Also, replace bent straw type street lighting on Aldine St. between Englewood and Hubbard Aves. with single lanterns. Initiating Action The azea is within the boundaries of the HewitUAldine Residential Paving Program scheduled for construction in the summer of 1999. Hamline University has requesied the additions to Hewitt and Englewood, to be made at the University's expense. The change of lighting fixtures on Aldine St. are the result of a petition from the abutting property owners agreeing to pay full costs per front foot. Existing Conditions Hewitt Ave. between Snelling and Holton is presently not serviced by a street lighting system. There are occasional wood pole mounted lights. Englewood Ave, is presently lit by an oJd-style lantern system that is presently scheduled to be replaced with standard newer lanterns. Aldine St. is currently lit with a bent straw type street light. Proposed Improvements Installation of approximately 23 twin lanterns fixtures on Hewitt Ave., between Snelling Ave. and Pascal St.. Installation of three standard lanterns on Hewitt Ave. between Pascal and Holton Sts. Increased wattage on currently proposed lanterns on Englewood Ave. from 70 watts to 100 watts. Installation of three standard single lanterns on Aldine St. between Englewood and Hubbard Aves. Long Side Aid is proposed for properties not fronting on Aldine St. Positive Benefits These lighting improvements will either provide an amount of light that is well above standazd, with all extra cost assumed by Hamline University, or in the case of Hewitt Ave. between Pascal and Holton Sts. will allow standard lighting to be placed sooner than would otherwise be possible due to the University assuming the total cost. On Aldine St., the abutting property owners will receive a type of lighting fixture that they find more aesthetically pleasing. Adverse Effects As with all new lighting systems, there will be some increased maintenance and operating costs to the City. However, the greatest amount, in this case, will be bome by Hamline University through an above standard assessment district. q q -��'Y Tune Schedule This system will be constructed with ffie Hewitt Aldine Residential Paving Proyect in 1999.

We are not requesting an above standazd azea for Aldine St., since the new lights conform to current standazds for residential lighting. If you have any questions, please call me at 66143.

Tasseimyer 785 Aldine Street St Pau{, MN 55104-1105 (651)641-1U37 Dear Neighbor. Recently the City of St. Paul sent you an assessment notice for street paving and lighting. This notice was sent to you in error because Aldine Street was paved in 1983 and doesn't need to be paved again. To correct the error, last week the City sent out a revised assessment notice for $0. Aldine Street will not be paved next year when all the rsst af the streeYs are paved. Aldine Street is also not scheduted to get the street lights reptaced with standard lantem-style fixtures. We have the option to purchase lantern-style fights for our street for $22 per foot of frontage. This means that each property owner on Aldine Street wouid pay an assessment for these lights that is based on the actuai installation cost. Property owners who live on a cross street but Aldine is their side sireet wiil not be charged for this project because they are aiready paying for paving and lighting on their own street. The City of St. Pauf uses a program ca4led "long side subsidy" to pay the portion oF project costs that woutd othernrise be charged to owners of corner properties. In order to get the lights replaced with the Iantems that wifl grace the rest of the neighborhood, we need to submit a petition signed by at least 80 percent of the property owners on Aidine St. requesting the lights. We aiso need to submit a petition from the owners of comer properties stating that they are in favor of this project and that they are aware that they will not be charged an assessment. I afready have around a dozen signatures from property owners requesting these iights as we{I as approva4 from severa4 corner property owners. Wifi you please join in this effort? Cal4 me at 641-1037 and leave me a voice mail message with your address and telephone numher, and stating when is the best time for me to reach you by telephone. i will call you back and make an appointment to bring the petition to your home to get your signature. I will also keep you updated conceming the process and am willing to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you. I hope that we will be enjoying our new street lights by the time the next holiday season roiis around. Meanwhile, i wish you a wonderful hofiday season this year. Your ne+ghbor, � � � �/ 9 ;' �/�� --_ y� �nita Ta�selmyer .. � , I recently asked you to sign a petition to get the St. Paui City Councii to add Aldine Street fo the HewittlAidine Residential Street Paving Project so that lantem-style Iighting could be instailed on Aldine Street for $4.39 per foot of frontage. This letter is an update on the process. I presented our petition before the St. Paul City Council at the public hearing on December 9. Jay Benanav, who represents us here in Ward 4, requested further information from staff members of the St_ Paul DepaRment of Public Works. Public Works staff member Mike Eggum reported to the Council that the cost to install lantem-style lighting on streets that are not being paved is higher than on stree2s that are being reconstructed. He calcufates that the cost to instali the lantems on Aldine Street is $22 per foot of frontage. A representative from the Real Estate Division of the Department of Finance and Management Services, City of St. Paul, then explained that he had sent out assessment notices to property owners on Aldine Street by mistake. The cost of lighting was iisted on those notices at $4.39 per foot. It was this individual who said that the City Council couid vote to provide the lighting at $4.39 per foot rather than the $22 per foot quoted by Mike Eggum. Councii member Senanav wanted to know where the difference wouid come from if the Councii voted to assess residents of Aldine St. $4.39 per foot rather than $22 per foot. The answer was from #he Residential Street Paving budget. Council member Benanav then stated that just that morning, the City Council had added $3.3 miliion earmarked for the Residential Street Paving Program in 1999. The purpose of adding these funds was to get the program back on schedufe. He said that while he wanted to see lantem-style lights installed on all streets, he felt that funding the fights at $4.39 per foot on A�dine Street was not a wise use of city funds in light of the fact that many streets are stili waiting to be paved. He said that it is the intention of the City Council to pave as many streets as possible and they don't want to divert any funds elsewhere unnecessarify. Mike Eggum from Public Works assured me that the residents of Aldine Street can get the lantem-style lights if we want them, but only if we are wiiling to be assessed �22 per foot: Considering that it takes a lot more work to instafi these lights on a street that has been already paved, that price is a bargain. If we invest in this lighting now, we can add significantly to our property vaiues by the enhanced curb appeal. Property values rise after these lights are installed. Face it - lantern-style lights look high class. Bent straw lights suggest "urban renewal." You don't see bent straws in wealthy neighborhoods. For those of you who have not yet signed the petition to get lantem-style lights for $22 per foot, please call me at 641-1037 so i can bring the petition around to you at a time that is mutuatiy convenient. I will also continue to contact the rest of the property owners on Aidine Street to get their signatures. I hope to have this wrapped up and sent back to the City Council for approval sometime during the first week in January. Thank you for your suppoR of this etfort. / ` ZG G��'��til� ' � rta T ssef er � 785 Aidine St. ` Don't hesitate to cafl me if you have questions. ��-��' December3,1998 To the City Council of St. Paul, Minnesota: We, the undenigned property ownen, hereby petition your Honorable body to cause the foIIowin� chmm�e to be made: Replace the e�stin� bent straw li�htin� on Aldine St nor[h of Minnehaha Ave. and south of Pierce BuUer Route with the City standard lantem-style li�hting.

Also, replace bent straw type street lighting on Aldine St. between Englewood and Hubbard Aves. with single lanterns. Initiating Action The azea is within the boundaries of the HewitUAldine Residential Paving Program scheduled for construction in the summer of 1999. Hamline University has requesied the additions to Hewitt and Englewood, to be made at the University's expense. The change of lighting fixtures on Aldine St. are the result of a petition from the abutting property owners agreeing to pay full costs per front foot. Existing Conditions Hewitt Ave. between Snelling and Holton is presently not serviced by a street lighting system. There are occasional wood pole mounted lights. Englewood Ave, is presently lit by an oJd-style lantern system that is presently scheduled to be replaced with standard newer lanterns. Aldine St. is currently lit with a bent straw type street light. Proposed Improvements Installation of approximately 23 twin lanterns fixtures on Hewitt Ave., between Snelling Ave. and Pascal St.. Installation of three standard lanterns on Hewitt Ave. between Pascal and Holton Sts. Increased wattage on currently proposed lanterns on Englewood Ave. from 70 watts to 100 watts. Installation of three standard single lanterns on Aldine St. between Englewood and Hubbard Aves. Long Side Aid is proposed for properties not fronting on Aldine St. Positive Benefits These lighting improvements will either provide an amount of light that is well above standazd, with all extra cost assumed by Hamline University, or in the case of Hewitt Ave. between Pascal and Holton Sts. will allow standard lighting to be placed sooner than would otherwise be possible due to the University assuming the total cost. On Aldine St., the abutting property owners will receive a type of lighting fixture that they find more aesthetically pleasing. Adverse Effects As with all new lighting systems, there will be some increased maintenance and operating costs to the City. However, the greatest amount, in this case, will be bome by Hamline University through an above standard assessment district. q q -��'Y Tune Schedule This system will be constructed with ffie Hewitt Aldine Residential Paving Proyect in 1999.

We are not requesting an above standazd azea for Aldine St., since the new lights conform to current standazds for residential lighting. If you have any questions, please call me at 66143.

Tasseimyer 785 Aldine Street St Pau{, MN 55104-1105 (651)641-1U37 Dear Neighbor. Recently the City of St. Paul sent you an assessment notice for street paving and lighting. This notice was sent to you in error because Aldine Street was paved in 1983 and doesn't need to be paved again. To correct the error, last week the City sent out a revised assessment notice for $0. Aldine Street will not be paved next year when all the rsst af the streeYs are paved. Aldine Street is also not scheduted to get the street lights reptaced with standard lantem-style fixtures. We have the option to purchase lantern-style fights for our street for $22 per foot of frontage. This means that each property owner on Aldine Street wouid pay an assessment for these lights that is based on the actuai installation cost. Property owners who live on a cross street but Aldine is their side sireet wiil not be charged for this project because they are aiready paying for paving and lighting on their own street. The City of St. Pauf uses a program ca4led "long side subsidy" to pay the portion oF project costs that woutd othernrise be charged to owners of corner properties. In order to get the lights replaced with the Iantems that wifl grace the rest of the neighborhood, we need to submit a petition signed by at least 80 percent of the property owners on Aidine St. requesting the lights. We aiso need to submit a petition from the owners of comer properties stating that they are in favor of this project and that they are aware that they will not be charged an assessment. I afready have around a dozen signatures from property owners requesting these iights as we{I as approva4 from severa4 corner property owners. Wifi you please join in this effort? Cal4 me at 641-1037 and leave me a voice mail message with your address and telephone numher, and stating when is the best time for me to reach you by telephone. i will call you back and make an appointment to bring the petition to your home to get your signature. I will also keep you updated conceming the process and am willing to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you. I hope that we will be enjoying our new street lights by the time the next holiday season roiis around. Meanwhile, i wish you a wonderful hofiday season this year. Your ne+ghbor, � � � �/ 9 ;' �/�� --_ y� �nita Ta�selmyer .. � , I recently asked you to sign a petition to get the St. Paui City Councii to add Aldine Street fo the HewittlAidine Residential Street Paving Project so that lantem-style Iighting could be instailed on Aldine Street for $4.39 per foot of frontage. This letter is an update on the process. I presented our petition before the St. Paul City Council at the public hearing on December 9. Jay Benanav, who represents us here in Ward 4, requested further information from staff members of the St_ Paul DepaRment of Public Works. Public Works staff member Mike Eggum reported to the Council that the cost to install lantem-style lighting on streets that are not being paved is higher than on stree2s that are being reconstructed. He calcufates that the cost to instali the lantems on Aldine Street is $22 per foot of frontage. A representative from the Real Estate Division of the Department of Finance and Management Services, City of St. Paul, then explained that he had sent out assessment notices to property owners on Aldine Street by mistake. The cost of lighting was iisted on those notices at $4.39 per foot. It was this individual who said that the City Council couid vote to provide the lighting at $4.39 per foot rather than the $22 per foot quoted by Mike Eggum. Councii member Senanav wanted to know where the difference wouid come from if the Councii voted to assess residents of Aldine St. $4.39 per foot rather than $22 per foot. The answer was from #he Residential Street Paving budget. Council member Benanav then stated that just that morning, the City Council had added $3.3 miliion earmarked for the Residential Street Paving Program in 1999. The purpose of adding these funds was to get the program back on schedufe. He said that while he wanted to see lantem-style lights installed on all streets, he felt that funding the fights at $4.39 per foot on A�dine Street was not a wise use of city funds in light of the fact that many streets are stili waiting to be paved. He said that it is the intention of the City Council to pave as many streets as possible and they don't want to divert any funds elsewhere unnecessarify. Mike Eggum from Public Works assured me that the residents of Aldine Street can get the lantem-style lights if we want them, but only if we are wiiling to be assessed �22 per foot: Considering that it takes a lot more work to instafi these lights on a street that has been already paved, that price is a bargain. If we invest in this lighting now, we can add significantly to our property vaiues by the enhanced curb appeal. Property values rise after these lights are installed. Face it - lantern-style lights look high class. Bent straw lights suggest "urban renewal." You don't see bent straws in wealthy neighborhoods. For those of you who have not yet signed the petition to get lantem-style lights for $22 per foot, please call me at 641-1037 so i can bring the petition around to you at a time that is mutuatiy convenient. I will also continue to contact the rest of the property owners on Aidine Street to get their signatures. I hope to have this wrapped up and sent back to the City Council for approval sometime during the first week in January. Thank you for your suppoR of this etfort. / ` ZG G��'��til� ' � rta T ssef er � 785 Aidine St. ` Don't hesitate to cafl me if you have questions. ��-��' December3,1998 To the City Council of St. Paul, Minnesota: We, the undenigned property ownen, hereby petition your Honorable body to cause the foIIowin� chmm�e to be made: Replace the e�stin� bent straw li�htin� on Aldine St nor[h of Minnehaha Ave. and south of Pierce BuUer Route with the City standard lantem-style li�hting.

Also, replace bent straw type street lighting on Aldine St. between Englewood and Hubbard Aves. with single lanterns. Initiating Action The azea is within the boundaries of the HewitUAldine Residential Paving Program scheduled for construction in the summer of 1999. Hamline University has requesied the additions to Hewitt and Englewood, to be made at the University's expense. The change of lighting fixtures on Aldine St. are the result of a petition from the abutting property owners agreeing to pay full costs per front foot. Existing Conditions Hewitt Ave. between Snelling and Holton is presently not serviced by a street lighting system. There are occasional wood pole mounted lights. Englewood Ave, is presently lit by an oJd-style lantern system that is presently scheduled to be replaced with standard newer lanterns. Aldine St. is currently lit with a bent straw type street light. Proposed Improvements Installation of approximately 23 twin lanterns fixtures on Hewitt Ave., between Snelling Ave. and Pascal St.. Installation of three standard lanterns on Hewitt Ave. between Pascal and Holton Sts. Increased wattage on currently proposed lanterns on Englewood Ave. from 70 watts to 100 watts. Installation of three standard single lanterns on Aldine St. between Englewood and Hubbard Aves. Long Side Aid is proposed for properties not fronting on Aldine St. Positive Benefits These lighting improvements will either provide an amount of light that is well above standazd, with all extra cost assumed by Hamline University, or in the case of Hewitt Ave. between Pascal and Holton Sts. will allow standard lighting to be placed sooner than would otherwise be possible due to the University assuming the total cost. On Aldine St., the abutting property owners will receive a type of lighting fixture that they find more aesthetically pleasing. Adverse Effects As with all new lighting systems, there will be some increased maintenance and operating costs to the City. However, the greatest amount, in this case, will be bome by Hamline University through an above standard assessment district. q q -��'Y Tune Schedule This system will be constructed with ffie Hewitt Aldine Residential Paving Proyect in 1999.

We are not requesting an above standazd azea for Aldine St., since the new lights conform to current standazds for residential lighting. If you have any questions, please call me at 66143.

Tasseimyer 785 Aldine Street St Pau{, MN 55104-1105 (651)641-1U37 Dear Neighbor. Recently the City of St. Paul sent you an assessment notice for street paving and lighting. This notice was sent to you in error because Aldine Street was paved in 1983 and doesn't need to be paved again. To correct the error, last week the City sent out a revised assessment notice for $0. Aldine Street will not be paved next year when all the rsst af the streeYs are paved. Aldine Street is also not scheduted to get the street lights reptaced with standard lantem-style fixtures. We have the option to purchase lantern-style fights for our street for $22 per foot of frontage. This means that each property owner on Aldine Street wouid pay an assessment for these lights that is based on the actuai installation cost. Property owners who live on a cross street but Aldine is their side sireet wiil not be charged for this project because they are aiready paying for paving and lighting on their own street. The City of St. Pauf uses a program ca4led "long side subsidy" to pay the portion oF project costs that woutd othernrise be charged to owners of corner properties. In order to get the lights replaced with the Iantems that wifl grace the rest of the neighborhood, we need to submit a petition signed by at least 80 percent of the property owners on Aidine St. requesting the lights. We aiso need to submit a petition from the owners of comer properties stating that they are in favor of this project and that they are aware that they will not be charged an assessment. I afready have around a dozen signatures from property owners requesting these iights as we{I as approva4 from severa4 corner property owners. Wifi you please join in this effort? Cal4 me at 641-1037 and leave me a voice mail message with your address and telephone numher, and stating when is the best time for me to reach you by telephone. i will call you back and make an appointment to bring the petition to your home to get your signature. I will also keep you updated conceming the process and am willing to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you. I hope that we will be enjoying our new street lights by the time the next holiday season roiis around. Meanwhile, i wish you a wonderful hofiday season this year. Your ne+ghbor, � � � �/ 9 ;' �/�� --_ y� �nita Ta�selmyer .. � , I recently asked you to sign a petition to get the St. Paui City Councii to add Aldine Street fo the HewittlAidine Residential Street Paving Project so that lantem-style Iighting could be instailed on Aldine Street for $4.39 per foot of frontage. This letter is an update on the process. I presented our petition before the St. Paul City Council at the public hearing on December 9. Jay Benanav, who represents us here in Ward 4, requested further information from staff members of the St_ Paul DepaRment of Public Works. Public Works staff member Mike Eggum reported to the Council that the cost to install lantem-style lighting on streets that are not being paved is higher than on stree2s that are being reconstructed. He calcufates that the cost to instali the lantems on Aldine Street is $22 per foot of frontage. A representative from the Real Estate Division of the Department of Finance and Management Services, City of St. Paul, then explained that he had sent out assessment notices to property owners on Aldine Street by mistake. The cost of lighting was iisted on those notices at $4.39 per foot. It was this individual who said that the City Council couid vote to provide the lighting at $4.39 per foot rather than the $22 per foot quoted by Mike Eggum. Councii member Senanav wanted to know where the difference wouid come from if the Councii voted to assess residents of Aldine St. $4.39 per foot rather than $22 per foot. The answer was from #he Residential Street Paving budget. Council member Benanav then stated that just that morning, the City Council had added $3.3 miliion earmarked for the Residential Street Paving Program in 1999. The purpose of adding these funds was to get the program back on schedufe. He said that while he wanted to see lantem-style lights installed on all streets, he felt that funding the fights at $4.39 per foot on A�dine Street was not a wise use of city funds in light of the fact that many streets are stili waiting to be paved. He said that it is the intention of the City Council to pave as many streets as possible and they don't want to divert any funds elsewhere unnecessarify. Mike Eggum from Public Works assured me that the residents of Aldine Street can get the lantem-style lights if we want them, but only if we are wiiling to be assessed �22 per foot: Considering that it takes a lot more work to instafi these lights on a street that has been already paved, that price is a bargain. If we invest in this lighting now, we can add significantly to our property vaiues by the enhanced curb appeal. Property values rise after these lights are installed. Face it - lantern-style lights look high class. Bent straw lights suggest "urban renewal." You don't see bent straws in wealthy neighborhoods. For those of you who have not yet signed the petition to get lantem-style lights for $22 per foot, please call me at 641-1037 so i can bring the petition around to you at a time that is mutuatiy convenient. I will also continue to contact the rest of the property owners on Aidine Street to get their signatures. I hope to have this wrapped up and sent back to the City Council for approval sometime during the first week in January. Thank you for your suppoR of this etfort. / ` ZG G��'��til� ' � rta T ssef er � 785 Aidine St. ` Don't hesitate to cafl me if you have questions. ��-��' December3,1998 To the City Council of St. Paul, Minnesota: We, the undenigned property ownen, hereby petition your Honorable body to cause the foIIowin� chmm�e to be made: Replace the e�stin� bent straw li�htin� on Aldine St nor[h of Minnehaha Ave. and south of Pierce BuUer Route with the City standard lantem-style li�hting.
