LEXINGTON AVENUE The Ramsey County Highway Department is going to use the abandoned house at 1105 W. County Road D as a temporary field office next summer while they work on Lexington Ave. The house is located on the northwest corner of the D and Lexington intersection, and the plan is to straighten out the curve of Lexington at that points which means the house will eventually be removed. For this reason, the house was condemned and the owners have already moved. The use of the home as a field office will save the County from bring- ing in one of their mobile units.

However, one of the things upon which they insist is that they be allowed to have their own individual sign "flashing the time and temp- erature", and AH ordinance says that multiple occupants of one building must be listed on one sign only.
