Commissioner Nelson mentioned that the July meeting was schedule only 2 days after <br />Independence Day, when many persons are scheduling long weekends and vacations and <br />suggested rescheduling the July meeting for July 13, 1995. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Nelson and seconded by Commissioner to reschedule the July <br />Economic Development Commission meeting on July 13, 1995 at 6:30 p.m. <br /> <br />Motion carded. Voting Yes: Chairperson Wagner, Commissioners Nelson, Ullen, and Kent. <br />Voting No: None. Absent: Commissioners Stafki, McGhee, and Marquart. <br /> <br />Commissioner Nelson was excused from the meeting at 7:15 p.m. <br /> <br />Case #4: Game Fair Booth <br /> <br />The Game Fair is scheduled for August 11 through 13 and 18 through 20, 1995 at the Armstrong <br />Ranch Kennels. The City will sponsor a booth and will require volunteer staffing. In addition to <br />getting volunteers, the EDC should determine the information to be available for distribution. <br /> <br />We may wish to use this event to advertise the City of Ramsey. One idea is to stretch a banner <br />across Armstrong Boulevard saying "The City of Ramsey Welcomes the Game Fair", or perhaps <br />to speed the construction of the entrance sign along the eastern boundary of the City along <br />Highway #10. In light of that, the owner of the ParaBody facility have been contacted and have <br />responded favorably to the possibility of granting a sign easement on their property, similar to the <br />one at the comer of Highway #10 and 153rd Avenue. The City will be forwarding a sign easement <br />document to the ParaBody owner with the property described. When this is returned, we will <br />begin the bidding process and construction of the sign. <br /> <br />Anoka Electric Cooperative has been contacted regarding the cost of erecting a banner over <br />Armstrong Boulevard on their utility poles. Mr. Gromberg requested the name and contact person <br />of any known banner companies from the EDC members. <br /> <br />EDC members agreed to review their schedules and arrange times to be at the booth during the <br />Game Fair. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Ullen and seconded by Commissioner Kent to adjourn the meeting of the <br />Economic Development Commission. <br /> <br />Motion carded. Voting Yes: Chairperson Wagner, Commissioners Ullen, and Kent. Voting No: <br />None. Absent: Commissioners Nelson, Stafki, McGhee, and Marquart. <br /> <br />Development Commission adjourned at 7:35 p.m. <br /> <br />/ccr <br /> <br />Economic Development Commission/June 8, 1995 <br /> Page 4 of 4 <br /> <br /> <br />
