National Plan of Integrated Airports System. It is my understanding that the cities of Ramsey, Elk River and Anoka have reviewed the Gateway North Industrial Airport Master Plan and find it compatible with their long range air system needs. It has also come to my attention that the Metropolitan Council, as well as the State of Minnesota, have reviewed the Master Plan and both agree that Gateway North is consistant with their long range air service projected needs for the area. In light of the interest of such groups, I request that you give every consideration to including Gateway North Industrial Airport in the National Plan of Integrated Airports System. Thank you for your your decision. GS:kb assistance. I look forward to hearing of Since GERRY SI Member 1 RSKI Congress
