tach hereto the entire proceedings for the purchase of the

This department has in process Preliminary
Order No. 191247 which proposes to open, widen and extend Lafayette
Road from the Northern Pacific Railway Company's right -of -way to
Collins Street. This opening includes those parts of Lots 2, 3.,-4,
and 5, Block 12; and of Lot 5, Block 13, Warren & Winslows addition
to the Town of St'. Paul, which lies within the strips of land between
the present southeasterly lines of.L.afayette Road and lines parallel
to and 14 feet distant southeasterly from said southeasterly lines
of Lafayette Road., Lot 2, Block 12,'is improved with a one -story
brick store building, and the other lands are unimproved.
I am advised by Mr. Eltor Dehn that in con-
nection with the vacation of Becker Place negotiations have been
carried on with the Capital Realty Company who are the owners of the
above lots. The results of these negotiations are stated in the at-
tached'option, addressed to the City of St. Paul, and include among
other things the acquisition of all portions of the above lots, which
are required for the opening of Lafayette Road, at a cost of $13,000.
J
I am further advised that the owners are
anxious to proceed at the earliest possible date with the improvement
of these properties but that there is insufficient time to complete
the acquisition by condemnation proceedings and do anything on a new
building this fall. I, therefore, recommend that the acquisition be
made by the Committee on Lands in conformance with Sections 302 and
303 of the City Charter and that -the cost thereof be charged to Munici-
pal State Aid, Project No.-62- 113 -01.
I further recommend approval of thiX acquisi-

poration Counsel for the drawing of the necessary form Council action
