As the Public Works Director for the City <br />of Ramsey, those few missing segment of trail connections within the two mile area surrounding <br />Ramsey Elementary School are of particular concern — and we appreciate this opportunity to <br />truly provide Safe Routes to School. <br />The City of Ramsey has taken the lead in the development of this application. The City has <br />coordinated with Ramsey Elementary School and Anoka County Highway Department in the <br />identification of the projects and preparing the cost estimates for each segment. <br />If our grant is selected, (or portions thereof), the City of Ramsey will take the lead in <br />implementing the project. Ramsey will oversee the engineering, design and construction of the. <br />project. The City is also responsible for meeting all of the grant requirements. <br />Thank you for your consideration of our grant. We look forward to improving the safety of <br />children walking and biking to school. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at <br />763-433-9825 or email at bolsonnci.ramsev.rml.us <br />Sincerely, <br />Brian Olson, <br />Public Works Director/Principal City Engineer <br />
