Pursuant to "Notice of Street Improvement Heaxing Blacktopping," published in
Hennepin County Review, Hopkins, Elinnesota, June 24 and July 1, 19443, Public

for the Blacktopping of Lexington 2Lvenue.between Concord Benne swd Lot 5,
Block 2, Subdivision of Littel P&k,
from office:
Lexington Avenue West of Lot 8, Block 2, Subltivisian of Littel Fak; and. owner
of said Lot'8 later petitioned Comcil to be included in this contract, Lots 7
and 6 Block2 are' not represented by signatures on petition now before Council;
and hot 5; Block 2 has petitioned for vacation of that portion of Lexington
which his property fronts. Mr. Gsorge MeUema, owner of Lot 5, Blpck 2, stated
that he is willing to stand his proportionate sharepf the assessment because he
must have access to his property, Mr, hes 2. Bicfiards, speaking for those
property owners facing Oak Drive; whose property abui;s Lexington Avenue on the
Noreh, sald these people are absolutely unwilling to pay any part of the assessment
because they do not use the street at all. Mr, 'ICuhnleg, owner of Lot 8, Block 2,
stated he'd be willing to pay his share but thought Oak Drive people should also
be assessed. Engineer's estimate of total $766.92; $1.70 per foot, if' both sides
of street are assessed; $3*40 if only South, side SS agsessed, was read, this
estimate being on a full,30-foot rodway, for 240 lineal feet of blacktopping,
Oouncil suggested 8 15 or 20-foot roadww instead of the usual 3O-f00t, because.
of fact tba% road will not be extensively travelled and there will be pTking on
only one side of street,
