First off I want to say, This is the first time I've written <br />correspondence to any government entity so that is telling of my dedication and <br />interest in the following topic. <br />I have lived in Ramsey since my 1988 conception. I have seen Ramsey change <br />in ways I never expected or imagined but I have vowed to make Ramsey home <br />for my own Family. Until recently, when that has been under threat by my own <br />backyard being ripped and torn up for development of a school. The main thing <br />I love about this city is the balance between urban and rural. We enjoy the clean <br />streams, ponds and rivers here along with the plethora of wildlife within the <br />community but many in our city council and city hall want to erase that in <br />hopes of putting a few dollars into the city pockets, adding a pretty title on a <br />resume or luring more people here when we cannot even support the current <br />population. The proposed development of the new pact charter HS sits <br />approximately 1300' from my door and but just behind this site is a large <br />wetland and woodland which is at immense risk of being contaminated and <br />destroyed. The roads and paths in this area do not support the increased vehicle <br />and foot traffic that follow and The new woodlands neighborhood across the <br />street, full of young families and children are at risk with increased teen drivers <br />coming and going. I cannot stress enough that this proposed location would be <br />horrible for this community and I question the integrity and reasoning of anyone <br />supporting this cause. stand with your fellow residents and neighbors, we voted <br />you in for this exact scenario so I beg you, don't let me or this community <br />down. It's easy to vote for something happening in someone else's yard but <br />think of it as your own. I want to continue calling this city home but I also <br />stand by my word and conviction which means I will be leaving this city if this <br />
