Absent: Councilmember Van Wagner. <br /> <br />Case #4: Mr. Marc Hadle~ To Discuss Sandburq Community School Youth Program: <br />Mr. Marc Hadley and the Principal of Sandburg (Ron Mitchell) were present. <br /> <br />Mr. Hadley stated that based on the fact that 75% of the enrollment at <br />Sandburg is Ramsey children, the City of Ramsey is being requested to <br />pick up a proposed percentage cost of the Sandburg Community School youth <br />program cost. <br /> <br />Councilmember Reimann inquired as to how many children from Ramsey participate <br />in the youth program. <br /> <br />Mr. Hadley replied that that is a difficult question to answer but there <br />should be good Ramsey participation now that an activity bus is provided <br />for Ramsey children. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated that he has talked with children that have progressed on <br />to Sandburgfrom Ramsey elementary and they miss the after school activities. <br />It is essential to keep children at that age busy, that there is evidence <br />of loitering on Anoka City streets after school hours and there is a definite <br />need for this program. Mayor Gamec stated that the proposed school budget <br />actually runs into two City budget years, that a partial payment could be <br />authorized with this years budget, the program reviewed and second payment <br />authorized during next years budget planning . <br /> <br />Ron Mitchell stated that there would be no problem presented by the City <br />making two installments, but for the City to say they will review the <br />program before authorizing payment of the second installment could be a <br />problem because certain salary commitments will already have been made. <br /> <br />Councilmember Schlueter stated that she cannot foresee why the second <br />installment would not be approved and that she would like to see Sandberg's <br />youth program expanded. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec inquired if school budget cutbacks could necessitate the need to <br />withdraw Ramsey's activity bus from the budget. <br /> <br />Ron Mitchell stated that the program success is contingent on busing and <br />anything is possible, but as of right now the bus is available. <br /> <br />Councilmember Reimann stated that he is not in favor budgeting funds for <br />this program not knowing exactly how many Ramsey children will participate <br />and if the activity bus is cut from the budget, Ramsey will end up paying <br />for that also. <br /> <br />C/June 28, 1983 <br /> Page 6 of 20 <br /> <br /> <br />
