ANOKA - RAMSEY <br />MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING <br />ON <br />USE/PURCHASE OF ANOKA WATER <br /> <br />The City Council of Anoka has approved the City of Ramsey's request <br />for use/purchase of water from Anoka by the way of hydrant located <br />at the corner of Thurston Avenue in Anoka and County Road No. 116. <br /> <br />The water will be used for emergency use only, for example: <br /> <br /> 1. Ramsey's domestic water system failure of the well, pump <br />or water main break. Over-taxing the in place Ramsey system is not <br />considered a system failure. <br /> 2. Ramsey's significant fire needs. <br /> <br />Ramsey understands that Anoka must fulfill its needs first; for <br />example, a fire in Anoka will be a higher priority water use "than <br />a significant fire and/or domestic water emergency in Ramsey. <br /> <br />Ramsey has provided a hydrant of different style and color at no <br />cost to Anoka on the South side of County Road No. 116. <br /> <br />Only one way water flow from Anoka to Ramsey will be provided. <br /> <br />Ramsey will contact the Anoka Fire Department and/or the Public <br />Work's Director's designee for permission to use Anoka's water. <br /> <br />For fire use, the amount of the water will be estimated. <br />domestic use, as defined above, the water will be metered. <br /> <br />For <br /> <br />Ramsey will pay for the water used at Anoka's current rate (1989 <br />rate is 57.5 cents per 1000 gallons or .43 cents per 100 cubic <br />feet). <br /> <br />The hose, couplings, adapter, meter and back flow preventer shall <br />be approved by Anoka and purchased by Ramsey. Hose with couplings <br />shall be stored in Ramsey. Meter assembly shall be stored in Anoka <br />with installation under the Anoka Water Department supervision. <br /> <br />Any fire protection hydrant flow tests requiring the Anoka <br />connection and requested by Ramsey shall be under the supervision <br />of the Anoka Water Department Superintendent. <br /> <br />The memorandum of understanding will be reviewed every five (5) <br />years. Any changes must be approved by the City Councils. <br /> <br />Approved by Ramsey City Council this 25th day of July 1989. <br /> <br />Ramsey Mayor Gary Reimann <br /> <br />Anoka Mayor Steve Halsey <br /> <br />Ramsey City Admin.
