On the Park Board, Mr. Springer, the Chairman, reported that there are three parks on the way to being ready for use. Brookview Park has been brushed out. There will be tables and charcoal burners there soon. Hunters Hill addition said they would bury the rub- bish for us and make a ball park in their addition for which we are most appreciative. We now have thirteen parks. Mr. Springer will be meeting with the Lions Club of Ramsey to see if we can get tables and burners from their fund. Mr. Springer said he would also like to have signs for our parks so people will know where they are. We will be needing some excavating equipment to use in the park in the Peltzer Park. We will need a bulldozer or a shovel. Mr. Cox recommended we get a dozer in there to do this work. Mr. Ed. Klemish volunteered to do this at a later date. Mr. Murphy said some changes had been made in the proposed zoning map. It is being changed now by Mr. Tooker and a public hearing on the proposed zoning code and map will be held in this hall on April 23rd at 8:00 p.m. Announcement: No further burning permits willbe issued until fur- ther notice by the state because conditions are too dry and it is too dangerous. Mr. Goodrich was asked to check with the fire department about the procedure to follow when cars are on fire on the highway and the fire department is called. We have been stuck with the cost of fire calls in such instances when the cars leave for parts known or unknown and do not pay for the fire call. We have had five or six such calls in the past 1½ years. Mr. Cox moved we contact Elk River to get their fire contract and sign both Elk River and Anoka fire contracts. Seconded by Mr. Hopperstad. Motion carried. Question: There was a fire on the Armstrong Ranch which has not been paid. Should this be assessed against the property? Mr. Peterson will bring all of the fire calls still unpaid to the next Town Board meeting. May 17, 1973 will be Board of Review at the Town Hall at 8:00 p.m.
