The by the direction o~ the <br /> Cemetery <br /> Co~mittee~ <br /> City <br /> Counotl, <br />has been searching out options for a .new cemetery site in the <br />City of Ramsey since Rameey and the Anoka area are becomin& <br /> <br />Cemetery Committee met on February 1~ 1986, with Bob Sylvester <br />and Pastor Dale Olson of Cross oF Hope Lutheran Church. <br /> <br />Cross of Hope o~ne the 10 acre parcel marked aaa and aba. (See <br />attached). <br /> <br />Eember/s fro~ Cross of Rope have purchased the 10 acre parcel <br />adjacent to Cross of Rope (aCe and ada). <br /> <br />Both 10 acre parcels are divided in the Diddle by the power <br />line ~lth a 200* easement. There are approximately ~ acres of <br />buildable land in each of the ~ - halves since the power line <br />e~se~ent can only be used for p~rking. (See dra~in&) <br /> <br />The South half parcels (aBa and aDa)'are bordered by a ro~ o~ <br />trees on the Eorth and South edges, (See drawin&) <br /> <br />Approximately 770 grave sites are possible for an acre of land. <br /> <br /> (1) City of'~amsey purchase adjacent site. ( Ce and eDa) <br /> (2) City of ~amsey make an exchange: <br /> · Cross of Hope ~ill &ire the City the South 5 acres of <br /> land (eBb). ' <br /> · City o£ ~a~sey will give Cross of Rope the ~orth parcel <br /> of the adjacent parcel (aCe). <br /> a in this ~ay~ the South half (aB~ amd ~Da) ~ould be <br /> o~ned by the CiZy for the purpose of a cemetery. (10 acres) <br /> <br /> The would have natural border with the <br /> cemetery <br /> tree~ <br /> and <br /> not be so visible to the neighborhood, <br />2. Cross o£ ~ope intends to develop a park, ball diamond~ <br /> etc. using the adjacent p~rce! (aCe) for the community use. <br /> The land for the cemetery (aBa and eDw) is very suitable <br /> For developi~g a cenetery. <br /> <br /> If there are feelings that the City should not be in the <br /> cemetery business and believe that the private sector could <br /> develop and maintain it ~ore economically~ would the City of <br /> ~amsey make a road using the easement on the East border oF <br />Cro~s of Hope parcel since this is a ~aJor expense for <br />developing a cemetery by the private ~ector? This would enable <br />.Cross of Rope to develop a cemetery for ~thJ~L~ purchase of <br /> &rave sites. A decision ~ust be ~ade by Hay 1~ 1986~ since a <br /> Cross of Rope needs to act on the adjacent parcel's purchase, ~' <br /> <br /> <br />
