As the principal of Ramsey Elementary School in Anoka - <br />Hennepin School District, I agree that the trail gaps being proposed to be addressed are <br />significant safety concerns for children walking or biking to school. <br />While the City has taken the lead in the development of the application, both the school <br />district's Director of Transportation and myself have been in multiple conversations with <br />staff to discuss what changes would improve the safety for children walking or biking to <br />school. The city of Ramsey is the appropriate lead agency for this grant application as the <br />projects proposed are located along county or city right-of-way and not on school <br />property. <br />If the project is selected for implementation, Ramsey Elementary School will conduct the <br />pre- and post- surveys as required in the grant program and in the timeframe outlined in <br />the application. <br />Thank you for your consideration of our grant. We look forward to improving the safety <br />of children walking and biking to school. If you have any questions, please feel free to <br />call me at 763-506-4001 <br />Sincerely, <br />Jeffrey Clasiau <br />// <br />Ramsey E1 mentary Principal <br />ANOKA HENNEPIN <br />SCHOOLS <br />A future without limit <br />
