Street Improvements F, G. 612 292 �Q83 P.04-'06 a �.�� A new street is proposed between University A��enue and Mississippi Sueet to serve the new lots. Tf�e street improvements will consist of a 44 foot wide bituminous surface with concrete curb and guttet, aad sidewalk. Concrete medians for traffic wntroi are proposed at University Avenue and Mississippi StreeL Boule��azds will be resto�d with seeding/sodding as needed to conuol erosion. Landscaping and Signage Boule��ard trees will be planted in accordance with the City of St. Paul Reforestation Program. Landscaping including trees, shrubsiplantings, irrigation and signing aze proposed for each of the entrances to the business pazk at University Avenue and Mississippi Sereet Sueet Lighting A new energy e�cient sodium vapor light system will be installed. The sueet lights will be the City of St. Paui scandazd lantern style lighting. Aifemative To do nothing would not be consistent w•ith the City's overall plan to remediate "brownfield" azeas and improve neighborhoods. �T�ithout proposed improvements there would be no organized redevelopment of the project area. Properties would require long private sewer and water services to each lot. Positive Benefits Pcoposed improvements will result in redeveIopment of an existing unpleasant area. Extension of street and utilities n�ill permit construction of new businesses. Proposed amenities including street lighting, boulevazd trees and landscaping will significandy improve the aesthetics of the area. Upon completion of improvements to facilitate redevelopment, significant polluuon, i.e. noise, dust and erosion of material into the storm sewers u�ill be eliminated.
