CONTINUAT,ION OF NOVEMBER 26TH AND DECEMBER lOTH PUBLIC HEARINGS ON PROPOSED
IMPROVEMEN OF FRANCE AVENUE BETWEEN W.54TH ST. AND A POINT 1/10 MILE SOUTH OF
W.62ND ST. Report was made to the audience that, since the last puls1i.c meeting
the Council has met with Hennepin County Highway Department; that the County is
now willing to bear two-thirdspf the cost of the ,proposed new bridge, with the
Vi1lag"e to bear one-th&d of the cost; that the Council has agreed that none of
of the cost of the bridge will be as*sessed. Also, that estimated costs for the
proposea storm ^sewer have be'en incre-ased by about $20m,000, primarily for road
purposes, and that the Council has agreed informally that the storm sewer should
not be an assessable cost. Deletion of bridge and. storm sewer costs from the
proposed assessment would reducj? the cost per assessable foot to residential
property' owners by fifty to sixty cents per front foot,
by a total of some sixty-five husbands and wives owning property abutting the
street, and protekting the- improvement on the grounds that "the assessments as
proposed will depreciate rather than appreciate the value of our property" were
presented and ordered placed on file. Oral objections, in line with petitions,
were filed by Messrs. J.B. Atkins, 5837 France;
Howard Nelson, 6117 Halifax Ave.; A.M. Simons, 3901 Grimes Lane; Carl W. Friestad,
5925 France; Albert Farmer, owner of property abutting France; and M. C. Helling,
5921 France. Mr. 0. M. Jacobson, 6229 France, inquired about underground utilities
for the street, and was informed by the Village Engineer that, if the presently
proposed improvements are improved Public Hearings will be held on any underground
improvements not yet constructed. Mrs:Virginia Beard inquired as to why Southdale
has not been asked to pay the cost of the improvement, and was informed that there
is no way they can be assessed because they do not abut the portion of the street
proposed to be improved.
"DO these petitions we have all signed do us any good?" Manager Hyde replied
that, through their petitions property owners have been relieved of two of the
four assessments to which they are objecting.

from France Ave. to Halifax Ave.; on Halif,ax Ave. from W.49k St, to W.59th St.; and

made by Northern States Power Company, which would utilize present ornamental light

post--at an estimated cost of $275.00 per post, or $2.40 per assessable foot. 1on

be installed, at an estimated cost of $800 per post, or $7.00 to $8.00 per kfront
foot against abutting property. He inquired from Attorney VJindhorst as to whether
a new assessment is legal, inasmuch as the assessment is still in force on the
original street lighting system, and was informed that such assessment is within the
'power of the Council. &. Hyde. explained that the plan has*b&en"made pursuant to
requests by several of the property owners in the-business district--Lund, Clancy,
Stein, etc.
reported that the cost is $223 more per year for power for improving"present lights;
and that power for new fixtures would be $550. There were no objections to the
improvement, although LIr. E. C. Stow stated he feels a storm sewer is much more
impoftant than the presently proposed improvement (see action on this latter matter
later in meeting.).
