BRENNA K. QUEBBEMANN, 1564 Fulham St. stepped forward to ask the <br /> following questions relative to the Grove project: <br /> Q: Is there more cost with watermain replacement? <br /> A: Cost of watermain replacement is city funded and not assessed <br /> to homeowner. <br /> Q: Will driveways be repaired from sidewalk to the street? Is <br /> that part of the project? <br /> A: Yes <br /> Q: When will Hoyt Avenue be repaired? <br /> A: Since there is joint ownership of Hoyt Avenue in the Grove <br /> between Falcon Heights and the City of St. Paul, it is not <br /> entirely up to Falcon Heights to decide. It does not seem to <br /> be a high priority of the City of St. Paul. <br /> Q: How are sidewalks assessed? <br /> A: Sidewalks are projected to be assessed at $8 /front foot so if <br /> you live on a corner lot, you will not be assessed for the side <br /> yard, only the front footage. <br /> Q: Any chance the assessment might go up? <br /> A: It is possible. The bids have not been taken yet. That <br /> information should be available at the next hearing. <br /> There being no others wishing to be heard, Mayor Baldwin closed the <br /> hearings at 7:55 P.M. <br /> ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION ORDERING IMPROVEMENT <br /> Councilmember Ciernia moved to adopt Resolution R -93 -16 ordering <br /> the improvement and the motion passed unanimously. <br /> R -93 -16 <br /> RESOLUTION ORDERING IMPROVEMENT <br /> ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS <br /> AND ORDERING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS <br /> Councilmember Gehrz inquired about the underground wiring for <br /> street lights on certain boulevards in the Grove area and whether <br /> this wiring was going to be moved. Maurer indicated that it would <br /> be moved by NSP along the curb to facilitate boulevard tree <br /> plantings. Maurer also indicated that three trees along Coffman <br /> between Folwell and Hoyt would have to be removed because of the <br /> proposed pathway. <br /> Councilemember Gehrz moved that the resolution approving the plans <br /> and specifications and ordering advertisement for bids be adopted. <br /> Motion passed unanimously. <br />
