CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br />Topic Report: Naming of the New Mid-Sized <br />Conference Room in the Ramsey Municipal Center <br />By: Jessica L. Hendricks, Management Intern <br />Background: <br />The new conference room that is being constructed as a part of the upcoming build-out is expected to be <br />completed on June 1, 2010. In preparation for the new room, City Council will need to choose a name. <br />Presently the theme for conference room names centers on water, with the exception of the Alexander Ramsey <br />Room. Following is a list of current conference room names: <br />Eddy Lake Room <br />Ford Brook Room <br />Lake Itasca Room <br />Mississippi River Room <br />Rum River Room <br />Sunfish Lake Room <br />Trott Brook Room <br />If the Council is interested in continuing with the theme of water, there are other local bodies of water, one of <br />which could be utilized as a namesake: <br />Emerald Pond <br />Thorn Lake <br />Rogers Lake <br />Jeglen's Marsh <br />Trillium Falls <br />The Council also has the option of tying the name of the new conference room to Ramsey Town Center, by <br />using it as a namesake. As a part of the branding exercise, it has been decided that the area of Town Center <br />surrounding the Municipal Center will be called The Cor. The Cor signifies that this area is the center of Town <br />Center, as well as being an acronym for the City of Ramsey. Like the Town Center Cor, the new conference <br />room will be located in the center. <br />Funding Source: <br />The costs associated with the new name have been included in the signage proposal as a part of the build-out <br />package. <br />Action Statement: <br />Based on discussion. Direction given at the Work Session will be presented on the Consent Agenda at the <br />April 13, 2010 City Council meeting for formal consideration. <br />Reviewed by: <br />Deputy City Administri~p~JC~'om~uni a elopment Director <br />City Administrator: ~~ <br />CCWS: 04/13/10 <br />
