Wick 57.70 Hearing on Proposed Street Improvement Pursuant to notices published in the St. Louis Park Dispatch April 3 and 10, 1952, a public hearing was had on proposed widening of WEST 35TH STREET FROM TEXAS AVENUE TO THE CENTER NORTH,AND SOUTH LINE OF SECTION 18, TO,dNSHIP 117, RANGE 21. The following persons appeared: Robert Nelson, 8115 West 35th Street, H. L. Carter, 3501 Wyoming Avenue, Alfred M. Elie, 8206 West 35th Street, Allen E. Marcott, and Bruce Duemke appeared in opposition. Robert Nelson said widening of West 35th Street would be detrimental to adjacent property due to speed of cars, and would endanger children. It would also spoil the property on the north side of 35th Street. He said that a wider street is not_ needed. Mr. Carter said widening would cause 35th Street to become a speedway. Mr. Elie said that we don't need the extra z street. Mr. Marcott feels that other streets should be done instead of 35th. Bruce Duemke asked why a 60 foot street. Do we need it? If 35th Street is widened and black top laid, we would have more traffic. Trustee Bolmgren explained that a sewer was proposed, and as we have only a 30 foot street at present, all on the south side (Sewer from Yukon to Wyoming). It must come sometime. Robert Nelson asked who would move the houses back to proper setback. E. T. Montgomery, Village Attorney said it would not be necessary to move the houses back. He asked why not carry Walker or 36th Street thru? He was told that that matter would have to be taken up with the Village Engineer. 262 April 21, 1952 Hearing on Proposed Street Improvement, Cont'd He asked if this matter could be laid aside for a year, so that those living in the area may get rid of their holdings. He asked if Mr. Elie who is not tied into the lateral will not be assessed? He was answered that that is right. Mr. Duemke said that this is a hearing for widening and not for any- thing else. On motion of Trustee Bolmgren, seconded by Trustee Middleton, action on above matter was deferred until further information can be secured regarding sewer, etc., by unanimous vote of all Members of the Council present.
