How can we work together in each area of the state <br />to ensure wise investments are made? How can opportunities for. <br />local initiative be encouraged? How do we maintain and improve <br />our existing community facilities, meet our housing needs, and <br />provide energy supplies for all our necessary activities? <br /> <br />These and many similar questions went through my mind as I <br />prepared the Community Development Statement for the legislature. <br />In order to obtain a broader range of opinions and ideas, I have <br />scheduled six community development forums in different parts of <br />the state. At these forums, local elected officials and citizens <br />wilt be able to participate in discussing conraunity and economic <br />development issues facing Minnesota citizens in the 8Os. <br /> <br />The forum in your area will be on July 23, 1980 at ghe Anoka <br />Senior High School, 3939 - 7th Avenue, Anoka.
