MY <br />WIFE AND I PURCHASED OUR HOME AT 5961 148TH AVE N.W. IN <br /> <br />JUNE OF 1998 AND WE HAVE LIVED HERE EVER SINCE. I WOULD LIKE TO GO ON THE RECORD AS BEING <br />OPPOSED TO THE REVISED RULE CHANGES. WHEN WE MOVED HERE TO RAMSEY, SNOWMOBILE RIDING WAS <br />ALLOWED PRETTY MUCH EVERYWHERE. AND PEOPLE DID THIS. WE HAD <br /> <br />RIDING ON THE PROPERTY IN OUR BACK YARD AND SOMETIMES EVEN COMING UP BETWEEN HOUSES TO THE <br />STREET IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE. ALTHOUGH I REALIZE THESE PROPOSED CHANGES PUT THE PROPOSED <br />RIDING AREAS FAR FROM OUR RESIDENTIAL AREA, IS THE NEW RIDING AREA <br /> <br />GOING TO INFRINGE ON THE PROPERTY OF OTHER RAMSEY RESIDENTS, OR THEIR SPACE OR PRIVACY? I <br />ALSO AM VERY CONCERNED THAT IF THE CITY COUNCIL MAKES THIS CHANGE, IT WILL ONLY BE A MATTER <br />OF TIME BEFORE THE PEOPLE WHO PROPOSE THIS CHANGE WILL BE BACK ASKING TO EXPAND <br /> <br />THE AREA THAT THEY CAN BE ALLOWED TO RIDE IN THE FUTURE. THE CHANGE THAT WAS MADE IN AN <br />ORDINANCE TO ONLY ALLOW RIDING NORTH OF A CERTAIN AVE. WAS MADE TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF <br />LIFE WITH ALL THE PEOPLE OF RAMSEY IN MIND. IT SEEMS TO HAVE WORKED VERY WELL, WHY IS THIS <br /> <br />CHANGE EVEN BEING BROUGHT UP AT A COUNCIL MEETING? SINCE THIS REVISION AFFECTS SO MANY <br />RESIDENTS OF RAMSEY, SHOULDN'T THIS BE VOTED ON IN AN ELECTION? <br /> <br />IF PEOPLE ON THE CITY COUNCIL ARE CONVINCED THAT THIS IS WHAT THEY WANT TO VOTE FOR, <br />THEN I PROPOSE THAT THEY CONSIDER A FEW THINGS TO PUT INTO THE REVISED RULES: <br /> <br />1. IF THE COUNCIL MAKES THIS A PERMANENT CHANGE, IT MIGHT BE TOO HARD TO CHANGE <br />IN THE FUTURE. THEREFORE, I PROPOSE THAT ANY <br />CHANGE BE MADE TEMPORARY OR ON A "TRIAL BASIS". IF THIS NEW CHANGE <br />IS FOUND TO GENERATE TOO MANY COMPLAINTS OR THIS NEW PRIVILEGE IS ABUSED, <br /> <br />THEN THE PRIVILEGE WILL JUST EXPIRE. <br /> <br />1 <br />
