan by resolution adopted March 69 1952 (Council File No. 159030), and
later approved the amendments by resolution adopted March 109 1953 (Council File
No. 163105). The Authority subsequently entered into 4 Loan and Grant Contract
with the Housing and Home Finance Agency to provide the necessary financing for
this Project.
The Authority by its Resolution No. 60-18 dated Mar6h 249, 1960 adopted
revision to Redevelopment Plan for said Project Area entitled "REDEVELOPMENT PLAN
FOR THE EASTERN REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT, "[)R MINN. 1 -19 REVISED MARCH, 1960 ". This
revision constitutes a reaffirmation and readoption of originai Redevelopment Plan,
as amended, "retaining all essential elements of the original Plan, provided, how-
ever, for the following changes:
1. No changes have been made in the Project Area or in the project bound-
aries, except to correct the boundary description to include the land in said Pro-
ject Area intended to be included by the boundary description of said Redevelopment
Plan and to include only that land acquired or intended to be acquired by the Auth-
ority as part of said Project Area. Said corrected boundary description now in-
cludes a small rectangular tract of land previously acquired by the Authority situ-
ated north of Valley Street between the boundaries of the Eastern Redevelopment

Project Area and the Mt. Airy Low -rent Housing 'Project Areal and excludes a small
rectangular tract of land situated at Twelfth and Temperance Streets which has not
been acquired and is not to be acquired as part of the Project Area.
2. This Revised Plan substantially changes the land uses specified in
the approved Redevelopment Plan for said'Project Area and.contemplates the disposi-
tion of the land in the Project Area for the following uses:
A tract of land proposed to be designated as Parcel 1 containing
approximately 18 acres to be sold to the Ancker Hospital Building
Commission for the construction thereon of a new public hospital
facility.
A tract of land proposed to be designated as Parcel 2 containing
approximately 9 acres to be.sold to the Department of Education
and Department of Parks and Playgrounds of the City of Saint Paul
for school and park purposes.
A tract of land proposed to be designated as Parcel 3 containing
approximately .3 acres to be sold to the Department of Parks and
Playgrounds, City of Saint Paul, for playgrounl purposes.
Tracts of land proposed to be designated Areas a, b, c, d and e,
totaling .42 acres, to be sold to the lit: Airy Public Housing
Project.
A tract of land containing approximately 20 acres designated as
an area reserved for sale and transfer to the Department of High-
ways, State of Minnesota, for construction of the Inter - State_
Highway System.
The remainder of the Project Area is to be dedicated to the City
of Saint Paul and tobe used for public street purposes within the
Project Areal including a strip of land lying along Jackson Street
to be used for the widening of Jackson Street.
The Minnesota Municipal Housing and Redevelopment Act in M.S.A. Sec. 462.525
Subd. 6 permits modifications of approved Redevelopment Plan and requires that where
the modification or revision substantially alters or affects'the general land uses
that the same be approved by the governing body of the City upon notice and after
such public hearing as is required by M.S.A. Sec.-462.5219 Subd. 1. Said latter
Section requires the City Council to hold a public hearing on said revised Redev-
elopment Plan after published notice in a newspaper of general circulation in the
municipality at least once not less than 10 days nor more than 30 days prior to the
date of the hearing.
I am submitting herewith for your examination a proposed Notice of Hear-
ing on Redevelopment Plan. As you will note the revised Redevelopment Plan for the
Eastern Area contemplates the offering by the Authority of a tract of land proposed

Also submitted herewith for your examination please find proposed resolu-
tion for adoption by the City Council approving the revised Plan. If you will com-
pare this resolution with the original Council action of March 69 1952'you will
find that the resolutions are substantially the same. The findings of fact and
pledges of cooperation (which are required by Title I of the Housing Act of 1949)
made in the 1952 resolution are expressly restated and reaffirmed. I have also
included findings and determinations by the Council that this revised Plan contains
all essential elements of the original Plan and constitutes a readoption and re-
affirmation thereof.
This revised Redevelopment Plan has been approved by the URA, however,
they have suggested certain changes in the financial plan which is the subject,of
Application for amendatory loan and grant. As soon as I have received definite
details of any changes in the financial plan'of this revised Redevelopment Plan
I will advise. "
I will greatly appreciate your examination of the proposed resolution
and your advice as to whether you find it in satisfactory form for adoption by
the Councii, and will be happy to meet with you to discuss the contents of the
resolution if you so desire.
