Public Hearing -
PROJECT
Improve HOYT AVENUE between Hamline Avenue and Victoria Street (City Project
95-P-1114) by grading, paving with bituminous, constructing concrete curb and gutter,
driveway aprons, waiks, placing topsoii and sodding boulevards; constructing storm sewer,
installing lantern style street lighting and doing ali other work necessary to complete said
improvement.
INITIATING ACTION
This street was originally in the adopted 1994 Budget as a bituminous overlay. As more
information was gathered, and as the Pubiic Works staff investigated the project, it became
preferable to do a complete grade and pave with new curb and gutter instead of the originally
planned bituminous overlay.
A lantern type lighting system and a traffic signal reconstruction wiil now aiso be a part of this
project.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Hoyt Street is an oiled street with a 60 foot right-of-way (except for the one block from Dunlap
to Lexington, which is 72'). There is very little curbing along this street. The existing curb and
gutter in the one short biock between Hamline and Huron wiil be left in place. The driving
surface is in poor condition, being very rough and uneven. This is a bus route. Existing
overhead lighting is mounted on wood poles.
EXISTING TRAFFIC COUNTS:
Hamline to Lexington - 2300 ADT (3-92)
Lexington to Victoria - 1575 ADT {9-92)
Parking is now banned on the North side of the street between Hamline and Dunlap.
According to MSA standards, Hoyt Avenue is classified as a low density collector street.
PROPOSEDIMPROVEMENTS
The MSA standards for a low density collector street are 32' wide with one side parking or 38'
wide with two side parking.
It is proposed to reconstruct Hoyt Avenue to a 32' width keeping the alignment and parking
restrictions that presently exist, with the foflowing exception: !n order to meet MSA widfh
standards, we propose to ban parking on the North side between Dunlap and Victoria.
9��rg�
As an alternate, the street could be widened to 38' with two-side parking allowed. This will be
discussed further at the neighborhood information meeting.
The entire driving length of the project will be regraded and reconstructed with a full depth
bituminous pavement. New concrete curb and gutter, driveway aprons, and outwalks will be
constructed. Within the boulevard area, topsoii and sod wi(I be placed. After construction
completion, trees will be planted in the bouisvards where needed.
The proposed lighting system wifi consist of the lantern light standards.
The traffic signal at Hoyt and Lexington wili be reconstructed as needed.
TIME SCHEDULE
Work will begin in early to mid-summer of 1995 and be completed by freeze up in the fall of
1995.

The City of Saint Paul Department of Public Works has preiiminary pians to construct
concrete curb and gutter, concrete driveway aprons, pedestrian ramps for the
handicapped, a new bituminous surfaced roadway, lantern style street lighting, and
compiete tree glar.tir.g and boulevard resodding on EiOS"i' AVENUE betweer. Fiamiine
Avenue and Victoria Street. The project would be constructed in 1995. You are
invited to an informational meeting to discuss project details, financing and the
construction scheduie.
PROJECT: HOYT AVENUE - Hamiine Avenue to Victoria Street
PROJECT NO. 95-P-1114
DATE: Wednesday, Februaiy 15, 1995
TIME: 7:00 P.NL
PIACE: Como Lakeside Pavilion Banquet Room
1360 North Leaington Pazkway, Saint Paul
The total cost of the project is estimated at �923,000.00. The majority of the
funding would come from Municipal State Aid Funds. A portion of the funding for
the street lighting would come from assessments to tl�e properties affected by the
construction. The proposed assessment rate for the street lighting is $3.98 per
assessable foot.
The existing concrete curb and gutter on Hoyt Avenue between Hamline Avenue and
Huron Street will be left in place and the pavement will be rehabilitated. In order to
meet Municipal State Aid standards, it is proposed to construct Hoyt Avenue between
Huron Street and tiictoria Street to a 32' width with one side parking. Parking is
no.v banned on the North side of Hoyt betu�een 1-iamline and Dunlap. As part of this
project, it is proposed to ban parking on the North side of Hoyt between Dunlap and
Victoria. As an alternate, the street could be constructed at 38' wide with two side
parking. This will be discussed further at the information meeting.
The meeting we are inviting you to is informational only. Final decisions on whether
to construct any or all of the project will be made at an official public hearing af the
Saint Paul City Councii. Property owners who will be assessed will be notified of that
hearing. If you need more information before this meeting, you can call me at
266-6118.

SYNOPSIS dF MEETTNG 2-15-95, REGARDING RECONSTRUCTION
OF HOYfi AVE. BETWEEN VICTG�IA ST. & HAMLINE:
A presentation of the proposed improvements to Hoyt Ave. was
conducted by Paul St. Martin, a street design/civil engineer
of the St. Paul Dept. of Public Works. Greg Reece, o£ City
Forestry, Joe Collins, an aide for City Council member Janice
Rettman, and a person fzom the Real Estate Division were also
present. An intended lighting representative with the city
did not make it to the meeting. 55+ residents attended, an
excellent turnout for an in£ormationai.meeting on a project __
� " of this size.
��� �_In brieE, Hoyt.Ave. in the affected region is classi£ied as �.
- ; �an "oiled street". All oiled streets in St: Paul.are part of :
__ �""an:.accelerated impzovemenL program by the Public Works Dept.,
-:and are to be reconstructed as "paved roads". °
...' will be a manc3atory change�within the next�l5 years.
� •Because Hoyt Ave. is a busline & is considered a state road,
�„' the traffic count requirements, it is eligible (and
" has been approved} for Municipal State Aid (MSA) funds.
These funds would pay for a majority of the work associated
with the upgrading of the zoad. We would otherwise need to
pay for the reconstruction through expens.zve assessments to
our properties. This is an opportunity for us to avoid these
expenses, but using these funds does impose some new
restrictions on us, because the road must meet MSA standards.
The first alternative to satisfy these standards was a
widening of the road from 30 ft. to 38 ft., which was
immediately rejected by all present at the meeting.
More reasonable options become available if residents agres
to iimit pazking to one side o£ the street.
A majority vote at the meeting, including write-ins, was for
Public works to submit a proposal for a variance to allow the
city to reconstruct the road at its current 30 foot width
with parking allowed on one side, using MSA funds.
Following a City Council approval o� the reauest, the
variance proposal would be submitted by Publie Works on March
1, 1995, for considera�ion at the next auarterly variance
committee meeting on March 22nd.
If the variance is rejected, residents agreed that
reconstruction at 32 feet with one-side pa:lcing usi.ng MSA
funds would be the next best choice.
. �
It was the opinion of the City Forester that only four laraer
trees would be at risk at a 32 foot constrnction, vs. many
more at a greater width.
Though not everyone felt that new lighting was needed, this
is apparently a requirement that is tied to reconstrnction
pro}ects. Public works was not certain, but believed that a
total of six lanterns per street would be installed.
Public Works did not deny that traffic flow and speed will
show some increase with road improvement, especially witk any
width alteration. However, raad improvements are not linked
to tzaffic contzols, such as regu2ating signs, sign�2s, or
violations enforcement. Many neighhors voiced strong concerns
regarding traffic sa£ety issues, ar.d felt that it w>as
important to follow up on this separately.
The person we were told to contact in order to express your
concerns and to promote changeJimprovement in `this area is:
Tom Stabsk2ev / Citg Tra£fic Division
Other people you may contact are:

Dear Resident,
q5�181
You have recently received notices of upcoming street
assessments for street work proposed to be under�aken
on Hoyi; Ave. West between Victoria St. and Hamline Ave.
Are you aware however that this proposal might include
a substantial widening of the road?
Hoyt Ave. currently measures out at approximately 30 ft.
in width. Alternate proposals include a widening to
either 32 ft. or 38 £t.
This raises several concerns:
1.) Wil1 the increased width go hand in hand with
increased road traffic?
20) Will this contribute to higher speeds of travel,
and hence increased noise, pollution, and safety risks
to pedestriansl (especially children, eince Hoyt Ave.
is the major commuting street for children in the area
walking daily to Chelsea Heights Elementary School).
3.) Will this require removal of our existing boulevard
trees, and have a negative visual impact on our avenue?
4.) Will this require more rebuilding of our sidewalks,
which many of us have already paid for over the pas�
few years when they were replaced?
5.) Wi11 this have a negative impact on our property
values?
Isn't Larpenteur Ave. close enough to serve the
function of moving traffic in our area?
If you have feelings about these issues that you would
like to express, please ATTEND the meetings listed on
the attached sheet, or please WRITE a brief letter to
be taken to these meetings. YOUR SAY IS IMPORTANT AND
CAN HAVE AN IMPACT AT THIS STAGE OF PROJECT DEVELOPMENTI
As neighbors we are in this together. Pl�ase get
involved if you are able.
If you cannot attend the meetings but intend to wsite
a letter, please contact one of the voluntesrs listed

Re: Proposed Improvement to Hoyt Avenue
Dear Council Members:
We are writing to object to the proposed project to "improve" Hoyt
Avenue between Hamline Avenue and Victoria Street. In partioular,
we object to the proposal to make the Iioyt Avenue wider between
Dunlap and Victoria. Our primary reasons for objecting are as
follows:
First, the pYOposed improvements to Hoyt Avenue are likely to
result in increased traffic flow, and higher speeds of travel.
Increased tratfic levels and higher speeds of travel will
result in more noise and air pollution, and will create a
safety hazard to pedestrians, including the large population
of neighborhood children. Larpenteur Avenue, which is only
four blocks north of Hoyt Avenue, is adequate to handle the
volume and higher speed traffic.
Second, the proposed improvements will likely have a negative
visual impact on Hoyt Avenue. This is especially true if the
improvements will result in removal of mature trees along the
boulevard.
The combination of an increased traffic flow and a negative visual
impact likely to be caused by the proposed improvement project will
result in decreased property values along Hoyt Avenue. We feel
that the proposed project wili result in more harm than benefit to
the residents along Hoyt Avenue. Accordingly, we object to the
proposed improvement project.
Sincerely,
�� � �.��.,,� �.�-..---

To Whom it May Concern:
T am a single retired person living alone on the corner of Milton and Hoyt Ave, and it
has come to my attention that you are piannin� on widening Hoyt Ave. and replacing
the existing lights. At this time I would like to express some concerns that I have with
these proposed plans.
1) The current lighting is more than adequate, making me feel safe and secure especially
in the evening when I frequently walk my dog and at night when I am alone. Will the
new lights be as bright in (ighting up my street corner?
2) Why replace existing sidewalks, curbs and �utters when they were done,not so many
years ago7 This seems rather wasteful to me.
3) The loss of many established trees if the street were to be widened would be a shame.
The replacement with younger, smaller trees would create a barren appearance along
Hoyt Ave. and it would take many years before these trees would mature. I don't know
if I can wait that long.
4) Finally, T am opposed to widening Hoyt Ave., not only because of the above concerns,
but, a1so, because a wider street wouid encourage increased traffic and increased speed
of the vehicles traveling down it.
However, if street repairs become manditory, I would prefer that the state grant money
be utilized. As a retired person on a fixed income, but under the age of 65, I am not
eligible for the deferred payments for assessed repairs. This would be a hardship for
me if the total cost of repairs were to be paid by the property owners along Hoyt Ave.
Thank you for taking the time to listen to my concerns.
Sincerely,
i I �.d�t-(J ���J �iJ�,1 J

Dear Council Members,
We have recently received notices of upcoming street
assessments £or street wark proposed to be undertaken
on Hoyt Ave. West between victoria St. and Hamline Ave.
We were concerned to discover towards the end of our
notices that this proposal might include a
substantial widening of the road.
Hoyt Ave. currently measures out at approximately 30 ft.
in width. Alternate proposals include a widening to
either 32 ft. or 38 ft.
This raises several concerns for us:
1.) Will the increased width go hand in hand with
increased road traf£ic?
2.) Will this contribute to higher speeds of travel,
and hence increased noise, pollution, and safety risks
to pedestrians? (especially children, since Hoyt Ave.
is the major commuting street for children in the area
walking daily to Chelsea Aeights Elementary School).
3.) Will this require removal of any o£ our existing
boulevard trees?
4.) Will this require more rebuilding of our sidewalks,
which many of us have already paid for over the past
few years when they were replaced?
5.) Will this have a negative effect on our property
values?
Isn't Larpenteur Ave. close enough to serve the
function of moving traffic in our area?
We are pleased that State Aid Funds are available for
assisting us in rebuilding our road, and we appreciate
your efforts to obtain them on our behalf. We are also
hoping, however�that we will be gzanted permission to
maintain�treet at its current width.
