It was utilized as Town Hall up until the <br />late 1970s, at which time the community outgrew the facility. The structure has been placed on the <br />historic registry, but has become squeezed by surrounding improvements. The facility currently sits <br />empty.

How do we best include the team <br />in the policy analysis? <br />Project No. RCP-24: Creating Identity (ZIP Code Plan) <br />The City currently shares a ZIP Code with the City of Anoka. The Post Office is located in Anoka. The Post <br />Office does not plan on adding new facilities in our community for the time being. However, sharing a <br />post office with Anoka creates a lack of identity for Ramsey, as official mail for Ramsey residents often <br />It is our mission to work together to responsibly grow our community, and to provide quality, cost-effective and efficient government services. <br />
