A. Armstrong, City Engieee; was read: "Mayor Alex P. Smekta City of Rochester, Minnesota RE: Root cutting along sidewalks Dear Mayor: In reply to your call of last week regarding a root cutting machine to cut tree roots along side of the public sidewalks, I submit the following: The Sidewalk Inspector and Iare both very aware of the problem of tree roots raising and disrupting the sidewalks in residential areas. This is especially troublesome due to the fact that the property owner is responsible for the cost of the sidewalk replacement, while the City controls the planting and removal of trees (Ordinance,772). I be that the purchase and operation of a root cutter to prevent tree roots raising and disrupting the sidewalks in residential areas would be a reasonable undertaking, and it should be started as soon as funds are made available. It could be operated by either this department or the Park Department, but because of mill limits on both of these funds, it would be impossible to finance the costs within their limitations. Payment of this operation from the General Fund would seem to be necessary. Presently we are preparing the Sidewalk Replacement Projects for 1965. There are over a hundred locations in Northeast Rochester alone that require sidewalk replacement, and the majority of these are due to tree roots. It seems foolish to replace these sections of walk without also cutting roots that cause the trouble. If the -root cutting machine is available at the time the sidewalk is replaced, it may prevent reoccur- rence of the trouble in many instances. Your help in this -matter is deeply appreciated. The initial cost of the machine is about $3,700. Its operation for 4 months during the summer would probably cost $3,000 for labor and supplies. Yours truly, /s C. A. Armstrong, City Engieer" Upon motion by Perry, second by Eichten, and all present voting in favor thereof, the above letter was referred to the Board of Park Commissioners. A letter signed by R. C.
