PLANNING ~qD ZONING COMMISSION <br /> CITY OF RAMSEY <br /> ANOKA COUNTY <br /> STATE OF MINNESOTA <br /> <br />A regular meeting of the Ramsey Planning and Zoning Commission was <br />held on Tuesday, August 7, 1984 at the Ramsey Municipal Center, <br />15153 Nowthen Blvd. N.W., Ramsey, ~innesota. <br /> <br />Members Present: <br /> <br />Mr <br />Mr <br />Mr <br />Mr <br />Mr <br />Mr <br /> <br />Kenneth Peterson, Chairman <br />Charles LaDue <br />Terry Hendriksen <br />Lee Johnson <br />Benjamin Deemer <br />Geral Z~nrnerman <br /> <br />Also Present: <br /> <br />City Attorney William Goodrich <br />Mr. LeFevere of LeFevere, Lefler, Kennedy, <br /> O'Brien & Drawz <br /> <br />Members Absent: Dr. Duane Kennen <br /> <br />CALL TO ORDER <br /> <br />Chairman Peterson called the regular meeting to order at 7:34 p.m. <br /> <br />CITIZEN INPUT <br /> <br />Darryl Fults - 15410 Barium Street - Stated that he has been a <br />resident of Ramsey for 11 years and serves on the Economic <br />Development Commission and his comments tonight are his personal <br />opinion and not that of the Economic Commission. Mr. Fults <br />requested that the Planning Commission consider that the landfill <br />has been here for a long time, it will always be there and be a <br />problem within the City. The City now has a chance to gain some <br />big revenues out of the landfill. At this time Ramsey is responsible <br />for what is being buried up there; we might be able to get some help <br />from the State and County but that assistance would not include <br />installation of a water system if it comes to that. We now have a <br />chance to sell it and Waste Management assume the responsibility <br />of the landfill. ~{r. Fults then quoted some figures from Waste <br />Management's letter of July 3, 1984 regarding revenues that would <br />come into the City from the landfill. <br /> <br />Doug Fountain - 15255 Garnet St. NW - Stated that Ramsey does not <br />have to put itself in a position of going before the Metro Council <br />and M PCA as an advocate for this hazardous situation. There are <br />more Ramsey citizens interested in this case than just the homeowners <br />that will be seriously affected by any expansion that may be allowed. <br />On July 24, 1984 a petition was presented to Council, signed by <br />2000 residents, requesting that the expansion be denied. As appointed <br />representatives of the Ramsey citizenry, each of the Con~nission <br />members should consider very seriously the public opinion. Mr. <br />Fountain stated that he obtained 200 of the signatures on the petition <br />himself, only two persons he contacted refused to sign, and one person <br />chased him in order to have the opportunity to sign. Hopefully, this <br /> <br />P & Z/August 7, 1984 <br /> P~ 1 ~ R <br /> <br /> <br />
