Mayor Gamec mentioned~ithat one of Ramsey's concerns is it's eligibility for <br />grant funding, namely LAWCON grants. Those grants are designated for parks <br />developed within an urban area and Ramsey's Central Park, which will serve <br />the entire City, is located in a Rural area. Ramsey feels the way that <br />funding is set up is unfair to cities like Ramsey and the requirements of <br />that grant should be reviewed. Mayor Gamec noted that Ramsey doesn't fall <br />in the right category for most grants -- cities of our type just don't fit <br />in. <br /> <br />Councilmember Reimann brought up the subject of hazardous waste and landfills. <br />Councilmember Reimann stated that if the State is going to dictate where <br />these sites are to be located they should set up some strict regulations <br />regarding installation and safety precautions. <br /> <br />Ms. Nunn stated that her organization is not involved in hazardous waste <br />because Legislature has set up a Waste Management Board of which Bob Dunn <br />is Chairman. <br /> <br />Councilmember Schlueter stated that she serves on the Processing Area Task <br />Force and they want some assurances that dollars will be provided to cover <br />the costs of any problems created, other than the city picking up those <br />costs. Councilmember Schlueter stated PATF gets the feeling that the Waste <br />Management Board is more concerned with mitigation and compensation for <br />those cities that are sited for landfill disposal rather than those, sited <br />for processing. Ramsey is concerned as to what Metro Council can do once <br />the issue gets to Legislature to see that we get our mitigation and <br />compensation. <br /> <br />Ms. Nunn replied that when the report comes out and if it doesn't address <br />all of the concerns, contact your State Legislator and Senator and inform <br />them that you don't thing the report is adequate. <br /> <br />APPROVAL OF AGENDA <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Reimann and seconded by seconded by Councilmember <br />Van Wagner to approve the agenda with the following additions: <br /> <br />Council New Business - Case #10 - Accepting and Awarding Price Quotes <br /> For Backstop Fences at Ramsey's Central Park <br /> <br />Mayor/Council Input - Cable T.V.; Councilmember Van Wagner <br /> <br />Motion carried.
