Page 5 <br />Special Council Mtg. <br />April 16, 1979 <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec said he felt it was a beneficial meeting. Rep. Jacobs gave some <br />ideas on how to approach members of the League of Municipal Cities. It was <br />suggested hiring someone to go and lobby or fight in behalf of the affected <br />cities. He also noted the fact that the League formula recommending <br />State Aid results in a change of 15 percent for the City of Ramsey when on a <br />gra~ated scale it came out that Ramsey would have to have a 38 percent increase, <br />the League is going the opposite way. It was also suggested that a letter be <br />written to the League that the City is not getting any help, it is a minority <br />with no benefit from the Lea§ue, therefore, the City is considering withdrawal <br />from next year's membership and also to send a letter to the Board of Directors <br />of the League. Roger Peterson is the League party working on the formula for <br />State Aid. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilman Reimann and seconded by Councilman Cox to adopt Resolution <br />79-22 to withdraw from the League of Minnesota Municipal Cities next year due to <br />their non-support of the City and either they write into the preparation of the <br />Bill to take care of the City's consideration and if not, the City will then <br />withdraw their membership and request the remaining membership monies from <br />this year. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
