It will be an opportunity to learn more about the commuter rail and <br />help support getting the North Star Corridor through the legislature. In his opinion this is <br />a very important thing for the City of Ramsey and the area along Highway 10. It will give <br />the City a gTeat opportunity to get downtown and for the people to come up this way. The <br />corridor is currently scheduled to run between Big Lake and downtown Minneapolis. The <br />support of the local residents in the area is needed. <br />On behalf of the Council and the City of Ramsey he would like to thank Mike McDowall <br />of the Engineering Department and Aaron Madsen of the Public Works Department for <br />their help with the fire on County Road Five last Thursday. He would also like to thank <br />the Police Department for their quick response. Water was brought to the area right <br />away, as there was not any available in the area. Quite a few of the new townhomes <br />under construction were able to be saved. All the work and fast action is appreciated. <br />The Ramsey Town Center agenda item is being canceled from tonight's agenda. <br /> <br />City Council/February 10, 2004 <br /> Page 2 of 18 <br /> <br /> <br />
