elementary school building, to be built jointly with Redeemer
Lutheran Church and Grace Lutheran Church. We have secured an
option to purchase a tract of land of approximately 72 acres
extending south of 5th St. X. W.,-to and beyond Cascade Creek,
and between Sth and 9th Avenues N. W. This option will expire
June let.
The proposed widening of 5th St. N.W., will take approximately
1 1/3 acres from this tract of land. The final purchase of this
land must be contingent upon the action by the Common Council in
regard to this proposed widening. At our regular monthly meeting
of voting members last evening the following resolution was adopted
after a review of the entire situation was presented by the
Committee.
'Resolved to urgently request the Honorable Common Council
of the City of Rochester to make a final decision regarding
the proposed widening of 5th St. N.W. , by or before June let,
1955; and further,
To request favorable action on this project; and further,
To offer to trade approximately 1 1/3 acres of our land
required for thiswidening for land of equal value in the
tract directly west of our land, which is presently owned
by the City; and further,
To offer to deed to the City areas along Cascade Creek for
the purpose of flood control; and further
To request the Common Council to determine the feasibility
of establishing a pedestrian andbicycle path from 5th St.
11. W., along the extension of Sth Ave. N.W. , and over and

"Honorable Mayor and Members'of'the
Common Council
Gentlemen:
I hereby wish to make application for a permit to use the
sanitary sewer recently installed on Third St. S. W.
The property is known as the Castle Trailer Court.
However there is a rod of -land between the court and the
street, which I have negotiated to buy, the deal to go thru
Thur. next.
By acquiring this rod, I will be able to drop back east
plenty far to give plenty of elevation.
The use of city sewer would take care of approximately
20 spaces, not including the water from the laundry.
This I am sure would be benefit to the community as
advised by the county and state boards of health.
Thank you in advance.
Steve Finn"
