"Hon. Mayor & Common Council
City of Rochester, Minnesota
Gentlemen:
A suggestion has been offered by the Minnesota Department
of Highways that Broadway from Fourth Street Worth to Sixth
Street South should be resurfaced.. This would involve a co-
operative project and the City would be expected to stand a,
share of the exp"ense. A rough preliminary estimate indicates
that this share might range between $15,000 and $25,000.
We, the undersigned, recognize the desirability of such
a project improving the appearance and riding qualities of
Broadway. However, since no funds are presently availalbe
for the City's share of such work, we recommend that no
immediate request be made for such an agreement; but that
funds for such a project be budgeted assoon as possible.
We, further recommend, that all possible steps be taken
immediately to correct the conditions now existing at the -
railroad crossings and the several "sags" in the present
pavement so these areas will be suitable for resurfacing
when the time comes.
