WARNER SHIPPEE. E%ECUTIVE DIRECTOR HAROLD L. RUTCHICK, GENERAL COUNSEL I am enclosing a copy of Resolution No. 5812, adopted on Febru- •Y 5, 1958 by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Saint Paul, Minnesota, authorizing the filing of an application for Federal Planning Funds in the amount of $38,989.00 for an Urban Renewal Project to redevelop the Central Park Area. This application was re- viewed and approved by the City Planning Board on March 4, 1958. A copy of the Resolution of the City Planning Board-is also attached. in accordance with the regulations and procedures of the Federal Housing and Home Finance Agency, which administers the Federal Urban Renewal Program, an application for planning advance funds for an Urban Renewal Project must be authorized by a Resolution of -the governing body of the City in which the project is to be planned. At the request of the Housing Authority Commissioners, therefore, I am respectfully referring the matter of this application for planning funds to the Mayor and the City Council for appropriate action. A full copy of the proposed application to the Federal Government is attached to this letter. Further copies are available for Council consideration in our office. Under letter of February 14, 1958, explan- atory.material concerning the proposed Urban Renewal Project was sent to each member of the City Council. I have asked Mr. Harold Rutchick, the General Counsel of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority, to discuss the appropriate form of Council Resolution with the Corporation Counsel of the City of Saint Paul. Representatives of the Housing Authority will be pleased to meet with the City Council to discuss the proposed Application. Sincerely yours, B. WARNER SHIP PEE CC: Mayor Dillon Executive D ixector City Council H.' Rutchick CENTRAL PARK RENEWAL PROJECT R 104 1. General Background The area selected for Urban Renewal is approximately 36 acres in size, It lies Kest of the Eastern Redevelopment Area (UR Minn* 1--1), east of the Capitol Approach Area, and north of and immediately adja- cent to the Central Business District. (See Exhibit R 121 (b)), The creation of the Capitol Approach area on the West, the clear- ing of the Eastern Redevelopment Area on the East, and the steep hill on the north isolate this small area from nearby residential areas* A part of the Federal Interstate Freeway will be constructed between Eleventh and Twelfth Streets, directly south of the Central Park Area, and will cut off safe and convenient access to the Central Business District and all community services which lie south of the area. Furthermore, although the project area consists of only ten and a half blocks, it cannot be considered one neighborhood . The diverse land use, topographical differences and lands in public use, divide it into almost as many neighborhoods as there are blocks. Its lack of continuity and the fact that it is surrounded by non—residence- serving public improvements, deprive it of the essentials which are needed to make it a standard area in which to live. (See R 121 (a) and R 122), The Project Area is predominantly residential with a few parcels of vacant and unused land. However, in its southeastern corner, a few residential structures are interspersed with industrial and comm- ercial structures, These residences are old, dilapidated, and poorly sited. In the section south of University Avenue, the dwellings are R 104 mostly apartment houses or old residences which have been converted to mutti-family use, These structures have not been properly maintained and are badly overcrowded. (See Exhibits R 121 (a) and R 106 (b)), The residential structures which are located on the steep hill north of University Avenue are overcrowded on the land and poorly sited. The extreme topograpaical variations in the area make it virtually impossible for these residences to have any yard space and nearly every • lot must have a retaining wall to keep it intact. In order to utilize as much land as possiblet these houses were frequently built too close to the street. (See Exhibit R 122). The streets, for the most part, are in good condition but they are so heavily traveled that they create a hazard to the people liv- ing in the area. Sherburne Avenue, between the project boundaries and Robert Street, is improved with only a stairway and this is in very poor condition. The concrete treads are cracked and worn, the light fixtures have been broken many timed and the right- of-way has been • used for the dumping of refuse. There is also a wooden stairway between Jackson Street and Capitol Heights, located just south of the platted area in the block bounded by Capitol Heighte, Jackson Street and Wales Street. This stairway is in need of re-enforoement, lighting, and should be cleared of weeds and debris. (See R 121 II. Selection and Delineation Selections The Central:Park Urban Renewal Area is being eelected for renewal at the present time for the following reasons~ R 104 1. Many residential structures are deteriorating and are in substandard condition, See Exhibit R 106 (b). 2, Macy of the , ressdential structures are overoccupied, over- crowded on the land, and poorly sited, See Exhibit R 106 (b) and R 1220 31 University Avenae, Robert Street, Jackson.Street and Cedar Street are heavily traveled and create a nuisance and a dengeroua en- vironment for the resident <ial area, (See R 121 (a) ), 4o Urban Renewal will eliminate the conditions indicated above, 5. The Capitol Approach Area, the Eastern Redevelopment Area, and the planned Federal Interstate Freeway vi.11 surround the project with public'projects and isolate it from virtually all normal community facilities. (See R 121 (b)). 66 Undertaking renewal of this area now would permit the coor- dination of renewal activities with the construction of the Freeway System, the further expansion of the Capitol Approach,, and the develop- ment of the Eastern Redevelopment Area. This offers to further improve r the physical layout and fiscal - soundness of the community and the pro- ject area 7. So far as can be determined, the area meets all of the general and apecific criteria for clearance areas set forth in the report en- titled "Selecting Urban Renewal Projects., Some Proposed Policies." Delineation The Urban Renewal Area is naturally bounded by the Capitol Approach Area on the west, a steep hill on the north, the Eastern Redevelopment Area on the east, and the Central Business District on the south, In the near future, the Federal Interstate P►reeway will bound the area on the southq __ t R 105 valley Playground is located east of the Project Area and is being developed into an effective recreation area.

An ex- hibit which is designed to tell the urban renewal story to St..Paul citizens, has been placed on public display by the Housing and Redevelop-, • ! ment Authority on several occasions, Community organizations, whose general objective l s to assist in the urban renewal process have formed and are multiplying.' Downtown St. Paul Inc., The Relocation Advisory s. Council axed the Chamber of Commerce Oommittee for the Rivervi6r Indust- rial District are but a few of the citizen groups which are engaged in urban renewal activities, See also the "Report on Progress in Saint Paulus Urban Renewal Program," which was submitted to the HHYA on 11/19/57 with a request for recertification of the Oityls Workable Pro- gram, Exhibit R 130 (b)„ 8 130 (b) (Transmitted by Mayor Joseph D, nilion to the Housing and Home b'inanee,Ageney on November 19, 1957) REPORT ON PROGRESS in Sair•�- Pa- a.3 a Urban Renewal Pr (gram This record of -progress is ax.ianged in the order of Saint PaRalts 11-Workable, Prcg.ramn Statement, ent.tled IMW LIFB IN SAINT PAUL, which was originally adoptad. by the city Council is March, 19560 rr citizen Interest 9,ad Partici -pation, The following specific actions have been taken in setting into motion the. program of citizen. participation, outlined in the Workable Program; A. A film bibliography (Exhibit la) has been prepared and distributed to schoolteachers, libraries.and to others who::are potentially users of films, This bibliography lists all of the films which are available locally which bear some relationship to the urban-renewal and city planning. It is hoped that in making it available and encouraging the,use of the films listed therein, many more people, will become familiar with urban renewal and 'its objectives. >3 An annual report of activities of.the Housing and Redevelop- ment Authority was prepared, published and distributed widely to leaders throughout the community (Exhibit lb). While this report was not prepared in a npopular H- 1manuer, -1- it 'does contain a relatively complete review of the -2*•' 1 activities of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority and indications of its future program. 0. A number of established, citizen's organizations cooperated with the American Council to Improve Our Neighborhoods in presenting, locally,.,the progra,ftur Living Future." ti 4- For this pres�`utation, the Housing and Redevelopment Auth- ority prepared a hand —out, incorporating a brief review • of the Authorityts program, a pamphlet describing the . meaning and nature of urban renewal and an abbreviated film bibliography. These hand —outs reached everyone who attended the "OurLiving Future" show. (Exhibit lo) D. The local central business district association, Downtown incorporated, has been actively studying the problems of renewing the centrab areas of the City. In doing.this, they made available to the. City Planning Board $4gO00 for the preparation of an exhibit outlining some of the problems and potentialities of the downtown area (Exhi- bit ldj. in addition, $1300 were made available for a detailed, factual analysis of the problems and. character — istics of the central area. Some of the material prepared in connection with this study is presented as Exhibit le. Finally, this organisation has sponsored a series of work- shops for the purpose of discussing and publicizing down- town problems and opportunities (Exhibit lf). The City J -2*•' 1 Planning Board, the Housing and. Redevelopment Authority and affected departments of City Government participated in all of these activities and in doing so were able to present a fair picture of the concepts of urban renewal. The annual report of Downtown Incorporated, which more fully illustrates its program, is given as Exhibit lg. M*! The City Planning Board has delineated planning districts and "neighborhood" areas so as to facilitate renewal planni- •. ing and neighborhood organization efforts, The results of this effort have been published in the form of a report entitled "Proposed Planning Districts,u which is submitted herewith as Exhibit lh, P; The Housing and Redevelopment Authority is contemplating the addition of a "community organization" worker to its staff, A number of citizen organizations, in areas that are most likely to be affected, have expressed an interest • _ in banding together for the purpose of studying, advising and helping to promote the Urban Renewal Program. It is expected that as soon as the Housing Authority is staffed to work with these groups, it can initiate organizational efforts which will substantially advance citizen partici- patio" in the urban renewal effort. G; A number of citizen organizations have voluntarily expressed interest in and taken specific actions regarding the�deve— lopment of legislation.-concerning improved housing and: erg.. health., particularly the Housing Code. Among these are: 1. League of Women Voters (Exhibit 10 2, St. Paul District Area Health Council (representing about 90 organisations) 3, Ramsey County Medical Society 4, St, Paul District Dental Society H. in the summer of 1956, the St. Paul Chamber of Commerce appointed a special committee under the chairmanship of the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the First Nation- al Bank of St. Paul, Mr. Julian Baird, to study and foster an organised and coordinated - program for the redevelopment of the so- called bower '.Nest Side - - Holman Field area in St. Paul. This committee represented the various private and government agencies potentially involved in the area which included among others the State Highway Department, the City of St. Paul Public Works Department and Planning Board, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority, the Met - ropolitan Airports Commission, St, Paul Port Authority and • the U. S. Corps of Army Engineers. The committee was very effective in bringing the various agencies together and in identifying needed legislation. Ddring the legislative session it sponsored, together with the City of St. Paul and the agencies involved, amendments to the Municipal Housing and Redevelopment Act, a new St. Paul Port Authority Act, and a bond authorization for the city's share in a program of flood control in the power West Side - -- Holman Field area. All of this legislation was passed with over- whelming support. The committee was also effective in or- ganizing interest and support in the application for survey and planning funds to the Federal government by the Housing, and Redevelopment Authority for the Riverview Renevtal Pro-- ject, now pending in the Regional Office of the Housing and Home Finance Agency. I. while no public announcement has yet been made, the forma- tion of a non-profit organization whose ,purpose will be to • finance, advise on and otherwise promote the planning and development of the central business area is almost assured. The initial effort of this organization will be directed toward the replanning of the central business district. Approximately $80,000 is being subscribed for this purpose. Every effort is being made to assure that the work of this organization will be integrally related to that of official departments of city governmento to established citizens and commercial organizations and most particularly to the • comprehensive planning and redevelopment program of the city. In so far as possible, the relationships which are being developed between the agencies concerns& and this planning effort are being formalized to assure their Con- tinuity. II, Administration of the Ronewal ProarM, So far as the Program has progressed in Saint Paul, virtually all 'of the procedural steps and organizational relationahi" established in the Workable Program have been observed. However, the following actions should be particularly noted: A. The City Planning Board has prepared and published a report which delineates potential renewal areas and recommends general priorities for the undertaking of renewal projects. This report, entitled "Proposed Renewal Areas," is sub- mitted herewith as Exhibit 2a. B. The Housing and Redevelopment Authority has taken the ini- tiative in promoting cooperation between various agencies • so that its program will be properly coordinated with the provision or expansion of other public facilities within or affected by or affecting a renewal project. 0. Close cooperative relationships have been maintained between the Department of City Planning and.the Housing and Rede- velopment Authority and other agencies of City Government with the result that all projects now in the planning stage are well understood and fully supported by the agencies con-» • coned. D., As a guide to the orderly undertaking of the Urban Renewal Program, the City Planning Board has prepared and issued a report recommending policies to be used in Saint Paul for the selection of future urban renewal projects. This re- port is submitted herewith as Exhibit 2b. E. In order to assure proper coordination of a planning of the proposed Interstate Freeway System and that of the city, the position of Highway Engineering Coordinator has been -6- created in the Department of Public Works,= This position has been filled by a man with an established reputation who is respected throughout the community and throughout the departments of city and state government, Already, the establishment of this position has proven extremely valuable in facilitating communication between the Housing and Redevelopment Authority, the City Planning Board, the Department of Public Works and other interested depart- meats of city government, • F. The State Highway Department has- proposed - and-wil1 very shortly begin working with two committees in Saint Paul relative to the planning and construction of the Interstate Freeway System. One of these committees will consist of citizens who -have an - interest and a, stake -in the freeway :system and Its impact upon the community, The second will be made up of technicians and representatives of,the various departments of city government, It is hoped that through •the establishment of these committees, much batter aoordiaa-- tion will be achieved between the planning of the freeway system and that of the city and the Redevelopment Authority. -1II4 Oommunits Planning and Renewal.. The following points are made as documentation of the fact that the City of Saint Paul is expanding its support of community planning: A, The 1957 and 3.958 budgets for planning are given below in comparison with the budgets of previous years. Also indi -- 40 cated is staff size. It can be clearly seen that, with the funds now available to the Planning Board, it can make considaably greater progress on the Community Plan than heretofore. SALARIE", TOTJIL BUDGET, AND STAFF SIZE OF THE CITY PIMING BOARD OF SAINT PAUL 1955 -1958 Year Salaries Total Budget Staff Size 1955 $ 43�4S3 $ 45,483, 9 1956 501213- 55,519 10 1957 57,41.7 67,188 * 14 1958 67.956 7798" * 17 In addition, for the purpose of preparing the Comprehensive Plan, approximately $23,000 will be spent in 1957 and $43,000 in 1958, as a grant from the Housing and Redevelopment Authority. Actual evidences of progress toward the completion of a community plan and the programs which are being followed to that end are given as Exhibits 3a to 3fa Additional evidences of growing community support for planning are as f o;.7 ows so 1) Thne Mimesota State Legielature, in its 1957 session, passed legislation establishing a Metropolitan Plann- ing Commission for the Twin Cities Area, This. Commission has been formed, a director has been hired and shortly after the first of January, 1958, it will begin operations. Efforts to create this Commission have been fully supported by public officials and citizens in Saint Paul. 'E7- . A series of meetings of the Metropolitan Planning Commission have been held, a program for its operations in the next year has been adopted and numerous inter- ested individuals have been in attendance other then the members of the commission itself. As many as cne- hundred-fif ty persons have been in attendance at these meetings, 2) The 1957 Minnesota State Legislature also created, in the State Department of Business and Economic Develop- • ment, a position which has 'been filled by a planner whose job it will be to lend advice and assistance to local communities in the State on matters related to Community Planning. IV. Codes and Code Enforcement. The following points outline progress which is being made rela- tive to the various codes and ordinances of the city: A, Building Code: The Building Code is being revised from time • to time as the need for various improvements . becomes appar- ent a B. Zoning Ordinance: While some minor revisions are being mode to the Zoning Ordinance from time to time, groundwork for the redrafting of the ordinance on a comprehensive Basis is now being laid. Exhibit 3a indicates the current sched- ule of the Planning Board for the completion of drafts of a new Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map. �9� 0, Subdivision Control Ordinance: The original time table .for the preparation of a new subdivision control ordinance called for it to be completed.in the winter of 1956. How- ever, because there is generally little vacant land rema.ia,- ing to be subdivided within the City and because, through existing administrative practices, the staff of the Plann- ing Board and the Plat Commission are adequately reviewing and controlling subdivisions within the City, priorities for this item of work have been adjusted; it is now planned, • that a new subdivision ordinance will.be completed by the end of 1958• Do Housing Code: The first draft of a Housing Code was com- plated and presented to the Mayor and City Council for con-. sideration in August of 1956 (Exhibit 4a). Since that time, it has been reviewed by various civic organizations and a- technical committee, representing the departments which might be concerned with it, has reviewed and revised it • (Exhibit 4b), Certain important items in the ordinance,. such as the designation of the enforcement agency and the degree to which single family homes are to be subject to the ordinance, have been discussed at length and decisions are now being reached on these points. The ordinance has been referred to the City Attorney for drafting in its.final form and it is anticipated that public hearings on its adoption will be held before the ead,of 1957- . --1C- Water and Sewage Mow n s An ordinance to control the aon- struction and operation of private water and sewage dispose) systems has been drafted by. the Bureau of Public Health, in cooperation with the Planning Board and other interestell city agencies; and is being held for consideration of the City Council, pending the completion,of similar legislation at the State level. As soon as coordination of these con- trols is assured, the City will take steps to adopt this legislation. • r, Rodent.Cogtrols An ordinance, to improve the existing con- trol of rodents in both residential and non - residential areas has been drafted and is being reviewed by appropriate authorities at the State and Federal levels. This legis's,- tion will also be ready for Council consideration in the near future. In addition to making some progress on the development of this code structure, the City of St. Pau] has augmented its enforce- ment resources. Illustrative of this are.the increases in the budget of the City Architectts Office, which is charged with the enforcement of the Building Ordinance and the Building Code. BUDGET OF THE OFFICE OF THE CITY ARCHITECT ST.-PAUL MINNESOTA. 1956 -198 Year Bu e 1956 $ 3319442.00 1957 386,442.00 1958 403,724.00 _11- While some of the increases in this budget were required because of increases in salaries, they have been large enough to permit a net increase in the number of persons-assigned to inspection work. In addition to increased resources in the City Architect's office, the inspection staff of the.Health Department has been increased from 12, iu 19559 to 14, today. V. Housing for Displaced Families, Since the original submission of the Workable Program, a consider- • able amount of progress has been made in the rehousing of families from redevelopment projects presently in progress and in provid- ind rehousing opportunities for those who will be displaced by future projects. Among these specific steps are the following.* A. All of the 1400 families living in the three project areas which have just been cleared by the Authority, have been satisfactorily rehoused. B. The Mt. Airy, Low -Rent, Public Housing Project is now under . construction. Altogether, 458 units are being constructed and will be completed by the summer of 1959. 0. Action has been taken by,the Housing and Redevelopment Auth- ority to sell land from the Western Redevelopment Project Area to a private developer for the construction of 360 units of rental housing. D. Action will soon be taken by the Housing Authority to dis- pose of lands in the Eastern Redevelopment Area, some of which will probably be used for the construction of private rental housing. _12- IE. The Housing and Redevelopment Authority has conducted studies which will enable the City to request that Section 221 Federal Mortgage Insurance Committments be made available to persons displaced by various public programs in the Citya F. In addition to the steps outlined above, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority is conducting studies to determine the extent to which additional public housing units should be constructed to accommodate anticipated future displace- ments. If a need is determined, the Authority will take steps accordingly to program and plan for the construction of additional units of public housing. VI. Neighborhood Planning: The first and major step in bringing together and coordinating planning efforts in the cityte neighborhoods has been fiaken. This is the delineation of planning districts and the publication of a report indicating and describing them. This report is sub- mined herew ith as Exhibit lh, As studies on the Community Plan progress, it is anticipated that additional data, plans and pro- grams will be developed on a "planning district° as well as a oity -wide basis. And, it is hoped that through the dissemination of the report and the recommendations of the Planning Board re- garding planning district boundaries, other departments and agen- cies of government and private organizations will increasingly use the planning, district as a basis for research and program and facility planning. ..13.. An example of the way in which the above described report on planning districts is being used by the Planning Board, the pro- posed plan for the development of the north half of plan --ing district 20 is submitted herewith as Exhibit 6a. Finally, as a first step in the detailed planning of areas in the el ty fcr renewal, the Housing anc. Redevelopment Authorit -y has prepared two ayplications for planning advance and submitted them to the Urban. Renewed. Administration for.approval. One of r these, for the Upper Levee ProJeat R. Minn. 1-3, has been approv- • ed and detailed planning for this project will start immediately. It is understood that the other is being processed and will be acted upon by the Urban Renewal Administration in the relatively near future, it is hoped that planning may progress for the area coverer by the second application shortly after the first of the yearn, FII. Fi nancna: One of the foremost problems in financing City Government in Sain-, Paul, which existed at the time the 'Workable Program was originally submitted, has been relieved. This is the per capita limitation on the Cityls expenditures which is established in the City Charter, In the elecrion which was held in the fall of 1955, the voters of the City approved.an,amendment to the City Charter which raised the ceiling on direct, annual, city expendi- tures from $42 to $53 per capita. This action gave the City Gov- ernment, approximately $3,5 million more dollars per year with Which to operate. It is furtcer anticipated that when the census --14— of 1960 is taken, the number of people actually found in the City will be shown to exceed the number which are estimated in Accordance with the Charter formula. If this is true, still further opportunity will be created for raising the level and quality of services and programs to City residents (and the finan^ sing therefore). However, the City is not content to simply raise additional monies through an increased tax rate. Construction records show that • the City's efforts to improve its tax base have been bearing fruit. Now construction in Saint Paul has equaled about $360 per capita for the last two years, as compared to $140 for Minneapolis and $210 for the State of Minnesota as a whole, What iermore, prospects are good for increases in the amount of pri� vats construction, particularly in the two redevelopment areas which are now cleared and in vacant land on the City's East Side where, in some areas, utilities are now being provided for the. • first time, In addition, the Municipal Housing and Redevelopment Act was amended by the State Legislature in 1957 to increase the redevel- opment tax levy from a maximum amount of one half mill to a maxi- mum of one mill• Subsequently, the Housing Authority's request for .the full mill levy for 1958 was approved by the City Council. This increased the amount of local funds available yearly for urban redevelopment and urbaa renewal activities from $110,000. -15- to $220,000. These funds currently are being used to finance existing federally aided redevelopment projects and to provide local share for additional projects as well as for redevelop - ment planning activities. •.
