The Fire Department has two stations <br />with intentions to build a third. The recently built fire station on Armstrong Boulevard is <br />less than a quarter of a mile from the RTC. The current equipment and staff should <br />continue to be adequate after the development of the RTC. The Department does not <br />foresee future needs until the completion of the third station. <br />The City of Ramsey feels that there is going to be a substantial level of commitment <br />necessary for the Ramsey Towne Center as it relates to the Public Works Department. <br />Due to the operational expectations of this area and impacts on the existing level of <br />service, the City expects that there will be a need for 3 to 4 additional Public Works <br />personnel to meet these increased demands such as: additional street maintenance, <br />additional mowing and park clean-up, snow removal instead of snow plowing, sidewalk <br />maintenance on a higher priority, additional street lighting with aesthetic banners, as well <br />as traffic signals. <br />The City also expects an increased impact to its equipment needs to perform these <br />additional and unique services such as banner hanging, replacement, and service, storm <br />sewer cleaning at a increased increment and snow removal. This includes an additional <br />sweeper due to the increased regularity of sweeping, sidewalk sweeper to keep the debris <br />and therefore particulates and floatables out of the storm sewer, vacuum truck to keep up <br />with the demands of catch basin cleaning and additional "snow removal" equipment with <br />conveyor to help with removal activities. Since the amount of responsibility for <br />maintenance is unclear at this stage, the above information is the City's estimate of the <br />needs that will accompany this project. <br />28-2 <br />
