He said since the City <br />cannot stop people from buying public property, he would oppose the motion. <br />Motion by Councilmember Elvig, seconded by Councilmember Backous, to approve the <br />Memorial Site Easement Agreement between the Ramsey Rotary and the City of Ramsey and <br />authorize the Mayor and City Administrator to sign such Agreement. <br />Further discussion: Mayor Ramsey asked if there is a mechanism where there could be a choice <br />to not sell a brick to someone.
