I I I I I I I I I reason~bl~ control on it; Anoka has raped this community for years~ak~ng the revenues from that landfill for their General Fund ~d i~he people blaming this Council should take their picke~ ~sii~ns to the City of Anoka City Hall. should go Ito Metro Waste Control Commission because the louder you h0%le~ out here the happier they are. It is time the citizens get concerned and do something beyond blaming your Plan~ Commission and Council./~P~BpI~'~-6~I~--~'~membe¥ who- they ~-e-d~ for in-the last ~leC~ion because down at that State Capita! t~ere are people creating jobs for themselves; ten years ago they ~ere paid $8400/year and now they are making over $20,000 plus their travel expenses; California has twenty times our pOPulation and we have just as many legislators as California. Take a=lo~k at the people you elect for office and maybe we can get some.%ccountable legislation and avoid the problems you are seeingltohight Mr. Er~i~?Larson - I am shocked and dismayed that one of the residents[would stand up here and literally run down people that are ~lected to office, knowing full well that many of you work manyihours beyond what you are compensated for. I don't becaus-e I!don't make $20,000 and they tell me it doesn't take any bz~inS to be a legislator -- you just have to win an election. But,~I~iam!going to say this -- I have heard at least six times tonigh~ that Ramsey City Council has never had a chance for input into a~y ~ecision concerning permitting or anything else. You got that Chance, it's here, it's in front of you. I read the paper,~y°u hold the trump card it says. Now, what are you going to do with it? I think the paper also says that Anoka will be riehly~cOmpensated for it's investment in the landfill property. I hope~that Ramsey is justly compensated also, if this comes to pass,~ beCDuse I think $200,000, $500,000, $15,000,000 is peanuts if that ~xound water is contaminated and we look at 20 years or 50 yeats bf pumping that. I think you'll be damn glad that there is a ~P~A,i you'll be glad that there is a Super Fund and I think you ShbU~d be glad that there is a legislature.

Mr. Cooki- Over the last couple of years, there have been increased volumes of waste; decomposition is accelerating. Curr4ntl~, there are some repairs being made to the gas collection systgm; ~ think that the gas collection system and the control of °4°rslis in need of expanding at this time and will be part of these iexpansion plans. . _..
