Councilmember Haas Steffen inquired if the money in the park trust fund is still from the <br />landfill. <br /> <br />Finance Officer Lund responded that the park trust fund consists of monies from park <br />dedication and interest earnings. <br /> <br />Councilmember Zimmerman felt that the money from Apple Ridge should go to buy this <br />big park. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Haas Steffen and seconded by Councilmember Zimmerman <br />to recommend Council authorize the purchase of the land for the park with money first <br />from the Apple Ridge park dedication and then, if necessary, we could use the interest <br />earnings. If it becomes necessary to use something other than the Apple Ridge park <br />dedication and the park trust interest, then staff should bring back a case in 1999 to <br />discuss a financing plan. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Councilmembers Haas Steffen, Zimmerman, Beahen and <br />Beyer. Voting No: None. Absent: Mayor Gamec. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec arrived - 6:39 p.m. <br /> <br />Case #4: <br /> <br />Request for Acceptance of an Automatic Defibrillator Unit from the <br />State of Minnesota <br /> <br />Police Chief Gustafson stated that in November, the Department of Public Safety notified <br />the Police Department that they were selected to receive an automatic defibrillator unit. <br />In order to receive it, the Department of Public Safety requires an original resolution <br />from the governing body authorizing the acceptance of the unit. The document needs to <br />identify whom, within our agency, has the authority to sign off on the grant agreement. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Haas Steffen and seconded by Councilmember Beyer to <br />recommend Council adopt the resolution authorizing the acceptance of the grant award of <br />(1) Laerdal/Heartstream Automatic External Defibrillator from the Minnesota <br />Department of Public Safety for use by the Ramsey Police Department. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Haas Steffen, Beyer, <br />Beahen and Zimmerman. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Case #5: Review and Adopt 1999 Schedule of Rates, Fees and Charges <br /> <br />The Finance Committee was presented with a schedule of rates, fees and charges <br />proposed for 1999. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated he would like to review the schedule further, however, he would <br />like to go ahead with the utility fees as presented. The rates, other than utility rates, could <br />be adopted at a later date. <br /> <br />Finance Committee/December 8, 1998 <br /> Page 4 of 6 <br /> <br /> <br />
