C 0 U N TY OF ANOKA <br /> <br />COURTHOUSE ANOKA, MINNESOTA 55303 612-421-4760 <br /> November 23, 1979 <br /> <br />MEMO TO: Anoka County Mayors and Township Chairpersons <br /> <br />FROM: Sam Walz, Director of Planning and Evaluation, Acting <br /> County Energy Assistance Coordinator <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Follow-up Request from Governor's Office <br /> <br />Approximately two months ago a request went out from the <br />Governor's Office asking each city and township to designate <br />an emergency housing shelter in their community. Apparently <br />a number of Anoka County municipalities did not receive that <br />request. <br /> <br />I, therefore, am enclosing the original request sent by the <br />Governor and'asking that your municipality designate an <br />emergencz housing shelter(s) at this time. Please forward <br />t:he requested information, including the phone number and <br />contact person with whom arrangements can be made to use the <br />designated shelter, to the County Sheriff with a copy to me. <br /> <br />As you may be aware, the County has established an Energy <br />Assistance Office. The Energy Assistance Office will <br />coordinate the various energy assistance programs within the <br />County. Low income County residents needing financial <br />assistance with their home heating bills should be referred <br />~o the Energy Assistance Offices which are located at the <br />Courthouse and our Columbia Heights Office. A third office <br />will be established at Riverwood School in Fridley after' <br />January 1, 1980. <br /> <br />As the governor requested, we have designated a 24-hour <br />emergency phone referral number. It will be the County's <br />general emergency number "427-1212". <br /> <br />I would appreciate receiving the requested information as <br />soon as possible. If you have questions, please contact me <br />at 421-4760, extension 1219. <br /> <br />SW:cg <br />Attachment <br /> <br />Thank you, <br /> <br />Sam Walz <br />Acting Energy Assistance <br /> Coordinator <br /> <br />Affirmative Action / Equal Opportunity Employer <br /> <br /> <br />
