As stated <br />earlier, however, no request is being made of the municipality in <br /> <br />thiB case for any type of aid, bonding, or the like. <br /> <br />However, there is a method by which the municipality can <br /> <br />assist, without expending any funds.

It <br />woUld be hoped by the developers that the City of Ramsey would in <br /> <br />tuun.then, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Chapter 465.026, convey <br /> <br />t ~ <br /> hose lands for $1.00 to Wesley Bulen, pursuant to his commit- <br /> <br />merit, to be guaranteed through performance bonds, to construct <br /> <br /> maintain an lie-hold golf course over the ].and control, led and <br /> <br /> 7 <br /> <br />I <br />! <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />i <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br /> <br />
