I <br />I <br /> <br />Patricia C. Bayer <br />9500 Ermine Blvd. <br />Anoka, MN 55303 <br /> <br />To~ <br /> <br />City of Ramsey <br /> <br />Desr Councilpersons: <br /> <br /> I <br /> I <br />I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> <br /> I have recently become aware of the contract that Ramsey <br />'holds with the Elk River Fire Department. On Octoberl8, <br /> there wss a small fire on my property. It was a small fort <br /> in my bsckyard. <br /> <br /> My neighbor noticed the smoke and called the Elk River Fire <br /> Department. In a matter Of minutes, she discovered that it was <br /> only a small fire that was already being extinguished and <br /> called the fire department back and cancelled the call; however, <br /> a few minutes later a fire engine and a small fire truck arrived <br /> at my residence. The~ used no sirens. One fireman asked my <br /> name and they left' ~hey made no effort to ask questions or <br /> help extinguish th~ quickly-dying fire. <br /> <br />-I feel that if {he Ramsey Community was aware of this contract, <br />they would take ~,action to change it. I'm sure they-do' not <br />realize that if one day'while having' a barbecue,'I could notice <br />smoke in their backyard, call the Elk River Fire Department,' <br />and my neighbor would 'be stuck with the bi'il. .. <br />T~s bill ~or $225.~s~:sO u~2ust thJt I refuse to pa~ it, or ' <br />even refer t% to'my Insurance. I~ the Elk River Fire Depart~'en~ <br />would~'~4ve~'made an effort to help, even after'the 'ca'nce~lati~n,' <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Patri'cia C. Bayer '' <br /> <br /> <br />
