flight pattern. <br /> <br />It has be~9 stated that these businesses would be grandfathe~ed in. It <br />is our con~ent~on WHY CREATE A HAZARD FOR'MANY, JUST TO BENEFIT A FEW? <br /> <br />III) The ~tat~ment_ that an improved airport will increase both business <br />and resid~tiail property, valuatiQns is in fact both misleading and an <br />insult to!. ~ne'~ intelligence. It is a'well known fact that airports <br />cause a de~al~a~tion in residential properties located in the immediate <br />flight pa~ern$. Why do you suppose that the Veteran's Administration <br />requires a'ibuy~r to sign a VA Airport Noise Clause when he is considering <br />buying a h~me located close to an airport (enclos'ed find a copy of the <br />clause). <br /> <br />IV) Let's al~ face the fact that industrial development will not become <br />a reality! ~or ~amsey in.the near future. 1-94 has taken the majority of <br />truck traffic ~way from Highway 10. There are many lots and industrial <br />sites located ~n Hennepin County which are waiting for development with <br />sewer andi~ate~ already in and present landowners in a precarious situation. <br />It is IMP~ATI~E that the city of Ramsey in its zeal to move forward does <br />not creat~ias~tuation which will place ~ts present landowners in a <br />position w~ere! they will be unable to pay high taxes and 'face possible loss of <br />their properties. <br /> <br />V) Whyl Would the city consider airport development and create a situa- <br />tion that woul~ put airplanes and residents in jeopardy? The landfill <br />is now clOSe tb the.maximum height limitations' and with the permits al- <br />ready issUgd w~ll soon exceed maximum height. This landfill attracts <br />birds which ar~ also a hazard. <br /> <br />Some ques~ionsl to be considered: <br /> <br />#1) At the l~st Public Hea~ing why was~our City Attorney not present to <br />answer questions? <br />#2) Why. has ~he attorney been absent for alot of the meetings recently <br />held in the city? <br />#3) Why did ~he Airport Commission have an emergency meeting during the <br />last Publ~ He,ring for the airport? <br />#4) During t~e last Public Hearing when a city'official was asked if the <br />airport wa~ already a fact of life the official stated that the City <br />Council has no~ approved it. Then, why later during the meeting did that <br />same official ~tate that in order for the airport to be stopped a petition <br />had to be. ~igned by residents forcing a vote to be held. Does this sound <br />like the airport is not going through? <br /> <br /> <br />
